One of the most underrated FPSes ever. It was such an ambitious game and you rarely see that level of ambition in the genre anymore. It tried to do so much stuff and some of it wasn't even done all that well, but it was a different experience than pretty much any other FPS before or since. I still play it once in a while for the uniqueness and because it actually is kind of fun.

First stage and a half didn't win me over. Should I try again?

If it's not for you then it's not for you. The only thing that changes after the first stage is that it somehow gets EASIER in most of the other levels compared to the first.

Just another 90's arena shooter with hitscan.

The fact that this game still has an active community blows my mind.

Bought this back in the day, probably one of the first multiplayer games I played regularly on dial-up.
fondly remember bagman mode where you had to steal the other teams cash from their safe and take it to yours, remember being able to customise your own characters too with different outfits

wobbly qauke engine textures, long loading times, anoying loading when entering pawn-o-matic and me fapping to one of the whores outside the bar until ejaculation, Cypus HIll, die die die, i'll follow you for a dollar, etc etc

tl;dr Kingpin
