Very minor DOOM change

[Shmooply]

This should be Dead Simple. Doomslayer should have type 1 self-sustenance moved to his Doomguy key, because in the map Dead Zone, he casually runs around in an open field that leads to outer space.

COUNTER ARGUMENTS

"It has glasses 'n' stuff!!"
No, it doesn't. The ship he is on is from Hell, and the only things living there are demons who don't need oxygen in the first place.

"The Next Technology isn't canon!!"
Yea... no.
Id Software set ground rules for a title. First, and most obvious, the game had to have "Doom" in the title. That was their brand. Second, "Doom 3" was off the table. Although id had moved on to Quake, the co-founders had agreed to keep "Doom 3" in their back pocket in the event they returned to the franchise. (Final Doom, a 64-level follow-up to Doom 2 released in 1996, was neither "final," nor did id consider it a proper numbered sequel, though the game does fit into Doom canon.)

I'd suggest getting @KieranH10

 

[DarkDragonMedeus]

I think this sounds fine; I'm kinda surprised he doesn't have it already iirc.

 

[Gewsbumpz_dude]

Yeah. That's pretty blatant Type 1 Self-Sustenance. I agree.

 

[Axxtentacle]

Hard agree on this one, boys.

 

[Gewsbumpz_dude]

Sort of relevant to this CRT. But the demons should also have Self-Sustenance, specifically type 1 and 3, not sure about type 2. Given that they can survive in space as presented in the scans of the OP (and in DOOM Eternal, a canonical sequel to the original games) and that they are straight up said to be tireless beings. Plus they're all undead, and undead beings typically don't require sustenance.

This can wait for another CRT, I don't want to drag out this CRT longer then necessary.

 

[Shmooply]

i mean, they have type 7 immortality anyways
Since this is a ridiculously minor change, and since DDM and some people knowledgable on the verse are fine with it, I'll apply it to his profile now.

Good ******* lord I'm a dumbass and forgot that his profile's locked.

Aren't they referenced as eating Pinkies?
I definitely agree with this tho

Yes, Pinkies are said to be a delicacy in Hell. There are also multiple statements and whatnot on them "Devouring" souls and human flesh. Which is why I'm not so certain on giving the demons type 2. Albeit simply showing the capability of eating doesn't really mean that you actually need it, as various characters in fiction with Self-Sustenance still eat, drink, or sleep for other reasons separate from it being a necessity (for example; SCP-049).

Yes, Pinkies are considered livestock in Hell's hierarchy. Hell (pun not intended), even imps hunt them.

Ah so they probably wouldn't get Type 2

That's actually really damn good scaling

 

[Shmooply]

Yea, and it rustles my jimmies that pinkies are for whatever reason listed as stronger than imps on their profile.

 

[Gewsbumpz_dude]

Imps are pack hunters (or pack hunter-like) iirc, so that's likely why.

 

[KieranH10]

Looks Bueno.
Can agree.

 

[Shmooply]

now we just need someone to
yknow
unlock the profile

 

[KieranH10]

I Don't have that power mi amigo...

@DarkDragonMedeus could you help with this please.

 

[DarkDragonMedeus]

I changed protection so someone can make the proposed changes.

 

[Shmooply]

Applied the change, profile can be locked now.

 

[DarkDragonMedeus]

I have done so.
