So about Arachnotrons...

[WeegeeLord9]

I'm aware that story and lore aren't a huge priority for DOOM, but I just noticed that it lacks a journal entry in the bestiary.
It's doubly odd considering if this is a prequel, then how do these exist, knowing that in DOOM Eternal, the Arachnotrons only exist in that game after the defeat of the Spider Mastermind from DOOM 2016 as remnants of her were used to make them.

Little lore inconsistency I noticed, but ay things happen

You forget, they existed aeons before during the events of Doom 2 & 64.

Hmmm true still irks me that there's a the lack of a journal entry I'd love a lore explanation to explain these specific Arachnotrons

Yea, that seems like an oversight TBH. They should def have one.

Thats really my only gripe with TDA is that the manuscripts and codex entries were not handled very well. Someone new to Doom (Crazy to think about I know) would have no idea what is going on or how any of the manuscripts are relevant at all
