Great remaster of a great game
I used to play Turok 2 when I was a kid. And I never ever finished it. More, I had A LOT of trouble getting through the first world, even. It's a hard game, that will not hold your hand and lead you through the thing. Once you started, you were on your own. After many attempts and give ups, I managed to beat this world. After that I was met with disappointment - the game came out to be buggy mess, in level 3, all enemy models were invisible. After that I gave up on beating the game entirely. I had episodes of going around some playable areas, thanks to extensive cheat list. That is, until I bought the remastered version. Remaster fixes literally all problems original PC version had, and adds few features, that either help or or change game. Game became much more fast paced, movement became smooth, framerate is WAY more consistent than original's. Added settings allow to disable aids, if you're willing to taste the game the way it used to taste back in '98. Hell, you can even choose version of soundtrack (PC or N64), which I had neither in original PC version, if you didn't patch it up. Gameplay wise, it's a solid FPS with engaging combat, gigantic maps where you can feel lost at times (especially if you disable hints), quite smart (though they have weaker moments) enemies, and probably one of the most inventive arsenals FPS can get. Every single weapon feels good when used. Plot is more or less an excuse to explore, execute and exterminate, you don't need to know it to enjoy the game (I played this game before I knew proper English). It's a cliche "be a badass and save the universe" kind of thing. Soundtrack is great! Not much to say here, I dig those tribal tunes. Sound effects are the ones I grew up with, so I see no problem with them, but lot of people miss N64 ones, maybe possibility to use N64 soundbanks would be a welcome addition. I have a lot of fun, and I'm halfway through the game. I finally have a chance to finish it. Thank you Night Dive!
