/vr/ - Retro Games

Man Eviternity is such a mixed bag. The theming, level design, and soundtrack are top notch and the earlier maps of the game are especially good, but the further i've gotten into it the more the enemy usage has gotten frustrating as hell. I've been forced to save before i touch any button or lever in fear of something popping out that immediately kills me. Im getting real sick of multiple revenants teleporting in or stepping around corners and the use of archviles in inconvenient spots is getting out of hand. Also can't say im a fan of the random slaughter maps every so often or that little stunt where i had to fight four cyberdemons followed by a vile popping in when i opened the door.

I'm only playing this on HMP too (im by no means a master), but half my deaths or encounters feel like its designed for people who know whats coming. i can't get enough of the aesthetics and soundtrack, but man it's a bit cheap with the demons. and map19 was just unnecessary
