About This File

This is a Complete Episode replacing "Knee Deep in the Dead".

This is a 'NO CHEATS NEEDED' WAD with alot of work put into the way it looks (and of course plays). There are many lighting effects, staircases, ledges, lifts, etc. There are no Cyberdemons, or Masterminds, so just have fun. It still is by no means the easiest thing in the world, but there are selectable skill levels (I SUGGEST 'HURT ME PLENTY' for most of you).

There is new music for two of the levels (E1M1 and E1M8), a secret level, new menu and tally screen graphics, a COMPLETELY NEW CLOUDY SKY, one new wall texture (a railing), and a few textures brought in from Doom2.

Very solid E1 replacement, love that cloudy sky and the new music gives a great introduction to the episode.

Superb stuff, but not for beginners - not because of difficult opposition, but fairly complex layouts and problem solving. But fantastic wad overall.

Not bad at all.

I was actually quite surprised by the detail in this episode. I'd say this author is the master at creating good looking stairs. However, as others have said, this episode is let down by the lack of good action. I also have to mention that the secrets are too hard to find. The author put secret doors on random walls that don't stand out, so you would never know they were there unless you click on everything in sight. Secrets always need some kind of hint!

Nice '96 episode. It's very easy, but worth playing. The level designs feel like a cross between TEUTIC.WAD and Dr. Sleep's style. It could've used more texture variation, though. 4/5

An excellent epsiode replacement. Great layouts, though a bit too brown, and some great fights.

Nothing really wrong with it but nothing great either. None of the fights makes me feel like a superstar. Some stuff is well thought out. I propose that this wad have more action! 2 Stars. --- Starburst.

      Unloved

      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.

      The Darkening Episode 2
      By LouigiVerona · Posted
      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.
