One user claimed it would be “insulting” if they didn't appear, assuming they didn't bother to show the monster door “because they'll obviously be in the game.” The same user described the Demon Doors as “so fantastic and strangely legendary that they had to appear”, and this was a common sentiment throughout the thread.
