This game shouldn't be called Daikatana. That's such a negative name, we should call it Livekatana instead

First off, the game is called JOHN ROMERO's DAIKATANA (Daikatana no Romero Alfonso in Japanese). Second "DAIKATANA" means "Big Sword" although "Greatsword" might be a better translation. This refers to the weapon wielded by the villain, Kage Mishima that is later reclaimed by the player. Having said that, the Daikatana itself is not actually a greatsword (which require two hands), but a hand-and-half sword, id est one that can be used with either one or two hands. But it is still called a greatsword because Suck It Down.

DAIKATANA IS CURRENTLY ONLY ONE AND THREE QUARTERS UNITED STATES DOLLARS ON STEAM, ALL TRUE FPS EXPERTS NEED TO BUY THAT poo poo.

Why spend $60 on casual trash like Grand Theft Auto V when a real hardcore FPS like DAIKATANA is only $1.75?

Soon, much like Orion Prelude, every goon will own daikatana and it will all be my fault. By the way, Orion Prelude owns and if you don't own it you're an rear end in a top hat. It's 75 cents, go buy it.


Also today I discovered Universal Combat CE is free on steam, so now I am also Derek Smart's Bitch. Goddamn I'm a lot of people's bitch these days.

John Romero's Daikatana is the answer to every problem we all have with modern video "games." John Romero's Daikatana is a game that will not hold your hand, has no QTEs, no cover system, no dumbass action setpieces, no stringing you along from cutscence to cutscene, no iron-sight aiming. None of that casual console kiddie crap. John Romero's Daikatana is the purest fps experience in existance. John Romero is truely the divine prophet of fps, and will lead the PC Gaming Master Race into the promised land of fps purity. The "bad reputation" this game has is a joke. It all comes from casual "gamers" who resent John Romero's Daikatana because it is an Expert FPS and is just too hard for them to enjoy since all they want in games is handholding baby trash filled with cutscenes. Real FPS Experts and pure blooded members of the PC Gaming Master Race will recognize that John Romero's Daikatana is the ultimate fps experience.

Also don't you loving dare say that this review is "funny" this is a no-jokes Let's Play of a game I take very seriously.

You're not the only one. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZKqdlPFsgA (This is a really old video of mine with me trying to get coop to work on 1.2)
I am relieved to see that the fanpatch doesn't fix that poo poo, as the fanpatch doesn't seem to fix much other than SOME pathing, SOME renderer bugs, and does some modernization like adding AF, a toggle for vsync (so you don't have to edit an INI to fix the load screen bug), and widescreen fixes. Game is still daikatana as gently caress.


Also apparently 1.3 works on linux or something, who knows, that poo poo's for nerds.
