The DOOM Timeline | COMPLETE DOOM Story & Lore

- The Doom timeline is long and complicated. This story takes place over multiple versions of Earth as the UAC sought to experiment with advanced technology. The Doomguy took down many demons through his exploration of Hell, Argent D'Nur and Hell.
In this video, I explore the whole history and story of Doom. Although the Doomguy was not able to save his rabbit, Daisy, he did save the universe from the evil actions of Davoth, the Icon of Sin, the Khan Maykr and many more entities that sought only to inflict harm.

Killing Daisy the rabbit was hell's biggest mistake and would cost them everything.

Doom slayer is the John wick of hell
Hellboss: "Why is that Doom Slayer roaming the lands killing my minions?"
Demons: "Sir hellboss. We....*stuttering*....we kind of killed his pet rabbit."
Hellboss: "You fools! You have doomed us all!"
@@kurt1277, so... John Wick is a parody of Doom. Yup. Cant unlearn that now.
UAC: We are sorry, the last incursion of hell, your family was killed.
DG: My what now?
UAC: Also a rabbit named Daisy?
DG:.............*heavymetalfuckingbreathing*..........
I love how the Doom Guy went from a mild annoyance to the Boogieman of Hell. Playing Doom 2016 really showed how much the demons of hell were scared of him.
It was driven home for me when I performed my first glory kill on an imp. The look on its face wasn’t rage, hatred, or even capitulation…just raw, unrestrained _fear._
A _Demon of Hell_ looked at me with _fear_ in its eyes.
@@JamesTAdams sorry but thats pretty fuckin corny 😹

How'd you do mate?
When Hell calls you shit like “The Unchained Predator” or “The Inescapable Blade,” you’ve reached an entirely different level.
That’s one thing for a resident, but to a foreigner not meant to be nearly as strong as denizens….its an entirely different beast
It’s amazing how many people didn’t realize doom 3 was canon. Great to see someone actually including the lore from 3!
people know it’s still connected to the classic games but they brush off the 3 connections as references
@@jess648i dont understand why? im not a fan of doom 3s gameplay but slotting it into the lore is just good fun its not like it breaks the timeline
@@igrowweed2847 it can also feasibly exist as another version of the Mars incident in another universe. after all Doomguy became the Slayer after ending up on Sentinel Prime sometime after the events of Doom 64

@@AshleyGrahamcracker-oq3pf doom 3 in general had a bunch of exposition of some former civilization that lived on mars that was scrapped
This was a great Christmas present. Thank you. The doom lore is often overlooked.
I agree. The story is fantastic!
there is a type of person that ignores the doom story, lmao
Just when we needed him the most, Skyrionn is back with more lore for me to fall asleep to
Thanks for watching!
one does not sleep to doom lore
one does not sleep to doom lore
One must be aware
Falling asleep to this was my plan too. I failed. It was too amusing to read. All I can think is that Hell just keeps trying. Over and over.
As someone who's played most of the games and read the lore on all of the games, I definitely agree with how you ordered the timeline and the different multi-verses. Great video as always, thanks for making great stuff
Thank you for the kind comment. I learned that some people generally hate the whole "multiverse" thing but "The Art of Doom Eternal" confirms it to be a real thing. Thanks for watching the video.
I've watched/listened to this a few times now and I'm still blown away by the quality of it and your ability to tie all this stuff together in a way that makes quite a bit of sense. I'm a relatively new Doom fan, I played 2016 a few years after it released and then picked up Eternal on release day, but I've since played a good bit of two or three of the older ones. I'm amazed at the amount of lore you were able to compile and the visuals you edited together to illustrate all of it. This video has really given me a better understanding and a deeper appreciation for this series.
Thanks for watching it. It took a while to get the actual script together and to piece the games to work. It was a looooong project but I am so happy with how it turned out. Thanks for noticing the effort ☺
@@Skyrionn You should be incredibly proud, dude! Your stuff helps me get through the long nights at work and I appreciate that a ton. Happy Holidays to you and yours, and thank you for everything you do!
Anyone remember the often forgotten, turn-based Doom RPG? It was a mobile game that came out in 2005. The plot seemed to take elements from the first three games. It was actually rather fun and used many of the weapons and sound effects from the original Doom. There were hidden doors and secrets in each level. It even kept the first-person viewpoint.
I kept my old barely functional LG phone for years after I cracked the screen just to play Doom RPG. Wasn't able to find it on any other platform after that.
Anyways, great video Skyrionn! It took me down a Doom-themed memory lane.
I have doom rpg 1 and 2 on my phone right now.
Was that the one where you use a spear to badly injured a giant demon and that said demon went back to hell and become rhe Cyberdemon that we all know in Doom 1 and Doom 2 games?
That's actually wolfenstein RPG@@thegoodwin
@@Officer-Balls , yes
Damn they had moible games like that in 2005
As someone just bought doom 2016, I can't wait to hear a lore break down of stuff I'm pretty sure I missed.
It's such an amazing story.
lol most of this isn’t in 2016 I think. Most of this is in Doom Eternal. Hopefully you skipped around a little!
Almost none of this is 2016. It's all doom eternal and especially its DLC
Thank you so much for this video! I was super confused on why the doom slayer woke up in the coffin in the DOOM reboot, but never really bothered to read into the lore myself. This video is very well put together and I absolutely love it. My nostalgia and love for Doom 3 and Resurrection of Evil was overjoyed to see them included.
Happy to help! We have to send love to Doom 3 and ROE. They're great in their own way.
I almost feel like the entire Doom story is a parody. Like they thought "no one plays Doom for the story so we're just gonna throw a bunch of contrived bs in and people can read into it if they want to". So it's there, but just in the background but ultimately doesn't matter.
Oh I've read into this so deeply 😂 The doom gameplay is great I personally love a good story!
You kind of just described world building as a thing in its entirety. Don't know why you dislike it, but you do you
@@sheehase Never said I disliked it. If anything I was echoing John Carmack's take on story. Doom doesn't shove the story down your throat. 2016 and Eternal are excellent, for me damn near 10/10 perfect games, and IMO would be just as good without the lore tidbits but the fact that they're there make them that much better, especially for those who want them. I personally love how the story kind of takes a back seat to gameplay, while still being really, really interesting (though, again IMO has become a bit convoluted).
@@sproinsIt reminds me of the storytelling technique seen in Metroid Prime. You can skip the world building and shun your Scan Visor outside of vital scans if you want to, nothing’s going to judge you for it. But if you’re curious, your scanner can tell you so much and provide so much context about what you see. It’s part of why I love those games so much. Doom’s world was ripe for the same kind of incidental world building, but none of it was required and none of it was created with that in mind - and that’s okay.
I guess this is why people disliked Doom 3 heavily as it pushed the arcade shooter to the side and became more of a Thriller Story driven story
Personally tho I like stories in games and I love Dark and disturbing stuff so Doom 3 became my favorite game after a I beat it
It's up there in S tier with every other Doom game
This is what I needed! I haven't even played any of the games, but I was interested in the lore and now I can finally fully understand it
You're in for a wild ride.
Oh you gotta play these games. They're legendary. Doom eternal really impressed me when I played it for the first time this year.
And somehow you don't think it's time to go get and play all the titles in this timeline's order? 🤨😏😎👌
I really liked doom 3 and the story
Maybe not as much as eternal but I appreciate how unique it is
You should read the Doom 3 novel adaptation by the game's writer; Matthew Costello.
They are called Worlds On Fire and Maelstrom
Doom3 came out when i was 10 and i was absolutely into this new style of doom because it was the first time since RE3 that i got really spooked. The graphics at that time looked basically photorealistic. The atmosphere and pacing of the game was well made to create lots of tension. Its not the most popular doom to play nowadays because its not all that about action but i very much miss games like that and quake 4.
@@bryandacote8109I thoroughly enjoyed those novels.
@@UltraProchya lot of people are playing doom 3 now
I find it interesting that the first structures created in Urdak and Jekked were almost organic looking white with black orbs. It makes me think of when Hugo Martin mentioned that "some believe the realms of Urdak and Jekked are alive in a way that's incomprehensible to human minds".
Another thing you will notice is that even the super advanced technology almost acts as wallpaper for the organic white structure and black orbs. For example when you look at the room where the Doom Slayer was Imbued with Davoths power, the machine itself has an almost organic look to it, that is just masked by the technology and metal plates. Even the black orbs of the original white structure are apparent even when covered up by the metal plating of the late realms of Urdak and Jekked.
I also find it strange that the Mykers rationale behind sealing away Davoth was because he was being a meanie to the humans in his realm, and that giving the Humans the secret to immortality would somehow danger the rest of reality... So the Mykers locked them up together for eternity... LOL? How does that help the Humans that are allegedly being abused by Davoth? If the Mykers cared about humans that much, why deny them immortality? We are clearly being lied to about this whole thing.
I believe that Davoth was created by a Supreme being from a realm unseen. He was created for a purpose, to create immortal human souls. His job was not to make sure that they lived forever, but that they lived at all. This is why Davoth and the humans in his world were deemed a threat to creation. They wanted to live forever which means that their immortal souls wouldnt be fueling the supreme realm. This is why when the Khan Myker was killed, she said "your actions have jeopardized all of creation". Fuel HAS TO be fed to the supreme realm for it is what fuels existence. I think Davoth wanted to end this cycle that has probably occured for eternity and thats why he was sealed away. Human immortal souls are fuel not just for Urdak and Jekkad, but for the one True Heaven. This is why the sky went red in Urdak when the Doom Slayer killed the Khan. No longer will that fuel be provided and I think this is where the next game will come into play. The Supreme realm where Davoth was sent from will be forced to act since Urdak has been utterly destroyed beyond repair. Will the remaining Seraphim use the engines of creation to make a new dimension? Well.. perhaps that's why the new Doom game is titled "Doom Year Zero".
(CONTINUE IF YOU DARE)
This is extreme speculation and it sounds like Fractile Storyline theory, but... It's possible that the realm where Davoth came from was not "Heaven" as we would know it, but the fallen heaven where the true Lucifer/Satan resides. When Lucifer and the angels fell, they were cast away from God and Heaven. Perhaps Agent Energy is how the fallen heaven is able to remain in existence away from True God. The fallen heaven uses stolen pieces of True God that they stole before they fell, that they used to create dimensions that would provide them with the matirials to create Argent Energy. We see these stolen pieces as the blue hollow human men on the mission Urdak. This is why Hugo Martin said so many times that what is occurring in the game is a ritual, a cycle almost. These pieces were used to create Primevals which the saraphem would then create new dimensions and cast the primevals in there to create new human life that could be harvested, and the ritual begin anew..
With Davoth gone, and his remaining power transferred to the one who killed him, the only one capable of ending the ritual and eternal cycle is the DoomSlayer...
I had the same thought. I noticed the bulbs properly when exploring the Tomb of Souls. I'm hoping we get another DOOM game to explore this.
Hugo, brilliant chonky bastard!
That's a good line!
😍😍😍
As far as I know, they didn't seal of Jekkad because they wanted to help humans, but because they saw to what lengths Davoth would go to to get said immortality. My best guess is that the secret to immortality is actually Argent energy, or something simillar, which would mean that he would probably create worlds, just so he could sacrifice them (the only way you can get Argent is by torturing a being and combining their soul with magic - Wraith energy). Basically: "I sacrificed a world to save a world", type of situation, hence why they said that he was a threat to all creation
@@tomaspirek1623 Correct. Death and tbe harvesting of immortal souls is fundamental to creation. This is why the Mykrs betrayed Davoth and the humans. This is why Samur Mykrr was so intent on keep the agent energy fracture alive during 2016. This could also be why the sky turned red and the violent after we killed the Khan. Because the Khan was providing energy/souls to the realm above all.. The True Heaven.
Soo happy to find soo much souls gathered in one place and enjoying the video above which includes Doom lore one of the best lores of all time for me personally! Keep going More Loregasam 😂😅
It’s really interesting how similar the DOOM and Half-Life stories are. Both are about a secret research facility and accidentally causing an inter-dimensional invasion of Earth.
Half-Life was very much inspired by DOOM. It makes sense why the fandom loves both series
You do know Half-life runs on Dooms source code so doom is Half-life's dad they added physics to the engine
Same goes for Quake they are working on slipgates rather than teleporters and they create a portal to another realm which demonic creatures come out of except they are not hell demons don't know if the realm from Quake was given a name
@@smelkus In Quake you travel to 4 different dimensions, each dimension houses a rune that you have to collect, The first realm is the realm of earth magic known as dimension of the doomed, the second is known as the realm of black magic, the third is the netherworld the realm of hell magic and the fourth is the elder world, the realm of elder magic.

best timeline youtube channel, loved your half life video, i am excited for this one
Wow, thanks! Lemme know what you think!
I like how that by the time of DOOM3 the writers had to resort to alternate timelines within the same universe. And then the 2018 Doom leaned into it by declaring the main protag is the same original doom guy but in the new timeline that seems to have splintered as a result of him being flung back by the mother of demons. So there's three universes and three protagonists but they do not necessarily have each their own timeline. Also I like how it is implied that that despite Earth being in alternate timelines, the Paradise and Hell are still the same for all timelines which technically binds all three narratives together in a sense.
Alternate timelines/universes were not a thing in the original Doom and Doom 3 games. Doom 3 is just retelling Doom 1's events in a more modern engine and is truer to what Id Software envisioned the original Doom to be.
On Stream, Hugo Martin stated that Earth from Doom Eternal = Earth from Doom 2
@@pavelvers3156 Earth in Eternal is the same Earth from Doom 2? So it got invaded twice but Eternal makes it out like it's only happening for the first time.
They really messed the timeline up.
@@MattD402I think time travel is involved here

Doomguy/Doom Marine/Slayer is truly one of most badass yet tragic characters in video games.
He deserves a happy ending.
Also anyone else kinda want a crossover teamup of Slayer and Doom3Guy and/or ROE Marine?
The tragic characters are sadly the ones with nothing to lose and will do anything to stop the people that hurt them. I'd love to see a team up of them.
Doomguy/Slayer is quite the tragic character much like kratos or scorpion they all had a wife and child only to lose them in a tragic situation that left them scared and wanting revenge
Which is why Doomguy/Slayer should had been reunited with his wife, son and pet rabbit daisy
Just a heads up, Hugo Martin himself said that Davoth returned at full power and was further amped by the mech suit. Look up Hugo Martin Doom Eternal playthroughs
Looks like something I missed there. I would have thought he'd be more powerful though!
@@Skyrionn he is. It's just that Doomslayer is basically a balancer against him if that makes sense. He wanted everyone to fear the end, so he wanted to basically rub it in before just ending everything. But since Slayer is basically immune to his reality warping, he had to fight him before he could do anything. Where's the pleasure in revenge if you can't take the time to savor it sort of deal. On top of that Slayer was stated by Hugo Martin to canonically absorb the power of EVERY single foe he's defeated. And to have the ability to amplify his weapons to ridiculous degree. He stated he didn't show anywhere CLOSE to the Slayers actual levels of power, because it would have made the game insanely boring. I mean, where's the fun in someone who one shots everything and is practically untouchable? Fun is in challenge. He did show battlefield removal and time manipulation during the fight however. Hugo also stated that Slayer would be back in the future, but following a more Lovecraftian path. And that he would be facing even greater threats
WOW!! the amount of work you put into this is amazing.
Thank you very much!
This is amazing, i just started watching your doom videos this past week and here a 3 hour one. Merry christmas!
Welcome aboard! Merry Christmas!
Huge Doom fan here. Gotta say, this video was amazing. This is probably my favorite interpretation of the canon of Doom (given Doom never had an official "canon" until Eternal released). Great video, dude! I'm checking out the Half Life one next. 🤙
Glad you enjoyed it! The Half-Life is also a super deep exploration of the timeline.
Me:
oh, Doom lore video? Neat. How long is it? 3 HOURS? Well... I didn't want to watch Lord of the Rings today anyway.
Honoured you'd chose this video over LOTR
this was amazing, a great effort and thoroughly entertaining, thank you!
Thanks for watching!
Very well made!
I believe that as you get older, you start getting more into the story behind.
Christmas came early this year! Thank you Skyrionn!
Merry Christmas!
@@Skyrionn Merry Christmas to you too!
The exposition of the last couple of Doom games flew over my head, and this excellent lore video is well-appreciated. I will say that I still prefer leaving the backstories vague. To me, the games have always been much better with a less-is-more approach when it comes to its story.
I felt the same after I finished Eternal and Ancient Gods for the first time. It's a lot of information to uncover while ripping and tearing.
I personally love more of a story but I know this is something that has split the community.
@@Skyrionn I don't mind a bit of narrative myself. But for games like Doom, I think it's best to leave certain things to the imagination. But I will say that I do like the way the original games are connected to the N64 title and its DLC and he's ultimate fate as the Doomslayer.
What an amazing work of art, you had me on the edge of my seat the whole time, bravo man.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I love your vidoes dude. They're so well crafted and your narration is unique and smooth. Dont ever quit youtube or I will too 😂 Happy Holidays!
Thanks for the super kind comment. I'll continue to make these videos. I love lore and exploring these worlds!
Doom is the kind of game where you can make the dumbest storyline you want while playing and the main story somehow makes less sense.
the bible: eternal
This video made me subscribe keep up the good work! Can't wait to watch more of your videos!
Welcome aboard!
Love this ❤ one thing i never seen mentioned is that one of the logs in Doom 3 mentions a mighty predator that hunted the other demons, in my head canon this is the doom slayer and his presence in the past is what causes these demons to evolve more vicious, powerful forms
If you prefer modern Doom games like if you prefer originall games comment
Both
I will say this even before I see the video : this is fantastic work. This man has been doing a fantastic job at doing lore videos especially for DOOM games, I think there is just one other channel that can match him in this aspect.
I will watch this with great pleasure. Thanks for all your amazing videos my good man !
Best comment. I hope it was as great as you imagined it to be!
@@SkyrionnIt was my good man ! I've been enjoying your lore videos for a long time. Very well put together, very fun to watch and you also have a really good voice for these kind of lore/ documentary style videos
I'm also happy to take suggestions!
@@SkyrionnThat makes you an even better youtuber. But to be honest you cover exactly what I like to watch about games I am interested, so I can hardly think of any suggestion. I can't think of a video you did that does not interest me. I will keep that in mind however !
My God...I want to keep this short but say a lot with very little even though I could write pages on glazing everyone involved with.
- Thank You, Thank you soo much for making this video and I hope you know all the Hard work and the Insane Effort put into this is not taken lightly or unnoticed. Everything about the Overall Objective to providing the "The Doom timeline that long and complicated into a Video I would rather call a Gift.
- The Writing was amazing and engaging the whole way through
- The Nattation is nearly perfect.
- The 100+ Incredibly well done Custom Shots/Scenes were custom made and running (In Engine?) for adding so much to the context and cohesion
- All the 2D Art that was incorporated in the same way that was Dev Art and Possibly some Fan
- The Editing of 3+ that took all those Ingredients and pieced them together that was with a clear direction
- The 1000+ collective man hours that I can only assume was put into this Monster Piece of Amazing Lore (a Visual Nocal IMO being Told to the Viewer in such an great way while the whole time there is Great Visuals right there the entire time to backup the Narrator which is so impactful.
I know the people involved with All the Visuals could have of course made things better but for a great artist/editor/etc, there always comes that time when you have to move on even though your fighting yourself to want to make everything perfect and it usually leads a (feedback loop) where you could spend hours on something so small like...how much contrast should this shot have or with Audio (My Expertise), If I let my brain do what it wants I'll spend an entire night, sitting there tweaking one effect for my Guitar Tone that I would still not 100% happy about! I'm sure some know what im talking about.
-- Anyways, This was F**cking Amazing, one of those Videos that are truly Meant for "Legendary Tier", and it was a long time coming. None the less, The community sorely needed it. The Fans and more importantly, the Non-Fans for bringing in new people in. One more thing. I might sound like an ass but in my opinion, I think think the vast majority of the (DOOM Fans) dont know much about the Lore except some of the Big Ploi Points. But, I admit I knew quite a bit but to my surprise there was a ton of details and things I didnt even know about either. Alight, I gotta finish but I am So Grateful and I hope you and anyone involved reads this and just knows that there handwork, passion. and love for this series is not unseen and many respect and cherish this gift you brought us all.
- Thank You All
This is the best comment I've received so far!
It was a lot of hard work over a month and a half and it seemed to come together pretty well! I also run this channel alone, so all the videos are solo projects. This was a love letter to a series I love. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Most of the footage was from the game with a lot of effort with photoshop, after effects and premiere pro.
Thanks again!
really great work on this, the time line presented made perfect sense to me personally... just glad to see Doom 3 getting some love mainly,
Hi Skyrionn, thanks for making another video that I can relax and fall asleep too! Not to sound negatively, but your voice is supremely smooth and your delivery make for some really easy listening. Thanks again!
You're welcome 😊 I know a lot of people fall asleep to the videos. I see it as a huge compliment
I enjoyed this video from start to finish. Well done and thank you.
Well told, honestly watched the whole thing in one day and enjoyed it, thank you
Man good job on this bro. Made my day. Much appreciated .
Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you Sir. This has been fantastic! Keep up your excellent work.
Thanks, will do!
this is an amazing take on the lore of doom. love it. great video my guy. my favorite games (and im gonna get some shit for this) were doom 2 - hell on earth. im old, and nostalgia grips me. then it would be doom3. then doom eternal, then doom 2016. but theyre all good. all classic. and all pushed video games into an entire new realm. without them, we wouldnt have ANY of the games we have today. they single handedly changed video game history. and im glad to have been here to witness it. cheers!
This is super impressive! Certainly the most expansive and detailed DOOM lore video I've ever watched! Thanks for the info and entertainment!
What a great comment. Thanks for watching the video!
Amazing video. Great work tying it all together!
Thanks a ton! It was a lot of work but it was worth it
Another great video! Really helped me get through my shift these last couple days!
Happy to help. Thanks for watching!
Hell ya. 3 hour video let's go!!! Thanks for your effort!
Enjoy
Great job man. I love the new lore added with the most recent two games, and your videos lay it out very well. Oh, forgot to mention, I can't believe you fit the Doom RPG games into the timeline. Lol, somehow it fit well. Thanks again.
Hey! It was a really tough one to put into the correct order but it finally worked like a jigsaw! Thanks for watching!
You did a great and amazing job on this. Well done sir!
Glad you liked it! Thanks for watching it!
This helped me so much thanks man
Love your videos. Looking forward to seeing a complete lore video like this for the Quake game series from you.
Quake is absolutely something I'll explore deeper.
This was incredible! I've never been the biggest fan of Doom-style gameplay, so I never really got into any of them beyond Doom 3 which I rented on a whim and then proceeded to get stuck with during a week-long snow storm. Never had any idea there was this much lore going on behind-the-scenes! What an amazing feat of world-building that came out of a super basic shooter whose creators themselves admitted didn't really have a story. I wonder what John Carmack thinks of this whole universe 😂
Love this vid dude! Very nice to see your take and interpretation on this series and timeline. (Cant believe an Irishman is siding with a Welshman 😂) jokes aside its been a brilliant three hours through this timeline! Looking forwards to the next vids mate!
Skyrionn is the best lore youtuber out there he always makes everything sound so interesting and he puts so much effort in his videos
Can already tell this is gonna be a 🔥 Vid dawg keep it up
Let me know what you think!
Np 🤙
Great vid dawg enjoyed it
Excellent, running through the series again 🤘🏻👌🏻
Thanks for watching! Enjoy your playthrough!
Beautiful story telling❤. Love this
That's cool and commendable when you pivot into the original game's story and start using low fidelity stuff to explain the story while trying to keep with the look and feel of the old games.
Good work!
it's cool
Fantastic work my friend!
Thank you! Cheers!
I never thought id spend 3 hours watching a video on doom but man was this good. Great work man, very entertaining.
Thanks for watching!
Missed opportunity to say ID
watching this video was the best thing i could have done today, thanks!
I am VERY impressed, how you perfectly are describing and know all those aspects, from all the games parts! You done some SERIOUS research in this regard, it seems! Congrats.!!! Either the work of art and long years of it on the producers, is just remarkable, how they concept all of it, for DOOM & DOOM Eternal! 10 + from me!!!
I admit I watched this in parts, but wow man, great video. Mad respect.
I appreciate that! Thanks for watching it!
As per usual, amazing job Sky. Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
You made this video really well I doubt anyone could do this better
That's very high praise. Thank you!
Wow, insane video. Great stuff man.
Glad you enjoyed it!
amazing breakdown. Loved watching it. got the urge to go through all of the games again.
Glad to hear it! Go for it. RIP AND TEAR
This was an incredible presentation, I haven't played any DOOM games but was always curious about the story. Great Watch
It's absolutely worth a playthrough!
A very good video. Great work. While things like this will always have contradiction, people who have different views, I think you did you great job giving sense of a, and in my eyes, very possible timeline regarding the DOOM lore. Thank you.
Well said! There are so many contradictions and I have noted a few angry comments because I didn't conform to their view of the timeline but it seems I pleased the majority and they have my view.
Hey that was good work, well done !
Thank you! Cheers!
This was one of best videos I have ever watched. 9/10 the pacing felt a bit slow in my opinion but everything else was perfect.
A very well done video. I thoroughly enjoy the flow.
Much appreciated!
Fantastic job man. This is the most comprehensive take on doom to date
Thanks for watching!
