About This File

Walk-through (too young to die) of replica of real place design by famous architect. If you don't know the place, you rather shoot some sergants (hurt me plenty) or some cacode- mons (ultra-violence) !!!!

Got this wad while browsing randomly a Doom shovelware cd i own at home.

Conceptually is a lovely map based a brutalist style architecture and simple, open layout, gameplay is pretty easy and messy, just a bunch of monsters small groups (like a group of shotgunners surrounding the building, lost souls in close rooms). Bleeding sectors and a exit hidden in a dark border area it's the cherry pie to all.

This is an oversized recreation of Ludwig Mies van der Rohe's Barcelona Pavilion, which was built back in 1929. It had a simple, polygonal design that suits Doom fine. The problem is that it's crap to play in; there are 59 monsters, exclusively lost souls and cacodemons, but it only takes twenty seconds to run to the exit. One star for the esoteric subject matter (what next, Fallingwater?), minus several million for the rubbish gameplay.

Seems OK for deathmatch, but some textures that block movement are at the ceiling rather than floor which means abrupt halts when you dont expect it.

      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.
