This game is brilliant, very simple, action packed, focused in great mechanics. I love it, very classic approach which is possitive for me.
(it doesn't have unnecessary side quests that fills hours of emptiness and bores you to death like many nowadays games and it's another positive point)
Kudos for the developers.
played on Game Pass, so if you have that recommend trying it there before buying here. for a little context i'm a fan of Souls games.
the story concept, though over-done these days, is very well executed here. solid VA and art direction is bang on point for the material. uses the typical 'walk around taking in the environment and story while battles are carried out in a closed off area' ethos. the first 10 hours of the game is peak fun after the tutorial section is over. the weapons are just spectacular to use, and the dodge mechanics let you dance around the enemy while picking apart with ranged and melee, thanks also to a solid balance of enemy (which are simply awesome in design and mechanics) where you can flex all your moves. the upgrades are excellent too, but they can make the game much harder if you don't pick correctly early on. the lore collecting in frequented locations was a sore point for me, as you are forced to re-explore the areas everytime you enter them due to lore pieces spawning at different points in story progression.
but then gameplay hits that mark when it feels like the game was rushed more and more as it progresses. the combination of enemies (and boss mechanics) gets to a point where it becomes just a soul draining dodge spam, with your stronger attacks timed completely out of the equation. you realise ranged enemies can not only shoot through each other, but also through structures. there is even a point where your attacks on ranged enemies don't even register until the melee units have been beaten first. 14 hours in, i wanted to play something else.
ultimately an absolute corker of a concept with gameplay that manages to fall from outstanding fun halfway through to irritatingly boring.
Initially I found it a bit hard and complicated to get all these combos down, and I also found the fights rather repetitive, but after having it played half way through, I really enjoy the fights now as the variety with which you employ the weapons makes it more interesting. So I find myself coming back for more!
Story is Ok, graphics is good.
I bought it at 15 bucks and they are worth it in my opinion. I wouldn't say its worth a 50, maybe 20-25 would do it.
I played the game on Asus RogStrix G15(2022) Ryzen 6900HX and RTX 3070TI mobile at ultra setings. The game runed smoothly without any FPS dips, no crash to desktop, no problems.Only level wich had some visual bugs was episode 6 Remote RI Outpost. The only issue which i had was that the game collects data if you agree with the second EULA which is mandatory to play the game.This option can be turned off in the settings section in Data Gathering which you can set on off.Anyway i played the game on my Gaming Laptop so i don't have any secrets to begin with, but for regular users this may be a problem. The game is really fun and reminds me of the PS3 3rd person games like ( WET, Blades of Time, Infamous, Enslaved: Odyssey of the West, Dark Sector, etc).Evil West is a 3rd Beat'Em up/shooter where you have a skill tree, weapon upgrades, and a linear story divided in 16 episodes. The collectibles are scatered in the environment and they are quite easy to find if you explore all areas of the level. I finished the game in 30 hours on normal and hard in order to get al the achievements + No Death Run ( you have a posibility to select permadeath ). If you finish the game with permadeth enabled you will receive a costume upgrade that will replace health with every melee atack which is very helpfull for the hard dificulty in new game plus if you atend to do that. The game looks beautiful from a graphic point of view, and the scenery is Old America after Civil War period. I really recomend this game at a price range of 25 Euro not at full price (50% discounted). Multiplayer dosen't work properly but to begin with this game wasn't created with that in mind. It`s a solo experiance no longer than 10 hours on easy/normal dificulty if you watch all the dialogue and collect all items. After the first run you can finsih the game in 7-8 hours (any dificulty level) because you will memorize the positon of the enemies and the level layouts. Overall i had a nice experience with this game.
