Shouldn't this article be moved to "Doom Marine" or "Doom Slayer"? As far as I can tell, "Doomguy" is only a colloquial name used by fans and not an official identifier. -- Cyberlink420 ( talk) 15:05, 26 July 2019 (UTC)
In an video about the lore it is stated that DOOM 1, DOOM 2, Doom 64, Doom (2016) and Doom Ethernal is the same guy and explains it based on official / canonical information in and around the games. see here --> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vepBNAoTe7c In which relation the Doom 3 Marine stays is open in this explanation. -- Gunnar.offel ( talk) 15:10, 22 March 2020 (UTC)
In the opening paragraphs, there are 2 citations for the following claim:
According to designer John Romero, the Marine is meant to represent the player.
Neither of the linked articles has any source from John Romero stating that that was his opinion or intent. One of them doesn't even mention John Romero's name, and is pure speculation on the subject.
Given what I know of the DOOM franchise, and of the opinions of FPS game designers at the time, I suspect that Romero really did intend that as the article claims. Is there a better source to cite, though? — Preceding unsigned comment added by JMCatron ( talk • contribs) 16:36, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
