Evil West feels like a PS3 game in a modern coat of paint which may dissuade some people from giving it the time of day but they are doing themselves a disservice that’s for sure. The unique setting of Evil West really does make it stand apart from other current gen games. Said setting allows the game to feel quite original and allowing it to breathe in its own space while creating a fun narrative and an enjoyable romp through its story beats. Gameplay evolves as the game continually hands you weapons and upgrades for the weapons through the duration of the adventure. Combat can feel repetitive especially in the middle chapters but overall is enjoyable enough to push you to finish the game. The music is atmospheric and works well for the scenes and characters it portrays, although it is a shame that it is not online at all for the average persons listening pleasure. Evil West has made a name for itself with its concoction of setting, story, and gameplay that you cannot get from any other modern game.

Beautiful game, but repetitive. The combat is horrible, slow. The story is bad and the characters even worse.

Es un juego entretenido, pero tambíen entiendo a la gente que lo dejó, en lo que respecta a la jugabilidad y mecanicas es tosco de a madres y la dificultad radica en hordas de enemigos y para acabarla de fregar en su mayoría esponja de balas, por lo que se hace hasta cierto punto repetitivo y monotono. En cuanto al combate lo que llega a joder un poco es que comparandolo con DOOM Eternal donde la movilidad lo es todo, aquí tambien es parte importante, pero lo echa medio a perder el que las habilidades tengan una recarga y sobre todos las armas que te tienes que quedar literalmente quieto para que se complete la animación de recarga, creo que esto ultimo se pudo haber compensado con algún perk en el arbol de habilidades que cubriera dicha carencia, para terminar con la jugabilidad los controles se llegan a sentir muy incomodos, cómo que RB para golpes, y lo malo es que no se cuenta con mapeos de botones más diversos.
En cuanto a la historia nada del otro mundo, la estetica Western es de lo más atractivo y es por lo que principalmente lo termine.
No he jugado ningún God of War, y lo poco que se es por Gameplays, pero considerar a este un "God of War Western" es más que un clickbait que tristemente hace que la gente espere mucho más de este titulo.

A really unique and fun hack and slash game that is a blast to hop in and play. My only problem is the game can get annoying at times. Instead of doing things like adding aspects to arenas or combat that make it more difficult, they just double the amount of enemies attacking you.
