About This File

Scene The site of A fusion reactor. Situation: CRITIAL; An infultration team entered the reactor a day ago to check on reports of missing personel and strange happenings with the equipment. A half-hour ago, all the power went out in the nearby colony. You've just been ordered to go in, along with your partner, and investigate.

Upon entering, you and your partner immediately find yourselves under a rain of heavy gunfire. You managed to dive outta the way, unfortunately you can't say the same for your partner, you look up just in time to see him look at you for help, hand reached out toward you. *KA-BOOM* Your partner's body falls to the ground lifelessly.

Rage fills every part of your being as you look up at the enemy, and then total horror hits you. Your partner was just gunned down by one of the members of the infultration team! NO TIME TO THINK!! *KA-BOOM* The shot rips through your shoulder.... You unload three shots into the person standing before you.

As you examine the body of the man you just killed, you are horrified when you notice the condition of the body. "Three bullets couldn't have done this much damage?!" Well, no matter, you know what you were sent to do, and you know you can't trust anyone else you meet here.....

This is an updated version of id=887. The disclaimer in the TXT is ironic if you consider how much better Scott F. Crank's REACTOR2 is (currently only the D2 conversion is in the archive as id=2659). Unlike that WAD, this is just a small cramped mess of misaligned STARTAN3, with a few lifts, unmarked critical doors and a deathtrap pit. Good thing the author didn't forget the exit.

      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.
