For instance, in one level you make a mad dash through some mines before outrunning an explosion, jumping down a waterfall, gunning down ten men while you fall, then landing in the water only for a boulder to crash on top of Silas, killing him. There are an abundance of moments throughout the game where Silas will backtrack and change the layout of the level or replay events from a different perspective. In the case of GunslingerВ itвЂ™s actually used as a means of informing the gameplay and to tell an entertaining story. Most of the time itвЂ™s used in service of some kind of gigantic plot twist, like in Fight Club or Silent Hill 2.

The idea of an unreliable narrator is common in movies, games, TV shows, books, pretty much any storytelling medium you can think of.

Gunslinger lets you live out cowboy tall tale fantasies.

CALL OF JUAREZ GUNSLINGER CHARACTERS SERIES

Gunslinger brought the series back to the 1800s and puts players in the shoes of Silas Greaves, a fictional gunslinger telling his lifeвЂ™s story to a small group of people at a bar, regaling them with tales of his gunfights and brushes with famous outlaws like Billy the Kid and Jesse James. From what IвЂ™ve read of the latter, it seems to be a half-baked cooperative shooter with none of the storytelling chops of the first two games, and it basically killed the franchise, because when the scaled-back Gunslinger was released, it didnвЂ™t do well enough to warrant any more sequels.

In the interest of full disclosure, Gunslinger is the only game in the series that IвЂ™ve played, so I canвЂ™t speak too much to the franchiseвЂ™s overall quality, but a brief search of the internet will tell you that the series had two generally well received games set in the 1800s, the eponymous first installment and its sequel Bound in Blood, before developer Techland followed those up with a game set in the modern day subtitled The Cartel. I was reminded of all of this a while ago when I was playing through Call of Juarez: Gunslinger on Switch.ДЇor a brief history lesson, the Call of Juarez franchise popped up some time during the mid-to-late 2000s, and was billed as a first person shooting franchise set in the old west with a focus on storytelling. The smaller budget means itвЂ™s less of an investment from the publisher, which in turn means they wonвЂ™t be as controlling with the end product. But thereвЂ™s something to be said for times when a developer is given total creative control over the game theyвЂ™re creating, and often times, these games are slightly cheaper to make.

It makes sense for, say, Activision to try and have a new Call of Duty game ever year, and the sales numbers are tough to ignore. While the tech involved in such games is quite impressive, it can lead to times where it feels like developers are creatively stifled. WeвЂ™ve reached the point where games have little room for improvement from a visual standpoint thanks to huge leaps in rendering technology, and because of that, AAA games cost more than ever to develop. Game development has come a long way during the art formвЂ™s life span.
