The Shadowgate remake. by Mischief Maker 06/17/2016, 5:40pm PDT There's a part in the original Shadowgate where at the top of the tower you find a sexy chick chained up and begging for you to help her, only to turn into a werewolf and attack when presumably you let your guard down. In the remake when you find her she's fully clothed and not tied up and makes this big speech about how she's really the general in charge of the armies of evil and totally empowered and would never allow herself to be put in the demeaning position of being chained up in service of an ambush. Then she turns into a werewolf and you kill her. Girl power? Uninstall.
