612 Games very much is trying to recreate the classic Western movie feel that you might find from the middle of the last century. Players will explore the vast heartland of the US while, making a name for themselves or staking a claim. In Wild West Online puts players into an online open-world in a Western setting circa the 1800s.
Their actions, interactions, and consequential results will outline the personal plot for themselves to witness, or for other players to join in. Instead Wild West Online encourages players to craft their own story as many “sandbox” open world games do these days.
An over-bearing narrative is apparently non-existent.
