This Master Level truly feels as if Hell is sending absolutely everything they got in a last ditch effort in order to prevent the Doom Slayer from reaching Immora, I love it.

Its kinda like the film Fargo. The demons are like Lundegard and the two kidnappers represent desperate futility. The slayer is Officer Gunderson who represents fate.

[@JonoBogano]

when you get to the snowy tundra arena with projectiles constantly falling from the sky there was a missed opportunity to put the demon ships from the Immora cutscene above the arena to make it look like hell was bombing the slayer.

Hot take, but I think the chaingunners were really good in this level. A swarm of them really forced my hand into prioritizing them and having a couple of respawning ones scattered around an arena while fighting a super heavy really drained my rocket count. I honestly think they’ve found their stride and I’m happy to see that

[@RacingSnails64]

Agreed, using them in groups is definitely better for them. They're still not that aggressive though. I really wish they had better accuracy and shot more often. They just kinda stand there alot.

[@WolfTamer]

Imo, this level had the best use of both chaingunners and the purple goo in the same fight (the wolf spirit fountain fight).

[@TheExFatal]

I honestly hope that someday they make an Immora master level, and go full ham with it, just make it compeltely batshit insane. Not necessarily puzzle-fights, but just BRUTAL brawls

[@ghoulbuster1]

Immora master level should have no arenas except the final boss, the entire level is filled with infinite respawning demons. Dark lord just poops out more demons to stop you, BFG ammo scattered on the map that forces you to use it by how many demons you face. The last bastion of hell throws the entire Apocalypse at you!

The World Spear Master Level could basically be summed up by the Kylo Ren *"M O R E !"* meme. It's so much goddamn fun

[@secondblackjack1051]

There's actually a sequence break possible in this level that softlocks you after the final arena just before the end of the level. As far as I know the only thing I did differently was go into the Revenant/Blood Maykr room before I was supposed to. The second time you fight in the escalation encounter arena, a checkpoint I was supposed to hit earlier triggered and when I inevitably died it loaded me into an empty arena with all entrances locked. Moral of the story: Don't sequence break.

[@therabbi9848]

I would love to have a master level campaign. My biggest gripe with the current master levels is that you can’t save in the middle of them. It’s just at least an hour of uninterrupted madness. I always feel like I need a break halfway through

[@filipbunalti]

Only Taras Nabad and World Spear are like that. Cultist Base, Arc Complex, SGN and Mars Core are all comfortably under an hour.

[@therabbi9848]

i hope they consider adding some kind of "master level customisation" imagine being able to scroll down a seemingly endless list of one arena fights that are custom made by players... they might not be as fun as the master levels from id software but would be a fun community challenge

[@samurai_wack]

I love how the “marauder, stone imp” room stops you from sticky bombing the marauder’s feet. So creative and cheeky, the devs knew exactly what they were doing!

[@TheDrRandomness]

I hope these arent the last master levels. I'd love if they could make all the levels for the main campaign atleast. They're just so good and cant get enough of this game. Truly one of the best games ive played in decades.

[@LanceOmikron]

This master level was great. An excellent balance of difficulty and combat variety. I'd still say that the *hardest* level with the two most ball-bustingly insane fights of all time is the Taras Nabad master level with the Coin Room and Double Archvile Room. Playing on UV Classic, those two rooms *nearly* broke me (but I did eventually push through and beat them), and I have absolutely no idea how anybody can beat those rooms on Nightmare, let alone Ultra-Nightmare. It's probably for the best that World Spear didn't go for fights at *that* level of utter insanity. Lots of the fights here were extremely tough of course, and I died quite a lot, but none of the rooms stuck out as being a soul-crushing brick wall. I also hope that we continue to get master levels. I genuinely hope that we'll see a day where every level in the game has a master level, with the Cultist Base and Arc Complex proto-master levels being brought up to become true master levels themselves.

[@RacingSnails64]

I gotta be honest, similar to Mars Core, some fights in World Spear just feel like they go on for too long. Just one too many waves. In particular, the first fight that opens with 3 Arachnotrons and a Cursed Prowler, and the first one in the snowy mountains with the explosions raining from the sky following the hunt for several buff totems. These fights feel much too long. That all said, World Spear still has some absolutely EXCELLENT encounters. The Marauder in the attic, the amped up toxic floor Screecher room, that cathedral sniping section, the purple goo sewer, the low ceiling Pinky arena, the thick fog Spectre cave, and I appreciate the very final fight being 2 Doom Hunters and a Marauder. Crazy stuff. I don't know if they should've done the teleporting back to previous arenas thing that Taras Nabad did. I do like the spirit Baron around the Torch of Kings, but going back to the escalation encounter with a spirit Tyrant and lasers just felt bloated. They should've just put those lasers in the arena the first time.

[@jamesmarshmallow5602]

Those laser walls utterly destroyed my frame rate on my console, especially in the little section towards the end with massive walls on the side - I had to meathook straight through to the portal cause I was getting like 5 fps and couldn’t fight

[@ThatKoukiZ31]

You brought up a great point. 3 levels at this intensity would be exhausting. Like TAG1 was when it was new, but I don't think many of us would get used to the high intensity of a TAG2 master campaign. But man would it be awesome. A true test of your skills to fight the big bad.

[@mollywantshugs5944]

I assume that “balanced around the hammer” is going to be the case for any future DLC Master Levels as well.

[@Mrcryptidsarereal]

You think they would approach making Master Levels of the DLC 1 content like this? Given that they are already tough enough, I suppose it would only be logical to make them even more difficult by scaling them up to the hammer, even though it requires DLC 2.

[@RacingSnails64]

I think only the TAG2 master levels can use the hammer. It's hard to imagine TAG1 master levels, but World Spear shows they can absolutely go push the DLC to its limits. My pc can barely handle this master level there's so much shit going on lol.

[@pulsarbeam3857]

I think the correct option was to make it three pips to charge the hammer have it ignite enemies instead of multiply the armor you get back making it effectively a second flame belch And to have it give back chainsaw fuel instead of ammo directly so it feels more like a power up to the chainsaw rather than a replacement for it

[@Rizzo91]

Loved this level. Toughest UN run I had of all the master levels and it felt so rewarding to beat it!

[@brennangulka9793]

When this launched, I was taking a break from doom eternal. I played a bit of horde, some battle mode and eventually got around to beating the Mars core master level last month. Today, I’m playing this level on uv for the first time and it’s probably my favorite. All the demons create a really nice loop where I wasn’t really thinking, instead I was in a trance and have only died to the first marauder, that’s it. This is some damn fun and I’m hoping this sets the stage for the next game

[@voidwalker3591]

Really great review. All four new Master Levels have been really high-quality, and I also hope to see more in the future.

[@paytonramsdill9296]

I think maybe my favorite encounter is the archvile room at the start. It’s so great because you see the enemies spawning and see the flames at your feet so you look for an archvile and once you find it you’re like “all right back to business” but then you look again and all of a sudden you realize there’s more. Then you kill the second and you’re like “all right finally” but you get got AGAIN with ANOTHER ARCHVILE! The fakeout is so great because they are so far apart in such a big confusing room it can be hard to know if you’ve looked in certain places. Love that encounter. It’s hard, fast, and it forces you to let at least one archvile buff all the enemies too! I think that is such a smart way to do archviles!

[@ChaosMarine9118]

The laser room that nerfed your frame rate did the same thing for me on Xbox, but I’m on the Xbox One S currently. Wonder how it’s working for series X users. Great review, definitely agree this was a fantastic master level.

[@RhysClark97]

this single master level gives me so much hope for the future of ID...right when i think theyre starting to run thin on ideas they show that theyre at the top of their game in creativity, never thought of the idea of buff totems being spawned with environmental hazards but here we are, its like a mini tower defence rush in the middle of a combat arena, fantastic.

[@Jessewhosoever95]

We should start a petition to get more master levels for doom eternal... I would definitely buy them all since doom eternal is one of my favorite games. I still at least play a level a day to Rip & Tear and especially to hear the music

[@roberthawks1084]

The underground crypt section runs fine on my ps5, but the bridge scene with the laser walls tanks my frame rate. The videos great mayo!

[@Riverslidebishop]

Love your videos mayo. Whenever Doom content releases, I get a second wave of excitement in the days following, anticipating your video! Dude I just beat this level on Xbox on Ultra Nightmare a few minutes before I saw this was uploaded, I'm on top of the world at the minute. I've had maybe 6 or 7 attempts in the past few days, and never managed to get past the possessed pinky room. My last run was the first time I made it past that room and I beat the whole level! My heart was bloody racing. Then I flick over to youtube to chill out a bit and see you've just put up your video. Sorry people of the internet for oversharing but I'm on a real Doom Eternal fuelled high at the minute. Also, no issues as far as I know on console with the red lasers in the hammer room. I have however been experiencing some issues with the meathook since update 6.66. Every now and again I'll hook an enemy but the slayer doesn't move. Just stays put awkwardly while the chain hangs between me and a demon.

I think my play was different at first, because on release day, I did horde first, then Mars, THEN this one! I was tired by then lol

[@Mario17h1]

A "Master Level Bundle" pack that's like $10 or $20 I would buy. It's like 5 master levels bundled together, like 3 campaign, 2 DLC or something like that.

[@ericdesjardins1854]

The World Spear ML is such a weird mission for me. Like on one hand you have weird, fun and clever moments (like the teleporting, the 1 inch roof, the hazards and the purple goo passage) but then you have a bunch of excessively long encounters that drag the level out to an hour or so. Also, I’m really iffy on the lasers cause they change up the combat in an interesting way but the astrocious CC is obnoxious. I think Mars Core has World Spear beat cause it has more consistently good and enjoyable fights and is overall a lot more fun.

[@underthemayo]

I think the CC is what makes them great. Without it you wouldn't need to respect them. Unless they just obliterated your life bar but people would complain about that too.

[@ericdesjardins1854]

@@underthemayo Yeah I guess if you put it into that perspective, it won’t sound so bad. I think CC is fine overall but my main issue with CC is that the formula has become way too common and overrused, especially when designing new master levels. It’s not all bad though: I love the possessed Baron with spinning blades but the vertical ones in the courtyard…no thanks

[@kevgmei]

That was a really cool master level; just did it. Took everything out of me, though! The first half was just pure fun, especially with the stone imp room which is weird because I was used to those enemies being just whatever. I was also taken aback the one time in my entire experience with this game that I actually had fun in purple goo. The second half was just nuts. The first tundra arena was AWESOME, but it took every fibre of my being to get through it. Took me forever, but ironically, it was over as soon as I found the first totem. Then there was the escalation encounter. That was a LOT of waves and buffed enemies. Last fight was cool.

[@errornoname23]

Something I realised recently - TAG1 has no Master Levels, and I expect that many people’s choice for one would be The Blood Swamps. If they did the same arena warping thing at the end that they did with Taras Nabad and The World Spear… …there’s a chance we could fight in some *real* arenas with The Trial of Maligog playing.

[@sparkls4492]

I LOVE this mission, I was constantly surprised by the new creative arenas

[@CorwinTheOneAndOnly]

I want all the levels to eventually be made into official master levels specifically so we can have an entire "Master Campaign" as like the ultimate challenge, where once you beat it, it'd be the most fun you'd had, but also something you'd never want to do again. Also so we can have a completely new category of 100% glitchless speedrunning that is VERY hard.

[@Condred]

Regarding the hidden buff totems at 15:50 - I'm not certain on this, but I'm pretty sure that they're designed in a way that they can be found by using the meathook point to get higher ground and see above the mounds and stuff covering it. At least, this was my first instinct when I realised that there were buff totems somewhere. Really cool use of the meathook point in my opinion

Always fun to watch your reviews. ;-) I surprised myself over the fact that I didn't die during the last arena/teleportation rounds when I attempted my Classic Nightmare playthrough. This has a Taras Nabad-style approach, being a lot more methodical which is excellent. I love the Marauder in claustrophobic sections since TAG1 and Super Gore Nest, a reminder of the original encounter in the ARC Complex. Still doesn't beat Taras Nabad in its use of the Marauder which I found a bit underwhelming in Mars Core (where the Archvile really stood out instead). Minor spoiler for those who didn't try Classic: The Sentinel Hammer isn't found where you think it's gonna be.

[@Aries0098]

The laser themselves on the underground arena and on the bridge don't tank the performance. There's a weird bug with the driver that makes your gpu use 99% utilization but only 50%-60% power usage. This was present since the RTX & DLSS patch and mostly affects NVIDIA users. The workaround here is to turn all settings to low and turn on DLSS to performance; apply, then turn them back to your old settings. If you don't have an RTX card, changing the resolution to lower then back to the original helps.

Mayo, knowing how much you love Halo, i'm suprised we havent seen an in-depth review of the multiplayer, what's going on? We finally have a game that's de-throned Doom Eternal as the best shooter game out there and you haven't reviewed it yet! I'm not mad, just dissapointed.

[@hazzardkitsune]

There's not many games that I consistently want to get better at, but Doom Eternal is one of them and I ABSOLUTELY AGREE: WE WILL PAY FOR EACH MASTER LEVEL AT THIS POINT, I DO NOT CARE, KEEP THIS GOING UNTIL FULL MASTER CAMPAIGN!

Baron casually offing himself in the background at 3:08

[@salvatoredanunciacao7770]

I hope they implement some kind of master campaign at one point. That would be a cool way to spice up the game and keep interest going forward.

[@Supermann64]

Great Review,and i agree with the Year 2 idea. More Master lvl pls :)

[@trenth3492]

20:36 don’t think you can hide text from me Mayo

[@avrg-doom-enjoyer-yz4td]

3:08 did anyone notice the baron in the backround dying?

[@dominicbruscato2874]

Don’t know why but I struggled way more with the first half of the level, second half didn’t seem nearly as hard. Overall great master level. Probably the best they’ve done so far.

[@markener4316]

The second half is also harsh, but the first is BRUTAL.

Against what Mayo said, as a nightmare trying to do ultra nightmare player, I want a FULL game like this. At this pace, it will take like 2 years, but I really want a Doom Eternal Master Campaign. I would love if the last 3 updates are: Hell on Earth + Gladiator arena, next update the Maykr level, and lastly the icon of sin level, all boss battles in master mode. I can't believe how insanely cool these master modes are to an already masterful game.

[@thurstt9158]

I’ve probably played this master level about 100 times now,one of the best gaming experience ever

[@RedDeadDevilTrigger]

I beat this yesterday on Ultra-Violence going in almost completely blind aside from the first two fights before you go to where the Armoured Baron’s usually introduced, it took me four hours, and it was absolutely batshit fucking insane

[@DB-xz1sb]

This was fucking hard. It took me 3 or 4 attempts to beat it...fucking hell, I used the hammer a lot, and I really dont like using super weapons....but yah, finally beat it today....and well....I want more !

[@codythep]

Hundred percent agree. Doom Eternal is my favorite game. I’ve got it AND the DLC for both consoles and would pay for a year two subscription.

[@lukeang5615]

Yeah, there a way to keep this coming. Add an ingame level designer tool for users to publish their own community maps and modified levels with access to all the structures models and assets and have them all on a community based platform within the game where other users can vote on them
