Doom Guy

>>7774378
I seriously hope you guys don't do this.

Doomnigger

will we ever know just who the fuck this bloke is

He never actually had a name in the old game, he's just called "a marine" in official stuff. However, you can find evidence that people have called him Doom Guy since the 90s in old internet.

>>7774415
where is it from?

>>7774378
But "DoomSlayer" is a lot more fun to say if you're doing a Dr. Claw impression.
>tfw it no longer stands for "big fucking gun" in the new games :(

>>7774415
your coop buddy

>>7774378
It's Flynn Taggart.

>>7774490

doomguy

>>7774378
the company that owns doom call him the Doom Slayer. your opinion is literally the one that doesnt matter.

>>7774937
everyone here should pitch in to buy you, you will be known as nigger and your opinion of it won't matter

>>7774378
I prefer "Doom dude" or "Doom guy"

I name it trannyeradicator on zandronum servers

>>7774378
id man

>>7774415
He's the actual Doomguy. The guy front and center in the poster gets killed, he's the sole survivor.

>>7774945
Seethe more. It's Doom Slayer in the canon now and to those who own the rights, and your fanfiction changes literally nothing. Entire generations interacting with the game for the first time with 2016 and Eternal will only know and say Doom Slayer, and it will be like a spike in your asshole every single time

>>7774963

>>7774378
His name is William J Blazkowicz III. You can call him Doom guy if you want.

Hello, Mr. Nigger

>>7774971
Are you a Zenimax shareholder, Mr. Nigger?

>>7774378
doomguy is not inclusive enough, we are living in 2021 hellooooooo, what about a non-binary name such as doomperson?

>>7775115
>helloooooooo

I fucking lost it there lmao

>>7774378
same with calling this guy "Ranger", of course

>>7774378
If you don't call him Our Hero, you never beat doom 2

>>7774441
Obviously. Why the fuck do you retards think the game was called "Doom"? Pop quiz, what's the name of the guy from Duke Nukem? "DukeSlayer"?

>>7774378
Of course, he's not the Doom Slayer at the point depicted by the image. It's not until he walks the umbral planes, with terrible power and speed bestowed upon him by the seraphim, that those who taste the bite of his sword give him that name.

i thought he was space marine. according to duke nukem at least

>>7774970
>>7774769
The real Doomguy is the PoV of the art. See the gun at the bottom middle?

>>7775154
you have a very low standard of humour

>>7774378
doomgay

>>7775782
omg you are right
Even the demon at the bottom left is looking at the doomguy(pov)

>>7775782
>>7775817
That's the gun of an off-screen demon. The demon directly under Doom Guy has the same one.

>>7774409
My nigga

>>7774378
Thats John Romero tho :) he was the artists model for the boxart

>>7774392
>DOOMGUY

This. Not going to retcon it.

>>7777096
No he wasn't.

>>7774971

How about "You"?

>>7774971
I think Domm Slyre is a pretty cool guy, eh kills demans and doesn't afraid of anything.

>>7778114
soul

>>7777535
Yes he was

>>7776945
He looks weird with long hair.

>>7777842
Wow, a dlc costume, that changes everything

as gay as OP is, i think im gonna have to agree.
Doom Guy much better than Slayer

>>7775160
well, theres kind of a difference. The Slayer name was given to DoomGuy in the new Doom games, they changed his name, but (correct me if i'm wrong) Im pretty sure that his official name has been Ranger since the first game. He's always been Quake Ranger. Eh idk why im sayin this I still call him Quake dude lmao

>>7778393
Ranger is a Q3 thing, he didn't have a name in Q1
I call him NiggurSlayer

>>7778393
>>7775160
Nope nevermind. He never had a name, he wasn't called Ranger until Q3

>>7778404
lol yeah I just went diggin through the Quake 1 manual to see if they said his name. I didnt find nothin

>>7778114
SUPER FUCKING COOOL!!!!
xDDDD!

>>7774971

>>7774441
wtf is this this shit. BJ Blazkowicz?? What does he have to do with anything?

>>7777535

Dumbass

>>7778445
B.J.'s descendant is the doom rpg doom nigger

>>7778456
idk about that, but why would he think thats doom guys name?

>>7778465
Because it was stated before that the DOOM RPG nigger was the same as the doomguy

>>7778487
who gives a shit about the RGPenis nigger

>>7778450
>>7778278
Romero demonstrated the pose he wanted, but the actual physical model for the original cover was Don Ivan Punchatz's intern, Mike Wimmer.

>>7774971
Your "canon" is full of shit written by a 14 years old fanfic writer who adds a bunch of "epic" and "badass" moments and talks about how the Doom Cringer is the single best thing ever lived. Imagine thinking this MCU tier shit is worth following or debating

>>7774971
I hope you know that Doom Slayer has been confirmed as having Jewish blood.

>>7774937
>>7774971
We are the fans.
We ARE the game.

>>7774971
Yes, jewish intellectual property lawyers are the ones I trust to decide how I should enjoy my old vidya

>>7774971
based as fuck

His name's Daniel Oscar Olson Miller.

>>7774945
How much does your average /vr/ anon cost though? What if it's australia kun? He's supposed to be worth millions.

>>7778975
Australia Kun is most probably like six different faggots who have somehow come to have been attributed as one, like some kind of shitposting autistic Tiamat. Collectively they're worth a couple of pennies, a Bazooka Joe missing its wrapper and coated in a thin film of pocketlint, and an arcade token someone went and mangled at some railroad tracks for some reason.

>>7778343
It literally reads "Doomguy" in the game. Stop playing dumb, retard.

>>7774971
Holy based. boomers btfo.

>>7774971
Dangerously based.

>>7774378
It's Ashley Williams

>>7774971
This is like Star Wars

>>7774448
>where is it from?
about 1 inch left to doom guy

>>7774378
He becomes the Doom Slayer tho

I miss the time when Doomguy was considered cool because he's just a regular guy who kicks some supernatural being's asses, and he does it with the power of firearms created by humanity. Stryker from MK gives similar vibes.

>>7781478
Yeah. Doomslayer just feels like another superhero

>>7781621
Super hero? More like a Demi-god

All these "based" posts by a samefag autist zoomer congratulating himself
Nobody cares about the story behind the slayer name but dumb zoomers with capeshit fantasies
The story never mattered
They can buy and sell the franchise a hundred times and it still won't matter

>>7781771
The story matters now. You can squirm all you want. They added lore to Doom, and they want people to pay attention to it. Whether you like it or not is meaningless, you're just another retard screaming how you know more about the game and the intentions than their own creations and making fanfics about how your vision is the right one.

>>7774378
Am I the only one who never got into nuDoom because it felt like it was trying way too hard to be badass? It really insists upon itself with le rip and tear and YOU ARE AN UNSTOPPABLE DEATH MACHINE! I didn't much care for it.

>>7781774
Yeah, doomslayer is now canon
Just like Matrix being a transexual allegory is also canon now, right?

>>7781774
>Lore
>The story matters
>Vision

>>7781818
which story is this

i thought i had read all junji ito ever did but i sure dont recognize this one

>>7781809
If they make a new movie and Neo was trans all along in it, absolutely. It's their creation, they decided what to do with it, and fanfic writing faggots like you can only seethe and complain about they're hijacking it from you or whatever you dumbasses do.

>>7781881
You're trolling.

>>7774971
Nooooo, muh "word of god", muh intellectual propertyrino. It's doom SLAYER because he slays demons like misoginy and racism like a queen, he fights like a girl actually yes queen slay!

It's Bethesda who decides the truth, like Capcom with the Donte in DmC reboot, the only reason the original Dante is now canon again is because holy Capcom said so, you losers have nothing to do with this.

>>7781997
But it was capcom who wanted donte, retard. Them dialing back after nobody liked that edgelord doesn't change it.

Storychuds think their opinion matters on what makes a game good lmao

>>7781818

The Marine
Greendude
William Blazkowicz III

>>7774971
this.

also, anyone who pledges loyalty to an intellectual property while expecting its owner to respect them in return is a naive moron

Doomguy and Doom Slayer are two completely different characters, I will not give a shit about what anyone says to prove me wrong.

>>7774971

>>7774971

>>7774378
Who cares

>>7781774
This is embarrassing, zoomie.

>>7781881
Do you really believe that? Do you also think that developments made with Star Wars and Star Trek should all be held onto, that there's not a lot of later stuff to throw out?

>>7784352
You are correct.

>>7774691
Muh nigga

It's Doom Guy because he's the guy from Doom

>>7789436
Love how 4chan claims reddit sucks but this thread proves 4chan is full of just as much reddit tier discussion.

>>7789498
Yet you're still here and will always be.

>>7789498
at least the layout isn't nowhere near as retarded
oh no you can't downvote my comment little redditor, now you can't hide it forever and everyone will have to read someone being mean to you, please call the admin of this sub-board!

>>7774409
nah that's mf doom
