If you’re a fan of parrying in games, two exciting new titles offer great experiences: Doom: The Dark Ages and Clair Obscur: Expedition 33. These games differ greatly — Doom is a high-speed first-person shooter, while Clair Obscur is a turn-based fantasy RPG — but both feature innovative parry mechanics. In Doom, the Doom Slayer wields a massive shield that can block projectiles and enemy attacks, highlighted by a neon green signal indicating parry opportunities. Successfully timing a parry results in a dramatic slow-motion shield bash, providing a satisfying and critical combat advantage that opens up chances for counterattacks with punches or powerful weapons. Keep an eye out for green glints to expertly time your parries in the heat of battle.
