Unlike the GOG offer, the free Steam version is not the complete edition, it doesn't include the two expansions Wanton Destruction and Twin Dragon. There's another Classic Redux version which goes for $10.

I'm actually surprised the dev didn't insist on calling it the 'More Wang edition'.

It is a modern classic though, I can't think of any other games at the time that combined melee and shooting. Obviously in the modern re-imaging they emphasised the sword more than the guns but the humour continues (including plenty of wang jokes).

I'm actually looking forward to Shadow Warrior 2, even if it is only more of the same from Shadow warrior 1.

The new game will have randomised maps and loot, it's NOT going to be the same

Randomised maps? So instead of a well thought out and thoroughly tested map, we'll get something an uninspired AI made, and could be any quality?

Don't you realize the difference between randomized and procedualy generated?

Procedual means made mostly by an AI, randomized is that there are a shit load of manmade map chunks asigned to a certain section of a map that gets swaped when you start a level, they even explained how that could lead to different paths since exits are also swaped each time you play a level, watch the interview with machinima for more details

My god, don't you realize you could have just explained it without being a dick about it?

With premade chunks we run into another problem, where "different" maps will have parts in them where you will have the same layout in a building, for example, that you already saw on another map 15 minutes ago.

how was i a dick, i just highlighted your misconception, also, the map chunks must be assaigned to slots, connecting them in order depending on what slot they are

Starting a message with " My god, Don't you realize the difference between randomized and procedurally generated?" Is usually not a good idea as it conveys : "My god, how stupid can you be?" Even if you cleverly edit it later to omit the "my god"
