Somewhere south of great

While not truly amazing, Hard West was a solid and memorable experience. At times, it was superior to others in the turn based squad management genre. For a system based on 'luck', it actually has next to no luck involved and is much more reliable than Xcom. Hard West sidestepped much of the frustration of its contemporaries in the genre, while still providing an experience on par. The card system was an interesting spin, the story was engaging and the atmosphere was immersive. All in all, I had a good time, 4/5 stars, would recommend.

Dark west shortstories - good and bad

Rookie storytelling mistakes done by clearly talented team. Instead of one campaign, you get seven short ones. Each of them gets different special "gimmick" in the overworld: you mine gold, you manage expedition, you have to feed your people. But these systems are so shallow, I've started to loathe the overmap and just wanted to get to the next combat. I've not played the latest XCOM so I can't compare these two, but the combat has sort of "boardgame" feel to it. I like it, it is clean and fun, but it doesn't offer enough "meat" to last more than few hours. Enemy runs to cover --> flank him --> shoot him --> repeat, ocasionaly you use special power, but flanking is where it's at. Because campaigns are so short, character progression is close to nonexistent, you simply don't get that "sense of pride and accomplishment" that comes with growing your guys. I've played games with weak gameplay because of great story (Bard's tale wink wink), and the combat here is not bad, it's ok, but it would need help from other game mechanics to make great game, sadly it's the best part, which maked Hard West just somewhat enjoyable. TL;DR;: If this were a cowboy, he would have a fairly decent shooting arm, face that seemed to change so often you wouldn't care about it, and he would walk with a slow limp, taking forever to get to a shootout.

Multiple scenarios, not a campaign.

I thought this game would play out more like XCOM in that you follow a linear narrative and recruit/improve characters as you went along. That would have been fun, to have an XCOM-style game with the aesthetics of the Wild West, but instead what the game turned out to be was a segmented storyline similar to what an RTS would do. If you've ever played Warcraft 3 or Age of Mythology (or presumably the Starcraft series), you probably know what I'm talking about. While the missions (scenarios) are longer than those of an RTS game, they are still relatively short and all progress with your characters (gear, money and wounds-turned-useful-scars) is lost when you start another scenario to continue the story. It's not a deal-breaker, the game is still fun and I haven't even finished it yet (three scenarios done with about five or so hours of continuous gameplay), but instead of forcing the character to play pre-determined characters with names and backstories, it would have been even better to follow a narrative that let you build up your own story as well. The story's interesting, though, and would have still been worth keeping even if it had been changed more towards my personal preference, but having more text-based story content would have increased the length of the game while still being a lot of fun, much like what the Shadowrun series does. As for gameplay, like other reviews have noted, overwatch doesn't exist in this game. Even Shadowrun has overwatch, but enemies in this game are the only ones who get it and if you get within the red circle around them (it'll show up if you hover over a tile close enough) they'll take a free shot at your character. Fights sometimes drag on because the equipment you're carrying doesn't do much damage and some enemies have higher health (doing 1 damage per turn gets old when accuracy is so low). Anyway, while it isn't perfect, it's fun. I feel like I won't play it again for a while until I want to relive the story.

Decent I suppose

Great game if you like the intitial concept. The Lack of Overwatch and *Spoilers* narrative is a serious downfall for this game in the second chapter. Immediatly you have to sell your soul regardless of your choices makes the entire first chapter and the moral questions I asked myself while doing these things completly meaningless. It could have been a great game about, loss, hardship and temptation but it got quickly boiled down to revenge and Satan narrative, which stoppped me from progessing past the second chapter. It left a very bad taste in my mouth. Good game mechanically if you can overlook the lack of overwatch which is a huge down point since its often a detrement to shoot at long distance and you often c an't hit people due to the addmitly weird angles in this game.

Reverse Difficulty Curve

I wanted to wait with writing a review until I finished the game - but I have to face the truth: I'll never finish it. It's not worth my time. Maybe it would be a better game if it were shorter, but it just goes on and on. It has enough plot for the lenght, but not enough varied gameplay. The basic premise is solid and I didn't notice that many bugs. My main problem is the reverse difficulty curve that occures in every single chapter: Every time you start weak guns, few resources and few party members. That means you have to carefully position yourself, plan a stealthy attack an maneuver yourself into favourable positions. The first mission in each chapter is the hardest - sometimes infuriatingly so, since you can't save during missions. Then it all goes downhill: You can quickly buy better weapons, you find additional party members, level up, but the missions don't seem to get harder. By the last mission you can just methodically gun down one enemy after another without much effort. It goes from infuriating to boring. There are some new enemy types on special occaisions, but they hardly have much of an effect, I didn't really care for the overworld map gameplay too. You get to make a lot of choices, but you can't really make estimates about the final results, so it's more or less guesswork. I wonder if they really do have an effect on the story, or if the game just fools you into thinking they do. All in all, it's not a bad game, but a rather dry one. It does nothing particularly well and doesn't know where to stop.
