    A decent fast paced FPS game. Melee battles are kinda chaotic, guns are an option but are weaker than melee weapons in this game so you're kinda stuck with melee most of the time. The storyline is okay.... the lines are kinda corny but that's the charm of the character so I'm okay with it. Overall a very okay game.

    Shadow Warrior 2 es un loot shooter extremadamente genérico, que no se siente como si tuviese nada propio ni original. La historia es mala pero tampoco es algo que importe en este caso, los mapas se reciclan infinito y los enemigos también. A cambio, hay una buena variedad de armas y se pueden personalizar bastante según qué cosas les enganchemos.

Gráficamente el juego no llama la atención, el sonido tampoco aunque se hace algo repetitivo.

    El resultado de todo ello es que es un juego sin pena ni gloria, puede servir para matar unas horas si estás con necesidad de gatillo o motosierra, pero poco más. Un 5.    … Expand

    You start with a sword, a pistol and a submachine gun. However, the arsenal of weapons is greatly increased in the first hour of play, and new weapons are added all the time. These can all be upgraded to have even more action-packed fights.
    The humor sometimes degrades the game into ridiculous irrelevance. It's funny, but it also takes away any basis for a believable or serious story.
    When you die it's not a big drama. Just continue from the last checkpoint. I think that's good.
    I found the side missions fun, the headhunt missions (on the board) are unfortunately farm-heavy.
    It has cool enemies.

    In Shadow Warrior 2 erwarten dich schöne Levels und Umgebungen. Die Levels bereist man im Verlaufe des Spiels mehrmals - teilweise mit anderem Wetter oder Jahreszeit. Das fand ich eine gute Abwechslung. Die Umwelt ist zu einem grossen Grad zerstörbar.
    Man beginnt mit einem Schwert, einer Pistole und einer Maschinenpistole. Das Waffenarsenal wird aber schon in der ersten Spielstunde stark aufgestockt und es kommen immer wieder neue Waffen dazu. Diese kann man alle mit Upgrades versehen, um so noch actionreichere Kämpfe zu haben.
    Der Humor degradiert das Spiel machmal in eine lächerliche Belanglosigkeit. Er ist zwar lustig, aber nimmt auch jegliche Grundlage für eine glaubhafte oder ernsthafte Story.
    Wenn man stirbt ist es kein grosses Drama. Einfach vom letzten Checkpoint aus weitermachen. Das finde ich gut.
    Die Nebenmissionen fand ich spassig, die Headhunt-Aufträge (am Board) sind leider farmlastig.
    Es hat coole Gegner.    … Expand

    Kardeşimle beraber oynadım. Eğlenceli, stres atmalık, Doom benzeri, kafa yormayan, önüne geleni öldürdüğün düz bir oyun olmuş.

    This FPS is an overlooked, must-play gem.
    It mixes the melee-gunplay of Doom with the upgrade spiral of Diablo, in gorgeous looking, well-optimised environments. Even for 2023 standards.
    Gameplay is fast, customisable and addictive. The self-ironic tone of the story and the characters is enjoyable with good voice acting. Coop is stable and fun. However, some guns feel too light, loading    This FPS is an overlooked, must-play gem.

    However, some guns feel too light, loading screens take quite a time, interfaces are clunky and naturally, you have to be fond of a certain repetitiveness. There could have been a little more interaction and more quests in your main base. Coop's story progression is only for the host, but you keep the instanced items.    … Expand

    I liked the fast paced gameplay and the dirty humour in this game. Dont expect a very deep story but it will surely entertain you until end.

    An entertaining and high-speed shooter marred by some rather egregious and unnecessary looter elements. These elements drag the game down to a crawl at times, limit the utility of an expansive weapon list, and turn most of the late game into a a slog.

The story and side content does nothing to help this offering either, as nearly every quest is an uninteresting cycle of going somewhere and shooting something. Genuinely the only thing elevating the game is its enjoyable combat, which does all of the heavy lifting and makes this remotely playable. The repetition of going somewhere uninteresting to shoot at something uninteresting is passable since the act of shooting that thing is overall satisfying.… Expand

    Lewd, crude, and possibly dangerous to know, Shadow Warriors 2 is nonetheless a rollicking first person shooter full of boomsticks and gibs.

    Shadow Warrior 2 is amazing. The shift from linear to semi-open-world shooter hasn't hurt the game since the action remains constant and adheres to the classic shooter style over the more modern one. The multitude of new weapons gives the game some variety, even when taking artifacts into account, and the solid combat ties everything together into a very enjoyable package, whether you're going solo or cooperatively. It ranks up there with Doom as one of the best pure shooters of the year and one of the best timed exclusives on the PC in this genre.
