robcann: Shadow Warrior 2 is advertised with having 2 free updates part 1 & 2 dlc's but can't see anywhere to download them. Any idead anyone?
They are already included in the installer (or if you use Galaxy, they are automatically installed along with the game).

tomimt: Is SW2 better than the first one? I got bored with that somewhere in the middle.

ShadowAngel.207: Gameplaywise everybody says it's a lot better, though it's sadly still a heavily castrated SJW political correct version of the original Shadow Warrior when it comes to the humour, secrets and all that. Hence why i'm happy i got this for free and don't have to shove some money to those devs.
Oh god, they didn't turn the game into PC bullshit, did they?

Many thanks for the gift Mr. GOG.

darthspudius: Oh god, they didn't turn the game into PC bullshit, did they?
They did.
The first SW remake was already like that, completely clean, neutered, no "offensive" one-liners. In general the humour there, whenever they attempted to make it funny was more cringeworthy. After some time, i just called the character No Wang. Because he was so neutered he hadn't a wang or balls to begin with. It really annoyed me that they got their hands on the IP and then did this PC bullshit.

From what i saw so far, Shadow Warrior 2 tries to be a bit more edgy but of course it's still PC in regards of asian stereotypes. No funny one-liners but a lot of cringe (Wang singing....i guess they thought it was funny? It's just bad, a far cry from the funny bad singing in the Saints Row games for examples) and they tip-toe around everything that could be offensive. Wang giving the middle-finger to a bunch of enemies was so far the biggest "offender" and that felt more forced than genuine.

Thank you GOG! Hopefully I'll get a system that can run the game in the not-too distant future :)

ShadowAngel.207: Just go to Game-Debate.com and look up the game and put in your system, it's quite accurate (more so than systemrequirementslabs that is more inaccurate to advertise hardware to you)
I generally went to systemrequirementslabs until I found out recently that it's not really accurate. That site you mentioned may be more useful, so I'll definitely try it. Thanks for the suggestion! :)

I didn't think the first one was that bad for it. But it could have been better. Great gameplay though.

Another hearty thanks Gog. I bought 2 other games in support (ok, both cheap and 75% off [firewatch {I felt bad for it since it didn't win :-) } and BGate II EE] so no big sacrifice but I wouldn't have otherwise).

Cheers GoG for the service you provide and a free game is just icing on the cake.

Thanks for the free SW2 game, GOG. That is amazingly generous. I'm very impressed with this giveaway.

Crosmando: I'm pretty sure everyone knew it was going to win, it was an AAA FPS game against two indie budget titles.
I wasn't sure about that. Tons of posters on this board were voting against SW2. There may well have been more posts declaring their vote against it than there were contrasting posts declaring their vote for it. I'm so relieved SW2 actually won.
