About This File

This is a level for Heretic. A group of Disciples of D'sparil are holding a ceremony to resurrect their fallen leader. In order to perform this ceremony they have taken control of a sacred elven church and killed its inhabitants. You must find the key, unlock its doors and put an end to their foul ceremonies. Of course, their monstrous minions are not going to let you just walk up and take the key, so you will have to deal with them first.

A pretty good level, though not totally remarkable. It can be deceivingly hard at some moments, so be careful.

Very good user-created wad, especially for its time. Works perfectly in ZDoom. Some rooms are just a bit too squarish and under-detailed, but no less detailed than the original Heretic was. Perfect amount of ammo and items to monster ratio. The exit and level progression isn't obvious, which is a plus. One problem is unmarked doors.

Extremely bugged. Kept crashing DOS heretic (which is what it was designed for) with MAXPLATS errors. I raised the limit to an obsence amount, but it still happened. However, the map look detailed, maybe it plays okay on a modern port. But, since it won't play on the original, what it was designed for, I can only give it 1 star for the layout.

      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.
