It chases the player all over the map, and it soaks up lots of damage before going down. Now, the Hell Knight is the first demon the player faces that is truly difficult. These can be annoying-especially Imps-but taking them down is not a lot of effort. Early in the game, players fight relatively easy enemies, like the Possessed and Imps. The Cacodemon can attack both in close range and from a distance, making it annoying to deal with. Like almost everything else in Doomits frightening looks are not just for show. The Cacodemon is a massive demonic head with a huge, fanged maw and a single green eye. They can become annoying, of course, and some of them require a strategy instead of just going in guns blazing.
These are the demons that make the game a heart-thumping delight to play.
Some of them will not go down after taking a rocket launcher blast, after all, and might even charge the player. That said, the demons in the game can be quite a challenge to take down.
The gameplay is frenetic, and standing still or trying to camp is likely to get the player killed more often than not. The game is a back-to-basics version of the franchise, with a simple plot, lots of demons to fight, and lots of weapons to use to fight them.
