Ok so someone explain the end please. I can't wrap my head around it.
Also general Doom appreciation thread. This game was an actual masterpiece of killing and blowing shit up, with an interesting plot behind it.

DEMON PRESENCE AT UNSAFE LEVELS, LOCKDOWN IN EFFECT.
What part? The wraiths or the scene with Sam at the end?
Sam part, like is he evil?
>Sam is exploiting hell to solve an energy crisis on earth that no one else could solve
>UAC gets a global monopoly on argent energy, to the point where they're outright bottlenecking production to drive up their own prices.
>Oliva falls to demonic influence, starts a hellwave
>the game happens
>The argent tower is destroyed, Sam is pissed
>Sam takes the crucible, which contains a huge amount of hell energy, to continue production of argent energy which (he says) is meant to help earth
>Sam sends doomguy back to hell to do what he does, at least until someone fucks up and summons demons again
Sam isn't outright evil, but he's playing with fire and Doomguy hates it
>walk into the room before Icon of Sin
>door closes behind me
>fight the demons that spawn
>door doesn't open back up but I can continue
>jump down to an area before the room
>door opens back up
What the fuck is the point of having doors close behind you every 3 minutes if this happens
Ahh got it, that makes more sense, it's weird though. This whole time I had expected Vega or Sam to be the real actual threat. Especially the Vega level, there was something off about it. Doomguy even did a backup of Vega. Was that ever explained anyway I missed?
>Doomguy even did a backup of Vega. Was that ever explained anyway I missed?
Setup for a sequel. Remember Sam installed a tether in Doomguy's suit to teleport him too and from hell. Doomguy will probably activate Vega into his suit and have him tether him back to earth or mars.
Doomguy is a good guy and didn't want Vega to die.
No, that seems to be a plot thread for a sequel in case they need a Cortana-clone. Doomguy probably thought "Hey this guy is helping me kill him to stop the demons, might as well copy him just in case"
Is Doomguy the person who betrayed the night sentinels and got the wraiths and their world conquered?
no
I doubt it, since their ghosts were all saluting him after the hell golems boss fight
So who made Doomguy's suit? I remember one of the stone's saying it was the retch who shall not be named. Is that the guy who betrayed the wraiths?
Future Sam did it
Sam isn't evil but he made some terrible decisions. He knew Olivia was going crazy and of the demonic rituals were going on well before the hellwave happened.
The Betrayer, one of the demons who defected.
Will there be a DOOM II That recalls the events of Doom 2?
Like, how fucked do you have to be to hear your friendly AI assistant speak like a cult leader or talk in demon language and not try to stop shit from going down
Game is trash either way
To keep retards from backtracking 5 rooms after every fight because they got turned around
So what boss fights are you expecting in D55M?
>7 deadly sins
>Samuel Hayden with the crucible
>Samuel Hayden when YOU have the crucible
>The Betrayer
>Icon of sin ala Brutal Doom
The deadly sins is interesting but I can't see how it'll be manifested into some hideous rendition of them.
I think it'll be more
>Cyber Demon on Roids
>Demonized Samuel Hayden (no choice, the demons infected his software, he isn't willing like Olivia was)
>icon of sin
>a demon that'll immediately give you the beserk power up to combat, something like a cacodemon that splits with every final blow
It might not sound good but it could be interesting
i think doomguy will fight hayden not because he gets demonically corrupted but because doomguy is PISSED OFF that hayden betrayed him.
It will probably be right as hayden is about to solve the demon problem forever or something, causing a disaster and setting up Doom 6
That sounds likely, Samuel will no doubt be the final battle, set in a giant Argent room or something.
I don't know about designs but I got mechanics:
>Sloth slows you if you don't dodge his projectiles
>Greed steals ammo per second
>Wrath constantly berserks you but you can't glory kill health during the fight
>Gluttony gives you ammo but the more you have, the more you are slowed
>Envy strips upgrades from your weapon and uses them
At least those are the ones I came up with.
I want this cheeky fuck back
That's not bad, I could see it
I find it interesting how that moment is probably the only one in which Doomguy doubts.
It's as if he considered vega his pal or something.
Well, taking into account that DOOM doesn't even recall the events of Doom 1 I very much doubt it.
>hell invading mars not recounting the events of hell invading mars
I want to see his Nu-Doom form.
I love the Nu-Mancubi, screaming jetpack skeletons of death, Barons, Cacodeomons, lost souls and Pinkies.
Same, I was really hoping they would get back to that but I guess we'll have to wait, I was also waiting for a big reveal of Vega being bad because the level name
>I am Vega
Can't sound harmless, and the way he insisted you do everything he said was weird and creepy
Am i the only one who feels like the design of boss battles was influenced by Ys games?
Half of Cyberdemon's moveset is from Pictimos
Yeah, I also thought Vega would be setting some kind of trap, it's almost depressing in a way.
Different events, the timeline is straightforward, game after game.
This isn't a retelling of doom1, this is the marine from doom1 and doom2, after being stuck in hell for ages, in a new and happy adventure after doom 3.
>is he evil?
Doctor (6) Samuel (6) Hayden (6)
S.Hayden
WHO KNOWS
This is some HL3 logic user.
>Doomguy actually makes a backup of Vega before destroying it
Last thing i've expected from him.
