About This File

I call this particular level "Showdown". The reason for this is probably most apparent early in the game. My favorite four of the enemy list are represented here in droves, and classy weapons and bonuses abound (except for the BFG- 9000, which I thought made things a little too easy, and we can't have that...), as well as some crafty secrets and traps.

Four things to remember while playing:

1:Watch your ammo levels (health too!!) 2:Watch your ass as well! 3:If it smells like a trap, it probably is... 4:All secrets are in sequence; if you miss one, you won't be able to leave!

It is a real run for your money, but if you keep these things in mind, it's acually kind of easy after awhile ;) . BTW: Don't forget about the strafe maneuver!!

An early "slaughter" (not really) level. Very dumb and ugly. The only mildly entertaining thing about it is the buggy line that allows you to get out of the map (which is exactly the direction you should be going in).

A large, very plain hall (and some siderooms) filled with big packs of various monsters. You have plenty of firepower and health, so it's pretty easy. An old-school slaughter map, sort of. It's surprisingly fun to play, actually. The action takes place both on big, high ledges and far below, on the ground. Make sure the groups of Cacos don't close in on you from above while you're down on the ground. No secrets. --2/5

      Unloved

      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.

      The Darkening Episode 2
      By LouigiVerona · Posted
      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

      The Revenant Problem

      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.
