The last chunk of Map 22 looks very similar to the Demon Ruins in the first Dark Souls. They even got the dark cave leading into the ruins which was valley of the giants.

[@endless_doom5337]

I am very fond of this level for two reasons: 1. It was one of the first megawads I completed after a long Doom hiatus. I loved it. 2. It showed me that the Doom community is global and there is as much skill on this side of the world as the other.

[@eX1st4132]

I feel like every part of your videos has improved drastically since your first WAD review. Your commentary on the levels' combat, art, and general experience is much more clear, memorable, and informative. Your comedic efforts are much more defined, and I quite enjoy them, and find myself audibly laughing at times. Any of your videos make me want to immediately play that WAD. Your reviews are exactly what a WAD review should look like. Thank you for making these videos.

[@MtPain27]

Thank you :)

[@Andy_Paluzzi]

Here's another megawad recommendation: Hellbound. It's not for everyone, the premise of the wad is creating huge and complex maps somewhat "realistic", with hundreds of enemies, but I really liked it, every map feels like an exciting adventure. I know you get many recommendations, but it's your fault for creating an awesome series =)

[@MtPain27]

It's taking me awhile to play through Hellbound, but I think it will make a good episode someday

[@liamaldrich2476]

I started playing this project soon after watching this episode, and I must say: Toooooasty may be one of my favorite mappers whose work I have played. His penchant for chaos and his grand designs make his maps an absolute treat to me.

[@hebonky]

In one of Toooooasty's last maps called Crimson Crash Child, the entire map is in the shape of a person, and it's not half bad! I enjoy crashing the secretive monster meeting, and blowing up the landscape. Seems like he has a thing for making art in doom builder.

[@DinnerForkTongue]

In a sense, Benjogami is like him.

[@liamaldrich2476]

I picked this WAD up the day that you released this review. I just finished it tonight, it was the first non-commercial Doom megawad I have ever played from start to end. It was incredible. The passion and love in many of these maps is absolutely intoxicating, especially maps 28 and 29. Thank you so much for giving me this experience.

[@MtPain27]

My pleasure! Here's to many more.

[@PC2mill_alt]

Your analysis of map 29: Hazmat Hazama was so mysterious and intriguing and had such an incredible background music that I downloaded that JPCP just to have this experience first handed. Your WAD reviews are getting better with each installment and the final description "fleetingly brilliant, occasionally messy but always worth your time" was a genius touch. Keep up with the great work.

[@Bubba365]

I really like your reviews... In one you said something like "I'm a writer who DOOMs" and that shows -- the writing in these is excellent. You have thoughtful comments on map design, aesthetics, and even the music. It's nice to see someone who is so well-rounded making these videos. Cheers.

[@pannomic]

Poor Japanese Community of Doom, they have an amazing mappers. They deserve more attention!

[@J0000OOOO]

Oh hell yes I am excited to watch this one. This wad holds a very special place in my heart. It was a huge part of making me a better Doom player as I was (and still am) quite casual, and the maps are just so much fun and brimming with personality. EDIT: Well I am validated with MAP26 being the hardest... Thought it was just me, but I spent forever trying to beat that one. Nanka and Toooooasty's maps have to be my favourite overall. Nanka has a versatile style but everything she makes is a marvel in some way, and I'm a sucker for the surreal so Toooooasty hits that sweet spot for me.

[@funnyguy8498]

I like how blood fund gang is a map in DOOM, based on PAYDAY, using ISAAC music. 10/10.

[@aabattery4092]

13:28 Little bit of information, the MIDI for this map is a remix of the basement theme in the original Binding of Isaac

[@breadbunbun]

It was awesome seeing you review this megawad. it has always been one of my favorites due to some of the mappers dedication to visual design. which i can't say i see too often in projects like this. And while the combat may not be stellar all the time. It certainly holds its own and pushes you through the wad.

[@jacobgray9077]

Wow. Woodexial is actually my favorite map in the entire wad. It's so weird and has so much detail, they are multiple paths to beating it. Plus, there's so much hidden content and so many odd secrets. I found it such a joy to explore. It reminds me of a level that you might see in the ultimate Doom. Plus, the music is so good. To be fair, Thermal disposal place is my second fav.

[@continuum_mid]

Thanks for introducing me to this WAD (and many others). This was the second community Doom WAD I finished (after Freedoom Phase 2) and at its best it was probably the most fun I've yet had playing Doom.

[@lukecampbell5341]

So glad to see JPCP covered, even if just to hear a review of My Fav. The maps in this WAD are so different to most everything I'd played to this point that it really is something special.

[@RealMephres]

Your laugh caught me off-guard, but it's a good one, just like JPCP.

[@tjg121389]

Ah yes, I've been waiting for this one. I realized while watching that the maps that stood out for me were the more visually distinctive ones (I'm lowkey disappointed with Woodexial's "D" since that's one of the more memorable maps to me), and I don't really remember how hard the levels are. I remember HeLLport being tough, but that's about it. I think Maps 27 and 29 are my fav (pun kinda intended), and it's mostly due to the striking visuals. I love Map 27's use of green, and 29's insanity. Maybe since I've played so many DOOM maps since 2004, I go more towards the aesthetics of a map instead of the combat since the combat doesn't really change but the level design can, especially with the use of custom textures and source ports allowing more creativity. Still, this is an incredibly solid megaWAD and it's really fun. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

Just want to say I love your videos. I found them last week when the one about Scythe popped into my stream, then I binged them all in a couple of days and waited eagerly for this one. I'd love to see you cover: -Return to Hadron: Feels like Skillsaw takes on Doom 1 to me. -Interception 2 : especially since you like TNT. -NOVA 2/3: Newbie maps but with a whole lot of quality control. -Unholy Realms: Fast, fun, and frantic. -Lost Civilization: Some of the prettiest maps I've seen, and it's hard to believe it's a Boom megawad with all the trickery used. But honestly whatever you cover I'll be happy.

[@dacrylis820]

Rencently found your channel and I really enjoy hearing your takes on each map in these megawads. This video convinced me to give JPCP a try and the level design is crazy detailed. Especially 54-pit, that one really got it's hooks into me. Heh, seeing maps like this makes me want to dust off Doombuilder again to just fiddle around. I cant imagine how much time some of these maps must have taken to create. Anyways, great work covering all of these wads!

if it isn't one of the first wads i've played through immediately after doom 1. there was always a sort of cheeky, lively aura with this wad that i can't help but love (i guess i can chalk it up to the midi choices), and so many different ideas that somehow never clash with each other or feel tonally inconsistent to me. thank you for this review :)

[@lhfirex]

I know Japanese sorta well (I'd say at an intermediate level, by their own testing standards for language proficiency) and I'm still trying to figure out what the pun with 54 pit is. It's probably something to do with the Japanese pronunciations of the numbers, either as "gojuuyon" (fifty-four) or "gojuushi" (another way to say fifty-four) or "go yon" (five four) or "go shi" (another way to say five four). I 100% get why you say Tyousen's name the way it is, his spelling is a quirk of JP keyboards. It should actually be pronounced like "Cho-sen" which means start of hostilities or competition. He writes his name as Tyousen because in the "ta" set of Japanese syllables, they don't have "ti," they have "chi," and you can modify "chi" to be "cha, cho, or chu" for other syllables, so when typing on a JP keyboard, you'd just type in "tyo" and hit tab or space to get it converted to "cho." I'm actually still using my keyboard I got from when I lived in Japan! Anyway, thanks for the review! I just like when I get to use some of my language knowledge with one of my all time favorite games.

[@sosu6227]

Doesn't 4 sound like "death" in japanese? Maybe that has something to do with it and it's a pun.

Many Japanese games have or had cult status in the states despite being very popular in Japan; Monster Hunter and Dragon quest come to mind. I makes sense that a very popular game internationally would at least get cult status over there, especially when you consider the modding scene Doom has.

[@ultrak0w]

yeah he might need to ditch the pistol start rule for the last 1/3 of Sunlust

[@utopua4all]

I do have to give Embodiment of Maliciousness a little credit, using one of the Final Fantasy 8 final boss themes was pretty clever. Fits rather well with the name.

[@DinnerForkTongue]

24:35 Knowing how Japanese society is, that may actually be right. Masa could be trying not to come off as big-headed to his fellows, because he's got the mapping talent for sure, but it might have been interpreted as showoff-y.

[@wonderguardstalker]

Wow great video covering a community I hadn’t thought too much of. Though in hindsight it’s easy to see the Cacodemon being a favorite over there. This is the first video of yours I’ve seen and I think I’ll check the rest.

[@JVerschueren]

13:24 they are literal English translations of "mood-invoking" phrases in Japanese. Those phrases are called "kimochi", I believe, and there's another word for the practise of literally translating them into English, which Google refuses to help me find right now. As for the .wad itself: I literally got stuck on map 5 (repeatedly dying by getting stuck on the environment) and did a rage quit. One definately has to have an appreciation for the community aspect of it, because it's definately not a slick Doom experience.

[@thalligator016]

Just re-watched this episode and at map 27 I asked myself: "will there ever be a proper Sunlust episode in Dean of Doom? Or any of Ribbiks' Mapsets?" Sunlust has become my all-time favorite Megawad and I would die to see a serious DoD Video 😄

[@michaelplasket627]

Another great analysis, and you've looked at nearly all of the maps that got weaponsets from Final Doomer too! Unfortunately, the remaining two, Hellbound and Whitemare 2, don't quite reach the highs of this, BTSX, or Ancient Aliens. I enjoyed Hellbound for what it was worth, but some people have docked it for boring combat and, while my memory is fuzzy, I can say it's not the most impressive-looking megawad all around. Whitemare 2, I still haven't played much of yet, but it seems to be a bizarre mishmash of various ideas that look great but play mixed, particularly the infamous map 20. I did play through the first Whitemare, though... it's pretty damn amateurish. I digress. While I commented on episode 13 that I wouldn't suggest ideas (since you've probably got a mountain of suggestions already), since you've lauded viewers for suggesting this and Going Down, what the Hell. The above-mentioned HB and WM2 are Cacowards runners-up, so while flawed, they might be worth a check. Allow me to add five more suggestions that I can happily recommend: 1: Revolution!: Thomas van der Velden's classic 2001 map provides a mostly-easy challenge but a well-rounded look at level design for the time. Don't forget Jimmy's MIDI pack for it! 2: Epic 2: Alexander "Eternal" S.'s Egyptian-themed (at least to start) tour de force may have some nasty moments, but the aesthetics are more than worth it. You can also play the first Epic, but it's only five maps, so I'm not sure how it would be covered unless you're open to minisodes and/or grab-bags of single and/or single-digit mapsets. 3: Whispers of Satan: Paul Corfiatis and Kristian Aro's hugest contribution (and their individual accomplishments are nothing to sneeze at), this classic-feeling megawad does start out slow but eventually opens up into a grand set of Hell levels that are worth sticking around for. Been awhile since I've played this one, but I recall finding it worthwhile. 4: Resurgence: I've no doubt you have Speed of Doom on your list, but I might argue this latter megawad from Joshy (which also won a Cacoward) is even better and no less brutal. I think map 31 might have broke me a bit (probably just due to me being a mediocre Doom player), but it's on Doomworld's top 100 maps list with good reason. 5 (and this is the most obscure of the bunch): 1994 Tune-up Community Project. I admit the project leader of this one is a great friend of mine, so I apologize for the bias, but I'm not expecting you to rate this one highly since it's a jumble of old Doom maps that were punched up in an attempt to be more palpable. Whether or not they are is up to you, but it IS at least an interesting idea for a Doom project that I'm not sure has been done elsewhere, so consider giving it a go and be as merciless as you like with it. Apologies for this mega-post, but I wouldn't have spent twenty minutes writing this up if I didn't really enjoy your work. After all, you finally motivated me to get around to Eviternity and I don't regret that in the least... although I don't think I liked Dehydration as much as you did, haha. But I digress again. Keep it up, Dean!

[@MtPain27]

Thanks for your recommendations, and the time you took to write them! Without giving too much away, most of these wads are on my list, with one of them coming up next: might not be what you expect.

[@ladymistdragon7287]

Seriously, though, Cybersky would be a great WAD to review as a minisode. It's made by the same guy as Epic (Eternal) so it's quite expansive with surprising amounts of detail. Also notable for having one of the highest monster counts of any user-made WAD up to that point (2009ish). Plus, it uses the awesome E1M1 track from Heretic as its theme!

[@DinnerForkTongue]

So would you say JPCP is better than Community Chest as a whole? Because I like Cchest... well, Cchest 3 and 4 at least. If it's worth my time, I'll download it for sure. BTW, from your very much correct mini-description of Ribbiks, I absolutely can't wait for you to review Sunlust. For me, it's the capstone of Doom level design and deserves to be used as a standard for wad comparisons. (Also it taught me that Chrono Cross has outstanding music.)

[@MtPain27]

I've only played CC2 and CC4, but I would say I enjoyed JPCP substantially more than both of them.

[@DinnerForkTongue]

@@MtPain27 Only 2 and 4? Unfortunate, because that means you missed CC3, that IMO is the very best overall and mostly in individual levels as well (Kassap's two maps notwithstanding). On the other hand, you don't lose *anything* by not knowing CC1, it's a very hard pass.

[@AdamM3377]

If you enjoy this wad, there are two wads comparable to this: Akeldama and Nova 3. Both came out recently as well. Akeldama has an interesting story and consistent map quality, and while Nova 3 has some hit-and-miss maps (being a community project), it also has some stellar and memorable maps. Nanka Kurashiki contributed to this wad as well.

[@jasonberezowski2869]

This project is something truly special. Most community packs without a set theme like this can be all over the place in terms of quality and consistency. Sure, those are issues that are still here in JPCP, and yet... there is something undefinably charming about what was compiled here. There are spots in this megawad that it barely even seems like youre playing doom anymore, and there are also portions that are just purely solid Doom gameplay. Then there are Tooasty's maps. I have no idea what they were trying to achieve, but it is clear to me that they achieved it. Completely confounding and nonsensical, and yet I just... like it? It's a disorienting trip through environments that can't or shouldn't exist, and every new corridor or room is a complete surprise. There is no possible way to predict what comes next while you're playing them. The Dean said it best, these aren't maps, they're modern art.

Nice! I do have some recommendations for the next wads should play. You should probably covered Hell-Revealed. I'm surprised you haven't covered it yet, but I think it would make a good special, like how you reviewed Doom 2. Make it Episode 20 There is also Doom: The Way Id did it, and Doom 2: The Way Id did it (DTWID for short). It might be the first two parter videoes on the series, because even though they are meant for Doom 1 and Doom 2 respectably, they were made in the same way and resigned all the levels in their games. I think you should download their Midi tracks to, atleast for Doom 1's version(I haven't found a custom trackset from D2TWID yet). The versions I played just had the Original music. Doom 2: Reloaded is a good alternative for DTWID as well. There is also Plutonia 2 and TNT: Revilution if you want something like DTWID and Reloaded, but for, you know. But my most recommended wad to you is Unloved. Very interesting set of levels. Has a horror theme to it and a hub map. Can be somewhat compared to Silent Hill and other horror games. Doesn't change the gameplay of Doom much. It has less maps then other wads on this show, but you should go check it out regardless. But these are just my recommendations. I just hope you enjoy them!

Hilarious coincidence there's two back to back wads with final fantasy music LMAO Map 26's use of "The Legendary Beast" from Final Fantasy 8 is masterful; in ff8 it was used as one of the four final boss themes, when the second boss uses its ultimate attack; however it's also set to use this attack if it were to die and hasn't used it at all yet; this means most players probably only ever heard the first 20 or so seconds, and it's a damn shame because the song is so dramatic the further in you get. Glad to see map 26 used a midi version of it, and it seemed to have fit in expertly.

Are you planning to do TCs in the future? I want to see your take on Pirate Doom.

54-PIT is most likely a Japanese number pun/wordplay (goroawase). I can't think of any meaning using just the 54 but it may be a pun when combined with Pit. Perhaps the map creator has made notes or comments about it.

Only 8 maps in so far but absolutely love both Toooooasty's maps especially map 8. Okay just finished, great wad cant imagine what it would be without Toooooasty, burabojunior and Nanka Kurashiki. Not to make light of the other contributors but those three delivered many maps all of which i enjoyed greatly without fail. Toooooasty especially blew me away with insanely creative intricately detailed maps(even if the combat in some is a little lacking).

I always assumed Tatsurd made levels for this, but I guess I was wrong. My memory is hazy at times with some WADs. Have you thought of reviewing the Memento Mori WADs and their sequel Requiem? While there are better WADs out there today, those 3 have a special place in my heart as they were the first megaWADs I ever played through.

This aged VERY nicely.

Is map 32 really just payday's "first world bank" but in doom?, The secret gold loot vault seems oddly reminiscent of the overdrill secret and the overall structure of the level is almost identical to the heist itself
