shit wad! hard levels, not cool new graphics (except the hud bar, looks good). i give this 1/5 for effort but it could have been 2/5 but i don't care. sorry for people who liked it. for me it's not good as other megawads.

A 5 is an absolute given for this one. What it lacks in atmosphere it certainly makes up with that "actioney" feeling through the maps. Besides, I really kinda doubt that Yonatan Donner designed these things with the atmospheric intent anyway. As I said, sure it's not strong in atmosphere, but it is cetainly fun-as-hell to play. 5/5 -Eisenfaust

By today's standards, HR is really not that difficult anymore. In my opinion, WADs like Alien Vendetta, Scythe 2, and its very own sequel HR2 managed to surpass this one in terms of toughness. The first 6 levels are quite easy even on HMP, and the whole WAD shouldn't be a problem for any experienced players on the easier difficulty settings. Although HR looks very aged now, it will always be a classic wad, since this is the one that "started it all" back in 1997.

Wow, they wern't joking when they said this wad is super tough. Map 13 is notable for looking very simple, but you'll spend almost an eternity fighting for your life as you grab each key. Also, there's a ball crushing archvile & revenant ambush right at the beginning that you don't want to run away from or else Archie will start respawing all those barons you killed. That was an awesome trap that makes for a spectacular teleport ambush. Highly recommended.

Just beautiful. I admired Levels 24 and on from afar for years before I was finally able to afford a modern computer and therefore play the whole thing without my processor choking on all the monsters or the savegame buffer crashing the whole thing.

For people who solely want to use it as a measure of how many CDs and AVs they can take down, not a problem. But for people who liked the original maps for their creepiness and tension, it's disappointing. Everything is bright, scares are done with numbers not atmosphere. If you die, you physically can't progress with just the pistol. Ok if you just want enemies and no fear, but bear in mind that although nothing succeeds like excess, boredom tends to set in pretty soon after that. 3/5 PS: Kill the music

A great megawad, I prefer this to HR2. Fun in vanilla settings, doesn't need any extra mods or whatever. In the words of Nathan Explosion, "It's good on it's own."

There is a difference between making something hard and making something infuriatingly annoying and repetetive. Using only the BFG and SSG just to get the many thousands of higher level monsters out of the way of very important 64 unit-wide corridors full of revenants is like a chore. In fact, this has recemented my hatred for revenants and their astronomically unfair homing missiles that can trace you miles into a winding cave. The undodgeable arch-vile turrets suck ass as well.

Aw. This wad has some cool levels, but there are much, much better wads out there. In each level, there are hundreds of monsters, and it's so difficult it makes the wad mediocre and boring to play. It's really TOO HARD. Maybe some other players might say i'm a wuss or a noob or something like that, but i don't care, it's my opinion. Get it only if you want a challenge. 3 stars cuz it has some good levels and cuz i don't to be too harsh. ~Rocky XIII, a French Doomer

Pretty great classic playing. THE wad that inspired it's own style of Doom Playing, anyone who sees an HR-style map is paying tribute to this wad. I managed to survive on UV to Map24 before I had to give up. I should try HR2 again sometime to see how far I can get on UV there before giving up too. Regardless, automatic 5 stars for being legendary.

The toughest megawad I have yet played. I found it harder than Alien Vendetta. But, don't let that discourage you from downloading and playing. This megawad is a right of passage for a true Doom player and it was mostly fun, but some of the levels were pure dick-hole. Dick tested, cock approved!

This wad essentially started the style of gameplay we now call "slaughter". The difference is, this is a lot more balanced than many slaughter wads of today; and retains the classic status it has achieved. The difficulty on UV is quite extreme, but when it is this fun, you will want to continue! This classic deserves the full 5 star treatment. -TRRobin.

Well, maybe the design or architecture of some maps is not up to some other stuff, but there are quite a number of good levels here (some of which include 11, 18, 24, 26, 14, 13, etc.), but the gameplay in number one which all it's difficulty, balance, and endless challenges! Like it!

Nice level design, can't floor it really. This wad is stuplidly hard (like Av.wav), in Coop you get tired of dying every 10 seconds. Must there be a Cyberdemon on every level?

How can this have only 4.5 stars? Absolutely perfect for a soon 8 year old megawad. ;) Great gameplay, good balance for skill levels, and all around a permanent favorite for me. Especially when co-oping :D 5/5 -DooMerPS

      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.
    • By MrSkeltal · Posted
      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.
