Doom 2: Sunder - Map 07: "Hollow Icon" (UV 100% no saves) Practice Runs

Some attempts for a saveless 100% Ultra Violence run of Sunder - Map07 "Hollow Icon".

Can't describe how much I love Sunder. Obviously the majority of the megawad is way too hard for my skill level to be completed saveless. But there are some "easier" levels (basically old Sunder which is map 01 - 14) that I will try to beat without any saves.

The megawad Sunder is known for insanely large levels (especially maps 15 - 21) which can take hours to beat. While being designed very artistically and visually appealing overall, most of the encounters in the levels take no prisoners. The fights are usually on a very huge scale (or combat puzzle focussed) and having just one attempt for everything in a row is pure masochism.

The reason I chose map 07 is because it has a good flow and difficulty curve while being not too unfair and the fights are spectacular enough for a good video :) I mean look at the final fight, very menacing. I still need to find a proper strategy for the last two fights (without save scumming through it) and maybe don't get killed by a very avoidable lost soul during the final fight (panic mode tho).

I used dsda as sourceport (complevel 9).
