DOOM: The Dark Ages will allow players to make demons less aggressive in the settings

The goal of the shooter's development is to make it as widely accessible as possible. Compared to earlier id Software projects, DOOM: The Dark Ages will offer a great deal more customization. The studio's aim, as stated by executive producer Marty Stratton, is to make the game accessible to as many people as possible.

Players will have the ability to customize various aspects of the game, including altering the enemies' difficulty and damage, changing the projectiles' speed, adjusting the amount of damage they take, and modifying other elements such as the game's tempo, aggression level, and parry time. This level of customization ensures that players can tailor their experience to their preferred style of play.

Stratton also assured fans that the plots of DOOM: The Dark Ages and DOOM: Eternal can be understood without having played DOOM: The Dark Ages, making it easier for new players to jump into the series.
