Rendering is not the main problem with GZDoom performance, Actors are, or rather the way GZDoom handles translating Decorate and ZScript.

Enforcing Vulkan will cut off anyone with not-up-to-date rigs. I have Geforce 660 Ti, and while I can play most games at 50-60 frames and medium-high graphics (like Wolf New Colossus, with some tweaks), whether or not the game will run wih a Vulkan is a gamble - half of them do, half of them don't, even with the drivers up to date. Aforementioned New Colossus only uses Vulkan and it runs fine, Talos Principle runs fine on Vulkan too, but nuDoom crashes when I try to select it and Ashes of the Singularity does not even start with it.

I was always saying that it is good.

Heretic is a reskinned Doom, and that's why it is great - because Doom on its own is great. The resason it succeeds where other Doomclones failed is because it copied the Doom formula completely, then added a few extra tweaks to it without spoiling the main compound.
I also find stock levels to be much better designed than the stock levels of D1/D2 (sans E1).

In fact, right now I am trying to cobble together a proper fantasy-themed weapon mod for it :P. frankenspriting the shit out of the available resources and learning Decorate/ZScript.

umm... I havent played it but that's a bit worrying. Back in the day I found Hexenhanced to be cool. It is old as hell and IDK if it still works.
