This was going to be a world record post but BFGandorf beat me to it. gg!
Nevertheless, map 2 was a pretty fun map (even if the layout was fairly simple). The start was kinda hot with hitscanners, you shoot the imps and barrels at the start so that there's less clean up at the end. Then you escape into the stair trap in which you proceed to kill everything there.
Once that's done, you grab the yellow key, kill the "assault rifle zombie" and then move into the next area. Then once that area is done, grab the two secrets and blow everything else up. Then you're done!
The gate is short, fun and an absolute blast. The secret rocket launcher offers a way better experience at the end since I find it satisfying watching the stragglers gib and blow up. The arch vile is also an unexpected surprise and leaves a spicy end to the map. It's not anything hard though, since all of this is pretty manageable even without the secrets.
Expect this kind of gameplay for the majority of the lost magic. At some point it will rank up in difficulty, but it will also be far away from the other wads I am currently completing.
