Func_Msgboard: Most _evil

Posted by Tronyn on 2005/10/16 19:08:57

I don't think this topic has been done before (forgive me if it has). A thread to mention, discuss, describe etc the most evil maps ever.

I begin by nominating "Inferno" and "Thy Flesh Consumed" from the Ultimate Doom. I think those episodes have set a standard with some of the most gruesome and disturbing stuff, which has rarely been reached since. All the moving intestines on the walls, floors of skulls, crucified bodies draining into pools of blood, fire, pentagrams and demons - good stuff.

I Think I Have To Agree With You...

Doom is so much more disturbing than Quake.

No maps from 'blood' nominated?

Blood...

The whole game emits smell of evil, yet tasteful...

I'm still haunted by the theme...how I wish I could use a "blood" icon here...

Totally evil. The buildup to the first encounter is great.

I clicked this topic expecting something along the lines of "what are the hardest, most teeth-gnashingly frustrating maps ever?", and I was all ready to trot out the usual suspects, but I see we're discussing *evil* in the traditional sense :}

In that case, I'd have to say Doom3 is a good candidate. Melty-face-in-the-mirror, Crucified-maggot-room-guy, all the evil whispers and visions, the way the whole Mars base falls apart into hellish chaos as you get further into the game, and of course Hell itself.

It is also worth mentioning the final return to what what once the Delta Labs in the RoE missionpack. Something about that map fucked my shit right up.

No Skull Walls Or Pentagrams Here.

The singlemost chillingly evil atmosphere of any map I've played, was the 'garden' section in System Shock 2.

The mansion in Undying was pretty twisted.

Blood didn't seem all that evil to me. I felt it was more like a disturbing cartoon. Still pretty nasty, though. I'd love to see that theme pulled off successfully on today's--or even yesterday's technology.
