Daikatana

Broken azz game

Do you own Daikatana? I own Daikatana. You know who else knows Daikatana? Daikatana. Every so often out of the probably thousand of games i own by this point i sit down and write reviews of the ones i mostly fondly remember, whichever its easiest to talk about, or endlessly criticize a game. Ive gotten more personal with the way i write these reviews, part of it is that i also play a lot less games, and if i do its games i played before. Anyhow with that out of the way, i have not played the original Daikatana, ever, i have only ever modded the game and i think that is the way it should be played. This game absolutely rocks. Yeah its that '♥♥♥♥' game everyone on youtube knows about but ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ actually playing it is super cool. There is ton of variety with weapons, levels are visually varied, you get 2 meatshields that will at some points in the game shoot the enemy and kill them for you, the story exists and its just fun. Its one of the more standout games i own, i mean its THAT game and it also happens to be very fun. Obviously when it comes to talking about games you are kind of expected to do the same thing over and over and- Screw that you buy yourself this game, get the unnoficial patch, turn on like invincible allies so you do not babysit them and just blast some enemies, its going to feel like any other classic shooter you oughta be familiar with and its got no complaints from me. Like i feel sad for anyone ripped off in 2000's but its 2026 like you can actually play this game than listen to yet another person on the internet telling you its bad.

$1.50 on a Steam Sale and thought to give it a try after all the insane history behind it. Episode 1 really drags this game down ALOT, it's about 4-5 hours of confusing level design, loud noises, repetitive enemies, impractical weapons (mainly any explosives since their radius is massive, killing yourself more than enemies), Friendly AI getting stuck on stairs and just in general getting stuck on anything with an edge or slope which after clearing a level it feels like you're baby sitting the AI trying to move them out and this is even with the unofficial patch, each level looking dark green / metal which visually hurts the eyes after a while and just in general very poorly designed in all places. If there is 1 positive, it's the player movement. It's incredibly smooth, responsive and also satisfying at times to the point where there still is a deathmatch community till this day due to how perfect the movement feels and if this was a purely multiplayer focused game then that would've been a massive highlight. Episode 2 AKA Greece is really well done, the entire level design is very Quake like where it's easy to navigate with secrets that take a little effort to find, weapons feel creative, environments look very pretty and visually well done for 2000s game and taking place in Ancient Greece was something not really seen at the time so it's a perfect location for a shooter. I honestly feel if this was Episode 1 then reviews would've been much much better. However despite being mixed, no matter how good or bad an episode is, all of them suffer from broken friendly AI pathing which completely stop you from progressing the game entirely and if they are stuck to the point where you can't get them out then you'll need to load your last save to one where they weren't stuck and it just really ruins the experience entirely, which made me stop playing. I understand what they were going for though, trying to break the formula at the time where it's a single player going through an entire game focusing on their own resources and skills to survive where as here they tried to have AI partners you'll need to watch their health, weapons, basically an escort quest as an entire game and sadly it just didn't work out at all.

El juego es bueno, pero tengo algunos sentimientos encontrados. En primer lugar, les gustara a los amantes de los fps antiguos como Doom o Quake, es el mismo estilo, los niveles tambien estan muy guapos igual que las armas. En segundo lugar, la historia es algo simple aunque tiene sus momentos muy buenos. Por ultimo, lo que más deteste es la cantidad de bugs y problemas que tiene el juego para que uno pueda avanzar, incluyendo tambien el problema de la IA de tus compañeros la cual es insufrible, se entiende por supuesto por ser un juego de hace ya 26 años, por lo que si lo desean probar, les recomiendo que si o si se instalen el parche 1.3 el cual arregla mucho de estos problemas y deja poder jugar al juego de forma decente. Sin más, y sabiendo todo ello espero que lo disfruten, porque si llega a ser entretenido eso no lo negare.

game is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ racist lol

This one is a true Masterpiece, IGN.

Yeah, it's not really a great game. Everything they say online is true - skip it.

Даже оценить не знаю как игра так себе очень скучная или не доделаная конечно же не кто не играет в мультиплеер, если сделали бы хорошое обновление то игра бы взлетела до вершин а так 5.7 можно поставить.
