About This File

As I only have five living brain cells left, anything I type here as a description will make absolutly no sense.

See, I told you.

Points of Interest LOCKOUT HALLWAY

The very large hallway which starts at the west and east of the main room can be operated in such a way as to lock out other players while you are inside. There is a bank of switches located just inside each of the entery points which are used to close the bars to both entry points, locking yourself into the hallway. The two switches in the very south portion of the hallway are used to repoen one or both of the gates.

LOCKOUT RESTARTS

If you've already run DOOM with this level to check it out, you will have noticed that all the player and deathmatch starts are located on raised platforms. This is done for a reason. Any time someone dies and restarts on a platform, walking off the platform will reopen both gates of the lockout hallway. This is done to insure that the hallway cannot become locked out forever.

CELL ALERTS

In the control room (the room with the Baron of Hell behind the desk) there is a row of switches and a row of silver poles. Any time a cell door is opened, the pole representing that cell will lower to reveal a red bar. You can then hit the related switch and lock the other player into the cell. The cell alerts were originally set up so that when someone was actually in a cell they would activate, but I encountered resistance from DOOM to the way in which I tried to do this, so I changed it.

GAS CHAMBER EXIT

That's right, someone must be executed to end this level, and it takes two players to achieve. To end the level, have one player stand outside of the west door in the room just north of the cell block. The second player will then go through the eastern door, and hit the switch which will open the western door. When the first player steps into the gas chamber, he will suffer down to 10% health and the level will end. This was originally an electric chair, but I had problems making doom raise a floor and match it's type to the required type.

      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.
