Great point, I don't know how I forgot about that. In all fairness though, it's also weird to me that Banjo is a Microsoft rep. It's a very similar case to Doomguy, because I consider Banjo a Rare rep, yet he is technically a Microsoft rep. I consider Doomguy an id Software rep, yet he is technically a Bethesda rep. We live in strange times.
Actually, if Doom Slayer were to get in, the copyright characters would probably say ZeniMax Media for him.
Less kill, more 'ripped out from his body'
Seems about right considering that Zenimax owns Bethesda as well, i'm pretty sure Zenimax was the company that bought id. Everyone assumes it was Bethesda, since they are also owned by Zenimax. So that would make Bethesda a sister studio, and not the company that owns id.
Like you mentioned, they could do it in a very similar way as the Ridley reveal trailer. I doubt there would be blood though, even if the whole scene was nothing but shadows.
Yeah, just like how Joker's All Out Attack had to have blood be replaced with stars even though they are silhouettes.
I dunno, man. 4chan leaks are always sketchy. Although, the stage choice for Doom Slayer is interesting, making it a WAD. But would low-poly stages with sprites really work in this scenario? I know we have the N64 stages, but just making them flat out WAD-based...I dunno. There’s a difference between N64 graphics and Doom WADs, and the latter seems pretty out of place for a Smash stage. But what do I know? People would think Mementos would be boring before it was revealed and look how they did it.
As much as I want Doom Guy in Smash Bros, I don't believe it since it's from 4Chan. Sadly we won't know if this is true or not until Autumn rolls around.
I'm calling this rumor a fake.
Sounds to good to be true, which means it probably is. If the Doom stage was named smash.wad, i'd probably literally die.
"Leaks" really love Doomguy huh?
Actually, Tamagotchi IS a video game. Because one of the workers of Digimon claimed that Digimon started and I quote him, "Digimon started as an LCD game." AKA, Tamagotchi.
I think smash.wad, Agumon and Bandana Dee (and just getting a free extra - which makes no sense on Nintendo's end) give it away.
Doomguy being the most rational thing in that leak is hilarious to think about. I find Bandana Dee to be very suspicious, considering the fact that he's already a spirit. I'm under the impression that spirits deconfirm characters, at least until proven otherwise. Piranha Plant didn't have a spirit until he was revealed to be a fighter. That's weird because every other common Mario enemy had spirits already, all of them except Piranha Plant of course. Then Piranha Plant gets revealed and he gets a fighter spirit, so there's obviously some correlation. Bandana Dee is already a spirit, I feel like if he was a fighter then he wouldn't have a spirit already.
I do think if a character has a spirit, it means they were passed over for playability (barring any possible future passes), but even if that isn't the case, I just think Bandana Dee is a red flag on any leak simply because Sakurai doesn't appear to give two ****s about that character, despite the popularity. There's a lot of precedent for Sakurai looking past Kirby stuff he didn't have a hand in, and I think it's clear that extends to BD. People go on about FE, but that's the actual Sakurai bias at play.
1) What makes you think that that opinion is Sakurai's?
One of the workers of Digimon Survive said that Digimon started as an LCD game (AKA, Tamagotchi). So Tamagotchi are in fact gaming handhelds.
Nope, that thread doesn't exist. It's all in your head Luigi...
Okay, Tamagotchi's count as games, fine. Though using R.O.B. as an argument is silly because it's still Nintendo.
I know, just saying. But yeah, perhaps you're right. Doom Slayer has a good chance to be in Smash after all.
Yeah I think it'd be too spammy. You could just sit there and press the b button over and over. Not very fun for the opponent.
Speaking of which, if the following were to be his official Smash poster, who would stand in for the demons and other characters?
That's a good idea, I couldn't tell you any replacements though. All I can say is, if Doomguy really is in. Then I would like to see his poster involve Mario in some way. I grew up with Mario and Doom so seeing them together would be huge for me. Maybe they could have his poster be him fighting the original 8 or something of that nature. If I don't get a poster like that it's fine, just having him in the game is enough for me.
Yeah I'd put Galeem in the middle with all the shadow puppets in place of the other angels and demons. Like the Angels replaced with Galeem's puppets and the Demons replaced with Dharkon's puppets.
I can see one of the workers of id Software make some illustration art regarding Doom Slayer vs the Smash cast. Like what Kouhou (Persona 5) did with Joker's illustration.
The teen rating is pretty much because Dragon Quest 11 is rated teen. That's why there are two separate age ratings.
