I don't speak lawyer, what's the deal here?
perhaps a maximum refund of $5? if so, I don't know how they will enforce it, since the system is automated
It's got nothing do with refunds, it's just boilerplate to indemify them in case the game wipes your disk and destroys your valuable term paper etc. It is unusual in that it promises to cover damages up to $5, usually it's $0.

Maybe Quake mappers can extract some textures and models from that Daikatana alpha. I'll definitely attempt to play it.


Here is a copy pasta of the .doc that comes with the download:
September 1, 1997

John Romero

3050 Texas Commerce Tower
2200 Ross Ave.
Dallas, TX 75034

James:

Here is the second Daikatana milestone comprised of three levels from the four episodes (12 in total) and many of the monsters, weapons and artifacts that would be found on those levels when Daikatana is in its final form. At this time we have finished close to half of all the monsters that will be found in the game, as well as almost half of all the weapons. We have finished more than half of the artifacts in the game and one third of all the levels. None of the monster’s AI is finished, but it uses the fundamental AI engine right now.

Four of the weapons are partially finished since they’re in a redesign stage and one of the monsters (Doom Bat) is in a partial stage due to technical difficulties which we are overcoming at this moment. Please note that none of the textures you see on the models are finished; they look good, but are not as awesome as they should be. We have hired a hardcore skin texture artist and he will be teaching two of our best texture artists his techniques so all three of them can redesign all the skins in a minimum of time.

To check out the Daikatana Milestone 2 CD, create a new folder on your computer titled “DK_MILE2”. Copy the entire contents of the CD into this directory. You will find a KATANA.EXE and a GLKATANA.EXE in the directory; they are the software version of Daikatana and OpenGL version of Daikatana, respectively. Make sure you have a 3Dfx (Monster3D) graphics card before running GLKATANA.EXE or you will get an error message and it will not run.

When Daikatana first runs, it will load and run the deathmatch map E3DM1. This is one of eight deathmatch maps that will ship from Daikatana, two from each episode (in this case, episode 3 deathmatch map 1). All the keys are pretty standard, but here are the default settings anyway:

Arrows Turn left, right; move forward, backward (press and hold SHIFT to run)
CTRL Fire weapon
ALT Use switch or door
SPACE Jump
Q Quit
ENTER Detonate C4 charge
1 Select Ion Blaster, Discus, Axe or Glock (Episode dependant)
2 Select C4-Vizatergo, Midas Glove, Crossbow or Pulse Rifle/Cordite Cluster
3 Select Shotcycler-6, Greek Fire, Celestril’s Barrier or Tazerhook
4 Select Sidewinder, Wyndrax’s Wisp, Sabikiis’ Red Dragon or Metamaser
F1-F3 Runs E1M2, E1M3 or E1M4
F4-F6 Runs E2M1, E2M2 or E2M3
F7-F9 Runs E3M1, E3M2 or E3M2c
F10-F12 Runs E4M1, E4M2 or E4M5
INSERT God mode toggle (llama mode)

After a map loads, all possible weapons for that episode are given to you. Press 1-4 to select a weapon and CTRL to fire it. If a weapon doesn’t come up, it doesn’t exist. Make sure you press INSERT so you can just run around blasting at the dumb AI monsters. Have fun!

Insert Title Here RPG Wokedex Codex Year of the Donut I'm very into cock and ball torture
No, it's terrible. Absolute garbage. Only worth playing to see just how many weapons in the game can be used to kill yourself with. (Almost half of them.)

Lego Jurassic World allows for scenarios in which Richard Attenborough punches Velociraptors.

In my eyes this makes it an honorary Game of the Year 2015.

Sooo... does Daikatana actually improves later on? I never really got that far in, and I don't have any sort of fond memories about it. I saw this some time ago on teh Steam forums:
https://bitbucket.org/DGibson/daikatana-1.3/wiki/Home
Though 'bout giving it a chance.

Absolutely, this is a great gem in the rough. Don't believe what they tell you.
Only finishers of the game are qualified to tell you how great or bad this game is.
Don't trust the haters. I didn't finish either.

As bad as I remember Daikatana being back in the day, it still looks a million times better than the latest CoD.
Well, except for companion AI, CoD's a bit better in that aspect.
