Скачать или смотреть The Ultimate Doom - Hell's Bane - E4M8: Deus In Absentia (Ultra-Violence 100%)

Hey Doom lovers, I hope you're ready for more action after my lengthy absence! The wad we're checking out is Hell's Bane by Chris Hansen - a Boom-compatible, full 36-level replacement for The Ultimate Doom's original campaign. Under development for about 2 years, Hell's Bane is in essence a remastered compilation of the levels that Chris designed in the last 25 years (!), plus some brand new ones. For the curious, here is a breakdown of the wad's story from the text file:

"The red dust of a forsaken planet, far away into the fringes of existence, blows away all hope as a new threat arises from the dark, one filled with horns and flesh mutations of steel. Humanity is but a small obstacle in their path towards domination. No man can stand their path, no weapon can truly kill them all, for demons is what they are... and you need a demon to kill a demon.

At the dawn of a new age, hell's bane comes."

Let's get to work!

Additional notes
---------------------------
A very fine ending to the wad and quite an orthodox one given what we've experienced so far - the main arena is essentially a combat puzzle à la Doom II. The really fun part is the flexibility: you can decide to approach this big battle head-on, or let infighting do most of the work for you while skirting around for the inevitable BFG clean-up. In any case you get ample time to prepare and collect all of the secrets so it shouldn't be much of a challenge unless you encounter some bad luck or make extremely risky moves.

That concludes my playthrough of Hell's Bane, thanks a lot for joining me on this journey. Please check the wad's text file for full credits.

See you in the next adventure!
