Usually when choosing a thumbnail I try to take a screenshot that shows a view of the map where I would instantly know what map I'm in. In the Fistula, the only view of the map that fits that criteria is I guess the first view when the map is loaded, since I recognize those 2 doors and the staircase. Doesn't mean its a good design, I just recognize them. Since my usual method wouldn't work, then I just tried to find a view of a part of the map that looks good. This is the best I could do and I am not satisfied because I think that room sucks as much as the others. The hall with the monsters behind fake walls with teleporters is interesting but really annoying because you cant tell when its empty. Also grabbing the yellow key only works at some angles. You can skip it if you enter straight on. What even is a "Fistula"? Well the dictionary says "An abnormal connection between organs". I guess that makes sense. The transition rooms between actual rooms are the only visually memorable parts, and the map itself is a connection between one bad map and another bad map. Very very master level.
