    One of the year's most shocking surprises gives us both an entertaining story and incredibly fun and constantly evolving gameplay.

    Smashing your way through hordes of vampires in a style reminiscent of Gears of War and Godhand, Evil West is a limb-tearing, frenetically great time. It’s a ridiculously over-the-top title with intentionally garish dialogue, balance issues and some questionable decision choices, but when you’re mashing a 10-punch combo into a bloodsucker’s deservingly battered face, you’ll forget all about logic in favour of a rip-roaring good time.

    Evil West is an enjoyable experience that allows smooth transitions between combos and abilities with a well-made arsenal of weapons. It is far from perfect but has a solid base that can be built on.

    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.

    By blending B-movie-fantasy and frantic combat, Evil West remains a mostly enjoyable action romp, despite its shallow writing and dull level design. You might wait for a little price drop though.

    Evil West is not a cornerstone of the action genre, but it is a product supported by a solid and fun combat system. Facing hordes of monstrous creatures with a vast and customizable arsenal through numerous upgrades is rewarding enough to overshadow the not excellent technical realization, as well as a narrative that is not without flaws. Not to be negligible is also the inclusion in the package of an online cooperative mode which could be the perfect excuse to relive Jesse Reinter's epic alongside a friend, perhaps to unlock every single secret and make the slaughters even more fun. monsters.

    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.

Hızlı, keyifli, bol çeşitli dövüş mekanikleri oldukça eğlenceli. Açık dünya vesaire gibi boyunu aşan işlere girmemiş, düz ilerlemeli. Arada çok baist bulmacalar var, onun dışında tam gaz aksiyon.

    God of War'un yumruklusu, üzerine Rdr'nin skini geçirilmiş hali ve Doom'un temposu. Saf aksiyon oyunu isteyenlere bire bir. Combat çeşitliliği, yetenek ağacı, skiller bence tam yerinde. Hatta fazla. Zira oyun bittiğinde açamadığım bazı skiller vardı. Skiller oyunda oynanışı değiştiriyor. Sadece vurduğunuz hasarlardan ibaret değildi. Bazı skiller haritada sandıklara gizlenmiş. Bulamadıklarım oldu. Oyun ilerledikçe üzerinize skill ve yeni silah atmaya devam ediyor. Bu anlamda tatmin edici.

    Ancak aynı çeşitlilik düşmanlar açısından geçerli değil. Bir iki ana karakter dışındaki boss'lar ileride normal düşman olarak karşınıza çıkıyor. Bu da tekrara neden oluyor.

    Oyun arena mantığı şeklinde. Boş alanda ilerle, geniş alanda sürüyle üzerine gelen düşmanları öldür, tekrar ilerle vesaire. Bu arena kısımlarında bazen o kadar çok düşman geliyor ki oyunun temposuna yetişemiyorsunuz. Ellerimin ağrıdığını hissettim.

    Hikayesi fena değil. Hollywood aksiyon filmi kalitesinde. Teması güzel, vampirler ve kovboylar.

    Neticede oynaması oldukça keyifli bir oyun olmuş. Aksiyona doyuruyor.    … Expand

Well made cut-scenes. Good dialogues and characters. But I didn't like the gameplay. I'm tired of having to be a "keyboard pianist". This abundance of skills and weapons in almost everything makes you beat with your fists. And either do it like a pianist or go through the whole game with the same movements. No middle solutions. The game is generally good, but I'm just tired. I went through so many games that I wanted something just a little bit better in game-play mechanics. The rest was interesting.… Expand

El apartado artistico como el diseño de los escenarios son hermosos y creativos, especialmente en la segunda mitad del juego, espero felizmente una segunda entrega con el aspecto de la exploracion mejorado y una ligera mayor versatilidad a la hora de combatir… Expand

I was really looking forward to this one and was pleasantly surprised by the excellent performance on PC which nowadays is very rare. That was were my enjoyment ended. Lazy level design, lazy enemy design and encounters would be an understatement. I do not want to fight the same 3 or 4 enemies for the entirety of the game over and over. Even the mini bosses were reused and turned into mobs that appear over and over again sometimes 3 or 4 in the same arena. It was boring and frustrating and I would not recommend this game. Not to mention the terrible story.… Expand
