About This File

32 Extremely detailed maps, made for DeathMatch play ONLY! Several artists reached within their hearts to make this a reality. DOOM2 just NEVER looked this good...

Visually amazing and not just for walking alone. Magnificent midis by D. Shaw and M. Klem.

This is one of my all-time favorites, but it's kind of a shame that it overshadows both the AmberX and FetalDM series by Adelusion and Mattrim - They were pretty much "gothicDM before gothicDM", but in a good way. Check em out.

He's obviously a retard because he knows just as well as I do that this isn't really a great DM wad at all. I will give it credit for some nice texturing and being better than the other gothicDMs, but that doesn't keep it from remaining mediocre. 3 stars -Ralphis

By far the best Deathmatch WAD around. When I think of DM Doom I think of this Megawad (and dwango5, but this one first). The visuals are amazing! Some of the best textures made for Doom! The levels are also wonderfully designed. Each level is a killer and can be played for hours at a time.

ugh. The levels look good, but they have too much detail in quite a few places, and some of they levels are not very playable.

Pure and utter crap. A pathetic start to an even worse series. Anybody who has a decent taste in Deathmatch levels are smart enough to keep away from this crap. -deathz0r

The hate on the Gothic Deathmatch series is to be ignored. Made in 1995, the original is perhaps among the most famous WADs ever made, for damn good reason. Most people claim it's no fun for DM, only good for SP for looking around. Well, just shove their heads down a Cacodemon's mouth the next time you see them. Filthy liars.

Certainly not the best, but I would definitely not say they are "pure and utter crap". Cramped in some spots, but the visuals compensate for it. 4/5

Okay, this level sucks on death match, there is no good battle areas. But it looks amazing. Download only to see what can be done with Doom when it comes to good looks.

It's become cool to hate on GothicDM and all that followed it, which is a shame. I never saw playability as the point of these maps, it's pleasure enough just to walk around them in single player mode. The later WADs (gothic99) well and truly jumped the shark, but this is the first it's a definite classic, and hugely influential. GothicDM came out around the same time as Requiem and has some obvious overlap in contributors and style. Overall it's a beautiful blend of architecture, texturing and music.

Some of the coolest DM maps ever created. Far more aesthetic and much slicker than GothicDM 2 and Gothic '99, both of which (especially the latter) tried too hard to cram a gazillion sectors into each map instead of focusing on good looks, yes, but most importantly - quick fun gameplay. Not only that; this came out at a time where *nothing* of its kind had been seen. Adelusion is an underrated SP and DM mapmaker. --5/5

The best wad in the world.This PWAD is the best for Duels, too much strategy on this maps.Recomended if you want hot duels with much strategy.

Deathz0r and people like deathz0r... keep in mind that GothicDM wasn't made for games over 4 players. This was back in 1997, where an advanced source port barely existed. While this map pack may be too small for 8 players, it's perfect for 1v1 or 4 player FFA. It's visually stunning, the music is beautiful, and it has great gameplay (unlike GothicDM2 and Gothic99, those are sh*t!). 5/5 -Nestea

      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.
