Are the yellow devil segments supposed to do so much damage

Just curious. It seems as if every second they are in contact with you, they register as a hit and take a huge chunk off of your life bar. In classic Megaman games (not sure if this was in MM1 since I haven't played it enough) where you "blink" after you get hit and can't take damage for a second.

In Doom the only way to have a projectile go past you AND do damage is to have it rip through you, so yes this is normal

Best bet is to run forward and take less damage. This is good for certain PUNKS, too.

I could never beat Punk! HE'S SO EVIL.

Indeed, the segments stun too so if you're hit once it does a LOT of damage.

I should try those bosses once... ive never beaten the stages for it quick enough.
Exept that i got to ballade once... i did something stupid and fell off the stage and died.

i just finished the game. damn the final boss was hard. but the ending was worth it, maybe we will get a "you know what" skin next time.
