About This File

This is the second of my WADs that I've published on the net. It's a deathmatch level meant for two or three players. There are enough starts for four, but things might get a bit claustrophobic. There are several main areas, all linked by corridors and lifts, and all the weapons are available. Each area has at least two ways to get in or out, so you won't get trapped too easily. There is no over-riding theme in the map, but there is quite a bit of scenery. Of course the best scenery is the bloody bodies of your dead opponents ...

Hehe, the "Bugs" bit above made me laugh. This is a good WAD for DM - Not too large, but suitable for LMS or a 4+ player deathmatch. The only flaws I see is that one or two halls are slightly cramped, and there are a few bits of scenery in the way (candles and hanging bodies) - Very typical for 1996, and not really a problem anyway. You'd kinda have to be an idiot to get snagged on them. 5/5 in '96, but only 3.5 these days.

      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.
