@@TheBeastUnleashed87 thats actuslly really cool to think of. They really wanted a huge boss for the start, but couldnt. So now they really wanted to go all out
Personally didn't find this guy too threatening. Even the first knight of hell from doom 3 was far more threatening than this guy xD Then again, doom 3 was especially made to be more horror-like.
Y'know, it makes me wonder if crucible has a "hook" design to the blade for that very reason. So that you can break it off and leave it stuck in there.
Originally I thought Doom Slayer will use the damaged sentinel Mech in the Doom Lair (and fix it in some part before the fight), but Slayer doesn't need it to begin with.
The Slayer should've fought the Icon of Sin butt-naked, but that would be even more unfair. But I've always wanted to see Florida Man rip and tear the devil!
@Georgy Davydov maybe , maybe not , but hugo said hes a big fan of mech , worked om deltoro pacific rim and how we saw doom guys own mech under construction ... we also know that he didnt killed the titan with his bare hands , used the crucible to keep them frozen with that argent energy , when removed its like that titan was regenarating . Same thing we saw at the end with icon of sin ..... i feel like next doom game gonna be big with titans and stuff . Kinda like kratos going against multiple titans in gow triology . IOS might even come back , After all icon of sin fight does feel like they took the idea from GOW game . Maybe even use mech as an option ...
I just love that lil zombie ending, just innocently playing with someone" toys without asking for their permission and then the owner shows up, that one is big cliffhanger already. Will Doom Eternal have any DLCs soon? Like Im expecting a new spider mastermind as a mini boss.
I kinda hope they add a Marauder in the Master Level. Once you get the hang of the fight it becomes mostly just about dodging the Icon's attacks and the Marauder would make it hellish again. Even for someone who's beaten the fight on every difficulty.

The Shieldhero In Doom 2, when you fight the original Icon of Sin, it says a garbled voice line. When you slow it down and reverse it, it says: “You must beat me, John Romero!” John Romero was one of the founders of ID and the director of the game. If you noclipped through the body of the Icon, you would see that it is in fact, John Romero’s head on a spike.
The boss fight is absolutely insane, the most intense one I've had in a while. I was already having doubts, but now I'm 100% certain I'll never be able to finish this game on ultra-nightmare like I did with Doom 2016.
I just beat the game on ultra nightmare and this is an incredibly intense boss fight. Having to fight the Icon while dealing with the demons it spawns is crazy. It's really going to be something to see someone take down this guy on ultra nightmare
@@Alex-vp7lm and the betrayer is theorized to be Doomguy aka Doomslayer. Since the betrayer got burried under a temple. Where do we find Doomguy/doomslayer. Trapped inside a burried temple. Everyone fears the protagonist for what the Betrayer had done. And in Doom Eternal when the first Meruader who is a corrupted Night Sentinel speaks to Doomguy/Doomslayer. He says and I quote "You were never one of us. You were a mere urspur. A FALSE idol." Which leans heavy on the betrayer part.
Now this is what a final boss looks like!! I played this on hurt me plenty and man does he push your shit in, literally knocking me off the map in the first phase, so much fun tho! id software have seriously done this game justice and then some!
So it was Deag Grav who facilitated the torument and betrayal of Commander Valen. Deag Grav and the demons then took advantage of the Betrayers weakness, for the lost of his son. Told Valen that they could bring his son back. And used Valen's son heart to animate the Icon Of Sin. A titan of pure destruction.
@@thewannabemartialartist4613 Oh its easy to know what to do, the hard part is doing it. Sure its easy to aim at the two torso pecs and arms, but while being constantly bombarded and assaulted by demons make it a tad bit harder since you have to multi-task between hurting the Icon of Sin and making sure you have enough ammo and health to make it through
Piper 9080 idk I just wasn’t that impressed with the how difficult it looked. He was wiping out most of the demons with 1 hit so I feel like they were never really a threat. Now don’t get me wrong it looks fun as HELL but it just didn’t look that tough of a fight. I also really hate that they tell you what to do in the fight. That may be a very small thing to nitpick but I just hate that shit
THIS is how you make a last boss, a gigantic imposing demon, i played it on ultraviolence and shit gets intense, can't wait to do him on higher difficulties!
It's actually quite poetic to know that the Icon of Sin was originally supposed to be a gigantic boss, until hardware limitations bogged him down to just a fightable wall
I love how despite the size difference, by the end of the battle the Icon of Sin has been ripped to shreds and collapses exhausted and literally unable to fight anymore, and the Doomguy doesn't have a scratch on him.
Are we gonna glaze over the fact that a regular gun and- sure, some laser blasters were able to knock out chunks of his body? Whatever guns doom guy is using, the military has to get on that.
@@godzillakaijuboy ok, then in that case I would have wanted the Slayer to put the crucible into the bfg 10000 and shoot it like an arrow straight to the Icon's head
I expected something a little more climactic, in fact the icon's design was just plain meh and having it just get electrocuted (or whatever) and falling down, well, that was just crap. Oh well.
I just finished this game 10 minutes ago. There is an argument to be had about the best FPS campaign ever.... this is right up there. What an adventure
It's kinda reminiscent of the final boss fight from Mass Effect 2 but better since you actually have to fight the thing instead of just shooting a couple of portable nukes.
Now while in Doom 2 the Icon of Sin was just a wall texture, sometime in 2013 (before both of the Doom reboots were released) however, a famous Doomer who goes by the name, SgtMarkIV did created a mod for Doom 2 that replaces the original Icon of Sin with the giant monster version of it, similar to what we see here. This Doom 2 mod is called “Real Icon of Sin” and SgtMarkIV made this mod the same reason why ID Software had the Icon of Sin here be a giant monster which is that the Icon of Sin in Doom 2 wasn’t originally going to be a wall texture but had to use the wall texture instead because of limitations at the time of the creation of Doom 2. The real Icon of Sin mod is playable on modern source ports of the classic Doom such as ZDoom-type source ports as these source ports have a lot less limitations than DOS.
I finished Doom Eternal about a week ago and the final boss battle with the Icon of Sin is one of my favorite boss battles based on the atmosphere of the soundtrack and how cool he looks.
I don't remember having a fight this INTENSE in years! Had my hearth pumping and my mind at light speed, so much gore and action, so violent, so perfect, when I finished I felt so satisfied. 10/10
unsettling fact: the icon of sin cannot actually die, the only option to 'kill' it is by using the crucible which is a sleeping pill for a titan that will go in slumber. if the crucible blade is removed, they will reawaken once more. just proves that the titans in doom are immortal.
Not to mention the hesitance to use Ballista over Plasma Rifle or Super Shotgun over Combat Shotgun, and basically no use of the micro-missiles which absolutely *melt* the Icon.
Khan maykr:alergic to rockets,has some basic argent based attacks and a giant beam Icon of sin:has lasers,flames from hands,flames from forehead,giant forehead beam,summon monsters,insta kill monsters and can summon the heavens to come and shit on your door These two should be reversed WHO DESIGNED THIS?
@@11e1cess3 im not complaining but for how powerful the khan marketed herself to be you'd expect a lot more than 7 lock on bursts and 4 blood punches to take her down we didn't even get a decent glory kill she just died right there on the floor
This was honestly my favorite boss fight in doom eternal. I think this was more epic than the doom ii icon of sin boss fight. The campaign was very challenging but yet I was satisfied with everything. I think Id software really outdid themselves here.
@Nick Gurr I know fighting a huge demon head on the wall isn't much of a boss fight but I was glad they brought back icon of sin here in doom eternal as an actual demon to defeat.
i just wanna give a shoutout to the strongest skyscraper in the world; it withstood the icon of sin's incessant pounding and the weight of doomguy's balls at the same time. props!

Hands down my all time favorite boss fight. Nothing beats this
hard disagree, this is so lame
I remember back when all you had to do was shoot a wall using rockets
Nice, good job. I don't think you were missed a single time. You managed to get hit almost every time. Impeccable 😉
2:44 "that moment when you start freaking out, looking for a Zombieman!"
I was hoping for a big finisher kill like the spider mastermind. I wanted blood to drench the arena but ok.
same I wanted the Slayer to somehow use the Bfg 10000 to blow up the Icon
I'd figured rocket launcher would have a special place in this fight or at least the finisher, but the sword one was good. In the brain!
Saitama ? Only a crucible can kill it. That’s why he has it.
@@godzillakaijuboy ok, then in that case I would have wanted the Slayer to put the crucible into the bfg 10000 and shoot it like an arrow straight to the Icon's head
I expected something a little more climactic, in fact the icon's design was just plain meh and having it just get electrocuted (or whatever) and falling down, well, that was just crap. Oh well.
It was all fun and games for the demon until one guy wakes up from his nap...and reclaimed his sword
This is exactly how The Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild goes too
I imagined doomguy using those jaegers from earlier levels.
ian gutchii I honestly thought that those were gonna be used against the titans
I just finished this game 10 minutes ago. There is an argument to be had about the best FPS campaign ever.... this is right up there. What an adventure
It's kinda reminiscent of the final boss fight from Mass Effect 2 but better since you actually have to fight the thing instead of just shooting a couple of portable nukes.
*"To win the game, you must kill me! John Romero!"*
I didn't expect you comment that fast.
e1m1 with a heaviest metal cover on this battle would make you feel unlimited power and anger
Skyclad Nah, E1M1 would be better.
Skyclad Yeah, But it’s a classic.
The icon of Sin que querían hacer en DOOM 2 original pero no les dió la tecnología. 40 años tuvieron que esperar.
Y lo que puede llegar a ser cuando hagan un Doom con tecnología de inmersión total .
Magnifico quedo este jefe reinventado .
Love how doom slayer treats killing the lord of hell as an average day on the job
*thats because it is a average day*
Now while in Doom 2 the Icon of Sin was just a wall texture, sometime in 2013 (before both of the Doom reboots were released) however, a famous Doomer who goes by the name, SgtMarkIV did created a mod for Doom 2 that replaces the original Icon of Sin with the giant monster version of it, similar to what we see here. This Doom 2 mod is called “Real Icon of Sin” and SgtMarkIV made this mod the same reason why ID Software had the Icon of Sin here be a giant monster which is that the Icon of Sin in Doom 2 wasn’t originally going to be a wall texture but had to use the wall texture instead because of limitations at the time of the creation of Doom 2. The real Icon of Sin mod is playable on modern source ports of the classic Doom such as ZDoom-type source ports as these source ports have a lot less limitations than DOS.
That moment when you, a fully armored Godzilla monster, get taken out by an ant with an ant-sized rocket launcher
Damn, just dished out those chainsaw kills like they were regular melee attacks
When you bite into ice cream: 13:28
yös.
I finished Doom Eternal about a week ago and the final boss battle with the Icon of Sin is one of my favorite boss battles based on the atmosphere of the soundtrack and how cool he looks.
I don't remember having a fight this INTENSE in years! Had my hearth pumping and my mind at light speed, so much gore and action, so violent, so perfect, when I finished I felt so satisfied. 10/10
I love how he moves his hands and how he explodes. It's so reminiscent of the old Doom.
0:03 came for this line
I like how there is a spike for the amount of views at 6:06 and its just the icon of sin being so thicc
unsettling fact: the icon of sin cannot actually die, the only option to 'kill' it is by using the crucible which is a sleeping pill for a titan that will go in slumber. if the crucible blade is removed, they will reawaken once more. just proves that the titans in doom are immortal.
I like how his fist is so strong it made me glitch out of the game.
Combined with landing on the jump pads. That explains why I felt like a pinball around the arena
I felt bad for the zombie at the end :(
Why
@@doralinz1 because he was just vibing
@@thebakawaffle5013 oh yes
Jesus , the audio and screams in this fight were nuts. Had to turn down my volume a bit cause I thought I was going insane
That is the fucking huge ass moving Icon of Sin that I ever seen in my goddamn life
Ill have fun sleeping tonight dreaming about a huge ass demon. Killing it yeh
This game is amazing, if you play this during the night it feels almost as if you were actually there
OMG as an old school gamer and fan of Doom I must say the new Icon of Sin exceeded ALL my expectations
Probably the largest boss I have ever killed in a first-person shooter. The fucker is enormous.
Just wanna point out this guy wasted two perfect good BFG shots
Not to mention the hesitance to use Ballista over Plasma Rifle or Super Shotgun over Combat Shotgun, and basically no use of the micro-missiles which absolutely *melt* the Icon.
icon of sin: *finally has a body*
Doomslayer:" oh yeah gonna rip and tear that one😏"
Khan maykr:alergic to rockets,has some basic argent based attacks and a giant beam
Icon of sin:has lasers,flames from hands,flames from forehead,giant forehead beam,summon monsters,insta kill monsters and can summon the heavens to come and shit on your door
These two should be reversed WHO DESIGNED THIS?
Are you confused? Why wouldn't the ICON OF FUCKING SIN have all those powers?
@@11e1cess3 im not complaining but for how powerful the khan marketed herself to be you'd expect a lot more than 7 lock on bursts and 4 blood punches to take her down we didn't even get a decent glory kill she just died right there on the floor
... And you will be their savior, your strength will be their shield, and your will... their sword, for your fight... is eternal.
This was honestly my favorite boss fight in doom eternal. I think this was more epic than the doom ii icon of sin boss fight. The campaign was very challenging but yet I was satisfied with everything. I think Id software really outdid themselves here.
@Nick Gurr I know fighting a huge demon head on the wall isn't much of a boss fight but I was glad they brought back icon of sin here in doom eternal as an actual demon to defeat.
6:06 - gosh that gave me chills.
Face Off that ass
Well done, congrats !!
Ever since 1994, THIS was the final boss we were all waiting for.
