It's a fun, if a bit flawed the game. The camera is a pain in the ass to navigate. Some of the achievements are so RNG dependent, it'll make you tear your hair out. The story can be a bit confusing, and the lack of music variety can be grating especially when you get 10hrs in. It has some immersion aspect into it but not enough to really make it be labeled as an immersive-sim. With all that said, it was enjoyable experience. Worth a play!

Weird West is a really difficult game to rate. It gets a recommended, though with a caveat, so be aware of what you're getting. So the positives. The game is super ambitious. They've done a fantastic job of creating a Wild West environment jam packed with supernatural entities. Every game the map is different. You've got your bounties, your towns, farmsteads, mines, and caves. You'll come across random encounters while travelling. Treasure hunting, gunfighting, bank heists, duels -- everything's there. Even the world mechanics are incredible. Throw a firebomb into the grass and you'll quickly start a brushfire as an example. The things you do are also remembered and can alter later events, and while I'm not ever convinced with "choices that matter" design -- and this still falls into the pit trap that the story has to go on, so ultimately the choices don't make that big of a difference -- Weird West has still achieved about as close as you can hope to get in choices that matter. Quest outcomes can lead to later bounty requests. The people you help/travel with can become friends, the people you wrong become vendettas and then potentially hunt you down. You yourself can become a bounty. You can go and destroy a town, turning it into a ghost town. Literally every inhabitant has a grave spot for them to end up whether they die from your gun or something elses. Most everything you do ends up becoming a newspaper article. The amount of evolution in the world is quite staggering. The story is also pretty compelling, spanning five very different characters who all have their own antagonists and resolutions. There's a huge amount of creativity been put into this, and that absolutely should be recognised and praised. The issue for me stems from the gameplay, which I cannot emphasise enough, I found so frustrating that it largely spoiled my experience. I was playing it on hardest difficulty, which I tend to do with most games, but honestly, if I have to dumb the game down so that the stupid events can just be ignored I don't see the point. The gameplay falls into two parts, set in arenas whether they be towns, tunnels, or open land scattered with rocks. One part is a stealth game that reminded me a lot of the old Commandos games, whereby you sneak around the area trying to knock out the enemies patrolling it without being detected. The second part is your shootout, whereby once things have detected you, it's all guns ablazing. The problem I found was that the game wants to be the shootout, but the stealth aspect is a necessity since not taking out a large portion of the enemy force means you get swamped, since the moment guns start going off everything (and I mean everything) in the area is swarming down on you. But the stealth game itself is garbage. The camera's stuck in a 45 degree position that often prevents you from seeing the area ahead. This is particularly egregious in tunnels, where quite often you can't see a guy standing on a ledge directly in front of you, but he can see you! Couple that with enemies that detect you through walls, the junk littering the arena being hard to see and getting in your way, or pathing that has bad guys randomly doing 180 flips and the odds are you're going to be caught pretty regularly. And they don't even need to have detected you. Sometimes they'll start chasing down critters, only to then chase you down even if you've done nothing but crouch in an alcove. Once this happens, you then find yourself flanked on every side, bullets flying, two to three enemies stuck to you trying to knife you, and your own gun clicking away firing nothing because it needs to be reloaded, but you can't do that because doing anything other than stepping backwards or standing still cancels the reload. Add in environmental hazards, such as firing a gun while crouching under an oil lamp for some reason has your character deciding to shoot the lamp over their head rather than the bad guy in front of them, thus giving yourself a shower of fiery oil ... I'm sure you get the point by now. There are tons of additional abilities, four for each character, + 3-4 for each weapon, plus your crouch, your walk, your roll, your jump and all of them are ultimately pointless because, even if you're not fumbling for the many keys during the chaos of the battles, they share an ability bar that almost exclusively needs to be used for the slow motion escape roll that allows you to fire enough rounds to kill anything. There are 4 weapons, but the shotgun is complete trash and the melee weapon doesn't even hit half the time even if you could get into range without becoming a bullet sponge. You can get up to two people to join you in a posse to help even the odds, but the AI is just not up there, and in many cases your support just stands in the middle of the grounds getting killed, but on the rare occasions they do decide to help, more often than not they're either acting as meatshields to protect the enemy from your shots or they're running through the camp pulling what little hasn't already aggroed in a manner that would make Leeroy Jenkins blush with pride. Even the story goes out of its way to handicap you, with many boss encounters being preluded with a conversation that involves your character being made to stand face to face with your foe while you click through the dialogue, only for the conversation to abruptly end and throw you into combat whereby you're immediately shot down. So yeah, difficult to outright recommend. If you're into westerns or you like unique and creative works, definitely give this a shot, but do yourself a favour and play it on the lower difficulties to experience the story with as little frustration from the horrific gameplay as possible.

I recommend this game for anyone who is into CRPG and/or immersive sims. There are 5 chapters in Weird West, each of which sees you play as a different protagonist. The choices you make each chapter would affect the world in subsequent ones. The game is ambitious, and can be a bit janky at times. There are a couple occasions in which I explored an area that is part of the main quest later down the line, and I advanced the quest line without knowing what is really going on. In one of those occasions, some quest NPCs even turned hostile on me (which doesn't stop me from finishing the chapter, but does make me very confused). The game is great fun, but just don't expect it to be a perfectly polished experience.

If you can accept the reality that you'll spend possibly 10-20 hours of real world time reloading old saves and replaying parts of the game because of unfixed (and likely to forever remain unfixed) game breaking bugs and broken quest lines in what is a 25-30 hour in-game time playthrough: this is a pretty enjoyable Fallout 1/imsim hybrid game and I'd recommend giving it a try. If you have a low tolerance for that kind of thing: stay far away. To its credit, by all accounts I should have rage uninstalled this game at multiple points due to lost progress and time, but for whatever reason I still felt like playing it to the end.

This is The most flawed game that I actually enjoyed playing and am leaving a positive review for!!! There are tons of glitches and bugs in the game but the most annoying part for me was the bad game design decisions such as: - The control is scheme is unnecessary complicated, for instance if you want to use a gun's ability you have to hold 3 buttons on your controller at the same time!!! The result is you barely use them in battles and therefore the fighting gameplay becomes repetitive very fast - AI is one of the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ thing that I've ever seen in games. It is a wild west gunfight game but all of the enemies just rush to you no matter what type of weapon they are carrying, whether it's a knife, shotgun or sniper rifle, all they do is to just running at you!!! Unfortunately your companions also have exactly the same behavior and that makes it almost impossible to save them in the fights, since they just run towards 15 enemies heads on! - Enemies are bullet sponge, and with the most powerful weapons in the game you have to hit them 6-7 times to kill them, which is annoying and combined with the previous two mentioned flaws, it makes the fight gameplay really boring! - Traveling from one city to another city in the world map takes unnecessarily a long time, imagine in Skyrim, you fast travel to another location and then you have to watch your character's avatar moving from location A to B for 30 seconds until he reaches the destination, and there is no skip button for it!!! But if you get past these and other issues, you can still enjoy a really great story with a mysterious narrative and tone. The amount of freedom that you have as a player in this game is really satisfying and the choices that you make can have an impact on the heroes and NPC's lives. The game's world is also is very alive and it reacts to most of your decisions. All of these were a reminiscent of the classic RPGs for me (like Fallout or Vampire Masquerade: Bloodlines). That is why I still recommend this game to you, if you care about those elements like impactful choices and a world that reacts to those. (Of course you should also adjust your expectation based on the fact that this is not a AAA game) 7.5 / 10
