That makes sense. I may have been looking at it too neurodivergently and analyzing it in terms of realism, while ignoring the fact that he’s fighting demons with SMGs for hands.
I suppose for the average person, a look at this poster would evoke feelings of coolness and inspiration. Which was likely the artist’s intent.
I suppose another tagline for it could be “To the last breath!”
Till shade is gone, till water is gone,
Into the Shadow with teeth bared,
Screaming defiance with the last breath,
To spit in Sightblinder’s eye on the Last Day.
No, the demon to his left is shooting a fireball right at his face.
Oh shit, I see it now. Yeah he needs backup, stat!
Looks like the guy in the background is trying!
Yeah but he needs to learn how to carry his weapon. He’s not ready to raise it at a moment’s notice.
Honestly the “last stand” aesthetic may appear inspiring, but what I see here is broken arrow.
Two guys can’t take on a hoard of demons that large, no matter how tough they are.
Still badass though.
Yes, it’s FAR more “rule of cool” than practical! Maybe these two are some of the random corpses you find rather than Doomguy himself.
