Continuing with Avactor after far too long. It took me a long time to do this after the first map, partially because I spent a lot of time either not playing Doom or being distracted by other WADs, but also because this map killed me a lot more than I expected. It may only be the second map, but already these maps put up quite a fight!

Most of what I had trouble with is in the first third, up until obtaining the rocket launcher. There are a lot of hitscanners to chip away at one's health, and having nothing more than the super shotgun and chaingun to dispatch the variety of foes leaves me wanting. Even after getting the rocket launcher, ammo for it is not plentiful, but it's enough to open up the gameplay options, and from that point on I feel better about my chances for completing the rest of the level (though I still had a number of deaths in the latter half of the map).

I'm pretty satisfied with how this demo turned out, except for the half minute I spent after getting the yellow key searching for what I thought was a missed enemy. It's not too big a deal compared to the length of the whole run, though, so I'm happy to leave it at that and move on to the next map. Lots more to see in this WAD!
