ID software collab, when?

PC General Discussion
1

Not having a collaboration with id Software/Bethesda during the Doom: Dark Ages release feels like a missed opportunity.
Not saying Berserk isn’t cool and all – but come on, both universes stand at the gates of hell and are brutal in their own right.

I’ll be honest – I just wanna dress my barb like a Slayer knockoff!

  • Shield for Necro
  • Mace and 2-hander for Barb
  • Green and/or “god” armor all around
  • That flying rideable thing could use the skeleton/rig from the “tiger” mount
  • Wings from that same flying dragon thing

Revenant – Necro
Mancubus – Druid
Whiplash – Spiritborn
Arch-vile – Sorc
Stone Imp – Rogue
Slayer – Barb

And let’s be honest — it’s not like this collab would’ve been hard to pull off.
Bethesda/id and Blizzard are both under Microsoft now.
Battle.net has hosted Bethesda games before.
Doom: Dark Ages reveal and D4 season drop? Same window.
Both franchises scream hell, brutality, and metal.
Feels like all the stars were aligned… someone just forgot to push the button.

As much I as enjoyed DOOM and finished it with almost all achievements in past 3 days…gave it 9/10.
Am I the only one who thinks this kinda things belongs to Heroes of the Storm ?

Maybe am too conservative, but for me since i read all R.A.Knaak books and always loved and lived with it the lore… are all these WOW and Berserk skins just wierd …ruining RP in the RPG game for me.
But well not sure if I can call D3.5 still an RPG.

I totally get where you’re coming from and I too get the desire for thematic consistency. But let’s be real, D3.5 already made its bed with mount armor made of demon skulls and flying horses made of obsidian. The Slayer wouldn’t be out of place - if anything, it would feel right at home. Especially in a game that’s leaning hard into “ARPG sandbox with cosmetics” territory. At this point, RP is what you make of it, and for some of us, that RP includes ripping and tearing across Sanctuary :smiling_imp: :skull: :star_struck:

This is what D4 expectations are: sub-NetEase.

Real hard men need some fluffy cute stuff too.

Ohh i know something serious too. How about a “Ninja Scroll” collab? :ninja: :scroll:
That would be awesome.

So Cow level resurfaces in a new form.

Diablo Immortal is that way ===================>

In a collaboration, both parties must agree. If Blizzard wants it, but Doom doesn’t, then there’s no collab.

And I doubt that Doom Guy will agree to collaborate with Diablo.

How about fixing the game instead of making silly useless “collabs”?

one does not exclude the other :slight_smile:

Berserk is literally Diablo in manga, I mean it’s about a buff dude killing demons with a giant sword. It’s the perfect collab, but Blizzard didn’t do anything huge with it. The cosmetics are nice though.
