The latest Doom The Dark Ages game from id Software features a lot of Frank Miller. Hugo Martin, the game director, claims that three of Miller’s creations served as major inspirations for Doom: The Dark Ages: the film adaptation of 300, the groundbreaking Batman comics Year One and The Dark Knight Returns.
Year One’s influence might be clear: the Doom Slayer’s genesis story takes place in the Dark Ages. Martin stated at a press conference this week that the unstoppable assault of Leonidas fighting his way out of the Hot Gates in 300 and the thick, monster truck-like Batman in The Dark Knight Returns both served as inspiration for the Slayer’s heavier, more powerful look.
Doom The Dark Ages- New Update
Previous Dooms also have a big influence on Doom: The Dark Ages. It’s a nod to the original Doom from 1993 and a response to how gamers reacted to Doom Eternal in 2020. The Dark Ages seeks to make players feel like an iron tank heavy, powerful, yet swift in contrast to Eternal, which made troupes feel like a fighter plane or a Ferrari because of its emphasis on quick movement and acrobatics. This time, you have to stand your ground and fight in addition to strafing and shooting.
Martin and Doom The Dark Ages executive producer Marty Stratton gave players a preview of the game on Thursday, taking them through the mediaeval setting and design objectives of the most recent Doom game.
The Shield Saw, which is essentially what would happen if you added a ring of demon-slicing chainsaw teeth to Captain America’s physics-defying shield, is the first of several new tools and principles that players will need to learn in The Dark Ages, according to Martin.
The devs compare the Doom The Dark Ages‘ arsenal to cruel, antiquated torture devices, describing it as having “the most powerful weapons we’ve ever created.”
Id Software is aiming for spectacle with Doom The Dark Ages in addition to customised difficulty and variation. Players would take charge of the 30-story mech known as the Atlan and ride on the back of a dragon in some stages, according to the developers, who also promised larger-than-ever battlefields and enormous sandbox play areas.
