One of the worst bugs I have encountered is double clicking bandages in your inventory will make them disappear D: Awesome video Kirk! I was like you when it comes to the demo back then - I even took it off my wishlist then but now it's way different for the better for sure.
The moment people started describing this as single player Hunt: Showdown I was in. Not the mention that these devs made ELDERBORN, which is an absolute banger. As always, very informative, quality video. Are you playing Dying Light 2 Kirk? I can't stop playing it XD
Im a huge fan of Hunt Showdown and the whole wild west cursed horror theme, so this is looking like candy to me. Lets just hope the final release is polished to perfection so we can have an awesome experience.
@@KIRKCOLLECTS didn't think so but thanks for the response. I'm just not good with movement in game on a keyboard. My left hand is real uncoordinated and grew up on consoles so I really only play strategy and RPG games on PC becuae you mostly only use the mouse
My only nitpicky criticism is the ragdolls. Just not a fan of retro looking games with modern ragdoll effects. However retro style graphics in a wild west theme? Sign me up!!
People need to stop comparing everything to dark souls. As if everyone is a fan of the series. It's just a random game, why not compare everything to tetris
@@KIRKCOLLECTS It's just strange because those game mechanics existed before dark souls. Much more excited for this after watching your video though. Also excited for Kingdom of the Dead
I'm wondering why these games always use a 2D/3D-Engine instead of for example the old Unreal- or Thief-Engine? Does this mean so much more work for the developers? I believe these Oldschool-Shooters would benefit from the usage of such an engine.
@@bubrub5564 The dark engine is available to the public, source code and everything. There is a active fan mission making community. It's just not possible to legally sell anything made with the dark engine.
It's a pain in the ass. See: WRATH It's a lovely game so far but choosing to use the Quake engine seems to have caused far more work than any other modern engine would have.
bruh can they please choose a new name, anything but "west" cause of so many other games using the same combo in their own titles. It's gonna be a hella forgetful to viewers to keep track at this rate
Wow... seems like this game accomplishes something pretty rare these days: it allows for different builds, you either play it like Doom (straight out shooter) or like Deus Ex (stealth) or BOTH play styles alternating between them. Message to the devs: DO NOT RUIN YOUR GAME on updates!! "Balancing" is boring, "balancing" breaks games, it happened countless times by now with all sorts of games. Allow for BROKEN builds, unbalanced builds, that's the appeal of games like these, the versatility of them and replay value with different builds. Stick with your original VISION, the peasants giving feedback don't know what they're talking about, often these people that complain and give feedback don't come back to actually PURCHASE your game, they are not your core audience of customers.
First person games with focus on the environment. The name is stupid, "Free-Action" is a better name and I want people to normalise it over "Immersive Sim".
@@NebLleb I agree that Immersive Sim is a bad name, but I'm not sure I really like Free Action either. Can we just call them a First Person RPG? That's essentially what they are...
Thanks for keeping me current on retro shooters Kirk, I love your channel man!
You’re welcome Hugh! Thanks for watching!
I'm so happy that it doesn't suck (yet). The setting is criminally underrepresented in the media, and it's one of my all-time favorites.
Honestly, one of the best gaming channels on RUclips and one of my favourite channels! Keep up the great work mate 👍🏻

Man I was surprised by this title :) I had no idea what it was, but I don't regret buying it for a second! A true hidden gem ^_^
Thank you for bringing this to my attention, looks like I got a new game to buy. Great review as well!
YES. KIRK UPLOADS, DAY IS GOOD!

Looks great!
3:25 - Ah yeah, that's the stuff
Definitely gonna try this
it's like a Blood Prequel
Dope video... subscribed
Much appreciated!
had this game on my wishlist from last steam next fest, boy oh boy this is great, and steam next fest is starting on 21st of feb woooohoooo
Almost a year later, still in early access.

Can this run on AMD Ryzen 7 5700U Vega 8 Graphics ?
They still not release the new map
And I thought the references to Blood in Dusk were really obvious. This is practically just a Blood fan game with Hunt: Showdown gameplay.
Does it have controller support? I know its in EA but thought maybe does
Sadly I don’t think it does.

Have you played Powerslave Exhumed?
I have, hoping to have something for it soon 🙂
@@KIRKCOLLECTS I sure have something for you right here dood

I suck at this game but it’s fun lol
Main character sounds like Caleb.
Oh yeah big Caleb vibes coming from him.
Caleb
hells yeah from the get go for me 😂😂 all about that old west shi, bein survival horror is just a cherry on top 😂
Biggest issue with this game half the time head shots don't seem to register

I'm totally with you man, but honestly it was the easiest way to describe the system.

You can't just use the dark engine to make and sell a game.
You can't just use any engine. Unreal engine requires that you pay royalties, and the Dark Engine isn't open to the public.

Uu
This is literally Hunt Showdown. Even the same tags

What is an emeeersivee sim? You kids need to put names to things that alrwady had a name. Help me understand. Thank you
I think its an fps where you can interact with the environment

Just about the worst FOV I've seen in a game in a very long time....
