: You wouldn't want to eat your dinner raw, now would you?
Feel sorry for the people here who don't eat cooked food, who have to wait the same as everyone even though they don't get the analogy.
: 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

: something you've played before doesn't mean you'll have any advantage in

Does that include adapting map ideas/layouts from other games, such as Strife, Dark Forces, Quak [sic], or Halo?

"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.
