New(?) Easter Egg for Doom Eternal

So there's a new easter egg that's recently discovered on reddit and twitter, where you go to the rune screen and press the chainsaw button (C for PC, not sure the console's button for them are) four times, you hear a chainsaw rev and this will pop out. I can confirm this after taking a screenshot myself ^{check out my new graphics card yo}

So what's this referring to? Or rather, who?

That's right. Click on her image to go to her channel.

How the thing is activated, now in video form.

Now thats wholesome.

Wholesome streamer that's make fun jokes playing doom with fans

…and it straight-up got removed in a new update.

I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if it was because people actually complained about their “SOOPER SIRIUS DEUM GAEM” having any kind of visible “weeb trash” references.

I honestly remember at one point a few years ago where I suggested the idea of a Doom anime in a Doom Facebook group and half of the replies were jeering at me because… they didn’t want their manly man game to be “tainted by moeshit and pretty boys”.

I don't think that's it. There was very little hostility towards this reference when it was found. I rather looks like that some higher up at id doesn't like anime and ordered for it to be removed. Whatever it is, it's a rather whack move to remove it so quickly. 

Yeah. So much for being wholesome.

And it got removed in latest update.
F

I heard it may have been because of copyright or something?

But i don't think Doog is really owned, it's just a meme that could be applied to something else outside of the context.

I still wonder if Korone would at some point dip more into Doom and even get into wads, so she could even play Japanese Community Project of all things.

Its not copyrighted as far I know.
But they wont give any chances for some legal dispute.

I hope she got to see it before they pulled it. In this clip she expresses skepticism about it being real and was looking forward to trying it herself. Major bummer if they pulled it before Karone got to experience it!

Probably something to do with Zenimax Microsoft not wanting to get in trouble with China because of Hololive.

I have no problem with anime references in Doom. What surprised me was that user being the one to get referenced.

Well, Guts from Berserk got referenced somewhere with a Picture of a missing dog, only related because fans tend to reference as equals with DoomGuy.
And Korone for being somewhat recognized among Doomers.

Aah, I see.

Wow, that's cool. Here's an image for the curious.

That's a shame. I wish they hadn't removed it.

Considering Hololive is ready to cut loose from their CN branch I think this is not the case.

DOOG wasn't really a copyrighted thing in the first place, so this removal kinda strikes me odd.
