It's not for me, but it must be doing something right because some people seem very fond of it.

i played the game and its kinda cool.

I always get it confused with heretic for some reason. I own the one where you start with the little wand peashooter and fight red flying monsters.

Well, Hexen is a sequel to Heretic, the full title is even Hexen : Beyond Heretic

Which one is the one where level 1 is an open area with water and a bridge? I own it but the sound doesn’t work on my pc.

I don't agree, but I'd like to hear why.

Honestly, Eternal Doom is a lot worse about this.

You're thinking of Heretic.

>>9723740
Kinda, but the only real connection are the villains and thus some of the monsters. I don't thing Silverspring (or Corvus, for that matter) are even mentioned in Hexen. Parthoris gets mentioned because it was the target of a prior invasion, I think, but that's it.

Yep my favorite Doom clone after Heretic.

>> No.9725691

Are there any online heretic or Hexen themed servers on whatever doom client people use today?

I like it, in that I dig the aesthetic and the combat because it's edgier Heretic, but man do the puzzles get tiresome after a while. I got really far into the N64 port at one point.

The puzzles get too tedious and bog down the gameplay. Heretic is more fun imo.
