Yeah, Plutonia II or MM3 would be an awesome thing but.... It´s still not Flashback ; )
The great thing about Flashback in my opinion was that it is strictly Doom 1. It perfectly brought back the unique Doom 1 feeling which is noticably different to the later stuff AND it had the potential to push it in some places to a whole different level! Don´t get me wrong. I do not want to say Doom 1 is better than 2 but all great projects and megawads that I know of are based on Doom 2. So a change would be nice.
Playing the Flashback Demo was just such a refreshig thing for me and was the FIRST project of it´s kind that really brought back those very old days into my memory.
I hope someone takes over or works on a similar wad. No new textures, no new sounds, no new monsters, weapons, or other fancy unnecessary stuff. Just plain simple Doom ; )
btw: if there already exists an awesome quality Doom 1 megawad (episode) then please let me know. The stuff that I know of is just not good, but I also have to admit that I did not touch the old archives or check them since a very long time. I too had the opinion that everything that is Doom 1 must be crap and outdated by now compared to Doom2 releases which was probably true at that time ; )
