    Outriders is an alien among the looter genre. Feels abnormally kind and flexible towards the dedicated sector of the community, it’s deep and fun and challenging from beginning to end and a game that feels worth trying if you’re remotely interested in it. Keep in mind though, the story isn’t as engaging as it seems: this is a game for people willing to upgrade their characters, as everything around that aspect feels like pure seasoning.

    That’s the note Outriders goes out on. You do those expeditions to slowly get humanity back on track until you get tired of all the loot. It’s anticlimactic, sure, but it gets its lesson across: We don’t get a clean slate, and leaving Earth wouldn’t give us one. At some point, we’re going to have to get to work fixing the problems in front of us instead of forgetting them. And if we can work up the muster to solve them, we might just get a cool gun out of it.

    Outriders is a wildly entertaining time, especially when you get glimpses of the sarcastically gory fun of Bulletstorm peeking through. But the loot mechanics aren’t bewitching enough, or its action varied enough, or levels surprising enough, to sustain the momentum needed to send me back out in search of better space-trousers, no matter how legendary they may be.

    I thought Cyberpunk and Anthem were bad but this one is not better. Worst game ever...

Even for single player experience, you need to be connected online to Outriders servers. And as of today, servers are not handling well. Constant disconnects and several hours long outages prevent you from playing the game AT ALL.

    EDITED REVIEW: After the recent developer new, I have decided to change the review, as negligance of developers was revealed. First of all, they are absolutely ignoring the worst issues like wipe of directory content, forcing players with lost gear to wait for weeks before they get some of it back. Also, instead of buffing other classes and mods to make other builds more viable, they have actually chosen nerf approach. They did not fix a single crash in 9 days.

    Second major issue is cross-play, which was promised, but is not functional since launch, so if you planned to have Easter coop Outriders session with your friends on different platforms, not happening.

    I would suggest to check the game some time later to avoid the frustration and save some time.    … Full Review »
