About This File

Well, remember dark caliber project that was hyped by Ellmo (Hello there leader faggot), you know, we worked on this decently and there was map02 done by ellmo, BUT NO, he said he will start programming and that i should remove his map under request, why!? so yeah, project was pretty much crumbled. I decided to tune up and finish all of the maps i created for this wad, about 3 maps which differ in difficulty (Map01 - easy, Map02 - Normal, Map03 - Hard). I'm sure you will enjoy it but be aware that playing map03 on UV may piss you off and cause a trauma or depression, play at your own risk on UV ;) happy holidays doom masters

too cramped. yes, it is. Try to make maps with more varied space. 3/5

Well, that's certainly an interesting description about the backstory behind the design of this wad. More interesting, in fact, than the wad itself. Blech.

Ignoring the drama in the text file, this project is at best alright. 1st map is a nice small map, which plays well but has too many arrows and suffers from a minor fault or two. 2nd map is a mid/large map which is alright until the mass monster bit at the end, which has too little health and too much ammo. 3rd map is crap. A hitscan slaughter, with no health, cyberdemons in tight places and a very boring look, plus texture errors everywhere. So 3* for 1 good map, 1 alright map and shitheap. -Phobus

I was very impressed by these maps, but some of the mass monster areas were tedious. I died in the last map when there were 13 monsters left :P Happy New Year!

Hell yes, author has a big potential to become a quality mapper like Tormentor, Mechadon or Vader with one exception, he would be specialized in gameplay unlike all those fools i mentioned! this wad kicks ass, i enjoyed it playing through, even the shitfest map03 on UV, that wad is F` A. Alter, you are the FUTURE of mappers, not like those zdoom feature abusing newb screwbags like Moti and others. Good luck man, you deserve it! 5/5 - Good old pal from DRDteam forums and our first megawad, jflkbob

Three maps dated yesterday. Map01 is an intricate, compact dungeon level, a fun introduction (though I'm not sure about all the arrows; there must have been a better way). Map02 is bigger, just as intricate, with an interesting look, but dull and switch-hunty. It must have taken forever to put in all those armour and health bonuses. Map03 is a large city-style map, one of those thousand-monster opuses where you feel numb and a bit sick at the end.

These maps are fine, I think they are nicely detailed and have a good gameplay. This wad is good for single player or 2 players maximum, but playing it with more then 2 people is like impossible :p. But still I give it 4/5 - nice one. Xaver

Despite the dicksucking done by whoever on DRDFroums this set is pretty average, cramped, ok looking I suppose, but tedious in a lot of places. Also, Ellmo may have pissed you off but discrediting him in your txt file makes you look petty and immature...oh right, a teenager, so petty and immature are the order of the day. 3 stars.

Not perfect, and being rather switch-hunty it might annoy some, but I enjoyed this. Good difficulty first 2 maps (though end of Map02 is a bit ridiculous), then Map03 is slaughter-based and has even more ammo than necessary, though health isn't ridiculously plentiful. So overall the author's attitude obviously sucks, but these are decent maps. I'd probably give it a 4, but I'll give 5 to move the average closer.

The last map is actually pretty easy if you know what you are doing... and use the plasma rifle. 5/5

The wad is detailed, and the gameplay is alright, but it is way cramped. The author's attitude however, is what makes the cake for this wad. If your partner had other things he wanted to do, and respectfully asked you to withdraw your map, don't throw a hissy fit about it. Seriously, grow the fuck up kid. Just for that, you lost the 4 stars the map could have earned. 0/5

      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

      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.
