Reboot Doomguy hasn’t been a space marine for almost a decade now. He’s always been a Titan sent by gods.

Anyone remember when Doomguy was a Space Marine?

There’s at least one audiolog in Eternal that suggests he is, against all odds, mostly human. I don’t know if they might be retconning that.

That explains it. I grew up with the old stuff where he was just angry

Honestly that’s a way better story

Well, I mean he still resembles some Space Marines I know of.

He still is, but as he’s become a kind of mythical figure in gaming history he has also become so in universe.

Yeah, the gameplay looks awesome. But the story seems dumb. But then again Doom did come from a dungeons and dragons campaign.
In the end the gameplay has always been the more important part of the Doom games.
