Wouldn't it be cool if there was a game that ties all the lore of Wolfenstein, Keen, Doom, and Dangerous Dave and Quake together into one universe? Possibly with all five characters playable?

Keen, Doom marine and BJ are all directly related.

Do we need lore? Can't you just kill people.

excuse me but Commander Keen is a brilliant scientist and explorer, he's not just a merciless killer

I don't trust Bethesda to do it. They haven't paid attention to the old lore when making their new lore.

>Keen x babysitter
Uh.... Please tell me this isn't canon.

Nono, no, obviously Doomguy's parents are Billy and Mortimer. BB and MM stay rivals and enemies all throughout middle and high school, then they don't see eachother for a few years, when they meet again in college (ironically, in chemistry class) the chemistry is completely different.

They haven't officially named the Keen wife. She simply looks like the babysitter did.

If that's how you want to think about it, that's what the creators basically did. They only had to link 3 games, and two of them had the same basic gameplay in separate time periods.

I just wish more was done with Mortimer as a character. For as little as we knwo about him, he's actually really interesting. Yeah "the good guy but evil" is kind of a huge cliche now, but it wasn't really done back then. This was 1991! He was like Keen's Wario before Wario even existed.

This is fanfic. Anya never gave birth to Arthur. Where are you inserting a whole extra generation between Keen and Doomguy?

>> No.5955524

>>5955317
Of course it’s fan fiction. Nobody surveyed otherwise. Romero has only ever said they were “directly related”.

Keens universe takes place in the 90’s and he’s 8 years old. Doom guy exists in 2145....

No, he gives a lot more info than that. Keen is Doomguy's direct father. The games also provide Keen with a family of siblings.

"Fanfic" assumes it was made by a fan. From all appearances there was zero research performed at all.

Keens older older brother is who he stole the helmet from.
Keen's sister originated from the music track of the games, and makes fun of Keen for needing to eat his vegetables.
