DiceByte Posted December 1, 2023 So you know how you got the super shotgun, right? You controlled a revenant! Now, when you got that overpowered baby (the super shotgun), what did you do to that revenant full of fear? Did you kill it? Did you spare it? What did you do? Give me your answer. And if you want, you can explain why you chose to do what you did, and think whether or not you still think what you did at the time was right? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
leveste Posted December 1, 2023 I save my tokens until I get the SSG and give that Revenant the honour of beeing the first kill towards Meathook mastery. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
ARMCoder Posted December 1, 2023 (edited) I shot that Revvie and never gave a second thought about it... In fact I always thought the player was *supposed* to kill it in order to advance the mission. EDIT: in a way, I felt almost godlike while flying that Revenant, both in the Easy and in the Medium (HMP) skills (never tried in the UV and harder skills). It was the only moment I experienced that sensation of power fantasy, as the rest of the game seemed to me very punishing, even in the Easy level!

HavoX Posted December 1, 2023 I let him live. IMHO, A demon that is not a threat should not be shot. (Of course, I shouldn't be a backseat Slayer.) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
AtimZarr1 Posted December 2, 2023 I killed it. It's a demon in a Doom game and Revenants are supposedly in constant pain and agony according to the 2016 Codex anyways. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post
Chezza Posted December 2, 2023 I killed it. I hesitated to do so, but logically all factors were in favour in doing so. The questionable reasons to spare the the revenant are: It wasn't a threat - at that time We appreciated its service (unwilling service, mind) And here the reasons for killing it: It is a demon that wants the Slayer and any other human dead, regardless of it being forced to help you If it is left alive, who is to say it isn't unleashed back to earth to kill more innocence or even attack the Slayer? If there is any humanity left in it, it would be in agony and killing it would be a mercy 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
BGreener Posted December 2, 2023 Less “spared him”, more “paid him no mind”; a demon that can’t or doesn’t fight back is beneath my idea of the Slayer, and there ain’t no fun in shooting that either. (I was also was very ammo conscious on my initial playthroughs.) 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
DiceByte Posted December 2, 2023 Now knowing he was in extreme pain, I feel bad for letting him live. But then again, he was also in fear of me. Maybe next time I will kill him, but just for him, I’ll make it quick. He doesn’t need to suffer that much. He did do me a favour after all. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Eurisko Posted December 3, 2023 I believe it may be against the law not to. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post

Astar Posted January 8 A revenant is literally undead, so killing it would be an act of mercy. If it was a living creature, like an imp or Baron, hehe, I would let it live 1 Quote Share this post Link to post

UnclePhil Posted January 15 I blew it away on my first playthrough (I assumed you had to). Subsequent plays, even knowing I had the option not to, I still generally do. It seems the obvious thing to do and is too tempting to resist. It's still a demon. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
SilentD00mer Posted January 16 Well, an enemy that can't fight, so I don't shoot him. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
Kute Posted February 4 Yea I think I let him be the first few runs, I appreciated his service. But while it's been like a year since I've done the content, I feel like on newer playthroughs, which would have been the half a dozen hardcore mode attempts, I used him for a kill towards meathook upgrades or whatever the thing you're farming at the time is 0 Quote Share this post Link to post
ALilGrayBoi Posted March 23 I shot him because he looked at me funny 1 Quote Share this post Link to post
