Me and my friends have this genre of "weekend games" which are (usually linear) games that can be completed in about 5/10 hours or less on a casual playthrough. Call of Juarez Gunslinger, Metro 2033/Last light, Hyperlight drifter, inscryption, firewatch all are great games at less than the 10 hour mark for one playthrough. As much as I love my 40 hour+ RPGs, MMOs and open worlds with "unlimited replayability", sometimes a game doesn't need to overstay its welcome and just offer a fun experience.
@@Toastoffire100 You are welcome to, more people should know about them! keep up the great work, and hopefully soon a few videos will crack that 1 mil mark and put you on the map
I agree with you on this. It's a great game, very fun and in general straight-forward. You can come back months later to a game halfway through and still enjoy it effortlessly. It's short and to the point, doesn't pad with hours and hours of bullshit and errands, gives you what you want (a solid shooter) with some fun story telling. No more, no less. Is it the best game I played? Is it ground breaking? No. But it is what it is and doesn't try to be everything at once, does what it does very well. Appreciate this little gem as not a lot of games do this nowadays, most games aspire to be the next big hit that gets constant updates and grind and has to be played all the time.
Gunslinger's story has it's problems but my god I don't think I care enough about it's problems I love it too much. Juarez does what it does best, just being fun.
Great video. I loved this game when I played it - it's unapologetically fun and the way it frames itself as a tall tale 100% works in its favour. Plus it just oozes atmosphere.
Gunslinger is the 4th game of the saga although I'm not sure if it shares much with the previous entries, I remember playing the first and second ones as a kid and they weren't that over the top I think. Nice video, loved it !
Yeah I forgot to mention that it's a series. If I did mention it, I'd've just pointed out that nobody gives a shit about the other games, and the company makes zombie games now lol.
I bought this game because this review, wont lie, i play the whole thing in two days, and, i played with a big ass smile on my face, the story as goofy and exagerated as it was, was like watching an old west movie, and that was awesome. This game is just perfect for an evening that you just want to do something, just realy fun
I happen to finished it recently and I found your review pretty spot on. The duels felt a bit strange for a first playthrough and maybe that was the fact I was on pc. What made me comment though was the Rachet n Clank Gladiator OST at the end. Damn.. I use to play that game all the time a decade ago and had totally forgot it until now. My last braincells reacted to the song and after failing to shazam it just clicked...Im gonna try finding my PS2 now.
Just do what you can, dont burn yourself out, the videos are legit, hope the algorithm picks up on your channel, this is prime content and its wack that youtube works that way nowadays.. You could consider Odyssey maybe, ive yet to check that out but apparently its more creator friendly for now so maybe its worth trying to ride that wave. Thanks again for the quality time watching the videos you reposted here 🤞
I love your videos so much, they're so comfy!!! I just sit and play tetris with your videos on my second monitor You're like my new favorite youtuber and Thank you! For making me happy :D
Another great video! Like usual. Game seems really cool, especially since I've been playing Red Dead 2 recently, so I got that Western itch. Also I've been meaning to get Sekiro one day. Also pretty cool to hear Sam Riegel as Eisenhower.
迷えば敗れる… Sekiro isn't for everyone, but the ceiling of fun you can have is way higher than even Bloodborne. Yesterday I finally got to the point where I could kill the hardest boss, with all the optional difficulty modifiers, without taking damage.
5:50 I almost died at greywolfs voice, his scowl/frown is almost too cartoonish, he looks like agent 47 on roids, and then sounds like a 97 year old man I'm sure that's *blah blah blah WISDOM blah blah* but, yeah on point with that joke setup
I just found your channel and have been looking through your reviews of games I enjoyed as a background noise on my second monitor but a lot of opinions I have usually get pointed out by you, but I also have a few places where I disagree with your opinion and I believe if you keep up this high quality of content you might grow really fast. I really enjoy your videos and I'm glad I found your channel
Just stumbled onto this video of yours today. And yeah, thoroughly agree, and live by that same approach too. Something being of objective quality, and something I'd personally love are, more often the case, a separate fare. I laugh at your small point about DUSK because I'm pretty much on that same boat; I played the game and I do see, and I WILL NOT deny, it oozes passion, genius, craftsmanship. It's a great game, and rightfully considered the top dog in its genre, "boomer-shooters"...But I just can't vibe with it for some reason. Meanwhile, there's Prodeus. Overall visual design leans more to generic sci-fi and the whole game's feel and presentation is unoriginal. Despite running on the same engine Dusk does(unity), it's a bit more unoptimized. And their death/life system baffles me. But man, of all the games of that genre that came out, even I was surprised on how much it hooked me, becoming my most favorite in a great(quality-wise), long line of recently-released retro-shooters.
You pirated this game? Guess who just contacted your ISP provider, your computer manufacturer, your college, your phone provider, and your mother? Yup, it was me. Have fun in court buddy
Gotta love Ameri-COURT for screwing each other over and having more courts than braincells, greetings from the Netherlands, where people let each other be and have common sense
i first okayed call of juarez on PS2 the bound in blood one. It was the best imo, then years later i saw this one anc BIB on a steam sale and had to buy it. still pretty badass
For real though, an online friend has sent sent your video about cruelty squad, and after watching some more, I gotta say, I really like your style (and your voice) so I'm gonna stay here for a while, listen to some reviews and chill. Good content, man!
What gets me is that this game is in the same engine as Dead Island 1 & Riptide and Dying Light. And DL looks just a TEENSY TINY better than Gunslinger
Yeah I mean I like the last of us part two as much as the next guy but I can definitely see what you mean by clumsy there was a lot of shit going on in that game dude
It's undoubtedly great, it just... Never clicked for me? I think I'm cursed and unable to enjoy boomer shooters. Something about the level design always leaves me more bored than excited.
@@Toastoffire100 The best games for me in terms of level design is Prey and Deus Ex Mankind Divided , the levels are so complex that it's overwhelming and you'll end up missing a lot parts of the map .
I 100% agree lmao, those are my top 2 examples as well. DXMD never gets talked about because of how dumb the aug conflict is and the way it just ends halfway through, but yeah that level design is fuckin incredible.
@@Toastoffire100 I think it's tragic that because of its relatively poor performance we're unlikely to see another Prey game anytime soon. I love that game to death. The level design was fantastic. Wasn't terribly fond of the gun-play unfortunately. None of the weapons really felt like they had much punch besides the shotgun, and even that felt a little soft. That wasn't even close to enough to throw it off my top games list though.
The word I was looking for was probably "folklore", not "mythos", but whatever lol.
I've been singing this games praise ever since it released, it's such a hidden gem. You can really tell the devs wanted to make a good game

Never heard of this game before, But I'm sure as hell interested now after that video, great watch

"Great editing skills and review! I will definitely buy this game when it gets a discount."
When i played this game a few days ago, i couldn't believe these were the same developers from The Cartel
Grey Wolf over here sounding like a washed up Kermit
FUCK I CANT UNHEAR IT NOW
Jordan Peterson
@@DanieleCapellini Ok that's pretty good too lmao

Kansas still has plenty of cowboys, and loves the wild west
Yeah that was a bit of a silly ad-lib in retrospect. I think I was just laughing 'cause it's in the dead center of the country nowadays.
I love your videos so much, they're so comfy!!!
I just sit and play tetris with your videos on my second monitor
You're like my new favorite youtuber and
Thank you! For making me happy :D
Thank you :)
I really try to optimize for the second monitor experience, so it's great to see that paying off

@@Toastoffire100 Nice. What a pro gamer.
5:50
I almost died at greywolfs voice, his scowl/frown is almost too cartoonish, he looks like agent 47 on roids, and then sounds like a 97 year old man
I'm sure that's *blah blah blah WISDOM blah blah* but, yeah on point with that joke setup
Call of Juarez gunslinger is SO FUCKING GOOD and I hope more people play it
This game also added "drain my one eyed snake" to my dictionary which I use any chance I get
Im really glad i found this channel, you make really entertaining reviews and I'm definitely checking this out in the future >:)
Oh my god the harmonica when you die is definitly from "Once upon a time in the west"! Such a great detail!
my brainless shooter is definitly far cry 2, beat it multiple times and in the max difficulty too, so good
I love how in your videos, we, as your audience, are actually learning tidbits of history.
That's the goal with all my videos lol. I love veering waaay off track to weave analytical/educational stuff in with the gameplay stuff.
@@Toastoffire100 that is highly based
