About This File

Almost named this one "EYEBURN" ... you'll under- stand when you get involved with the first part of this baby. It's big and keeps coming at you with hordes of evil. Don't despair, little soldier, there is an exit.

COOP is a fraggin' blast with this one, but single players better be ready to hose themselves off. No mercy is the plan here.

This is from October 1998. It looks horrible, like something from 1995, but it plays well because there are lots of monsters, and the gameplay is clever; whilst you spend time exploring an underground area, some archviles resurrect most of the baddies you killed earlier. It's marred by the fact that you have to wait for some very slow lifts, and also you get so much plasma ammo that it's easy (although time-consuming, 'cause you have to kill everything twice).

A good implementation of an interesting idea -- you get the upper hand in a sealed-off area with a lot of monsters, then you start getting hit with another counterattack force featuring an archvile every five minutes or so (at least). I wonder what bad guy has the record for being the one I killed the most times.

Garish colors; no level design to speak of, much less architecture; gameplay is... meh. To say that ammo is overabundant would be an understatement.

      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.
