@Nine Inch Heels The gameplay feel doesn't, but I'm talking about the feel of the atmosphere.  But that also raises the question of if the monsters/weapons/powerups alone would be enough to make a level feel like a "Heretic level" versus a "Doom level".  I'm thinking so.

I'm mostly just thinking out loud in type as I plan out my sequel to SoTNR.

I remember playing a heretic mod, that would make it so I could have heretic classes, weapons and powerups in traditional doom maps... felt pretty heretic to me...

Also, atmosphere has a lot to do with gameplay as well. Other than that, as long as you don't throw players into a techbase, you should be good to go...

If heretic ever had gotten a sequal in the past quake era- it would have looked a lot like some of the quake maps I'm sure...

So, your creation has deeper roots which touch another universe? Damn, that's awesome.
