I was thinking about this, about how not even Gamerz(tm) like Gamerz(tm). I'm pretty sure female game heroines are more common than a game hero who in any way resembles the kind of guys who've been in my mentions all dayhttps://twitter.com/BootlegGirl/status/1293923265715548160 …

You look at (non character creator) games with dude protagonists, and to a one, they're fit paragons of masculinity Doomguy? Definitely doesn't waste his time on Souls games, he's at the gym Master Chief? Doesn't need to go to the gym bc genetic engineering, but also not a nerd

Like before they really got into the worldbuilding it really was about how silly an FPS with a nerd self insert would be In the earliest builds the alien invasion happens while he's at his desk in his office and his initial melee weapon is a coffee cup

Anyway it should be noted that the Doom Eternal version of Doomguy 1) does not need to go to the gym anymore because of genetic engineering 2) has the original Doom and Doom II installed on his PC
