(Profanity Warning)
Just skip to 33.25. Each “Act” is me restarting the map, cause I kept getting stuck in bad situations. 33.25 is the final restart. Also the audio is still a little quiet, but I think it’s better than map16. We’re back in business in map18, I promise!
The reason behind the initial audio imbalance was I decided to switch back to FBX from OBS again and it took me a couple tries to get the balance back.

Serious Review:
Dear lord this is by far the hardest map in the wad for me. I thought I was playing Dimensions for a second. The max for this map is only 1:32, yet the video is 45 minutes long, lol. Anyway, I don’t see how taking care of the archviles in the center could be consistent at all. Once you move in for the kill, you have to stay there or else you will be ass-blasted on the retreat. This wouldn’t be a problem, however the way the cells are placed means you only have at max 600 cells to deal with all the archviles. It’s kind of ingenious if you think about it.
Overall, I think it was too hard for me to have fun in, but I can see that it was a well-crafted setpiece, and there were no weird progression issues like the past maps, so I’ll be generous with my score. I do like the visuals too, they’re simple but they get the job done.
My Rating: 7.5/10
Difficulty: 9.5/10 (Oppressive)
