I played through the first three episodes of Wolfenstein 3D "vanilla" and did all of the Nocturnal Missions episodes using BW3D. BW added a couple of huge QoL improvements but also went overboard in some ways IMO. I didn't need ADS and I certainly didn't need reloading, though I suppose that this likely helps balance power given the increased control over your character (and therefore, reduced difficulty of the gameplay itself). Due to the updated control schema (proper WASD/mouselook), the core gameplay loop was much easier, but again, compensation came in the form of many enemies (especially the soldiers in black and all bosses) being HUGE bullet sponges who would hitscan fire with near perfect accuracy almost instantly when entering a room. Tons of save-scumming needed but it was an enjoyable enough experience.
