Shall I compare thee to a serrated blade?
I remember being vaguely horrified when I first heard aboutDoom Eternal’s meat hook.
A lot, it turns out.
Let me count the ways.
Doom Eternal is an exhilaratingly different kettle of demon fish to Doom (2016).
In its virgin state, the meat hook is a delightful addition to the Doom Slayer’s arsenal.
Your rockets ain’t got nothing on my meat hook, you mancubus scum.
It’s a great traversal tool, but that’s not why it’s brilliant.
I mean, Super Shotgunning a demon in the face is already brilliant, but doing it in slow-motion?
That’s probably the smuggest power move in the history of the series.
But wait, it gets better.
It is, as they say, a chefkiss.gif.
But that’s not even the best part.
Remember what I said earlier about using your flamethrower to replenish your armour?
How wrong I was.
“Does it have a meat hook?”
Because that is what a game’s signature weaponshouldbe, I think.
