About This File

You have been assigned to investigate a distress call from the UAC experimental weapons lab in the mountians of Peru. Upon arrving, you find a bloodbath; the bodies of your comrades lie strewn everywhere, and the base is deathly quiet. The enitre lab is in total security lockdown mode, and it appears that something HUGE busted in from the ceiling. Your objective is to recover the weapons from the armory, kill any invaders that you find, and make sure that the lab does not remain in enemy hands by finding and activating the self-destruct mechanism.

It's not too bad. I don't care much for pressing computer walls much, as you have no indication that that's what they are there for. ***

Fun, despite some of the sneaky traps. 4/5

This is from March 2001. It is E4M4. It's a techbase. I got stuck quite early on because it's one of those levels where you have to press computer wall textures rather than buttons. Elsewhere there are invisible barriers that block your path and a large dark area with flashing lights. You get all the weapons (including the BFG) and a huge load of ammo right at the start, although there are only a hundred and fifty or monsters, mostly sergeants and imps. Poor.

It's a perfectly good map. No need to get lost or stuck, unless you expect everything to be spoonfed to you.

      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.
