Hilarious and fun - and free!

I bought this game when it came out on Steam a couple years back. Really enjoyed it and completed it. Yes, it's corny and moronic, but it has awesome graphics, fun gameplay and lots of guns! When I saw it was free in the 10th anniversary I figured it was a good time to reinstall and play it again. Just as much fun as the first time around. Thanks for the freebie, GOG!

There was an attempt

It's a shooter with some melee in it, most of the game melee is a bad idea. It's got the whole attributes system like in borderlands but it's entirely inconsequential on normal difficulty. You get some trash talk to laugh about half the time and just skip the other half. The writers missed the opportunity to get into the whole 80s vibe the game has at times. Most of the environments are just walking back and forth, so it's a lot of filler, not much killer. Enemy types are not very distinguishable. Most of your skills are useless, you're just mashing LMB. The game is >50% meaningless side grind, maybe that's useful on idiotic difficulty settings. The Co-Op is tacked on in ways that just constantly piss off the other players, it clearly wasn't designed for multiplayer. Get it while it's really, really cheap, it's far from worth the asking price.

Learn to read

Almost all the negative reviews for this game are based on one thing and one thing alone: people who blindly bought something without reading. Shadow Warrior 2 is a loot-based shooter; one of the key aspects of the core gameplay is a constant upgrade process through different "gems" you can insert into your weapons (the weapons themselves are all unique, and not randomly generated), that go from changing their damage type or buffing their stats, to turning them into turrets, explosive weapons, akimbo pistols, etc. The fast paced shooter gameplay of the first Shadow Warrior remake is still there, albeit with some minor differences, but if you're not a fan of loot and upgrades, this game simply isn't for you. While I don't think the game is perfect, there's so much love an effort put into it, and it's so well done, that I think it deserves those 5 stars. Plus it'll help offset the rather stupid 1 star reviews it has undeservingly received.

Flawed but fun

Takes the original FPS formula of Shadow Warrior's 2013 reboot and makes it a hub-based looter-shooter with (Galaxy-only) co-op. Gameplay is insanely fun (rivaling DOOM 2016), the soundtrack is first-rate, and the graphics are generally good (distance textures are low-res tho). But the same levels are repeatedly - REPEATEDLY - re-used over and over, advanced character builds are based around an RNG crafting system, and the story is - kinda bad. Flawed but fun. 6/10

Different paths

-Movement is great. No restrictions, all freedom! -Shooting is satisfying. I love the animations for the most part (see below) -Melee is improved especially the combo system. Tho the heavy attacks have been removed -The looks great. I love the weather effects very much! -Music! -Slicing dudes to pieces never gets old. Set pieces are nice and the level of destruction is very cool. -Zilla City. Nuf said. -Weapon variety. -Funny characters. -I miss Hoji tho Kamiko is great and funny as well. Hell my favourite part is when she mocks Lo Wang at Hojis grave. That was a nice touch. -Armor system is integrated to the gem system and there is no armor pikcup anymore. -No classic weapons. Including the original katana which was available in the remake. -The levels are repetitive. Little variety on themes. -Level generation often bugs out and breaks the game. There were cases when I had to restart the level because I stucked between levels of 2 merged building. Basically houses inside houses and other funny stuff. -The gem system is overwhelming. It requires too much management and the upgrade interface is not as good as in the 2013 version. -No more berserking enemies. -No shuriken. -Where is the classic Shadow Warrior arcade machine? We have Alienware everywhere and those are indestructible for no reason. -Fortune cookie should have been a health boost and there are too many of it. -No alt fire for guns but they have ADS instead. This was a really big disappoint! -Chapter system were better in the 2013 version. In this one you are just jumping from mission to mission without any link between them. The whole pacing is off. -Where are the flying enemies? The drones are basically ground level enemies without legs. There is no real threat in the air. -No puzzles. -Can't "use", fire, slice while casting chi powers. This wasn't the case in the previous game. This is an unnecessary restriction. -SMG reload animation is slowed down and looks silly. Maybe it's a bug. It's the same as in the previous game but really slow. -I miss the ammo check animations when pressing the reload button. I can live without them but I liked them in the previous version.
