I know alot of people who played Hexen and went back to Doom after getting bored by Hexen. The hand to hand combat system is very poor & unrealistic. If the monsters actually fought with some intelligence & the players had different moves, instead of hack hack hack hack hack it would be another story entirely. Have like about 3 keys for varying attacks and a defence key, plus the game can insert special lucky shots & finishing moves at certain times. Take a combat system like FX-Fighter's and apply to a 3-d game w/ weapons. There should also be some genuine magic as well. The classes should be more distinct. As for the monsters, haven't seen many that look all that frightening in the current crop of fantasy-based 3-d games. One thing though, Hexen had the best overall atmosphere out of pretty much any 3-d game so far. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ + Send $5 to st...@escape.com for complete signature + ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Disclaimer: I am sovereign entity on the world-wide network known as the internet.
