What is Heretic?
Heretic is a game developed by Raven Software back in 1995 using id Software’s Doom 3D engine. Raven took the revolutionary game, Doom, and gave it a medieval setting thus Heretic was born. Heretic II is, suprisingly, the sequal but this time Raven is using third-person perspective and the Quake II 3D engine to deliver stunning worlds in which you fight for survival. Raven has a respectable game list behind them: Shadowcaster, CyClones, Heretic, Hexen, Hexen II, Necrodome, Take No Prisoners, MageSlayer and Black Crypt. Raven Software is based in Madison, WI.
