It appears as though there is some confusion amongst the populace in regard to the lore of Doom 2016 and Doom Eternal. Allow me to clear this up for you...
1. DoomSlayer and Doomguy are two(2) entirely different people. Doom 2016 is a reboot of Doom 1, not a continuation from Doom 64. Doom Eternal will be a reboot of Doom 2: Hell on Earth. Doom 64 has nothing to do with Argent D’nur between the time he Doomguy goes to Hell and the time when he is captured. Therefore, they cannot be the same person as the timeline is completely broken.
2. DoomSlayer is not human. He is a humanoid with distinct human features, but he is a native of Argent D'Nur. He was once their king and the leader of the Night Sentinels.
3. After losing his son in combat, the anguished DoomSlayer made a pact with a demon priest to resurrect him and in turn transformed his son's soul into the Icon of Sin and causing Argent D'Nur to be subjugated by Hell. DoomSlayer is The Betrayer.
4. Some lesser minded individuals have come to the conclusion that DoomSlayer is actually Doomguy, who was left in Hell in Doom 64 and eventually discovered by the Night Sentinels during the First Age. This is obviously incorrect, as the inhabitants of the dimension he returns to (our dimension) are completely oblivious in regards to the existence of Hell (with the exception of certain high-ranking UAC personnel) . Such an idea is preposterous as the entire earth was destroyed and humanity was nearly wiped to extinction in Doom 2.
Note: Headcanons regarding "alternative dimensions" which resemble the original dimension in every conceivable way sans the demonic invasion are retarded and belong solely within the minds of the aforementioned lesser-minded folk.
Friendly reminder that it's been confirmed that Eddie Vedder recorded a song that plays during the Doom Eternal finale. It confirms the Doomslayer isn't the Doomguy
she forgot clerics usually have armor profiencies and went for robes always watch your AC folks
Liam Miller
Double cringe.
Probably because they wanted a throwback to the original games.
Lucas Foster
Op is a redditfag secondary. Only redditfags want Doomslayer to be a different guy because they have no attachment to the original games.
Caleb Price
based and cooperpilled I miss the Return threads on Yea Forums
Jordan Phillips
Are there really still going to be invasions in this? Its what decides whether I pirate the Switch port or buy the PC version
Jaxon Young
Damn. Does he confirm the ending is doomslayer getting his son back, only for him to ask what year it is and the screen going black while his son screams?
I like the new Doom game, but the lore is fucking awful. I think most of the creature designs are also bad.
Lucas Reed
I guess the developers are redditfags lol
Lucas Collins
Let's just call all continuity a throwback instead to justify believing that every game is a reboot. Eternal has a crucible sword, which is a throwback to the old game from back in 2016. But the game is a reboot, not a sequel. Just because something in a game directly follows from another game doesn't mean that it comes after.
Camden Rivera
The moment he fights angels and god the lord goes right into the trash and into shitty JRPG tier.
Elijah Anderson
This to be fair. Unless those angels are acyually just a different society of demons.
Asher Roberts
lol, Hugo's first and favorite Doom game was 64 and the beginning of 2016 is a direct follow-up to that game's ending. Cry and cope about it some more.

>Caring about Doom lore. Doomguy's main character trait in 2016 is not giving the slightest shit about what's going on.
Benjamin Myers
Wrong and cringe.
Just cringe.
Wyatt Nguyen
lolno play the game
William Price
>redditfag can only meme in response.
Typical. Now go back and stop making these retarded threads you fucking secondary.
Wyatt Bailey
Beat it last night, backing up Vega is the only action he showed that wasn't him being laser focused on fucking up Hell's shit.
James Gray
fuck off with your copypasta
Ian Cox
I'm gonna keep making the threads, and you will keep giving me your (you)s and you will keep enjoying it.
Cringe

>Assumptions THE NIGGER IS LITERALLY SITTING ON A THRONE. Hell claiming Doomguy is the betrayer is already an assumption because the Lore downright says Doomguy came afterwards.
Would be interesting if he turned out to be the Maurader, hell the Maurader even has a similar face to Icon of Sin, like father like son I guess.
