Build engine nostalgia
Weird. I only played Duke Nukem 3D and no other Build engine games before Shadow Warrior. Yet, Shadow Warrior somehow made me feel like I was reliving fond memories of simpler, happier times. I confess. I started to play because I have fond memories of booties in Duke Nukem 3D and I knew there are some in Shadow Warrior. There are a few girl npc in the game, fully voiced even, though entirely for minor comical effect. What got me hooked on the game turned out to be the grenade launcher. Despite being one of the easiest weapons to kill yourself with and one of the harder ones to use on enemies, I found a lot of fun, natural ways to use the grenade launcher. This is the strength of Shadow Warrior: how well the levels are put together. Even in modern day AAA games, grenades often feel like an afterthought, with limited opportunities to use them naturally. There are so many places in Shadow Warrior that make you think, "I need to lob some grenades!" Into windows. Around corners. Over obstacles. In the ugly face of cheap-ass, fireball-firing, insta-kill, cloaked ninjas. Between grenade fun, there are eight other weapons to play around with. A sword that slice enemy into meat chunks like that guy in Resident Evil 1 movie. Dual wielding Uzis that gave me a Neo vibe. A rocket launcher that can fire a nuclear missile. An orc head that can unlease different patterns of burning depending on which of three holes in the back of its skull you stick your finger into. Yeah. In addition to killing the shit out of the baddies, you will spend a lot of time looking for secrets, solving intuitive puzzles, swimming, platforming, avoiding volcanic rocks and sumo farts. They are diverse and fun. Even the platforming is fun, and I don't like platforming in any game. And everything feels so smooth, including quick saving and loading which are instantaneous. So why buy this version when there is a free version? The remastered visuals appeal to modern aesthetics.
