Scythe

   (451 reviews)

About This File

A 32 level megawad for doom2. This megawad doesn't have perfect texture alignment, insane detail and fantasticly hard gameplay. Instead it focuses on small fun maps to blast through without much thought about defense. The difficulty rises steadily as you go through the maps and the last few should challenge even the best.

You'd be hard pressed to find a finer example of an inverse build time to quality ratio than the one on display here.

A modern classic, simple fast paced and a lot of fun. Visually it holds up really well even now, and it's my fave out of the series, I can't score it less than 5.

This remains the best fan-made WAD I've played.

Really good wad. 1st like 25 levels are awesome. Then once you hit like lev 26 the levels are unplayable unless you know your cheat codes.

all these years and Scythe still remains one of the most fun mapsets to date. given their size, there really isn't anything that's truly noteworthy, apart from MAP26 and MAP30 which are slaughterfests in their own right. but this is still a quick mapset to plow through in a pinch.

Real weapons, anyone? I'm sorry, but I gave up on this one after the first couple of levels, after getting sick of having to kill everything with the pistol.

Awesome megawad for sure! This one of the few that I can say is 5/5 worthy. - THE_DAVE

A rather well-put together series of maps that fails to fully get my Doom blood boiling. Every room is either a square or a rectangle. Easy to make, not terribly stimulating to play. Still, 5/5 for serious execution. -- cjwright79

Fucking junk! Nothing but a big variation of levels and nice maps to play on, each with their own unique style, then when it fucking gets bad, it starts up again in the middle with insane dumb ass concepts of "slaughter" maps and such! it's so bad that i ended up rating this *****!!! keep it up guys!

Dquey is just a noob, ignore him. I liked maps 26 and 30, but I find this the most fun when played with Aeons of Death.

I'm not the first to say it, but insanely awesome! To prove that the author isn't kidding that these maps are short 'n quick, I must say that I managed to take less that one minute when nomonster speedrunning all but four maps (19, 27, 29, 30). In fact these maps look like speedmaps that weren't made under any strict time limits; in other words, the size is reminding of them, but unlike speedmaps, they are throughly polished. The few bigger levels were great too, despite feeling different. 5/5

This is still one of the best megawads out there. I've played through it quite a few times with a variety of players - Perfect balance of gameplay and clean aesthetics. 5 stars!

The greatest. In many ways this could be used as a template for the perfect megawad - purist 5/5

You quit just because the first two levels were pistol (and chainsaw)-only? Do you really have a hard time killing imps and former humans with the pistol? You get a shotgun on level 3, isn't that enough considering the toughest enemy you encounter in the first episode is the Baron? Anyway, this has to be the second best megawad ever (first should be obvious to anyone), so what if there are a couple of misaligned textures - 6/5 stars

      I genuinely enjoyed this mod with its level design and music. It was challenging and interesting and it kept me playing a while after beating it to try to find anything. though I would say it was slightly repetitive and overwhelming with enemies at some moments.

      Writing a review for Darkening 2 is tough. It's a beloved megawad, and for good reason. As many other reviewers have said, it is historically a very important project.   It was an important megawad for me personally. I fell in love with the first level in particular. The music, the realistic architecture, so reminiscent of the video games of the 90s... It all left a lasting impression. And it was one of the most beautiful wads I've seen at the time.   But I rarely played anyt

      A competently made map, for sure, but fun? It's way too long and repetitive, with same-y combat & ambush scenarios used again and again, and with way too much enemies, and not that much of a challenge, even for me who isn't exactly fond of "SUPER HARD WAD #9263!!!!11!. You can cut the whole thing in half, and then cut THAT half in half, and it would be a better map. Is it bad? No, just a little bit above average, mostly because it drags a bit too long.

      Generally good map design, but the difficulty as is the case with pwads tends to be uneven even on HMP, especially when you mix them with what slaughtermaps tend to be (monster spam). Too many parts where, after pressing a switch, you'll spend some time killing enemies only to realise the map maker tried to get cute and spawned a bunch of hidden archviles somewhere to start reviving everyone while you were busy wasting ammo. This is especially unfun in parts with very little cover where you'll b

      I like the part where I pay for the numerous murders I committed by getting beaten up by either a Mancubus or an Arachnotron, it changed my outlook on Monster Priority. Thank you "Problematic" Revenant #7, I have yet to find a way to repay him.
