Hard West 2 is like if XCOM, Red Dead Redemption, and a pack of tarot cards got drunk in a haunted saloon and made a baby. The shootouts are glorious chains of cowboy parkour — kill one bandit, reload your action points, kill another, and suddenly you’re John Wick in spurs. The supernatural Wild West vibes are dripping with style, and the voice acting makes even the demons sound like they’re two whiskies deep. But beware, partner: the game is tougher than a rattlesnake chewing nails, the story sometimes feels like it was written on the back of a whiskey-soaked napkin, and the loading screens last long enough to roll yourself a cigarette and rethink your life choices. Still, if you want a tactical strategy game where ghost trains and demon cows are a Tuesday, saddle up — it’s one hell of a ride.
One of the best ever made!!!!!
