Evil West is a game worthy of 2022 visually but remains in the 90's when it comes to gameplay. It ruins a gripping story, an exciting concept, beautiful graphics and voiceovers with repetitive arena style fights and extremely linear gameplay. Wait for a sale if you want to nail some vampires to the wall.
After crazy Shadow Warrior 3 and toned down Trek to Yomi the Warsaw-based Flying Wild Hog studio offers a new IP that combines Wild West, horror and steampunk. It’s an explosive concoction with a surprisingly complex combat system, but if slaying monsters is not enough for you and you expect a wider range of experiences, Evil West is not a game for you.
Evil West has done something fairly remarkable by dragging the sort of shlocky, B-tier, 360-era action games into 2022 with basically all of the quality-of-life upgrades you’d expect from a modern title. This is how you remember games of 10-odd years ago, as opposed to how they actually play now.

Neden bilmiyorum ama yaratık dövdüğümüz ve öldürdüğümüz oyunlar bana hep sıkıcı gelmiştir, Oyun gerçekten aşşırı hoşuma gitti, Neden bu kadar kötülendiğini ya da ortalama altı bırakıldığını anlamadım oyunun ama gerçekten harika bir oyun, oynanış olarakta harika hissettirdi, grafikler deseniz kötü değil ama ağam şağam kadar iyi de değil, ben şahsen oyuna bayıldım ve hâla oynuyorum, türle alakası olan herkes kesinlikle denemeli, rdr2'yi bitirdiğimden bu yana hiç bir oyun zevk vermemişti ama bu oyun çok eğlenceli, hikaye olarakta pek bir şey beklemeyin ama oynanış, oyuncuları, dublajları vs. hepsiyle tek kelimeyle harika. Oynamak isteyen varsa mutlaka denemeli bir şans vermeli diye düşünüyorum, kritiklerde göründüğü gibi böyle 1-5 puanlık bir oyun asla değil, en az 7 puanı hak ediyor, Ben 3 puanı kestim o da türkçe olmamasından dolayı ve leş gibi bir checkpoint sistemi olmasından dolayı, 2022 yılında checkpoint diye bir şey icat edilmedi mi yahu? inanılmaz zor bir bossla dövüşüyorsun ve üstüne ölünce checkpoint yok taa en baştan başlıyorsun. 7,5 puan olsaydı 7,5 verirdim, onlar dışında çok iyi bir oyun olduğunu düşünüyorum, ortalama bir optimizasyonu var

For today's standards infected by MODERN AUDIENCES crap, this game is a 10/10. Great pace, All the bosses are great, with the exception of Brunch and the last one, not because they are annoying, because it takes time and patience and for a father of two old men, playing on EVIL is a little bit complicated, still, I did it. I'm in my second playthrough playing in EVIL difficulty and New Game+ with all the upgrades and weapons from the get-go. Graphics are nice, very well optimized for todays graphic's card. Running on 3060 mobile laptop, Ryzen 9 5900HX 16gb of ram, At 1440p everything maxed out, with DLSS in QUALITY. Running beyond smooth. No rip cups, nothing. Great game. If there's something, or any other difficulty after this I would play again. For sure. I hope they continue the franchise someday.

Evil West es una de las sorpresas más gratas de los últimos años, una mezcla explosiva que recuerda a la ambientación de Red Dead Redemption pero con la visceralidad y el estilo de combate de los últimos God of War. Es un título que, sin duda, no ha tenido el renombre ni la repercusión que se merece. Gráficamente es excelente, con un diseño artístico de un "Lejano Oeste oscuro" que entra por los ojos desde el primer minuto. Aunque la historia es normalita, cumple perfectamente su función de mantenerte pegado al mando para ver qué nueva abominación te toca **** corazón del juego es su sistema de combate, que es simplemente espectacular: muy sólido, completo, fluido y, sobre todo, desafiante. Cada enemigo es diferente, lo que te obliga a estar cambiando de estrategia y a aprovechar un sistema de mejoras y habilidades muy amplio que te permite personalizar tu forma de repartir leña. Aunque se disfruta muchísimo en solitario, el modo cooperativo está muy bien implementado; me encanta que el juego sea capaz de aumentar la dificultad para que, al ser dos jugadores, el reto no desaparezca. Es un combate que te atrapa por lo bien hecho que está, y aunque su duración se puede hacer algo corta, la intensidad de cada minuto hace que valga totalmente la pena. Un 8,25 seguro.

An excellent action game with terrific combat and spot-on controls. The campaign is at a decent length, but there should have been more to do after clearing it.

I was hesitant about Evil West. Early reviews didn’t sell me, and I kept pushing it down my backlog, unsure if it was worth the time. In hindsight, I regret waiting so long. This game is an absolute blast, and I wish I had played it **** fun kicks in once you get the hang of the game’s mechanics and start playing it the way it was meant to be played. It’s fast-paced, satisfying, and genuinely rewarding once you embrace its rhythm. The combat is chaotic in the best way, combining brutal melee attacks with over-the-top gadgets that keep the action **** then there’s the story. It has this gritty, straightforward charm that reminded me of Gears of War 1. It doesn’t try to cater to a modern audience or cram in unnecessary fluff. Instead, it doubles down on delivering a pulpy, action-packed narrative that keeps you engaged without feeling forced or bloated.Evil West doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but it doesn’t need to. It knows exactly what it wants to be: a fun, unapologetic throwback to when games were just about having a good time.

Evil West is very much like a cowboy version of Shadow Warrior 3 that has increased action content. Its combat system is well designed. There are various gun skills which can bring players fresh experiences, but there is not much depth in level design, the puzzle-solving parts also slow down the rhythm. What's more, you can really feel that Evil West lacks polishing in many details, which makes the quality of the game unsatisfying.

Poor writing and some technical issues are not enough to hold back what is otherwise a blast to play. Solo or co-op if a turn-your-brain-off type of kill-a-thon sounds appealing I think this one is worth it.

Evil West offers a nice hunt, even if not all is perfect. This somewhat classic FPS provides a lot of much fun killing vampires.

Brutal action shooter with a complex combat system and some flaws in balancing, storytelling and technology.

Dumb, fun and full of western slang, Evil West has snuck out into a crowded release season with a unique selling point: fun, with very little nonsense.

Игра пройдена на уровне сложности – Зло. От создателей Hard Reset и ремейка Shadow Warrior очень хотелось получить действительно стоящую игру, но, по всей видимости времена, когда команда пыталась делать настоящие игры канули в лету, и это было заметно уже по 2 части Shadow Warrior, желание денег (само по себе понятное) любой ценой пересилило желание делать настоящие игры и их проекты стали просто попыткой заработать, пытаясь угодить всем и соблюдением всех тенденций. Результат, крайне средние проекты от сбора электронного мусора до данной игры. Неплохая история, погрязла в крайне не точном соснольном управлении, не возможности полностью исследовать не боевые локации, шкурках для главного героя и крайне детской-упрощенной подачи этой самой истории, когда то что происходит на экране с действующими лицами не вызывает никаких эмоций настолько всё предсказуемо и банально и служит лишь ширмой для пиу-пиу, которое в виду заточенности под геймпад (медленное и не точное управление) порой лишь сильно раздражает. Оценка: 7/10

It made me to spend my time and money in vain. Horrible story, bad gameplay (people say it’s GoW+RDR2 but no that’s another level: JUST HORRIBLE), worst boss fight and map designs… I can’t believe that it made in 2020s because it looks like some of 2010s games that you don’t need to use your brain. You’re doing the same things like 7-8 hours like killing same bosses, solving same puzzles (charge the generator and go on in 500 times) with bad mechanics. I only loved the beginning of the game, next parts are just horrible.

I wanted to love on this game so much, but those bugs, THOSE BUGS. Are horrendous and they have not decided to fix it. It basically isn't playable. I hope they make a sequel and have better alpha/beta playtesting to get those bugs out. Other than that, brillant and fun concpet, just not able to enjoy it.

SummaryA dark menace consumes the Old West. In solo or coop, fight with style in visceral, explosive combat against bloodthirsty monstrosities. Eradicate the vampiric hordes with your lightning-fueled gauntlet and become a Wild West Superhero.
