Upon emerging from the cave, our presenter was attacked by more foes. Because he'd built up adrenaline from the previous fight, he was able to slow down time and deliver deadly blows to both his attackers near instantly. After his frenzy subsided, he killed another enemy warrior by throwing a barrel at him, and then he kicked a zombie into some nearby spikes to show how the environment would play a huge role in combat.
This factor was especially driven home in the boss fight against the huge spider at the end of the dungeon. The spider was fast and aggressive, but no match for the giant concrete blocks hanging from the ceiling by ropes. The presenter simply got some space between himself and the spider, then cut a rope as the spider shambled across the room toward him. The falling block did major damage, and it was only a matter of time before the arachnid crumpled.
