The article discusses the divergent gameplay styles between Doom Eternal and the new installment, Doom: The Dark Ages. While Eternal favored mobility with platforming elements that split the fanbase, The Dark Ages adopts a more traditional 'stand and fight' approach. The introduction of a unique shield weapon allows players to absorb weaker enemy attacks, allowing them to focus on bigger threats. This shift back to a combat-heavy style emphasizes direct engagement over movement, restoring a more fluid and aggressive gameplay reminiscent of Doom 2016.
Doom: The Dark Ages embraces a combat style more akin to Doom 2016's 'stand and fight' as opposed to Doom Eternal's platform-heavy approach.
The shield in Doom: The Dark Ages changes gameplay fundamentally, allowing for strategic combat by soaking up attacks and facilitating focus on larger foes.
