About This File

A large map for Doom 1 with lots of secondary corridors and canyons (but otherwise mostly linear gameplay) and tons of bad guys. The Doomworld thread for this wad can be found here: http://www.doomworld.com/vb/wads-mods/41648-big-map-for-doom-1-nice-shadow-effects-thorough-demo/

I've rarely played such a boring map... sorry. I gave up after 20 minutes because I just didn't want to waste any more of my life on it.

After reading the Doomworld review, I expected this wad to be horrible. An acuality, I found it to not really be so bad. No, the wad does not require Gzdoom, but it is understandable why he would want it to be played that way: He had used gradiant lighting in several places, in addition to light sources in a way that would look neat in Gzdoom's opengl mode. Gameplay wasn't terrible, but it does get repetetive after a while. The midi wasn't so bad either.

This wasn't that bad, really, but I didn't really enjoy it either. It utilized gradient lighting, but beyond that it was aesthetically quite boring. This complemented the gameplay well, as the map itself became really repetitive after a while. Sorry, but I'll have to give this 2 stars for just not being very much fun.

Playing this wad is like eating an entire full-sized grocery-store pizza by yourself. The food's not bad, but it's not that good either, and there's so much of it that you feel sick and bloated after eating it. It is so huge that is has 19,000 linedefs and hardly any detail, and 1,600 monsters and hardly any challenge. The 1994-like architecture and gameplay would have been OK for five minutes, but this lasts an hour. 2/5 --Woolie

The author's first map. This level is huge and with over 19,000 linedefs its one of the largest I've ever played. It only runs in Zdoom, since its past the sidedef limit. Its a 1994 style map with fairly good gameplay. There are a few problems such as unescapable lava pits (so save often), doortraks not lower unpegged, a bit of bland texturing and a few BSP problems. The sky was ugly. 25 secrets. I'm giving it 4/5, the level is fun to play and is a real adventure. -PC

E1M1. This is essentially an enormous, Wagnerian tribute to all those old 1994/1995 levels. It's big, but not "Spire" big, and has over 1,600 monsters. The map looks, feels, plays, and essentially *is* a decent 1994/95 megawad smushed into a single level, which is both a blessing and a curse. On the one hand it's very nostalgic, but at the same time it drags on and on, like playing a 1994 megawad in a single sitting.

This is too big, buddy. God invented levels for a reason. A really solid effort though, with lots of great gameplay to boot.

My review for the old version stands. This is essentially an enormous, Wagnerian tribute to all those old 1994/1995 levels. It's big, but not "Spire" big, and has 1,669 monsters. The map looks, feels, plays, and essentially *is* a decent 1994/95 megawad smushed into a single level, which is both a blessing and a curse. On the one hand it's very nostalgic, but at the same time it drags on and on, like playing a 1994 megawad in a single sitting.

Ok, is a huge, epic, HR-style wad, and this was a good and rigth thing. The bad thing is graphic work and some music hears horrible, like intro and intermission theme. But, wath the heck, is a great map indeed. Keep this way, dude! -3.9/5 Daimon

      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.
