Highly recommend the first person POV mod (the top down perspective is decent, but feels less immersive and the combat is jankier). After that, you're playing a hidden gem in the imsim genre. I'm excited for this studio's next game; the bones are there.

Hands down one of the best immersive sim RPG experiences I have ever played despite its minor flaws. It's a game set in a (appropriately) weird variant of the Wild West centered around the origin stories of five different characters -- the individual narratives all coming to a unifying point by the end of the game. The overarching theme driving the whole game is the cherishing of the human condition and how vital it is to feel, to participate in the various facets of humanity regardless of how 'good' or 'bad' they would be perceived. How you should live life to the fullest and without regrest lest you resign yourself to an unfeeling future of "would've" and "should'ves", and I think the way the game reveals these themes to you over the course of the game is beautiful. Gameplay is much like what you'd expect in a conventional immersive sim. You have locations you can visit, you can chat, steal, loot, traverse and enter combat in many different ways with a lot of variety, which can be further altered through perks you acquire throughout the game. Combat can be all-in guns blazing, you can choose to meticulously knock out every single enemy, or you can simply choose to sneak on by most of the enemies altogether. The world is your objective to approach, and I think it's implemented impeccably well. However, do note, that if you would like to do a stealth oriented playthrough like I did, then there's going to be some small shortcomings that you might notice throughout the game. - No real ranged ways to non-lethally deal with enemies conveniently. Kind of sucks in terms of diversity of approachment, but not that big of a deal - Walk-cycles can be inconsistent between loads. This might suck if you prefer to learn the movement of enemies and then execute afterwords. Not a big deal, but it can be annoying. - No real way to know when enemies turn around. Most games don't tell you this to begin with, so this isn't a big deal on its own, but coupled with above, this can make some approaching wildly inconsistent. There's a few other minor things, but you get the gist of it being a combination of minor things building on top of one another that hampers a stealth playthrough, because it biases heavily towards quick-saving and quick-loading, which can kind of suck given some areas take longer to load than others. I feel if stealth felt more fully integrated into the game it'd be even more of an all-timer than it is already. Actual combat, however is really fun. Your aiming follows a twin-stick shooter kind of formula, with various character specific abilities alongside shooting, along with perks further modifying the overall offensive capabilities that you can dish out. Being able to take out 2+ enemies because you slo-mo dodged into a dive is really fun. You can also throw out dynamite clusters if you have them to unleash even more mayhem, all the while bullets are flying all over the place. It makes for some genuinely tense and exciting encounters. Overall, for the first game released by Wolfeye Studio, they totally, utterly, and fundamentally, knocked it out of the park. Being able to craft such a thoroughly lore and history filled world with compelling characters and a solid narrative is not easy, but they managed to do it on their first go at it. I'd highly recommend giving this game a shot if you feel even a slight bit of interest. You won't regret it.

OK! From some of the minds behind Dishonored and Prey, ya gotta give it to 'em there. + Loved the five different Player Character viewpoints. Interesting stories each one, well told. + Enjoyed the gunplay, using twin shooter mode - and the 'immersive' simmyness of some of your RPG choices and actions. + Bounties were always fun, and the legendary weapons made it even better. - Didn't like losing all my gear except if 'til I had a horse.. reuniting with my old characters meant they just became a second horse carrying my good stuff til I stole it all back and equipped lol. - Story was pretty trite. The fantasy / fiction stuff was.. yeah I dunno I didn't really care towards the end. I liked the more personal stories like Jane Bell's tale at the start. + Liked the mini-nemesis system (ohh Lord of the Rings games I miss you) + Liked the map too. Reminded me of Broken Roads, another great RPG set in Post-Apoc Straya ;-) - Length was pretty padded. Overall.. C+ Get it on sale, hoss.

Weird West: Definitive Edition is a neat take on immersive sim genre with a thick layer of Wild West atmosphere. It's a dark, twisted take on the Wild West that throws you into a world where gunslingers, supernatural creatures and dark magic coexist. Which is a great combo, since people always crave for some sprinkles of mythical in real world. Pros: - Engaging Storyline: You start with a simple premise: you’re a retired bounty hunter out for revenge after your family is kidnapped. But then things get weird—in the best possible way. The game has five different story arcs, each focusing on a different character, including a pigman and a werewolf. Each character’s story adds new layers to the overarching narrative, creating a complex tapestry of interconnected tales. The writing is top-notch, filled with unexpected twists and moral dilemmas that keep you invested from start to finish. Every choice you make matters and can lead to different outcomes, so you’ll want to replay just to see how things can change. - Atmospheric World: The world of Weird West is one of the most atmospheric settings I’ve ever seen in a game. It’s like stepping into a comic book where every page is dripping with tension and mystery. The graphics blend gritty realism with a stylized, almost hand-drawn aesthetic that perfectly captures the mood. From haunted forests to ghost towns, each location is packed with eerie details that draw you in. The soundtrack and sound effects add to the immersion, with haunting tunes that perfectly complement the game’s dark themes. - Dynamic Gameplay: The gameplay is a great mix of action, exploration, and strategy. You can tackle problems in multiple ways—sneak past enemies, go in guns blazing, or set traps and use the environment to your advantage. The combat is fast-paced and satisfying, with a range of weapons and abilities to master. I love how the game encourages creativity; you can blow up barrels, start fires, or even use the weather to your advantage. It’s all about finding your own style and adapting to whatever the West throws at you. - Replayability: With so many choices and different endings, there’s a ton of replay value. Your decisions affect not only your character but the world itself, leading to different scenarios and story outcomes. This means you can replay the game multiple times and still discover something new each time. It’s a game that rewards curiosity and experimentation, making every playthrough feel unique. Cons: - Steep Learning Curve: I’ll be honest—the game can be a bit overwhelming at first. There’s a lot to take in, from the controls to the mechanics and the vast amount of lore. New players might find themselves scratching their heads trying to figure it all out. But once you get past the initial learning curve, the game opens up and becomes incredibly rewarding. Stick with it, and you’ll be hooked in no time. - Technical Issues: Like many ambitious games, Weird West has its share of bugs and glitches. You might run into occasional hiccups, like characters getting stuck or minor graphical glitches. They’re not game-breaking, but they can be annoying. - Occasional Pacing Issues: The pacing can be a bit uneven. Some parts of the game are thrilling and action-packed, while others slow down considerably. A few quests feel repetitive, and you might find yourself wishing for a bit more variety at times. However, the strength of the narrative and the intriguing world usually make up for these slower moments. Conclusion: Weird West: Definitive Edition is a wild ride through a dark and twisted version of the frontier. It’s an experience that sticks with you long after you’ve put down the controller. The game’s unique blend of Western and supernatural elements, along with its engaging story and dynamic gameplay, make it a standout title. Despite some minor flaws, it’s a must-play for anyone who loves immersive worlds and compelling storytelling. So grab your six-shooter, saddle up, and get ready for a journey that’s as weird as it is wonderful. You won’t regret it!
