: really original, you may be disappointed. A lot of what you'll see in
: WMaiD will be familiar, as if in a dream. Much of his map layouts are
: adapted from other scenarios, but his modifications are seamless and the
: implementation is brilliant. Just because a stretch of a map looks like
: something you've played before doesn't mean you'll have any advantage in
: playing it over the novice.
Does that include adapting map ideas/layouts from other games, such as Strife, Dark Forces, Quak [sic], or Halo?
: Although WMaiD may not go down in the annals
: of Marathondom as one of the greatest, it will be a blast to play.
"Good artists borrow, great artists steal." Lost of people said that about Bungie themselves. On the other hand, it seems fair to hold out "great" for his next creation, at which point he can steal from himself.
Also, maybe "art" is tainted now. In which case, I propose the theory that great game creators steal too.
