I can't help but share, both Quake 1 and Amnesia TDD had monsters called Grunts. Imagine if Amnesia Grunts were in Quake 1

In english, 'Grunt' is a general term used to imply 'foot-soldier' usually. The lowest ranking soldiers IRL are sometimes referred to as 'grunts', so the most basic enemies in Quake are referred to as 'grunts', and so too are the most basic foot soldier for That Guy's (forgot the name... Alexandria is it?) horrible mutant 'army' in Amnesia. If you look around, you'll probably find many games and movies that use the term 'grunt' as a name for basic fighting types.
Also, having ended most experiences with Amnesia Grunts tearing my face off, it'd be very satisfying indeed to pop out of a closet and nail-gun their balls off

Thanks for the info.

Yes, it would be soo fun scaring them for a change with nail guns and rocket launchers

Grunts always reminds me of the halo franchise, with the small grunts running around being worthless xD
