Can former humans be saved?

[Scorpinax]

I think if the zombies are the reanimated corpses of dead soldiers, no way to save them.
If they are living humans possessed by demonic entities, they could probably be saved.
But Doomguy is battling an active invasion, so over the course of the games theres no time to stop and figure out a cure.
 

It is a fun idea though. I'm imagining a horde of like 20 chaingunners suddenly turning back to normal in the middle of a hell fortress and deciding to just shred all the demons instead of Doomguy.

With a GZDoom mod, sure, but canonically, I don't think so. Wasn't there some bit in the story where scientists and soldiers who went through the portals to Hell ended up being brain-dead, bloodthirsty psychopaths?

No, I cannot be saved.
