Weird West: Definitive Edition

一首来自旧西部的狂野诗歌。

Genuinely the worst combat/targeting that I have ever experienced :L Just remove melee and add friendly fire perks or something :L

This is one of those games where everyone asks "why is there no 'average' rating on Steam?". It's an RPG of sorts, there's some very straight decision trees, a very streamlined story and a consistent narrative style. The drawings and the grafic style are nice, the story and setting are proper weird west. The world is of an okay size. It is just all a little bland. Equipment and leveling are not much of a surprise, the random elements, the quests and the slightly randomized world have too few options, the cities are mostly copy & paste. Basically, everything seems to cry out "gimme some love, I promise I'll be good". The environment interactions look like fun ideas - right until you try to snipe an enemy, you cannot avoid that lamp hanging in the way and a second later, you got a wildfire, a bunch of angry people and two vendettas. Same with the progression: Rewarding exploration over killing is novel. Except there is not much to explore, or better, there are lots of areas to explore, but they all look similar. Some more variations of world elements, more side plots, more of everything, and this would have been nice. Heck, even plain old better mod support would have helped, because this game has good bones, just very little meat. If you just squint a bit, you can see how an engaged and enabled community might have made this a fun game. Finally, a personal note: Dear plot writers, if you feel the need to kill my kid in the first seconds of the story, you just have to learn to write better. Yeah, you got some reasons in the end, but any variation of "orcs killed my family" as backstory is uninspired, to say the least, and as a father, this infuriates me. You're not even doing much with it, except for one closing line.

довольно посредственная игра, геймплей полностью раскрывается на втором часу,много багов, ну хоть музыка хорошая

Kind of on the fence with this one. The design of the game is fantastic with a good amount of characters and choices - I really like that you can just flat out murder the main characters if you really want to. Where the game falls a little flat is in the combat. I didn't mind the controls like a lot of people, but I did mind how bad the AI could be and how it was easy to cheese a lot of enemies. To start with, when in stealth/undetected you can attack and one shot enemies through walls. It makes it really easy to take out a group without issue. Follow that up with the typical "give up on searching" and really poor companion AI/control just takes away so much from the game. I got this on sale and did enjoy most of my time with it, but after finishing the first character's story I don't really have much of a desire to continue. Edit: I decided to play some more and spent time with the next 2 characters as well. I did discover a few more issues: [list] [*]I really wanted to kill a few characters (like the pit fighting owner) but was not allowed to. [*]Combat is pretty janky/broken. The ability to take out enemies through walls is super broken. It also makes it so that explosions/AOE attacks can go through walls and injure friendly NPCs which is annoying. There are animation issues as well where every single sneaky melee attack when playing as the native american the enemy would suddenly start walking after triggering the hit. Also when taking on multiple enemies, the top down view with kb/m becomes very non-intuitive, probably because when aiming the camera becomes fixed and aiming becomes more "dual stick." It probably should stay over the shoulder of the character [*]You visit multiple locations multiple times, having to fight different characters in them. Not a big issue but makes the game less interesting. [/list] I think this has the bones of a good game, but is lacking polish. I still recommend, but only on a deep discount. It has its fun and interesting moments, but also some broken features.

Хренотень. Стелс сломан. Не понятно видно ли тебя или нет, Тиммейты бегают перед лицом врагом и дохнут, иногда перестают стрелять. Блядская перезарядка оружия, какая же она долгая. Из плюсов игры это прохождение одних и тех же локаций за разных персонажей со способностями, которые нужно открывать.

You can enter houses through their chimneys. PEAK!

This game oozes with its own style and the combat compliments it well with solid RPG mechanics blended with a rogue like element. Traveling to different places is never the same and reminds me of old school Fallout 1 and 2 style of traveling. You pick a destination and days will progress and who knows what you may encounter along the way to your destination. The combat is brutal complimented with a full on gore system and an awesome art style. Definitely worth checking out if you are a fan of top down perspective! <3
