This definitely a step up from the previous Call of Juarez in terms of gameplay Aka shooting which feels a little bit like COD and graphics. Also the prequel story is pretty interesting + the chemistry between the two brothers is actually good only downside is the janky 1 VS 1 Duels

Truly an underrated and underappreciated game, I agree with most people's opinions. For many players, this game was their childhood - and what a childhood that could have been. For me, this was the entrance into the world of Call of Juarez, and I really liked my experience with it. It is an old-fashioned, (mostly) linear Western-style FPS from what's called the "hero age". Or, if you like, Call of Duty: On the West. I've read many comments about how good the game story is, and I can't say I'd agree that this is one of the best, but most certainly a decent one. I enjoyed the brothers' personalities, the true adventure feeling, the atmospheric sceneries, and overall the whole game. There are no big revolutions or game mechanics that will be remembered for the end of time, but there is no need for that. Sometimes we just want to sit, relax and enjoy. And this one perfectly delivers it. I didn't play any multiplayer match, and I'm a tiny bit sad there are no Steam achievements for this game, however was happy for the foundable secrets. Definitely recommended and a must have if you appreciate the old gems.

Once again, really wish Steam offered a mediocre recommendation option. Short answer: If you really like fast-paced FPS's, get it on sale. If you're open to something new, give it a go. If you never played Call of Juarez 1, you'll probably like this one. But as a guy who like Call of Juarez? Honestly, not up to snuff with the first game for me. Call of Juarez had a slower, more adventurous feel to it. It was atmospheric, and lonely, and its environments felt so open, and the pace slow enough that you could actually act on the desire to explore that openness, that it felt more like a real open-world adventure minus the infamous failings of an open-world adventure. Call of Juarez 1 was meaningful, immersive, foreboding, and had a message, a meaning to tell, to walk away with after you beat the game and shut down your computer. Call of Juarez Bound in Blood is a hyperactive action game. It's not awful by any means; in fact, the action is successfully smooth and gives you plenty to work with. Singlehandedly that's why I switched the recommendation from "No" to "Yes" at about this paragraph. Targeting has unique touches to make it easier and more rewarding to find your mark, and special shooting moves - including one of my favorite things to do in Call of Juarez 1, the slow-mo two-shooter quickdraw as Ray - are back. Oh yeah, and yes: Ray McCall, not yet a Reverend, is here. So is his little brother who we learned about near the end of CoJ1. Big environments are here again, but everything else about the game's presentation makes it feel like you're not meant to just walk around and take it in like in Call of Juarez 1. In many levels, enemies just keep coming to the point that when you finally have a break, you just don't care about exploration anymore. For me, though, the biggest issue is that the despicable wife-beater of a "father", an off-screen character in Call of Juarez 1, is a playable character in this game, and you're stuck either playing as him or having him right there along for the ride. All the other things about this game- like the undeniably clever and memorable banter the brothers share as you fight, the intended plot and levels, the thoughts to have about the morals of what your character's doing- I can't focus on it knowing that this misogynistic abusive filth pile whose death was a relieving happening in Call of Juarez 1 is now someone we're supposed to feel empowered through or care about. It's distracting and ruins almost every big moment that Bound by Blood is supposed to deliver. Reverend Ray McCall was very flawed in the first game, but even he wasn't an abuser. He just stewed alone in his miserable life and took out his self-loathing by preaching fire and brimstone to the world around him. And credit where it's due: My guy, Ray McCall, is in this game, and seeing the prick he was to compare it to the prick he becomes is immensely insightful. The thing is him and his little brother are the *only* characters worth caring about; I'd have much preferred this game just be focused on him, or they could have had the common love interest in this plot (who's a likewise important offscreen character in 1) be the other gunslinger. Her, I'd actually like to feel powerful through and hear what she has to say with Ray. ___ Granted, much of this is my opinion and taste. Objectively, it's a smooth playing game and a pretty good step in for FPS fans proper who care more about action than about exploration, atmosphere, or plot. However, for those of us non-FPS-players who stepped outside of our comfort zone to try Call of Juarez 1 and *loved it*, I can't help but want to put these warnings up.
