The Doomslayer's backstory is purposefully vague as fuck as to where he comes from and that's the only "Cue" you're given outside of shit that would be considered a cheeky easter egg in any other game, including Doom 3. If Doom 3's release was surrounded by the same bunch of turbonerds grasping at every straw possible to place the original Doomguy in the storyline then we'd have this same idiotic multiverse theory going on back in 2004 desperately trying to explain that actually the Doom 3 guy isn't REALLY a reboot of the same character because the regular Doomguy existed in the lore and actually that thing on the tablet wasn't just an Easter egg! You're going into a *REBOOT*, the kind of media most likely to contain references and similarities to the original, and picking out every single similarity to the original as definitive proof of your claim when every single one of them can be explained as the game being a reboot and recycling old lore. That's confirmation bias.
