I mean instead of just going straight he bends them to follow the target...and Bruce Wayne dodged them for crying out loud.
I dunno, either Darkseid is a Bat fanboy (hard to believe) or his beams are just super slow.
He brags about them to instill fear even though he knows they are so slow an average human could dodge them until they got winded. He probably bends them hoping he can ensnare a target with the beams like webbing and then hit them with them.
