Replaces DOOM2 maps 01-12 Map01: A small sea-side town, with a few buildings a large beach, a dock, a sewer, some ships. and plenty of monsters. Map02: Based on Laser Quest in Reading, includes a recption area, an airlock, the control room, most importantly the maze! Good with multiplayers loads of monsters again! Map03: A prisoner of war camp, with watch towers, guards, mess hall etc. Map04: A laboratory thats gone wrong, with a nasty acid pit to shoot your friends into, a reactor thats going to melt down and loads of nasty tricks and puzzles. Map05: The unholy church: the preacher reigns fire down upon you. and the congregation aren'nt to happy to see you either!. Map06: Fight your way through an infested starport, run along the luggage conveyor, shoot monsters out of the control tower from below. loads of vantage points, loads of monsters. excellent on multiplayer. Map07: Grab the gun infront of you, turn round and blow away your mate whose misfortune it was to not grab the gun in time. Brings back the feel of the western 'draw' Map08: The back streets. run arround the seedy hotel and monster ridden shopping mall stalking your mates Map09: The toxins in the toxin refinary have made the monsters multiply, excellent on deathmatch. Map10: Another multiplayer shoot-out. shoot at each other across the buildings. Map11: Pit your wits against the likes of spider and cyberdemons in the biggest monsterfest you have seen. Map12: Have a deathmatch in the confusing corridors of an old mine, It's Indiana Jones-tastic mate!

Maybe I'm not on the mood, maybe it's too hard to me, maybe I don't know.

 

I won't say this is crap because this isn't at all, map aren't that ugly considering this is from 98, plus the layout is easy, but... Well, I just want to talk about the gameplay : there is an obvious lack of armor for me, especially when you have to fight hitscanners. I ran into MAP03, died not even because of the archvile or the cyberdemon, but because of shotgunners ; then I stopped because of the frustration. :/

 

3/5 (and not less nor more because I did not played the rest) because if only there were armor, the maps would be nicely playable to me and would deserve a good 4/5.

A charming, late 90's map full of Doomcute and the like. More of a novelty; If you're looking for engaging gameplay, then you should probably look elsewhere. MAP01 has an inexplicable Romero head, and other non-sequiturs are present in these maps. That said, the charm this file exudes is too great for me to resist.

The 'Novelties' included in the .zip are what they say: novelties. To judge these analytically would rob them of the 'fun factor' which is present throughout.

 

Useful tip for Pistol-starters: In MAP02, you can get an early SSG if you just bump into the window multiple times, in a back-and-forth fashion.

 

This wad is full of fun and charm, although not focused on serious gameplay, and if you are a fan of those things, you should consider this wad.

Old episode that takes the realism angle. Unlike a lot of realistic-type levels though, this one has enough cheese and fun moments to pull it through. Novelty.wad is a bizarre collection of mini-challenges, some of which don't have an exit.

I like this one, some good ideas here. Bit too many powerups though, would've benefitted from using the multiplayer-only flag.

      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.
