This doesn't even feel like a mod, it is pretty much its own game with how long it tales to beat it and the mechanics in it.

Demon Throne is very well made in the gameplay design department. Wizards with rotary shields, Demons doing weird attacks that travel across the floor and throwing rocks at you, enemies that stomp you by jumping and even able to navigate more complex terrain.

It takes advantage as much as it can to make many different enemy types, some with their own quirks.

The RPG system is really cool, being able to rest and buy your ammo or upgrade stuff is a welcome addition to something as large as this.

I also enjoy the non-linear progression. There's a lot of exploration to be done.

Gunplay is great in that you get a crap ton of weapons to play around and use on hordes of enemies.

Level design is often creative and detailed. I love the upside down sections. Expansive levels allow for a lot of enemies and fights with high tier enemies. Cyberdemons are a regular occurrence. Some levels do lack detail however though that's a minor nitpick.

My only gripe would probably be with the very last fight, against the Archonitron. Him alone is mostly manageable, but he gets help and you get not enough items or ammo to deal with him, and it makes it an insanely tough fight. This fight broke me and I eventually said enough is enough and dnkroz my way through. Sorry Will and Dan but there's only so much punishment I can tolerate :(

Still, this is a big mod, so expect to sink a lot of hours into it, and I would highly recommend it for anyone who's a fan of Duke Nukem~
