A VERY short spectacle
First, I REALLY appreciate GOG getting the Shadow Warrior franchise here! The devs, though... what the heck? This is essentially a tech demo, it is NOT like the other Shadow Warrior games but has gone full Serious Sam then turned it up to 11. Maybe Ziggurat 2 would be a better example, because you will go from single-room arena to single room arena. I bought this thinking it would be like Shadow Warrior 2, infinite replayability, huge levels and psuedo-open-world or even actual open world. You will be gut-punched, someone-stole-your-girl/boy-friend-and-shot-your-pet disappointed with this mess. In addition to COMPLETELY changing core gameplay to an arena shooter, the game itself is only about 5 hours long. No, I'm not kidding. 800 hours in like 5 years on Shadow Warrior 2, and 5 hours on this. No achievements I can tell, no New Game Plus, you lose everything and start a new game from scratch. Worse, the only reason to replay is to choose a different weapon to upgrade. You have like 9 or 10, I can't remember, but they are forgetable. There are an additional 5 or so, but you have to perform fatalities on specific enemies and you get the special weapons for about 20 seconds. If you can't brutalize them or the enemies simply aren't there, tough luck. Upgrade system is weeaak. Search for secrets to find one point at a time, then spend your currency to upgrade your weapons and skills. I think you can respec, but you only have a finite amount of points (since there are a finite amount of secrets) AND YOU LOSE POINTS TO RESPEC. I really can't recommend any part of this game. Even to see the story is worthless: *SPOILER ALERT* It picks up from exactly where the last game ended. The girl from the last game turned into a dragon, right? Unfortunately she is dead, the dragon who was resurrected is Armageddon incarnate, and only you and Zilla survived along with hordes of monsters. EVERYONE ELSE IS DEAD. Kill the Dragon. Sleep with your katana. The end.
