How I see the Rebel Baron and Doomguy meeting. I can see it now, Doomguy getting surrounded by a massive horde of demons wondering how he's going to kill all the demons around him so that he can continue to kill more. Then all of a sudden, the rebel Baron comes charging in and then proceeds to start killing all the demons. Doomguy uses this moment of confusion to start gaining ground and kill the surrounding demons. After enough of the demons are killed, doomguy is about to kill the Rebel Baron when he notices that the Baron is using huge guns and wearing makeshift armor, which really confuses Doomguy, which prompts him to wait for the baron out of interest and confusion. Once the Baron finishes killing all the demons, he and Doomguy lock eyes. There he was, the legendary Doomguy. The Baron had heard of all the things about him and was honestly nervous about him, even scared of him. Finally after a few moments of silence and staring at each other from a distance the Baron gives a gesture to Doomguy saying, "Come on, let's keep moving." Doomguy's confusion now at an all-time high just gives up and says to himself, "Fuck it, I'll go along with it." And the two eventually became best demon killing buddies.
@@SandorBundaMusic He might make an exception. The baron does see that there is another option than to continue to punish and terrorize humans. He wants change. He may even want to SAVE the humans. As the name suggests, he does have a heart. He uses his nature to his advantage, and may save through fighting when the time comes. I would love a reference to this in the new doom.
"human medical technology has little effect on your demonic body..../ but its better than nothing." I love the flavour text of things from the barrons perceptive. He's like ah yes the super charge, filled to the brim with the souls of damned sinners. quite a find acutally. Doom guy: *inhale* SSSSUUPPERRR CHHHARRRGEEEE
I feel as though that Doomguy and the Baron would be more along the lines of partners that hate one another's guts but have no choice but to work together if they want to destroy Hell.
It's pretty much tells the tale of a really powerful (but nameless, probably the mod author's decision for a bit more immersion for the player) Baron of Hell who was sealed away by the current masters of Hell (the Spider Masterminds), who are also responsible for weakening the Icon of Sin (which would explain how a few rockets from Doomguy can kill the damn thing). He breaks out of the seal and fights Hell not for the same reason Doomguy (or other Doom Mod Protagonists) has, but because he feels as though said dimension has gone weak and frail over the millennia. The Baron is essentially that one character that is very stubborn to old traditional ways rather than try out new methods (as the lore states that he is wary, at least, or hostile, at most, towards cybernetics such as the rocket launcher in this mod or to the Arachnotrons and Spider Masterminds of vanilla Doom), preferring hellish magic for his main methods of ranged attacks.
Damn, Guncaster...that's a good mod right there. I've always insisted that Guncaster is practically a full-size retail-price-worthy game. So many bells, whistles, and such a fun, enjoyable experience with plenty of gameplay and variety. A bit on the OP side, but nothing some monster randomizers couldn't fix.
@@infinitypilot Still broken though. With the recent updates, it's just basically became a "Clean" and non-shitpost version of Russian Overkill. (I know same author) With the inclusion of the Power Armor you might as well be using the IDDQD cheat. It's good fun, but you'd be bored with it. Just good for short bursts of playing, I don't see myself playing it for one wad worth of stages. I prefer Trailblazer, (also by the same author) for longplays.
I've just downloaded this, and it's so crazy, I love it. I don't know what made the author think to themselves, "well, the Baron of Hell is alright, but what would really improve him would be guns. Big, powerful guns", but its a stroke of genius
Woo! You finally got around to this mod. It's definitely been my favorite mod to play lately. Especially when I combine it with the Wolfenstien Enemy pack for some Demons VS Nazis. Plus on Slaughtermaps it tends to be actually fairly challenging.
For those of you looking for a cool little experience. Use th doom incarnate mod with the kriegsland enemies pack on the sunder map set. Trust me, its awesome.
Yohoho, Doom Incarnate + Kriegsland was great! The mapset I played it on was Hellbound, which were these urban/techbase maps that occasionally contained arcane hellish imagery. Combined that with the enigmatic demon corpses that you'd sometime find, and it actually felt like I was going into places I wasn't supposed to. Like I was unveiling this dark sinister conspiracy the Nazis had to open the gates to some evil netherworld.
I'm astounded how much creativity going into this mod. I love seeing these mods you post, I've been a doom player since it released. It's quite amazing seeing how a game has lived on as long as Doom and still new content is being made by fans all around.
icarus: the feel of the weapons themselves, gives the impression that if anything else other than the baron was wielding it, it would probably rip their arm off if they trie to fire it doomguy: *Holds a "Big Fucking Gun" bigger than his chest and shoot it like a pistol without any recoil* i think he can use them after russian overkill too
I wonder if this mod's creator has future plans for implementing gameplays of different demons like archvile, mancubus, revenant, and heck; why not cyberdemon itself?! It would be damn awesome!
Brohnesorge I do wish the best on your later mods! Seriously, you did spent some quality time on programming those magical/awesome demon powers for ripping and tearing. 👍😀
Brohnesorge: Any thoughts on Complex/LCA compatibility? For instance, playing as a legendary variant? If you don't know what I'm talking about, check out UltraViolence's channel ua-cam.com/channels/2njm8CxSR_UtdIonfr1ODw.html
Love this mod, especially when you max out your magic, summon two Baron clones and watch everything explode. Including yourself if you are also in the thick of it and they start raining down hell while you yourself are dping the same, but with an upgraded version.
Reminds me of a snap-map i made in Doom 2016 that revolved around becoming a baron of hell, you had a fellow baron follow you around and help take out the enemies This mod feels like an evolution of that idea
Mr_Beezlebub , last Doom has such feature in multiрlayer game, but as far as I remember its all about team hunting the рlayer who sрawns as a demon with unhuman рower and turning in the demon by itself after fragging him. However, there are no magic sрells and stuff kinda this wad.
Another thing I would add, is that this is one of those mods that needs a mapset made specifically for it. Vanilla Doom 1 and 2, and most other mapsets seem to be too enclosed to allow you to use the Barons abilities to their full extent. It's still huge fun though
Fyi, you can just run through the zombies and imps ... they'll splat everywhere. Works on : DOOM DOOM 2 Final DOOM Plutonia Experiment DOOM - TNT - Evilution Heretic & Serpent Riders Hexen ( if you don't mind using only your claws, ground slam, boulder toss, and hero class weapons that sometimes work ).
How do you go about displaying the status bar? When I tried the mod, I couldn't get the status bar to show. Edit: I realized that you had to use the plus and minus keys.
I can imagine the sequels to this one: Hearts of Demons 2: Cacodemon, Hearts of Demons 3: Archvile, Hearts of Demons 4: Spider Mastermind, and last, but certainly not least, Hearts of Demons 5: Cyberdemon.
It would be actually a nice twist in one of these mods that you gain powers, or overpowers and in the end you have to play as a doom space marine against your own achievement boosted baron :D
Playing the mod? Make sure to bind the Reload and Zoom keys. They, in combo with primary and secondary fire, allow to select spells. Also bind the baron vision key which rocks. Pays to click and read the Weapons Spoiler block on the mod's download page. Really like this one as it is cool and also requires some learning to play properly. As usual thx to Icarus for testing out all these mods for us sinners! P.S.: Don't get daunted by the download being a .zip. Do not unpack it. Just plug it into your gzdoom as you would any other old .wad or .pk3. The program can handle it.
"This is the Azazel magic autocannon" I must be watching too much Forgotten Weapons and C&Rsenal as I can only picture the entire machining and R&D process of how a gun is made going on in hell. XD Do they respect patents in hell?
"Lets give the Baron a gun."
I want to meet whoever thought of that, and shake his hand.
You're below him on the comment's section right now
Mod author here, holy shit does this make me one of the cool kids now?
Brohnesorge Yes
The diablo HP/Mana orbs are a nice touch.
The coolness was inside you all along
Hell yeah it does. This is just a great idea to begin with. I would totally pay at least $40 to play as a big demon in a full game.
First time I've seen this mod and it looks pretty cool.
When infighting goes too far
legendary comment
That's when you know shit got real.

That is some seriously good fan fiction there :O
You do that, and as soon as you do I want to read it :3
Dude, the Doomguy is a demon racist, he kills all demons, no exceptions.
@@SandorBundaMusic He might make an exception. The baron does see that there is another option than to continue to punish and terrorize humans. He wants change. He may even want to SAVE the humans. As the name suggests, he does have a heart. He uses his nature to his advantage, and may save through fighting when the time comes.
I would love a reference to this in the new doom.
@@AnnieC.1993 Ehhh naaah.
"human medical technology has little effect on your demonic body..../ but its better than nothing."
I love the flavour text of things from the barrons perceptive.
He's like ah yes the super charge, filled to the brim with the souls of damned sinners. quite a find acutally.
Doom guy: *inhale* SSSSUUPPERRR CHHHARRRGEEEE
Meanwhile, Call of Duty:
Hey, do you want a larger magazine on your gun or an extra handle?
HEALTH STARTED 1,000
4:40 I like the star crosshair. Thats a nice touch consistant with the theme
Now I want Doomguy to have a Baron sidekick (much like this one) in new Doom games
I feel as though that Doomguy and the Baron would be more along the lines of partners that hate one another's guts but have no choice but to work together if they want to destroy Hell.
So rivals then?
+Danny Boi
Yes, kinda like Thor & Hulk's dynamic in some portrayals in Marvel.
Doomguy would probably kill him anyway
Pinky and cacodemon mounts.
Imagine this Baron teaming up with Doomguy. That'd be metal.
Take notes id software!
*mental
🤘😁
It would be cool if the Wretch was a Baron.
That would be the most awesome thing ever
That baron ain't a mere regular soldier, he's the very elite officer. Glad he's on our side.
he is on doomguys side tho
I read the lore behind this mod and I gotta say it's pretty unique compared to other lores of other Doom mods.
What is it?
It's pretty much tells the tale of a really powerful (but nameless, probably the mod author's decision for a bit more immersion for the player) Baron of Hell who was sealed away by the current masters of Hell (the Spider Masterminds), who are also responsible for weakening the Icon of Sin (which would explain how a few rockets from Doomguy can kill the damn thing).

@@enricopaolocoronado2511 that's really cool
@@enricopaolocoronado2511 also adds the small information that The Barons aren't animalistic like the other demons, but are very intelligent mages
That spell selection seems to be inspired by Diablo II sorceress. Particularly Immolation, Meteor and Hydras.
same with the hud. I've played some of diablo 2, and it does have a very simular hud to h.o.d. baron.
Just imagine a Baron of Hell got recruited into the UAC Security branch...
Then he would get his very own custom UAC armor. Just for him
That would be badass af...
Nguyen Gia Khanh Exactly
The legions of hell might call him a traitor, it’s worth it though...
Nguyen Gia Khanh definitely worth it for the kick ass armor and being spared from Doomguy.
A Baron of Hell rebelling ? Its the HELLBOY! :D
No it horn have to be stumps and it needs a revolver
@@therandomnobody3407 r/woosh
Just Some Guy Who likes gaming gross
imagine doing this on Nuts 1, 2, and 3
Alternative Husk Yeeeeees!!!!!!
imagine doing *enter any mod here* on Nuts.
KingLich Nuts.wad is basically the "but can it run crysis" of doom mods..
@@KingLich451 Honestly, IMHO only Russian Overkill truly qualifies.
Baron is a good Bae.
Captain Jurgh He is husbando material.
Spells is stored in the gun
Is this mod in some weird way a spiritual successor to IMPpatience. I wonder if it works with this mod...
Well IMPatience makes you play as an imp to stop doomguy
This mod simply makes you play as a baron with more weapons and magic
ikagura I wonder if those mods are compatible
how would that work then basil? playing as baron and imp at the same time? I think you can work that out yourself
Hazzmati I was referring to selecting both of them when getting ready to launch gzdoom or zandronum
edit: just as i suspected, it's not compatible
@basil, I say is of hellspawn is an old mod u play as every doom monster
So this is like a Demon version of Guncaster.
Damn, Guncaster...that's a good mod right there.
I've always insisted that Guncaster is practically a full-size retail-price-worthy game. So many bells, whistles, and such a fun, enjoyable experience with plenty of gameplay and variety. A bit on the OP side, but nothing some monster randomizers couldn't fix.

i wish the camera show the baron hell horn like the doom multiplayer versus
Baron with guns really remind me of a few NSFW art pieces by SligarTheTiger.
*S A U C E*
This isnt baron of hell
This is baron of heaven
I've just downloaded this, and it's so crazy, I love it. I don't know what made the author think to themselves, "well, the Baron of Hell is alright, but what would really improve him would be guns. Big, powerful guns", but its a stroke of genius

doomguy: *Holds a "Big Fucking Gun" bigger than his chest and shoot it like a pistol without any recoil*
i think he can use them after russian overkill too
Electricity-based weapons have no recoil.
Now we just have to get a mod where we play as a Cyberdemon.
I wonder if this mod's creator has future plans for implementing gameplays of different demons like archvile, mancubus, revenant, and heck; why not cyberdemon itself?! It would be damn awesome!
MooniMedia12 yes I do, for Archvile, Revenant and Arachnotron
That's amazing. I'd love to see the one for Archie, especially considering the "lore" of this mod talks about Archies being priests.
Brohnesorge I do wish the best on your later mods! Seriously, you did spent some quality time on programming those magical/awesome demon powers for ripping and tearing. 👍😀

So hard mode? I imagine it would be like vanilla except you are more fragile.
@@pvtblu1613and you only have 2 guns
Now I've got this mental image of the baron using Doomguy as a sidearm like the Winter Solider and Rocket Raccoon in Infinity War.
Only half way through the video and this mod is going straight onto the must-play list
"built like a brick shithouse"
one of my favorite sayings of all time
I’ve been playing this mod on slaughterfest 2012 for quite a while and I am just in love with this mod, it’s so satisfying playing this mod.
This makes normal barons look like friggin imps
This is the best Doom wad now, in my opinion. Imagine if there were a demon mode in the next Doom game that was inspired by this mod?
Mr_Beezlebub , last Doom has such feature in multiрlayer game, but as far as I remember its all about team hunting the рlayer who sрawns as a demon with unhuman рower and turning in the demon by itself after fragging him. However, there are no magic sрells and stuff kinda this wad.
Mr_Beezlebub
Using this with Bolgnaise mod
Finally, Painkiller:Overdose is released at last! Awesome video dood. :)
ok, there needs to be a way to tie the doom guy and the rebelling Baron into a story here.
Demons VS Demons
*THAT'S SOME FUCKING COOL SHIT RIGHT THERE!!!*
The mod's HUD seems to be inspired by Diablo series. Interesting
lol "seems"
SPTX Ohh, thanks for grammar pointout there. Fixed it
I hadn't even noticed actually. I was making fun of the uncertainty of your statement.
SPTX Hehe... well, I think I commented way too soon cause Icarus later does point out HUD'S similarity to Diablo;;;
Diablo was good
It's a bolter!
Another thing I would add, is that this is one of those mods that needs a mapset made specifically for it. Vanilla Doom 1 and 2, and most other mapsets seem to be too enclosed to allow you to use the Barons abilities to their full extent. It's still huge fun though
If this was a doom game where a demon got his soul back and just decimated hell.
That would be cool
The guy that head this Idea , should get a RAISE !!!
Great content Icarus! Mod looks really fun
Fyi, you can just run through the zombies and imps ... they'll splat everywhere.
Works on :
DOOM
DOOM 2
Final DOOM
Plutonia Experiment
DOOM - TNT - Evilution
Heretic & Serpent Riders
Hexen ( if you don't mind using only your claws, ground slam, boulder toss, and hero class weapons that sometimes work ).
The birth of the Doom 2016 Baron.
I like this mod.
This kinda seems like guncaster dosen't it?
dusty taco but lore friendly
Another awesome mod you bring to us. Thank you.
How do you go about displaying the status bar? When I tried the mod, I couldn't get the status bar to show. Edit: I realized that you had to use the plus and minus keys.
You also have to turn the Alt hud off to use the baron hud.
Baron and Doomguy teaming up would be like Master Chief and Arbiter.
This needs to be a series of mods
I like the Diablo inspired Hud with the barons on each side.
Can't wait to check this out with Alien Vendetta and a monster pack.
Very interesting mod... i wish this mod had more monsters to play as, would love to play as a Revenant or Cacodemon , Mancubus or Archvile...
God forbid the doom guy runs into this Baron.
Those gibs are glorious. Reminds me of the first version of Quake 3.
Real talk for a second, you're like the Billy Mays of DOOM mods.
That azazel shotgun is making me moist... I've been having an idea about a ultramoddable weapon and that shotgun is soooo friggin' close to it!
The Baron must be like: fuck this shit the i am going to the winning side. *proceed to join the doomguy*
I can imagine the sequels to this one: Hearts of Demons 2: Cacodemon, Hearts of Demons 3: Archvile, Hearts of Demons 4: Spider Mastermind, and last, but certainly not least, Hearts of Demons 5: Cyberdemon.
He misses being an Archangel
This Baron is on steroids. I'd hate to be the Doomguy who has to fight him
This mod is fucking AWESOME. Totally off the wall crazy awesomeness
You were among the Great once. See yourself becoming the thing you set out to fight. You are just another doom guy now.
It would be actually a nice twist in one of these mods that you gain powers, or overpowers and in the end you have to play as a doom space marine against your own achievement boosted baron :D
Oh wow, this mod got some serious upgrades since I played it last.
This feels like when you able to play as a demon in doom 2016
Play as a Baron of Hell, Wooo!
The Baron can use guns, uh what?
Baron feel better. Management defeated. Baron want own complete game.
Demons don't have hearts. But they do have Souls.

2:48 Downloading now, I need that shotgun yesterday.
This mod has a better magic system than most rpg’s
I wonder of anyone made an archvile version. All enemies against you until you kill and resurrect them. Then they fight on your side.

i played this about a year ago, it got updated quite abit
