DOOM:RL is one of the fastest, shortest and simplest roguelikes there are... and that's how it should be.
If it's not broken - don't fix it.

You know what ? Let's make unlockables optional. Just IMAGINE they already are in the game and don't use certain things until you think you "achieved" them ;P.

Wow. Uh. Lot of condescension going on in here.
Really, I agree with the idea of making things not unlockable - I've been playing this game for 3+ years, but I've only beaten the game a handful of times. Playing the base game so many times has gotten a bit on the stale side, despite how much the game has changed over the years.
I've been doing some of the challenge ideas since long before they were official. I've loved the idea of a pistol only game, just because it plays so differently, etc. Some of the challenges just bore me, as compared to making the game more fun. I play the game for the challenge, sure, and really felt accomplished when I beat AoMr for my first time. Still, though, I ended up just replacing my Player File with Blade's, when he posted it a couple of weeks ago and have been having a blast with Ao100. Challenge, sure, but fun is more important.

if ur bored with standard DoomRL, and your an obsessive Rougelike lover like me, go rustle up T.O.M.E.
if u get bored with T.O.M.E. .................. nothing will EVER satisfy you! as for unlockable levels.... campaigns.... definetly! i had the original idea for having doomguy accept the offer hell makes at Hell's Arena, and become Hell's Champion (FLING DEM ACIDBALLS!!!), and my story says that he was the FIRST doomguy, the hero is #2, and while our hero wiped out Phobos, Doom, Hell's Champion led the forces of evil against Earth's defenses (So THAT'S how they beat earth's entire military when one lone marine beat the crap out of them on Phobos.....). so the Hell's Champion campaign is pretty cool. especially since you start out with the BCBC ("BCx2), the Beam Corruption Bio-Cannon (tainted BFG).... oww. you also have a combat shotgun to start, and as the Champion, u can fling acidballs like a Baron. and, the monsters help u. of course, the enemies are really fing strong. the weakest guy has a Minigun. not chaingun, minigun. ie swiss cheese = you!.... and you know whats funny? everything ive said after the story part ive just been typing up on the spot lol. still, the BCx2 and the acidballs are from way back when i first suggested this guy. note, the unlock could easily make you work for this campaign - unlocking gives you the option to accept the Hell's Arena offer... of course the offer is only made if you COMPLETE the arena. if you back out of the fights, too bad. its fairly early so... interesting idea huh? and the final boss could be the Terran General (and your superior, who sent you out to die.... revenge is cherished in hell, mercy is punished....) in some sort of battle mech! hmmmmm...........

Sachiko:
Wow... Just... Wow.

The idea of doing the "Evil path" is certainly seducing. Being in the other side of the conflict can prove to be an amazing point of view.

bfg9001:
Playing as "Evil" would be pretty cool. Didn't exactly picture it like that though, lol. A mech would be somewhat out of place.
