Cheogsh 2

About This File

After the release of "Cheogsh", the ideas of what should be included in it have appeared; and the number of those ideas was so big – that the thought of making Cheogsh 2 have appeared by itself. But initial concept of the wad, around which this wad was meant to be built, hasn’t justified itself – this has predetermined long and uneasy destiny of all project. As a result, Cheogsh 2 came out not so epic, as it was meant to be initially. But we hope despite that, this wad did not become less interesting. Thanks all who helped us while we were working on it.

To play Cheogsh 2, type the following command in Start-Run: gzdoom.exe -file cheogsh2.pk3

You also can regulate speed of messages in dialogues - T button by default. Volcanoes effects can be turned on/off by pressing U button. Also, an alternative HUD is recommended to be used. Have a good game!

I enjoyed this for the most part, although some things did try their best to sour it for me. The atmosphere and level design is great, but some of the required backtracking was handled a little clumsily. I see the hub thing that you were going for. It's a neat idea.

The rebuilt city was nifty, even if the sewers felt far to repetitive.

 

The ending part with the elevator shaft really stuck in  my craw. I very nearly lost my temper to that spiral.

Overall though, this is one I'm glad I played.

This is a very ambitious project that I don't want to bash too hard because it looked beautiful (mostly). The problem is that there really wasn't a chance to get used to the difficulty and by the time I found I was playing on too hard of a setting, it was way too late to start over. I also encountered a glitch following the end of level one that completely froze the game several times. It was definitely a great effort, but the game is a little rough around the edges.

Excellent visuals, extremely moody. Highly flawed tho: little to no guidance, so expect some aimless backtracking; "stealth" section in the mines is an frustrating exercise in trial & error; some annoying new enemies.

This is an excellent WAD, well deserving of it's Cacoward. Although you can get lost pretty easily, the visuals and difficult encounters manage to keep you hooked.

wow. This Wad is Amazing. But very hard) So,Map03 is very big. I think it is not good. I hate SwitchHunting. But all in this wad impressed me! Shadowman, your work is Beutifull and I think this wad can climb the Golden Olympus genius wads! -Dragon

Shadowman, Guest, this is the greatest work by you. Most impressive, balanced, atmospheric, playable. Just pure genius. I decided to play it with full volume on dolby surround in a dark room with a candle lit. And I was absolutely shocked by the atmosphere and deepness of this wad. It was probably even the first time I felt I'm playing just a unique, different game based on gzdoom. It's not Doom, it's something unique. 5/5

All I can say is wow. I love the Unreal-esque idea of using coloured point lights everywhere, and it really works in what is one of the best wads ever for atmosphere. Nice use of the GZDoom stuff, if a bit choppy at times. Gameplay wasn't bad...decent spread of new mobs, nice weapon balance, and the friendly cacos were a neat touch. The long switch (and door-in-dark-room) hunts do fail a bit though. But don't worry about the classic fanboys, this is a top-notch wad that were never going to like anyway.

Awesome. I've almost finished exploring the entire map after two years of starts and restarts. I've yet to finish legally since I have lots of trouble with the double trigger lines that you have to go forward or back really fast over while going forward or backwards. Thank you shadowman for this map. I will succeed! Barbara

This is the best wad I've ever played. It's very atmospheric and immersive, with excellent level design and music.

^Actually, quite the contrary. He just didn't put enough effort into gameplay. It still gets 3/5 as everything else obviously represents hard work to me.

4 stars from me, originally I was going to go 3 but I'll recognize the serious effort that went into it. What I cannot bloody stand though is how hard it is to know where you should go, switch hunting and key hunting is terrible and nobody likes it. That aside, when you are not fucking around this WAD can actually get really fun in it's combat.

Although this style of gameplay is really not for me... there's some good stuff here if one dedicates a good few days to play through. 4.21/5.

Cheogsh 2 and Hell Ground are the best in this year.

Aside from needing better gameplay, this wad would be better if there were quake monsters to take away the realm-667 taste. The architecture and amount of detail is very high... but also a few of the switch hunts in terms of difficulty.

      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.
