The Dead Soil

About This File

a small single player level for Doom2. You start in a castle surrounded by several armies of evil. With a shock you realize that there's no gate you could close to keep the hellish troops outside. Fortunately, your enemies are not very disciplined... >>> I modified this level for deathmatch play (DDSOIL- DM.WAD): there are no monsters, no health except for two soul spheres that are difficult to receive and more weapons than in the original level. However, you may deathmatch in DEADSOIL.WAD too; the starts are there.

The level has an interesting idea - it's a backwards castle map, in that you start inside the castle and have to beat off waves of monsters. The ground outside the castle is poisonous. The baddies tend to infight each other. It's a decent idea and the design has some clever touches, but the gameplay boils down to running around the inside of the central courtyard until the monsters have killed each other, and then finding some keys.

      Unloved

      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.

      The Darkening Episode 2
      By LouigiVerona · Posted
      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

      The Revenant Problem
      By Ranger Qwerty · Posted
      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.
