     | After playing this, I was kinda disappointed since this usually gets a lot of praise. Most levels are a lot linear and monster placement is really basic, where most enemies are just blocking your linear way. This slows down the flow a lot and making things quite boring. I quit after map 26, with these more slaughter levels where you just have to grind to progress. | x |

     | Good wad but not legendary. A lot of the maps tend to drag and there are multiple hallways filled with dozens of imps which are a slog to shoot through. Some of the later maps especially can take over an hour to complete and have annoying layouts with lots of backtracking. The visuals and detailing is very nice though and none of the maps run like crap, which is always a plus. 4/5 | x |

     | I understand this is old, but really most maps look awful, it's absolutely stupid when playing multiplayer. It's as is the author didn't know what he was doing at all, just putting a lot of monsters in there without any major thought. Is this supposed to be "oldschool? CAUSE IT'S REALLY NOT. Classic games had pacing, a curve of difficulty. Here you have cyberdemons at the beggining of a lot of levels. I don't know what's with this map everyone likes, I've seen older stuff that is much, much better. | x |

     | Ugh. The gameplay in this one is just awful. You can't make an assumption that anyone would be able to beat this stuff on the first try. Later maps are hideously red and hideously unplayable...
Best part for me was maps 3 and 4, both of which feature excellent (though a bit derivative) design and neat, ballanced gameplay.
Another problem is, literally all of the levels are a copy of something (plutonia, heretic, requiem, kneedeep, darkening) | x |

     | It's THE classic and still lots of fun after all these year. Never gets old for me. On the orher hand, there are maps I don't like much... For example MAP11 is awesome, but then MAP12, 13 and 14 are quite boring. MAP20 is masterpiece, but then... MAP 21 boring... MAP25 and 26 are awesome and then boring MAP27 and 28 follows... It's just my opinion.. Love this megawad tho. (enkeli33) | x |

     | One of the most legendary releases ever conceived, I consider AV to be, along with Darkening to some extent, more or less the defining megawad that marked the transition out of the old decade and into the new one. It is a step up from almost anything before it and has a lot of maps that still hold quite well. The only potential downers are the slaughtery gameplay and very large maps, but both are executed reasonably, enough that anyone not inherently bothered by this stuff will enjoy it. A 5* from me. | x |

     | You can tug your mum's titties if you gave this less than 5 stars; the original #1 megawad which still stands the test of time. Slaughtermap-ish only in severity of some fights, but with beautiful scenery, haunting maps and none of the crappy monster spam in modern slaughter maps. | x |

     | Mostly very good map layout, texture use and decoration. UV plays quite well up to level 6, then changes into slaughtermaps. Quite a few times with ridiculously many boss monsters, and mostly with maximized monster count. So most of the levels have gameplay which is quite challenging, but also extremely monotonous - and thus gets boring after a while. Which is IMHO a pity. So overall: solid 4/5, but no 5/5. | x |

     | This was an amazing megawad. There were a couple lame maps. Maps 20 (Misri Halek) 25 (Demonic Hordes), 26 (Dark Dome), and 27 (Stench of Evil) are extremely difficult!! Maps like 08 (Beast Island) 10 (Toxic Touch) 11 (Nemesis) and 18 (Lake Poison) are amazingly well created.
Enjoy this megawad masterpiece and try to take it all in, afterall, you only get to first play it once...

     | 20th level aka worst fuckin' level ever. Not enough ammo, very confusing layout (red caves), ultimately repetitive and annoying parts (hell knights+imps+revenan t in mountain cave stairs).

Not the best wad, but overall quality is 3 stars out of 5. | x |

     | Played this on brutal doom and gotta say i was slightly disappointed by this wad. Nothing really wrong, but the disappointment probably had more to do with all the hype about being better than HR. True, there are some HR-like moments, but they were pitifully few and far apart. Architecture and atmosphere are real nice, yes, but it's always gonna be a secondary aspect to gameplay.
So- Pretty good, don't get me wrong- but HR still reigns supreme! | x |

     | AV has a great start, but fizzles out as the levels progress. The first part was full of incredible atmosphere - such as the mountains and caves. However, the levels got less detailed, and became more of a BFG-Spamfest. Hordes of revenants and bosses are not my idea of fun. A few hordes are ok, but it got old fast. I prefer atmospheric, detailed levels that force you to conserve ammo and use the Shotgun & Chaingun more often. There should never be stockpiles of plasma like the entire second half of AV. | x |

     | I went into this megawad with high expectations because of people "over-hyping" it and claiming it's the best megawad ever; unfortunately for them, it's not. It's good, but like all megawads has its weak points. There are a lot of uninspired levels/areas with ugly texture combinations and sometimes the acid/lava hurts you and other times it doesn't which creates confusion between levels. However, there are some good maps too like my personal favorite MAP05. 3/5 Calm down people, it's not THAT great... | x |

     | There were great megawads released in the days before this - and many more in the days since - but, in my opinion, this is the pinnacle hallmark and staple of Doom excellence and one that may very well never truly be topped as a whole. Say what you want, for even the best levels ever released have their imperfections, no level will ever please everybody, and this is mp an exception, but it is the true magnum opus of Doom megawads. 10/5 | x |

     | While this is a pretty good WAD, I think it's a bit over-the-top at times. It mixes the ultra-challenging "kill over 1000 tough monsters on each level and survive if you can"-style gameplay of HR with the exhaustingly long and confusing levels of Eternal Doom - maps 11 and 20 took me FOREVER to complete! It's just a bit... too much for me. I recommend to download the old version of AV if you can find it somewhere - it's better than this final version (in my opinion)... | x |

     | Okay, it's a brilliant megawad. The one black mark against it is that beyond a certain point every level wants to kick your ass all the time, which is okay in a single level but in an multi-level WAD the occasional breather would be nice. It gets to the point where you start expecting the traps, which is usually a bad sign. But as a discrete set of 32 levels, this has genuine claims to being the best megawad of all time. - Ryback | x |

     | Im rather disappointed by the fact that its pretty buggy, I spotted 1 major bug in Map01, some minor bugs between Map02 to Map06 and 1 that made me unable to complete the stage in Map07. I stopped at Map07 and skipped to Map30, but again I doubt its even possible since one of the lift flew up before I can barely reach it. Well, despite the numerous bugs in these 8 maps alone, the map design is incredible, comparable to Scythe. Difficulty is ok for me, since I like those monster infested maps. | x |

     | Deserves its place as one of the all time greats. It can sometimes be HR-type difficult, which is not to everybody's taste, but you can lower the difficulty. The mapping and general layout completely blows HR 1 & 2 away though, and all the levels are of a high quality, though for some reason I thought the 1st one was a bit unremarkable. The only difficult wad I enjoyed more than this was the Kama Sutra one & Deus Vult II. At any rate that's just a personal taste; this is definitely a legendary wad. | x |

     | This is THE megawad to get, assuming you don't already have it. It's tough, certainly in the style of HR, but the design and aesthetics of AV are much better. There's a fair amount of variety to the maps, but a general continuity of styles (both in texturing and mapping) that make each episode different. You'll be in for a long and hard series of fights, but it's totally worth it (even on HMP). It's a 5, if you couldn't tell already. -'ven | x |

Killer maps: 11(my fav), 20(unique egiptian maze), 25-26(these two are tough and violent, but unforgetable), 05(beautiful), 31(again, unique design), 18(plutonia style, but better). Weak levels, only 21 and annoying 30. 5/5Teh NeXus. | x |

     | AV is definantly a classic. It took a LONG time to make it, and it certainly shows. With 32 levels, some very large, almost all great-looking, and with generally hard but fun gameplay, it isn't hard to see why this wad is so popular and where all the work went into it. Undoubtedly among the top 5 Doom wads of ALL time. | x |

     | This Megawad is insane. A real challenge. Brilliant map design. Hordes of enimies, A great feeling of satisfaction when you finish a level. The only criticism is that one or two of the maps are exteremly frustrating. Hillside Siege, Dark Dome and Walk fire with me for example. | x |

     | Jive - you're quoting from the av.txt out of context. I said skill 4 might be too frustrating for the common Doomer, but you seem to disregard the posibility of playing on a lower skill. I don't mind negative critiques at all if they have some rational basis in anything, but common? Is this the old "I'm too proud to go down a skill level when I play" deal? :) Bashing the gameplay is daft unless you point out what you dislike on each skillsetting, but you can't generalize it. -Johnsen | x |

     | Some maps are insane (Map08, where you have to deal with a archvile and a cyberdemon, chainguners and imp): "Ultra hard gameplay in focus". Great architecture, atmospheric, but the "challenge" is far from what I like! I don't like the gameplay, too much permanently challenging: "It would probably be more frustrating than fun for the common Doomer". I'm a common Doomer, and I had no fun, most of the time. 2/5 - Jive | x |

     | First off, you can't play this game if you suck. I played it on Ultra Violence and have never had so much damn fun. Level 30 is kind of annoying, though, but that's just one level. Every single level rules completely, and the music is perfect. Definantly the best recommendation you can give for veteran Doomers. | x |

     | Amazing! This is my favorite "hard" megawad of all time. It has it all: the intricate gameplay and deatiled architecture of requiem and mm 1 and 2 and the brutallity and epic atmosfere of hr. There was so much effort put into this. The only 2 megawads that I liked more were Requiem and Eternal doom. The best map for me was map11 ,but map20, map 26, map05, map08, and map24 were classic as well. I only disliked maps 21 and 30. A 5 without a moment of thinking. | x |

     | It would have been nice if there was consistency between levels so that the megawad doesn't feel so disjointed. Still, it's a great collaboration of maps. I loved map20, and map01 music. I didn't like the hellish maps much. 5/5 | x |

     | According to the reviews Alien Vendetta seems to be some kind of a classic. I don't understand what's so good about it. Alien Vendetta has too many complex, large, over-detailed, badly lit, confusing and ugly textured maps, that it makes my doom marine want to suicide. I don't mean that all the maps are bad. There are just too many of them. The biggest shortcoming is the texture combinations. Many of the maps look decent at most. Conclusion: 3/5 stars. If you want better quality, I would recommend Scythe | x |

     | Great wad. I still think it biased too much on warp-in ambushes and revenants (they became predictable,) and too little on pain elementals. But surely a great choice for challengers and DOOM 1 nostalgics alike. 5/5 -- Ebon. | x |

     | Overall, a good wad. The individual levels range from amazing to rubbish, but the garbage levels don't come around often enough to bring down the overall quality of the wad very much. I enjoyed AV quite a bit...that is until I hit the last stretch and the the style changed completely. Still, some will have fun with those last few levels; it's just not my thing.

     | about 3/4 of the maps in this is quite fun.
20, 31, 15, 25, and 29 are by far the best maps in the whole wad. the detail, architechture, gameplay, in those maps right there, are quite legendary. the rest of the maps are mostly decent, a couple of bad ones, but for the most part, it is the best ever, if this was a small wad with only the levels i mentioned above, I would give it a perfect 5 star.. but the other maps hold it back, so it earns a 4 from me. | x |

Half the time I had between 16 and 40% life, and occasionally i would go through a whole level with 2% health. Not as god as the above, but i still recommend it. P.S the music rocks

     | The levels in AV range from super to super annoying. I'm not a big fan of the Cyberdemon (or 10) per level formula. Most levels are mapped great and give a great sense of atmosphere. I'll give it 4 stars for the mapping job, but have to dock it some for gameplay on certain maps. 30 Revenant traps anyone? | x |
