Just received a pre-order email from GOG stating that Weird West won't be available on their store until late April. Figures... at least they sent a download code for the first two Desperados.

Hate to parrot the popular opinion, but I would've bought this day 1 if it had chargen and one character only.

Probably just as well, I don't really have time to take a decent shit these days, much less play more games.

Raf just can't catch a break, delivers one of the best games in the last decade and never gets proper credit. First Prey, now Weird West...

Haven't played the game but 67 on metacritics? Fuck off with this shit

Fucking game devs who don't test the taskbar in any position other than the bottom of the screen. Have to change my taskbar settings or else it sticks to my screen and pushes the game window to the side.

Okay I was lining up a shot on someone and they threw a stick of dynamite at me as I fired, and I hit the dynamite instead of them blowing it up in their face. 10/10 perfect game.

Just played an hour or so - I think I'll have some fun with this game. The menu is a bit cut off on my screen though and changing res doesn't seem to fix it.

The reviews all say the combat controls are terrible (should have made a turn-based game or a first person shooter Raph) and even with five character campaigns it's only 20 hours long if you do everything. :M

Child of Malkav said he took close to 50 hours, and that was with rushing the last two characters. I would be more inclined to believe him. Also, have seen several other places cite 40ish hours as the play length.

EDIT: Also seems they've added an additional difficulty mode since he played. He said there were only three originally, so I'm assuming Very Hard is the new addition.

Generally speaking the reviewers at the big game sites are paedophiles and not to be trusted. Combat is absolutely fine for anyone with hands on their mouse and keyboard. Might I suggest they git gud?

Okay after 2,5 hours i could say im in love with this little gem.
Game unfolds it's greatness as you progress further, starting from being kind of isometric shooter to full scale crpg.
Worth of your time and money, give it a shot.
I can recommend it . This and Black Geyser are my favourites this month.
Looks like 5 different playthroughs are coming here. I just started with default character.

Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Game's fun, feel very tactile so far, also I'm a Max Payne fanboy so the bullet time easily hit my soft spot
