Extremely mediocre techbase/subway level with too many long featureless corridors. Rooms are generally blocky, but avoid being totally empty. There are interconnections between areas, but the level is too sprawling for it's low level monster population and is very low-burning. It's very overstocked, with 2 soulspheres, all 7 weapons and nothing tougher than 2 barons. But being easy doesn't mean a level can't be fun, but a tighter, punchier layout would be needed than this. Overall this is meh, even for 96

Even a poorly skilled player like me found it very easy. But for a first effort 20 years it was not bad at all.

This is dated November 1995. It's an unexceptional underground-type level with a subway and some watery caves. You fight 111 weak baddies, but you have enough health and ammo to kill the whole world and then revive it again. There are some ladies in lingerie as well. Has an odd bug in one spot where, playing with GZDoom, I ran outside the level boundary and found myself trapped in ghost world. Despite this the design is generally sound but unmemorable.

      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.
