Shadow Warrior

Divertido

Shadow Warrior понравилась мне благодаря сочетанию динамичного сюжета, мрачной атмосферы японской мифологии и отличного экшена. Особенно порадовала продуманная прокачка: можно развивать персонажа и оружие под свой стиль игры. В итоге это зрелищный и увлекательный шутер, который не дает заскучать до самого финала.

It's kinda boring.

I am glad that this game is still on Steam, old school boomer shooter with modern mechanics. Loved the whole trilogy! *Keep in mind that there is a gamebreaking bug known as the "Super Speed Bug" which destroys your save file by forcing you to run x1000,glitches the textures,animations etc and you are unable to make any progress. Unfortunately when this happens(mine happened at CH15) you have to download a save file from another player and then load the chapter from there which means that you are gonna lose your personal abilities progress...

[h3]"Always bring a katana to a gunfight. And also a gun."[/h3] -[i]Lo Wang, Katana Enthusiast[/i] Shadow Warrior is one of the best games I've ever played, especially when it comes to the shooter genre. It did the 'boomer shooter revival' gimmick a couple years before DOOM did (arguably better than DOOM 2016), and it maintains a pretty good balance of focusing on both arcade-style gameplay and immersion pretty well. It's arcade-y, but not overly so; You can hold every weapon at once and sprint/dash around during fights, but you still feel like you're grounded in the game because you do need to reload and Lo Wang actually has a character model. Its environments are really well-designed, there's a good amount of enemy variety, and the weapons-most notably, the katana-are extremely satisfying to use. This game absolutely holds up in regards to graphics and gameplay, and it doesn't over-indulge itself in story or get lost in cinematics like a lot of other games do. You could skip every cutscene and mute all of the dialogue if you want and still have a good time playing it because the developers prioritized making a fun video game instead of a glorified movie, which is rare these days. My only criticisms of the game have to do with the pacing, difficulty, and the post-launch content we got. This game is long, consisting of about 17 chapters, and it kind of starts to drag once you get to ~Chapter 13. By that point, the game has already introduced you to every weapon and every possible enemy it can throw at you, so it doesn't have much to offer aside from its levels and the events of the plot. After you get out of the slog of grey corridors and the general repetition in those chapters, the game gets a lot better as it wraps up. The difficulty, however, is another problem. I've beaten the game on Insane difficulty, but it'll probably be a while before I even touch Heroic mode because this game has a very simplistic and, frankly, boring definition of difficulty, that being to just increase the amount of health and damage of every enemy. In my opinion, it just makes the fights against the stronger enemies dull and take longer than they need to, because there's not a lot of response on their end and you're usually fighting multiple large demons in the later chapters. This is really noticeable in the survival side mode, where the types of enemies you fight are randomized after a certain arbitrary amount of waves and you can end up having to fight 3 necromancer demons on Wave 7. If Flying Wild Hog added a custom mode where you can tweak which enemies spawn and gave us more arenas to fight in, the survival mode would have been way more enjoyable. Give me a dojo map where I get to cut through dozens of Yakuza henchmen and my rating for this game would go up to a solid 10. [h2]Overall: 8/10.[/h2] If you're a fan of fast-paced first-person action games, definitely give this a try.
