As a teenager I loved that game. I'd absolutely hate it now. Great vision with a wet fart of an execution. I should give the fan patch version a chance.
LOADING
[ I I I I . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . ]
The loading noises fire all at once now that hardware is so much more powerful
it was a haphazard mess on release but fan patch made it playable and quite enjoyable (if you're into oldschool fps). they fucking fixed AI! and the bugs are gone! and it doesn't crash every 10 minutes! it's still filled with stupid shit to the brim but i kinda respect its maximalist game design even if it is quite overwhelming at times.
Thank you! I was at high school when it came out, and somehow it fascinated me, I played the shit out of it despite its shortcomings as a game, it captivated me in some way.
Daikatana is a bit outside my wheelhouse, but is it worth playing if I like Postal 2 or is more along the lines of Duke Nukem which I find uninteresting?
Daikatana is an oldschool FPS that also tries some rudimentary RPG mechanics and is technically four games mashed with its own sets of weapons and enemies. It is as rough as it gets but Romero had the right ideas and much of what he envisioned in Daikatana ended up being the future of FPS
It has interesting ideas for its time, like NPC companions with voice lines, a leveling up system, and some creative weapons. Out of the 2 you mentioned, I guess it's still closer to Duke Nukem, but you can watch some gameplay videos or give it a try for $1 and see if you like it.
funnily enough - Daikatana ended up being way better than Duke Nukem Forever.
