the characterization of sartre above makes him sound like a platonist, who understands that the concept of free will entails a manifold (unconditioned free will) that is limited by the situation (the occaision as kierkegaard said) but in a problematic way (awareness of the fact of limitation)....this underlying conception is best criticized by wittgenstein in philosophical investigations, in his rejection of the notion of meaning in favor of usage.

on the nietzsche matter: i am not sure what exactly you mean by "reactive"....clarify maybe?
