It's a shame we don't get updated sequels to Heretic/Hexen... or Quake, for that matter.
I have fond memories of Hexen. But most of those are overridden by it being the unfortunate game where I finally realized that first person games make me motion sick.
"Oof, I don't feel so hot. Let me keep playing to keep my mind off of it. Maybe a bite to eat. Back to the game, I'm fine, I'm fine, I'm..." running to the bathroom and honking up everything I just ate and then some until I'm dry-heaving. I didn't eat hot dogs for a good five years after that.
A buddy of mine wasn't sure if it was FPS's that made him motion sick.
I introduced him to Descent.
He had to go have a lie down.
All these Doom sequels... a proper Descent would kick ass
