There's an option to improve the levels with less obscure puzzles/switch hunting. That alone is worth the remaster, especially for Hexen.

Heretic was the first game I ever played - I was about 3 years old - I took care of the shooting (often while hiding under the desk) while dad navigated. Heretic has been one of my core memories my entire life and is incredibly dear to me. I've reflected on Heretic and replayed it countless times - I even made a short film on it back in high school; but not once did I expect to see it brought back to life - especially not 31 years later. This is an exceptionally special release for me, and I was cautious as I expected the modifications may not meet my expectations, but upon playing, I was utterly mind blown by how well the new content fits into the original theme of the game! All the changes I've seen so far are subtle and tastefully done, and the new levels are beautifully crafted and fit right in. I'm so pleased that there are 4 versions of the soundtrack - it's not just the original VS remaster. Overall I'm totally impressed by your efforts, and am so grateful for the care you took to restore a game so sentimental to me. Thank you!! <3

A+ work here. That I got the remasters for free for already owning the originals? Icing on the cake.

People will say MODS can do all of this already, but that's not the point, this allows those who do not have time or experience, or those on console to play a classic game which is easily one of my fav games of all time. So yeah, the more people that can play Hexen without screwing around with engines/mods the better.

Games got the Doom 1+2 treatment! Got them for free as I had the original Heretic and Hexen on Steam. Played a bit of the new episodes, everything works great. I'm glad I don't have to mess with sourceports anymore!
