The Dark Ages covered a pretty lengthy period of the Doom timeline. With Hugo Martin, Doom’s game director at id Software, claiming The Slayer’s Testament is “the game we are going to play”, we have some questions. The Slayer's Testament is a main feature of Doom 2016 that told us some of the story of the betrayal of The Slayer and his crusade against Hell.
Just how in-depth is The Slayer’s Testament, how important is it and what insights does it give us into the plot points, locations and enemies in the next Doom game, Doom: The Dark Ages? In this video, I explore the lore and story behind The Slayer's Testament in Doom.

Should this have been a Quake game?

No, I want more Doom and giving Doom a medieval fresh coat of paint is refreshing for the franchise.

I absolutely love in testament demons talk about him as some sort of ancient evil a myth about a nightmarish beast. Like some of the legends that in fantasy story's characters tell about big old bad guy of story who was such evil and powerful thing that they're have no chance only but locking him in depest and fortified abyss jails they can find.

"The Wretch who shall not be named" doesn't sound like Vallen. The testament is written by the demons and he helped them quite a lot. They have no beef with him, just casual cruelty.

@violet_steak3412 Месяц назад

Valen can not be the wretch. "The Wretch who shall not be named," is a demon. Valen was a human from Argent D'nur. Unless Valen became a demon after he betrayed his people, there is no way Valen could be the wretch. The way the wretch is described, he was a demon that forged weapons and armor for the forces of hell, not a warrior. Valen was a warrior. So this wouldn't make sense. It is a fairly interesting idea, though.

@BanishedSilentShadow3318 Месяц назад

Plus i do doubt that valen would become a demon. Yeah he did sold out his people in exchange to have his son back, but turning him into the icon of sin. I think once the game comes out we'll see, and i do kinda hope we'll see or a tease or maybe something about this dark priest that was mentioned in 2016, the priest that "would make even the slayer weep in his shadow' (or something like that....)

@hihowrya370 Месяц назад

Man I really want to know who the Wretch is. It'll be cool that at some point in The Dark Ages, the Slayer meet the Wretch and retrieve his 2016 suit.

"Looking for those Dark Lord's who had wronged him"... Interesting so we have a quote mentioning multiple Dark Lord's existing at the same time.

@BanishedSilentShadow3318 Месяц назад

Yeah. But I'm more curious about the dark priest that was mentioned in 2016 that made it out that he's much more powerful

@hihowrya370 Месяц назад

Just an addition and kind of a clarification. According to the art book, Davoth and his army (the Demons) gradually becomes more powerful and more powerful as long as "evil stuff" occur throughout creation (multiverse). This is probably how the Slayer is able to get stronger from the enemies he killed, as mentioned by the Testaments, because his power and Davoth's are practically linked and one and the same.

@tsarbombadrama5800 Месяц назад

Honestly I think the best idea they could do, would be to have the Dark Ages start from when the doom slayer first arrives on Argent D'Nur, up until the point he becomes trapped in hell. With a sequel game being entirely in hell

@Skyrionn Месяц назад

I'd love to play that game

@wearsjorge55 Месяц назад

Itll probably start with the moment he leaves the divinity machine after receiving his power.

@SaintJamn Месяц назад

@Skyrionn Месяц назад

@xOneManLegacy Месяц назад

Always enjoy listening to your videos. Visually they are always well put together, but I tend to listen to them while I’m at work really hope this game is amazing.

@kingjohn8980 Месяц назад

My own personal head cannon is that the Wretch is the voice from the beginning of 2016 who told the Slayer to rip and tear until it is done. It just makes sense to me as he was talking with a lot of familiarity towards the demons so he was probably a demon himself.

@thelonepainter4760 Месяц назад

Keep the lore coming! Maybe do a video on the armor the doom guy wears in each game. 😊🙌🏽👍🏽

@Hyperion-5744 Месяц назад

Some random channel that i came across about a week ago had a theory that the wretch is a demon that betrayed hell.

@Goldstandard_1 Месяц назад

The Unmakyr is said to be based off of one of Argent D'nur's weapons, and I noticed that the skull crusher kind of is similar to that weapon in terms that it shoots fragments in many directions, what do ya'll think?

@ericc2129 Месяц назад

Did Samur make the slayer immortal? Seems like the demons would have had the best chance to kill him while he was trapped. Sounds like the divinity machine mixed with the slayers rage makes it impossible for him to die.

@MintyLime703 Месяц назад

I hadn't noticed until recently from the trailer that the imps are back to being more like the classic ones found in the first 3 games. Taller, slower and sorta imposing. I wonder if a possible lore reason is that they evolved to be smaller and faster in 2016 and Eternal solely because of the Slayer's time spent in Hell.

@@117swordsmen ah, yeah... Completely forgot about this one, sorry. It's true, that plasma rifle is probably the most "modern" weapon in the game. Might be a Sentinel counterpart, considering that they are highly advanced too, but I'm not sure. As I looked up at the trailer again, I also noticed that the place where doomguy in a mech fought a titan for a second looked pretty similar to the Mars' surface. The orange mist and the design of the buildings around that scene strangely reminded me about the UAC facilities.
