Daikatana Trailer

[SakuraOfTheSand]

John Romero's about to fake you his pitch.

[EmperorOfLols]

A sword that bends time and space?? This is the retarded version of the epic of Legacy of Kain series. Told by morons, rendered by blind people and ordered by the pod people divicion of the Majestic12

[TomeOfBattle]

My god, I tried this as demo. It was SUCH a pain to get it to install, much less play it. I never managed to get past the FIRST ENEMY I found. Some kind of dragonfly. It sucks farts out of a dog's anus.

[RainbowFission]

Thanks John.

[BrendanJTucker]

I've tried to watch this twice now, and my computer keeps lagging after 0:02

fitting to say the least

[ILikeToShootZombies]

number 1 reason for time machines? to go back to when john thought of this game and pistol whip him with a rearview mirror a couple times

[Grillparzer]

Where's my money, John?

[digimbyte]

What NOT to do in game design

[Ammit5]

3 people have been made John Romero's bitch

[LastSonofLilith]

Why couldnt the real game have been like this?

[PassiveSmoking]

Suck it down. Emphasis on SUCK

[zdogg30]

i cant watch this without my buddy Superfly.

Thanks John.

[crazyjavi87]

Can't blame a man for t-...okay, maybe you -can- blame him for trying. So I'll just leave to that.

[Hoorayforfakes]

Ah, John Romero is an idiot for just conceiving this.

[JisakuJ]

goddamn this shit is so 90s it hurts

[nopushbutton]

what's with all this prerendered stuff? there's only like 5 seconds of stuff that's actually rendered ingame (flybys of the player and sidekick models), and the game doesn't even use prerendered cutscenes! Did they just make a bunch of pre-rendered stuff and toss it out?

[thefran93]

@nopushbutton The teleportation scene and the model of King Garroth are also in the game.

BTWw, what the hell is that thing from 1:04 to 1:08???

[HouseLyrander]

@nopushbutton Yes. Did you expect better from Daikatana?

[starsiegeplayer]

@nopushbutton The pre-rendered stuff is the background story of the sword, so it is a true "trailer" in terms of being a teaser for a story, like a movie trailer.

Maybe they intended to put some of it in the game (it gets summarized verbally at the end) but decided not to later. Looks like the pre-rendered stuff was done with the engine, though.

[VFXNinja]

@nopushbutton They realized that actually showing the game would be a huge mistake.

[Cythrin]

Where did things go so wrong?

I mean damn, this actually looks decent. Good, even. Probably should have been an action/adventure game because absolutely nothing looks like an fps in this trailer.

[thefran93]

Actually, Daikatana itself is a decent game. It's a pretty functional classic shooter, so if you liked Doom and Quake yo will definately like Daikatana. But it's not even close of the masterpiece John Romero promised.

[Cythrin]

@thefran93

What. Have you even played it before. No.

90% of the weapons being useless and either plain sucking or killing you just as well as if not better than the enemy does not a decent game make.

I could forgive all the other things wrong with the game...maybe... if half of the weapons didn't suck. I mean come on, your first weapon is a gun that bounces off walls into you face while you try to hit a tiny frog and electrocutes you in water.

[JBHutto]

The trailer makes this look like the FPS equivalent of Final Fantasy VII. Once he knew what the final game was(ie crap) Romero should've burnt down the Ion Storm offices and said that Daikatana was lost.

[Carthsting]

Romero Should have never leaved id.

[redfoxbennaton]

Why was'nt this a hack and slash game?

[shevchenkoarena]

fantastic music

[earthfinder]

¿A que viene eso? La publicidad del juego en 1998 decia romero te convertira en su perra mama y traga y es que prometian todo que su juego revolucionaria el mercado que nos quedariamos impresionados por tanto talento desplegado.

Pasan 4 años y nada aparece el juego considerado el mas malo de la historia.

Para ser justo no es tan malo y si es divertido pero despues de lo prometiron pues se vieron muy mal.

[lettererere]

BUEN JUEGO ! Ya llege a la Normandia Plagada este juego es bastante parecido al Hexen 2 me encanta ademas lo compre original

[WinterXL]

cool stuff

[videlanghelo]

Pues si que nos acabó convirtiendo en sus putas el John Romero :-D
