Shadow Warrior 3 | Official 2022 Delay Trailer

Loved the first one. The second was a bit of a let down, but not terrible.
I'm not very excited for this 3rd entry. But will keep an eye on it.

Ive only played part 1 of the new ones which was great. I heard you can coop 2 so I might try that with a friend.

Hope 3 is legit but looking almost too over the top which is hard to say for Shadow Warrior
 
Are these new games any good? I loved the old build engine game.
Either you love the humor and the combat and LoWang or you will hate every minute of Shadow Warrior (1).
It clicked for me in a lot of ways I didn`t expect and consider it a masterpiece. (artstyle, music, combat, story, humor)

Loved the original, the first remake was really solid IMO. There were twists and changes, but it still felt like Shadow Warrior to an extent.

I couldn't get into the second one. It borrowed stuff from other games and the end result didn't remind me of shadow warrior at all. It was basically a coop looter shooter. People swore by it, I'm sure it's fun, especially with pals. But I didn't know anyone else that had it, and by myself it just didn't feel right. So I didn't give it more time.

3 honestly looks like a wannabe DOOM Eternal, and I don't know how to feel about it. The end result makes me feel like they don't feel too confident with the IP, and are throwing spaghetti at a wall and hope it sticks.
 
I don't know how anyone can say SW2 was a disappointment. game is a straight up masterpiece. so underrated IMO

Seriously - the first tried to make a fun game but still feel a bit like the original in level design.. the 2nd just opened it all up and improved upon that in literally every way..

Personally I think they are amazing, in fact I'd put SW2 as one of my time 10 games of all time.
2nd one is absolutely awful. Monsters are immune like 70% of time so you're constantly juggling all your weapons for the right elemental DMG OR run away from them. It's the opposite of dumb fun that this game is supposed to be. Gameplay flow is almost non existent. It's ain't no D00M.

Word. Diablo like ideas didn't worked well for them, if you want a proper looter shooter play Borderlands. SW2 went way overboard with it and the core gameplay suffered.

Feel like a chance for redemption for them. They wish they can be D00M tho.
 
SW1 was brilliant. The lineair approach felt really natural.

SW2 was a mixed bag IMHO. Great humor, poor story, amazing gunplay and pretty nice visuals. The Borderlands-esque approach didn't work for me. The levels felt really repetitive to me. Some enemies were just a pain in the ass. Especially the ones with heavy armor (bullet sponges).

Some great weapons though. Loved the swords and found an amazing sawn-off shotgun with triple barrels.

Right? That's pretty much how I felt. I mean, I could tell it was a good game, it just felt... strange to me. It felt like, "Hey, Borderlands is cool and popular, let's try to incorporate that gameplay somehow." Rather than creating a sequel and asking, "what can we do to make an awesome Shadow Warrior sequel?" It just felt out of place to me.

I'm willing to give it a shot, and most certainly will, but yeah, the similarities are pretty glaring IMO. Between the grappling hook that can act like the meat hook and pull you to enemies. Along with the violent finishers complete with colored & blinking stunned enemies, and then closed off arenas where you battle baddies. It's all a little too close. All while scrapping what they've done in the games before it. It just feels odd to me.
 
A delay announcement......trailer? Really? A trailer for announcement? For a delay?

Edit: I thought it was a trailer just to announce a delay.

Shadow warrior 1 is good if you play the pc version ps4 version is what ever Shadow warrior 2 is awesome even if you up the difficulty enemies still take crazy damage you using every weapon is not a con since doom eternal and alot of these retro 90s boomer shooter games want you to use every weapon available
