DoomzRules Posted February 27, 2016 Xerge said:He probably would've made a better Doom Marine for the Doom movie (which shoudln't exist). My ideal Doom movie would be a mix of Total Recall, Aliens (1986), Event Horizon, Evil Dead II, and Army of Darkness. Event Horizon IS the closest thing to a Doom movie we have at the present moment. It nails everything IMHO. Only thing is it needs Doomguy, and well Phobos, Deimos, and going to the actual Hell dimension. =) 0 Share this post Link to post

I can imagine him having a sadistic personality like Caleb's only when he is really really angry and is succesfully discharging his anger using a very powerful and destructive weapon like the rocket launcher or BFG against a horde of demons, doing that while he has a sadistic grin on his face, like the one he does when he picks up a weapon. Kind of experiencing a sweet revenge. 0 Share this post Link to post
Potatoguy Posted February 27, 2016 Damn this topic really gone far now, hasn't it? IF doomguy had to speak, the best voice actor for him would have to be Morgan Freeman. Just imagine the glory kills, and what he'll say of it! But in honesty, no voice or Bruce Campbell. Spoiler Or Dwayne the Rock Johnson. :P 0 Share this post Link to post
AirRaid Posted February 27, 2016 But Samoan Thor didn't even play the Doomguy in the movie. 0 Share this post Link to post
Gzegzolka Posted February 27, 2016 As I say, and I will say it again - Doomguy should not speak, maybe only have pain sounds. Anything else should be optional mod - where You pick voice sample of Your favorite actor and can play with speaking Doomguy. You love canon - stay with silent protagonist, You have Your own opinion - use modification. 0 Share this post Link to post

HorrorMovieRei Posted February 28, 2016 Huh, so I'm not the only one who thought Max in Fury Road looked like the Doomguy 0 Share this post Link to post
DoomzRules Posted February 28, 2016 I guess he kinda looks like Doomguy. But I always thought Doomguy looked like Arnold Schwarzenegger to be honest. =P Anyway, if Doomguy could speak I'd probably want Dave Wittenberg (the voice actor for Kakashi in the English dub of Naruto) to voice Doomguy. It's just a thought ya know. =3 0 Share this post Link to post

They're trying different things. Making the Doom Guy speak would be to seriously miss the whole point. If you made him like Duke Nukem, the tone would be too silly for the whole "You are Doomed" scenario that's central to the theme. If you made him like Isaac Clarke in Dead Space, ironically, you would make it too serious. Doom hit the sweet spot between super-serious and silly, and the silent protagonist is serious, while not so serious it makes you depressed or takes away from the over-the-top design of the game's weapons, locations and enemies.I hate speechless/mute heroes. Why? Because they don't give a shit about what is going on around. Idea of speechless/mute heroes in that player could associate himself with heroes but two problem: It's not RPG and quite problematic to associate. Them being voiceless doesn't necessarily mean they don't give a shit, merely that they don't express their feelings openly. And no, giving the player the option to imagine the characters personality doesn't automatically make it an RPG, it just gives the player more options with the character.Psychopathy doesn't necessarily entail that a person is evil just that their regard for personal well being is inhibited and perhaps urges. I have yet to encounter a reliable source that confirms your claim, however, I'm willing to concede that there may be such a source somewhere. I currently don't feel like doing a massive amount of homework on a subject that I don't particularly enjoy just for the sake of a discussion I probably shouldn't have started. I will say that being a psychopath wouldn't be the only explanation for a person being emotionally stunted and caring less about personal well being - some people who have experienced a lot of pain and suffering have been known to become emotionally stunted and display less regard for themselves as a consequence, but that doesn't make them psychopaths and it's a gross mistake (and arguably a cruel insult) to consider them such. 0 Share this post Link to post
CreamCheese Posted February 28, 2016 Grunts = okay Anything more = no. This game is meant to be kinda tongue in cheek but not comedic. 0 Share this post Link to post
Xerge Posted March 1, 2016 I just remembered this MOD for Duke Nukem 3D, they gave Doomguy a voice. 0 Share this post Link to post
MistAche Posted March 1, 2016 He should grunt with pain, similar to the Quake II warrior or Sarge from QIII. At full HP or above 100% minor shrugs or grunts, then below 25% tortured howls, and a ruthless death cry. It should also be an option in the menu - full voice, pain, silent Edit* I'll be making more posts when I submit my GZDoom WAD I've been working on for months... long time observer, and Doom fan since it landed, just never posted. 0 Share this post Link to post

Kind of experiencing a sweet revenge. Caleb also isn't that far removed from Duke Nukem, he has a good sense of humor. They both reference Army of Darkness, and Caleb even quotes an Andrew Dice Clay stand-up-comedy nursery rhyme. I think Doomguy being mostly silent works, but much like Silent Bob, would be fun if he unexpectedly says something memorable once in a while. Maybe two or three times in the game. 0 Share this post Link to post

I think that's something I overlooked, I really don't think Doomguy has much sense of humor considering the situation he is in, even his evil grin when he picks up a weapon is not a matter of sense of humor, it's more a matter of sadism and revenge than a joke. 0 Share this post Link to post
MistAche Posted March 2, 2016 I'd really like to see the 'Mug' brought back with this release complete with scowls and^ when finding a new weapon or firing a gun non-stop. I did a thorough search for any posts in regards to this and can't find anything. 0 Share this post Link to post

DoomzRules Posted March 3, 2016 I think Doomguy should be sarcastic, sound sort of laid-back, and not really give a damn for anything that's going on. Of course he's probably angry, but I always picture him sounding like a sly ninja-type guy. Then again that's probably just me. =P 0 Share this post Link to post
