Let's talk about hitboxes. You see this nasty little purple shit? Now make it so it takes about five shots to kill it. Every enemy in this fucking wad has narrow hitboxes for no good reason. Sure, it's not so bad when you have ammo for the machine gun, but this wad is STINGY AS FUCK when it comes to ammo. You get about five bullets for every mook you kill. The only weapon you have abundant ammo for is the shotgun. Keep in mind this shotgun doesn't function any differently to the vanilla Doom shotgun, in that it fires a fan of bullets in a horizontal line. The big difference here is the shotgun is bad because it can never hit anything due to narrow as fuck hitboxes.

Even the fucking Baron stand-ins (which are also hitscan enemies that always come in pairs) have tiny little hitboxes. 50% of your shotgun blast will just plain fucking miss them. If you're going to have an enemy which is a big threat, then they should have a big fucking hitbox. Or you should give the player ammunition for a weapon which can ACTUALLY HIT THEM.

Basically this. Anon's out for now. I don't know if I'm gonna make it through to the end.
