Crank your damage to 1000 percent and Doom: The Dark Ages becomes a surprisingly good vacuuming simulator


A look at the thrill of meddling with Doom: The Dark Ages' settings.

The best thing I ever read about Jack Reacher - and I'm sure I've mentioned this before - is that the hero of Lee Child's books doesn't solve crimes or right wrongs. Playing through Doom: The Dark Ages again yesterday on a fresh runthrough and with some adjusted settings, I was surprised by how similar it felt to tidying up. Equally, if you want Doom: The Dark Ages not at its best, but at its closest to the act of vacuuming - I appreciate that is a weird thing to think/type/construct an article around - you want to go into the menus and tweak a bit.
