Hexen 2 (Necromancer, Lich King Difficulty) Walkthrough (Part 28: Eidolon's Lair)

- This is a commentated playthrough of the game Hexen 2 by Raven Software, played through the FTEQW source port. I'll be playing as the Necromancer on the Lich King Difficulty. In this video, I play the twenty eighth part, which takes place in Eidolon's Lair.
NOTE: My version of FTEQW messed up the intermission message, so I had to re-render the video to get it read properly. This boss is also a bit strange on this port too. Oh well, I'll be using another port for the future. - Игры
Of course Eidolon is tough - he is the oldest and most powerful of the Serpent Riders. I wish this series could be revived in some way - either with a sequel or reboot.
Well done, Necromancer. Now you are the greatest evil in this world. Hope you're happy with yourself ;)
honestly, a remake of sorts of the serpent riders trilogy would be really great, i'd happily pay 60$ dollars for that
too bad raven has been stuck in the CoD machine for a while now,,
The Heretic/Hexen series has a weird rights status: development rights are held by id Software (now owned by Microsoft), publishing rights are held by Raven Software (owned by Activision) .
So in order to reboot the franchise, id Software and Raven Software will need to grant a licence (together)
@@electricdragon9366 A legal quagmire. This is why Commander Keen 6 isn't sold anywhere nowadays - it's in a similar situation where rights are held by different companies, some of which have long ceased to exist.
There is a game called Graven which is still under development and is meant as spiritual successor to Hexen series (though it's gonna lean heavier into immersive sim territory)
Hey cool, glad to hear you're doing the expansion! I didn't even know Hexen 2 got an expansion, so it'll be something all new for me.
I knew Portal of Praevus existed, but never played it or seen it played. It'll be all-new for me too.
17 years ago when i fought eideon after a painstaking playthrough, i was so frustrated with him instagibbing me with the lightning that i had to use the cheat codes after like 2 hours
Yess more Hexen. I’m happy to hear that your doing the expansions. Awesome boss battle
Oh hey, who woulda thought the PsychoPhobia Episode 2 boss would be in this game? Crazy!
;-P
Well that's why you saved all those Icons. Damn good reason too. I remember struggling to kill him as the Necromancer, but the Crusader and Paladin mopped the floor with his big red ass.
This LP serves as a PSA to everyone out there: _never_ use FTEQW if you want to have fun in Hexen II, or at least not this version that Dwars used.
So is Dwars going to once again play the Cleric-analogue, or will we get to see him choose a more svelte, seductive form to unleash his evil? And more important, how is his falsetto?
It better be, if he wants to be the She-Bitch. 😈
The expansion is my favourite episode of Hexen II
Excellent! A+ map!
Cool Battle xD!
That source port may have failed throughout but it did a GREAT job with Eidolon and all his attacks.
Interesting, I don't rememeber having much difficulties on this fight, except the good, old instakill lightning. Well, I was paladin and on medium skill, so it mostly explains it. Also, I was totally expecting chaos sphere- telefrag cheese as you did cheese heresiarch ahrd on hexen 1.
I managed to beat this game once as a teen with the help of a walkthru, but I didn't hear about the expansion until very recently (I thought the demoness was a mod class originally!) so I'm looking forward to you playing it through.
As the Necromancer again or?
They didn't make Hexen 3 because the next final boss would need to have 3x the HPs of the previous one ;)
You may have mentioned this already, but what was the reason you used FTEQW over Hammer of Thyrion?
Higher framerate, prettier lights, some more aesthetical options. Let this be a lesson to me that graphics aren't everything.
@@Dwars Ah, the allure of a shiny. Got you like a magpie with a coin.
@@Dwars As I always say - slapping modern effects on top of an old game usually makes it worse (even without considering the bugs).
are u planning to use the demoness in the next series?
Yes! Eidolon’s spawn must rise!
