Wait to Buy Evil West -Review
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 20 พ.ย. 2022
- Evil West is coming out soon for PC and consoles. How is it?
Well it's good and bad. Its a callback to the 360 and PS3 era, a mix of the Order 1886 and a budget title. But man it can look ugly. On the other hand sometimes its a great deal of fun.

Well written review, as always. But I think that chillUp got the right take on this one.
But dont be down, you cant win them all.
1886 was unplayable with cinematic FPS cap, idiotic and on rails AI. That game was a travesty. Anything compared to that game should be in "never touch". And Evil West is worth a play for the right reasons.
Now, you might have lost to an Aussie. But dont worry, you are still worthy of love.
If it's a callback to the 360 and PS3 action games of that generation... This is my kind of game. Thanks for the video ACG
Yeah, The Open-World has been overdone. It's time to get back to quality level design.
I think most of these reviewers missed this little detail. I see EW as a throwback to this era. These games were a bit clumsy even back then and even with bigger budgets. These are not meant to be Devil May Cry animation cancel slashers. Still, I wouldn't buy it for 50 bucks either. I would recommend Binary Domain until EW goes on sale
Reminds me of Darkwatch from PS2. I miss these types of games. Can't wait to pick this up ASAP.
Exactly!
@@Yoni123 You thinking linear corridors and constant open combat arenas are quality level design is absolutely hilarious.
Have been playing it for a few hours and honestly have to say after months of trying to find an interesting game this definitely made the cut. Really enjoyable experience so far!
You must have beat almost every other game if this is what’s left
This game was made for you.
Late 1800s- early 1900s industrial revolution era steampunk with magic and monsters is some of my favorite settings. This, Arcanum, and Grim Dawn are great if anybody has more recs for games or books set in these kind of worlds I'd love to hear them!
Xbox/PS2 had a game named Deathwatch in this genre as well, was a fun enough game. Weird West is a bit more traditional but has its fair share of supernatural stuff, and Hard West is an excellent XCOM style game in the genre. If you are a TTRPG afficinado Deadlands is this same setting, very well done.
I wrote a book called The Magician's Sin that is set in an alternate 1930s featuring magic, monsters, mobsters, and an anti-hero with a heart of gold if that sounds interesting to you!
Dark Watch is an amazing game
have you checked out steel rising?
There's the miniatures game (40k-like) named Malifaux. Besides the miniatures game, they have a free podcast with stories called Breadside Broadcast.
There the Tabletop RPG called Deadlands.
Also the X-com-like video game Hard West.
idk if anyone remembers that game on the ps2, Darkwatch, but it feels like its a spiritual successor/inspired by that game. At least, that's what I think of whenever I see this game lol
Finished Evil West recently, loved every minute of it.
This game knows what it is and never takes itself more seriously then it should. I'm having blast with it and I HIGHLY recommended to fans of action-brawlers (actually very similar to god of war, just with minimal story, but also no bloat).
I'm getting it. Looks good and less issues than AAA games usually do.
I'm really liking that the story doesn't take itself too seriously, it knows that combat takes the drivers seat. I'll wait for sale, thanks.
If you're on PC you can buy it for less than £30
@cescfabregas9000 It's £33 on CD keys. I've just tried it on my PS5 and it looks absolutely horrendous. I've bought it for PC, wish I'd checked CD keys first.
@Originality is Dead. £29 on ShopTo for PC
@@NoMansLand98 $16 here
That's because instead of actually trying on the story and making a good game they give you a god of war combat rip off with waves of enemies through the whole game instead of something original and fun happening besides killing waves of enemies
The review surprised me after seeing the title, I was looking forward to this one so I'm glad I watched the full review. Seems like you enjoyed most of it
It's $89 where I live, that might be too much for this one but I really want to play this, looks very promising and I want to support a company that is willing to step up and make a great "original" game despite any limitations they might have compared to AAA premium game companies.
Gonna wait for the sale after Christmas.
Damn 89? The price where I live is 60
It’s a knockoff GoW. If you ever played GoW then watching this gameplay should make it obvious
Sounds like a lot of fun. It’ll be half off by the time March/April rolls around. Will pick it up after my play through of RE4 Remake on PS5. Thanks for the review. But I will definitely be playing this later on, just looks too fun to miss.
Sounds like this will be a cult game.
Flawed yet has a certain charm to it.
How is this game flawed? It’s giving you exactly what the developers planned from the beginning… nothing more nothing less. Broken games go for $60-$70 and people throw their money, but a complete playable game comes out with its set content and it’s a big deal.
@@pandagonerogue.140 exactly. A game releases complete, without bugs, and running overall smoothly while delivering on everything the devs said they would deliver on, and people still find things to nitpick.
It’s not flawed acg just thinks a non round globe = b game graphics
You're acting as a game can be perfect. It can't bro.
@@pandagonerogue.140 A game can have flaws outside of bugs and glitches
You are by far my favorite game review pal! Another great video, will wait for a sale on this one.
Was eagerly awaiting this one. Bit after I heard about the 1080p 60fps on console. I had my doubts. Thanks for confirming them. I will wait a few months and check to see if the game gets better optimized.
Smdh.. same thing they said about GK now it’s a good game..I have a ps5 I’m buying it..
Thank you for these awesome reviews!! I was talking to a guy at work about all the games coming out this month and referenced something you said about Pentiment. He immediately asked if I watch ACG. You’re doing God’s work!
Hahaha that’s awesome
I love how everyone says your review is on point when no one has even played it yet to know.
Just play GoW. This is a MUCH worse version of that
Such an interesting title. Didn’t come in with many expectations so glad it looks like a bit of fun for a sale.
I got it for £40 and it looks fun. It’s not £60-£70 so I’m ok if it’s just a bit of fun.
"Bit of fun"? It is no fun at all!! Gungrave 5x better than this!!
@@wasupman777 lol gungrave is an absolutely terrible terrible game 😭
@@grahamkelly8662 you wish 😂🤣😂🤣😂 this game is trash! Ppl keep their expectations too high these days 🤣😂🤣😂
I have lost count of how many times this video's title has changed
That line about Godhand mixed with Call of Juarez and mules being sterile is a big reason why I subbed and will continue to watch, you certainly have a way with words that I'm a little envious of to be honest.
I gave it a go this weekend and once I got over the graphical shortcomings like “Gotham Knights” I can say I enjoyed the Physics and the awesome Headshot animations 👍🏾.
Great review, I will check this out on a sale. Glad they at least tried something outside of the box given today's gaming environment.
So you let other people tell you how to spend your money? Lol.. man I feel sorry for you
@@bio400 Damn you a hater, they just want someone else's opinion who got a chance to play it early before they decide to purchase a recently released game.
@@aceboogy3284 so I should ask you first if it’s ok to buy the next new Jordan’s? They said GK was bad, now everyone enjoys it
@@bio400Do you preorder games? How does it feel to always buy unfinished games at launch?
@@bio400 yeah if my opinion matters to you. This is a review channel so his opinion is valid to some people.
Thanks for the review! Looks like a fun game to play sometime next year after a little polish has gone into it.
Im 35 and still addicted to classic single player games. Soon done with GOW Ragnarok, now downloading Evil West. Pre-ordered callisto protocol, forspoken and dead island 2. My younger selv thought ”when I get older and make my own money, im gonna spend it on video games“. Why? Because its still fucking fun 🎮
The jingling when running. Nice touch
Nice looking game but waiting for your overall review before I drop money I dont have on this!
Your channel is outstanding may I add.
Western and fantasy mixed together is my jam
Weird west was another game that mixed the genre and I absolutely loved it
Only an occasional viewer, but I do love and respect your reviews immensely. You have your brand and you stick to it. Keep up the good work!
But why does it say no, simply no in the title?
It seems right up my alley when it comes to throwback games. I did love some less popular 360 era games back in the day, and well, there where one of my favorite games actually. Like Inversion, Binary Domain, Red Faction: Armageddon, Singularity, Timeshift, Army of Two, Lost Planet 3, Darksiders or Darkness (and many more, some of them played on a PC though). I will definitely give it a shot. My nostalgia is tingling with this one for sure.
Played evil west yesterday having a blast so far. Got stuck at a hard part but will continue tonight and get further. Can't wait to play this after work in a few hours.
No idea how I missed this game completely, didn't know it was in the making 🤔... Thx for great review. Will try to get it for Christmas break
I’m subscribed, have alerts one, and like the vids. Still, I have to search for them. They don’t appear in my normal feed.
So odd.
Thanks for the awesome reviews. Cheers to great holidays ahead.
Will probably receive more DLC than Red Dead Redemption 2. ...At least, it's got that going for itself.
Well, considering RDR2 had no DLC whatsoever…
Damn Rockstar will never recover from that burn
FWH isn't known for releasing a lot of DLC... Shadow Warrior 2 is the kind of game that really could have made good use of new weapons and levels and it basically got nothing.
So then, what does it have going for itself? That it needs more content released? That would make it something it needs, not something it's "got".
You did it. Got me salty. With them truth bombs.
I appreciate you're reviews. You are straight up and I love it.
Thanks. I'll be waiting for your The Callisto Protocol review.
Hey man, thanks for this. I just watched your impressions video this morning because I couldn't find any reviews I trust to help me decide if i wanted to buy it or not. Glad you covered this my dude!
I'd like to see more of this game... with a AAA budget. Probably won't happen unless it does gangbusters. Thanks for the review as always Karak.
Enjoyed the review. Don't think this game's for me, but could be fun down the road after it goes on sale.
This looks like it turned out like I expected it to and I'm fine w that. I'll probably still wait for a price drop, but I will dig into it eventually. I love western settings with fantasy elements.
Reminds me a lot of Remnant: From the Ashes, which is one of my absolute favorite games. I'll have to keep my eye on this one for sure.
Remnant is too special. Apart from the TPS aspect, it has nothing to do with it.
I love the Weird West aesthetic and wish games did more with that setting.
Happy Thanksgiving ACG! Thanks for what you do! And Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
Great review.
I was thinking about buying Evil West on launch, but I'll wait till it goes sale since Callisto Protocol is releasing next week.
You should buy it,it's a great game that really enjoyable, perfect game to hold you over until Dec 2 when Callisto Protocol releases
ya, just returned it and said the same thing "gonna wait for a sale". Cheers man and thanks for the vids!
Got it on steam sale for $24.99 looking forward to playing it
I am in for anything that doesn’t take inspiration from Ubisoft’s RPG model 😜 we are blessed to get such kinda game in current days where micro-transactions/live service is the only motto of game developers
Game looks really fun. Might be something I pick up after I play GOW. Thanks for the quality review.
I took a break from God of War to play Evil West and its excellent ,..I usually play many games at once a few hours of each ,im enjoying A Plagues Tale Requiem, Gotham Knights, New Tales Borderlands, Modern Warfare 2 Campaign, The Devil in me and of course God of War Ragnarok and now Evil West,last pre-order to pick up is Callisto Protocol next week which looks grear,..I'm very much enjoying each game and their unique gameplay and recommended Evil West as a purchase
You know what, I fucking love this game. having a blast as its PS2 era resurrected!!
This is going to give me my "Zombie Army" fix. Love that game.
Add timestamps for a more a "premiere" presentation. You're welcome! :) Hit me up if you want more complex tips beyond basics on how to update the quality of your videos.
Bought it and love it !!
I saw the Gameplay Overview Trailer and the Extended Gameplay Trailer and I did like what I saw, its my style of game, I can see myself having fun with it!!! 🤩
Maybe I will Pre-order it? 🤔 I will wait until the last day and make my decision 😜
I love how my two favorite reviewers (you and Ralph) have tow very different veiws on this game. He is glowing about it. Luckly for me he said it ran and looked great on his PC (which has similar specs to mine and SteamDeck) so I am happy about that... I'll get it on PC even though I had wanted to get it on PS5. But gonna get it for sure on PC!
In any case, thank you for the informative review!
Thank you Karak. Guess I’ll wait. Having hope for The Callisto Protocol.
I may have missed it in the review, but did you say about how many hours of gameplay? Thanks for the great reviews.
Really hyped for this game. I'm currently really busy playing Darktide with my friends, so I have time till I play this.
Damnit I can’t wait for Darktide to come to consoles. I’ve been pumped for it since I saw those first trailers.
How is it overall?
I'm gonna get this because this is just a straight up action game, and I love that.
You won't be disappointed
Great review as always, but with the sales, GOWR & Call is to so close go coming out. Nah gotta GRT this on sale or later on
Damn, I was really looking forward to this one but almost every game I’m excited for has been a miss. Love the reviews, I watch every single one for any game I’m interested. Thanks for the hard work!
Other reviewers loved it. Prolly one to decide on for yourself.
ACG seems to be the only reviewer that didnt like it lol
Would be great if there was a demo or something.
You should play it, don't forget that reviews are to be taken as others opinions so we can create a valance of what the game is on our head, but if you really want to play a game just do it.
why u lot sayin he didn't like it? i mean he didnt love it but he did say multiple times that even though it's probably not winning any awards he still liked it and enjoyed it
@@icarus2051 I was commenting more on how the OP obviously took it as “don’t play this”
Looks like a nice title to pick up in a few months whilst I wait for the ps5 to be more available. Giving me some slight Darkwatch vibes.
Already pre ordered my copy lol. Ready to play it!!
Looks fun overall. I’m sure I’ll get some enjoyment out of it when it drops on ps plus next year.
Man, your review is right on the nose. I'm loving the game at the moment.
been subbed to you for idek how long and you just never miss. such great reviews. thanks for your hard work.
Game has been getting good reviews. Only ones I have seen give it bad is TH-cam reviews. Which I find strange be cause most of the time TH-camrs are champions of games like this.
I bought it, can’t wait to play it.
Been waiting for this one!
I'm glad you said it this reminds me of the order, God of war, and rdr
Finally, thank you Karak!
you bet
60 seconds in and I see God Hand
Did You change your title? Watched the video when you dropped it and now the title has changed, thumbnail aswell.. which is misleading, I see others are pointing it out. Hope noone "hacked your review"..🙂
Mine actually arrived from Best Buy today. A day early surprisingly. Can’t wait to get home from work and give it a go.
its a fun game so far. it feels like a new game/classic. playing it right now
I was expecting some comparison to Remnant From The Ashes just from the impressions I've gotten from the game so far, kinda surprised it was never brought up even with the multiplayer note on the screen. Maybe I just missed the mark with that assumption though, idk
Because they're not the same type of games.
Hey dude, liked the review, thanks, but can you clarify the video title vs your end verdict?
Yeah, I was expecting a total disaster after that.
@@thisguydan Yeah…hard to tell tone in that text I guess
I'm so happy this seems like it's decent, that first cinematic trailer they showed gave me absolutely nothing, didn't even make it clear what kind of genre the gameplay would be.
Remnant from the ashes re-skin, I enjoyed that one so I will probably enjoy this one, too
Remnant has way more replayability.
One for the algorythm. Keep it up ACG!
RDR meets Resident Evil meets GOW - seems like a simple and fun premise.
This looks badass, can't wait to try it out.
Preordered physical copy few weeks ago, getting it tomorrow ...
Funnily enough, Mules are not always sterile. I did look it up in order to make a story about a Mul MC (from DarkSun, whose name is based on that animal, and whose reproductive ability reads as "sterile." For that exact presumption, which I also held up to the point I researched the topic) There have been several - though still rarer to note - cases of female mules bearing young. Perhaps not to other mules, but that would be the key. They definitely can't breed with each other, because of too many genetic commonalities.
Good review! Glad I watched. Was nervous so I didn’t preorder
Glad I could help!
Wait for sale then back to GOWR I go
The flat-earther globe joke got me 😆
Watching this review today and I laughed when Karak said it was a budget game. I wish more people raised awareness on the pricing of games in Australia. Because today, 4 months after release, this game costs $US67.40 on both the PS and Xbox digital stores.
I’m gonna definitely wait for a sale.
Glad I preordered this. I respect ACG’s opinion, but I’m taking this with a huge grain of salt.
Same. He has been very off on many games recently. Seems like hes just writing funny one liners and put them all into videos about new IPs where he most likely wont get much backlash.
I’m still playing it with my brother on Hard. I wasn’t sure about it but I saw the TH-camrs gameplay release the day before launch. I had to buy it.
erron black from mortal kombat got his own game now lol
I really wanna get this game but I’m debating on getting it. I’m thinking about getting it as a Christmas gift. There’s just no other game out there I would want other than this game. So why not. I feel like I should wait for a sale but I don’t see why I shouldn’t get it
The review god has spoken!! 'ammo' wait for a sale!
Skill Up said the 3D audio was great and couldn’t believe he said that. Sometimes there is just way to much going on to use audio to your advantage. If there’s two enemies, then yes it helps but when there’s 10 enemies, it’s impossible to use it to your advantage. Audio should’ve been more pronounced when someone’s started an attack from behind. The arrows don’t help either
Thanks for ur review I guess I’ll wait for sale.
can't wait to play it tomorrow helpful it runs good on the deck
I would like to see other one with more of a serious story and more open world and they may seriously be onto something
Story is serious enough with good balance and the linear varied stages each have unique atmosphere ,hidden secrets paths and plenty of engaging g encounter,..not every game needs open world bloat,..while there is some great open world games a linear engaging action game is usually much better if done right,..I would say they are already on to something with Evil West as is perfectly..
As someone who tends to have high end PCs missing text on level loads are a pet peeve. Why not have you press a button to continue? First world problems.
Ill wait for a sale but i will pick it up for sure
Enjoy it when you do!
I want to get this but Callisto Protocol is next week, I get this on sale
Somehow I'm getting Darksiders vibes from this game.
That flamethrower looks like good fun!
