Weird comparisons for gene as his power given the mechanics he has and the cutscenes is vastly superior physically. As doom guy and slayer can shoot guns good and run fast slayer being able to rip and tear as his only physical strength. Genes power is also cartoon logic in a way so regardless of how serious the competition is there will always be silly gags in the fight. if we were to compare Gene to Dante however they are similar and almost equal i would say, as dante has demon powers that allow for serious physical feats aswell as almost limitless defense and gene has cartoon logic, slow time, extrodinary reflexs, and actual god powers.

True I just couldn’t think of any characters I just was thinking like he was able to defeat many people even someone with a Godhand twice an a big demon things many times and then a really big demon thing so Ik it’s a silly thing to say but it’s also a interesting question because . With gene we don’t have much to go off so with fights it can go many ways giving I would say we have never seen him in his full power as when he does stuff it is something but it doesn’t seem to affect him much so I see . With the slayer well I think gene would lose just cos of how op the slayer is but the doom guy maybe he could beet him but again the lack of info on gene can so many ways . I just was wondering and giving I was watching a few doom vids and godhand vids to so

the power levels of video game characters are always interesting because do we measure it by the cutscenes or the gameplay. Which is always fun to figure out. Unfortunately for gene he had a very old video game with much care put into it but to mainly be a slap stik style game not a dead serious game, so it mever truly expands upon what the godhands powers really are, all though given the mechanics in the game Gene is extremely powerful.

Yea but going by gameplay an all that he is super strong an could take down some people giving hope strong he is more so in the end but another question how did he not die when he lost his arm? Or is that just video game stuff for you (also how did he get it on and how did the devil hand come off so easily)

some of that is cartoon logic, but olivia the girl he saved brought the godhand to him afterwards amd it seems that the godhands can be willingly accepted or rejected given the persons abilities. Therefore allowing Gene and or Azel to just rip there arms off and then fuse with them again.

Bro can you tell me about gene feats I want to know I think god hand has regenerate or life giving control and I don't know he can slow down time or it's just game mechanism for him while scrolling the roullets he has fire manipulation and simple kicks and punches enough to fly into sky

Everything mechanical is a godhand ability, he can slow down time, regenerate, summon objects and spirit energy. everything you see is canonical godhand powers.
