No Rest No Peace Part 2: Insomnia

About This File

After many years of fighting against the troops of hell you finally retire from the war business. You quit the service, rent a beautiful apartment in a quiet town and look forward to watching TV, cooking and lazing. But you can find no peace. Night after night terrible dreams haunt your sleep. In those nightmares you have to re-live again and again the merciless battles of your blood-soaked past. This night it's different. As usual, you awoke from a bad dream at dead of night. You lie in your bed and listen. Every- thing's quiet. The world's asleep. You don't feel comfortable. Deep inside you know that some- thing's really wrong. But what is it? You switch on the lights and get out of bed...

Dunno, mixed feelings. Fights typically involve shooting non-threatening hordes in flat areas and most locations look boxy and a bit boring. On the other hand, the realistic approach to design gives the whole thing a cinematographic feel. The atmospheric start with no monsters is especially good in that aspect. I used Doom Builder for the red key, just didn't notice that a switch appeared in my bathroom. Interesting that the level ends on a religious note.

This is the sequel to id=9657, which I disliked. This is much better. It's large and detailed, with 343 monsters. It fails the toilet test quickly - did the author secretly want to be a furniture designer? - but there's enough action to keep me amused. Actually, I warmed to it as I continued to play, it's big and epic in places, with a nice two-part design (hotel and techbase). The large monster count devolves into unsubtle hordes but overall this gets a thumbs up.

The beginning area looks really nice, but as the level progresses, the level design starts getting a bit dull. It still plays fairly decently though. 3/5

      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.
