I do already have them. To suit my own artistic vision, I don't give most of my objects shaders. I personally feel that not everything should shimmer with a glow. I've been that way the whole time with FPSC. The only time I really use a shader to simulate reflective light is when I have metallic objects in my scene.

I do have bloom turned on though I've masked it the lightning placement. I modified the shader file as well so the glow isn't so heavy. Once again, these choices were all toward the design goal.
The door ways are a good idea but I'm going to try and keep a claustrophobic build style for the majority of the game. I could possibly do it for doors leading outside; we will see.

Thanks for noticing Bugsy. Admittedly however I had not put that much thought into it. My game design is sort of loose-canon in a sense where I try new things to see how well it will look when tying different elements together.
I appreciate the feedback from all!
