About This File

Putting here all the unofficial maps I've made so far(they were either made randomly and accidently, some were made for a show off, some were rejected, some are just birthday maps and so. STORY:The arch-vile responsible of the four sins is teleporting you quite a while, show him that you're too tough to get in a fight with.

A standard Joe-Ilya WAD, which is to say, terrible. The usual suspects make their return: terrible texturing, uninteresting and rectangular layouts with some really unusual geometry here and there, really BAD monster placement. Are these MaxiDoom maps? Joe please. SLOW DOWN. Learn to properly map, stop joining literally every community project, take your time on a map instead of shtting out a map every hour.

Normally I would give a wad like this at least 1 star (or maybe 2 if I like some ideas). But not today. joe-ilya keeps producing ugly shit and I don't see it getting any better. I understand that some maps are 2 years old but go and try to figure out which of them are newer ones. I can make a wad like this in a week (or day if I will get enough meth). Try making something different ffs.

Ugly as sin maps that feel and (mostly) play like something from those mid-90s compilation CDs. I could forgive much if this was presented as say results of some speedmaping sessions, since maps have that level of polish.

Joe-ilya apparently can't make any good aesthetics. Though I can see that he tries, he still pretends that alignment, seams, material consistency and colour harmony don't exist and never did. But when I look away from aesthetics, the maps are not that bad at all. They offer a good, moderately difficult gameplay, often with unconventional ideas (some are "meh", some are better). The whole set provides enough of this kind of fun. For me, the imperfections don't drag the quality lower than to 3/5 stars.

The visuals are as obnoxious as usual, the gameplay can be ok at time, especially in the earlier maps where placing weaker monsters is a lot more forgiving than the heavyweights. The lengthy maps can be a real drag though. A sightly below par 2/5

Absolutely no thought went into this, just random sectors filled with monsters that plays awful and looks fucking terrible. No wonder they were rejected.

"Some were rejected", Well it is easy to understand why they were rejected as they just seem to be a hopeless blend of spastic sectors and horrendous monster placement, the overall design is pretty much in the style of shrapnel (Multiple chunks of unidentifiable shit all over the place) and the maps play like being stabbed by a blunt crayon in a nursery. Avoid this shit if you value your sanity.

I thought they were playable. Nothing good, but nothing horribly awful or 0 star worthy.

Ilya paints with a broad brush and the things he paints won't be to everyone's liking: not technically good by the standards of the ateliers, yet imbued with the authentic voice of the artist. It's easy to see why, like the first performance's of Brahms's piano concerto no.1, this megawad was not received with enthusiasm. I foresee Ilya cutting his ear like Van Gogh, or perhaps, like Raskolnikov, murdering a pawn-broker before being redeemed by a moral woman. Anyhow I enjoyed it so far (map 4).

Basically what josh said. MAP01 had some pretty stupid shit in it, but through to MAP03 it was just about bearable. I lost my patience after that. By the way, the choice of MIDI in this is just so bad.

Maps very look like test vehicles for experimenting with technical constructs, scenes, styles, decoration and so. Which is as-is very good, but while presenting them as levels, author has forgotten to throw away the failed attempts. This might explain their ugliness and why none of the maps has even a tiny little bit of gameplay. As such, not interesting for a player, so 0/5. @ cs99cjb 2 above: nofi, but justifying the quality of these maps via referring to Brahms being not understood, is absurd.

      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.
