The Ultimate DOOM Plot Twist
Imagine explaining DOOM to someone who has never played it.
"You're a space marine."
"Cool."
"You fight demons from Hell."
"Awesome."
"You have a shotgun."
"Obviously."
"There's a massive arsenal of weapons."
"Naturally."
"And your pet rabbit gets killed."
"Wait... what?"
"And that's part of the reason you're extremely angry."
"...Okay, that's actually pretty metal."
