| Reviewer | AMmayhem | Awe Score: | 0.5/3 | Date | 09-25-2003 | Build Score: | 0.5/3 | Review Schema | Cast Score: | 0.5/3 | User Point: | +1 | Overall Score: | 2.5/10 |
AWE: 0.5 Architecture is, well, there's a nice chandelier... Other than that, not much. There's a Nali crucified upside-down, and a couple others over burning lava (pic 2). Tight halls, steep stairways, blocky rooms, etc. Lighting is a little better, at least it's not evenly lit. The author does add some coloring for the flames, and there are some ok shadows. And the texturing needs a lot of work. At least the textures are on their respective surfaces, brick walls, patterned cielings, and a redundant rug texture for the floor...
BUILD: 0.5 Brush-work is sloppy, brushes aren't aligned. Not much anything else.
CAST: 0.5 There are pathnodes, so the bots do get through the map. Item placement is ok considering the rest of the map. Flow isn't very good, just a back-and-forth flow really. The gameplay isn't that fun either.
SCORE: 1 Hmm, 10 minutes to type this review, though I was interupted a couple times... I tried to keep it short, and let the screenies do the work, as many of you would rather have it. ;-) |

| Claw 09-26-2003 05:14 AM MDT | Rating: 2 | | I think it does deserve 0.5 for build. That's not alot, but I have seen worse brushwork, the zero, as usual, is a special case for me.
| AMmayhem 09-26-2003 08:41 AM MDT | Rating: 2 | | Whoops, I was going to add that 0.5 on the Build score before I posted it, I forgot... :-/ It's fixed now.
The flow and playing space is the worst downfall on this map.
| The_Real_Meneer_Aard 09-26-2003 08:45 AM MDT | Rating: 2 | | I think the idea is nice but it needs a LOT of work to be done. Redo the lighting, and think of some more deco in it. (Try to make no area of a map look like a cube).
For now it sucks, but i encourage the author to spend 3 more weeks on it and we might end up with a much better map
Remind that mapping isnt that hard. If i can map a little, everyone should be able to do so.

| Twrecks 10-05-2003 02:45 AM MDT | Rating: 1 | | A 0.5 for effort. Not worth "fixing up". Starting fresh is the best course of action here folks. BTW, I know I've reviewed this map before. Luquado deleted all the sub 3 reviews way back when and left the bad maps to fester. Pity, them were good reviews. EDIT: Turns out Q also reviewed this map in one of his generous moods http://www.west.net/~furkids/NaliCity/dm-druidworks.htm
