What games do y'all think would make for good Doom wads and/or TCs?

Visually a Dragonquest mod could look great. Most of the mainline entries 4-7 were made using simple 3d maps with sprites and enemy designs that are nice but simply styled. Be best if some genius programmer could get turn based combat in Doom but pretty sure that's not possible, action RPG style would work too. Always get goosebumps when I hear that iconic title music.

 

Maybe would be best as mod for Castlevania Doom.

Yume Nikki made in Doom would be pretty interesting, because a shift from top-down to first person perspective would change a lot of how you could explore the dream world.

i would be interested in seeing these surreal landscapes with the inclusion of depth. RPG engines being RPG engines, their visual landscape is binary and verticality can only be imitated at best. I somewhat replicated some of the areas into a 3d engine years ago and the impression i received from a first person perspective was mad. It made things spookier in the claustrophobic, maze- like areas,the isolated and quieter areas felt lonelier, the forested areas were atmospheric with the trees dawning over my little mockery of Madotski

 

i would describe the overall difference being a sense of exploration and feel for the environment, this is something i lacked in the original game since it's presentation often felt like a slide show--but not to be disrespectful or insulting. One thing that sucks about the 3d replications of Yume Nikki is how a lot of the times it's just a flat landscape and lacks that 3rd dimension that makes the world feel real, this is why i would like a game like it but in a fully realized space. I have seen games like Naissancee do it and i think that's pretty cool

Killing Time game has real serious potential as a good TC if done right.

I love the ideas of System Shock and Hotline Miami TCs in particular.
