It's a nice concept, but the map is just outdated. I could've seen this being a big thing a few years back, but it just feels too simplistic. It's fun... yeah. but it's too quick. I could make something like this quickly, and it plays quickly. The "find the pressure plate" level concept has been seen so much, and it feels bland by now. The parkour was too easy, and the maze isn't hard. The map has no challenge. And once it's over, it's over. No extra content, no big rush, it's just gone. I'd really like to say that you, at least, tried to deal with constructive criticism, but it appears you have no respect if your map gets anything wrong. That's the point of a review. It tells you what you did wrong. You can improve on it. Also, you keep bumping your thread almost daily, which gets really annoying to people who posted on the thread. Honestly, it makes you seem kinda out-of-place, seeing almost an entire page of you posting things unrelated to the map.
TL;DR- Deal with criticism. Nobody said map-making was full of praise. Your map was a good effort, but it's no masterpiece. It's far from it, actually.
And to prematurely address your concerns:
A.) Unsubscribing from a thread is confusing to a new minecraftforums user. Not many know how to do it.
B.) No, I will not make a map of this quality within a given time. I could, but I have better things to do.
C.) I will not respond unless you respond to me maturely, and without acting childish. PM if you really have beef with me.

EDIT: And yes, I know that many enjoyed this map. But from someone who doesn't have a youtube account, and just wants to play a good map, this just isn't for that type of person. And no, I don't HATE the map. In fact, a few parts of it were pretty good, and the whole experience was a decent walk-through, albeit being short. It just isn't the type of map you credit it as.
Hey, three_two! Don't mean to make this question intrusive or anything, but can we expect VFIII to be close to completion or done by early 2016? Just a little question.
Also, I loved Eventide Trance. The terrain, man. IT'S AWESOME!
Eeriewolf, those areas looked really cool, wow. I used to be a lot more into CTMs, made a whole bunch of really nice map ideas, but then my hard drive messed up, nothing i could do about it. but I'm working on something now, it seems to be a lot better than what I had before.
Holy. Cow. Been playing for about 7 attempts and still keep dying on second area.
This one's very interesting though. Maybe one day I'll manage to beat it. I'll definitely give it more than one go at it tomorrow, and upload at least one youtube video of the map. The_Sketch is one great mapmaker, I can say that for sure. Everyone should give this map a try.

Streaming The Painter, stream might be laggy, not sure.
Come watch me!
EDIT: Stream was too laggy, bad timing. So, I ended it. Sorry, all! I'll try again tomorrow!

What is an underrated CTM map (i.e not mentioned often) that you feel is amazing.
