Yes, I'm reviewing Part 2, just be Patient. This video came out ~2 months after its Release - It'll take time, but I'd rather be a bit late with my Review than rush it. Also I've already been it on Ultra Nightmare. Sentinel Hammer is a little busted. Errors + Corrections: - The Intro Music was by Levy, not Hulshult Music is subjective and I know it's a topic lots of folks are passionate about. Please leave your kindly worded responses to my opinions on the soundtrack below, and I will try to engage in a polite debate with you about it Also please understand - I loved Levy + Hulshult's soundtrack, I just have critiques for how it does and doesn't sound like a Doom Soundtrack. Criticism doesn't mean I didn't like it.

@Alpha Pack Member #1 yep completely agree. He's painfully unfunny especially! But at least that is subjective. Everything else is fact. Awful channel, doesn't deserve so much success. The way YT facilitates low quality content creators is frustrating to see sometimes
@Alpha Pack Member #1 midnight has clickbait titles with zero relevant content. It's annoying whenever I see his videos pop up while searching for info on Ancient Gods Part 2.
Doom Eternal has this effect on me that even when I milk the content of the game dried for weeks and uninstall it, whenever anyone mention the game or there’s a video talking about Doom Eternal, I always ended up reinstalling it and play it for weeks again
David levy did the best soundtracks he did equally good to mick I actually think mick Gordon wouldn’t have a clue of what to do with ancient gods because his music was epic but sometimes it was a bit too much take bfg division for example it sounds godlike until eventually you loose the mood and it becomes a bit annoying
@@blitz8645 oh it means that the marauder was calling the slayer a usurper of the dark lord. Because marauders are very high ranking demons, they would know how the dark lord looks. The slayer was created by the makyrs, and he calls him a false idol.
I like how in your first Doom videos you were still playing on Hurt Me Plenty, and now you're comfortably running around on Nightmare. Way to go, Mr. TravGuy
15:04 The best usage for Unmaykr is shooting one shot by mistake when you wanted to shoot BFG, and then having 29 bfg ammo that's just reminding you of your failure
Dude, I feel you on that one room in The Holt. There's something about it that throws me off every time. LOVE your video here. You really know your stuff, and I was entertained the whole way even though I've played this DLC endless times. It's rare for me to watch someone else's Doom Eternal video that actually makes me appreciate the game even more than I already do. Cheers! (I also truly hope the dark lord boss fight turns out like an extreme version of Jacob)

3:19 that’s not a synth, that’s a lawnmower, Mick Gordon heard one while working on “The Only Thing They Fear Is You” he then recorded one then raised the pitch
"The double Marauders tend to split up on their own" HA! Oh how I wish they did that to me. In my playthroughs they stuck together like glue. I could just about do a ballista-SSG combo starter before the other would jump in the way with his shield, so I had to whittle them each down much more slowly
I'm very late to your comment but goddammit the double Marauder fight on the bridge in AG2 made me wanna jump off the ledge. The one with the screechers
I'm not gonna lie, TH-cam has been recommending this channel for me for a while now, and after watching all your Doom videos, and getting that oldschool JonTron vibe, seeing the production quality and overall artistic direction the channel has, it amazes me it only has less than 7K subs. Can't remember the last time I was this hooked for 30+min videos, and so many of them. Really hope to see you grow, my dude. You got some real potential here.
As for why Samur knew, it's explained in the Codex. Samur was the Father's right hand. He has been documenting EVERYTHING since the beginning. Even the knowledge of demons had faded into obscurity for the later Maykrs, to the point that even the Khan Maykr didn't know what they were until Doomguy came along. But Samur knew it all. He was probably the last of the ancient Maykrs the Father first created. So there's that.
33:40 So why do the Maykr Angels have that face? Those faces are even engraved on some structures in the Sentinel Cities. And then there’s the naked Maykr in the pool of Urdak. I’m pretty sure that IS their natural face
His mistake. It is indeed their true face. Their armor itself might be their needs to slow down the transfiguration. Remember, they were "dying", that's why they need Argent in the first place.
There's also that makyr in the big vat with no armor. Pretty sure they just wear the armor to look more appealing to other races. Plus it might be a reference to angels being depicted as beautiful and human like when bionically correct angels are these monstrous crazy looking things.
i have respect for Mick, David, And Andrew all 3 of their work is fantastic and i cant pick a favourite since theyre music just fits where it is in the game.
The genuine fear he had when seeing the spirit marauder is so funny to me i know he was acting but i really wish i could see his genuine reaction to a spirit marauder
32:06 This never fails to make me smile. I like to think that Intern is just a massive fanboy towards The Slayer. I've played this DLC multiple times and this one cutscene is the one I NEVER skip just because of that tiny kinda cute moment.
Overthinking with that theory at the end, Earth, Hevean & Hell exist as separate planes of reality, alternate dimensions linked together. The Dark Lord, is Hell's alternate of The Doom Slayer. While most likely The Father, is Hevean's Alternate of the Doom Slayer
Andrew's blood swamp track is my favourite in all of modern Doom's. I think it really compliments the nature of the level. It's not just going through the motions of being the slayer, it's an actual trial by combat type thingy. A landmark of hardships. The song at it's heaviest heights emphasises this. At least that's what i take from it. Totally see what you're saying though in relation to the franchise as a whole. It *is* just a djent style song and not much more at the end of the day. Those fucking build ups though...
With all due respect, music in any game is one of the most important parts of it, right next to game control, graphics, and story, so it's perfectly natural for you to feel that way.
My personal theory is that The Wretch and The Betrayer are one in the same, since The Betrayer's hammer gives me some blacksmith vibes. I do think Hayden fucked with Doomguy's armor after retrieving them both from the Kadinger Sanctum to allow the future installation of the Dimenstional Tether though, hence the UAC branding and the armor already being unsealed when Doomguy is released. The armor is dismantled in Doomguy's room in the Fortress now, because not only did he want to get Hayden's additions out of there, he wanted to revert it to his original Night Sentinel armor. The Intern is likely just a fanboy like the rest of us, and my guess is he was able to hack into ARC data he didn't have permission to view just because he wanted to know EVERYTHING about his hero, and suddenly with all his bosses having fled in fear of the Dark Lord's life sphere he could finally just speak freely about everything he knew. ... I just wrote a paragraph theorizing about the plot of a Doom game. Didn't see THAT coming in '93 let me tell ya.
I think the Wretch and the Betrayer are different people. When hearing tha Testaments, the Dark Lord talks about the Wretch with disdain and hatred, which is weird as Betrayer is the reason they got rid of the main obstacle against the demons. I had a theory that the Wretch was one of the Arch demons from Hell, as there are 7 princes of hell in IRL demonology but only 6 in Doom Eternal, and one of these demons is a inventor that turned humans lazy with his machines
Serafim was mentioned in doom 2016 and it kinda made hayden look suspicious about his knowledge of hell and doom slayer . It was kinda clear that hayden was not just human and the codex entrys supported this . Then with doom eternal I was just sure about it
Dean takahashi cannot even beat the tutorial of cuphead and says doom eternal is to hard because he cannot get past where he is up to, I am pretty sure any FPS shooter or any game is to hard for dean takahashi
I just love this game. First run was on HMP, then UV and NM. Started with NM with TAG1. Holy crap is it fast and intense. Tyrants, barons, archies, its all great.
38:17 believe it or not, those eyeballs pop like a balloon using the microwave beam. It also auto aims, meaning that the beam can never miss, and it only does like ten bullets.
Dang bro. Watching your gameplay, you are good at this game. I don’t have the time nor patience to excel at this game the way you have. I’m thankful you took us for the ride tho! Thumbs up and sub!!👍🏼
Slight correction on the OST, the opening cutscene music is actually done by Levy, not Hulshult, I was actually able to get a reply from Levy on a youtube comment confirming this. And in case anyone was unaware, according to Levy, Hulshult also did the music for the Holt and the final boss!
36:35 i CAN NOT thank you enough for that tip with the pinkies. that one single sentence helped me out SO MUCH on the icon of sin fight, mainly because of the copious amounts of pinkies the icon spawns.
I’m very happy we get to go to the blood swamps. The first time I heard Hayden mention it I wanted to go to it immediately. It’s a super badass level and looks like a ghost album cover. Who would’ve thought a simple passing line would lead to my favorite doom track and level ever.
Here is one thing I've always wondered, based off the codex, one version of Hell and one version of Earth exist in the modern games. Then how did the classic Doom games take place? How was Earth oblivious to demons before DooM 2016's events, yet in the classic games Earth was nearly destroyed by demons? I personally think that not even the Father knows where Doomguy came from, he appeared from some parallel universe in a random chance event, either that or classic Doom's hell/heaven was all "hey can we get rid of this guy? Just send him to some other universe so we don't have to deal with him." I like the idea of this, because parallel universes could allow for more games after the Dark Lord is defeated
I'm a bit late here but oh my God UAC Atlantica is one of the single best tracks I've ever heard in DOOM and not having it brought up while talking about Levy's work was painful... Still a damn good review, and I agree with everything
Personally I think one of the reasons hulshult didn't go all out is because he may have heard about what happened with Mick, so he may have wanted to get one in on Bethesda, which Is understandable cause Bethesda normally has it coming
"Doom Eternal Ancient Gods Part 1 isn't just hard, it's brutal" That aged like milk, thanks for the nerfs id. Nah I'm just cracking jokes at this point. They already said they're going to put most of it back to the way it originally was, so I'm not mad.
wait, PERFECT IDEA for a phase of the Dark Lord fight: he mirrors all your movements on a mirrored map and attacks you when you attack with your attacks, and the only way you can kill him/go to the next phase is by healing with asymmetrical health and armor packs, and using asymmetrical power ups, while also making sure he doesnt touch them as well
I really tried to not complain about the Marauder, but when you got to the buffed Marauder and complained about his AI being broken, that's when I noticed that his behaviour is basically consistent with what he does normally on my playthroughs, it's not that I can't deal with him eventually, it's just that he behaves inconsistently if I don't cheese through with the ballista-ssg combo and stun lock him, and that inconsistency is exactly the problem, if it weren't for that, I'd have no complaints
25:38 In the weekly livestream where Hugo Martin played Doom Eternal (and recently started playing TAG 1 and is scheduled to also play TAG 2), he mentioned that the Marauder had some randomization put in his AI. This can occasionally be seen if you get into an extended fight with him, where he'll act like the buffed Marauder in the sense that he'll run toward you but won't always do his major attack and just stare at you like the buffed Marauder does. So, I think the buff totem sort of cranks that randomization in his AI and cranks it up a notch. If anyone wants to get through this part on UN or is having trouble with this part in general, what I like to do is shoot charged arbalest shots or sticky bombs at his feet.
Is it just me but when he burped in the vid i was not expecting it and laughed my ass off only followed to to fall from my chair when he just goes "oh fuck"
Yes, I'm reviewing Part 2, just be Patient. This video came out ~2 months after its Release - It'll take time, but I'd rather be a bit late with my Review than rush it. Also I've already been it on Ultra Nightmare. Sentinel Hammer is a little busted.

I personally think that not even the Father knows where Doomguy came from, he appeared from some parallel universe in a random chance event, either that or classic Doom's hell/heaven was all "hey can we get rid of this guy? Just send him to some other universe so we don't have to deal with him." I like the idea of this, because parallel universes could allow for more games after the Dark Lord is defeated
That moment when like 9 minutes in when he burps while saying something is why I am subbed, cause that stuff is hilarious
I'm a bit late here but oh my God UAC Atlantica is one of the single best tracks I've ever heard in DOOM and not having it brought up while talking about Levy's work was painful...
Still a damn good review, and I agree with everything
man i just discovered this channel, you are very underrated man, i would love hearing your opinions on the Wolfenstein saga
Holy crap what a great video. INSTANT sub from that theory at the end
Personally I think one of the reasons hulshult didn't go all out is because he may have heard about what happened with Mick, so he may have wanted to get one in on Bethesda, which Is understandable cause Bethesda normally has it coming
0:05 insults someone for basically giving him a compliment lol, I really like your review video and enjoy watching your content
"No John. You ARE the demons."
31:57 this is the best editing in the entire vid
After bingeing your whole doom series here I've probably found some of my favorite content on youtube. Love this shit dude
Great video as usual. I love your content man, you're super underrated.
I love that the slayer's punches ring out like a gunshot in the fight against hayden
This review is just Trav flexing.
I mean can you blame him?
"This was all so easy" then later he tells us how he died many times in UN....at least there is some balance in the world haha
can i just say how awesome it is to watch this man slay demons in doom eternal, it is really cool and inspires me to try and do the same
28:15 that hell knight just yeeter
28:12 that GameCube intro parody was funny. 😛
Wake up Trav Guy we got a second DLC
"Doom Eternal Ancient Gods Part 1 isn't just hard, it's brutal"
That aged like milk, thanks for the nerfs id.
Nah I'm just cracking jokes at this point. They already said they're going to put most of it back to the way it originally was, so I'm not mad.
I'm so happy you appreciate the power of the destroyer blade mod. The dopamine rush I get when slicing enemies in HALF says it all.
wait, PERFECT IDEA for a phase of the Dark Lord fight: he mirrors all your movements on a mirrored map and attacks you when you attack with your attacks, and the only way you can kill him/go to the next phase is by healing with asymmetrical health and armor packs, and using asymmetrical power ups, while also making sure he doesnt touch them as well
This video was awesome, as usual. Thanks for doing what you do on here.
34:15 that was a pretty good joke.
As someone who hates heavy metal, all they fear is you is the only heavy metal song I enjoy
Doomguy is like Superman, except he actually fixes some of the damage he does
People: Doom eternal is easy
Hugo Martin: You dare challenge me, mortal!? **Releases Ancient gods part 1**
It would be hilarious if in the fight against the dark lord had him side strafing all around the arena with a shotgun
Imagine if we just saw him SSG Ballista us 💀
Also I kinda wish he was using the skullface skin for some reason, his own preator suit
After just discovering this channel, you definitely have some of the best doom reviews on the site, can't wait to see more 👍
I really tried to not complain about the Marauder, but when you got to the buffed Marauder and complained about his AI being broken, that's when I noticed that his behaviour is basically consistent with what he does normally on my playthroughs, it's not that I can't deal with him eventually, it's just that he behaves inconsistently if I don't cheese through with the ballista-ssg combo and stun lock him, and that inconsistency is exactly the problem, if it weren't for that, I'd have no complaints
this
Man your channel is so underrated you deserve more subs
They done turned that DooM into John Milton.
25:38 In the weekly livestream where Hugo Martin played Doom Eternal (and recently started playing TAG 1 and is scheduled to also play TAG 2), he mentioned that the Marauder had some randomization put in his AI. This can occasionally be seen if you get into an extended fight with him, where he'll act like the buffed Marauder in the sense that he'll run toward you but won't always do his major attack and just stare at you like the buffed Marauder does. So, I think the buff totem sort of cranks that randomization in his AI and cranks it up a notch.
If anyone wants to get through this part on UN or is having trouble with this part in general, what I like to do is shoot charged arbalest shots or sticky bombs at his feet.
Is it just me but when he burped in the vid i was not expecting it and laughed my ass off only followed to to fall from my chair when he just goes "oh fuck"
I have watched this video 2 times in its entirety and watching it again now, trav please make more doom content
I’m sad to say that they decided to just end the marauders to the point to where they are just fodder demons .
I was initially worried about the music.
*I am no longer worried about the music.*
12:00 hey I know that guy.
Oh hey
8:23 slick moves trav man
