About This File

A rather large level with lotsa everything. It is my first wad but don't be fooled. I have put many long hours into it. So much so that I decided that I would upload it now in fear that it would never be released. Don't get me wrong. I know of NO ERRORS or any sort. Anyway, you have three of keys/doors present each is different. One level is an exact duplicate of a level from Under World II. The others your have have to find out for yourself. Almost every hidden door/etc. has been indicated by an odd colour something or other or an offset brick/whatever.

This is dated July 1996. You fight 324 baddies in a large, undetailed dungeon level that's entertaining simply because there's a lot of fighting. It's technically ropey, with an emphasis on unmarked secret walls in dark mazes, loads of ammo, and the whole Ultima Underworld section is superfluous to the map (you'll probably never see it). But there's a lot of fighting. Thankfully the sound replacement wad is a separate file, so you don't have to use it! Bonus.

This is a lot more fun than most first efforts I've played. The sound FX are also highly ingratiating, particularly if you've been a Python fan since boyhood.

      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.
