Hugo Martin Previews Doom Eternal | Joe Rogan

First of all, the game looks fucking... Tell everybody who you are and what you do. My name is Hugo Martin and I'm the game director on Doom Eternal. Oh no! The Dragon is back yet? Let me tell you something folks. Hugo just played some of Doom Eternal. He showed us the game and ran through some of the first level. Holy fuck. God damn, it's so next level. It's so next level. Graphics. It's so next. Everything about it. The demons, the way you kill them. It's the most violent thing I've ever seen in my life. It's awesome. It's so ridiculous. But it seems like it's okay because it's violence against demons. Yeah, totally. And we work hard on that. There's no cursing. I have three kids. There's no cursing. There's no sex. I do want it to be something that my nine year old could play. Don't you think? It's kind of crazy that you could rip people's heads off, you could shove their arm down their throat, you could cut them in half. That's fine. Don't use any of those naughty words, kids. Yes, because I was joking with someone the other day. It's like when I'm with my kids, he's not going to go to somebody and glory kill them. But when someone says- Explain what a glory kill is because it sounds too much like glory hole and people are going to get really confused. So in the game when you damage a demon enough, they will glow with a shader on them. And that means you can go in to do a melee finisher basically, which is like a melee attack and you'll get health from it. And there are these really, really cool animations. The melee we should explain is like with your own hands. You could rip them apart or cut them in half with a sword or a chainsaw. It's so crazy. When my kids see that, they're not going to do that. But when they hear someone use the F word, they're like, oh, I could use that in everyday life and that sucks. It's a very interesting rationalization. I'm not buying it. But the game is awesome. It would be cool if you had an R rated mode that you had to enter in your security number, social security number or something. It will unlock it. It shows you're over 21. That would be funny. That would be awesome. Over 18. I feel like over 18. Yeah. And then you just hire your brother. Dude, get in here. I'll give you five bucks. I'll mark this pitch. That would be awesome. It's cartoonish violence, though. You could see it. It's very much like a cartoon. Yeah. And again, you're killing monsters. It's like walking dead when they spike them in the head. You can't do that to a person on TV, but you could do it to a zombie. And they're demons from hell. You're doing God's work. You have to. Yes, that's right. Something you have to. And we should explain that Doom was one of the very first 3D games. It was Castle Wolfenstein. Right. That was like the first one with id Software. We've had Carmack in before. He's no longer with software. But who is is will it still there? No, he's not there anymore. Damn it. What about Hollingshead? No. What the fuck, bro? How's it in software? Marty Stratton. Change the name. You got a bunch of new people running. Listen, whoever's running it, they're doing an amazing job because that game looks sick. And I'm scared. I'm scared. I'm going to get sucked into it. It's awesome. First of all, the gameplay and then just the beginning sequence, the in-game like whole sequence looks like a CGI movie. It doesn't look like gameplay. Like, remember when we used to play games and he used to have that opening scene and there was like a video and then it would go to the game and the game was crude. This game is exactly like the opening scene, which is so crazy. No pre-rendered that everything. Those are the in-game assets. That's how good they are. The game is insane. The guys are true artists, craftsmen. They just go crazy on the details. When you zoom in with the camera for the cinematics, they completely hold up the rigging. It's like a feature film. It's nuts. Are you guys there? There it is right now. Let's play the old trailer. This is the old trailer? Yeah, this trailer is good. Just play it for people. This is humanity's chance to repent. And if you're just listening, you gotta see this on YouTube. And if you're like, I'm a grown up, but I don't have time for this shit. I have an IRA and a 401K and I have kids. Me too, bitch. Me too. I'm not a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. I'm a grown up. Hey you little fucks! Now if you're just listening this is just annoying music and noise but if you're watching it looks fucking sick. Watch this. Oh. And it goes BAM right in the head. to stop angels there's angels too oh Jesus oh shit so he's like the boss demon yeah god damn this looks good doom eternal it looks like I anticipate a massive waste of time for people 320 so that's when it comes out so yeah it was a nine days for now yes that guy if you're Bruce Lee that is your Chuck Norris yeah and you guys are gonna and the whole scene actually when you meet him which is a little clip from that it's really inspired by that scene is it enter the dragon or return of the dragon when he fights Chuck Norris I think it's entered a dragon yes and think you know like when they square off in the Coliseum like you know he comes out and he says some badass shit you like look at him yeah yeah that's a fucking great scene that is a great way of the dragon is it really of the dragon oh wow way of the dragon or for the Star Wars fans we say like it's like your Obi-Wan and that's your Darth Maul okay I like the first I don't know Star Wars has become too Disney fun it doesn't really sync up with that that fight is badass though between Obi-Wan and Darth Maul yes oh man it's awesome yeah it's pretty bad yeah that's before I went to shit yeah the fights in the prequels were amazing yeah they were really good yes I've watched the one against Obi-Wan and and Anakin like a million times like I love that one it's so good like when they and the lava and shit and they just go off on each other and like it's a mate George described it in an interview that it would be like you would be seeing Jedi at their peak that that really in the first three Star Wars films they were not at their peak and then in the prequels you would see them in their prime you know like like Hickson in his prime so like it that's what's so cool about that fight they're just going off on each other it's amazing yeah well what you guys have done is create something that's gonna ruin people's lives I hope you're really excited about massive waste of time I mean we're talking before the show about video games and the addictive quality of video games I have a real problem I just can't play them that much yes I can dip my toe in every now and then and then I shake my head and I gotta go running or something because otherwise it'll get the grip on me yes they're too fun like there's no movie that you're gonna watch it gives you the kind of engagement that because you're like in the movie yes and it looks like a fucking movie now and you see with the glory kills like you are your own fight choreographer if you're sick of breaking the arm and shoving it in his head then swing around from behind and cut him in half you know like do anything you want it's awesome now as far as multiplayer because I'm not really into playing games the game game I'm into multiplayer so you I promise if you play the single player what is unique about our single player is that it will give you the same buzz that a multiplayer will give you because your opponents this time are the AI and that opening level that's white belts you're messing with like easy dudes the later on it will continue to level up and as you saw like that guy that comes out with the axe like again he is he is as tough as you are so you will get the same feeling from the single player that you do from a multiplayer that's not really possible because what I like is duels I like like like in Quake Champions I like playing duels you know that's what's fun for me like one-on-one like me and Jamie would get barbecued and we'd come here and we play for hours just one-on-one you run around the map and collect your rocket launchers and your ammo and armor and shit and just fuck each other up we have a multiplayer called battle mode that is fucking awesome like it's really really good and then is it like quake multiplayer like no no it's it's different it's very unique the last multiplayer we made was not super well received it was a really competent good multiplayer but it was that I was just doomed 2016 multiplayer experience but it really wasn't innovative enough like fans wanted to see us like do something new so we basically took the single player experience that combat loop that you'll master and then we we give you a way to do it with your friends it's a 2v1 so it'd be you know two of you guys versus one guy gets to be the Slayer with all the guns and it's really really cool and then there's invasion so like you'll play the single player campaign and then someone can become a demon like Jamie could become a demon and then invade you while you're playing you won't know where he is and it'll just come out and try to fuck with you like it's really cool but is there any one-on-one multiplayer invasion is kind of one-on-one but battle mode the closest we come to the one-on-one is 2v1 oh okay that's weird why'd you side two versus one instead of one versus one it's just unique you know it's it's the balance there no one demon can stand against the Slayer you know the dune guy is all powerful he's got all these you know he's right here he's got all the guns and the mods and he's got eight cars bicep exposed it seems like a vulnerability it's like a kind of pretty much it seems like that's a good spot to hit his arms are like trees so like they're made of jelly donuts they're very large that shit they are so big that in one scene he raises like a sword and the bicep just like is it's absurdly huge but but yeah cute but it's still made out of meat that's true that's true the the I forgot what I was saying but yes you can compete battle mode is really good you really like it yeah but why don't you have a one-on-one because we just it didn't it just didn't work out that way do you think you anticipate anything like that in the future like an honor you never know like certainly we'll see but but we're really really proud of this like I think what you want to do is you got to innovate if you want to make something that's really going to engage people like that like the whole point is to like give them something to master that they've never seen before because if you're just asking me to master a new version of a thing that I already mastered sure a lot of people would appreciate that but you're not really gonna capture like a large audience so we really created something that was completely unique and so we're excited that now is there gonna be a deathmatch mode we're like all of us can get in a room and fuck each other up I know that's what we have quick champions for that I know but we already played quick champions I want to play that I'm gonna use those weapons well with that guy like this is this the multiplayer this this is the multiplayer Jesus Christ looks crazy it is nuts that dude you it's it's kind of based based on a couple of core pillars of like we needed something that had a lot of drama we wanted something that I had a lot of pacing like the variations and pacing in the match and something with deep strategy so and and was primarily innovative like unlike anything any anything anybody had played before and was from like it's a multiplayer for people who love Doom Eternal so we play the Doom Eternal single-player you'll you'll like this right it looks so incredible man it's fucking awesome the graphics are so off the charts I just want to play this right now I know I'm looking at this video Jamie's playing showing the video of this guy playing and it's just yeah it's incredible so he's he's the Slayer you're seeing through the Slayer right now in those two demons that he's shooting with the numbers coming out of them those are the other guys
