Legend:Farewell Edition is a heavily modified upgrade-remake of Hexen in a classic style, but with a darker and a much more aggressive atmosphere. Featuring almost twice the length of the game, revised and extended levels, more decorations, precision-refined gothic design, new weapons, enemies and effects, 6 characters, plenty of secret areas and even an expanded storyline with custom-made story arcs and endings for the DLC heroes. More action, more locations, more magic, more HEXEN!

Voted for this as mod of the year. Thank you.
Wow...you caught me speechless. I thank you for the honor and the gesture. I really wish i could release version 0.6 right now. That would substantiate such claim much, much better. Unfortunately, there are still ways to go. Not too long, but not something that can be finished in less than 2 weeks. The ambition is there though. I firmly stand by the promise i made to deliver the ultimate Hexen adventure in the form of Legend-9.
Over a year ago, in response to your comment (which is still there, on the main page) i said something like "unfortunately Legend is at the bottom of my top 10", well, i am glad to realize that as the project slowly but surely takes the intended shape - that conclusion is no longer true. Version 0.6 will be the definitive step forward that the mod really needs to make a solid statement.
I'm yet to fully appreciate the full extent of the mod that you have created. At this point, I would say that it looks very promising, and I really appreciate your work. I would also like to recommend that you take a look at the Serpent Resurrection mod (available here at moddb at Moddb.com ). It also aims to create a wholly new gameplay experience on top of existing Hexen concepts and datasets.
Thank you. Although, the mod is a work in progress so far, which is why i didn't make a big deal out of the interim beta 0.4 release. I am being patient and working hard toward
the major launch of the version 0.6 - estimated to be this April. Now that one will have all the needed magic, battles and olschool eye-candy mystical worlds to make a proper dark fantasy statement.
As for the other Hexen mods...unfortunately, the state of
Hexen mod scene leaves me sadly disappointed. It is also a part of the reason why i push myself to the maximum with Legend-9. There are only two Hexen mods that i was ever impressed by: Shadows of Cronos and Faiththless Trilogy. Both of these have inspired and affected my creative approach greatly. Even though the latter is technically not a Hexen mod, but it plays like Hexen, or more precisely - what Hexen should've been from the get go. Hence i consider it as such.
Will you make a gzdoom version? I really want to try this mod it looks fun
I would like for that to happen one day :-) I definitely realize the importance of that and the reach it would have. But first, i would need to finish THIS version, and that's pretty far from being done, considering that i am only about half away to version 1.0. Secondly, i would have to acquire GZDoom knowledge on such an advanced scale (Legend9 is a very complex mod) - that i wouldn't even know where to begin digging for it. I worked with GZDoom very successfully on one very cool project, but it was on a far lesser technical degree. Finally, considering the number of other projects that i have, and other creative adventures i want to return to - i have absolutely no idea when, or even IF such a thing would ever happen at all. 5 years? 10 years? Never? I just don't know. One thing is certain: nowhere in the foreseeable future. I wouldn't mind if some other enthusiast helped with such conversion, someone with enough passion for the game (that being Legend9, NOT Hexen per se) and enough knowledge of GZDoom on a required level.
So there you go. As complete an answer as it gets :-) .
