Hey Patrons!

We don't always post links to Noclip Crew videos but I know a lot of you are fans of Weird West and asked for this documentary so I thought it best to give you a heads up. In it I talk to Raphaël Colantonio about the design of Weird West, the challenge of creating immersive sims, the reception to the game and how they've patched it post-launch.

Jesse did an awesome job on the edit here, especially given some technical issues we had with the recording.

And if you want to check out the uncut version that is currently available for $10 patrons along with all the others from this series: https://www.patreon.com/posts/weird-west-uncut-70882870

Thanks so much, we hope you like it!
