"I am not the villian of this story." Technically he's right. Everyone, if not most people thought Dr. Hayden would be the villian in Doom Eternal. Instead we got Hayden going "Don't do the thing" to Doom Slayer and then Doom Slayer proceeding to do said thing. I love it.
Well bc its revealed that Hayden only did what he did so that he could power the weaponry necessary to fend off the Khan Makyr and the demons, and bc he was the guy who made Doom Marine into the Slayer-God in the first place.
@@InnsannaStories In a way, I think the Doom Slayer is at fault for how badly the invasion effected Earth. Perhaps if he didn't destroy their main energy source, they may have resisted the invasion a bit better. But he seems to have no real tact or much forward thinking at all other than "Destroy this thing" because it solves his immediate short term issue in a very brutally simple way, but at great cost in the long run.
Actually, all English speaking characters except olivia Pierce sounds like everything is fine, Vega sounds vibed, Samuel is chill, annoying hologram echo guy acts calm. It's seems to only be doom guy and Olivia who knows how dangerous the situation is too doom slayer
“It woooorks. You cannot do this. You must stooop!” Man, this is next level voice work. Hayden runs through like, 35 different moods and pitches in his voice.
When Samuel was being moved to his robot body, was he just like: gimme the most intimidating electronic-sounding voice and also make me 7 1/2 feet tall
I recall there being a codex entry in doom 2016 that said the robotic body was 3 meters (9'8"), tho I could be wrong. He's roughly equal height to a hell knight
I love the dynamic that these two characters have. They are both equally terrifying, but in completely different ways. One is rage fueled and will destroy anything and everything that gets in his way. The other is calm, non violent, but he is an intelligent mastermind. It always seems like there's something more to him, like there's a long sinister history that he's hiding. Plus, his size and voice makes him something that you don't want to piss off

The thing is, you can clearly see the slayer try to properly shut down the reactor at first. When he first approached the reactor, he pushed on what he thought might be a lever, he swiped down on what he thought might be a touch-pad switch thing, and he grabbed the bottom gently to try and twist it off. After those three safe attempts failed, and realizing that he had no idea how to deactivate it properly, he just said "screw this" and stomped on it till it quit working. He went straight to the "break it" option on the second one, but you can see him hesitate before committing to the curb-stomp.
Sharp Cheddar784 he considers what it means, after 3 failed attempts, he’s probably like, this is hell energy, can’t trust it. Second time, he hesitated cause he knows what it would mean for humanity, but decides it’s in our best interests anyways to destroy it.

@@sharpcheddar7842I genuinely love this explanation. Doomguy literally grew up in medieval times and has been asleep for 1000s of years probably, so of course he’s unfamiliar with the technology. It was a miracle he answered Hayden’s call at the beginning of the game with the touch screen. But Doomguy considering a proper procedure at first is some great characterisation. Maybe he just wanted to minimise the chance of it blowing up unexpectedly or maybe he wanted to save the ripping and tearing for the demons, who knows?
0:25 look at the way sammy boy caresses that sarcophagus, he wanted that slayer booty all this time and getting years and years of research destroyed by him was the perfect kink.
I Honestly think he could. Pretty sure he had his new body built with combat in mind. Also when in hell you can see some holograms where he is among troopers who are fighting for their lives meanwhile he's just walking like it's no big deal. Also this is just me but i honestly want him to be no easy fight for doom slayer.
@@doghead2215 if anything he would ally with him sam is no fool and doesn't like the demons because they ruin is work about as much as the slayer sam can also take on the demons but not on doom slayers level of kill an entire dimension of them.
Shark lover1212 He’s probably not a pushover even the slayer would struggle against him. He may not have equal combat power but I’m certain he’s a veteran strategist you can tell he’s been through countless battles even when he met the doomslayer he wasn’t faced. As a matter of fact, judging by the 2016 ending I don’t think he considers doomslayer too big of a threat.
@@Serenity-tn4yn it's not that he thinks lightly of him, it's that he's a scientist, he's only afraid of what he can't understand, and he said it himself, he understands the slayer, he has a pattern and a motivation, therefore, he can be used and controlled to an extent.
@@brutalnecrodude6667 Wich is kinda unfair unless he does something to us. Like...he created the Vega facility and shit. The one that caused the plot is Olivia. I would be pissed off if someone just wakes and destroyes what I've done for years.
@@jeremybk54 obviously he'll not attack Hayden. In a world consumed by daemonic worshipping madness, samuel is kinda adequate man, and if he rewoke the slayer, things again gone pretty scary.
2:29 "You have no idea what you’ve just done.” The horror in his voice now makes much more sense now that Doom Eternal released. For those who don’t know, Earth was already being invaded by demons in Doom 2016, so the UAC NEEDED Argent energy to fight back against the demons. They have no more energy (or no more in reserves at least) once he destroys all 3 filters. The Doom Slayer is indirectly responsible for all the people the demons killed, or most of them anyways.
No, actually the invasion of earth only started after the invasion of mars. It has some time between the two events, and when the slayer actually gets on earth.
On the bright side, considering how pissed Hayden is when he finds out how Argent Energy is really made (basically distilled tortured human soul energy) I think he would’ve been on board with Doom Slayer’s actions here in retrospect
This ties directly into the comments at 6:09. The Doom Slayers approach is to kill them all, whereas Hayden was exploring other options to deal with the Threat of Hell
Not shown, but as most people know I'm sure, the part 1:00 in, you can shoot him and he'll tell you to "save your ammunition". Yeah, he's a great character. What I love is that he's very intimidating and sinister sounding with the guttural voice he has, and yet there's Doom Slayer who is even more intimidating and unfearing. It's an interesting dynamic and not something you often see.
Samuel Hayden is probably one of the few dudes badass enough to mess around with the doomslayer. Most characters cower in fear when he shows up, yet samuel hayden remains calm and collected, even when antagonizing. What's even more interesting is that, if the doomslayer really wanted to, he could easily tear Samuel in half. Samuel knows that the doomslayer is stronger than him, so he obviously wont directly challenge him, but that doesn't mean that he'll take shit from him either. Samuel stands up to the doomslayer, and surprisingly survives. As you said, it's an interesting dynamic.
It wasn't even damaged at all, the plug was destroyed but not the filter itself. The way the slayer throws it and it just bounces off the floor also proves it isn't that fragile.
@@FMHikari the pump itself was severely damaged but the filter cells parts used to connect to the filter pump only received minor damage from being ripped out forcefully.
"Destroying the production of Ardent Energy isn't necessary..." I love the calmness yet pissed off vibe you get, especially knowing he doesn't want the Slayer as his enemy, he treads carefully.
,,You see, I’ve watched you work - come to understand your motivation. You think the only way is to kill them all - leave nothing behind - and you may be right. But we can’t just shut it all down. Without Argent energy it will be worse. I don’t expect you to agree.’’ ,,I am not the villain in this story. I do what I do because there is no choice.’’ ,,Our time is up. I can’t kill you - but I won’t have you standing in our way... Until we see each other again.’’ I hope Samuel Hayden will be one the main faces in Doom: Eternal. I like his character and motivation. It also cool to see that he acknowledges that even in this situation DoomSlayer is a great threat, but still doesn’t kill him. Maybe he really can’t, but maybe he still thinks that Doomguy can understand what he is trying to accomplish. That is the type of villain I enjoy very much.
Samuel Hayden: We have been perfecting this energy for years! It is a solution to solve Earth's energy crisis, and it can only be harvested from hell. This energy cannot be find anywhere in the solar system so you must no destr- Doomslayer: *Smashes it to pieces* Samual Hayden: *Frustrated sighs*
Heaven is portrayed by Urdak, the home of the Khan Makyr. The Makyrs made a deal with Hell. Urdak would receive an unlimited amount of argent energy to keep them alive, in return, hell would be given more worlds to consume. Which is how the Argent D’Nur become consumed by the demons.
YES!. look at the way hayden puts his hand on the tomb it's like he's saying: "we finally meet again, slayer" this moment makes a lot of sense after the ancient gods
I know this video is about Samuel Hayden, but after playing this game religiously I love the little details in the movements of the Doomslayer to show a bit of his personality without him actually speaking. At 2:00 while Hayden is explaining the consequences of the Doomslayers actions you can see that Doomslayer is at pause. The way I see it he is taking Hayden's words into consideration, since the energy crisis for humanity is an enormous issue, but then he looks up at the Hell Portal and you see him refocus on his original judgement. It's nice to see that there is more to the Doomslayer than just a mindless rage machine and Hayden's interactions with him definitely help.
have you not heard of the Techpriests of the Adeptus Mechanicus from Warhammer 40k madness inevitably claims them after centuries of living so ya cyborging up doesn't sound like a great idea after all.
W-wait, Doomslayer armor was changed in doom eternal, is it because of Hayden adding the update of dimensional travel tethering thing? Do Doomslayer had to remove and modify his armor?
Who knows either its the Armor of another fellow Doomslayer or he just modified it with the help of VEGA, since he took VEGA with him in form of a backup chip.
I think that it’s because he spent so much time in hell that he HAS to make a few changes. He might come back to earth and see daisy and then go ballshit and add all the other shits onto the suit. That’s my theory though
Eternal kinda ruined Hayden for me. His backstory about beating brain cancer and becoming better through tech made him a neat character for 'Team Human' and they just pull the rug under all that for a cheap "it was planned all along" moment.
Both of them are correct, absolutely everything in that world is powered by Hell, they have run out of oil, trees if it wasn't for this energy they would have gone extinct anyway, I think Doom Slayer is going to kill Hayden in his anger thus destroying the last hope of humanity they are the same side of the coin, if only they could leave each other alone they would be a perfect duo team.
But they are literally messing around with the forces of Hell. The beauty of this story is that humanity seems to be doomed no matter which path it goes in the name of progress
Brother Sgt. Grau Wolff I don’t think he had nefarious intentions. He wanted to help mankind however his actions only led to devastation but in a way he helped save us by releasing the Doomslayer he knew that even if he failed the Slayer would not so in a way he ensured a sliver of hope for humanity
0:16 Omfg the way he paces around the coffin and lays a hand on it, especially after the DLC, makes it seem like he’s saying: “Yep, I made this guy. Imma keep him around, just in case.”
I was wondering why his voice sounded so intimidatingly familiar. The dude (Darin De Paul) played Alpha from that Netflix show 3Below (It's a relatively mediocre show, doesn't hold up to TrollHunters, but Alpha is a scary mofo) and apparently also Duma from Fire Emblem Echoes. (Also I know he's Reinhardt, but I don't really like Overwatch). Damn, what a great choice for an actor.
Hayden is almost like the illusive man from mass effect. While there are some differences, they both want to use the enemies resources to benefit humanity. And they both cant be fully trusted but still help you
I loved the twist of VEGA being The Father, but I wish they kept Samuel Hayden as just Samuel Hayden and not the Seraphim. I wouldn't mind him knowing about VEGA being god. Heck, they could have even done an awesome twist where Hayden purposely erased GOD'S MEMORIES and made him an all-knowing, servient AI for the 'good of humanity.'
Samuel Hayden in doom 2016 : cool and badass only speaks when it's necessary and up to the point and doesn't show emotions. Samuel Hayden in eternal : "the longer the icon of sin is on earth the stronger he'll become" x 3
Hayden helped make Doom 2016 feel like legit sci-fi action horror. The performance, and production on his voice, along with the writing, made me want to see a good, honestly executed (read: not corporate cash grab) movie adaptation. I love Eternal equally as much, but for different reasons. It perfected the gameplay mechanics, but it is lacking that grounded depth that the atmosphere and writing gave Doom 2016.
Hayden has a great character arc. He goes from like, greedy UAC ceo to Cortana over the two games. Even in the second game he still has admiration for argent energy.
Damn I liked Hayden more as a sinister badass robot lol. I liked the idea that Hayden is just this insanely smart and sinister human that always had humanity's interest in the forefront of his mind despite his questionable methods. And using his gifted smart he made a robot body to transfer his consciousness to that could give the Slayer a run for his money.
Knowing what we know about him now from Doom Eternal...this is even cooler now, particularly at 00:15 where it's like he's saying "Hello again...Old Friend."
The thing is, he didnt "just fucking stomp it". You can clearly see the slayer try to properly shut down the reactor at first.

Tbh, Sam would have been a cool antagonist for the slayer if they stuck with his 2016 interpretation. He doesn’t seem have a problem with all of his coworkers turning into demons, but you stopping argent energy production? Now he’s got a problem. And him taking the crucible at the end of 2016 and him saying he’s doing this out of some necessity was a great hook. It’s an antagonist the franchise has never had. Someone as smart as the Slayer is strong, with him delaying and trapping you preparing whatever while you just bulldoze through every trap he set for you
Hayden acts like a disappointed dad to the Slayer half the time. It's funny.
Yeah
I mean, the slayer is millions of years his senior but yeah, I can kinda see where you're coming from here.

I like how the Slayer just a bit hesitant before destroying the second and third filter like "Maybe i should listen to him... But who am i kidding, we don't have time"
The thing is, you can clearly see the slayer try to properly shut down the reactor at first. When he first approached the first filter, he pushed on what he thought might be a lever, he swiped down on what he thought might be a touch-pad switch thing, and he grabbed the bottom gently to try and twist it off. After those three safe attempts failed, and realizing that he had no idea how to deactivate it properly, he just said "screw this" and stomped on it till it quit working. He went straight to the "break it" option on the second one, but you can see him hesitate before committing to the curb-stomp.
@@sharpcheddar7842 yeah, he carefully analyzed the thing but as Hayden instruction goes, he realizes it would take a lot of time to properly shut it down so he just stomp it instead
@@thecommentguy9380 And since Oliviva was about to open the portal, smashing the filter was the only remaining option.
@@spirz4557 I feel like he knew exactly what he was doing, it looked to me at least that he was making sure he was destroying it for good because he wants absolutely nothing from hell to remain. Just my pov though
@@sharpcheddar7842I genuinely love this explanation. Doomguy literally grew up in medieval times and has been asleep for 1000s of years probably, so of course he’s unfamiliar with the technology. It was a miracle he answered Hayden’s call at the beginning of the game with the touch screen.
But Doomguy considering a proper procedure at first is some great characterisation. Maybe he just wanted to minimise the chance of it blowing up unexpectedly or maybe he wanted to save the ripping and tearing for the demons, who knows?
5:53 onwards - if you turn the sound off and ignore the captions, it almost looks like Hayden is starring in a rap video.

Quite possibly the realest take on this game. Finally, someone who isn't an absolute brainlet when it comes to deciphering the lore of Doom.
I'd love to see Hayden just DESTROY a Baron.
I Honestly think he could. Pretty sure he had his new body built with combat in mind. Also when in hell you can see some holograms where he is among troopers who are fighting for their lives meanwhile he's just walking like it's no big deal. Also this is just me but i honestly want him to be no easy fight for doom slayer.
@@doghead2215 if anything he would ally with him sam is no fool and doesn't like the demons because they ruin is work about as much as the slayer sam can also take on the demons but not on doom slayers level of kill an entire dimension of them.
Shark lover1212 He’s probably not a pushover even the slayer would struggle against him. He may not have equal combat power but I’m certain he’s a veteran strategist you can tell he’s been through countless battles even when he met the doomslayer he wasn’t faced. As a matter of fact, judging by the 2016 ending I don’t think he considers doomslayer too big of a threat.
@@Serenity-tn4yn it's not that he thinks lightly of him, it's that he's a scientist, he's only afraid of what he can't understand, and he said it himself, he understands the slayer, he has a pattern and a motivation, therefore, he can be used and controlled to an extent.
Also shooting him with Super shotgun doesnt even harm him which hurt barons badly
Ah, Good Old Sammy....

SHOCKBOLT 14 we’re probably gonna rip him apart for what he done

@@brutalnecrodude6667 Wich is kinda unfair unless he does something to us. Like...he created the Vega facility and shit. The one that caused the plot is Olivia. I would be pissed off if someone just wakes and destroyes what I've done for years.
i would b shocked if the first thing doomguy does after being re-acquainted with Samuel isn't attacking him
@@jeremybk54 obviously he'll not attack Hayden. In a world consumed by daemonic worshipping madness, samuel is kinda adequate man, and if he rewoke the slayer, things again gone pretty scary.
2:29 "You have no idea what you’ve just done.” The horror in his voice now makes much more sense now that Doom Eternal released. For those who don’t know, Earth was already being invaded by demons in Doom 2016, so the UAC NEEDED Argent energy to fight back against the demons. They have no more energy (or no more in reserves at least) once he destroys all 3 filters. The Doom Slayer is indirectly responsible for all the people the demons killed, or most of them anyways.
No, actually the invasion of earth only started after the invasion of mars.
It has some time between the two events, and when the slayer actually gets on earth.
@@Andrlz_ it started but the problem is the Earth got no juice to jack up for the consequences they made at the Mars
On the bright side, considering how pissed Hayden is when he finds out how Argent Energy is really made (basically distilled tortured human soul energy) I think he would’ve been on board with Doom Slayer’s actions here in retrospect
This ties directly into the comments at 6:09.
The Doom Slayers approach is to kill them all, whereas Hayden was exploring other options to deal with the Threat of Hell
0:24, In that moment, all of his work got destroyed...
Captain Crimson do u mean that he awakened the thing that would end all of his work?
@@FangHeist225 no, of course not.
Not quite, it's Olivia who destroyed his work. Slayer is just the cleanup guy.
Not shown, but as most people know I'm sure, the part 1:00 in, you can shoot him and he'll tell you to "save your ammunition". Yeah, he's a great character. What I love is that he's very intimidating and sinister sounding with the guttural voice he has, and yet there's Doom Slayer who is even more intimidating and unfearing. It's an interesting dynamic and not something you often see.
Samuel Hayden is probably one of the few dudes badass enough to mess around with the doomslayer. Most characters cower in fear when he shows up, yet samuel hayden remains calm and collected, even when antagonizing. What's even more interesting is that, if the doomslayer really wanted to, he could easily tear Samuel in half. Samuel knows that the doomslayer is stronger than him, so he obviously wont directly challenge him, but that doesn't mean that he'll take shit from him either. Samuel stands up to the doomslayer, and surprisingly survives. As you said, it's an interesting dynamic.
"You have no idea of what you have just done"
Oh please, they did the favour of actually taking off the filter this time.
True the filter was not too damaged just riped out still gonna take work to make another filter pump though that being difficult and all
It wasn't even damaged at all, the plug was destroyed but not the filter itself. The way the slayer throws it and it just bounces off the floor also proves it isn't that fragile.
@@FMHikari the pump itself was severely damaged but the filter cells parts used to connect to the filter pump only received minor damage from being ripped out forcefully.
Agreed
"Destroying the production of Ardent Energy isn't necessary..."
I love the calmness yet pissed off vibe you get, especially knowing he doesn't want the Slayer as his enemy, he treads carefully.
,,You see, I’ve watched you work - come to understand your motivation. You think the only way is to kill them all - leave nothing behind - and you may be right. But we can’t just shut it all down. Without Argent energy it will be worse. I don’t expect you to agree.’’
,,I am not the villain in this story. I do what I do because there is no choice.’’
,,Our time is up. I can’t kill you - but I won’t have you standing in our way... Until we see each other again.’’
I hope Samuel Hayden will be one the main faces in Doom: Eternal. I like his character and motivation. It also cool to see that he acknowledges that even in this situation DoomSlayer is a great threat, but still doesn’t kill him. Maybe he really can’t, but maybe he still thinks that Doomguy can understand what he is trying to accomplish. That is the type of villain I enjoy very much.
He sees the Doomslayer as a contingency plan, if everything goes to hell, then the Doomslayer will do what has to be done as a last resort.
But he's not the villain in this story 🥺

0:33 Samur Makyr is happy to find the slayer again
Yeap
That cutscene makes way more sense now after playing the doom eternal dlc.
And THAT is why the Demons want humanity, they have a mastery over tech that the Demons wish to utilize against heaven.
Actually it's the cult within UAC that voluntarily work for hell, that's how the demons got their enhancements.
Though i think they wanted to turn some of the demons into their weapons at first
Heaven is portrayed by Urdak, the home of the Khan Makyr. The Makyrs made a deal with Hell. Urdak would receive an unlimited amount of argent energy to keep them alive, in return, hell would be given more worlds to consume. Which is how the Argent D’Nur become consumed by the demons.
By "heaven" you mean Urdak, right?

@@airbornezombie7655 the guy behind the voice look him up
I know this video is about Samuel Hayden, but after playing this game religiously I love the little details in the movements of the Doomslayer to show a bit of his personality without him actually speaking. At 2:00 while Hayden is explaining the consequences of the Doomslayers actions you can see that Doomslayer is at pause. The way I see it he is taking Hayden's words into consideration, since the energy crisis for humanity is an enormous issue, but then he looks up at the Hell Portal and you see him refocus on his original judgement. It's nice to see that there is more to the Doomslayer than just a mindless rage machine and Hayden's interactions with him definitely help.
I wish I could transplant myself into an indestructible robot like Dr. Hayden... that way I will survive for thousands of years ...

W-wait, Doomslayer armor was changed in doom eternal, is it because of Hayden adding the update of dimensional travel tethering thing? Do Doomslayer had to remove and modify his armor?
Oh shit, that's a nice theory... and it makes sense
I thought of that already before I saw your post
Who knows either its the Armor of another fellow Doomslayer or he just modified it with the help of VEGA, since he took VEGA with him in form of a backup chip.
I think that it’s because he spent so much time in hell that he HAS to make a few changes. He might come back to earth and see daisy and then go ballshit and add all the other shits onto the suit. That’s my theory though
ZAYAN H no they're talking about Doom Eternal not Doom. Doomslayer is on Earth.
Samuel is the best villain. He's not even a villain, just that two good guys: Sam and Slayer have different intentions.
Eternal kinda ruined Hayden for me. His backstory about beating brain cancer and becoming better through tech made him a neat character for 'Team Human' and they just pull the rug under all that for a cheap "it was planned all along" moment.

I don't think he's calm after the filters are destroyed. Listen to his voice after the third filter is fucked up. He is *seething*
ragingbaboon38 No he’s calm

Both of them are correct, absolutely everything in that world is powered by Hell, they have run out of oil, trees if it wasn't for this energy they would have gone extinct anyway, I think Doom Slayer is going to kill Hayden in his anger thus destroying the last hope of humanity they are the same side of the coin, if only they could leave each other alone they would be a perfect duo team.
Doctor Who Cares counter point, by continuously messing around with Hell and Demons, humanity will more likely than not get into something more gorey
But they are literally messing around with the forces of Hell. The beauty of this story is that humanity seems to be doomed no matter which path it goes in the name of progress

Omfg the way he paces around the coffin and lays a hand on it, especially after the DLC, makes it seem like he’s saying:
“Yep, I made this guy. Imma keep him around, just in case.”
I love how the slayer can convey so much emotion without ever saying a word
He does convey a lot of emotion. A lot of one, emotion.

I was wondering why his voice sounded so intimidatingly familiar. The dude (Darin De Paul) played Alpha from that Netflix show 3Below (It's a relatively mediocre show, doesn't hold up to TrollHunters, but Alpha is a scary mofo) and apparently also Duma from Fire Emblem Echoes.

As much as I loved most of Doom Eternal's story, the whole "Samuel Hayden is a seraphim" thing really feels like a stretch.
Having still not gotten around to playing it, from an outsider perspective that does sound like a big stretch
Hayden is almost like the illusive man from mass effect. While there are some differences, they both want to use the enemies resources to benefit humanity. And they both cant be fully trusted but still help you
Shout out to Darin De Paul, Hayden's VA, who also voices Revenant from Apex Legends and Reinhardt from Overwatch

I loved the twist of VEGA being The Father, but I wish they kept Samuel Hayden as just Samuel Hayden and not the Seraphim. I wouldn't mind him knowing about VEGA being god. Heck, they could have even done an awesome twist where Hayden purposely erased GOD'S MEMORIES and made him an all-knowing, servient AI for the 'good of humanity.'
I would like to think that Hayden feels a great deal of guilt during the invasion in Doom Eternal.
"I only poopoo farted for the good of humanity."
i love how he just gives up on trying to convince the Slayer to not destroy the filters
And he was an angel in a robot body. What a dumb twist...
He can read anything and I'll be genuinely interested about it because of that voice
Don't let this distract you from the fact that the longer the icon of sin is on earth, the stronger it will become

This is cool hearing some of the things he says with context to eternal’s campaign and ancient gods
Hayden helped make Doom 2016 feel like legit sci-fi action horror. The performance, and production on his voice, along with the writing, made me want to see a good, honestly executed (read: not corporate cash grab) movie adaptation.
I love Eternal equally as much, but for different reasons. It perfected the gameplay mechanics, but it is lacking that grounded depth that the atmosphere and writing gave Doom 2016.
Hayden has a great character arc. He goes from like, greedy UAC ceo to Cortana over the two games. Even in the second game he still has admiration for argent energy.
You can’t just shoot a hole into the core of mars
Tadbane Doomslayer: *”Observe”*
This is a gun not a teleporter
Damn I liked Hayden more as a sinister badass robot lol.
I liked the idea that Hayden is just this insanely smart and sinister human that always had humanity's interest in the forefront of his mind despite his questionable methods. And using his gifted smart he made a robot body to transfer his consciousness to that could give the Slayer a run for his money.
I agree, him being an alien angel is a dumb twist.

Knowing what we know about him now from Doom Eternal...this is even cooler now, particularly at 00:15 where it's like he's saying "Hello again...Old Friend."
His voice, while robotic, reminds me of reverse flash from the cw show. I feel like he has the same tone

Tbh, Sam would have been a cool antagonist for the slayer if they stuck with his 2016 interpretation.
He doesn’t seem have a problem with all of his coworkers turning into demons, but you stopping argent energy production? Now he’s got a problem. And him taking the crucible at the end of 2016 and him saying he’s doing this out of some necessity was a great hook.
It’s an antagonist the franchise has never had. Someone as smart as the Slayer is strong, with him delaying and trapping you preparing whatever while you just bulldoze through every trap he set for you
