Summary

  • A video article discussing the new Doom game, The Dark Ages, and its liberal use of slow-motion effects during melee and parry attacks, contrasting it with the previous game, Doom 3, and its lack of such features, but also the ability to mod the game to reduce or remove the effects.
  • The SlowMoBREAK mod does exactly what it says on the tin, removing slow-motion effects, but reducing the game speed slider will not work with this mod activated.
  • The game is more accessible than its predecessor, with plenty of options and sliders, but the slow-motion effects are here to stay unless using the mod.
  • The writer liked the game but preferred the original, and dislikes putting sugar in coffee, which is a metaphor for preferring games with no slow-motion effects.
