Promising start

I will keep it simple and quick: + Graphic / its not the best the market has to offer but for an Indie studio it's excellent. Good weather effects / Day - Night cycle / explosions. + Soundtrack / The game have some very nice tracks + Dynamic / The movement and dodging is fast + Humor / Dirty, incorrect but funny + Coop / for those who like it - Very repetitive mission design / random generation doesn't help here - Weapons have weak impact on the smaller and medium sized enemies though the RPG elements, what destroys the flow of the fights. It depends however on the difficulty level. I played on "hard" and "very hard". - Too much loot, it destroys the flow of the game too when you have to pick so much things. Most of them are worthless. I have only this three negatives but they have strong negative impact on the game.

Trying way too hard to be Borderlands.

The first Shadow Warrior reboot title had issues with the guns being largely worthless, and very anemic enemy variety leading to somewhat glacial pacing. The swordplay, humor, and story were largely excellent. SW2, instead, swings wide with their multiplayer-focused design and procedurally generated levels which largely sacrifice whatever pacing, humor, and plot that remained in favor of a Borderlandsy loot grind utilizing an interface that is actually somehow even worse for managing loot. The procedural level generation manages to be incredibly slipshod, not only requiring frequent backtracking to get a key to progress, but also outright failing to populate entire level segmets with enemies, and sometimes having vast tracts of a level with the densest enemy populations leading to featureless dead-ends. Combat engagement suffers the usual problem of player vs enemy levels resulting in encounters either being boring pushovers or impossible bullet sponges if they're more than 2 levels above or below your own, compounded by a rock-paper-scissors elemental system that has no good reason to exist. When starting a multiplayer session (if you are ABLE to start a multiplayer session), you must manually set the enemy scaling in anticipation of how many people will be in the session, which presents obvious problems if someone leaves or joins mid-session. Finally, the game suffers on the technical level from poor optimization, connection issues, missing high-quality textures, egregious audio skipping, host-only progression tracking in multiplayer, and even occasional save corruption. Fun!

Fixed a lot of issues

This is a pretty fun game! I played the original way back in the day, and also the modern reboot. I thoroughly enjoyed them both, but there were a couple issues with the reboot that were addressed in this sequel. The main one (for me) was the ridiculous fall damage that it had, you could perform a dash off a set of stairs that are like 5 feet high and die from fall damage having to restart from a previous checkpoint, which is a tad bit weird for someone like Lo Wang who can take bullets and explosions to the face, to die from a fall of five feet. Luckily the sequel removed fall damage completely. Another issue was the somewhat clunky controls of the reboot, like having to double tap a direction (or two) then press attack to perform your more powerful attacks with your sword. This could be seriously clunky in the middle of fights, and didn't always work well. If you went too quickly, the move wouldn't trigger. If you went too slowly, it also wouldn't trigger. Luckily the sequel addresses this as well, you merely have to hold left click/left trigger and move in the direction that corresponds to your attack. This is is far easier to do during hectic fights, and is far less clunky. Now, the weapons! Holy crap there are a lot of weapons! Some are great, others not so much, but the real great thing is the new upgrade system which allows you to slot three upgrades into each weapon, some of which can drasticly alter the way it functions. For example, there is an upgrade you can find that allows light weapons to be akimbo/dual wielded which increases the damage but increases reload time and lowers accuracy. There is another that allows projectiles to split, and if you put it in a rocket launcher you can fire two rockets at once! Have not tried the multiplayer as of yet, still working my way through single player, but even if it's terrible this is still a great game.

Playing with Wang

Though the game has multiple drawbacks,playing with Wang is still fun. Can't hold a candle to SW1 though. Pros: - Great visuals - Dynamic combat - Wang Cons: - Instantly forgetable plot and characters. Very B-movish stuff. A few hits and many misses. - The RPG elements form one giant clusterf***. Oh,let me count the ways... 1) Ton of enhancing gems dropping from monsters. You can then use those gems to craft better gems... The sheer amount of those is way over the top and takes away from the flow of the game. And you'll only need like 6 of them total anyway (3 for armor and 3 for the sword). 2) Skills have some clutter too. Would you rather spent skills points improving battle skills making Wang a better cargo mule ("carry more projectiles","carry more bullets","find more ammo") or giving him some other useless upgrade (two words, "Greedy collector") That's a hard one,right? 3) Elemental resistances/vulnerabilities on monsters form a pretty meaningless addition to the game. - Though the developers tried to go the Borderlands route with "replay game on higher difficulty for better loot" the game has approximately zero replayability. You'll be stuffed with "loot" by the end of your first (and last) walkthrough and same applies to useful skills. - Missions often reuse the same locations and side-missions are especially repititive (with a rare exception). Worst offender probably "The gang of Fire/Ice/Poison demons need to be killed". Pretty much same mission given multiple times with different resists (see above). - Vanish skill is pretty much gamebraking. After spending some points on mana regen you can easily get permanent "predator mode" (invisibility,that you only need to break to make stealth kills.),that opponents have no means of dealing with whatsoever.This makes the "replay on a higher difficulty" thing even more meaningless. Killing 50 junkies in a side-mission was never so easy. Still,thanks to GOG for the giveaway!

A must have game

This is one of those games, where it caters to those who love melee style games, or for those who adore first person shooters., with rpg elements if you wish to use them, not to mention the voice acting is spot on, which helps drive home the adult humor and one liners. I highly recommend completing side quests as you go along, then before you reach "point of no return" you complete all missions in the bounty board about six hours, depending on how you play and on what level), but it will help you in the last the two hours of the game. The ending is extremly satisfing, as well you can see where it was left open for a part two. My only disappointment is I really have no other content to play with it, though I am guessing in multiplayer you have more content/options. Either way if you can snag a copy when it is on sale do so.
