This is only a 5 level wad unlike most of the others mentioned here. new textures and tons of great music by essel and James Paddock. Back to Saturn X by esselfortium & friends. if you enjoyed this one definetely check out his previous work with Valiant and Lunatic. a fantastic, trippy blue and purple neon trip through the desert. (Medieval, Techbase, Tundra, HydroPlant, Hell, Heaven). 6 fantastic episodes each with their own theme. This was released last year and it is possibly the best of all time. That's typically what I'm most interested but there's other stuff that's worth highlighting as well. It really depends on what you're looking for.

Modern Wads get even crazier since some try to stay true to the original Doom games. Highly influential but harder than the classic Dooms and a little bit jankier and not as cleanly designed as Scythe 2. I also have a very soft spot for Alien Vendetta. It's 15 years old this year and is still just as incredible. Scythe 2 is still incredible and easily holds up to modern day wads. I have great nostalgia for a lot of these but really Hell Revealed 1 & 2 don't really hold up. Eternal Doom (not to be confused with the new Doom game). Legacy wads are the 'old school', highly influential ones. I could recommend 100s but there's basically 2 places to start - Legacy Wads and Modern Wads.
