Doom Eternal: Sequel or Prequel?

[cuni]

Pretty simple: In the gameplay reveal, you see the same blade that Samual Hayden acquired at the end of Doom (2016), so either this is before that or after, where he somehow got the sword back. What's your guys thoughts?

It's a sequel.

DOOM is first Doom remastered, DOOM Eternal is Doom 2 Hell on Earth remastered. Id is pretty much simply reproducing the original game titles by keeping the original fast paced gameplay it has with the next generation quality in graphics. The narrative and story won't be any different than Doom 3.
It will have the same script the original Doom titles were.

Reimagined? Yeah. Remastered? Umm, no. Remastering means you take the original games and polish them up. This is nothing like the original games. For one, you can actually look up and down.

Well now from the ancient gods part 2, Slayer repeats the cycle in the beginning of Doom 2016, it say's eternal (Maybe saying eternal fighting).

Just to answer your question Doom 2016 AND Doom Eternal while both serving as both a remaster and a remake of the originals they also follow the storyline of the originals as its revealed in Doom Eternal does confirm that the Doom Slayer IS the same Doomguy you play as in the original Doom 1 and Doom 2 of course it at the time of Doom 2016 it was more or less just a theory.

Yeah I know it now, I posted this like 2 or 3 years ago

Doom eternal has nothing to do with doom II. Doom 2 is on mars in doom eternal with the dumb dlcs you fly dragons and have combos like darks souls 2. pathetic game.

I can't tell if this is a troll post or an actual comment. Dark souls and Doom eternal are completely different games in the terms of POV and Combat.

Dark souls is a third-person RPG hack and slash. Doom eternal is a Fast paced Action First person shooter. When did you ever fly dragons in Eternal, It was one cut scene. never in Eternal are you taken away from what makes Doom guy the Slayer, yes he uses guns but its always by his hand not a vehicle or any mounts.

Also Classic Doom 2 is Hell on earth, not mars. Classic Doom 1 is on mars's moons. Also Doom 2016 and Eternal are sequels for the Classic Doom games. Many times in the cut scenes in Eternal prove this that it is indeed Doomguy Even the Subtitles and the Intern guy confirm it. Rant over.
