	Heretic II for PC video game review and cheats
		Heretic II goes back to the original storyline and to the single main character, rather than the three separate character classes from the Hexen series.
		While some references are made to events from Hexen and Hexen II, Heretic II is definitely not a continuation of those games, but rather a true sequel to the original Heretic.
		Although Heretic II is based on the same engine as Quake II, there have been so many improvements added that the underlying engine is almost unrecognizable.

	Applelinks.com: Review - Hexen II and Heretic II
		In Hexen II, you play one of four character classes (although the only difference in game play is what weapons or spells you use) as a lone warrior trying to save the world from being overtaken by the last Serpent Rider, Eidolon.
		Heretic II is a third-person adventure game, where Corvus, a warrior-wizard, is trying to discover the cause of a plague that causes everyone who gets it to become an extremely violent zombie.
		Both Hexen II and Heretic II, however, were created when multiplayer was still something of a novelty, so there's more than enough "game" in the box.

	"HERETIC 2"/ a game review from Christian Spotlight
		While Lara seems to spend most of her adventures running around jumping from ledge to ledge and solving puzzles, Raven have taken Heretic II down a slightly different road turning it into an action-packed shoot-’em-up with a minimum of puzzle solving and some great lighting and water effects.
		After Heretic I and Hexen, Raven seem to have learned their lesson and done away with the tedious and sometimes confusing hub-based system and gone for a linear level design.
		Heretic II is by no means perfect - the most disappointing and perhaps frustrating aspect to the game being the whole multi-player experience.

		We'll be frank with you- when we got Raven Software's, (via publisher Activision), Heretic II in for review we weren't exactly jumping up and down with excitement.
		Of all the recent 3D shooters to hit the scene, Heretic II is perhaps one of the least publicized and hyped.
		To put it mildly, Heretic II is one of the most addictive, intuitive, attractive, innovative and downright entertaining 3D shooters to date (bar Half-Life).

		Next, the company commissioned a technology demo to ascertain whether or not it was possible to use the Quake II engine to build a third-person game with an intuitive camera.
		We didn’t get to the EAX one completed before the release dates were upon us, but with a lot of help from Micah Mason and Suneil at Aureal, we did get a 1.0 implementation of A3D in there.

	Heretic II - ESCMag Review
		The problem is, this time the Heretic might have to oppose a Seraph, one of the angelic beings who created and populated Parthoris.
		Levels are often organized around the Quake II hub format, with Corvus performing tasks within three or four levels at once, like when he must gather items from around the city of Andoria to try and concoct an antidote to the plague.
		Those nits aside, the good points overwhelming make Heretic II one of the most fun and satisfying shoot-‘em-up games of the year.

	Raven-Games.com - DooM Nexus Heretic II Review
		The gameplay in Heretic II can best be described as cautious exploration with periodic encounters with the denizens of the world and the occasional ambush thrown in.
		Regardless, to their credit the Heretic II team has managed to keep the levels straightforward while giving the impression of compexity.
		I would say that Heretic II is first a game of exploration, and second a game of combat.

	Inside Mac Games Review: Heretic II
		The original Heretic was a first-person shooter in the grand old Doom tradition, and its sequel, Hexen, followed along in the same style, but added some innovations of its own such as a 'hub' system of linked levels between which the player could move freely.
		In terms of its story, Heretic II does in fact follow on from Heretic; the Hexen games were in effect offshoots.
		But in Heretic II it is revealed that D'sparil cursed Corvus with his dying breath, condemning him to wander the Outer Worlds with no means of returning home to Parthoris.
