DOOM 1.666 WADS The Gateway ; The Pedestal ; The Great DOOM

Another abstract looking map like my previous reviewed cyberpit map, but the only true abstract place is DAVE1, a almost 25 minutes techbase-style map, with many sessions in the abstract realm, like toxic skies and weird medieval mazes hidden, a basic gameplay progression and lots of ammo. DAVE2 is a square tech station with nothing really interesting, DAVE3 is another techbase map, another long map like DAVE1 but the layout reminds more of some sort of "Dungeon and Dragons" place, but with a technological feel in it. The map over the above mentioned (funny) review the Doom E2M3 graffiti at the start (why?), at the same way there's cardinal pints signs and another stuff like... 4K? What does this even mean? Is that section of the map (after the red key door, also looks like a  my... hotel? house? anyway, a wooden apartments structure... in a space station. Ok.) ultra-HD? No, really, what does this even mean? Ah, yes, the level itself is not that incredible, expect than a missing lower sidefefs at the textures on the northern section in the map where the vine walls texture are in the middle of the said section, making a deep linoleum water effect where the monster "swim" in it. Wow.

Overall pretty average and not even that fun. Skiiip!

These levels are from October 1994. I got sick of E2M1 quickly, it's a typical badly-made 1994 map, mazey and painful to look at. E2M2 starts off just like Doom II's "The Pit", which is the only interesting thing about it. The very first room of E2M3 (a polygonal cavern, drawn freehand, with "DOOM E2M3" written on the floor) made me lose the will to live. And now I'm dead, reduced to writing about Doom levels from the afterlife. Damn you.

5 stars for the above review!
