Faithless is one of the best Heretic mods ever. It's like a mash-up of all the best bits of Heretic and Hexen with all the bad stuff trimmed out. Complex interconnected hubs but it shows/nudges you in the right direction when you hit the switch to progress.

After 1.5 years since release candidate 1, here is RC2 of Faithless: Trilogy! We're so close to finalisation. Comes with no new level(s) like I promised, but tons of changes which should heighten and smooth out the overall gameplay experience. Please report any problems you may find! Link ⬇

I would like to dedicate my work on SIGIL and SIGIL II to the late Robert Caskin Prince III. 💐 Without his OST for Doom, I doubt I'd be here - and it was his style I took the deepest inspiration from in order to create SIGIL II's bespoke soundtracks. Thank you for the music, Bobby. RIP. 🙏

Hey, somebody got Hexen in my Heretic! ... Tasty! Today, I'm playing through the Faithless trilogy. This time, I'm doing it all vanilla. I really wanted to go through with Walpurgis, but Faithless' custom monsters, weapons, and items didn't get along with it. #Doom #DoomMod #Heretic #Faithless
Anybody who knows me well enough knows I like Hexen way more than Heretic.  I love the hub system, I love the player classes, I love the enemy and item variety... I know it's not the greatest game, and it's certainly not as good as Heretic... but I like it more, so there.
So having a mod for Heretic that introduces some of these elements in a fun way tickles that part of my brain that wants an FPS RPG action adventure game!
I particularly love the hub system.  Just like Hexen, really!  Each chapter of the Faithless trilogy is basically a single big level with all 9 maps accessible via unlockable portals.  Episode 1 Faithless contains the entirety of E1M1 through E1M9, Episode 2 Merciless is E2M1 through E2M9, and Episode 3 Soulless is E3M1 through E3M9.  Plus I'm told there's a super-secret level hidden somewhere among them!
I wanted to take a moment to admire the view from E1's hub, the docks of Port Mercy.  It's Heretic, so you have to start the game at the docks.  It's a rule!If there's one thing Heretic did better than Doom, it's the Chainsaw.  The Gauntlets of the Necromancer just feel more powerful than Doom 2's Chainsaw for some reason, and seem to stun enemies more often.  Damn near feels as flawlessly perfect as Doom 64's Chainsaw.  WHICH IS THE BEST CHAINSAW IN DOOM, FIGHT ME.
Plus, slap a Tome of Power on these sumbitches, and now you leech health.  Stun-chance failed?  Doesn't matter, you're healing anyway!
I mentioned in a previous post I'm disappointed by Heretic's arsenal since some of the weapons are too similar to Doom's, but that kind of doesn't do it justice, because Heretic's weapons are honestly GREAT.  Stand-out favorites include the Gauntlets here, as well as the Ethereal Crossbow, and the Hell Staff. ... wow, that's a bad screenshot... kinda hard to tell what the hell is going on here, isn't it?
... 
Welp!  Moving on!For those whom tried Hexen and didn't like it for all of the labyrinthine maps and obtuse switch-hunting, and much prefer Heretic's level design over it, I've got good news for you.  Faithless' level design is SIGNIFICANTLY LESS labyrinthine, and the switch-hunting is honestly a lot better.  I still like Hexen more, but just Episode 1 alone is so much better designed that it kind of hurts to admit.  Though, I will say many of the secrets are much harder to find.
I'm honestly pretty bad at finding secrets in most Doom Clones ( these days referred to as Boomer Shooters ).  Doom, Heretic, Duke Nukem, Blood, Shadow Warrior, Ion Fury, Amid Evil, you name it.  I've never found 100% of secrets in ANY of these games, their expansions, OR any fan-made megawads.  Seriously, I'm terrible at finding secrets.  I had to look up how to find the secret level here because I was searching for a good two hours before giving up and opening the Walkthrough file the mod's creator so graciously provided.
THANK YOU, JAMES PADDOCK!!
