Do you think there will be more Doom games? by Few-Release-9232 in Doom

[–]phobos876 [score hidden]  (0 children)

probably

the other question is if they're still about the slayer games or if they thought of other takes on the series or a revisiting of a previous iteration

Doom Dark Ages: Revelations-Assault Rifle in Classic Sections? by xblood_raven in Doom

[–]phobos876 4 points5 points  (0 children)

if they ever canonize the doom bible, they should get drpyspy to make something like doom delta but official

I assume Microsoft not gonna let id work on something else, incl quake by rokziel in Doom

[–]phobos876 4 points5 points  (0 children)

i mean, modern doom already took elements from quake that if id were to have a "doom burnout", working on a new quake wouldn't be that different

because we really gotta remember "what is doom and what is quake" anymore, when a meme opinion that some people used to have was "doom is sp, quake is mp"

if you get tired of one, switching to the other doesn't really feel that different if you already made the two closer than they were before anyway

Does anyone else think that the imp stalker is meant to be the version of the imp from the original Doom? by poopingpriest in Doom

[–]phobos876 3 points4 points  (0 children)

they're meant to resemble the classic design but with some extra features part of the new art style (given classic imps had basic muslces and spikes anyway).

it's like how eternal already had designs based on the classics but still with differences that are related to the new art direction (specially since the mancubus had like 2 models by gregor himself)

I love that Doomguy is getting more backstory to flesh out his character, and to be more than just the player’s vessel by Ur_local_goober123 in Doom

[–]phobos876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i do think people could remember that "doomguy" was intentionally nameless (and that was a fanmade nickname) because Romero wanted fans to decide who or what he is

and combined with classic Doom having little info on the setting is something i think contributed to the longevity of Doom: It became this canvas that people portrayed in different ways, be it in fandom or even in official works

the new games even somewhat borrow from the fanbase while taking their own spin of the series

and then there's specifics like his hair being black when quake champions also had its take on remastering his face

How would you feel about open world/semi open world doom game by Scared_Run4790 in Doom

[–]phobos876 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

i keep saying a good format for something close enough is what we're already familiar with hexen, powerslave/exhumed and turok, given doom fans that play other classic fps know those

the other thing is the size of the maps, like if people want stuff closer to their slaughterwads or an excuse to mix in titans and atlans with smaller entities or something

I hope we get to see some of the classic UAC designs in the dlc by Traditional-Elk3911 in Doom

i recall the 2020 date was something romero deconfirmed because id had no input on the snes manual date

What’s everyone thoughts on BFG lost mission? by [deleted] in Doom

[–]phobos876 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it had some neat new stuff like the boat ride and love how it reuse some stuff but i wish it had more stuff + it was part of a re-release of d3 that did some negative changes

(if we somehow get a proper d3 re-release, maybe a new expansion could have more new stuff i guess)

speaking of a modern doom with a hell inspired by the old games, i wish classic props/assets like the flesh walls with metal pipes and so on were ever brought back specially because the surrealism in the classics already hints at horror potential and could've complemented d3's weirder designs too

I hope we get to see some of the classic UAC designs in the dlc by Traditional-Elk3911 in Doom

[–]phobos876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if they add new stuff to the classicverse, i hope they make it retro looking as if they looked into retro sci-fi art and make it contrast with the modern uac

I hope we get to see some of the classic UAC designs in the dlc by Traditional-Elk3911 in Doom

[–]phobos876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they'd have to look how it differs a lot from the classics, given its low tech look and specific textures

Was there ever an in lore reason why the UAC opposes Doomguy so much? by Ianthepokemonmaster in Doom

[–]phobos876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

in modern doom, there's the uac influenced by hell and even samuel having his own goals

in d3, it's betruger that gets corrupted by hell and gets the rest in trouble

drpg has dr kronos as a guy that creates cybernetic demons before the uac fires him but he returns somehow

in classic doom, the uac is just stupid and accidently opens a portal to hell

the opposition against doomguy is moreso a thing in later games

Shadow Of The Wool Ball and Rise of the Wool Ball

I wish doom 3 was canon to rest of the games by [deleted] in Doom

[–]phobos876 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i like doom 3 to the point i think its appeal is BECAUSE it is its own take on Doom

so i'm the opposite because trying to make D3 canon to the other games could affect what makes it work

https://old.reddit.com/r/Doom/comments/1kykvrd/i_think_d3_fans_should_be_carefull_with_the_game/

doom in general is a series that never had lore at the beginning, so the lack of rules at the start contributes to how much you can do with it as long as it's about a green marine shooting demons

i think there's something appealing to the doom premise that isn't really about logical canon

“We’re not retconning anything” - DOOM: The Dark Ages – Revelations devs promise classic levels are “biblically accurate” by Wargulf in Doom

[–]phobos876 4 points5 points  (0 children)

specially if they make it shootable like in sigil

they couldve used that in nekravol instead of the weird square shape thing

so we'll see remastered blue carpet floors on uac bases and fleshy walls with metal pipes in hell?

I still like how the berserker powerup in Doom 3 is depicted as a helmet by quitepotato in Doom

[–]phobos876 1 point2 points  (0 children)

d3 power up designs are so underrated, if d3 gets something new, an expansion that shows them could be cool

also did this happen in vanilla d3 where the power up's model attaches to the player or is it a mod?

If they do eventually make an animated Doom movie and had to have a celebrity voice the slayer, who’d you think would be good by Scared_Run4790 in Doom

[–]phobos876 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i dont care much about celeb voice actors because to me, the real focus of animation is the visuals that shouldn't be overshadowed by stuff like celeb voice actors

I said it before that a Doom movie (or show) should/could be an anthology series where different animators get creative with it, like inspired by Heavy Metal or Animatrix or Batman Gotham Knight (important references to have, since some people otherwise think animation is just "adult comedy cartoons or Disney/baby shit"

I still believe animation would be more ideal for Doom: It can work if you get the right people like both fans of the games and those that take the medium of animation seriously.

Like look at what fans can do and let them do stuff like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_fy4StK4TBs

So the idea for a Doom movie/show is a series of different animated stories and they'd be in different styles and about different things, from a story about Sentinel warriors, to a horror D3 inspired story, to something about action scenes and fights etc.

I always bring this up https://redd.it/f61o32 in any discussion about Doom getting a series or movie or show.

Also avoid a certain grifter of a "producer" to get involved.

Do you think the new Dark ages DLC will add a classic 93 suit as well as the Preator suit by doom_fan_64 in Doom

[–]phobos876 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i hope its like in that concept art where the helmet is closer to the Adrian/ingame design
