Disgruntled Former Employee (v.5)

About This File

One awful day, the misguided management at your high-paying UAC desk job decides it would be a good idea to replace all the SGI Unix workstations with Apple Macs. You refuse to cooperate and soon your manager informs you that your services will no longer be required at UAC.

Like any red-blooded American, after weeks or months of brooding on this indignity, you determine that your only recourse is to grab your gun and as much ammo as you can carry, stroll into your former workplace and TAKE OUT AS MANY OF THEM AS YOU CAN before they get you.

You phone your buddy up to warn him. "Better take the day off Monday in case something terrible happens." "Huh, what do you mean? What could happen?" "Just take the day off, do it!"

The day arrives. Getting an elevator to yourself, you pull out your trusty Glock on the way up. Funny, there didn't seem to be the usual number of people coming and going in the lobby. And what about all those black vans parked outside and all the black helicopters buzzing around. Could your buddy have squealed? Nah...

The elevator door opens. AGGHH!! The building is crawling with Federal Law Enforcement agents, the same Gestapo-like goons responsible for the death of Vicky Weaver and the Waco massacre! The elevators are locked! Barricades have fallen into place in the stairways! The building is surrounded by machine gun nests! The heavily armed Feds have plastered Clinton posters everywhere! Can you show the thugs of the Federal Gestapo that an armed and desperate psycho is not so easy to kill as all those peaceful, law-abiding civilians including women and children? Can you blast a path to freedom?

Decent trip back into the 90s. Aside from the mass sound spam that I put up with it's a decent 90s wad. However with the large amount of sound files that play all the time it got to be an ear ache... Ah.. history lesson! 3/5

Great wad, made me piss my pants laughing. Kudos for the idea of blowing up Macs. I hate those pieces of trash. 5/5

Erm. It's very nostalgic, because it's filled with samples of Bill Clinton etc and wall textures with Janet Reno and other things that were in the news in North America in 1995. Means very little in Britain in 2006 though. This kind of thing was probably dealt a death blow by the Oklahoma bombing. The readme mentions SGI, which further dates it in the dim and distant past.

This man had to be a little insane. You don't just go this fucking batshit over the WACO incident.

Nostalgic, but with modern ports and almost unlimited audio channels, it doesn't take long to turn into a cacophony of voices. 2/5 -Maes ^^^^ They got the Mac part just about right though ;-)

      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.
