I thought these remakes are supposed to look and play better than the originals...

I liked the idea of you sliding down instead of a wall at the end but not much else except that

This is dated September 2003. It's a variation of Doom's E1M8, and it reminded me of id=11916, which is a speedmapping competition with the same idea. This is much better, the design is slicker, with a couple of clever ideas. There are more baddies and enough ammo to kill them, provided you engineer some in-fighting. Still, it suffers from being E1M8; you kill some demons, then some more, then some barons and then you exit, there's not much to it.

A bit silly to just redo E1M8 for a randon single level. Must have been a filler map.

To the above reviewer: Why the snotty comment? Just review the map in its own right. And this map (originally made for Flashback) is pretty good.

      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.
