A strange map indeed... a horribly frustrating parkour and original hybrid... it is a weird one, I know... The finale is worth it...
(1. This is the first review using Sony Vegas... so new intro, new format, new outro, better quality...
2. L4D2 crashed several times during this... no because of the map, but because my PC was shitting itself that day... so there will be some "inconsistencies here and there...)
Pros
+ Finale was quite unique and fun...
Cons
- Basic visuals... until finale
- Extremely frustrating gameplay... until chapter three
- Hard for the sake of being hard... until chapter three
Final Verdict
50/100
Copied from my review on the site...
"Now that I have suffered through that Masochistic Fantasy... I still don't know what to think...
First thing that happens when you start... the floor breaks, revealing the challenge ahead of you (pray you were not standing in a bad spot, or you will die instantly)... if you didn't die... you jump a couple platforms, then suddenly a boomer in front of you and a smoker behind you... and there is a trigger_hurt directly under the top platforms... both of them are pretty much instant kills... and somehow if you survive that a couple tanks are thrown into the small level for the sake of it... oh and a jockey in the "end saferom" if you were lucky enough to get to it...
Stuff like this is literally everywhere through the first two chapters... Boomers spawned under a witch on a narrow platform... two tanks around a corner... an army of witches... this shit is everywhere...
Then suddenly... you get to the finale... expecting the worst... and what this now?... Music? No dev-textures? An actual environment with some unique architecture and a neat concept?
Out of nowhere... this campaign suddenly becomes good... great even... which makes no sense to me... why the sudden jump in quality?...
If you were to make an entire campaign similar to the Finale... instead of whatever you started with... then this could potentially be something great...
As of right now though... it is like swimming in a ocean of salty lemonade, filled with barbed wire and razor-blade fish everywhere... and at the very bottom of the ocean... it is a utopia... "
I have always supported the idea that the end goal is not worth it if the journey was torture... This map is no exception... HOWEVER, the finale was such a surprise... I am tempted to say this one time... it might be worth it... If you have the patience to walk that vertical path...
