Remind me why this got so popular

Because it's an impressive mod that pretends to be ass

It's the presentation. He passed it off as a short crappy one-map Doom mod and the beginning has all the usual cliches of bad Doom mods, but then it turns out to be absurdly complex and full of secrets to slowly uncover while still only being one map and that actively fucks with Doom players' expectations.

Why are you making the fact you don't like something out problem?

The house itself was already detailed as fuck though

The whole map changing as you played it gimmick. Doing more advanced iterations, and weird puzzles that evolved out into separate levels. Is the overarching story groundbreaking stuff? No, but i'm only familiar with three times someone has done the whole repeating room branching out into obtuse puzzles setup.

It's popular because it does really amazing things for a Doom WAD.
Other than that though it's very generic and mid.
