About the game
Brigand: Oaxaca is a highly difficult post-apocalyptic RPG/FPS set in Mexico. Emphasis is on challenge, a branching story with multiple endings, and total freedom of action (kill friendly characters, rob stores, jump across roofs, etc.).
Minimum specs
Minimum on the Steam store: 2 GB of memory, NVIDIA GeForce 8000 or ATI Radeon HD 2000 (or better), 2 GB of storage. Windows only.
The value story
90 discounts in the 9 years on record, a median of 33 percent off across all of them, roughly 5 weeks apart. Today it is at full price, and its last discount ended 11 days ago.
On value it sits in the top 3 percent of its genre. It is better reviewed than 90 percent of its genre. Among the games closest to it, Amnesia: The Bunker ($24.99, scores 58) and 7 Days to Die ($44.99, scores 70) both come in lower.
$14.37 is where it would stop being a BANGER.

What players say
it doesn't want to run in windowed, runs like absolute garbage despite looking how it does, and has movement so bad that it makes me wonder if my keyboard is even plugged in

There's a surprisingly solid and deep RPG buried in here, if you can get over the game running, looking, and playing like riding a bike with square tires.
Close enough. Welcome back, Fallout 2 first-person 3D remake. a solo developer delivering something a massive multi billion triple A studio cant do properly without making it incredibly boring, creatively bankrupt and with a bloated slow unoptimized engine that has to rely on blurry upscaling just to maintain a stable 60fps on a high end PC chad indie developer creates superior product using a game engine that came...
