![]() ![]() Even though he is an iconic silent protagonist, the Slayer supposedly does nothing but rave about demons and how much he hates them upon arrival. But after those titles, and perhaps some diversions into the Quake-verse-or maybe even the candy-colored world of Fall Guys-the Doom Marine finds himself stranded outside of Hell in a place called Argent D'Nur.Äoomguy is quite insane when he is yanked out of Hell by the Argenta-the human-looking race that inhabits Argent D'nur. It is unclear if Doom 3, itself a remake/reboot of Doom substitutes the events of Doom, or fits into this timeline at all. Aspects of Doom (2016) make reference to its events, however, suggesting a timeline to the effect of Doom 3, Doom 2, Doom 64. In Doom 2, the marine (now affectionately dubbed "Doomguy" by the community) begins his bloody campaign anew on Earth, before once again returning to Hell to fight demons at their source. This same framework-demons invade, Doomguy kills the invasion, and then goes back to Hell to keep on killin'-repeats again in Doom 64.

The "official" chronology of the Doom series is also challenging to parse, as the combination of reboots and sequels (along with the existence of multiple dimensions) results in a timeline viewed through a funhouse mirror rather than a history book. Blazkowicz (protagonist of the Wolfenstein series), or his participation in the Quake franchise are ambiguous, due to the incredibly convoluted nature of Doom's lore. The canonicity of certain facts about the Doom Slayer, like his supposed ancestry to Commander Keen and B.J. The central figure in this saga is the Doom Slayer, a nameless marine who, through exploits of slaughter and carnage, has become a supernatural hero at the heart of the Doom mythos. It is a safe assumption that most people who play Doom are not playing it for the story, but Id Software's most recent release, Doom Eternal drastically raised the narrative stakes with a complex narrative that accounts for most (if not all) of the series' history. ![]()
