Blaze a trail back to the dark heart of the West in Hard West 2.

You are Gin Carter, a notorious outlaw with a reputation as dangerous as the frontier itself.

On the hunt for a big score, you hear talk that the legendary “Ghost Train” is heading your way loaded with federal gold. This is the one.

You swiftly assemble a posse of outlaws, some with guns, others with the kind of supernatural skills that make saloon bars fall silent in a split second.

Night falls and the posse rides out, silhouetted in the spectral light of the moon. Together, you transform the prairie into an ungodly land echoing with gunfire and the screams of the hunted.

But once on board the train, you discover it’s not named the “Ghost Train” for nothing. What follows is the fight of your life through the uncharted badlands of the Hard West, propelled by bullets, witchcraft, and your pursuit of personal salvation at any cost.

Chase down the devil himself and take back what he stole — your soul.

Features


THE GOOD, THE BAD, AND THE UNDEAD: Folktales of the far West collide with the darkness of the occult in an unforgiving land riddled with as many demons as there are bullets.


CONQUER THE DARK FRONTIER: Explore the far reaches of the Wild West in a desperate fight to save your soul. Discover more about your posse as you wander the lands, from snow-covered vistas to frontier towns, struggling to survive in a merciless world. Make brutal choices and learn to live with the gruesome consequences.


SHOW YOUR BRAVADO: Rack up kills to activate your Bravado State and replenish your Action Points as you roam the land taking down anyone — or anything — that gets in your way. Chain together stylish kills of multiple foes to extend your streak and shore up your reputation as a legendary gunslinger.


SUPERCHARGED POSSE: Unearth mysterious playing cards to build your posse’s poker hands, and kit them out with punchier guns, explosives, trinkets, or just a square meal of beans and whiskey to keep them in top six-shooter shape.


UNNATURAL LEADER: Like it or not, responsibility for your growing posse of gunslinging outlaws, teleporting witches, and other mysterious beings lands at your boot-clad feet. But be careful who you listen to and what you ask them to do. The right choices lead to more Loyalty Points and useful new skills for those closest to you, but choosing poorly will test their commitment to your cause.


SHOOTOUTS ON THE MOVE: With projectiles of lead and witchcraft, the turn-based combat happens in dynamically shifting environments, keeping your brain as busy as your trigger finger. Let your imagination of Westerns run wild, from chases on horseback to tense train hold ups, as you hone your strategic skills to a fine edge.

Laughably designed "strategy".

A handful of missions in before you start encountering enemies that can hit you 100% of the time, do massive damage and heal themselves for 100% of the damage done and can do it on a very short cooldown and there are around 5-6 in just one mission and I've read it only gets worse.

Faux-rp and repetitive combat

I stopped at about 10 hrs as I did no longer enjoying it. I can't really consider it rpg because there's no character customization, the characters are very very basic and shallow, the story is linear, the choices as to how you'll progress your quest are essentially non existent and generally they've put some random half assed rp elements here and there creating....nothing. The combat, which is the reason why I bought it in the first place, starts interesting but quickly becomes repetitive and boring. You hide and shoot, hide and shoot. The whole system is extremely dependent on bravado which ends up making the combat very deterministic. Bravado is what moves the fights and also what makes them so repetitive. Granted, there are subtle things and choices that make a big difference and I don't deny the strategic level of the game, but this doesn't save it from being unexceting after a few hours in. Chess is also very strategic and yet it's the most boring game created in history. The game it reminded me the most is actually Desperados III (and Blades of the Shogun, obviously), but with turn based combat and faux rp elements. I wanted to like it, but I can't. From me, it's a no.

could be better

get rid of linearity, make modifications worthwhile and introduce alternative paths/styles coupled to that
