Not bad at all (patch 1.3)
This is not a bad game the ending is levels are kinda crap but all in all not a bad product in the long run you are better off useing auto saves as a means to keep the game where you are at had a ton crashes due to trying to load hard saves other then that no other probelms arrived.

I liked it
First, I have to mention that I couldn't play this game when it came out. Now, I've finished it the first time... and I LIKED IT! I know, this game WAS very late, 3 years after Hexen 2, made in a very late engine, but comparing to the 3 years eralier debuted Hexen 2, which I've played a lot, this game can be much more entertaining than H2. It starts very slowly, the first part is definitely boring. But after the first time travel, the story starts to be interesting, the quests are consistent, the gunplay, the weapons are quite good. With the narration and the VERY few NPCs, this game was better for me than Hexen 2. It was simply better to play it. The sidekicks are funny and the level design is very logical. I must sayí that I've played it with the 1.3 patch, without it, I can imagine this game can be annoying as hell (especially in the last chapter).

Extremely frustrating and not fun at all
I have really believed into John Romero and I have really looked forward, when Daikatana was only 1.39 € during summer sale, so I gave it a try, besides the crushing opinions of so many players. Well, unfortunately, they are absolutely right. I personally do not care about the old graphics, as I know that there are plenty of enjoyable games out there, whose graphics aren’t good looking at all either. Yet, when your first level starts in a green swamp with a green background, in which you have to shoot dozens of small mosquitoes and frogs, while hurting yourself with your gun, when you try to shoot it underwater, this is already a true fun-killer. The level design is pretty linear and very often you have no space to evade the enemies shots. Even with the easy difficulty and your health fully boosted via the neat RPG system of the game, chapter 1 is incredibly hard, even for experienced FPS-players. Yet, very often the enemy robots are stuck at a corner of a door, so you can keep shooting at them, while they cannot find a path to you, which, unfortunately, makes the game very laughable. Although you got plenty of weapons, the only 16-pages-sized manual gives you no clue how they actually work and that they are most likely to hurt you, while trying them out. Mostly, in chapter 1 I just used the Ion cannon, which you find right at the start of the first level. Yet, if you accidentally miss your target, it hits the wall and can fly back right toward you, eating your health away. Be prepared for a lot of frustration, might it be due to the terrible AI of your two comrades and your enemies, the weapons that harm you just as they harm your enemies or the extremely dark and often too narrow level design, which gives you rooms filled with enemies that just tear you apart within a few seconds, as soon as you open the door to enter. Luckily, GOG uses the 1.3 patch, which allows you to save and reload any time you want, otherwise Daikatana would be an even more frustrating mess.

this brought back memories...
I bought this game when it was first released on the PC. You have no idea how many issues I ran into trying to play this game ( I mean at least I was able to enjoy playing Ultima IX ). I am however tempted to buy this again because I read Masters of Doom which was the story of both Romero and Carmack and think that it is ironic that the DnD game they were playing was ended by the Diakatana, and this game for the most part ended Romero's career...sorta. I always thought that if Romero would have done things differently and was not trying to so up Carmack, this game could have been good. It had some good ideas...sorta

It's Really Not That Bad
If you liked Quake II and want something with a few more bells and whistles and a lot less poo-brown, you'll find it here. The opening levels don't help (when you're getting used to movement and mouselook), but dig in to the mad story and the crazy weapons and you'll find something here that has plenty of enjoyable peaks to offset its rugged edges. At worst, mediocre. At best... Pretty good. Not great, but definitely good. I have no regrets.
