It's Friday, and that means the latest episode of Expert Reacts on EXP has arrived, and it's time to STAND AND FIGHT in DOOM: The Dark Ages.

It's Friday, and that means the latest episode of Expert Reacts on EXP has arrived, and it's time to STAND AND FIGHT.

DOOM: The Dark Ages is here, featuring an all-new arsenal of Medieval(ish) weapons to play with, including the thunderous Chainshot, the lever action/demon claw flintlock hybrid Super Shotgun and the already iconic and utterly brilliant Skullcrusher Pulverizer. Plus, Jonathan even has time to cast an eye over a set of building-sized Titan-killing weapons and a cybernetically-enhanced Dragon. All in a day's work for the Doom Slayer.

Don't forget, as an Extended Episode patron you get an extra long episode with a bunch of extra content, a week earlier than the main feed, and it's ad-free. Smashing.

The bit is great, Dave.

They killed it with almost every weapon here, but I can't help but feel a little disappointed in the plasma rifle variants; the plasma shards just don't feel as good as the energy spheres of old.

Juno Milizé

so the timeline (from the slayer's perspective) is: Doom -> Doom 2 -> TNT Evilution -> The Plutonia Experiments -> Doom 64 -> The Lost Levels -> Doom The Dark Ages -> Doom 2016 -> Doom Eternal

Absolutely agree that this is even more metal than Eternal, but it's also even more gothic!

Was actually wondering if the music you'd been using was original but forgot to ask last week, great work by Chris - love your soundtrack!

Brandon Armitage

I know a decent amount of the Doom lore but to make the lore super simple the demons of Doom 2 kill his pet rabbit. They f***ed around and are now finding out.

Bastion Gray

Sorry, gonna skip all Doom-Posts in solidarity for Mick Gordon. Straton is a lying [illegitimate son]!

Its crazy that they keep the skull gun secret from the populace. They must keep The Slayer’s finishing moves a secret too lol
