    Out There: Omega edition is an astounding textual and visual space adventure, and a good catch for every sci-fi fan.

    Although the gameplay itself may prove tiresome over long periods, the game’s story elements, sense of isolation, and soundtrack make Out There a more-than-worthwhile purchase.

    It shouldn‘t work, there‘s gaping holes in its structural integrity, it should have broken up in orbit. Yet somehow Out There remains intact, exerting a mysterious gravitational force that kept pulling me back.

    Just like in Sunless Sea, at some point, gameplay inevitably gets in the way of enjoying the story. As soon as you master all the elements, gadgets and upgrades, flying through space will become a nuisance.

    Pure RNG if you do not like may not be your thing. The option to bump into your earlier failed runs ships helps along a bit. Playing the gamePure RNG if you do not like may not be your thing. The option to bump into your earlier failed runs ships helps along a bit. Playing the game for a few hours is the best advice on how to understand the game. The runs can be quick due to not understanding priorities and the limitations of your ships.

    So bought it for half the price and was reading reviews of it being worse than ftl. Sure no combat to speak of but all other things and managing your cargo are important factors. Choosing the right options, getting better ships and finding technology sure make the game rely on luck. At least each play-through so far has been totally different. To make things interesting you can find old ships you have crashed as well.

    For the price the game seems to have a decent amount of re-playability and so far i understand only a small part of it so I enjoy it as much as FTL. Getting to the end was easier with FTL =)    … Expand

    It's very much a semi-text based/resource management RNG adventure with some great writing but unless you go in prepared for that you're likely to get annoyed with losing all your progress because RNG dictates that even though you're mining a star for hydrogen you will get a tiny amount thus ending your run. It's a star. They're literally made from hydrogen.

    Anyway, if you're prepared to lose and happy to enjoy the trip then it's a good game. Otherwise probably avoid.    … Expand
