I mean, seriously, how the fuck?
What IS he?
play the fucking game
I know, but how the fuck does he.... Be what he is?
play the game
He's something of a reincarnation of the OG Doomguy, but given godlike powers from the Sentinels
he IS the OG doomguy
I hate the power level wankery that's spawned from the recent doom games
After taking a cycle of space angel steroids
please enlighten me how
pretty much yeah
He is doomdoom
a marine
semper fi
I know, but how the fuck does he do what he does?
They turned "just a guy" into "the chosen one"...is fucking boring and generic.
He points the gun at the thing and shoots the trigger
Luck, maybe pure will, definitely a little psychotic, I mean in 2 part of his rage was because his pet was killed and in 64 he stays in hell to stop the demons from coming back
A franchise that us well overstaying it's welcome.
He the original Doom Marine he’s just has loads more experience, tools, powers and space angel demigod drugs pumping through him.
He's le epic mememan
I really enjoyed Doom Eternal, but the whole deification of the doomguy thing is cringe overload. It was kind of endearing at first to see the demons afraid of him - that's funny. But all this retarded overuse of rip and tear, the godlike powers he was given, giving him a fucking voice and showing his backstory. The writers obviously thought that angle was a lot cooler than it actually is, but then that's just my opinion. Maybe Doomguy's power level exploding to 100,000,000 while his armor shreds off from his rippling biceps and he grows angel wings but actually they're demon wings because his dad's a demon and his hair turns long and blonde and he shoots a beam of energy that LITERALLY destroys mars from his super cool energy master sword is cool to some people.
I don't think he's the chosen one at all, actually. He wasn't "Prophesied" to do anything. He's just a man who happened to be capable of fighting hard enough to become a legend
OG Doomguy took the canon Doom 64 route until he was picked up by another dimension screaming about demons, and got reforged into becoming a champion of a warrior society of humans that eventually settled on Earth. Boss lady angel got wind of Hell dimension, thought that taking their energy was some GOOD SHIT, and started making plans. One subordinate of boss lady thought this was fucked up and cringe, and decided to transfer his awesome angel powers into Doomguy for shits and giggles. Doomguy gets pumped up even more to god-like power and takes on the moniker of Doomslayer, until he got knocked out by a trap set up by demons, resulting in UAC of another timeline to pick him up, also head by former angel that transferred his power to him because he felt he probably needed him to punch demons in the face. Thus begins DOOM 2016.
a blank sleeve for the player to fill, it's really not complicated
He's hella f*cking epic
why does it look like this is a gif converted to a jpg?
Pa human augmented with fancy alien magitech,
There is both a codex page and an in game cutscene explaining this.
Reddit space man, gifted the power of mary sue and epic references...
He is still just a guy, Samuel just pranked the Kahn giving him Godmode
i just miss when he was just a dude so angry he can not die
demons cant handle his epicstyle
megatextures
>Original Doomguy was a lone marine who literally goes to hell and kills mulitudes of demons
>Does this again
Thats just Doom 1 and 2. The power level wankery has always been fucked, and thats the way I like it. As long as Doomguy doesn't fly or sprout super sayain hair, I'm good.

The player character in a difficult video game cannot be a Mary Sue in terms of combat effectiveness because their competency is directly connected to the player's skill. I mean, if you're playing on I'm Too Young To Die, then maybe, but that's kinda your own fault
they didn't make him the chosen one, he was literally so fucking capable that they decided to give him space steroids. his accomplishments made him, not his origins
OH
if you read all the garage ass infodumps with weird ass words every 2 sentences and figure out what they mean then you shall find out that he was a human who won a gladiator battle in the priests' planet so they gave him superpowers to deal with a big ass enemy, and his rambling caused them to investigate the world where he was from so it was the doomguy himself who brought the scourge of khan maykr to earth.
>Mario is just a plumber who literally kills dinosaurs and saves the entire mushroom kingdom
The difference between
>your main character is a guy who can win in an unlikely situation
and
>your character is a shonen anime character
Is 100 scenes of expository dialogue
I'm a 6ft 5in giant who is also a fat fuck. Brown hair, blue eyes, glasses. That's good enough for your critique.
This is what I'm talking about.
I like to write, and I always do this with my characters. Y'know, making their accomplishments define them, not their origins.

Post body, f-faggot...
This, I swear people make up stuff just to be mad at it
show us your books George R.R. Martin
Pretty much. It's like they never played the game

You know having gains doesn't save you from autism..
Right? Exactly what I'm saying haha. I'm bi btw
No. I don't write books, I write little concepts. I'm not a very good writer, though.
aslong as you enjoy it. :)
TRANNY GET YE GONE
haha i'm gay xd
I do, thanks. asl?
I mean, my main writing problem comes from my bad grammar.
He IS DOOM.
Fuck you. You're not me.
>baby brother played doom when he was like 6-7 around the time it was released because it was on my computer
>for the next year straight he just wants to be as angry as doomyguy and kill demons
>A fucking kid was running around the house making chainsaw noises and humming E1M1
>Parents weren't religious but seriously thought he was going to turn out demented
Love you bro hope you got to play eternal in heaven
YIKES! XD
You should purchase the game, it's not even in a lore log, it's shown to you.
There was a prophecy but it was one of ruination rather than salvation, and it might not have even been about him.
He literally IS the OG doomguy. They literally have a cutscene of him in the old armor
Cringe all you want I'm drinking it's his anniversary and eternal keeps making me think of him
Sorry senpai. That's a nice memory, sounds like a hilarious kid to have around.
You should post it on reddit for more sympathy, maybe you'll farm some great updoots too.
