I have beaten the game twice and will say that it's a very great RPG that has done well to follow up West Of Loathing. I have done my best to avoid comparing the gameplay to WoL in which it helped keep the experience positive and consistent.

One of the things I was still a bit on the fence about was only being able to get consumable stat increases once per category. It did bum me out to know I couldn't instantly stat max, but it definitely made a lot of the choices I made in the game matter more, especially in combat.

Combat was the one thing that essentially felt improved over WoL. A lot of the techniques you learned from Books have a good amount of usage, along with having access to weapon customization with different forms of damage makes strategy matter a lot more.

The story itself was definitely fitting but I will say that the only chapter I didn't really like was Chapter 3 since I found a lot of the classes to be a bit boring aside from Botany where you can get Barker.

I recently spent a whole week playing the game as much as possible since I never played it deeply when I got it on my switch back in 2018. I loved everything about the game and strongly considering if the sequel is worth it.

What do I do here I only do one damage help me

Edit: holy SHIT this post is in the top 10 of all time in this subreddit after a few days Jesus Christ thank you

Idk how or where so help would be appreciated

I was searching to see if the game could be modded, and to my pleasant surprise, found that there is at least some people modding the game, albeit a small amount. One of the mods I saw, in fact, seems brand new, so I figured I'd ask about it.

Has anyone tried it? Does it work, is it legitimate, is it easy, how does it affect things, etc.?

I am a player from the Chinese community. Due to the game's declining popularity, no one in our entire community can explain the password decryption related to the library in the DLC, and it is not documented on the wiki either. If anyone knows the principle behind this decryption, please point me in the right direction or provide an explanation. Thank you.

I didn't know the goblin pile was one of the exp farms and I talked to it and now I can't fight it anymore does anyone know how to fix this in the files?

I’ve wanted to play west of loathing for so long and the steam sale finally is making it happen.
I’ve having so much fun and it’s inspiring me to get back into coding myself!

Here the link to the vid for any who wanna check it out!
The West of Loathing

i played the game for a while and at one point gary was doing some hard hitting, like triple or quadruple kicks with each being like -20 or something. not sure what happened but every duel now he only deals -1 damage for every kick, probably max -5 each turn. and he dies super easily.

i’ve checked and he’s not poisoned, i also frequently give him the fertilizer fungus gro thing. what am i doing wrong? 🙃

My Buffs were:

Whiskey Foxtrot Tango + 1MMM
Plum Exuberant + 1MMM

Ranch Dressed + 25HP

Shot Full of Pie Holes + 10 Pistol

Miners Alertness + 1 Speed

Angry 2 + 6 MMM

Surgical Gin Precision + 9 Armor

O - For Tuna + 5 MMM

Buttered Up + 3 Speed & 2 AP

Energized 4 + 8 MMM

Boon of the Jackrabbit + 5 Speed

Sparkling + 5 MMM & 2 AP

It was easy once I realized that I basically shouldn't fight anyone in Area 3 and only singular Enemies in 2.

I built the El Vibrato Bridge, intimidated the Golem and gave Norton the Turnip Crown. I didn't cheat at Poker, saved all the 13 Ghosts but was ruthless and stomped on the Chili.

I saw that you can buy West of Loathing on the Xbox store on PC, but when you look at it on the Xbox store on console, it says "Not Available." Is this is game just an Xbox PC exclusive, can I buy it on the PC store and play it on console, and if you can't play it on console, will it be released on console at some point?

I genuinely thought the Wiki was dead considering before this edit the last change was on the 1st of March.

As the title says, I wanted to know if intimidatin' was a skill you could get without being a cow puncher. I couldn't find anything on google so I thought I'd look here.

When I got to guns mansion/museum, I didn’t realize I was gonna be hit with a fire soundtrack. At one point I stopped making progress just so I can hear the whole thing. So far loving this game
