Why do we have to pick every weapon through the game every game? I mean, i know why, progress and learning curve, but did idsoftware or a fan ever came with lore to explain it?
Here's what I've been thinking: It seems obvious the demons would have taken away from him but they left the praetor suit near him so would be consistent to leave the weapons too, not because it's his belongings, but perhaps to avoid the most remote possibility of other creatures (hell eats other dimensions) going apeshit on hell with them like he did, but there was no weapons near the praetor, so perhaps all the equipment he had broke down like every gun without maintenance does, except the suit because was forged "by a wretch". So when he got trapped, he only had the crucible, and since we couldn't use it as a weapon in the last game, it looks like he forgot how it works, but since it appears in his visions along demon runes, it's more likely that a demon tried to erase his memory as to not go for it as soon as he wake up
Thoughts?
How does the doomguy loses his weapons before the game?

i think he just threw his weapons and then picked up new weapons
DOOMGUY is like 160lbs
He has to lug around over 60LBS of weapons each game, plus ammo.
You're putting too much thought into a game with next to no thought put into story/lore until recently.
He was lured into a trap, and knowing what attracts the doom slayer he probably was hunting them down till the last moment before the sleep prison
Yeah it's his arsenal, tools for an revenge. He wouldn't just abandon his tool without reason
I know i know its doom, they did say that 'plot in vidya was as important as in porn'. But as you said, more recently, it got a deeper and interesting story and it would be nice to fill the gaps.
>Yeah it's his arsenal, tools for an revenge. He wouldn't just abandon his tool without reason
Yes he would, DOOMGUY doesn't trust his life to a weapon. They're an extension of his malice, not the source.
>these muscles at 160 lbs
Pretty sure his above 220 lbs unless he's a midget.
Guns used by Doomguy break eventually.
Even still, that's a fuckton of weight to be carrying around on a planet like Mars.
who the hell cares god fucking damnit kill yourself
>mfw I'm an inch bigger and 20 lbs heavier than doomguy
>60LBs of weapons
Nigga the minigun alone without ammo weighs more than that.
>1st game: Marine regiment ambushed and drop ships destroyed
>Doom 2: Limited space on deep pod Doomguy idea to get back to earth, can only fit handgun
>Doom 3: Different doomguy entirely
>DOOM: Literally sealed away by demons
What about Doom 2 to Doom 64?
I thought Doom 64 was just a port of doom 2
>Mars
>Gravity is less than 0.4g
It's true, it's an assload of crap to carry around EACH game.
That's probably his martian weight.
Doom 64 is a completely new game and a direct sequel to Doom 2 and its ending leads into Doom 2016.
See Doom 1, literally ame scenario
*same
S key broke
Whoever wrote that text doesn't know basic human anatomy. Doomguy has muscles of a pro heavyweight bodybuilder.
>Doom 64 ending leads into Doom 2016
Is this true?
I mean that it wouldn't make sense for him to leave they behind AS LONG as they are functional.
It’s probably because you haven’t been empowered by the seraphim to have and endless rage, unbreakable will, and the strength to cleanly rip a horn out of a fuck huge demons skull.
>Ooops! I DROPPED my equipment!
Obviously, maybe one day I'll find the seraph.
Anyone have the pic of the kawaii guy Doomgal fanart from DOOM?
His name is Doomslayer.
t. demon
power armor bro. If it’s anything like power armor from other games it most likely has gyros and it’s own exoskeleton that supports more weight.
not to mention he’s not a normal human assuming he is human. he was granted extreme power
The power armor is weighted too, they explain that in the dossier.
Well, he ended up entombed in a Sarcophagus, so whoever put him in there probably disarmed him. Is it that hard to fathom?
In the smallest way possible.
Doomslayer is the OC character from DOOM (2016) and he is unrelated to Doomguy the original character from DOOM and DOOM II
is it confirmed that the icon of sin is the doomslayers son or is that just a theory?
It's John Romero
Except it has been confirmed that they're the same person.
Yeah i don't think it's bad for writings or gameplay, honesgly wanted an hear your theories and opinions
genuinesadness.jpg
yeah and i confirmed that my Trumpman OC is the president
Doomguy vs Quakeguy, who would win in a fight?
Yes, becuase his suit was there with him. Why take the small guns and leave the most powerful with him. That suit has a tech that allows him to suck life from everything he kills and heal his body. He can beat hell with his fist in that thing. (Not that DOOMGUY would need it)
If you're playing properly, he loses the before each level.
If the demons captured Doomguy, why didn't they just kill him?
kek
literally who? is that like Doomslayer's brother?
here’s a question. if the demons were able to take the doomslayers armor then why the fuck did they leave it where he could find it. why didn’t they throw it into the endless chasm literally five feet away from the tomb
Based and pistol-startpilled
Who would in in a fight? Dante from Devil may cry or Gene from Godhand
Gene because his power is canonically broken-tier.
>literally who?
What has this place become?
Lore fags fuck off its cunts like you that ruin doom and make gaming as a whole worse you are to blame for 2 weapon limits you are to blame for aim down sights you are to blame for jelly screen so real I'm so glad doom eternal is doing everything it can to stay a game and not be immersive
what is he like some kind of boomer pro doom player? sorry i don't keep track of all your ecleb shit.
The armour was created by a wretch far into his onslaught. His armour is yet another tool and not essential.
Weak bait, if you're serious though he was one of the guys who designed the original Doom.
4/10 because you got a bite
Here's a (You)
>6 feet tall and beefy as fuck
>only 180lbs
That's not how that works
he loses it for shits and giggles. scatters them everywhere for fun after slaughtering 1000s out of sheer boredom, and then picks them up again just because it makes him laugh.
Why does doom makes me so happy bros?
pretty good game

"Keep you enemies closer". Serious now, that goes into demons and magic and would be harder to come to one satisfying explanation. Maybe they wanted to keep and eye on him. Maybe trying to kill him would break the spell bedore he died. Maybe they didn't wanted to mess with watch they didn't understand. Maybe the one who's waiting for you will prove untrue then what will you do. Maybe they thought that if they trowed the armor away it woud detect the distance and teleport or self destruct and release the marine's anger in 50 megaton explosion. Its demons, they are superstitious it could be anything. The question here is not if his lost his other weapons, but HOW did it happen
Duke Nukem, Serious Sam, and Quake are all superior to Doom. Prove me wrong. You can't.
Because plays like a natural and healthy behaviour for a man. You feel in place. Better than everyone, killing righteously, saving everyone, fueled by intense anger.
>Duke Nukem
Shit level design apart from the urban areas.
>Serious Sam
Pretty dumb, even for a first person shooter. You just unload on hordes of enemies who rush you. Also, clunky humor.
>Quake
Great multiplayer, mediocre singleplayer apart from Quake II.
it's a video game
Because they already killed him in Doom 1 and he just woke up in Hell and started killing demons again.
dncornholio
or iddqd
last in was also meant for
>is it confirmed that the icon of sin is the doomslayers son or is that just a theory?
It's a misinterpretation of Doom 2016's lore. The Icon of Sin is the son of the Betrayer. Doomguy is not the Betrayer, however.
6'/180lb is basically your average MMA Middleweight fighter, but that includes weight cuts pre-fight, so add another 20 pounds for walking weight and that's close to being pretty accurate.
No shit! Here i was thinking i was watching a documentary on Dante's artwork
Probably lost em when Hayden warped him at the end of the first. He also probably ditched or modified his armor because of Hayden's fuckery with it.
Its the same guy
DOOM Guy: What we call him
Doom Marine: What the UNSC calls him
Doom Slayer: What demons call him
They're not powerups you dumb fuck, they're just guns. This isn't samus.
Why is everyone retarded but me?
>Unless he's a midget
He's 6ft tall I think
maybe it's his weight as measured on mars
>Lore fags fuck off its cunts like you that ruin doom and make gaming as a whole worse

He's strong enough to rip a demon is half, he can probably carry that shit like it's nothing
DOOMGUY is sci-fi's video game cornerstone. Him being supernaturally gifted is kind of a lorebreaker. It'd be like Heero Yuy being a cyborg or something, it would just shatter the suspense.
In the original Doom he may as well have been.
Because plot armor.
Friendly reminder Doomguy's real name is William Joseph Blazkowicz III
Guns unlike his hands run out of ammo, obviously for being in hell for so long he ran out of ammo and had to fight with his barehands. He had no more weapons so obviously they just locked him and his stupid suit up.
Demons drops ammo and
>stupid suit
UAC probably took his weapons when they found him, there wasn't really anyhting special about them like his suit or him.
>nothing special about the BFG
>coincidentally gets another BFG again anyways
I just realized that his praetor suit was forged in fucking hell. That shit must be harder than steel.
The Praetor Suit was a reverse-engineering of Doomguy's outfit with the UAC Elite Guards as a base. Doomguy's outfit in Eternal is the OG armor but upgraded by the Betrayer.
why did doomguy modify his helmet's visor display to look like a mobile game?
Every brain cell not worried about counting bullets it's a brain cell calculating the next move
180 on mars is 473 on earth, according to
livescience.com
doomguy confirmed brainlet
I'd like to see the story behind that
Anyone played the Japanese Community Project doom wad?
Those nips have some great maps. Except for a couple which are just cunty.
you nuDoom faggots are a fucking embarrassment
>he says as he impotently cries into the ether
They're the same person.
the fact he can carry like 9 different weapons at the same time implies its just a video game and you should stop thinking so much about this
>mediocre singleplayer apart from Quake II.
Shit taste, the only good thing about Quake II's singleplayer is the soundtrack.
As we are on a Doom lore thread, does he die at the end of episode 1 in Doom 1 or does he just blacks out and wakes up in episode 2 ?
Shut up, bitch.
>trying to use logic in an arcadey style shoot-em-up
Dumbass.... it's like trying to explain why one's car is able to travel cross country without ever having to refill on gas in Out Run.
>a made up person is the same as a real person, as confirmed by some guy
>a character in a sequel is the same as the identical character in the original, as confirmed by the owners of the IP
If you think these things are even remotely comparable, you're a fucking subhuman.
Why couldnt I keep the helmet showing on the screen.
Any upcoming wads that look interesting?
