Cool new WAD that like its predecessors makes good use of custom monsters and powerups to enrich the gameplay but still very much feels like a classic Doom mapset.

Recommended to everyone who likes to grab their rifle and kick some ass!

Map07 is my favorite.

This WAD is sort of split in half. The first half, which consists of maps 01 - 05 is, well, nice. The maps look decent, the gameplay is full of action, the difficulty is moderate as you're constantly being provided with lots of health pickups. Despite this, the fights manage to be engaging. Tha latter half is different. The maps still look decent, but they become more and more straight forward. This is also visible in the first half, but the second consists of tunnel levels where you go forward and forward and pump rockets into enemies that arrive at you from 128 unit wide tunnels. And this drags on. These maps sport 900 enemies, each, but they are all threatless and die quickly. The last map, MAP10, is somewhat better, as it is set in a Doom2's MAP15-like city with loads of room to roam freely and allowing you to beat the map in the way you'd like it. It's still rather easy.

 

Not a bad WAD, but it has lots of filler and wears you out after a while.

      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.
