Evil West

What this game isn't:

• story-rich (boring)
• open-world (boring)
• riddled with pointless side quests (boring)
• driven by a serious narrative with complex characters in order to avoid what many game journalists call "ludonarrative dissonance" (boring)
• a walking simulator with a dark and eerie atmosphere, packed with cheap jumpscares and unnerving suspense that feels almost as if the devs were desperately trying to hide the fact you could probably beat it in two hours if the protagonist could run (boring)
• gameplay flow constantly interrupted by pointless looting, crafting, upgrading, following an NPC character for twenty minutes, dialogue that progresses the story, etc. (BORING, BORING, BORING, BORING, BORING)

What this game is:

• full of gore (fun)
• full of gunplay (fun)
• full of melee (fun)
• full of bloodthirsty savage beasts that pack a punch and want you dead (fun)
• with an over-the-top cheesy story about a badass cowboy that has to slaughter a ton of vampires and save humanity (fun)
• full of enemies, takedowns, action, boss fights, etc. (FUN, FUN, FUN, FUN)

Just play the game if you want to feel like it's 2010 again. When you were younger and eager to go home and play. When video games were short, but amazing. When you sat down for half an hour and 5 hours later you had no idea you were playing for so long. When games had gameplay, instead of microtransactions, trailing missions, "realism" and all that other trash they're stuffed with now...
