Nice and short classic-style wad. However, as a huge fan of Eternal's other wads, I was not particularly impressed. End Point contains solid map design but lacks the artistic ambition and memorability of the author's previous output. Feels like Epic 2's earlier maps but with more vanilla-style texturing and heavier reliance on ambushing monsters around corners. Still worth playing for pretty much anyone. 3/5

I'm having trouble deciding if this deserves 5* or mere 4*, but I'm gonna go for the more favorable option, even though there are some shortcomings. The events fall into some repetiteveness and traps become predictable - there's monster around every corner, and there's a corner everywhere. Each map has its own theme which is good. The boss fight devolves into circle-strafing. Apart from this, it's a fairly standard but very well made PWAD. Difficulty - moderate.

if there's one thing I know about Eternal, it's immaculate monster placement. doesn't matter what wad it is, but this is a mapper who will put monsters in corners you won't expect, even after several replays. for this wad, End Point, there's not much to go around to be honest, there's no immersive theme, just seven levels that take place on Earth pretty much. for that, it's certainly not on par with the greats that Eternal has ever made, but it doesn't mean that the wad itself sucks, as none of Eternal's maps ever reach that point. End Point is just nice, no real theme, no real nonsense, just seven decently made levels and that's that. his usage of secrets will be rough, and the railings particularly on MAP05 may be a bit problematic for rocket users, but it's still a worthwhile little adventure wad of sorts.

Very stylish texturing and color schemes. While playing this wad you might feel like you're becoming a well optimized machine, sneakily killing monsters hiding behind corners, looking for familiar traits of secret areas, hugging helpless PEs. Kind of an interesting feeling but also a sign that common tropes dominate over imagination in these maps. Map05 was my favorite (be careful with these railings though or you might accidentally kill yourself). Many nostalgic midis are used.

      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.
