About This File

This version is for DOOM ][. Another version for DOOM (1) can be found in the DOOM directory and is basically the same except for a couple of the new monsters from DOOM ][. [Note by the uploader: The file, that Wiberg talks here about, is /levels/doom/g-i/itp1_v1b.zip in the /idgames ftp-archives.] This WAD started out as a test for what a WAD- editor can do since I recently found out you really can make your own WADs. Tip: there are a lot of illusionary walls around this place that's for sure. I should have replaced DEMO2 with an LMP but after 15 minutes the demo fucks up. So instead in the ZIP-file I included the LMP of me completing the WAD getting as many percent as I could, of course on ultra violence. The LMP seems to work fine but not if I (with DoomEd 3,0 alpha 8) convert it to a demo. Included in the WAD, at MAP02, is also an demo of my next WAD, or the next after that. DEMO1 is also replaced with a quite astonishing LMP of me getting no damage at all on ultra violence and getting to the end of the WAD (it is not ready yet which you certainly will see). Hey maybe I will make a whole new episode, who knows (your hateful or whatever Email will decide that (good thing it is'nt possible to send bombs via this type of mail (viruses are not welcome))).

Hints: In the lava-pit you should try to get on top of one of the pillars and then jump to the other, and then jump onto the ledge in the north wall long BEFORE this pillar reaches the ceiling. Watch DEMO1.

The monsters in the "monster-conference"-room need not be attacked square on, there are other ways. This goes for the whole level.

OMG! Primitive and boring layout, boring texture use, on places overly dark + crossfire, a zillion of textured lines with shooting enemies behind, a zillion of non-hinted but essential secrets, incomprehensible gameplay and @ UV not enough ammo for being even remotely playable. Author clearly shows not to understand even remotely concepts like ambiance and gameplay. But hé, this is from 1994, so you can expext that. Overall not 0, but small 1* for the effort because in 1994 DB2 did not exist yet.

Rated 3.4, MAP01, MAP02 A connected series of secret rooms with little other logic. Spend a day nose-grinding the walls looking for false walls, unmarked secret doors, and checking doors which open without looking open. May give up before you discover the way into one part of MAP01. Play in god mode, or savegame after every kill, for the first two rooms. Best play is probably difficulty 2, because of waves of monsters.

      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.
