HEADLESS CROSS

About This File

"Look to the hill of the Headless Cross, where all witches meet, on a stormy night and the power of darkness is host They come face to face, eye to eye, soul to soul with and Angel that fell from the sky Listen the screams and the wails of the masses appointed to die Listen for the feet as they pound the land to a tune of thunder Watch as the legions ride again to a fate of death or torture At the Headless Cross From the first evil night, when a black flash of light cut the crucifix half to the ground There's been no escape from the power of Satan How do you feel, when the locks refuse the key And the Master of Evil is calling your name Does the talisman protect you from pain?"

The main shape of this Map was based on the HEADLESS CROSS album cover, from Black Sabbath.

You found a underground complex, cross shaped. Torches blaze along the walls. Sacred chants are being praised. Hands held to the sky direction. The ritual had begun. You're not supposed to be there !!!

Prepare yourself - Escape or Die !

This level is based on the design of a celtic cross. It is very dark and you end up fighting lots of shotgun people in darkness, which is horrible because they can see you perfectly. There's basically no enjoyment value in this level; after the large, open beginning there's a small maze, a lava area, and then a "fight" with a cyberdemon whereby you are invincible and he is trapped.

I have to say, I think the Sabbath inspiration behind this one was pretty cool.

      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.
