| While it is fun for the most part, its not quite as consistently good as the original Hell Revealed, Alien Vendetta, or even Kama Sutra.
I'd honestly avoid maps 6, 14, and 28 altogether. | x |

| A rather uneven mapset. It has some great maps ("The Chapel of Black Granite"), some forgettable ones and some terrible ones ("Beyond the Sea"). Some, like "Base Blaze", make you question how did they even get into this mapset in the first place. Not exactly as great as the original. | x |

| Doesn't look like HR. Homages don't make it look more like HR. Which is good for me, because I enjoyed this tons, and didn't enjoy HR a bit. Grave's music for here is far beyond super legendary, almost as defining as stock music by Bobby Prince. | x |

| Mixed bag. Some great fun maps, while others get a bit boring. Design is adequate for the most part. Music, though good, mostly sound way too melodramatic for the levels. Would've prefered some ROTT/Heretic music instead (I know, they're overused, but they fit HR styled gameplay like a glove). 3/5 | x |

| Shouldn't have been called Hell Revealed 2. With the exception of handful of the maps, the wad just didnt have that HR feel to it. A lot of the maps, particularly the later ones, felt like a drag to play, and simply aren't fun. The music, while decent, particularly sounded too serious, unlike the more fun sounding music from HR1. If you want a real HR2, play Kama Sutra, as that generally captured the HR feel a hell of a lot more than this disappointment. | x |

| Possibly the weirdest mapset I've played with. It's got strange levels, strange music etc. and in style it's quite different from the first HR, although I'd might say this one is actually better. VERY hard, but that's the esence of the HR-series. A classic, this is the best wad of 2003 along with Scythe. 5/5 | x |

| Looks nice, but sadly it's an average gameplay experience. From around even the first map, they're tedious works of holding "fire" and using obscene numbers of cellpacks/Megasphere s. One of the wads responsible for forcing the standard of "challenging" by adding loads of enemy&ammo spam instead of being creative by rationing ammo and having decent traps because fuck interesting or fun gameplay, lets toss a BFG and 2000 cellpacks among several thousand cybies and revenants every 2 feet. | x |

| The way the gameplay is set up makes everything predictable, repetetive, and extremely mundane extremely quickly. You do the same thing over and over and over again to the point that it's not even fun to begin with. While it is a good visual piece, that has no merit while one is truly (attempting) to play this. It's really a big disappointment since this was supposed to be a successor to HR1, but it turned out to be Nuts 4. | x |

| The balance of this wad is terrible. Too many levels that, even on lower difficulties, seem way beyond impossible. I was able to go through most of HR's levels on UV, but here there isn't enough room, and there's way too many demons in my way. Such a shame, I like the music and the levels look nice but that's it. | x |

| The difficulty mainly consists of monster spam in rooms too small to allow proper movement to deal with the almost always overpowered monsters for the area. I honestly believe that this is a terribly half-assed method of artificially making a mapset more difficult than it truly needs to be in a way that is absolutely unnecessary, and this one abuses that even worse than the previous HR. 1/5 simply because the designers weren't even trying to make a fun wad, just the hardest one they could think of. | x |

| Monster placement reminds me of a jokewad. Archies in the first map and Arachnotrons in the second? Come on, that's not hard. That's just cheap. You'd have more luck beating Mock 2 fair and square without cheating than beating this mess of overpopulated and cramped maps the same way. | x |

| A mixed bag, really. Some maps are really awesome, and offer quite unique concepts and fun challenges, while others are just lazily designed filler levels that are only hard simply because of the monster spam. Not a horrible megawad, but definitely could've been better. | x |

| Insanely difficult with its hordes of monsters and increasingly complex maps, HR 2 is everything HR was and more. It's a lot of fun (and torture) to play through on the higher-diffulty settings, and I can assure you that you won't be bored! Although, to play ON UV seriously, you should be an expert at Doom, or, at least, close to it because HR 2 will test your skills with each level. Recommended for those who like "monster madness" type WADs, for sure. | x |

| What happens when you morph E4 style maps with E4M2 difficulty + D2 monsters and piss on the original HR which was hard but actually fun? You get HR2, it's overly angsty sequel (for all we know it could be a prequel ala DMC3) that went from challenge the player to just "kill the player on sight". I played UV on the original but I enjoyed it. I consider myself a Doom masochist; HR2 actually hurts. | x |

| Awful music. Average gameplay at best. Using a famous wad name and throwing tons of monsters doesn't automatically make a good mapset. Lots of wads do the slaughterfest gameplay right - unlike its predecessor, Hell Revealed 2 isn't on that list.

| This *might* not be quite as fine as the first HR. It is still great. Lots of gunslinging and making stuff go BOOM. I never found it *too* hard, but then I always enjoy coming up with new ways to attack a given force. I've never had to take on combined arms forces with whole *squads* of archviles before; that added a whole new dimension to Doom combat. Lovely work, guys. | x |

| While this was a valaint effort to succeed HR1, I really felt that #2 didn't quite fill the shoes of HR1. There was something seriously lacking in these levels that was present in HR1: maybe the design, maybe attention to detail, or possibly a mix of those together. If you like HR1, it's kinda questionable whether you'll also appreciate this one. 3/5 is my score (attention to detail and monster placement weren't quite there, from what I've experienced). | x |

| Who cares about how it looks? I still love this WAD, some levels are plain epic, map 29 "Hell's Cauldron" is pure epicness. Great music, epic setting. Best map 29 I've ever played.
Still, nothing beats the insanity of map 32 'Playground'. Still, it is possible on UV... Insane as it might be.
HR II is one of the greater megawads out there, even today. HR, AV, MM I, MM II, The Rebirth... All great megawads and HR II can take place amongst them, it deserves it. 5 stars. | x |

| Hell Revealed 2 came to be the long awaited wad that didnt do it for me. Perhaps it was the feel of maps too architecturally "advanced" (yet majorely mundane) for the gameplay it wanted to host, the lacking spark of creativity in the homage maps or the filler levels. Simply put, to me this was overkill and lackluster. Chrozoron holds the highlights with some creative creations like map29. Not enough to save the wad overall however, and it gets a 2/5 from me. -Johnsen | x |

In later maps it just becomes a tiresome Bfg-rocket-Ssg grind, I love big battles, but this is, well, it's just a little dissapointing, especially for having way too many HR references in both design and level names, there's just nothing that would make me play it again, so I'll give it a 3. -TeH NeXuS | x |

| The name comes probably from the fact that HR had monster hordes in the most part, and that the texture theme was quite rigid too. Now it's really limited to desert bricks typical to Doom 2. That said, the levels look dull and monotonous, but are helped by some tense action and catchy death metal midi tunes. Sometimes it's just too much overkill with overguns, tho. 4/5. IC | x |

| Very worthy followup to HR and equally as insane as its predecessor on UV - the fights seemed pretty well calculated and methodical this time around, whereas a lot of HR's were more like running / praying firefights. Music was great, lots of epic levels, but design quality bounced around a bit and a few battles are truly, absolutely unreasonable (though still more than possible). It gets a strong 4 from me 'cause the carnage never lets up. | x |

| Brutal! This megawad has some of the most insanely violent and tough levels I've ever played (maps 29, 32, anyone?). Unfortunalety, I think the design pales in comparison to AV and HR1. For me, there were a bit too many maps that were copies of HR1 maps and some others (maps 13, 27 and 15 are actually quite shameless ripoffs). But when you call your megawad Hell revealed 2, you know that expectations will rise beyond any calculations. It's still worth playing though. 3.5 stars rounded up to 4. | x |

| Some levels' architecture is simply astounding, making the levels very engaging. If you are skilled enough, you will have memorable moments of survival when you take on insane odds with your weapon. Unfortunately, like in the original, the designers' go overboard and create levels that are too difficult (and mundane) even on the easiest skills by simply placing too many monsters. By placing a zillion enemies the gameplay is affected adversely, especially for later levels (ie. Map 32). - 4 stars. | x |

The project itself is a testament to the hard work and dedication of a lot of people - especially Andy Olivera, who deserves a standing ovation for bringing this masterpiece to completion. If you want more of the same type of gameplay that made HR and AV so addicting, look no further. Though this doesn't quite live up to all the hype it is a worthy successor of HR, and right up there with the best. --5/5 | x |
