Doom Eternal is barely a month old and speedrunners have already figured out how to finish the game in under a half hour. So ride along with Marty Stratton (Executive Producer), Hugo Martin (Game Director), Jerry Keehan (Level Design Director) and Evan Eubanks (Lead Game Programmer) as they watch their latest game get absolutely destroyed by world record speedunner: Xamide.

    "This isn't level design's fault. You didn't tell us NOT to do this Jerry"😂😂😂
  • @douchefuck
    "We should put an unskippable cut scene in the sky" loool
  • @redguy7718
    "Do they want us to fix it" That's perfect mentality
  • This by far the best devs react video I've seen. Kudos to them for not taking it too seriously. 19:50 is as much fun as I've ever heard the devs have in any of these.
  • Patch notes: • purple sludge in the sky • slow the elevators • put funny notes for the speed runners to see • sky cutscenes

    Other devs: "Omg the exploits" Hugo: "TONY THE CRUCIBLE IS TOO BRIGHT"
  • @calebhicks5451
    "He spends more time at this button than anything, we should have spent more time modeling it" Lets make the parts speedruners have to look at better looking, great devs

    30:14 "It's almost like a community project and they use it to make their own world records." Well said

    Dev: That's a creative director problem, he didn't tell us NOT to do this. LMAO

    Speedrunner: breaks the game Everyone: WOW Developer: "It's a war.."
  • @dreck24
    Love how they actually care about our thoughts even such insignificant as do we like it when the cheeses get fixed. Maaaaaad respect for the dev and for the most polished fps shooter ive ever touched <3
  • @CamJam312
    Fun Fact: Xamide did another any% speedrun shaving nearly 10 minutes off his record, currently 18m 58s 740ms
  • @josephvinik2476
    I love that the doom devs would rather just troll the speedrunners than actually make it hard for them to speedrun.

    “You do have to hand it to the people who do this. The amount of time they spend in the game to figure this stuff out is — what the HELL just HAPPENED”

    23:25 the apple notification sound timed perfectly to the speedrunner shooting the ballista
