Pretty impressive what can be done with the old tools.
Yeah but check out the build times on even mediocre SINGLE wads. Minute-long BSP build times also meant that you could only do so many tests/corrections before throwing the sponge.

They [Demons] are also really bad at infighting.
For that matter, they are really bad at fighting in general due to their extremely delayed stop-and-attack pattern (compared to other monsters). A melee-only monster that sucks at melee, heh.
I see imps/knights/barons provoking demons all the time, with the demon uselessly chasing them, reaching them, and attacking, but with the other monster never stopping moving, and thus the demons bite nothing but solid air, while the other monster concentrates on you. It may take several attempts before the demons even manage to land an attention-diverting bite.
They even manage to miss full-frontal attacks, somehow, if the distance isn't just right, so they can't be really relied on to be efficient damage dealers in infighting. I've seen Demons being taken down by imps simply because they still managed to miss most attacks, while the imps clawed AND moved a bit every time.
