Scythe 2. Version 2

About This File

This is the sequel to my old megawad "Scythe". Expect better looking and bigger levels. unfortunately, the last 3 levels are missing, because I am so lazy and I haven't been satisfied with my attempts at making map28. I _might_ release the last 3 maps some time in the future, but do not count on it. (Update: the last 3 maps are now completed!)

Today (6/10/05) I found out there was a scythe 2. I loved and played the original one so much becuase it was as good as AV at that time. Now, never thinking there would be a sequel since its been so long, here it is. I loved Eriks work before and I still like it today even though his style has slightly altered. A complete, undivided, legendary 5 out of 5. 5/5 *****

Awesome game-play. Fantastically challenging. Unique ideas I have personally never seen before. Awesome division into episodes, and two of the coolest new monsters ever! BAD ASS. 5/5 -infirmity

Another disappointment. It turned out to be worse than its predecessor. Sure, it's got some great new graphics and the gothic medieval and Egyptian maps were fantastic, but that's the best thing I can say about this WAD. I don't like it when the later maps are all about collecting tons of cellpacks/megasphere s and blasting endless hordes of revenants/hellknight s/mancubi with the BFG, and I HATED those evil marines with a passion! I'll stick with the first Scythe, sorry. 3/5

wow, this was really fun. i thought my doom binge had come and gone until i started this wad, totally addicting and super awesome to play on brutal doom. i got a couple speed runs on ultra violence on the first try without ever having played the level before which makes this noob happy xD

This wad is unfortunately overrated. The first six levels are great, but then the next six begins with stupid lack of ammo.

Amazing!I never review a set untill I finish it, but here i'll make an exeption.I'm on map 5 and what waited for me right away was a sweeping chapel area that is among the prettiest i've seen in doom maps.If you, like me did not particularly enjoy Scythe, you can forget about that megawad right away as this is just a completely different story.I'm sure when I finish it it'll be among the classic megawads in my book.

Great maps up to the point it simply gets unfair. Hardcore/HR gameplay is fine and I consider myself to be an expert player. However, in the later maps, the player just have to rely on luck, wich is an absolute no-go IMO. Take that one part map25 for example: The area closes as soon as you enter it, you flip a switch and suddenly are sorrounded by revenants, CHAINGUNNERS and there're a few of those uber-marines as well. Again, hard gameplay is fine, but this is just ridiculous... Still 4/5

      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.
