.....I played it again. I hate this WAD but I PLAYED IT AGAIN. My brother wanted to do this thing where we played a level each day to see if that made it more tolerable.
Spoiler alert: it didn't. Why do I do this to myself.

Played through with a weapons mod called "Final Doomer +". Pretty much all my issues with TNT are the same but I would like to take this review to say that the mod is super awesome. Not only are the weapons super fun to use but a ton of care has been put into making them useful for this WAD specifically and made the whole thing way more fun. They can't fix the inherent problems with TNT but they definitely mitigate them, and the fact that they can be used on literally any WAD afaik just makes it even cooler. It's got weapons designed for 9 different WADs actually so there's tons to test out.
They took a game with an amazing enemy roster, and decided to use nothing but imps and gunners for 70% of it. The rest is just a bunch of long maze levels where you run around in circles. The new music is dope, but it's way louder than the rest of the game for some reason. Some of the visuals are kinda cute, like the way they try to make offices and whatnot, but it's a small joy in what's otherwise a giant slog.
