There was actually one earlier room (I forget which one) where I managed to miss a secret like this :v:

There aren't enough Berserk power-ups in Doom 2016, and it's a shame because it looks fun as hell to use. Also, I read that the Duma nearly unanimously passed a law legalizing domestic abuse to a certain extent, so that horrific saying seems to have a lot of sway over in Russia.

No, you can't partially legalize something. It's still illegal, but it's decriminalized, meaning that it's now an administrative (i.e. minor) offence. This new law, while not legalizing domestic abuse, is horrible on too many levels for me to cover off the top of my head

If the specter's invisibility is psionic it probably just means they make other things think the specter is invisible, instead of bending light or whatever.

While those were lectures and discussions, not theses, they were on advocacy techniques (useless as they may be in the Russian courts) and I'm a litigator, so the answer to your question, in a way, is "yes" :black101:

Yeah, if the Doom Slayer really wanted "impenetrable" armor, those mentioned old Nokia phones is what it should've been made out of. I'm still using an early 2000's Nokia and aside from a slightly scratched up screen, it's still working flawlessly.

I still have mine somewhere, too. I wonder if the rebooted Nokia 3310 is like that, too (probably not)

The way the Hell levels recreate some of the old Doom textures is a nice touch. I think I recognised the gothic room with the four slabs, too.

Did the big spinny wheels actually do anything after you unlocked both switches? I wondered if they were going for a Hexen-style clock tower motif. Did the figures on the ceiling animate?

Also the Hellguards felt like the only monsters in the game that had... I won't say unfitting, but surprising designs. Strip away the fireballs and they'd feel like an HL1 enemy, what with the bulbous bioluminesence and biotech power armor they've got going on.

I think this was one of two places where I actually got killed. Or possibly the only one, it's starting to be a while since I played the game.

If anything, what irked me most about the Hellguards was the sloppy sliding animations. Which could entirely have been circumvented if the Hellguards had some sort of rolling orbs attached to their legs so they would be sliding along on something sensible than these elephantine meaty stumps for legs.
