Ionous is a solid mapper and I love long Quake maps, so I had high expectations with this one.
I think it’s a super cool map. It took me about 45mn to simply finish + one hour to more or less 100%.
The map is very atmospheric, not too big (while still being huge), secrets are pretty well hidden, but there are hints so not too cryptic either, which is good.
Combat-wise, fun at first but can become a bit repetitive/grindy after a while, albeit it is expected in long Quake maps like this.
All in all, an awesome, well-designed map - 4.5/5!

This was an epic gibfest to be sure! Played on skill 2 and ended up with 17/21 and 764/815, so I need to go back and do some cleanup 
Totally enjoyable, although I got off the track a couple of times, but that’s the fun of playing a huge, non-linear map like this one.
I certainly enjoyed the music. Very atmospheric and perfect for this map.
Thank you for the hard work and for sharing with us!
What a fantastic map - no big surprise from Ionous. I need to play it again as I’d like to get to the other tower and find at least 50% secrets!

An overscaled mess of a map that somehow manages the rare distinction of making Quake’s combat feel about as interesting as a data entry job at a drywall manufacturing company, or perhaps something that approaches the thrills of putting out the garbage when you live on the top floor of a high-rise flat.
I never want to see another fucking scrag again for as long as I live.
When they say “eldritch” or “lovecraftian” I imagine environments like that. Unwelcome. Hostile. And gargantuan in proportions, when you feel small & even smaller. Well it’s not the best Ionous map (Magna, Aspera & Roba are my personal favourites), but it’s definetly a must-play. Secrets make it unique - actually unique Ionous style when the most interesting parts of a map are hidden in secret. Also I’d say it could benefit if mr. Noel Lacaillade could use this 64u version as 1 stage and next add nice detailing & some other “farts & whistles” - it’s a lilbit unfinished visually
THANKS and kudos to Ionous
