The Good:

  - Mapsets were awesome. Non linear. Larger than medium sized.

  - "New" monsters were great!  

  - Loads of clever secrets - most of them rewarding

  - Great monster placement

  - Lots of shooting, some good puzzles

  - There's a Titan II

 

The Bad:

-  Maps 08 and 09 were a bit slaughtery, but nothing extremely outrageous.

-  Music could have been updated

 

I didn't think I would like this WAD at first, but it turned out that I really did have fun with it. It was a little slow getting started, but after the first 2 Maps, this game took off like a bullet! I wished it was longer, but hey, there's Titan II which, according to the reviews I've read, is even better!

 

Great job! Thanks for making this great WAD. :)

 

4.5 out of 5 Stars

it's ok. the one thing I don't like most is MAP08 where you had to kill a certain monster to proceed. combat is mostly good throughout. that last level is really slaughtery fun.

Pretty good, if a little uneven levelset. Gameplay is king here, while the looks can be rather bad at times. This wad has more innovation than quality, there was one particular trick that made me literally gasp in awe! The final level is the most interesting, although it brought my 1200 Mhz computer down to its knees...

Can't say I was a fan of this one. The design is great with attractive environments, sensible use of ZDoom features, and well-hidden secrets. Unfortunately the enemy placement and general gameplay flips between annoyingly boring and annoyingly frustrating, with many switchhunts made understandable only by the use of Duke3D-like camera screens. MAP09 looks incredible, and is probably the only level actually worth having a go at. 1/5

Ixnatifual has clearly put a lot of work into all of this using all the features and massive detailing. I was impressed, and the gameplay was like none other. Ending could be a biiit shorter though ;) 5/5 stars -Kirby

Still one of my favourites. The battle at the end around the giant Ziggurat thing remains one of my favourite Doom fights, and the later levels generally are all excellent. Many of the areas in the first few levels can seem a little unremarkable, but nevertheless they're all well crafted tech-bases. I have no complaints to make in the gameplay department, everything seemed balanced and on UV I had no major problems with either ammo or health.

Good design and layout in most maps but gameplay is irregular. Sometimes it´s a punch of adrenaline and sometimes is quite boring or has excess of monsters. It gets warmer and warmer while you go on, so don´t give up in the first two maps, that are really average and somewhat boring. The architecture is also irregular, from plain to detailed, but never with much eye candy. 3 stars.

Really great levels. I wouldn't be playing Doom 2 at all currently had it been for these levels.

Not quite 5, but a good 4.5. I'm sending in a 4 though, just to lower the overall rating. Still, great levels and a must play!

Annoyed me to no end. I hate it when someone wants to tell me how to play, take the scripted saves and the puzzles that are impossible without saving and shove them. Further: the author didn´t mention that jumping is required, searching for the unmarked secrets will more likely cause rsi than being fun and he expects the player to plow through 8 average levels before one that is good. 3/5

Awarding it two stars because Map 2 right next to the exit is bugged. Monsters will not trigger so it's impossible to exit the map and continue to the next map without cheating using either warp to next level or noclip to go through the wall to activate the monsters. This critical fail alone caused me to give up the wad though it does appear to be well designed. I'm intrigued enough by Titan 1 to want to play Titan 2 but I hope it's not bugged like this wad.

Supremely overrated - this should piss off most Doomers, the 12 year old's comments above notwithstanding. Very average design, very average scripting, and altogether very average.

Worth giving 5 stars for the mirror/hellknight trick alone (map7, afaik - check this out ). Add to that tastefully used slopes, best usage of industralish textures ever, great dark atmosphere and breathtaking landscape of the last level and you have asskicking set. Too much good stuff to mention - play it by yourself -- Brun Ohn

      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.
