   (17 reviews)

About This File

This is a localisation patch which changes Doom to use British spellings. It replaces the status bar graphic and changes some of the internal messages using dehacked.

Use british.wad when playing Doom 1 or Final Doom: Plutonia.

Use britd2.wad when playing Doom 2.

Use brittnt.wad When playing Final Doom: TNT:Evilution.

No, sorry but you're wrong. Britain has used the short scale (1 billion = 1000 million) since the 1970s. The long scale (1 billion = 1 million million) has not had widespread official or popular use in Britain for a long time now.

Five stars because it shows the nit pickiness of our lovely british allies. :P Canadians and Americans need not to look at this, unless they want to feel a taste of England. Nice attempt at making Doom look like it came from British developers. ~cson

It's odd. "Badass" is inherently American and just changing ass to arse doesn't work. "Bad" is an Americanism and "badarse" doesn't flow properly. It should be "big arseholes" or "big fuckers". Arse isn't quite the same as ass; there are subtleties. In Britain you can kick someone's arse, and you can kick arse, but you'd rarely describe a thing as being kick-arse.

So, you (fraggle) want to be as prissy and nitpicky as possible and create a british localization patch, but you can't even do it right as described by the reviewers above. I am very dissapointed. Do you even think that even a british doomer is going to play with this loaded up every time?

@reviewer 2: apparently you can use the word "kick-arse" as an englishman (source: id=11804). Anyway, this is one of the most pointless and redundant mods out there. If I really wanted to localize my doom into the britfag version, I would use the blessed engine, that has funny british messages and a good status bar.

Splendid stuff old bean. There are only two things I like about the US, one: they made DOOM, and two: it's 3,000 miles away! Anyway our billion is bigger than theirs. 4/5 -jb

      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.
