Stop the bartender, don’t even try to pour. Send a whole bottle right here and fast. I smell those corpses all the way to the living room, those cold bastards are just around the corner. Thank you.

How small I grew up in the glare of a CRT TV screen from which Howe shone down on me from across the Croatian prairie Vignettes. But I admit, although I always liked the subject of westerns, it was a bit old even for me. Such Blade, I’m a little closer in age and actions. However, one day I found out that the development studio Flying wild boar makes a combination of the wild west with vampires, it suddenly became for me the most anticipated game of the year.

And the best part about it all is that she really didn’t disappoint at all. So, prepare the garlic, sharpen the wooden stakes, and draw out the silver swords. Wait, this nonsense won’t help you much. Prepare your fists, dynamite and a good fight. The review of Evil West is about to begin.

Evil West is a story-driven third-person shooter. Jesse Rentierfame vampire hunter Rentier Institute founded to fight sanguisuge, that is, blood-sucking monsters and their minions. Jesse, along with his partner Edgar, is on the trail of a mysterious D’Abana, a supreme vampire who is trying to establish a new world order and subjugate most of humanity once and for all. I won’t pull you by the nose, the plot here is strictly linear and a bit fucked up. So I recommend not to wait for a well-developed plot backstory of the main characters and villains. Evil West focuses mainly on writing strong characters, rough action, and fast pace. With good acting, this works great.

I love my beer as much as I love my vampires. Cold twelve is best.

Sorry for the more clumsy interpretation of an old joke. I wanted to choose Felicity D’Abano to talk about the characters. It’s just that there’s always something a little scary about undead children. Overall, the developers deserve a lot of credit for their work on the characters. Evil West has a very unique graphic style that relies heavily on the strangely “rather ugly” designs of most of the characters. Including the main character. The villains are slimy, the main characters are gross, and it actually pairs really well with the wild west and vampires. The only pity is that excellent cutscenes in the game are sometimes replaced by NPC characters in a regular game, who do not even open their mouths when talking.

Stop talking, I came here to drink whiskey and kick ass, and I’m almost out of my mind. So, whiskey, so… let’s just talk about the combat system.

The main content of the whole game is the gradual passage of individual locations, often such small arenas, where hordes of merciless enemies will be waiting for you. Combat is one of the best parts of the game. Evil West will offer you a very solid set of different attacks, weapons and abilities, as in Closesoon distance. I have probably never experienced such smooth transitions between melee and ranged combat in any other game. Most of the time, I look for two or three strong abilities in skill trees, agonize over them before unlocking them, and then lay them down behind me like a memorized poem. But in the undead west, this won’t last long. More powerful abilities like shotgun blast have longer cooldowns and the game forces you to combine each ability well. So, first shoot, lift the zombie into the air, drop a colt into it, fly in, switch to a crossbow, shoot, jump on the enemy, stun with electricity and so on.

I usually have control problems in action games. Quite often I can’t even remember how to do a heavy attack and block, but not with Evil West. Offhand, I know that E is Colt, R Kick, F Shotgun, C Heal, V EMP, T Ultimate, Q Shield, Q with forward lunge and pull back. And I haven’t listed everything yet. It is a pity that the above words also did not come to my mind so quickly.

OPPORTUNITIES SEEMS TOO MUCH, BUT IT’S NOT!

The game showers you with individual abilities really fast. At first, it even bothered me a little, but the individual buttons and their functions make sense and penetrate the skin. You may even regret that you don’t have enough money and points to unlock even more. But after that, you will get even more pleasure from the study. I already mentioned that the individual levels are more like arena sequence, but that doesn’t mean there’s nothing to explore here. The design of the locations is very good and the developers have a lot of fun hiding small treasures and sometimes entertaining you. You will still know that you are strong line game and sometimes you’ll see enemies just waiting for you to activate a checkpoint, but that doesn’t detract from the experience in any way, and you’re often more likely to enjoy whatever different environments the developers were able to prepare for us.

However, the enemies themselves are a little disappointing. The first half of the game is great. You meet new monsters that appear as bosses for the first time, and as time goes by, you get a great feeling when you can fight them off with a few hits. Only later do they start to run out.

I’m not necessarily saying that there should be twice as many monsters in the game, definitely not. Some are just a little annoying after the twentieth time. Worst beast ever strange yellow flying slime. If eggs fly around her, she gives invulnerability all animals nearby. However, he can replenish them very quickly and is difficult to hit with ground attacks. After many deaths, I just came to the conclusion that whatever happens after me, this bitch must die or I will die myself.

TECHNICAL PROBLEMS THAT NO LONGER EXIST

I have very minor complaints about the technical condition of the game. But please take me with a grain of salt because I was still playing a significant part of the game. before the first day patch. Once the game crashed when I turned on the recording. I was very rarely able to see through some textures, and about twice the enemy was out of combat. However, you cannot leave the location until the end of the fight, so a reboot will be required by default. However, I have always managed to kill the enemy despite the obstacles with a combination of abilities from a distance, so I consider these failures to be quite bearable. It was much more unpleasant when I several times quickly enough she didn’t change weaponswhich particularly bothered me when I had to react quickly in a moving wheelchair.

Another more positive moment is connected with the weapon. The game has a very natural aim assist system. It’s clear to me that this can annoy stalwart PC master racers, but you can turn it off in the difficulty settings from the get-go. I, on the other hand, appreciated that it made the melee/ranged alternation even more fluid and probably very accessible to console players.

The Czech localization also deserves a lot of praise. Although there are not many texts in the game, but it is for the game that you are going to turn off the brain, it fits. I immediately preferred to appreciate the scraps of letters that helped complete the story when studying the maps. Most of them have even been made more enjoyable by voicing the characters behind the notes. Every time I found such a message from Felicity, I got a little chilly. But it is certainly the well-chosen musical accompaniment that is to blame for this.

Overall, Evil West is an unexpected surprise that shows just how good it is today. indie games can provide in competition with template-like three-dot headers. The game has great pace. nice play time around 17 hours and actually this is the first game i tried the new game mode plus and i was tempted to play it again just to open some more hidden places and ideally unlock all the skills. So, on behalf of the Indiana team, I recommend 8 points out of 10.

Verdict

Evil West offers an unorthodox combination of the wild west with a vampire theme and does it perfectly in every way. The game has an incredibly exciting combat system that combines melee and ranged combat. You’ll enjoy this ride from start to finish, at a pace that many AAA games would envy.
