About This File

This was designed to be a difficult map. I got my inspiration for this map from maps 23-25 of Scythe2, the last episode of Scythe, The last 4 maps of AV, map14 from CC1, map32 from CC2, and map25 from CC3. I know it's a long list, but all influenced at least some aspect of the map.

yeah I gotta admit, this one's pretty good too. apparently it's not a speedmap, but it damn sure got inspired by a lot of hard levels we all know and love. if it attempted only to do that and make a hard level that has similar aspects to those many maps, it succeeded, even though the level itself isn't gonna be as memorable, it is still a fun, tough challenge map. hone your skills with this map.

Grime looks like a more hellish version of Scythe 2's map 25 mainly because it uses an altered and darker version of the music "Intolerance" from Seiken Desentsu 3 and it was heavily inspired from Scythe 2 Map 23-25 . I actually found Grime way easier than Erik Alm's map . The health and ammo were indeed quite plentyful and above all Grime doesn't have those annoying and overpowered space marines. Inversely , Grime has more high-tier monsters but you can make them easily infight.

 

It doesn't figure among my favourite maps from Death-destiny but that remix of "Intolerance" is fucking awesome. :)

A masterclass in entertaining encounters and engaging, challenging gameplay. Item and monster placement is borderline perfect.

 

Less experienced players should take advantage of the well-implemented difficulty settings - don't miss out through being stubborn if UV is too difficult for you!

Pretty darn good indeed, but I think there's a lack of ammo, this kind of gameplay and having to be careful on ammo doesn't fit together.

A really strong level. Challenging gameplay, balanced ammo and monsters, excellent progression through the map. A classic deserving of 5 stars. -TRRobin.

This is the hardest map I have played through yet! I spent around 2 hours playing, and by the end I only had about 25 minutes of actual game time. Yup, I died a lot. Great looking map and the music was nice as well. 5/5

"Legendary" in every sense of the word. Amazing map with well-implemented skill levels to appeal to a very wide range of Doom players. Incredibly well thought-out fights with a surprising amount of variety in the action despite the reliance on a few familiar monsters - geometry and layout here are brilliant. Despite the texture alignment (or lack thereof), the level also looks excellent, with a striking color scheme and amazing architecture. One of the best.

Even for a seasoned doomer, this will put some serious hair on your balls/ovaries. It's not a map with 2000+ enemies that come at you like russian conscripts with peashooters, its a map with ball-busting traps, flanks, fucks, and archvilefucks. Lots of archvilefucks. Prepare for death within a few seconds if you're using a mod with reloading(unless there's stupidly op weapons). That said, this map deserves every star it gets --- 5/5 Bukkake Windmill

I am more of a casual player (read: I suck), so I will not judge the game play, though it was fun with god mode on :P. Anyway, it is a beautiful level, both architecturally as in texturing. I would really love to see some demos though, especially pacifist or Tyson. 5/5

Very nice map, but very difficult. The easier skill levels plays exceptionally good though.

Easily a 5* map. HMP was perfect for me.

I like it. I like the jungle/hell theme and how the design stick together. Maybe I suck but some fights in cramped areas were quite unfair for me and Arch-villes make it even worse. :) But overall this deserves attention. 4/5 - Damned

This is dated June 2008. It's one of those ultra-hard levels in the style of Hell Revealed, whereby you save the game, fight a bit, die, reload, fight a bit more, etc. On UV I got tired of it quickly; I chickened out and played it on HMP and it was great fun. The design is classic hell-themed, surprisingly small but every step has a trap; you can cheat the final battle a bit by dropping back into the lava and waiting for the baddies to infight.

      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.
