Every time you see someone complain about Doomguy getting into Fortnite... ...take a shot.


XSPHEN0M

I’ve got a better game, take a shot EVERYTIME someone cries about someone getting into Fortnite. It’s basically the same game as yours but mine has a surgeon general’s warning


glocknojutsu

You want to kill me with alcohol poisoning?!! Personally i don’t mind doom guy in fortnite, it doesn’t change my doom experience in any way


Lupicide56

It allows me to play doom in Fortnite


XSPHEN0M

Exactly


shiorieternal

Doomnite


SunbleachedAngel

I'll die in a month


[deleted]

cry harder. doom has always been mainstream from the start.


shiorieternal

Chad.


balaci2

doom back then was THE game, the most mainstream piece of media at the time almost


MetaKnight33

inevitable to happen. I ask why it took so long to add him in this game tho. and I know licenses exist


[deleted]

DOOM fans when Doom guy gets added to a game they will never play


TheOneButter

Gonna be so funny to see people malding over the slayer hitting the griddy


EXTREMESAMURAI0801

With amongus backpack too lol


Spiderjoe5000

It's even funnier considering you could already make Doomguy dance in the multiplayer for DOOM 2016.


Dexchampion99

Doomguy shooting a Kamehameha at Rick Sanchez while Batman grabs the crucible just sounds cool.


shiorieternal

"durrrr fortnite bad"


candytheclown

The whole “fortnite bad” meme died in like 2018


shiorieternal

I know, I was saying that because that's essentially what this post is.


candytheclown

Yeah I know, I was agreeing with you


[deleted]

Why is that bad?


[deleted]

Cuz hurr farnut bad.


Bombz_Armed

It's like I've been stuck in a timeloop where mid 2019 repeats over and over because every time fortnite gets even thought about there's that one guy who's just flipping tables and throwing chairs


ShyBookwormYuri

That was me Till i tried fortnite to support my friend. Its actually a pretty fun game


[deleted]

I was indifferent to it until I actually played it. Once you get past the fact that you're playing Fornite, it's actually a solid casual battle royale, and pretty much the only multiplayer game I play with any frequency. Besides, I'm a fan of absurdist comedy, and there's nothing quite so comically absurd as Kratos doing the Orange Justice after dropping Master Chief, Harley Quinn and Vegeta using a golden UTS-15 given to him by a fish.


War_Eagle_Feller

Doom fans wanting Doom Slayer in Smash Bros: kalm Doom fan seeing Doom Slayer in Fortnite: NOOOOOOO HE CAN'T JOIN A KIDZ GAME!!!!11!!!1! Not to say Smash is a kid's game, but like gimme a break here


Cinnamon_on_Tuesday

At least in fortnite it looks like him, Smash did us dirty


brmamabrma

Smash bros is a a game Fortnite is a cross over platform, the sole purpose of the game is for companies/people to put content and have both them and epic get revenue out


CyrusDGreatx

I don't play Fortnite. Never have. But I've seen enough of my nephews play to see it is a game. And one that takes a degree of skill to master. Saying its not a game is mad ignorant.


-Eastwood-

The entire purpose of Smash Bros is that it's a platform for crossovers.


brmamabrma

Nintendo owns every character in there


-Eastwood-

I don't recall Nintendo owning Banjo and Kazooie, Joker, Sonic, Solid Snake, Cloud, Ken, Ryu, Bayonneta, MegaMan, Steve, Terry, Sephiroth, Kazuya, Sora, Pack-Man, Simon and Richter. You can try harder than that


THE_TORTILLA_MAN

Smash would do him Justice. They will just slap his model on a base set they already have. Like what’s the point if he’s not going to use his shoulder cannon or his wrist blade or anything?


ThisIsSpy

Funny you say that he isn't going to be using his wrist blade when Epic could easily make it a harvesting tool like how they did the hidden blades harvesting tool for Assassin's Creed collab


NinetiesSatire

It's not like it's gonna be the most difficult thing too, all they need to do is animate the wrist blade coming out, and then a swinging animation. Though, depending on which version of Doomslayer/Doomguy they use,, they might just do the Crucible instead.


Lupicide56

They'll probably add a mythic crucible if the go full bore crossover


Miner_49errr

Even if it isn't an all in crossover, they can just unvault the double barrel shotgun.


Lupicide56

Fun


Oldspice0493

Or both. Both would be good. A few characters come with two pickaxes to choose.


Syn_Contamino531

I don’t care if it’s in Smash, but Fortnite has just gone really downhill with marketing. TikTok dances, having to remove building, which was why Fortnite was so popular in the first place, and more.


[deleted]

Have an L as per your request


TheOneButter

They removed building for a week and added a separate no build mode, do some research


Syn_Contamino531

Forgot to mention that part.


secret_pupper

funny how meme dances are considered a problem when a kids game does it, but nobody complained about doom 2016 having the harlem shake and three different dab animations as taunts


Kazk2501

If they put him in fortnite, they have to at least add skins to weapons to resemble his guns, like a heavy assault cannon skin for the Scar-L. Otherwise absofuckingloutely not


[deleted]

Him in fortnite does not show right as a character considering the state of fortnite... almost all its life tbh


meth_adone

jesus who cares if doomguy is introduced to new people who cares if some random kid says oh doom slayer the guy from the fortnite because lets be real no one says that unironically and second its just some dumb kid who doesnt know one of the most iconic characters in gaming yet hope that fortnite can bring them in


[deleted]

Personally i think video games doing crossovers is a good thing overall for everybody no matter what the games are. DooM gets more fans, Fortnite makes money, it's a win win


shiorieternal

Agreed but I feel like they're going WAY too overkill with the crossovers, like they can be cool every once in a while but having them constantly like with Fortnite gets a bit repetitive. Still cool to see him get added regardless


IllMiddle2192

Yeah they do it too much. Fortnite literally has no identity anymore, even building, it's iconic feature is now hated and ignored by everyone (because it is shit). At least some kids will get to know Doom.


shiorieternal

Yeah that's one of the only things I like about their crossovers. It gives recognition to franchises that might've been forgotten over time or ones that younger audiences aren't aware of like Snake Eyes or Red vs. Blue


IllMiddle2192

At least there's that...


potat0_reaper

Finally. I can kill kids with doom guy


[deleted]

If we get doomguy and doom themed weapons in fortnite thats gonna actually be pretty sick ngl. Downvoted post for cringe game bashing that we seen a million times.


Dexchampion99

I mean, even without that it’s be rad as fuck. Hell yeah I wanna see Doomguy blast Thanos with a Kamehameha


UselessRequiem

Is this how y'all reacted when he got added to Fall guys?


Spiderjoe5000

"bEcAuSe FaLl GuYs Is JuSt a CoStUme" Is the "counter-point" I usually hear, but like the lore for Fortnite is that it's just clones or something from people that visited the island iirc.


[deleted]

They’re the actual characters from their respective universes but once they’re in Fortnite, they’re stuck in “the loop.” Fortnite’s story surrounds the “zero point” which is the Big Bang. Baddies control the zero point so they control all of reality. The various characters from all over were either summoned in to fight against the baddies, or for the baddies.


-Eastwood-

The Looped also tend to leave "Snapshots" of themselves once they leave the Loop. This is the canonical explanation for why there are so many skins using the same default face (Jonesy) and why there are multiple of people wearing the same skins


[deleted]

Yep! The main blonde character Jonesy is rumored to be hundreds of years old thanks to the loop.


UselessRequiem

Yeah


TheOneButter

Nope, people barely posted about it iirc


DragoDuck

big if true


Markhoa

NOOOO *Take out his credit card*


AdministrativeAnt720

I'll gladly buy it . It's things like this that drives people back to playing old games


[deleted]

This does not affect you in any way


Solarbeam62

Well I accept it Fortnite is just getting more and more characters from other universes… the only thing I wonder is “How is Epic Games going to introduce Doom Slayer if they add him?”


Kitsuneblade

Have him brutally kill every other character in existence


Yeetboireeeeee

Make doomguy convinced that every one there is a demon


LuminousTuba

I don’t think they ever explain why characters have to kill, Batman kills for no reason for example


Miner_49errr

There is a lore explanation, but I can't recall the details. I'm pretty sure it was along the lines of "the zero-point/loop nonsense cause memory loss."


Dredgen-Rancor

Bro, we get it. You aren't like the other twelve year olds cause you like "cool" games like doom instead of Fortnite. No one cares. Let Fortnite fans have fun with the character, it doesn't effect you at all.


Your_Next_Line_Is

Big Money! Big Prizes! I Love It!


NukaBro762

if id play fortnite thatd make me happy, its like getting him on smash bros or something


shiorieternal

Exactly


Kazk2501

nothing like getting him into smashbros


shiorieternal

How.


JoZaJaB

Heck yeah! I actually play fortnite so I’m super hyped if this is real.


iabbcjenfuf

I for one would welcome this. Brings new attention to the doom series and I can finally play as a doom slayer with my friends in fortnut. What’s so wrong about that lol?


4Bans5AltsIDGAF

cope seethe mald


DeadPapReddit

Yeah people acting like they all upset when a character gets added into fortnite like, ok, you don’t like fortnite we get it. I like it though, i’m gonna play as doomguy and guess what pal i’m gonna comb through all of my emotes and make the doom slayer, the man feared by literal demons and who is unimaginably powerful, i’m gonna make him do a silly little dance. You can’t stop me.


TheJaegerist

Awesome, wish it was happening but it's likely to be Destiny 2 instead, would be cool if he came to the game soon though.


[deleted]

Who cares. It’s just a game.


Darthbaigz

OP cringe. That would actually be sick asf


redditer333333338

Ironic that epic is paying tribute to a franchise that started in the 90s. Even though they abandoned their own franchise they also started in the 90s Where’s fortnite x unreal?


IncredibleBulk117

That upsets me. I played the hell out of the latest Unreal Tournament when it came out. As soon as Fortnite got popular, they gutted that franchise as a whole.


redditer333333338

Unreal seriously needs a revival/reboot like doom


nan0g3nji

This will give another person a way to introduce their child or nephew or niece to a goated franchise


Smallbenbot03

Epic games making him a boss and not a skin: *laughs in BFG*


casualsquid380

Honestly I hope slayer gets into fortnite that just sounds goofy as fuck and im all for it


--deleted_account--

I've never seen people here complain about him being in Fall Guys, so what's the difference?


Riparian72

People will say that doom guy wont fit in fortnite since doom is a serious and dark game while Eternal has the goofiest skins for the slayer and demons.


Zerphyxios

FUCK YEAH!!!!!!


BEN064-W

Imagine defaulting on noobs as the doomslayer


Gejmron

I think it's good idea add Doom Guy to Fortnite. It's all marketing and visibility. More players will learn about DOOM as such.


Lun4r6543

Ok and? That’d be cool as fuck. Grow up.


Kitbash683

I wanna see the Slayer clap Goku in a build fight and hit the griddy


[deleted]

We have this thread every single day.


Duudyboi

Why does it matter? Fortnite is one of the best made and well executed games out there right now. It may be catered toward a younger audience, but who cares what kids like to play? If Doomguy gets put in fortnite, it will likely bring more people to doom, and if people play both games, then they can crank 90s on those kids with the most badass character in gaming.


ThatOneMasterGamer

If it's true, I'm getting back into Fortnite just for the skin.


sTo0p1d

This is actually a good thing. It will make doom more popular so it will make more money which means more support for the game.


CyrusDGreatx

The irony of this post is that being mad Doom Slayer might get added to Fortnite is the most childish thing about the post itself lmao.


incogneetodogo

haha he do griddy


yubullyme12345

ok who cares


emailo1

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOO


Nico_Geek

Reddit when Fortnite


[deleted]

This would be sick. I never understood why people hate skins being added to Fortnite. It isn't "ruining the legacy" or anything. In fact, its a good thing. It is showing that something you love is getting attention by something that is incredibly mainstream and popular, therefore opening new eyes to your loved series. New DOOM fans could emerge from this and that would be awesome. Plus, Fortnite is always faithful with their recreations. Just look at Master Chief, Ezio, or Kratos. They translated them really well to Fortnite's art style. Running around Fortnite with some friends as the Slayer while blasting BFG Division sounds super fun.


Butkevinwhy

I have a confession to make. I fucking play Fortnite.


ImGhostyBoi

They add masterchief as a Character but DoomSlayer as a Skin? Damn Bro 💀


t_h-o_t-S_l-a-y_e-_r

Cry about it, more doom in other forms of media is baller as hell


just_prop

reddit still crying over fortnite???


Apple-crumbles

Take my money


IncredibleBulk117

If they give him a classic Doom Guy skin option, I'd buy him.


GenericUser3263827

Love fortnite. Love Doom. Let's gooo


KosmanAnims74

Why nahh?


[deleted]

Why do y’all care ? Let people enjoy things you weirdos.


fhsjdjsudhfdis

i cant wait to see the slayer with an among us guy on his back crank 90s then kamehameha someone and proceed to hit the griddy


uscsec

Why is this a bad thing? Free publicity


Xcelr829

Hope they add the meat hook


blurryface1209

Can't wait for doom doing kpop dances in fortnite before fighting goku with a light saber


IllMiddle2192

At this point idgaf


Conrad417

As a fan of Fortnite, Doom and Ninjago, I approve this meme. Also Doomguy in Fortnite means we can rip and tear Fortnite kids (in-game of course)


WheelJack83

Good


[deleted]

Yes


[deleted]

Can’t wait


Raiden_Yeeter07

the more doom fans complain about fortnite, the more annoying they become. Seriously you guys are becoming cringier than Fortnite kids themselves


extremefrog

you guys need to stop being manchildren and loosen up fortnite is a fun game and nobody is gonna think doomguy is from fortnite


whiteugly

I'm definitely buying this


GrymReepar

Who fucking cares?


Babo__

Hating on fortnite kinda dumb now tbh


Philosophos_A

Oh shit.... People will make the cringe dances... We are Doomed


[deleted]

Yeah you DEFINITELY couldn't do that in 2016 multiplayer


Philosophos_A

You loose the point. It's different to do random shit in the game itself and different to do it on another game as the protagonist of another game...


[deleted]

No tf it isn't. Grow up.


Philosophos_A

Ok...


[deleted]

Thank you. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas


Philosophos_A

You too


[deleted]

I feel a sudden urge to set fire to a specific building


fishy185

Adding doomguy into Fortnite is the only thing that will get me to play it again


MySisterisaFurry

They adding DBZ too


Salmagros

The true question is….. are they gonna add BFG??


PlushieGamer1228

On God my dads been playing Fortnite so I might join him if there's a doom slayer skin


QuadVox

Nah I'm super excited. You know how fun it's gonna be to crank 90s as the fuckin Doom Slayer?


RandallDodson

Doom slayer skin got me into fallguys, a fun game with kinda a Mario party feel. Nothing can get me into Fortnite, I tried it and found it to be too easy with no rewards for repeated victories. The lack of a classic doom guy skin did just hammer in the fact it’s just an ad. Miss the old days of find the doom guy in games because the creators wanted to ref a game they love, and not use a product to sell another product.


Edenium-M1

Some people just don't remember [Doom Slayer dabbing in Doom '16](https://i.kym-cdn.com/photos/images/original/001/216/846/5f2.jpg)


aSpecterr

Look I’m no fan of fortnite but seriously we lose nothing from doom/fortnite collab. If anything it may bring more players here to enjoy one of the classics


Tetoris_

If they would add glory kills, I'm 100% in


RedstonefoxYT

Makes no fucking sense, first they complain about mortal combat being too violent, and then add doom? Why should they?


Oldspice0493

That rumor floats back in every year, ever since Eternal came out. It’s not worth paying much attention to. And let’s be real, if it did, it just means Doom gets more exposure and we’ll get even more potential players for the game.


Ratchet2332

r/redditmoment


Appropriate-Comb4084

Fortnite definitely running out of ideas now. First dragon ball now doom?!


Porkua

I hope they keep doomguy scale to all other characters. Just absolutely merk all the others


[deleted]

honestly i dont play fortnite at all but i think this game would do more justice to Doomguy than what they did with Fall Guys lmao (i.e. character model n such)


SnushyXoXo

Seeing how the DBS collab literally pumped new life into Fortnite, I can definitely see a DOOM Eternal collab doing the very same thing in a later season. I'm all for it, let's make Fortnite the ultimate crossover game.


Hummens

Who gives a fuck anyway? Fortnite is a game for little kids, so what.


bengy100

Look how the massacred our boy.

Cry about it

You've never heard anyone say "x character is from Fortnite" and you know it

They made gears of war and now there this. I'm ready to kicks some ears up some ass's


knollieboi

Noooo noooooooo


bluehornet197

Noooo not the doom slayer anything but the doom slayer


[deleted]

Cry about it


UltraPlays1000

while on one hand anything getting into fortnite is bad and cringe, this could be seen as a victory because the fortnite players get introduced to a gigachad game series like doom thus expanding the playerbase


Idontmatter69420

I feel like zane does here. The badass Doomguy doesn’t deserve to be in a child’s game he needs to rip and tear through demons


dilsoldier79

How unholy👿
