Resurrection of Evil adds in two new main features to the gameplay that the player can use throughout the game. The first, is a tool that was originally developed for Doom 3; "the Grabber". The Grabber, like the "gravity gun" from the competing game Half-Life 2, is a physics-based weapon that allows the player to pick up and move certain items. It also allows the player to catch fireballs and throw them back at the enemy. Resurrection of Evil has come under some criticism about the use of the Grabber due to the prior popularity of the similar weapon in Half-Life 2. The developers have commented that the tool was originally in Doom 3 before Half-Life 2, and was used to create "damaged" rooms; instead of building a ruined room, they would build a pristine room and use the grabber to "damage" it realistically.
One major difference between the Grabber and the Gravity Gun is that the Grabber has a limited charge, and thus can only hold onto an object for several seconds. Additionally, the Grabber creates a distortion effect that can obscure the player's vision when in use.
The Artifact
The Artifact
The second additional feature is the Artifact. When activated, the Artifact will slow down the player's perception of time into "Hell Time", giving the player increased speed and reactions compared to the monsters, similar to bullet time in the Max Payne games. Later additions to the Artifact's powers include near-unstoppable melee damage and temporary invulnerabilty, depending on the progress made through the game. All the available powers at that point are activated at the same time. The Artifact is considered to be the opposite of Doom 3's Soul Cube; whereas the Soul Cube was created by the Martian civilization to defeat Hell and is powered by the captured souls of demons, the Artifact was created by Hell and is powered by the captured souls of humans.
Another well received addition is the double-barreled shotgun. Essentially, it is the same as the regular shotgun, except it fires two shells at once, offering much greater stopping power. The downside is that with every shot, the weapon must be reloaded in order to be used again. It thus resembles the double-barreled Super Shotgun from Doom II.
Also in the expansion was the inclusion of three new monsters (Not counting boss creatures). The first new monster (also the first monster seen in the game) is 'The Forgotten', a Lost Soul-variant. It more closely resembles the Lost Souls from the original games, being a horned skull on fire without any cybernetic parts. The second addition is the Vulgar. It is closely related to the Imp, and behaves almost exactly like one. An interesting thing to note is the model used for the Vulgar was the original 'Archvile' model seen in early Doom 3 scans. The third new addition is the 'Bruiser'. At about the same size as a Hellknight, it has a computer moniter mounted on its face that constantly shows a pair of flashing jaws on its screen.
