Hexen: Beyond Heretic

Hexen: Beyond Heretic

Should I buy?
This game looks very fun, but I am scared because this is a older game so the gameplay will be very outdated? I am not sure I will enjoy it too. I have played the first doom and I thought it was only okay because it was very outdated

It's a gem who has one of the best level design ever, you don't find this kind of level design nowadays but it works with class, if you search a game like doom with a lot of weapons, you could be bored.
Also, there is a lot of puzzle, i like it because you need to use your brain, be sure because it's a game who is a fps about exploration and dark fantasy. Not like the gameplay of doom.
You can download zandronum or gzdoom port to use it (with the hexe.wad file). There is some tutorial on internet, it makes the game really better to play with options and good render.

This game is brilliant if graphics aren't the main factor for you. It looks awesome when you look at the year it was released in. Gameplay isn't so easy as in Doom. You have to solve many hard "riddles" I mean find things like keys and push levers and stuff , figure things out. If you won't watch youtube walkthroughs, you will get hours of endless fun and sometimes desperation because you won't know what to do :rage: that motivates you to play even more. This is the best game imo from all of those like doom , heretic etc. Amazing spooky atmosphere, unique enemies, sounds, map designs.... I could write a fooken book about it :yazdwink:

The only things you need is "Zdoom". After you buy and download the game, just put all files from Zdoom folder (you can download it on Zdoom site) and put all those files in game folder (C:\Steam\steamapps\common\Hexen\base). Then just remove (or remove+backup) Dosbox.exe, and rename Zdoom.exe to Dosbox.exe. That makes Steam thing you play Dosbox but you actually play Zdoom.Then, when you launch Hexen through Steam, it will simply launch as "Zdoom version". You can even use mouse in menu in that (couldn't in original game) and more settings to adjust.

maan get it it's the best ♥♥♥♥ from 90's 1st person gamez :skullz: :skullz:
