Reever: Google didn't help? Should have asked on a manga forum then :P

P1na: Yeah, well, you could say I did. I asked one of the biggest posters here, and while he didn't know the chapter, he did have enough clues to lead me to a date and from there to a chapter. But I still spent some time re-reading before I resorted to that.
Okay then :) Hopefully the manga will get a spin-off, I remember it had quite the open end.

Tranquil.Suit: Funny how in your condescending reply you make an assumption of my age. Let's be objective here, it sucked BADLY because of gameplay (bland everything) and mechanics (gamebreaking bugs). What makes it "historic", was the high expectancy and the raised profile, before any specifics of the game were even known, followed by... well, the end result.

Buenro-games: It did not sorry, it did not. It never did. No matter how much you want to compare the games that existed then to this, it never was a laggard. It was just non original and redundant and when you add the bad marketing, it was doomed.

Sorry, but quit acting as if you were there and saw the whole disaster that Daikatana was.
Ah, so it was bland? OK. Also, it was broken. You can admit that, can't you?

Better finished than infinitely prolongued, if you ask me. Things get stupid when they keep stretching stories.

But infinitely prolongued isn't the same as having a good, satisfying ending which brings all plotlines together ;) (but don't ask me which now, read the manga 2 years ago and forgot the details :P)

We're talking science fiction now?

I stopped hoping for such endings a long time ago. Nowadays, I just hope for the ride to be enjoyable.

wormholewizards: Daikatana is worth the price just for Romero's idea alone. The game have tons of unique concept regarding stages, chapters, enemies and weapons. It's just the gameplay in general was badly executed with bad team AI and dull first chapter being the main culprit.

Tranquil.Suit: Also the game sucks in every possible way.
If you can come to grips with the helper bot controls its a decent late '90s style fps. It's no Half Life but it's at least as good as Shogo or Kingpin. Not a must play but interesting for fans of the genre.

Buenro-games: Sucking on Daikatana is pretty stupid. Specially coming from people that not only did not play it but were not even born when it came out. Daikatana did not suck because of gameplay or mechanics, it was a mixture of bad marketing and a tired genre. Sorry pig boy, but you hate on something you were never a part of. But hey, that is perfectly ok in the ether world.
My sentiment exactly. The vanilla maybe sucks, but the patched version is reasonably playable with only your sidekicks being the broken part. The gameplay is generic, nothing special (just like dozen of action FPS today) but it wasn't that unplayable terrible. I enjoyed the second and third chapter most because of the lore behind those two.

FYI, that video smells bad. I only got my bots stuck twice during my first playthrough of the game and they didn't have difficulty with either of those levels. The player somehow jammed a bot in a small passage way, and another at the bottom of an elevator shaft. He doesn't show how he did it. He is always playing solo and quite skillfully. By the final episode of the game, you'd think he'd have learned how to use the bots effectively.
