So far 2 actually feels somewhat less like a Western than the first game. The first game had Jack:
His jeans and the tassels on his coat contributed like 40% of that game's Western vibes. Funnily enough, he doesn't even use guns despite his special skill being named Fast Draw
I feel like a ton of JRPGs have at least one town that looks like this
I feel like Ashley Winchester in WA2 has the same vibes? He's using a musket, wearing jeans and a Western style button up, etc
He just feels more like a young soldier type than a gunslinger or other strictly Western archetype to me
