My own GOG Affiliate link for Shadow Man Remastered (which is unbelievably good) on GOG store: https://adtr.co/2u6C9U Every purchase helps out the channel!
Full game longplay of Shadow Man (1999), an action-adventure game, the Dreamcast version specifically. Released for the PC, N64, PS1, and DC, in second half of 1999. Dreamcast version was generally the best reviewed of the bunch, on launch. Played here via Redream emulator, in 3840x2880 resolution, with a 16:9 widescreen hack on, for a high FOV and little-to-no-clipping gameplay, with some messed up textures in the in-game cutscenes, and some 4:3 HUD, including the lock-on indicator. Cutscenes which also are running in 4:3 stretched, they don't respond to the hack otherwise.

A few important notes:
This is a sort of "minimum required to beat the game" walkthrough, not the 100% All Dark Souls/Cadueux playthrough. My other, Remastered version longplay, is the sort of more complete one, with more health gained and more Dark Souls.
You are required to gain 9th Soul Level only, to beat the whole game. There is no point in getting more, except for the 10th Level Secret Door in the Marrow Gates area, which contains a Book of Cheats (or a Second Violator if it's the Remastered version I believe), and for the completeness sake.
There are a few hours of getting lost and backtracking cut out of this video, for your comfortable watching sake.
If you plan on using an online walkthrough to help you through this game, don't do it. The most popular ones are so off the mark, in terms of locations and explaining what and where to go, it's not even funny. I'd suggest you use a visual guide.

Main version differences between the original 1999 and the 2021 Shadow Man Remastered:
Each of the Five got his own location, a prism, and a Piston in the Dark Engine to be stopped, in the Remastered version. In the original due to time constraints, Three of the Five are found in the Penitentiary level, with just Jack the Ripper and Avery Marx having their own distinct levels.
Remastered got the Dark Souls located differently throughout the game, to make way for the 2 additional Dark Engine areas, due to Two of the Five now having their own level.
Small changes, like the Second Violator being available in the Remastered, a Sawn off instead of a second Shotgun, that kind of stuff. Basically just all console version cheats/secrets/weapons mixed up into one version.

Console versions comparison:
PS1 version - A tragedy. And Mike lost his sunglasses on the way, PS1 couldn't handle the swag. Probably why it runs at 600x224 and 10-20 fps average. Tragedy. Controls with huge input delay, basically an almost unplayable version.
N64 version - Competent version, but quite heavily compromised due to the cartridge of N64. Heavy compression of all audio, and a lot of missing sounds/voices. Graphics are low-medium settings of the PC version comparatively. Framerate 30-50 fps, pretty okay. Controls were wack due to the alien controller of N64. Playable.
Dreamcast version - The best of the bunch, high settings graphically, no additional compression of audio, basically almost a PC experience for the time. Framerate 25-60 fps, quite variable, but nothing that would make the game less playable than the N64 version, while looking drastically better. 640x480 resolution, and a Progressive mode of display. Very playable version, highly recommended.

Game summary:

In 1888, Jack the Ripper – lamenting the fact that his ritualistic murders have not unlocked a mystical power that he believes to exist – prepares to perform the ritual upon himself at the expense of his own life. A man named Legion appears and tells Jack that the power he seeks does exist and offers to share this power with him if Jack constructs an insane asylum for like-minded killers in Deadside – the land of the dead. Proclaiming "for we are many!", Jack commits suicide.
