Game-Over heeft een review gepost van Raven's Heretic II:
Over the past couple of years since the release of Tombraider, the game market has been crowded with 3rd person trash. Due to the overwhelming popularity of Tombraider, the 3rd person camera angle has been blatantly exploited by developers with no talent who are all well known for skimping out on gameplay and going for beautiful babes in tank tops. Deviating from the normal first person clone, Raven Software opted to use a 3rd person camera angle that suits the game perfectly. Heretic 2 is by far is one of the best 3rd Person games I have played this year. The Gamplay is far superior to Tombraider and also has a deeper atmosphere where you actually find yourself engulfed in the story.You assume the role of Corvus, slayer of the Serpent Riders. After a long post-heretic vacation you are back once again to save the citizens who are up against a magical force. Upon beginning the game in your home town of Silverspring, you notice something is wrong with your people. They seem to be dying rather quickly and even turning into bloodthirsty monsters. To get a solution you head towards Andoria to receive a cure from a healer. After three hours of gameplay just to reach Andoria you learn the story only begins here...
