Is it possible, that the DOOM games are all in continuity? At least the main entrys of the series.

DOOM 1 and 2, Doomguy fights back the forces of hell.

DOOM 64, the Doomguy stays in hell to make sure, no demon ever escapes.

Then i read this in a commentary:
"in the last level of Doom 3, there's a room called "Chamber of the Hero" where there's a large coffin containing the remains of the first Doomguy. There's even a video-log mentioning him "banishing the invading horde forever.""
Can someone confirm this? I really can't remember seeing this in DOOM 3.

DOOM 2016, we saw he got captured and locked into a sarcophagus by the demons, that makes doom 3 possible, the demons escaped again.

After that, the UAC starting to us the enrgy from the hellportals and call it Argent energy.
DOOM 2016 happens.

In my eyes, that makes every DOOM game canon.
What do you think?

Where does DOOM RPG take place?

Our hearts.

>>338126378
If I recall DOOM RPG said that it's the same character throughout Doom 1-3.
>>
>>338125483
makes all sense here
>>
>>338126309
OP here, I said the main entrys of the series, not every game. Besides, I never played DOOM RPG.
>>
Every doom game that does not conflict with Doom 4 is canon

Apparently Wolfenstein, Comander Keen, and all Doom games take place in the same timeline/universe.

''The website for Doom RPG does state that the protagonist in Doom RPG is the same character from Doom, Doom II, and Doom 3."

According to Doom 2016, they're all the same doom guy, except maybe doom 3's, which might be an alternate timeline doomguy

What we do know of 2016's doomguy is that he's essentially, in the demon's eyes, a demigod who cannot be killed, and they had to drop a massive demonic temple on him in order to seal him in a the sarcophagus and then put "DO NOT OPEN OR WE ARE ALL FUCKED" on it, then Doom 2016's timeline UAC found it and opened it.

>>338126309
Wait what? DOOM RPG!?
>>
>>338126657
>According to Doom 2016, they're all the same doom guy, except maybe doom 3's, which might be an alternate timeline doomguy

The guy from DOOM 3 is a different person, he even survives DOOM 3. But at the time DOOM 3 happens, the original Doomguy is already locked up in hell.
>>
So did the demons just like not try hard in Doom 3. They only sent small waves to attack.
>>
>>338127282
Probably were still recovering after Doomguy season.
>>
>>338126627
That doesn't make any fucking sense

Does doomguy get his original skin at any point in the new game? The covered arms really kills the cheesy macho image.

So, Billy Blaze died in hell?

Where does that happens? I never saw a body that looked like Billy. Did I miss something?
>>
I liked this explanation for Doom 3 better
>>
>>338130391
Dunno. It was in the Wolfenstein wiki.
>>
Played the new doom for the first time at my friend's house today. What the fuck is up with the input lag? It's the worst out of any game I've ever played. I think it was the only thing that kept me from having fun.
>>
>>338129423
Why would Billy's helmet have Doom on it?

This is stupid.
>>
>>338130596
Because... Easter egg. Or the demons opened a hell merch store.
>>
>>338125483
in Doom1, doomguy died in the first chapter.

here's that sarcophagus. there are also stone tablets with original doom cover on them
>>
>>338131390
OP here, thanks, I definetely didn't saw that in DOOM 3.
>>
>>338131297
When did this happened???
>>
>>338130583
Your friend's TV sucks.
>>
>>338131297
while yes he does die on phobos, doomguy goes straight to hell where he kicks all their asses and then they send him back

>>338130391

Anyone have a link to this cutscene or something?
>>
>>338132884
It's not a cutscene, it's on one of those pda's you can find, if I remember right.
>>
>>338131641
So there's no input lag? I didn't realize the tv could make that big of a difference.
>>
>>338125483
Literally all games and wads are in Doom cannon

Even the porn ones. Especially, even.
>>
>>338134538
Remember that one time Doomguy was a Korean anime girl and went full DMC style on demons
>>
>>338135182
Remember that time doomguy would die if he didn't finish his missions on time? and there was some lava guy?
>>
>>338125483
From the Soul Cube wiki article:
>>With it, their single greatest champion, simply called "the Hero", (a take on the Doomguy's namelessness) took on the invading force singlehandedly and managed to seal the portal. "The Hero" didn't seem to survive, since his burial chamber was found. He appears to be very tall, because his tomb is very long. The Cube was then buried along with other artifacts near The Hero's burial chamber, in case anyone ever had to deal with the forces of Hell again.

DOOMGUY WAS THE ORIGINAL USER OF THE SOUL CUBE
>>
>>338135182
I am unironically hoping that you can play as the Demonsteele protagonist in the Doom 4 sequel/expansion.
>>
>>338133984
Yeah man. Tv's are awful with lag. I only steam controller my pc games to tv when it's like battleblock theatre or something where it doesn't matter.

>debating about video game "lore" (how does that even work???) and not just enjoying them for the entertainment they're meant to be

You're one sad lonely loser, you know?
>>
>>338127282
90% of their forces stands watch over Doomguy to make sure he never, ever escapes.
>>
>>338139958
not really though, it's just some shit ID made up to make bored virgins think there's a story behind the mindless shooting, which is what Doom is about

But it's doom?
>>
>>338139276
Doom 4 is actually kinda cool that way though.

There is very clearly a serious story going on in that game, but it's all in the periphery and Doomguy doesn't give a fuck. He actually encounters a Bioshock-esque audiolog very early in the game and tosses it away while it's still playing. The attitude this game has towards story is great, but it's still kinda fun to try and piece the story together
>>
>>338140512
The very notion that it is big, old, stupid Doom makes it hilarious and compelling that they even bothered to go for a weird meta-narrative.
>>
>>338125483
So... Does Quake 3 fit in this?
