    The masters of Western RPG dialogue options never miss. If you prefer quality story and character choices over gameplay, these developers are for you. And if you like this game, play their other masterpiece, Fallout New Vegas.

    It's fine for a FPSRPG. It's not New Vegas 2, it's a New Vegas Clone. Playing the game seems more like a bigger version of Bioshock. The game is pretty easy if you're an RPG expert, survival mode is probably a better challenge. And It gets better when you leave the first environment.

    Fallout New Vegas'ın uzaylısı. Obsidian'ın karakterin diyalog yeteneklerini de geliştirebildiğimiz rpg oyunlarını seviyorum. New Vegas'ta son boss'u konuşarak geçmiştim, bunda da aynı şeyi yaptım. Karizmatik ve bilim insanı karakterimle koloniyi kurtardım. Sanırım.

Karizmatik ve bilim insanı karakterimle koloniyi kurtardım. Sanırım.

    Oyunun New Vegas'a benzeyen çok yönü var. Bunlardan birisi de birlikler arasında istediğimizi destekleyebilmemiz, onlara karşı tavırlarımıza tepki olarak dost veya düşman olmaları. Ben karakterimin yetenekleri doğrultusunda barışçıl bir politika izledim ve her şeyi konuşarak çözmeye çalıştım. Büyük ölçüde başarılı da oldum.

    Oyunun yan görevleri ve ana görevleri bence gayet iyi. Hepsinde bir hikaye, alengirli işler, alt hedefler var. Çoğu zaman yan görevler ve ana görevler birbirleriyle paralel ilerliyor. Ayrıca her faction'ın kendi görevleri de var.

    Genelde olay örgüsü şu şekilde ilerliyor: Yeni bir gezegene gidiyorsunuz, çıkarları çatışan iki gurup oluyor, ikisinin de yan görevlerini yapabiliyorsunuz, o gezegendeki ana görevin sonunda iki guruptan birisini vahşice veya barışçıl yolla başa getiriyorsunuz. Kimi zaman da iki grubun işbirliği yapmasını sağlayabiliyorsunuz. Ama tüm bu süreçteki kararlarda iş tamamen sizde. Mesela bir grubun bir görevindeki fonksiyonel görevi yapmadığım için gruptaki ikinci adamı gurubun başına geçiremedim ve bu nedenle diğer gurupla işbirliği yaptırtamadım. Neden sonuç ilişkisi gayet iyi işliyor yani.

    Oyunda Mass Effect'teki gibi yoldaşlarınız var. Bunları savaşlarda verdiğiniz emirlerle etkili bir şekilde kullanabiliyorsunuz. Aynı şekilde bunların da kendi görevleri oluyor. Ama Mass Effect'teki gibi bağlılıkları falan değişmiyor. Yine bu görevler de güzeldi. Bir de bu yoldaşlar kendi karakterlerine uygun şekilde diğer görevlerde veya açık dünyada yorum yapabiliyorlar. Bazen onlara danışabiliyorsunuz. Mesela Parvati tam bir üzümlü kek.

    New Vegas'a benzeyen bir diğer şeyse combat'ın dandikliği. Üstelik bu 2019 oyunu, mazereti yok yani. Vuruş hissi kötü, düşman çeşitliliği çok az. Silah çeşitliliği epey fazla. Acayip ve ender bulunan bilim silahları var. Bir tanesi düşmanı küçültüyordu örneğin. Çok ilginçti.

    Grafikler çok eski görünüyor. Hiç 2019 oyunu gibi değil. DLC'ler ana oyunun seviyesinde değil ama fena da değiller.

    Neticede hikayesiyle, görevlerinin kalitesiyle, yarattığı dünyasıyla oynamaktan çok keyif aldığım bir oyun oldu. Fallout hasreti çekenler için birebir.    … Expand

    Amazing game, very entertaining. The possibilities are endless, I don't know how they have included so much content in the game with so much variation in dialogues and events. The cartooni graphics is kinda interesting as well and the world is very colorful which I really prefer to a grey world like fallout's. Totally worth spending time in it.

    I completely understand the low and average scores. I really do. I mean... this is a game that feels like ti was developed in a time capsule or something.

Yet I can't help but love it, because this is a game that's right up my alley.

    Fallout: New Vegas is probably my favourite RPG of all time. And Mass Effect is probably my favourite trilogy of all time. So a game that combines the two is something I'm going to like no matter what, and if you spice the whole thing with a bit of Firefly flavour? Man... I'm going to LOVE IT. And that's what this is, basically.

    So yeah, I get why some may have felt disapointed by it. Why maybe some people wanted something... I don't know, more modern, more flashy, deeper, more complex or whatever. I totally do. It's understandable. But I can't lie, man, I just liked this a lot.    … Expand

    Klimat zniszczonej korporacyjnymi łapami Arkadii przesiąka tą produkcję od deski do deski. Kontrast między biednymi robotnikami z Nadbrzeża a bogatymi elitami z Bizancjum, Wpisy w terminalach pokazujące w jak słabej sytuacji finansowej jest cała kolonia, czy świetnie napisane dialogi. To wszystko łączy się w naprawdę spójny i przede wszystkim interesujący i nietypowy świat przedstawiony. Ogólne nastroje panujące wśród ludzi przypominają te spotykane w falloucie, oczywiście z lekkim korporacyjnym twistem, to w połączeniu z retrofuturyzmem, daje naprawdę nietypową mieszankę.
    OPRAWA AUDIOWIZUALNA
    Sama gra nie posiada wybitnej grafiki, celuje w realizmy ale gry AAA odjeżdżają jej na kilka długości. Nie powiedziałbym że The Outer Worlds jest brzydkie, ponieważ całość jest bardzo spójna, idealnie komplementuje charakter odwiedzanych przez nas miejsc. Muzyka jest tutaj raczej tylko wypełniaczem, na świeżo po ograniu gry pamiętam jeden soundtrack, który budzi we mnie miłe wspomnienia, ale tylko dlatego że kojarzę go z grą, a nie dlatego, że sam w sobie jest jakiś ponadprzeciętny. Na uwagę zasługują hologramowe plakaty, neonowe reklamy występujące w świecie gry, lub te które możemy zaobserwować na ekranach ładowania. Są bardzo wiarygodne, prześmiewcze, satyryczne i posiadają retro vibe.
    FABUŁA
    Historia walki człowieka z olbrzymimi korporacjami, czy zdecydujemy walczyć z nimi, przyłączyć się do nich, czy tylko udawać, że jesteśmy po ich stronie, tylko po to, żeby na końcu wsadzić im nóż w plecy. Wszystko zależy od nas i podejmowanych przez nas decyzji. Grę można spokojnie przejść kilka razy, za każdym razem z innym skutkiem. Większość questów możemy wykonać na różne sposoby, w zależności od tego jakie umiejętności mam rozwinięte. Sama fabuła jest dość wciągająca, nie jest też zbyt oczywista, więc gracz oczekuje na to jak rozwinie się przygoda. Powoduje to czasami opuszczenie kilku pobocznych questów a niektóre z nich prezentują naprawdę przyzwoity poziom i poza wprowadzaniem nas w klimat czy nastroje społeczne w danym miejscu, często też dostarczają nam naprawdę ciekawą historię.
    MODEL STRZELANIA
    Jak na grę rpg model strzelania jest naprawdę przyzwoity, oczywiście większość dmg zależy od naszych statystyk, ale wprawny strzelec powinien nadrobić braki punkcików swoim skillem. Szczególnie przyjemne jest strzelanie w słabe punkty przeciwników, nakładające konkretne efekty.
    WSZYSTKIEGO ZA MAŁO
    Jak na razie wszystko brzmi bardzo dobrze, jednak The Outer Worlds ma jeden problem. Brakuje tutaj trochę kontentu. Misje są świetne, ale główny wątek jest wyjątkowo krótki. Podobnie jest z uzbrojeniem. Widząc wszystkie bronie na pierwszych lvlach nie możemy się doczekać żeby znaleźć broń idealnie pasującą do nas, tylko po to, żeby po 10 godzinach gry zorientować się, że większość typów broni już odkryliśmy. Tak samo jest też z przeciwnikami, którzy praktycznie wszędzie mają podobne modele, czasami tylko różniące się kolorem zbroi, mimo że często dane lokacje są od siebie oddalone o lata świetlne w grze.    … Expand

    I hate lukewarm uncreative unfunny story driven games. If the gameplay isn't saving the game for me, I won't play it. Outer worlds thankfully has an interesting universe. Capitalism in it's end state. I had to read every worker log I could fine, because the interactions between corporations and it's workers were so damn funny. Everything is over the top in an ironic fun way.

    The gameplay is okay, not what makes you love the game, but it's good enough to go on with the quests and story. The balancing is pretty bad. Playing on hard, I was a pure glass canon, which meant that up until the very last boss fight, I was killing everything within seconds. No real challenge. I never ran out of meds or ammunition. I was picking everything from the ground, didn't even have to steal stuff and still didn't need to buy ammunition or meds. That's why this game "only" get's a 9 instead of 10.    … Expand

    Игроку предоставляются ограниченные области на планетах, и ему предстоит открыть небольшую предысторию каждой на своем пути. Попутно решая трудности местного населения, куда без этого?
    Стартуя из анабиоза в мир вымирающей колонии в звездной системе Алкион игрок получит одновременно и масс эффект андромеда и светлячок с легким флером Фоллаута в космосе. По ощущениям, если бы мир Фоллаута и смог бы пережить последствия ядереной войны, то в космосе человечество выглядело бы именно так.
    Через всю игру проходит откровенный стеб над расчеловечиванием сотрудников корпорациями, дурацкие директивы начальства и прочая буффонада над потребительским отношением людей друг к другу.
    Можно сказать, что Outer worlds игра про то, как либертарианцы занялись колонизацией других миров и привычно рыночек порешал в руины все начинания. Вплоть до голода рядом с заводом, полным рыбы и космических кораблей, летающих с полным трюмами продовольствия.
    Геймплейно чисто прокаченный New Vegas с небольшим бардаком в инвентаре и замедлением времени прямиком из старины MAx Payne. Так что никаких откровений не ждите.. Тут стрельба намного слабее, чем у ФЛТ4, но живые диалоги, классные напарники и возможность летать на своем корабле дает гораздо больший простор для отыгрыша, чем в условной ста миллионов Андромеде. В целом тут все сделано лучше, чем в других РПГ шутерах с большим бюджетами! И слабый импакт от оружия и малая карта визуального урона тут вообще не мешает наслаждаться дорогой капитана Безнадежного, который подарил надежду Алкиону!
    Рад покупке Майкрософт Obsidian! Очень надеюсь они им мешать не будут, а дадут средств и другой движок, потому что смотреть на недогружающиеся текстуры в UE за эти годы устал смертельно, но оптимизация нормас.
    При gtx980 60фпс+ есть, что по нашим временам большой плюс.
    Покупайте без каких-либо сомнений, если хотите прогуляться по звездной системе с напарниками и почитать-послушать много историй, а часто еще и пострелять во все стороны в этом Диком Западе за много световых лет от Земли!

Please stop play video games and play a pen and paper rpg. Now for anyone still that believes that it is possible to create a decent rpg on pc. Then you don't really know what an rpg is, go and play baldur's gate and leave us alone.

    Now about Outer worlds.

    Leveling system.
    You do stuff you get xp. As long as you use your skills (lockpicking, persuading etc) you get xp to level up. After you level up you choose to what skills you want to allocate your xp points.
    Pretty simple stuff here. There are bonuses with one perk per 2 levels and 1 perk per flaw.
    You can accept a flaw if you want while you are playing the game.
    eg. you took fall damage too many times you can have the cripple flaw and get a bonus perk.

    This way you can sort of roleplay if this is your thing but personally I find funny to roleplay on a video game.

    Dialogues:
    The characters are colorful and full of charm in my opinion. Every character has something to say in their own perspective and give you a good look on what the world has become.
    Skill play small role here as you can unlock shortcuts and benefits through intimidation, persuasion, or lie.

    Gameplay:
    For me there are two parts in this game. You talk a lot and then you shoot a lot. The talking part is like a Bethesda game just a little more in depth. You can actually talk down to others and make your job harder or just not take a path the game is set to you. An example is that one of my companions asked me a favor and when we got there I didn't like the quest giver, I was negative to everything he said, in the end I shoot him on the head, killed his entire gang and left his base, simply because I hated him and I didn't want to do his dirty work for him.
    It doesn't change much, but there are some choices here and there.

    The shooting part is really well made us well. Depending on your skills there are different ways to fight, personally I didn't find it difficult, it was just fun. Your companions have different skills and there are synergies depending on which companion you choose to bring with you.

    Graphics:
    The graphics are fine, if you don't like them, then you are the reason that games nowdays are **** It's better to have mediocore graphics and good gameplay than AAAAAAAA+++ graphics and garbage gameplay.

    Bugs:
    I haven't had a single problem with the game.

    Level design:
    Really nice and compact, instead of having a huge empty map to explore and find nothing at all. Outer worlds has places for you to see in a nice small compact map, divided with building and planets.

    The bottom-line:

    The game is as good as it gets with the budget and time they had.

    Is it an rpg? Yes, if you think rpgs are levels and skills. No, if you have played a real pen and paper rpg.

    Does it worth the money? Definitely, if you like bethesda games (and you are not a crybaby who thinks it's better that anyone because you have played old schools rpgs) and have fun shooting stuff while having a some control on choices.

    What's that? you played the game and you didn't liked it? Such life, this is how things work in this world, not everything is for everyone.    … Expand

    Nine months later, I've given the game another chance, playing it through from beginning to end. It's more engaging and more satisfying than I had thought. I've come to appreciate that the story is modest in its scope and ambition, entirely self-contained (no sequel-bait here), and reasonably well crafted. I'm just not sure it will linger long in my memory.

    The game mechanics, visual style, and exploration potential of the game are serviceable.

    With this revision, I'm also changing my rating from 5/10 to 8/10. It's a good game, though I don't think it's a great one.

    Previous review:

    The best thing I can say about The Outer Worlds is that it is no less than a competently constructed RPG. The very worst I can say is that it is no more than a competently constructed RPG.

    It looks okay, all the various mechanics work as well as they need to, but it somehow fails to engage the imagination. Eight hours in, I'm having trouble finding the motivation to continue.

    There isn't one big reason for this, as far as I can tell, but a number of little things that are pushing me away, preventing any kind of immersion or emotional engagement:

    - the overall look of the game is flat and dull; it's not actually ugly, in that brownish-greenish New Vegas kind of way, just not very interesting;
    - related to this, the landscapes and buildings are small and spare, almost to the point of being simplistic; there's nothing here that calls me to explore, nothing to inspire wonder;
    - the style of the architecture, clothing, and technological devices is cute, but entirely derivative; it comes across as a strange mix of Bioshock Infinite and Firefly; the dining area on the Unreliable is a ringer for the dining area on Serenity, and - with all due respect to the voice-acting talents of Ashly Burch - the character of Parvati is essentially a discount Kaylee;
    - possibly major characters are introduced in off-hand and perfunctory ways, and we're given no reason to really care about them at all;
    - the story is a paint-by-the-numbers corporate-dystopia affair, even more broad and ham-handed in its satire than the Fallout franchise - or even the Borderlands franchise; again, there's little here that's novel or compelling or revelatory;
    - choices do seem to shape the story, but the writing is such that I never feel the weight of them, perhaps again because I'm given so little reason to care what happens to any of these people.

    To weigh in on the inescapable comparison, I found Fallout 4 to be in many ways less competent in its execution than The Outer Worlds, but far, far more engaging. I happily poured hundreds of hours into romping around the Commonwealth, bugs and wonky mechanics and all, but I'll have to grit my teeth to get through 30 hours in the Halcyon Colony.    … Expand

    Exploring is almost non existent, only one or two planet is big enough to explore, but there are not secrets or anything really interesting to see out of the normal questing areas.

    Campaign is good, Story goes very fast but is interesting enough, the characters are nice, but as everything goes so fast you really didn't know them to dept, maybe one or two of the companions. for most of NPC, you see them 1 or 2 times and that's it.

    I really like the looks of the game, there is a good variety of weapons looks, even if many play the same. Armors not so much, the major part are just recolors, so there are like 2 armor models, some clothes and that's it. That really doesn't matter at the end because the game is mostly FPP so you never see your character, only in equipment window (And if you're using a helmet, you will never see his/her face or hair for the rest of the game).

    As an RPG it lacks a lot, is too short, there's nothing to do outside of the main and some secondary quests (not much of them), replayability is very low, (maybe experience the two of the most different endings), and you will complete everything in 20-25 hours, including secondary quests and going unhurried.

    So, i'm giving the game the score as an FPS guided with some nice story, is enjoyable, and very fun to play (Love the humor).    … Expand

    Story: the story is somewhat basic and what you would expect ......at first there is a lot of choice and directions the story can go based on your choices ( like how a good rpg should) how you treat your crew , who you help , who you kill , who you negotiate with ect ect , now for me i saved halcyon with phineas welles , nyoka and felix died on me in the final boss fight but the rest of the crew survived. the game has a slide show ending detailing how all of your decisions turned out in the long run ( much like fallout nv) for an rpg with branching story trees is a good move. over all i think the story is well written and paced , bogged down by some cliches here and there and some predictable quests but makes up for them by being mostly self aware and not afraid to poke fun at it self
    Story: 8.7/10

    World building: honestly this is the best part of the game and this genre/style of game the world in the outer worlds is fantastic and mirrors our own so well. capitalism has run rampant in a place where starvation and feral wild life out to kill ya and then those who are so desperate they become raiders those who will kill you for a scrap of leather everything has a place in this world. you are a wild card and people treat you like one. you are just as much a part of this world as they are though but you aren't brain washed like the rest of the residents. every planet has its own ecosystem and human condition , terra 1 has frontier towns , a big city and secret labs , terra 2 is a lawless place and has very few people besides those who were abandoned there , or tartarus the prison planet , the world is so well thought out and everything down to what items are where seems to be thought of.
    World building: 10/10

    Graphics: this game looks pretty good , im much less impressed by its graphics than i am the rest of the game. the art direction is good but the tech doesn't really keep up with it. with on exception , The sky textures no skys look better than the outer worlds they are truly beautiful. animations are stiff and reused a lot witch bugged me a little as it lessens the variety of the game and makes it feel cheap. it is nevertheless a game with visual character , its look stands out thanks to its art direction of retro futurism meets modern day capitalism
    Graphics:7.5/10

    Gameplay: to play the game you will have to forgive it for a lot of clunk with everything else this game does right it is easy to forgive its bare bones copypasta combat. on supernova you need to use enough tactics to make it feel like a challenge but on easier difficulty it's a breeze to get through just point and click. the choices and dynamically changing story saves this game from being a bore all together. but its an obsidian RPG made in the same style as fallout and fallout is not known for its thrilling fps combat. is it better than new vegas , YES the studio has improved and that's all you really need to know any improvement should be praised . it just feels like the game gets in its own way sometimes
    Gameplay 6.8/10

    Sound design : big disappointment here the voice acting for the companions and main characters are find but the rest is just good Enough , again better than new vegas but not really up to the industry standard. gun sounds are good though especially the plasmas or lazer guns but i think the music was forgettable i don't know any of the individual tracks even now thinking about it except for the final rush , but i do know the music always fit the mood and that in video games is important enough
    Sound design:6/10

    8.7+10+7.5+6.8+6=39
    395= 7.8/10

    this game is very good for rpg players , for first person shooter players use to spectacle not so much , it is a welcome addition to my library of games. i enjoyed the game thoroughly even if i did forgive a lot of its flaws , flaws i think can be easily ironed out in the eventual sequel because it deserves one    … Expand

The story is alright it's not complex at all, but I can't say much about it since I'm only 10 hours in the game. The music is pretty bland nothing really memorable, but other than music the sound design is really good, and the voice acting is phenomenal so far. The characters are great I love almost all of the companions I've encountered so far. That about sums up my thoughts, great game if you love RPG's definitely play this, especially if you have the Xbox game pass.… Expand

    I thorougly enjoyed the game.
    There are some issues with side missions. You can't pick more than one, like in TES. And if you want to finish everything, you are forced to be frolicking around to many times to be enjoyable.
    I'm really hoping for sequel... Maybe it's not best choice, but it's spacer's choice.

    One of the Best Games of all time (in my opinion). No matter how much you don't like or don't like fallout or Destiny, I guarantee you will most likely like this game. The PVP is amazing, on normal mode It deferentially isn't the hardest as in my 20+ hours in the game I only redid a few levels or areas, no not the boss level at the end with the head of the board.

The storyline and dialogue is pretty good as it was made by the same people that made Fallout New Vegas. I like the aspect that you can use your skills as dialogue and that you can lie etc. To summarise the game, good fun game that's similar to Fallout 4 and Destiny 2 with great visuals and gives you an all-around fun time.… Expand

A lot of the armor and weapons are too repetitive, and it's almost as if the developers were too scared to take a chance, or maybe the development of the game was rushed. The only reason I'm giving this game an above average score is because if you are into story, this game definitely will give you one that will keep you at the edge of your seat.… Expand

While it's true that it's smaller than comparable Bethesda games (Fallout NV, or Skyrim, for example), every aspect of this game is, in my opinion, done better. Companion interactions, while smaller, are deeper and more meaningful. The story, while shorter, is more emotive. Every single thing you do has consequences, and those consequences don't feel like they're at the mercy of an unrealistic numerical system, like in many comparable games. The ending (no spoilers) reflects many, MANY choices you made during the game, and every single consequence makes sense. The advancement system is more pleasant to work with, while still being exciting. The gunplay is more fun. The weapon mods, while less extensive (remember: smaller game), are easier to understand, require no grinding/scavenging, and make the weapons not just more effective, but more fun to use. The NPCs are deep. Character customization is a lot of fun. The characters in the game don't all look like they have disfiguring birth defects (looking at you, Elder Scrolls). The dialogue is realistic. The graphics are astounding. (I repeatedly found myself just staring at stuff.) There are numerous hilarious "Easter eggs" that are fun when you find them, but are not required to enjoy the game. (Examples: there is one document where they mention "turoencabulator"--look that up on YouTube; there is another place where you can discuss the merits of a "suggestion box" with a quest giver, to hilarious effect.) The flaws system is fun, if somewhat hazardous.

    You really should buy this game or play it as part of a subscription service. Currently, XBox Game Pass (beta) lets you get this game and a gaggle of others for 3 months, for just $1...

    Of course, like any game, it isn't 100% perfect (just mostly so). You can seriously mess up your character if you take the wrong flaws. Don't take flaws that reduce your temperament, or you'll no longer be able to regenerate health without using items. Still, unlike with many comparable games, I didn't run into anything where I said to myself, "This is broken". I don't doubt that someone will be able to come up with things they don't like about this game, and that's OK; but I honestly can't find any noteworthy flaws with it.

    This game is a masterpiece. If you like the FPSRPG genre, you owe it to yourself to play it.    … Expand

    Its a really good call back to the good old days of Fallout. Even though this is an entirely new IP, it will remind you of the Masterpiece New Vegas. Plot, Characters and Story are done well, so is the gameplay, There is nothing quite exceptional or massive about it, but the game sure brings a smile to your face whenever you boot it up, give it a try :)

    Outer World is like fun mix betwen Mass effect done good and fallout done good
    -combat is rl simple and melee attacks are hard to connect
    -companions skills are okey, but only one for each character made open combat not so enjoyable -character models and npc ai dissapoint the most -female characters looks like trash all of them are so weird and just strange -every character have like    Outer World is like fun mix betwen Mass effect done good and fallout done good
    -combat is rl simple and melee attacks are hard to connect
    -companions skills are okey, but only one for each character made open combat not so enjoyable
    -character models and npc ai dissapoint the most
    -female characters looks like trash all of them are so weird and just strange
    -every character have like 1 body model with same height and build its just off
    -character creator is OKEY if you blink a little and ignore the fact that this is FPP game and you cant even seee your own face in dialogs with npcs :D
    -NPCes barely move, some of them are patroling few of them might even visit hause and sleep for a while or just stand there and wait
    -Dialogs are good, my character can alvays find fitting response for himself
    -Choices in quests are real, 1st map dont give you mush sense of complexity in player choices, but they gets better later and can completly change your experience
    -finaly NPCes are mortal
    -Defficulty is a joke, 1st 3 affect only how mush you wanna limit combat to use only most effective tactics/weapons (2x stunning companions and long range rifle)
    Supernova offer this hardcore mode features from new vegas, but its all in, you cant just select Enemy dmg/enemy HP/survival elements/mortal companions, take it or swallow "normal" where fun builds are useable
    -Grafix are outstanding, besides character models thats looks like sh*t, game areas are great
    they looks absolutly stunning, every planet looks diferently and have own theme
    -game is utilizing same enemies many times, i know we have it everywhere else, but fuk it i ll point that out everytime its happening as my sign of the protest
    -Combat is avoidable/optional you can avoid many conflicts with dialogs or just being sneaky
    it will cost you fair dose of experience, but PACIFISM is reward by itself
    -You can respec your character quite easily in case if you are struggling to find fitting build to your playstyle - thats ok
    -Flaws system is fine, during your adventures your character can gain negative traits that will create some sort of weakness in exchange for perk point, this is not fair deal for the most times, but it is a another choice to build unique character
    -Game lack some sort of crafting system or something to utilize most of the loot, items just jump into your inventory and i bet you dont even need to pick up anything just rush thru the game
    -Economy is quite solid in The Outer Worlds, selling your junk dosnt get you to the fortune like in most RPGes, but it can help to effort basic needs ammo/healing/drugs
    -Dead characters stays dead and every character you meet can be killed
    -Your companions and npces have few dialog options to dont say same things over and over
    -Character build affect dialogs a lot, sadly for the quests not rl, maybe to unlock most hidden options during specific story path
    -Character progression is good, you can feel like every level matters and push your limits, game encourage you to invest points mostly in out of combat skills if you wanna interact with the world, but aiming for combat skills is rewarding
    -Perk system for main character and companions sux, some perks looks mandatory for any run, but the rest are like whatever, for companions its kind of worse they gain too few perk points to specialize them in anything fun and never gets 2nd ability which makes them repeat same move to the rest of your adventures
    -solo play as lone wolf have pretty mush only downsides, game clearly says "strength in numbers"
    companions works in the dialogs, have interactions with random npces, works in combat and are invisible to enemies if they cant see you lone wolf perk cant overcome all perks and sh*ts companions adds to the table
    -Armor design is bad, all armours looks weird or okey for best and you cant change colors or customize them anyway, just throw bonus upgrades to weapons and armour and play
    >Unreal engine 4:
    --game is optimized rl well wasnt like that for launch exacly, but current state of the game is amazing and enjoyable, game works smothly and have a lot of charm, its easy to alt+tab or get screenshots/quicksaves/stream/anything
    -Being UE4 game made The Outer Worlds unmodable - no fun allowed
    you wanna have all characters remodeled? NOPE, no fanmade models, no fanmade DLCes
    >Being EGS exclusive
    -i cant blame Obsidian for taking this deal, taking off 20% of the costs and getting extra founds alvays helps, just 60$ for Epic game is not something for my stomach and i would strongly advise to think about buying it on epic twice
    I played it with Microsoft gamepass, for 1$ and as mush as i dont like such gamepass model, for pearls like Outer Worlds it was worth it, i ll totaly hunt in on Steam or GOG if it will be possible, preferably cheaper than EGS price

    A space RPG, without the elements which don't contribute to the story directly, like unnecessarily detailed crafting, homebuilding, excessively branched skill trees etc. I don't like to struggle with these stuff, so The Outer Worlds has been a purely story ridden adventure for me.

    Graphics, UI, level design, combat etc. all satisfied me well. Especially liked the art style of the game.

    The only not positive comment I can leave is the palpable weirdness in nearly every dialogue and personalities of characters. Whole character of Parvati, the somewhat-cringy allegedly-cool dialogues of Nyoka, the idea behind creating the personality of Vicar Max, the far from being original crazy professor Phineas, important faces of ALL factions, the cuteness in cute characters, the edginess in edgy characters. After seeing all these I feel like I kinda know what kind of people the developers behind these parts are. Feels like all the conversations in this game are written by a guy who learned the world and social interaction through movies, games and TV, internalized tolerance not by genuinly believing, but because it is the norm in this circle now. This feeling hit me nearly in every conversation in the game, and near the end, this started to bother me very much.

The story was reasonably interesting with a nice variety of NPCs to interact with. Voice-acting and art were of good quality.

    Occasionally the keyboard controls were non-obvious, so I had to get a cheat sheet from the web. The retro-themed furnishings and tech seemed out of place, given FTL drives. The launcher is not ready for prime time: on my WinX system with reasonably capable hardware, the launcher was unable to reliably update the cloud saves it insisted on. I wound up with some annoying delays while it tried and tried, and some very kludgy starts near the end. Playtime was relatively short for the price, though it depends on how thoroughly you explore and work the side-quests. Getting into my library at Epic was often impossible due to problems on the website.

    Most of this game's problems may be fixed as 2020 ripens, though it surprised me that they weren't already. It's entertaining but not best-in-show.    … Expand

Whilst the heavy focus on side quests and the companions can make the mid-game quite grindy - and one particular villain in the game turns out to be a McGuffin you never actually encounter - it was a worthwhile, graphically beautiful experience with good gun play (the guns feel and sound great).

    The problem with this isn't that it is a bad game (far from it), but the fact that it failed to reach its true potential… or maybe the expectations were simply too high, because there's nothing here that anyone can point to and say that it is terrible. Sadly, there's almost nothing that's great either, apart from the role-playing element and the quality of writing. The gunplay? Ok. The exploration? Decent. The plot? Fine. The dominant feeling here is of a game that is good enough so that you won't hate it, but also not as good for it to be the flawless classic that it could definitely be - but again, that's probably those darn high expectations speaking, because flaws or no flaws, The Outer Worlds shouldn't be missing from any RPG collection.

    Usually, a planet has just one or two settlements and a bit of wildlands to explore. But that’s for the best – instead of exploring miles of filler content, Outer Worlds keeps you moving from planet to planet, from one tense situation to another. [Issue#241, p.34]
