Oh you want shoot yourself out of a canon for fast travel? You want to bring the most dangerous demonic form to life just to kill it for good...on a dragon...in a big ass avengers endgame fight? Why the fuck not? Who would hate that?

[@zeporion6091]

I was kinda excited because I thought for once in a Doom DLC we’d get more than one boss fight; grounding the dragon and branding it with the Slayer’s mark in order to gain passage. Instead it materializes out of nowhere because the plot needs it

I'm glad he addressed the "killing VEGA" plot hole, that's the one that immediately jumped at me after TAG 1. So it's more like Sam was cool with killing the Father but since he lived, he reworked his plans for power and settled for his original position as right-hand-man (for now).

[@bluefiregaming6565]

I think he also tried to absorb the father’s power in the life sphere part, so maybe he still wasn’t really fine with it.

[@RacingSnails64]

@@bluefiregaming6565 Did he? Unfortunately Doomguy broke Father's sphere before we could see what Samur would do with it lol.

[@stairmasternem]

So basically if Doom 2016 did not have Doom Guy wake up, what would’ve happened was Olivia’s deal would’ve resulted in Samuel and VEGA likely destroyed, plus the destruction of Earth. The Makyrs would’ve continued their survival, but in the process kill Father and those able to revive Father via that sphere.

[@VBVoid]

10:08 My theory is sentinels linked their portal devices through gate of divum to open a portal inside Immora xD

[@aardappelmethoed1151]

maybe just a portal to the gate of divum. So just portal to portal

[@Finnisher_DAD]

Yeah I'm thinking as Slayer opened the Gate of Divum, it allowed Sentinels to travel to Immora as well. Commander Valen probably followed Slayers trail in the hopes he would succeed and convinced his brothers in arms to join the cause. Besides the Father says Hell Priests forbade the use of the beacon and once it was lit, Sentinels all around were signaled that the time has come. And like Hugo said, the Sentinels trapped in Hell by the Priests would probably have their own access to Immora once the path is "cleared" by Slayer or after the beacon was lit. Perhaps they readily stationed themselves strategically after all the Priests were killed to be able to attack Immora should the need come. (And somewhere King Novik is both shaking his head but also smiling in approval!)

[@grahamcarpenter5135]

That's what I thought too.

[@volkitolkitorino]

[@InternetDog_]

Best thing Hugo said imo is the comment about broad strokes at 3:00. Having a mix between core plans already written and lore based on the current in-game setting/level being worked on by devs gives Doom the structure and spotinuity fans love. The style of development is just perfect for the tone of Doom. I just hope the story doesn't get too out of hand. He said later that he wants less codex entries and more screen time. Seems like he's got a handle on things. :)

[@Marvsterer]

12:00 - the most beautiful moment of this interview. Period. Eternal showed me a very self-inspirational thing - don't fear to move through life, don't stand still, fight the enthropy of the surrounding universe and never back down from the path you feel right to go through. But when Hugo said this beautiful thing my heart melted even more towards the game. He is a very inspirational figure to look up to, and not only in creative sense.

[@LaurRants]

[@khoile4271]

I think I can add sth more to the VEGA/Father Sacrifice problem. Regardless of whether or not Samur actually was planning for his creator's death in 2016, I think the Father would still be fine if you take into account that VEGA was only the Father's mind and conscience. The Father's soul and essence were safely stored away in Ingmore's Sanctum before his amnesia and subsequent transformation into VEGA.

What I wanna know is how many years old is the Slayer truly? I mean even after "EONS" the sentinels are still alive and they still knew who the Slayer was. I mean if we go for billions then that would make the Night Sentinels and the Khan Maykr also billions of yrs old.

[@Foreigner-yz8lh]

I think I read somewhere in the codex entries about the Khan Maykr that each Khan only lives a 10,000 year period before suffering form transfiguration and it seems like the Khan in the flashbacks is the same Khan in eternal so he’s younger that 10,000

Here’s another interesting plot hole. The Slayer Testament VII confirmed the Slayer to be lured into a temple that collapsed on him, entrapping and defeating him in the process. For the Slayer to have been put in the cursed sarcophagus completely naked after the temple’s collapse, the demons could’ve killed him right then and there. So why didn’t they? It’s not like the Slayer is immortal in the absolute sense. The dude simply doesn’t age, that’s all.

[@GoldBrickProductions]

Perhaps Davoth wanted him merely contained so he could try to use him for another purpose
