Well written review, as always. But I think that chillUp got the right take on this one. But dont be down, you cant win them all. 1886 was unplayable with cinematic FPS cap, idiotic and on rails AI. That game was a travesty. Anything compared to that game should be in "never touch". And Evil West is worth a play for the right reasons. Now, you might have lost to an Aussie. But dont worry, you are still worthy of love.
Have been playing it for a few hours and honestly have to say after months of trying to find an interesting game this definitely made the cut. Really enjoyable experience so far!
I think most of these reviewers missed this little detail. I see EW as a throwback to this era. These games were a bit clumsy even back then and even with bigger budgets. These are not meant to be Devil May Cry animation cancel slashers. Still, I wouldn't buy it for 50 bucks either. I would recommend Binary Domain until EW goes on sale
Late 1800s- early 1900s industrial revolution era steampunk with magic and monsters is some of my favorite settings. This, Arcanum, and Grim Dawn are great if anybody has more recs for games or books set in these kind of worlds I'd love to hear them!
Xbox/PS2 had a game named Deathwatch in this genre as well, was a fun enough game. Weird West is a bit more traditional but has its fair share of supernatural stuff, and Hard West is an excellent XCOM style game in the genre. If you are a TTRPG afficinado Deadlands is this same setting, very well done.
I wrote a book called The Magician's Sin that is set in an alternate 1930s featuring magic, monsters, mobsters, and an anti-hero with a heart of gold if that sounds interesting to you!
There's the miniatures game (40k-like) named Malifaux. Besides the miniatures game, they have a free podcast with stories called Breadside Broadcast. There the Tabletop RPG called Deadlands. Also the X-com-like video game Hard West.
@cescfabregas9000 It's £33 on CD keys. I've just tried it on my PS5 and it looks absolutely horrendous. I've bought it for PC, wish I'd checked CD keys first.
That's because instead of actually trying on the story and making a good game they give you a god of war combat rip off with waves of enemies through the whole game instead of something original and fun happening besides killing waves of enemies
idk if anyone remembers that game on the ps2, Darkwatch, but it feels like its a spiritual successor/inspired by that game. At least, that's what I think of whenever I see this game lol
It's $89 where I live, that might be too much for this one but I really want to play this, looks very promising and I want to support a company that is willing to step up and make a great "original" game despite any limitations they might have compared to AAA premium game companies. Gonna wait for the sale after Christmas.
I gave it a go this weekend and once I got over the graphical shortcomings like “Gotham Knights” I can say I enjoyed the Physics and the awesome Headshot animations 👍🏾.
The review surprised me after seeing the title, I was looking forward to this one so I'm glad I watched the full review. Seems like you enjoyed most of it
Thank you for these awesome reviews!! I was talking to a guy at work about all the games coming out this month and referenced something you said about Pentiment. He immediately asked if I watch ACG. You’re doing God’s work!
How is this game flawed? It’s giving you exactly what the developers planned from the beginning… nothing more nothing less. Broken games go for $60-$70 and people throw their money, but a complete playable game comes out with its set content and it’s a big deal.
@@pandagonerogue.140 exactly. A game releases complete, without bugs, and running overall smoothly while delivering on everything the devs said they would deliver on, and people still find things to nitpick.
Sounds like a lot of fun. It’ll be half off by the time March/April rolls around. Will pick it up after my play through of RE4 Remake on PS5. Thanks for the review. But I will definitely be playing this later on, just looks too fun to miss.
This game knows what it is and never takes itself more seriously then it should. I'm having blast with it and I HIGHLY recommended to fans of action-brawlers (actually very similar to god of war, just with minimal story, but also no bloat).
Was eagerly awaiting this one. Bit after I heard about the 1080p 60fps on console. I had my doubts. Thanks for confirming them. I will wait a few months and check to see if the game gets better optimized.
FWH isn't known for releasing a lot of DLC... Shadow Warrior 2 is the kind of game that really could have made good use of new weapons and levels and it basically got nothing.
I am in for anything that doesn’t take inspiration from Ubisoft’s RPG model 😜 we are blessed to get such kinda game in current days where micro-transactions/live service is the only motto of game developers
Im 35 and still addicted to classic single player games. Soon done with GOW Ragnarok, now downloading Evil West. Pre-ordered callisto protocol, forspoken and dead island 2. My younger selv thought ”when I get older and make my own money, im gonna spend it on video games“. Why? Because its still fucking fun 🎮
That line about Godhand mixed with Call of Juarez and mules being sterile is a big reason why I subbed and will continue to watch, you certainly have a way with words that I'm a little envious of to be honest.
@@bio400 Damn you a hater, they just want someone else's opinion who got a chance to play it early before they decide to purchase a recently released game.
This looks like it turned out like I expected it to and I'm fine w that. I'll probably still wait for a price drop, but I will dig into it eventually. I love western settings with fantasy elements.
Game has been getting good reviews. Only ones I have seen give it bad is UA-cam reviews. Which I find strange be cause most of the time UA-camrs are champions of games like this. I bought it, can’t wait to play it.
Played evil west yesterday having a blast so far. Got stuck at a hard part but will continue tonight and get further. Can't wait to play this after work in a few hours.
Damn, I was really looking forward to this one but almost every game I’m excited for has been a miss. Love the reviews, I watch every single one for any game I’m interested. Thanks for the hard work!
You should play it, don't forget that reviews are to be taken as others opinions so we can create a valance of what the game is on our head, but if you really want to play a game just do it.
why u lot sayin he didn't like it? i mean he didnt love it but he did say multiple times that even though it's probably not winning any awards he still liked it and enjoyed it
Funnily enough, Mules are not always sterile. I did look it up in order to make a story about a Mul MC (from DarkSun, whose name is based on that animal, and whose reproductive ability reads as "sterile." For that exact presumption, which I also held up to the point I researched the topic) There have been several - though still rarer to note - cases of female mules bearing young. Perhaps not to other mules, but that would be the key. They definitely can't breed with each other, because of too many genetic commonalities.
It seems right up my alley when it comes to throwback games. I did love some less popular 360 era games back in the day, and well, there where one of my favorite games actually. Like Inversion, Binary Domain, Red Faction: Armageddon, Singularity, Timeshift, Army of Two, Lost Planet 3, Darksiders or Darkness (and many more, some of them played on a PC though). I will definitely give it a shot. My nostalgia is tingling with this one for sure.
I love how my two favorite reviewers (you and Ralph) have tow very different veiws on this game. He is glowing about it. Luckly for me he said it ran and looked great on his PC (which has similar specs to mine and SteamDeck) so I am happy about that... I'll get it on PC even though I had wanted to get it on PS5. But gonna get it for sure on PC! In any case, thank you for the informative review!
I'm so happy this seems like it's decent, that first cinematic trailer they showed gave me absolutely nothing, didn't even make it clear what kind of genre the gameplay would be.
I saw the Gameplay Overview Trailer and the Extended Gameplay Trailer and I did like what I saw, its my style of game, I can see myself having fun with it!!! 🤩 Maybe I will Pre-order it? 🤔 I will wait until the last day and make my decision 😜
Hey man, thanks for this. I just watched your impressions video this morning because I couldn't find any reviews I trust to help me decide if i wanted to buy it or not. Glad you covered this my dude!
I love the Weird West aesthetic and wish games did more with that setting. Happy Thanksgiving ACG! Thanks for what you do! And Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
I'm very pissed that this game is not on GOG. Just about every focus home interactive/flying wild Hog game is on GoG. This is slap in the face to the DRM-FREE crowd. Don't understand why they made this move all of a sudden.
Same. He has been very off on many games recently. Seems like hes just writing funny one liners and put them all into videos about new IPs where he most likely wont get much backlash.
Add timestamps for a more a "premiere" presentation. You're welcome! :) Hit me up if you want more complex tips beyond basics on how to update the quality of your videos.
I took a break from God of War to play Evil West and its excellent ,..I usually play many games at once a few hours of each ,im enjoying A Plagues Tale Requiem, Gotham Knights, New Tales Borderlands, Modern Warfare 2 Campaign, The Devil in me and of course God of War Ragnarok and now Evil West,last pre-order to pick up is Callisto Protocol next week which looks grear,..I'm very much enjoying each game and their unique gameplay and recommended Evil West as a purchase
Watching this review today and I laughed when Karak said it was a budget game. I wish more people raised awareness on the pricing of games in Australia. Because today, 4 months after release, this game costs $US67.40 on both the PS and Xbox digital stores.
Skill Up said the 3D audio was great and couldn’t believe he said that. Sometimes there is just way to much going on to use audio to your advantage. If there’s two enemies, then yes it helps but when there’s 10 enemies, it’s impossible to use it to your advantage. Audio should’ve been more pronounced when someone’s started an attack from behind. The arrows don’t help either
unpopular opinion 2022 has been the lightest year when it comes to good new games and surprise hits, its almost like the industry is going thru a creativity paralysis
Do not know about coop but this game is super fun single player, straightforward just a fun game, not every game has to reinvent the wheel honestly this game feels like was always intended as a solo experience and probably devs added coop just because nowadays everything has to have some sort of multiplayer. To anyone looking for a single player, really fun, straightforward action experience with no DLC, no grind and no micro transactions or any other bullshit, go get this game. synopsis: You are basically Clint Eastwood kicking vampire butts with an OP gauntlet.
I’m subscribed, have alerts one, and like the vids. Still, I have to search for them. They don’t appear in my normal feed. So odd. Thanks for the awesome reviews. Cheers to great holidays ahead.
Fun is what people forget a video game is meant to be nowadays though. With the sleep inducing movie length cutscenes from a certain studio where the gameplay can be good if you ever get to it unfortunately making people expect the same visual and voice acting quality from AA which often leaves out much of this crap in favour of actual gameplay which should be the main focus of any game if they want it to be fun. The only thing that worries me is the use of puzzles in a game that just doesn't need it. Still it was almost 25% off on Amazon with the Gun dlc which is not a bad buy all things considered in OZ. If you happen to have a Playstation 5 it was even cheaper on Amazon at 32 percent off for some reason. It is only thanks to Indie studios and AA that gaming hasn't been a total bore in the last decade.
As someone who tends to have high end PCs missing text on level loads are a pet peeve. Why not have you press a button to continue? First world problems.
It looks and sounds very much like a modern remake of an x360 game, but more to the tune of DaH or Halo 1 Anniversary than FF7R. Not a bad thing necessarily, but not really tickling my fancy either as an all new IP.
It definitely sounds and looks like a fun game. There’s just nothing here making me need it at full price (which granted, very few to no games do nowadays). I’ll happily wait for a sale or XGP release.
Evil West looks fun and interesting, but not at full price. I'll wait for a sale before I pick it up. Thanks once again Karak for another honest, detailed and unbiased review! I really appreciate the continued hard work!
I just miss them times in the past when I was a gamer and not a bloody "consumer " when games were imaginative, memorable, finished and not just another corporate ploy to fleece our money.
I must be the only one who doesn’t get the Wild West + magic hybrid. The late 1800’s is easily my favorite setting for fiction, but something about magic just throws it off

Well written review, as always. But I think that chillUp got the right take on this one.
But dont be down, you cant win them all.
1886 was unplayable with cinematic FPS cap, idiotic and on rails AI. That game was a travesty. Anything compared to that game should be in "never touch". And Evil West is worth a play for the right reasons.
Now, you might have lost to an Aussie. But dont worry, you are still worthy of love.
Have been playing it for a few hours and honestly have to say after months of trying to find an interesting game this definitely made the cut. Really enjoyable experience so far!
You must have beat almost every other game if this is what’s left
This game was made for you.
If it's a callback to the 360 and PS3 action games of that generation... This is my kind of game. Thanks for the video ACG
Yeah, The Open-World has been overdone. It's time to get back to quality level design.
I think most of these reviewers missed this little detail. I see EW as a throwback to this era. These games were a bit clumsy even back then and even with bigger budgets. These are not meant to be Devil May Cry animation cancel slashers. Still, I wouldn't buy it for 50 bucks either. I would recommend Binary Domain until EW goes on sale
Reminds me of Darkwatch from PS2. I miss these types of games. Can't wait to pick this up ASAP.
Exactly!
@@Yoni123 You thinking linear corridors and constant open combat arenas are quality level design is absolutely hilarious.
I'm getting it. Looks good and less issues than AAA games usually do.
Late 1800s- early 1900s industrial revolution era steampunk with magic and monsters is some of my favorite settings. This, Arcanum, and Grim Dawn are great if anybody has more recs for games or books set in these kind of worlds I'd love to hear them!

Dark Watch is an amazing game
have you checked out steel rising?
There's the miniatures game (40k-like) named Malifaux. Besides the miniatures game, they have a free podcast with stories called Breadside Broadcast.
There the Tabletop RPG called Deadlands.
Also the X-com-like video game Hard West.
Finished Evil West recently, loved every minute of it.
I'm really liking that the story doesn't take itself too seriously, it knows that combat takes the drivers seat. I'll wait for sale, thanks.
If you're on PC you can buy it for less than £30
@cescfabregas9000 It's £33 on CD keys. I've just tried it on my PS5 and it looks absolutely horrendous. I've bought it for PC, wish I'd checked CD keys first.
@Originality is Dead. £29 on ShopTo for PC
@@NoMansLand98 $16 here

Damn 89? The price where I live is 60
It’s a knockoff GoW. If you ever played GoW then watching this gameplay should make it obvious

@@pandagonerogue.140 A game can have flaws outside of bugs and glitches

I love how everyone says your review is on point when no one has even played it yet to know.
Just play GoW. This is a MUCH worse version of that
This game knows what it is and never takes itself more seriously then it should. I'm having blast with it and I HIGHLY recommended to fans of action-brawlers (actually very similar to god of war, just with minimal story, but also no bloat).
Western and fantasy mixed together is my jam
Weird west was another game that mixed the genre and I absolutely loved it
Such an interesting title. Didn’t come in with many expectations so glad it looks like a bit of fun for a sale.
I got it for £40 and it looks fun. It’s not £60-£70 so I’m ok if it’s just a bit of fun.
"Bit of fun"? It is no fun at all!! Gungrave 5x better than this!!
@@wasupman777 lol gungrave is an absolutely terrible terrible game 😭
@@grahamkelly8662 you wish 😂🤣😂🤣😂 this game is trash! Ppl keep their expectations too high these days 🤣😂🤣😂

Smdh.. same thing they said about GK now it’s a good game..I have a ps5 I’m buying it..
Only an occasional viewer, but I do love and respect your reviews immensely. You have your brand and you stick to it. Keep up the good work!
I'm gonna get this because this is just a straight up action game, and I love that.
You won't be disappointed
Will probably receive more DLC than Red Dead Redemption 2. ...At least, it's got that going for itself.
Well, considering RDR2 had no DLC whatsoever…
Damn Rockstar will never recover from that burn
FWH isn't known for releasing a lot of DLC... Shadow Warrior 2 is the kind of game that really could have made good use of new weapons and levels and it basically got nothing.
So then, what does it have going for itself? That it needs more content released? That would make it something it needs, not something it's "got".
You did it. Got me salty. With them truth bombs.
You are by far my favorite game review pal! Another great video, will wait for a sale on this one.

@@icarus2051 I was commenting more on how the OP obviously took it as “don’t play this”
Reminds me a lot of Remnant: From the Ashes, which is one of my absolute favorite games. I'll have to keep my eye on this one for sure.
Remnant is too special. Apart from the TPS aspect, it has nothing to do with it.
Funnily enough, Mules are not always sterile. I did look it up in order to make a story about a Mul MC (from DarkSun, whose name is based on that animal, and whose reproductive ability reads as "sterile." For that exact presumption, which I also held up to the point I researched the topic) There have been several - though still rarer to note - cases of female mules bearing young. Perhaps not to other mules, but that would be the key. They definitely can't breed with each other, because of too many genetic commonalities.

I love the Weird West aesthetic and wish games did more with that setting.
Happy Thanksgiving ACG! Thanks for what you do! And Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
I'd like to see more of this game... with a AAA budget. Probably won't happen unless it does gangbusters. Thanks for the review as always Karak.

No idea how I missed this game completely, didn't know it was in the making 🤔... Thx for great review. Will try to get it for Christmas break
This is going to give me my "Zombie Army" fix. Love that game.
Really hyped for this game. I'm currently really busy playing Darktide with my friends, so I have time till I play this.
Damnit I can’t wait for Darktide to come to consoles. I’ve been pumped for it since I saw those first trailers.
How is it overall?
Glad I preordered this. I respect ACG’s opinion, but I’m taking this with a huge grain of salt.
Same. He has been very off on many games recently. Seems like hes just writing funny one liners and put them all into videos about new IPs where he most likely wont get much backlash.
I'm glad you said it this reminds me of the order, God of war, and rdr
Thanks for the review! Looks like a fun game to play sometime next year after a little polish has gone into it.
The title of this video makes it sound a lot worse than the actual rating. I'm glad it's not a complete dumpster fire.
RDR meets Resident Evil meets GOW - seems like a simple and fun premise.
ya, just returned it and said the same thing "gonna wait for a sale". Cheers man and thanks for the vids!

Where for 30?
Finally, thank you Karak!
you bet
super curious why the "No. Simply no" in the title... makes it sound like its a terrible game, which it clearly isn't.
A multiplayer where waves of monsters came in while you're fighting. Other real people would be fun
Thank you Karak. Guess I’ll wait. Having hope for The Callisto Protocol.
Fun is what people forget a video game is meant to be nowadays though. With the sleep inducing movie length cutscenes from a certain studio where the gameplay can be good if you ever get to it unfortunately making people expect the same visual and voice acting quality from AA which often leaves out much of this crap in favour of actual gameplay which should be the main focus of any game if they want it to be fun. The only thing that worries me is the use of puzzles in a game that just doesn't need it. Still it was almost 25% off on Amazon with the Gun dlc which is not a bad buy all things considered in OZ. If you happen to have a Playstation 5 it was even cheaper on Amazon at 32 percent off for some reason.
It is only thanks to Indie studios and AA that gaming hasn't been a total bore in the last decade.
As someone who tends to have high end PCs missing text on level loads are a pet peeve. Why not have you press a button to continue? First world problems.
I’m still playing it with my brother on Hard. I wasn’t sure about it but I saw the UA-camrs gameplay release the day before launch. I had to buy it.
I may have missed it in the review, but did you say about how many hours of gameplay? Thanks for the great reviews.
It looks and sounds very much like a modern remake of an x360 game, but more to the tune of DaH or Halo 1 Anniversary than FF7R. Not a bad thing necessarily, but not really tickling my fancy either as an all new IP.
It definitely sounds and looks like a fun game. There’s just nothing here making me need it at full price (which granted, very few to no games do nowadays). I’ll happily wait for a sale or XGP release.
4 reviews flicked through so far....and 2 liked it and 2 didn't lol, from the footage definitely got a God of war 2018 combat vibe
Evil West looks fun and interesting, but not at full price. I'll wait for a sale before I pick it up. Thanks once again Karak for another honest, detailed and unbiased review! I really appreciate the continued hard work!
Full price? It's 45 on ps5. That isn't full price. The last of us which is a remake of remake at 70 quid is full price.
@@gimmemoremoney 45? I'm looking at it now and it's 59.00
@@joes4987 yeah that's dollars. I'm in England where we use real money. It's 45 pounds.

Wait for sale then back to GOWR I go
This looks badass, can't wait to try it out.
One for the algorythm. Keep it up ACG!
Great review as always, but with the sales, GOWR & Call is to so close go coming out. Nah gotta GRT this on sale or later on
I’m gonna definitely wait for a sale.
I just miss them times in the past when I was a gamer and not a bloody "consumer " when games were imaginative, memorable, finished and not just another corporate ploy to fleece our money.
I like how if a game prioritizes gameplay over simulating a movie it has no chance of getting any recognition or awards.
I give this game a 10/10 it's fun.
I must be the only one who doesn’t get the Wild West + magic hybrid. The late 1800’s is easily my favorite setting for fiction, but something about magic just throws it off
This game looks fun, let's find out.
