Proper download link

Migrate existing configuration
"GZDoom found a user specific config in the game folder"
and these are my options:
-> Move to Users/ folder
-> Convert to portable installation
-> Cancel

I've never ever gotten something like this for any other Doom mod, so really confused here. I don't wanna fuck something up, so if anyone can explain what it's trying to do, I'd appreciate it!

Just grab the .pk3 file and drag and drop it on top of your existing GZDoom install. Don't need to use the bundled GZDoom that came with the TCOTD2 ZIP file.

1) The atmosphere is amazing guys; great job there!
2) The map design and exploration were also good. I had a fun time looking around everywhere for goodies and secrets and clues on what to do next, and the placement of enemies and ammo and health all felt just right.
3) The gameplay was also great; the hp & dmg of monsters, the player's weapons, the pacing, the build-up of the use of moon shelters, it was all awesome!
4) Story was fine; wasn't anything super great or original for me, but certainly not bad! This is to be expected for a Doom mod focused on gameplay, though, so personally no problem there for me.
5) Music and sounds were all very effective! I'd say the only sound that stood out to me as rough-and-ready was the whisper sound effect, the one that's on the main menu; it sounded kinda amateur to me tbh.
6) And finally, the last boss; I beat it on the third try. I definitely see where people had a problem with it, especially on harder difficulties I can imagine, but I thought it was fine. His primary attack felt honestly kind of clever to me, because the cliche of many "big boss fights" basically involves the player strafing around it and spamming weapons until it dies. This one instead requires the player to finesse slight strafes and backpedals around the incoming projectiles, which felt like actual dodging to me rather than mindless running and I liked it. I'm not sure how much RNG is involved in the directions of its projectiles, but I had 5 large and 5 small health packs, so once I got the hang of it, a few hits here and there weren't really a problem for me.
