In addition, each enemy has distinct taunts that they will use to antagonize Corvus. Luckily, the death animations of the enemies are particular gruesome. When hit with a powerful spell, bodies can explode all over the ceiling and the remains continue to drip down to the floor below. Raven has provided an option to turn down the violence for the weaker of heart. Heretic 2 challenges Corvus with no less than 22 enemies, all animated robustly.
Enemies offer a myriad of behavioral characteristics.
Some enemies will fight to the death and be very aggressive while others may display the traits of a coward. Rats may feed off of a nearby dead body instead of generically attacking you. It is also possible to stir up a group of monsters and retreat to a safe distance and watch them fight it out. In addition, many levels offer bosses that must be defeated in order for Corvus to continue his quest. Without spoiling anything, I would like to note that the final boss is very memorable and requires more skill than just mindlessly blasting away.
