Re: The Crack of Doom Version 1.01 is Live
I passed this mod on HARD mode and with a new group starting at level 1. The hardest in terms of combat I've played in a long time.
Total time: 28:50 hours (actually I think it was much more with the times I had to reload the game after dying, I'm the kind of person who forgets to save the game often).
Secrets: 70/80
Epic items: 21/23
Treasures: 4/5
I won't play it again because it's too long and hard (maybe in a few months), but if the creator puts a guide showing where are all the secrets, treasures and epic items I would look for the ones I missed from a saved game in the last level. Very nice new textures, new monsters and music.
Sadly, my biggest jam in the game was not because of a combat or a puzzle, it was in the level 650ft south, when killing a monster on an aerial magic platform a key fell and the key was not seen because it was TOTALLY camouflaged with the edge of that platform that was brown. I was stuck in that level not knowing what to do for 4 or 5 hours and thinking that the mod was bugged. By chance by clicking desperately the key appeared on the cursor, because I suspected that in that area should be the key because it was a strongly defended and hidden place. To prevent these things from happening it would be better if the really important objects were in chests, pedestals or niches, never in monsters that drop an object when they die.
I also got stuck a lot in mazes in levels that are several levels deep (water + three floors), I think I have a bad sense of direction in this kind of levels.
P.S.: With a lot of patience I killed absolutely all the monsters in all the levels, except for the spawns
Thank you very much for creating this mod!
