  • Anti-Climax Boss: Out of all the bosses The Great Old One really pushes this button. Unlike the other bosses that move around and will chase you. The Old One will sit there and spawn enemies and shoot fire balls. Honestly many gamers just run up to the boss and wack it with the axe since it’s easier than strafe running.
  • Best Level Ever: Antarctica’s E2M9 Outpost 31. Essentially The Thing in a video game complete with introducing Thingy, a huge shout out to the film!
  • Demonic Spiders: Hell Bats and their brethren Eye Bats. They shoot small annoying projectiles and will usually come in two or threes. In hell however Soul Eaters spawn Eye Bats constantly and usually have a room full will trickle your health down faster than you’d think. Plus if you use the axe upgrade for healing you’ll get a measly 2hp back.
  • Game-Breaker: Two guns actually especially if you allocate your upgrade points.
    • The Harvester is a four barrel shotgun that shoots out four times the amount of damage of the regular shotgun. Which is equivalent to a rocket launcher. Several bigger enemies will fall to the gun with two shots.
    • Ultra Sonic Rocket Launcher, picture a Rocket Launcher firing so fast that you’re essentially firing an assault rifle. Most larger enemies will fall before even retaliating.
  • Heartwarming Moments: Despite their apparent deaths seeing your old player characters (Duke Nukem, Doomguy, Serious Sam etc) it is nice to see them all getting recognized for being badasses in their own right. Most are hidden away simply because the hordes of demons are scared of them.
  • Most Wonderful Sound: Let’s face it the cocking of the shotgun still gets you ready to fight the denizens of hell.
  • Nightmare Fuel: Honestly there’s plenty of disturbing imagery in the game but seeing the other FPS heroes being killed will genuinely get to some gamers. Seeing them impaled, hung, or otherwise is not a fun image for old school fans.
