Reaffirming that id is working on things related to improving replayability.
Would be cool to get some of the features that these mods provide integrated into the game, such as NG+ for the base game with the spear.
Personal Speculation: This was the Atlan Level and would've worked similar to Hellbreaker. (part Atlan-Part Slayer)

According to Jason Schreier, id Software have been hit by layoffs, allegedly losing 95 of their employees.
The Team approximately had150-200 before the lay offs, leaving approximately 60-80 devs left.
While the total number of employees laid off has not yet been officially confirmed, a number of id Software devs have already publicly announced that they've been laid off
My deepest condolences goes out to the ones affected, hopefully everyone can get back on there feet.
I've been a fan and followed the studio for a while now, so this news makes me incredibly upset and frustrated.
