Heretic + Hexen: Heretic - The Stagnant Demesne (Part 1/2) - 100% on hardest - Achievements 18/44
1(Links, achievements and secrets at the bottom of the description)
Hello!
NOTE: E5M1 currently has an impossible secret in it, which actually, doesn't even exist!
I would've mentioned it in the title, but there's not enough space to add anything into it.
It's still practically 100%, so don't worry about it!
In this one:
We get no new achievements
We play Episode 5: The Stagnant Demesne
• Maps E5M1-E5M3, E5M9 (Secret) and E5M4
Another long one, but we get the job done, as usual. There are some changes here and there:
Some changes improve the visuals a little by adding some detail or even change some gameplay parts, but not everyone has liked these changes.
E5M3 had an unexpected bridge puzzle, although it was easy to crack.
_ _ _
I don't mind changes, as long as things work and are tested...
...but that's not always the case, as it became apparent from the start:
• In E5M1, the secret sector has been prettied-up with an additional sector, where the water goes deeper into the mountain...
...However by doing so, they've duplicated the secret sector into two to make this space, but they never removed the secret tag from the 2nd sector.
In short: The 2nd secret is not supposed to exist, so true count would be just at 1!
• Also in E5M1, 4 of the knight platforms move early in some cases and upon springing the trap at Crossbow, their floor level remains way too low. Player can only kill them with Phoenix Rod's splash damage.
(Player can also get stuck, if falling into the hole.)
• In E5M2, missing texture at water steps next to exit.
(Possibly a step, that didn't raise, as intended.)
• In E5M3, it's possible to get stuck by falling behind barrels, where you'd normally run over them.
(Found on the right side.)
• In E5M9, there's a double Quartz Flask placement.
_ _ _
In any case, 2nd part left to do of Episode 5, and then it'll be some new Heretic-stuff!
