Completed #HardWest2 within 23h. What a ride and a worthy successor. Some interesting new game mechanics, awesome music and sound, plenty of splatter, pew pew and dead men walking - what's not to like ❤️

(Oh and on Linux PC, as usual)

Hard West was so good, they made a Hard West 2. Hard West II is *also* very good, so I expect that eventually there will be a Hard West II 2. It's the story of a posse of hardened desperados who rob the wrong train and end up on a quest to wrest their souls back from the devil. *A* devil, anyway. A tactical old west rpg with eldritch themes, it features a diverse cast of characters, each with unique abilities and motivations. Combat is standard shoot-and-cover tactics with some fun additions like ricochets and supernatural abilities. Additionally, there's the bravado mechanic: a character who defeats an enemy gets "bravado", and their action points for the turn get refilled. This almost feels like cheating, but it's *so* satisfying to tear through an entire enemy posse in a single, well-orchestrated turn. Hard West II is definitely more mature and polished than the original, but I feel like the first game pushed more thoroughly into weird territory. Despite the fact that the game autosaves at the beginning of each turn (🎉), it took me *forever* to finish it, just because I found that when I put it down in the middle of a battle, I would completely forget my strategy by the time I picked it up again and have to start over anyway. Hard West II is great! If you liked the original or enjoy tactical rpgs or weird west, give it a try!

#HardWest2 is a fast-paced turn based tactics game, focusing on utilizing the bravado, and luck system in battles, between which, you travel to cities, camps and inns to do your business, like robbing a bank, train, having shootouts, or fighting the devil.
I enjoyed the game, even when the RPG elements were sparse, and the story is just OK, needed better presentation, seriousness and drama. The battles were fun, the atmosphere of western with supernatural twist was right.
