West of Dead
2020
West of Dead is probably the worst roguelike I have ever tried so far, and I am not even kidding.
While the art style could be a positive, I found it very distracting and borderline annoying. The camera is placed in all the wrong places, the shooting feels slugish and unfun, the VA from Ron Perlman feels like he did this for a bottle of whiskey or something, because he sounds so tired and bored out of his mind.
You can easily do everything in this game under 7 hours, if you are not bored already, so if you want to experience style over substance, go on, try it.

So good that I named my son Wander.
This game doesn't even need a review here, what more could already be said for this? It is a feat in every department, narratively, technically, visually, it just keeps getting better and better and making you go HOW THE F U C K did this run on a PS2???? timeless
