I know there was already a discussion about this earlier in the thread but people seem to be talking about it again, so I guess I'll ask the question.
How do you guys think Doomguy's trailer should go? Personally, I think it should have something to do with him saving Luigi from Hell or something like that, since he straight-up died in an earlier trailer. Seeing him fight alongside (or against) Samus or Snake would be pretty cool too imo.
Alright, as a Dungeon Master and aspiring writer I'm gonna try to do good with this...
Dusk darkens to night as a red portal opens, the edges burning and sizzling, eagerly tearing at the air. Electricity crackles along the portal and suddenly, a black box marked Nintendo shoots from it, closing the portal with a snap. The box falls, leaving a contrail, before landing with a thud on red groud. Scarlet sand half-buries it. We pan up from the box to see a futuristic tower, glowing from the heat of a distant battle.
Explosions obscure our battlefield as a grenade's pin is pulled, and the grenade is thrown. We follow it into a destroyed room where fires rage and alarms blare. A computer screen showing the original DOOM crashes to the floor next to the bomb, fizzling and dying. The grenade explodes and the camera shoots out of the room.
A figure in the smoke raises a heavy, pronged weapon as shadowy enemies circle it. A fireball lights the face of an imp before it is thrown at the mysterious figure. The figure dodges to the side and a blast of blue energy cuts through the smoke and sends the imp flying.
Cut to the box. The imp lands next to it, only its hand and arm visible. Boots clunk closer to the fallen demon, then stop. The camera circles slowly around as the figure holsters its Gauss Cannon. A hand reaches for the box, and the light reveals it is wreathed in green armor.
An over-the-shoulder shot of the figure as it raises the box. Locks click apart and with a hiss, the box falls to pieces and an envelope flutters gently toward the ground. It is snatched from the air, and the visor of the Praetor helmet reflects the Smash logo stamped onto the letter. Behind the envelope, reflected pieces of the box roll across the dusty earth and assemble into a small pad. A portal tears itself into being, lighting up a runic symbol above the visor as the envelope is lowered out of sight. We zoom forward into the figure's eyes as he raises a Super Shotgun and steps into the portal.
Battlefield. Mario sends Link into the blast zone with a smash. Scarlet glows behind him and we hear the
click of the Super Shotgun. We pan past Mario as he turns. The Doomslayer fires, and the *challenger approaching* card plays:
DOOMSLAYER
Rips and Tears!
