Evil West Reviews

Boring... at chapter 12/16 im done borred us fuck same attack all the time same mobs all the time but more of them even bosses are just few of the same mobs but in different configurations..

<3 lots of fun~! I highly recommend this game!! ALT COWBOYS PUNCHING STUFF AND DOOM LIKE FIGHTS I LOVE IT

W game...all u do is go KABOOM and slaps those creature GOOD story, u kill a vampire's father>she kill ur father>u kill her.... "Revenge is a fool's game we can't afford"-Arthur Morgan Meanwhile, Jesse Rentier....

My favourite character in this game is the politician they tried to make look evil but since everyone else is so fucking annoying or rude he comes off as being totally in the right in every single way The game is no BS full action and the combat is great let down by it's really bad level design and unimaginative reuse of enemies. You can tell they really like DOOM but seemed to miss out on how integral level design is to that series. Is fun and okay but could be great: the clunky incredibly clunky traversal and level design really really bring it down. Also the visual clarity is absolutely terrible, they have these wonderful water and nature graphics only to always be brought to a burning wooden building where you cannot see anything.

You ever wondered what would happen if the Wild West met up with Van Helsing? Then this game is for you! Grit your teeth and get ready for some gore laced violence as the vampires go up against the US government! Prideful leaders get put in their place, old time friends provide backup, and the lead is one hard son of a gun. Master your weapons and enemies to put the leeches back in the dirt for good! The visual effects are good, the story is nuanced, and the gameplay rewards technical use of equipment and upgrades. I give this game a safe 8.3/10.

I can't imagine a game released in 2022 still having such a major bug in 2025. WARNING: you may encounter a bug which the UPGRADE menu literally wont appear after the first mission. And as a new player you wont notice it until you realised there is no where to spend your gold while doing pitiful amount of dmg. Unfortunately, there is no way to workaround, you'll need to restart from a new save after the tutorial to proceed. This is absurd!

A very enjoyable point A to point B kind of game. Lots of action. A good amount of weapons and upgrades. In a world of games that require huge blocks of time, this game allows you to jump in and out and have shorter gaming sessions. Good save system I never feel like I have to slog through areas I've already been in. If you've had a long stressful day, this game is perfect.

God of War (2018) gameplay meets the setting of Red Dead Redemption 2 with vampires thrown in for good measure. This game was awesome! Don't be expecting any major 100 hour open world. this game is a tight nit 10-12 hour linear campaign, but the brilliance comes from its breathtaking art design mixed with the satisfying and surprisingly extensive gameplay design. Apart from combat you aren't doing much, but that's not a complaint. Perfect for a sit-back, vampire slaying session... This game kicks butt - especially if you can score it at a good discount and slap it on the TV

There once was a man, an average Joe like you and I, and this man had a dream. It wasn't the most ingenious of dreams, but it was an interesting one. [i]"What if Supernatural were a movie?"[/i] he wondered. [i]"And what if it were directed by Michael Bay?"[/i] Well, Flying Wild Hogs apparently heard the man. Lo and behold, Evil West. [h1]What I Liked[/h1] - Evil West never takes itself seriously. It knows what it is, a feel-good game, and runs away with it. It never sets up a complex plot, never sets ups moral grays or nuance. It fully intends to be a game you just get into and have fun with, and it does that quite well. Genre accurate asshole politician? Check. Genre accurate supportive, older brother guy? Check. Genre accurate over-expecting father that cares more about killing monsters than his kid? Check. Genre accurate dead mother? Double check. Some might find the lack of such complexity a downside. I feel that if you decrease the complexity somewhere, you can use it to highlight other parts of your medium. While I agree that Evil West doesn't do that exceptionally, it does it well enough. Complex games have their place, and so do simpler ones like this. Especially when they are fun. - The game trades complexity for reliability. There isn't a combo list that you have to memorize, there are just a few moves and they all come together tightly. It makes it easy to learn the game and easier to express what you want your guy to do on screen. - The game is linear, in a stage based setting. - The game has a parry. I am a proponent of having parries in my action game, and any game that does it well gets my approval, simple as. The parry in this game is a deeply ingrained feature. You can do without it for sure, but the game never gives you a reason not to. Keeping in line with the design, its not a super hard to do thing and pretty reliable in most situations. It plays very well with other mechanics, and as such the game always encourages you to use it. There are things you cannot parry, and the value of repositioning that dodges/rolls provide is not lost. - The game is short. Simple games, in most circumstances, benefit from being short. Ending before the simplicity transforms into drudgery is a wise decision, and I appreciate that the developers went down this route. [h1]What I Was Neutral About[/h1] - The different weapons in this game are reliable over being complex, but some are just [i]too[/i] reliable. Many cool weapons that you get later down the line become stuff you just use when the other stuff is on cool-down, or to execute a rush down of a critical target at higher difficulties. I found myself never using different variants or more niche weapons more than once or twice a stage. Maybe its a me-thing, but I was never nudged by the game into using them even at the highest difficulty. - The difficulty scaling just makes things a test of attrition and makes some challenging enemies downright annoying. There is a flying enemy that buffs enemies, has invulnerability unless you do specific things, and becomes highly evasive and possesses ranged attacks once you start getting close to damaging it. I believe this enemy isn't that annoying at lower difficulties, but I have developed a residual hatred for it after completing the game. [h1]What I Disliked[/h1] - There are some visual bugs. Sometimes the camera just becomes so free that it gets stuck on other sides of a wall and that can be frustrating when you are in a mini-boss battle. - Despite finishing the game at Evil difficulty, I did not get an achievement for it >:( [h1]Arbitrary Rating for Nerds[/h1] Mechanics: 7/10 Gameplay: 7/10 Art: 7/10 Music: 6/10 Story: 6.5/10 Technical: 7/10 Overall: 7/10 Ideal Price: $15 or lower

This is the kind of game "they" don't make anymore. There's crude humor, blood, guts, guns and fists. It's the Old West, after the Civil War, and you're a key player in hunting Vampires. I know a lot of reviews say it's like an Xbox 360-era type of game, and it really is. Setting, art, and music were all fantastic and immersive. The combat... gets annoying, and if you don't use every tool at your disposal you will be repeating fights until you do it the "right" way. Sometimes there are "puzzles" that use mechanics that haven't been explained but it's not too bad. All in all, I'd recommend this game simply for the gritty vibes.
