I think this review misses some of the fun in this game. My experience so far has given me the immersive sim goodness that i have come to expect, like climbing onto roofs and throwing a rope down the chimney of a shop a that has item available for purchase during the day that you don't want to pay for at night. This allowed me to get blue tier weapons within the first town of the first character. Playing unconventionally is the name of the game here, side quests are worth seeking out and often have good rewards and interesting ways to solve them, I like to pick at every inch these games give me and i definitely think this game majorly succeeds where death loop failed.

The Cyberpunk review was totally perplexing. Also - not my business sure - but the way he dumped his brother and let Laymen wither like that seems kind of nuts. To say he didn't want to do anything with industry news only to start his own industry news series a couple months later. Weird.

In the world of games, where every company does the same, some generic game that doesn’t offer a new perspective or polishes cherished aspects really fall flat for anyone that has played probs more than 10-20-30 or however many titles it needs for you to become invested into the hobby. And well. When consuming art, I don’t want to have a Mcdonalds experience. I mean. Those games exist. But they are called ubi/ea/ mobile games.

For me, I am enjoying the streamlined nature of this game. I picked up Wasteland 3 way back based on Skill Up’s review and I totally recognize that game’s quality. I had a lot of fun with it but unfortunately it got too expansive for my interests. It became difficult to leave and come back to the game so I eventually fell off. Here, I like that I have a spread of options to play with but those options aren’t as horizontally deep. That way I’m able to play in smaller spurts and then pick the game right back up. Maybe if you’re newer to these sim games you’ll enjoy the welcoming simplicity here like I do.

"Weird West" is a long-established pen-and-paper setting. This is kinda like a video game just being named "Dungeons and Dragons". You wouldn't slowly introduce players to what an orc or a walking skeleton is in a DnD/"Forgotten Realms"-based game, despite them not being part of the name. Why should Weird West slowly introduce a siren or any other kind of otherworldly being, when the game's title says exactly what it is about and what it contains? Furthermore, the self-contained stories found in quests and the recountings of choices are very indicative of the "Weird West" system, which very much favors such brief stories. If anything, the devs managed to capture what "Weird West" is at its core. How well that translates into making a video game is a completely different story, though.

This is the craziest comment thread ive ever seen you guys are ridiculous. Your desire is that games have small inventories, while also retaining the possibility of finding health potions “everywhere”, so that you’ll have more incentive to _use_ health potions? What? Whether you have a small inventory or not, you’re gonna be _able_ to heal whenever you want in any game that has a ton of health potions laying around everywhere.

@@TheDamnWinner You need to work on your reading comprehension. Nobody's talking about making games easier, or giving players more items, but making STOCKPILING impossible to encourage you to use up your resources. I have no idea where this "finding potions everywhere" quote comes from? I don't see it anywhere in this thread. This "stockpiling prevention" was the exact reason Doom Eternal gave player really small max ammo count. They overdid it for my taste, but it shows that it's not some crazy idea but a popular notion. The same philosophy was what made the first Halo so great - it was really hard to find ammo replacement (alien weapons were litelary impossible to reload) so you had to constantly change weapons instead on stockpiling ammo for your favorites.

Something bothers me about the UI. I can’t quite put my finger on it, but I think it might be the size of individual elements. Certain parts just look big. Also the mini map. That could have been styled to fit in with the Western aesthetic but instead looks like every other mini map. Finally the companions. They look like they follow the player way too far. If I’m walking around with two friends, they don’t follow my 3 yards behind. We’re close together.

I happened to stumble across this game, which I've never heard of on Xbox Game Pass one night. I looked at the clock, realizing the time I knew it was time for bed for work the next day. Though, I went against my better judgement and stayed awake longer then I should have just to see if this game was something to keep installed or immediately delete after playing it and possibly not liking it. With that, I booted the game up and was pleasantly surprised. I played for a few days, playing the Bounty Hunter. She was so fun to explore the game with. Thoroughly, I enjoyed my time. Then, the game continued... I was playing as a Pigman. I don't know what it was, but this is when the game lost all appeal for me. Not because Pigman bad, no. Because I noticed I had to sit through five chapters/characters in the same world and such with the same weaponry. Something about it seemed to be a sludge. All in all, a pretty decent game. Especially with it's low(er) price point, it is a good pick up if you're looking for something different or bored.

Nerdy correction - the game isn't isometric. In parallel projection (encompassing isometric), something far away from the camera would be the same size on the screen as something closer. Think of Diablo 2, where an enemy at the top of the screen is exactly the same size as on the bottom, even though the bottom is "closer" to the camera. In perspective projection (i.e. how our eyes work), far objects appear smaller than close objects. Imagine drawing your eye's FOV -- isometric would be a cylinder going out from your eyeball (all parallel lines), while perspective would be cone-shaped. In the gameplay footage, things that are farther are smaller, so it's perspective, not isometric. You can have a top-down camera position with either style.

The way your review talks about the whole package almost makes it sound like one of the primary reasons the game exists is to prove that this newly formed indie studio is in fact making functional games and isn't susceptible to over-promising, under-delivering, or straight up failing to produce a fun playable game. I don't say this to dunk on any game developers, but it seems like success stories like Supergiant, or redemption arcs like Hello Games, stand out among a sea of game developers drowning in a market crowded with AAA tentpole franchises, PC publishing being a bag full of angry cats, and the ever increasing awareness of how pervasive shitty management and abusive work culture is from top to bottom. I also don't want recognition for a game to boil down to "Congrats! You made it!", or for that to supplant critical examination of a game. I love your approach to game reviews, and I'm particularly thankful that you take the time to parse out things you don't like from an execution or design perspective vs things that aren't to your taste, and that you explain why for everything. I want to know more about the relationship between Games Pass and indie devs. The info that came out during GDC was very heartening to hear, but I want to know more about it. Things like what makes a dev want their game to get a day 1 games pass release, how does that affect their budgets and production timeline, does Microsoft get involved in the development at all, or do they just work out a deal with publishers? I want to know more! Because I want Games Pass and whatever subscription based services that come after it to be a more reliable way for indies to publish.

RPS have compared the game to oldschool Fallout, and while that was supposed to be praise, it ironically also encircles what seems to be both this game's core problem, and also a problem of the genres it's stuck in between - the traditional RPG mindset expects you to play in a specific way that represents your player character, for better or worse - whether it's the most effective path or not, and whether the game entices you to, or not. In an immersive sim however, player discovery stands front and center, and the game has to offer incentive to try out different playstyles, and make sure they all stand on equal footing in terms of effectiveness and entertainment value. So here you have the narrative underpinnings and c&c of an RPG (minus a proper dialogue system), but no stat game to funnel you into building a specific character with a specific playstyle. Instead, you get the trademark simplistic Arkane skill tree that lets you mix and match a bunch of combat abilities to your hearts content, but also completely distracts from any roleplaying unless you as the player very much force yourself to.

The thing that I feel is tough about that is the fact that even if there is no “good” or “bad” endings, there still usually is a “preferred” or “best” outcome. That’s what drives me crazy with games like that is I feel like there is always an optimal path. And if you make all of the different choices similar in outcome instead, then what’s the point? I feel like it has to be a very tough thing to do to be able to create a game like you are describing that has meaningful decisions and yet still plays out organically. That’s just my guess though Edit: typos

@@J-Dizzle95 Exactly, but for me it’s once you decide on your very first choice, the rest are almost entirely irrelevant. I would hazard a guess and say 90%+ of players who make the first choice as a “good” choice will make every single other choice as good so therefor there really isn’t any decision making to be had at all, the same goes for “bad” choices. Like you said there is also an optimal ending so It all begins feeling like an illusion that these games use to pretend like you have some control on events when it’s all scripted to go a certain direction anyway.

Love listening to your reviews Skill Up! I know my own tastes well enough to know when I'm going to like a game even when it gets a bad review, this being one of them. I'm having a blast so far. My biggest disappointment was the fact that all characters can use the same abilities/weapons, but I just decided to limit my weapons to fit the character I was using. Rifle and Handgun for the bounty hunter, shotguns and melee for the pig. I'm on the Protector now and the bow has probably become my favorite weapon so far. Not gonna lie, the first story is by far the worst. I've been enjoying every other story more and more. Really it's just that the other characters and abilities lend themselves more to experimentation. Compare spawning a tornado you can turn into an elemental tornado, with a typical bullet time. Bounty hunter was done dirty imo, easily the worst one.

This game suffers from the same issue Dishonored had. It expects you to play stealthy and non lethal sometimes, but does not offer enough skills and tools to do that. Weird west literally has no non-lethal options except stealth knockout which makes it extremely boring to do stealth runs. At least in dishonored there where sleeping darts and shock mines to play with as well as non stealth powers. In this game, only one of the characters is stealth focused, while all the rest have only combat skills.

To be fair, dishonored is really light on enemy types and varied encounter design, but I still the hell out of that game. I still have hope for this.

Yeah I would say Divinity Original Sin 2 is the champion for different combat design. Probably 60% of the fights feel hand crafted and unique.

Really liked this. One of the few I actually even bothered to complete fully. Plot was spot on.

@@OrionDawn15 The story is based on some American myths. Obviously, the reviewer is totally uninterested in American history. LOL

@@trumplostlol3007 Oh? This wild west game based off of a time period in america has american myths in it? I couldn't have guessed. And is that true? I'll assume you just pulled that out of your ass to try and justify hating on the reviewer for simply not liking the game like you do, but you do you.

I absolutely loved this game could nt disagree more with your review, i do agree with the enemy type lack of variety though

I was really hoping this game would have more depth and based on this review alone I am a bit disappointed. I will most likely buy this game in the future, but I am very glad you covered it so my expectations aren't as high as they were originally!

I'm definitely not one for agreeing with you (or anyone else) on "99%" of the games you review, but that's why I like you. You're unabashedly yourself. One person's opinion shouldn't be your own opinion just because you enjoy their overall content. I'll check this one out since it's on Game Pass! I suggest others do as well.
