About This File

This is a remake of a map that I had originally created sometime in 99-02. Back then this used to be one of my favourite maps, and a while ago I found myself wanting to play it again. However I had lost the map in a HD crash a while ago, so I had to remake it based on what I remembered of the map. The detail level is mostly low since the original map was very low in detail as well and the map themes are all over the place.

There are three different "game modes": HMP is mostly similar to the original map I had made, UV is a HR version of the original and ITYTD/HNTR item placement is in HR style done by Maes before he was shown the original item placement. So this is essentially a "three-in-one" experience.

Okay I beat this without dying once. The only hard part is that the author makes it so picking the wrong room leaves you ammo depleted and you die. Luckily I never had that happen but I was close to it. Level design is shit. Overall okay, nothing special.

Eh... can't say I care for the lack of detail and the architecture/texturi ng too much, to be honest. Gameplay was OK (on UV), but I really missed an SSG and maybe a plasma gun.

Pretty intense on each difficulty level, and surprisingly different enough to make it worth playing thrice if you don't mind the plain layout and poor detail. To the above reviewer, there's an SSG on both HMP and UV close to the beginning, on the "ledge" with all the shotgunners. Take an elevator in the gray room to get there.

      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.
