It ended up just being pretty average, certainly didn't live up to all the endless attempts at hype, but that doesn't make it the antichrist either.

"The real treasure trove of this version lies in the graphic files you’ll find in the data\skins
directory and data\sprites directory. These are pure shit and the reason why I went
through so many artists at the beginning of this project. All the skin files are 640x480
and the art is just atrocious and embarrassing. A 640x480 texture for AN ARROW???
Yes, the legends are true. Just look at these awful graphics. The furry boots, the rat, the
Buboid, etc. All just awful work. None of these skins made it into the final."
while I see some of the problems he's talking about, this is a lot like ashley simpson saying her band started playing the wrong song

Anyways, anyone know?

If John were to announce the development of Daikatana 2 at some point in the future, I would be most interested in watching the development cycle. I like the world of Daikatana and the idea of smart sidekicks and weapons that get more powerful. These kinds of ideas helped to sell the product. However, it was the reality of making the product that mortally wounded it.
John Romero has the ability to redefine himself and come back stonger than before.
