I hated this game at first, mostly due to the direction they were taking it, the new Lo Wang, enemy designs and such, but after playing it for a while, I'm so happy to be wrong.

I'm really enjoying this game, at first the sword felt like I was using a blunt stick to attack enemies, but I got used to it, the enemy slicing isn't so bad, sometimes the wrong parts slice off like I swing at the head and the arm slices off, it's not bad, but I really think it could have been better, it would have been awesome if they were able to make slicing the enemies like in Metal Gear Rising, it would be way more satisfying to slice the enemies exactly the way you swing the sword, could have been quite a big step for the FPS genre too, maybe in a sequel?

I really like the level design, how open and non linear it is as well as the secrets and of course the save where ever you want.

Still don't like the new Lo Wang and enemy designs of course. Still haven't finished the game so I hope things get better in those areas.

Did they use the same engine in SW as in HR before? If so, they certainly beefed it up considerably. Even though I have only reached chapter 5 yet, I don't really want this to end... xD I am seriously hoping for mods or decent DLCs. The Asian setting of this game is totally my stuff, and it has been a long time ago since I had that much fun in any FPS.

[Lunick]

Yeah it is the same engine as Hard Reset's but it is beefed up. Just compare the system requirements of Hard Reset and Shadow Warrior.

Shadow Warrior Patch Notes:

Shadow Warrior 1.0.4
- Some random crashes fixed.
- Fixed more places throughout the game where players could get stuck or fall below level geometry.
- Fixed Berserker's hit zone.
- Fixed crashes on troll shields break.
- Fixed enemy death lock.
- Fixed troll remains.
- Fixed a bug causing Mezu to fall off the arena after his death.

[Jblade]

Fixed berserker's hit zone? Hmm, I wonder if it means it wasn't working properly? I felt that even with hitting that part they still took a huge amount of damage.

Anyways, just finished it. That was one hell of a ride, and it amped up towards the end.

Spoiler

The ending was really poignant, and pretty touching. This game really did suprise me, I enjoyed it more than any other game released this year. Just a hint if you're reading this and haven't beat it yet, wait around the ending credits. The camera moves back and then goes forward again, and it reveals a little bit each time. Glad they set up sequal bait with Zilla and the twins, although I hope the latter get a bit more screentime if there is one since they felt weirdly undeveloped. It was cool that Lo wang betrayed them first though, I sure as hell was expecting them to do it to me first.

Is it possible to get 100% completion on most maps (stats at the end of each level)? Or is it pretty hard to do?

[Ronin]

I beat it last night, really happy with the whole experience, easily the best fps I played in years. It took me 22 hours on normal and I thought I searched everywhere yet I only uncovered just over half the secrets. Want to play new game plus and finish powering everything up if possible.

Devolver Digital @devolverdigital

The free Shadow Warrior pseudo DLC has been pushed to next week for some final tweaks. Stay tuned and get your rubber gloves ready...

[Micky C]

Any info on what it might be?

[Lunick]

Shadow Warrior @_ShadowWarrior

The next set of free alternative katanas are planned from some amazing games. Exciting times...

The mop from Viscera Cleanup Detail seems like a guaranteed weapon.


More interestingly, the game is Greenlit but hasn't been released on Steam so I may be looking into it too much but Devolver could publish the game or something.

[Lunick]

People breaking Shadow Warrior for speedruns already.

[The Commander]

I am liking the secrets in this game.


Inb4 Tetsuo complains, this is a easter egg.

[Night Wolf]

I just wish you could interact with the anime girls, would have been rad if they shot at you.
The green haired girl has the wrong sounds too.

[Micky C]

Where's the green haired girl? All I could find were lots of purple haired girls.

What are you talking about? Obviously the developers lacked the talent to create and texture a simple room and so went with old art to cover their shame. DUH!

You still have a stick up your ass about what I said a few pages back? So I would have liked to have seen an HD anime girl... big deal...

You've lost it and completely misunderstood what I had to say. I never said it was bad graphics as such but whatever... continue being an idiot about this and ridiculing me for asinine reasons if it helps you feel smug, superior and sleep better at night. You know nothing of me and I don't care... fuck off. Yes I said it... to hell with you and your stupid pictures. You are taking what I said earlier way too far.. whatever.. again if it makes you feel better about yourself.

You said in 119 words what you could just have easily said in 3 to make your point:

[Tetsuo]

*shrug* OK... I wanted to drive my point home a bit more than that... in terms that can be understood here.... just "I don't care" probably wouldn't have done the trick.... especially not laced with profanity. I'm well aware that I can't win for losing around here though no matter what I say.

Troll is troll


Seriously, though. Chill, man. Just laugh at yourself.

[julystork]

Is there any way to enable autoaim, or a enemies guide on the internet yet?
'cause I am completely at lost with what to do about those huge bluegreen enemies with the charging attack

I have found that when fighting the big blue charging demons, you have to treat them like a bull. Relax, let them charge at you, then ninja dodge out of the way, they will usually be stunned for a second or 2 (especially if the hit a wall) then charge up your sword and strike the orange glowing spot on their back. Get good at this as you will have to fight 2 at a time sometimes with dozens of other enemy's attacking you at the same time. After a while you will own them as they telegraph their moves.

[Jeff]

That's how I did it. Charges past me, I run behind him and blast him with my gun. Found the rocket launcher does the trick, but you gotta be careful not to blow yourself up in the process. Sword probably works just as well too.

[Bloodshot]

RL is pretty dangerous with other enemies around, found myself shooting rockets but having them blow up in my face because an enemy darts in front of me while aiming at the blue guy,

Position yourself near a wall/tree/post/something indestructable and lure him in, when he smashes into it jump behind him and quadshot his orange hump.

If you have good aim stickybombs work pretty well too.

Oh my god finally decided to get high-strain system for the xbow on my Ex playthrough.

I can't believe I passed this up, it's like a totally different weapon. Reminds me of the painkiller stake gun or the crossbow from HL2 now.

EDIT: Actually it kinda reminds me of the railgun from SW classic almost.







Also, does anybody know how to get the soundtrack from the game, or have links on youtube? There's a specific combat song that I really like.
