Who cares? I don't. I think that a majority of the gaming public just 
like to complain about everything because they have no lives. Has there 
ever been a game released that someone hasn't pissed and moaned about 
because "there is no xxxxxx feature?" Sorry, but that's pretty damn lame 
that you think the game sucks because there is no co-op play. The game 
has many other redeeming qualities. The control is not as bad as everyone 
says, I believe that is has been improved somewhat in the actual retail 
version of the game. The graphics and sound effects are beautiful. I love 
that nasty "splitch" sound it makes when you hack into an enemy with a 
battle age. And the chunks of meat that fly and splatter on the walls when 
you slice into a bad guy is great. The introduction sequence is very well 
done, except for the bit of jerkiness 1/2 way through. I have a 
quad-speed CD and P133 and the intro is still slightly jerky. But that 
is a minor complaint. The rest of the game is great, and a lot of fun.

DUH! Use a joystick. And I don't think this game is a Doom clone, I wish 
people would stop saying this, as it has some feautres and additions that 
make it stand apart from Doom, most of which I have already mentioned 
(gothic, close-range weapons, role-playing elements, etc etc). Out of all 
the "Doom Toos" that are out right now, I think Witchaven is the most 
un-Doom-like of them all.
