Hexen: Beyond Heretic

Hexen: Beyond Heretic

Do we want a new Hexen game?
considering that Raven Software is owned by Activision, and the fact that the publisher's flagship FPS has definitely influenced non-Call of Duty shooters owned by Activision, do we really want a reboot of the franchise?

why not just rebuild hexen in the hexen 2 engine? ground up? and to also state ive been waiting for a heretic remake or a hexen remake, if quake got champions, id like to see heretic and hexen in that engine, even though it just reminds me over quake 3 arena engine with higher res textures and more complex models.
its not like you couldnt just add new library definitions in the quake engine and "beef" it up to allow for more "modern' 'calls". if you can do that you can re render at higher resoltion and draw more complex objects. im surprised no one has even bothered to just hexen 2; hexen.

again, hexen and heretic are quite different birds from quake. their selling points was quite different. heretic/hexen project was clearly more fantasy oriented (these games even have real protagonists and villains (characters!)!), while quake/doom was all about pure action. one of the reasons why hexen II was being criticised back then was that it's on quake engine...

I'm also a big first Hexen fan, much more than Heretic and Doom, even if these were awesome too.
Since in these long years of waiting we are not seeing any decent inspired-game or a sequel/reboot, except from Dark Messiah that I loved so much (Hexen edge of chaos mod is on hold, Hellraid is on hold, Vermintide was fine but not my ideal type of game) I just can only suggest to have a look at this! seems promising.

Looks good! Though I'm not a fan of the chaingun-like weapon since... well it resembles an actual chaingun for some reason.

welp, they say it's in alpha state. and judging from gameplay videos, it's true. yet, preset release date is end of 2017?

sorry, but so far it smells of rushed indie product.

Looks better than some non-rushed non-indie products though.

Over two decades have passed since Hexen was made so there's little hope of a direct sequel ever being made. All the designers from Raven that contributed to the distinct look and feel of this universe have probably moved on to bigger and better things elsewhere. Personally, I would love to see either a sequel or a modern reimagining of Heretic/Hexen. Or at the very least a Dark Fantasy FPS inspired by the series. Realistically, it would be an expensive and risky game for any studio to develop. The kinds of FPS that tend to sell millions of copies are either Modern Warfare or Sci-Fi. Medieval and Fantasy settings tend to attract more players of RPGs/MMORPGs. I'd be glad to see that trend bucked by a fresh take on this genre.

As i have said earlier in this post, I still can't help but think that Raven Software's lack of humanity would leave us with a modern military FPS where magical attacks are consumables similar to grenades, most enemies use assault rifles on you and the enemies that actually belong in a Hexen game are relegated to QTEs and stationary turret sections

Aside from the classic enemies being relegated to QTEs and stationary turret sections, this might actually be something that gets me to play a modern military FPS in the first place.

Just not as a Hexen game.

Raven software is still a good team, they contiued developing good games with nice environment and atmosphere, such as the 2009 wolfenstein wich imho is very underrated, I believe they would like to do a Hexen remake or similar , the problem si Activision own its rights, so it's up to them.

they used to have these 2 faces from the start. see "take no prisoners" or "magestayer", totally casual and arcade-ish experience. although both games had unique atmosphere...

Fresh new trailer, last one was of an outdated build

Yeah okay.
I'm still not a fan of the spinny chaingun-ish weapon.
But this game is now on my must-buy list.
