Why is Raven Software going back to Heretic after Hexen II?
The Serpent Riders trilogy is played out. In Heretic, Hexen and Hexen II you do battle with one of the three Riders and all three lay dead now. Despite this fact, Raven Software wanted to provide the players with an exciting action game based on a good plot. Raven never did tell whatever happened to Corvus after he battled in “Heretic: Shadow of the Serpent Riders” addon pack for Heretic. Heretic II is that story, the tale of Corvus as he gets back to his home and finding it’s not what it used to be. Hexen is set 1.000 years after Heretic (and Heretic II) so, effectively, while you play Heretic II the other two Serpent Riders are still alive but they will meet their doom in a thousand years…
