If you take out the puzzles, then it's not Hexen anymore.

how about putting REAL puzzles into some Hexen maps? You know, a level that is almost all puzzles, and levels that are actual slaughtermaps/defend the point maps?

Why did you get rid of the fists? They were only the most satisfying thing about the fighter. Also, the fighter's first two weapons were meant to be melee only as were most enemies until you get the Hammer. Besides the crossbow graphics from Heretic look awkward here.

I could enjoy a Brutal Hexen, but not at the expense of Brutal Doom. I'd personally much prefer your considerable skills spent on Doom.

Even if he doesn't finish it, I really do hope he releases what he's already done.

I think the Fists were cool when I have seen them when I played the game by the first time back in 2003. But now I think they are just an underpowered weapon which mechanics consists of holding the fire button while the enemy is dead (and it takes some time) and occasionally you must evade enemy attacks. The Axe and Shield are much more dynamic and powerful. And just like in Brutal Doom Universe it doesn't make sense an elite space marine have only a pistol instead of an assault rifle, I think in Brutal HeXen Universe it doesn't make sense an elite warrior having to fight with his bare hands instead of some bigger weapon.

I don't plan to spend more than one month working on this mod. In no way this is going to make me stop working on Brutal Doom.

I will release the first alpha when I finish all of Baratus weapons and all the early monsters

I thought someone mentioned making a Brutal Hexen quite some time ago. Probably me just imagining it to be honest but anyways I fully support the idea. I love Brutal Doom and would quite happily like too see Hexen get them same treatment or even Heretic.

Sadly that is currently not possible without the source code for the original game first of all. Two, if anyone is thinking porting "Brutal Blood" into ZDoom then I would say that I haven't really seen anyone done a proper conversion of Blood into the ZDoom engine since all previous attempts (ZBlood) are crap which I even doubt it's even possible. Three I've seen previous attempts of porting Blood into other engines but they're either in development hell (XL Blood) cancelled/post poned (Transfusion, C2G), or look like crap (ZBlood like I explained above, M210 Eduke32 Blood).

So in short, Brutal Blood is very unlikely at the moment.

Well, there's an eddited ZBlood wad without new weapons and monsters that works with Brutal Doom (a bit glitchy, but it works). That's the closest thing that you are ever going to see of a Brutal Blood.

...So don't change the gameplay, and instead make things that change the gameplay?

Levels are a part of gameplay, too, y'know.

Oh, yeah. I did never play Hexen until the end because it get a little boring after some time. Maybe a Brutal Hexen would fix it! :D
