Doom levels

Plese tell me something: why is every level in Doom and Doom 2 maze-like? I don't see why id didn't make some realistic looking levels. In Doom's E1M1 (Hangar) it's somewhat mazelike. I think it should have been designed to look like a real-life base. Same thing goes for Doom 2's Entryway (Level 1). I sure hope they make some realistic levels for Doom 3.

It was hard to do real-life stuff with the Doom engine. Anyway maze-like was cool. I think Doom 2 Map01 was a really nice level.

since when were E1M1 , E1M8 , E2M8 , E3M8 , Map 01 , Map 07 , Map 30 , Map 32 have been mazy kinda levels...sure the lot of them are mazy but to say all of them are is just pure wrong...but i do agree with you that there should be many more features to each level that would make it more realistic

If Doom 3 bombs (fat chance) what are you going to do, Doomer4Life?
