"The plot of an FPS game is like the plot of an A-movie, you can do a little bit of it, but it doesn't matter at all." - John J. Brown, co-founder of id Software, developer of the DOOM series, John D. Carmack II
As the founder of FPS games, Doom, born in 1993, is undoubtedly famous in the history of video games. But at the same time of social security, have you ever had similar questions like me: Who am I? Where am I? Why should I be a Social Security demon?
In fact, in addition to the punk rock game culture and the intense combat experience, Doom has several titles that open the door to a magical world for players. Today, I will briefly talk to you about the plot review of "Doom".
The player takes on the role of Doom Guy, a Marine who is exiled to Phobos as cannon fodder for refusing to shoot civilians and maiming his commander. Phobos and Deimos were the experimental sites of the Union Aerospace Corporation (UAC) for chrono teleportation, but due to accidents, Deimos was opened to hell, and the personnel were wiped out by a large number of twisted demons.
Soon, Phobos faced the same life-and-death dilemma. Especially after the demon brutally killed Daisy, the pet rabbit that Doom Guy regarded as his dearest, as a mortal man, he fought his way through the base of Phobos to the alien space where the demons roamed. Finally, after killing the mechanical trolls and mechanical spiders, Hell has no choice but to send Doom Guy back to Earth.
In Doom 2: Hell on Earth, Doom Guy discovers that it has been occupied by demons since returning to Earth, so humans are ready to "wander Earth". Of course, the demons are also firmly occupying the human spaceport at this time.
The protagonist joins the survivors and kills all the demons in the process of carrying out their escape plan, and in order to put an end to the demonic invasion once and for all, Doom Guy kills the other demon reinforcements who are preparing to invade the earth, and discovers the clone of Hell, the deepest part of hell, Icon of Sin.
After the bloody battle, Doom Guy killed the Icon of Sin, who could summon demon armies constantly, and humanity won again, and the portal was heavily guarded, and the demon had no way to come to Earth through the portal.
"Doom 3: Evil Resurgence" is a soft reboot of the world view of the previous two games, and adds terrifying monsters and various annoying jump scares that make players go crazy, thus making the overall tone of this game even more eerie.
In 2145, the UAC in the first "Doom" became the largest supertrust in human society and started the colonization of Mars. While conducting secret experiments, the UAC Mars base accidentally excavated the far gate "Soul Box" and opened the portal to hell.
Shortly after Doom Guy arrives at the Martian base, the base is invaded by demons. As his investigation deepens, he discovers that the Chief Scientist, Dr. Malcolm Betruger (German Betruger means "traitor"), has been corrupted by demons and is trying to bring the powers of Hell into reality. Alone in the dark and oppressive Martian facility, players use a variety of weapons to fight demons, and eventually go deep into the heart of hell to destroy the Soul Box, stopping Bertrug's plans - but the mastermind behind it, Betrug, has disappeared.
23 years after the birth of the "Doom" series, id Software has hard-rebooted the entire game world.
In Doom 4, UAC, under the leadership of Chief Scientist Dr. Samuel Hayden, attempts to solve the Earth's energy crisis by using the energy of hell "Argent". They built the "Argent Tower" as an energy transmission hub, and sent expeditions deep into Hell on several occasions to bring back demonic samples for study. In it, Hayden brings back from Hell a mysterious sarcophagus that houses the legendary Doom Slayer, a warrior who single-handedly slaughtered Hell in ancient times.
When UAC scientist Olivia Pierce was bewitched by demons and took the initiative to open the gates of hell, the Mars base was instantly invaded by demons. At a critical juncture, Hayden unleashes the Slayer in the sarcophagus. When Doom Slayer wakes up, he wears his own armor and slays demons along the way in an attempt to close the portal to Hell. On the way, he uncovers Olivia's betrayal - she voluntarily accepts demonic powers. After destroying the Aquin Energy Tower and defeating Olivia, Hayden suddenly snatches the "Staff of Judgment", an ancient artifact that the protagonist has obtained, and teleports the protagonist to an unknown location, hinting at an even greater conspiracy in the future.
Doom: Eternal continues the plot of the 2016-year reboot, and the Earth is suffering a large-scale invasion from the demons of hell. Doom Slayer returns from exile in another dimension to discover that humanity has been slaughtered by demons, and that the mysterious alien race "Maykrs" are behind it. They made a deal with the Lord of Hell to maintain their own immortality by extracting human souls to create "Yajin Energy".
Doom Slayer fights back in the mobile fortress Fortress of Doom and makes his way back to his hometown of Noor's Ring, uncovering the Magimer Angel's conspiracy to use the Night Guard and humans as energy tools. In battle, he reclaimed the artifacts "Demon Cauldron" and "Sword of Judgment", and defeated the corrupted angelic leader "Empress Kanak". Eventually, he destroys the "dimension", the core of the connection between hell and reality, but the true identity of the artificial intelligence VEGA (who is actually the creator of the Enchanter Angel, "Heavenly Father") and Dr. Samuel Hayden's ambitions remain in suspense.
As the third installment of the modern "Doom" series, according to the official introduction, "Doom: Dark Ages" is a prequel to the critically acclaimed "Doom 4" and "Doom: Eternal", which depicts the magnificent cinematic origin story of Doom's Fury. Players will take on the role of a blood-soaked Slayer as they take on the armies of Hell in a never-before-seen and dangerous medieval war.
Throughout the "DOOM" series, the charm of the series is that by allowing players to control Doom Guy, a madman who terrifies demons, ignoring the plan of action is to destroy everything in sight, and using high-frequency words such as "kill", "slaughter", "demon" and "dry over" to get the ultimate pleasure of social security.
