    About Video Game Sophistry:
    Video Game Sophistry is an opportunity to celebrate the creators and the artistry found in Video Games. I believe that Games are the most effective medium from experiencing another world, and another way to live. Expect to see a series of videos showcasing the narratives hidden in every game, interviews with game developers, along with our bench mark weekly podcast, Dialogue Wheel.
    Andy Borkowski started this program nearly 10 years ago and, in that time, it has changed from a simple RUclips show, to a radio show, a TV show and now once again a RUclips destination. Welcome to VGS.

      Not to mention that according to lore, he killed one of the behemoth demons before he got his power too. One of the skyscraper sized demons you see in Eternal. Now THAT is badass. Like fighting a much weaker icon of sin but you are about as strong as any other human man out there and only have your bare hands and maybe the super shotgun. I don't remember offhand what they said he killed it with but I am pretty sure I remember the lore thing saying he did it melee style possibly with a bladed weapon, don't think it was one of those sentinel blades or unmakyr type blades though. Probably was but not sure might have just been a sword he picked up off the ground.
      It was only after that battle he wss weakened enough to be captured and locked away. But I'm 100% certain that contradicts the lore of him getting his power before being locked away in hell. I'm definitely gonna go and read up on it all and figure it out. Probably just a little plothole is all..

    During the soul forge level near the end of Doom Eternal where it's revealed that consumed human souls are being turned into demons, Samuel Hayden tells the Slayer that the Makyrs made a deal with the Dark Lord. Said deal was described as "unholy" by Samuel and he seemed pretty personally outraged by it. He also remarks upon how "this could've avoided under different leadership". If Samuel is in-fact Samur Makyr, then that would give us his motivation for betraying the Khan Makyr, as he sees her as a heretic for making a pact with Hell and wishing to usurp her.

      It does, if you stop to think about it we as a species were prey, hunted and mauled until we started to fight back against nature. Now look at doom, isnt that the embodiment of that revolt against a mercileds preying nature represented by hell and its creatures?
      This is my personal theory but i think that rage and revolt was what triggered our evolution to predators and is so deeply embeded in our genes that I belive that is the reason we still keep fighting each other in wars because to fully realise our insticts we must fight against an opressor

      it's easier and cooler to me to go with he was created by Father for this specific purpose (just like the DARK LORD, his counterpart). at some point he was thrown in time/space to when he became a Sentinel. if he was a real person they would have known who he was when he came back to earth, bc they would have searched the military databases obviously and been like "oh that's JOHN SMITH"

      On the other hand if they carried on with the Doom Slayer and The Betrayer being the same person it is still a badass way to go since this means that his penance and regret was heard like a prayer by heaven itself and he was given both a power and a curse as a result.

      Soo basically Doom 1,2, and 64, is the dimension that the Doom Marine is from, but after 64 he was sent to another dimension where the events of the 3 previous games havent happened yet, he's then taken to the sentinels who train him and he becomes the Doom Slayer, he's then put into the sarcophagus in which Samuel Hayden finds him, and he now has to relive the events of his original dimension like killing the CyberDemon, and the Spider Mastermind. He then goes through hell on Earth, but this time kills the hell priests and the Kahn Makyr to stop hell from branching over into other dimensions and taking them over, and the cherry on top, killing the Icon of Sin...yet again. So there's no wonder why this man is constantly angry😂😂😂

Also also, when you walk into the room to stab the icon's heart, the door says, "welcome, seraphim." Idk if it's because haydens consciousness is in the slayers suit. To simplify, I think hayden is seraphim. He seems to know a weird amount about sentinel and mayker history as well.

Its just an empty room with a Life pickup but you can swim underwater and this huge alien which is the same species as the Maykr leader is just floating under the surface.

Until DOOM 2016 I thought that was a direct sequel of DOOM 64, in which the DOOM slayer decided to stay in hell to avoid its forces to invade again Earth or other planets. But this game actually got me confused, because hell is back on Earth. Are we talking about a parallel universe with the same DOOM slayer?

    But the jealous guy, the marauder couldn't accept the strengths of Doomguy because he was from the earth and not the original warrior of the sentinels. However, that idiot had underestimated the abilities of Doomguy as a well-trained marine of the earth. Finally, therefore, the ugly face gladiator, marauder had killed by the Slayer despite he used that hound in the end. Hell monsters should have remembered that the Slayer's lonely battle, which is, he was a just lone wolf who hasn't teammates to cover. But hell monsters are army organization with super level boss monsters such as Doom hunter, Marauder, Gladiator, Cyber demon lord and the icon of sin. They had suggested that unfair battle but he had gotten the flawless victory.

    one thing they left out, im assuming saving for this free DLC they keep talking about, but i was really hoping that the vanilla game would explain how you came in possession of the fortress of doom and what / why that half destroyed mech thing is doing hanging in the lower part of your ship, why is it there or why did he preserve it there? i feel like one of the DLC missions will be a prologue of some sort showing how doom guy escaped hell and found the fortress.

      the first level of the game just screamed to me that this wasnt the first level, like i was missing a whole chapter or two before that point, starting out in the fortress and all that

    Doom Slayer's night helment looks a lot like Goblin Slayer's helment... INTERESTING.
