The two most underrated Doom-era FPS for me are Exhumed/Powerslave (DOS version) and Redneck Rampage: Rides Agani.

Everybody knows about the console versions of Exhumed/Powerslave, but nobody cares about the DOS version which is a shame.
It has some of my fav Doom-era level design. Those levels are the very essence of what made levels of that genre period great, but incredibly well thought-up and on steroids with moving sectors.
The game uses an older version of Build.

It also has great atmosphere. Combat (enemies, weapons) ares good although nothing groundbreaking.

If you praise Doom-era level design, with its specific layouts and its moving sectors, do yourself a favour and play this game. Just make sure to download a good version, as some bad rips are shared on shovelware "abandonware" websites, like rips with no musics or even beta versions! Your best bet is to find an iso of Exhumed, so it has music and you're sure it won't be beta, plus Exhumed fixes a few things from Powerslave.
