    Gameplay is fast and entertaining. I liked a lot the main story but sometimes I felt lost with so many things to read.

    The best RPG I've played for the last years.
    Technically developers have done everything smoothly and definitely not indifferently (as the majority of modern games, especially RPGs), I may even say that the game is unique-looking. The script is not an unforgettable masterpiece, though it's quite intriguing.

    But the main reason for the highest mark is the real presence of the gamer's choice, there is no fraction and nobody you are obliged to deal with. You may do everything absolutely your way, I guess this is second game I've played with such an ability, after Fallout NV.
    Reputation, companions, personal characteristics development, and other RPG features are working perfectly in this game.
    This game is a real RPG thrill, and it doesn't have any other competitors in this genre nowadays.
    Thus, certainly 10/10.

You can tell when you play it. If you like those types of games you will love this. I feel like I only saw maybe half of what the game has to offer and its still one of the best I've ever played. I played it as a libertarian freedom fighter who resented the tyrannical status quo and violently opposed any big government oppressors. I probably killed a lot of people I could have interacted with. There was an entire town in the beginning that I deemed to be communist so I killed their commie leader after stealing their power for hippie farmers. The whole town just hated me and I was kill on site for the rest of the game, but there was so much else to do I didn't care. Still made plenty of allies and had a funny and fun violent romp to be the freedom champion of future space. I hope the sequel gets more budget and enemy variety, those would be my only suggestions to add to this near perfect game Expand

The outer worlds looks fantastic, runs smooth as silk (on PS4 Pro) and is rich in detail, content, character development options, customisation and combat. It is everything you could possibly hope this genre of video game would be and a ton load more added in just as a bonus - out of the collective goodness of Obsidian's heart.

    This gem! From the creator of the fan favourite Fallout New Vegas, Obsidian is once again showing Bethesda how it's REALLY done - (to the point of dishing out a huge dose of abject humiliation in the process in this particular case)

    Compare The Outer Worlds to the broken mess that was and still is Fallout 76, with its over priced micro transactions and utterly disgraceful, borderline criminal (imo) Subscription "Service." Bethesda (probably being forced to by its owner Zenimax to do so) have turned their sheer greed and audacity up to 11 and have just gone straight for the "desperate cash grab" strategy aimed directly (and ruthlessly) at the few players that actually stuck with their half finished rubbish. That's what fan loyalty got them! Nice!

    Anyway, compare that dumpster fire atrocity of a game with this. Night and Day only begins to illustrate the point.

    That said, we do now have to anxiously wait to see if Take 2 interactive decides to introduce micro transactions into the outer worlds and break all of our hearts in doing so. Please T2I. Just Nooooo!

    TLTR:

    1 Good game by a good developer = buy 2 Bad game by a bad developer = leave to others to buy

    The Outer Worlds = 1. Fallout 76 = 2

Так вот играем мы за колониста, отправленного с Земли в числе прочих в поисках лучшей жизни на задворки Галактики в систему Альцион. Знакомимся мы с нашим персонажем, а заодно и формируем его образ, честно говоря не припомню, где я еще мог увидеть нашего героя кроме как в момент его сборки, категорически не припомню... Так что пока выступаете в роли Создателя запоминайте, ибо ни в немногочисленных катсценах, ни в самих диалогах нашего протагониста нам не увидеть, только руки, всё. И вот нас выводит из криосна спустя 70 лет бесцельного дрейфования в космосе безумный опальный ученый Финеас Вернон Уэллс. Оказывается что система Альцион уже давно колонизирована, но пребывает нынче в глубоком упадке в виду разгильдяйской и бесчеловечной политики крупнейших корпораций, которые как обычно высасывают ресурсы максимально задешево, пренебрегая при этом здоровьем и даже жизнями людей. Впрочем The Outer Worlds не пытается играть в агрессию, ее оружие это здоровая сатира, изобличающая корпорации и их ценности как они есть. Первая и главная задача нашего персонажа вывести из криосна оставшихся колонистов станции, для чего естественно нужно пройти непростой, но увлекательный путь, а дальше больше вариаций развития сюжета масса. Мы можем наладить жизнь колоний, дать звонкого пинка под зад зажравшимся буржуям, выбрать путь одинокого волка-беспредельщика, или вовсе продаться с потрохами корпорациям и прогнуться под них — решать только нам. В системе Альцион находится практически с десяток планет и прочих локаций, таких как космическая станция Первопроходец, Ретранслятор GB-23 и лаборатория Финеаса для детального их изучения. Каждая из планет и прочих точек интереса это небольшой, но сочный, пестрый, живой открытый мир, выглядит всё возможно слегка бюджетно, но мне лично понравилось, уютно как-то всё, по-домашнему. Понятное дело, что выпусти такое Obsidian, являясь уже частью Microsoft возникли бы конечно вопросы, но то еще был проект одиночного плавания. На каждой планете нам придется побывать как с основной миссией, так и найти себе дополнительные приключения на пятую точку, выискивая людей нуждающихся в помощи, а также постепенно пополняя собственную команду и, разруливая дополнительно еще и их проблемы. В общем, скучать не придется, у меня прохождение всех практически заданий в том числе дополнительных заняло примерно 16-20 часов. Expand

    Desde el inicio tienes la libertad de hacer lo que te de la gana, dependiendo de tu elección tendrás repercusiones negativas, positivas o random en la historia.
    Para ejemplificar las situaciones de este juego voy contarles una experiencia que la recuerdo con mucha gracia fue cuando me metí a una casa random y estaba una familia muy extraña, estaban haciendo la cena, o al menos yo pensaba eso, me recibieron como si nada y según me iban a invitar a comer, explore la casa, por si había algo que robarles, había un a puerta cerrada hasta arriba de la casa, como tenia altos los talentos de cerrajería logre entrar y mi sorpresa fue que había un cuerpo adentro, decidí largarme, sin embargo estaba cerrada la puerta, no podía irme, entonces en ese momento el, el padre me dijo "La cena ya esta lista, solo hace falta el platillo principal tu", me empezaron a atacar, entonces entendí, ellos eran caníbales.
    En fin es un juego altamente recomendado, la única razón por la que no le di 10 fue porque las texturas de los personajes son un poco falsas, y los planetas son muy escasos y algunos son extremadamente pequeños.

    Overall an enjoyable, fun game. I liked the outer space and scientific style. The story telling, voice acting and companions were good. The criticisms include inventory management, picking up so many weapons that they lose their charm and the well designed companions all being converted to ugly robot looking people in order to gain the armour stats.

    This game won't set the world on fire with its originality, but I have very much enjoyed playing it. It can get a bit repetitive, and it also can be quite dialogue-heavy (depending of course on which choices you make in the dialogue). Some don't like the humor in this game, but I liked it for all of its light sarcasm and slight cheesyness. All in all, very enjoyable.

    The Outer Worlds is almost the Fallout sequel I was expecting, but mixed with a bit of Borderlands and a bit more of Star Wars.
    And that alone is already amazing!
    I did not know what to expect from this game other than, well, an Obsidian RPG. The thing is, I didn't think I was going to enjoy it so much! All of your common Western RPG elements are here, done in the best way possible.

    I did not know what to expect from this game other than, well, an Obsidian RPG. The thing is, I didn't think I was going to enjoy it so much!
    All of your common Western RPG elements are here, done in the best way possible. It's a VERY familiar game, ESPECIALLY if you've played Fallout 3 or New Vegas.
    The graphics are cute, the performance is good (albeit a few hiccups), the quests are entertaining, the shooting mechanics works fine and the progression system functions like it should.
    But the thing that makes this conventional game shine among its peers is the writing!
    The story is great! It won't blow your mind, but it will convince you!
    I got invested in my character, in my crew, in the colony, the state of each world, each long and short quest, the role I played in the tale and in the witty dialogue. Just talking with people and deciding my lines got me super pumped because it's all so clever and very well done. The Outer Worlds has this magic that made me care for the things I said, did and its consequences. Few games like that made me feel this way, while still making me laugh.

    The game isn't roses all the way through, though.
    Despite its amazing storytelling, the ending is abrupt and anticlimatic. I liked what was written in the aftermath, but it was poorly handled.
    Some parts of the gameplay felt dated. For example, melee combat is suicidal and impractical. MANY items you pick are useless and VERY repetitive. After a while, looting becomes boring and unnecessary, especially once you get to higher levels or close to the endgame.
    And I get that the game is a FPS, but then... what's the use of creating and decorating your charachter?
    Also, **** Monarch! That place is dull as hell!

    I totally recommend this game, but I can see why people wouldn't think much of it. I loved it and I think you should try. That might scratch your Fallout itch for a while, at least...

    Very good game, compares very favorably to the Fallout series. I found the shooting to be more satisfying, and the environments more vibrant, and it had the same snarky sense of humor.

    I'd say an 8 is a fair rating as the story isn't particularly long, side missions have some interesting moments but not much, combat is reminiscent of Fallout, armor and weapons lack enough variety from what I was hoping for but the potential is obviously there.

    Hopefully this becomes an IP that Obsidian can run with and make into something fantastic, I'd love to see some story DLC or even sequels set in the same universe. Perhaps with romance options? Come on Obsidian you know you want to.

    With companions I'd say Parvati certainly takes the cake as the most memorable with Vicor Max coming in a close second.

    I'd say one of the strongest aspects of The Outer Worlds is the sheer replayability of it all, do you want to be a loyal corporatist of the Board? You can do that. A revolutionist fighting to help people receive their freedom and independence? 100% do-able. One of my most enjoyable playthroughs was as a bloodthirsty sociopath named Grog whom simply doomed the entire galaxy by murdering everyone he came across. The beauty is you can do all of these things, Obsidian went out of their way to design a game truly tailored to the choices of the player allowing them to tell their own story.

    Is the Outer Worlds perfect? Absolutely not, but the things it does right are so fundamentally brilliant that I can't wait to see what Obsidian has for us next now with the full backing of Microsoft behind them.

    The Outer Worlds offers players a fun and overall enjoyable RPG experience with thoroughly fleshed out lore, beautiful scenery, lack of bugs, strong voice acting, enjoyable combat, and believable dialogue options.

    The sheer beauty of the world around you is striking. These graphics are immaculate and it is clear the designers put immense effort into making the game near perfect visually. I never experienced any major bugs or crashes while playing. The game is incredibly polished, an obvious plus over the inevitable comparison to Bethesda (and even Bioware) games. In contrast to the rest of the videogame world, there are no microtransactions or pay-to-win content. The game you got on launch day is complete and ready for the consumer.

    The sheer number of options for resolving each quest line is commendable, as well as the ability to shape the world around you with the ability to attack or even kill nearly every NPC in the game (with consequences). The backstory for the world itself is unique and interesting, while the use of turn of the century visuals and terminology was a great nod to that era in US history. While the resolution to the game is not perfect, your decisions have real impact on the game's later quests as well as the variety of character/faction endings. In addition, the stakes of your storyline feel real and dire compared to the more personal main quests of Bethesda's Fallout games.

    The combat was very enjoyable. Compared to similar first and third person RPGs, the Outer Worlds combat felt less tacked on and more of an important aspect of the story.

    Weapons and armor level editing, modifying, and scrapping were also a strong positive. As well as the limiting of the amount of junk/interactable items compared to the Fallout series.

    While the side characters are not perfect or incredibly memorable, they all feel believable and were portrayed by solid voice actors. Your options to interact with them are diverse, but more impressive is their ability to interact with each other. No matter which two companions you bring with you, they will interact with the NPCs and one another in unique ways that add to the story and impact your experience.

    However, the game had some shortcomings. Primarily, the limited amount of content. This could be a plus to some who desire a more streamlined story. Personally, I felt the game lacked more meaningful side quests and begged for some additional storylines.

    The physical worlds of the Outer Worlds feel small and limited after only a few hours. Planets and regions needed more diverse fauna, enemies, buildings and NPCs to round out each region as having a unique experience. Several areas on the map were littered with fake doors of fake buildings that progressively made the worlds feel smaller and smaller.

    Skills did not feel significant other then for a few speech checks while special abilities/perks do not feel robust or very important. In addition, the Attributes, Skills, method of healing, use of consumables, weapon types, time slow down, humor and general spirit of the game all feels unoriginal and borrowed from the creators' previous experience in Fallout.

    The general story is a bit on the overly simplistic side, with the comically evil corporation seeming too forced. For narrative purposes I would have preferred a more realistic, pragmatic, profit-driven company and the alternative "good" faction to have a larger downside or more moral ambiguity.

    Generally, the Outer Worlds feels like a fun, far more polished and launch ready Fallout game (specifically New Vegas) with pieces of Mass Effect, the Firefly TV series and Bioshock for good measure. I enjoyed the hours I put into the game, but did not feel it innovates or takes many substantial risks.

    Unsurprisingly another unforgettable story by Obsidian. Meaningful choices and quests meant I felt invested in the world for longer than just the duration of the tasks. All my decisions made impacted and unlocked extra dialogue. Exploration also allowed for new cues to open up in conversation. The ending felt like it could have used a little more work. Felt rushed once I had completed all the companion and faction quests and once the big reveal of the Boards Plan came to fruition. I still managed a 40 hour play through so well worth the price of admission aswell as even better value on the game pass for xbox.
    Gameplay: 3/3
    There were a lot of different ways to tackle combat. I did like the intimidation system that cowered your opponents when you get stronger. Felt like the degree of difficulty in this game goes down once you reach level 15 or higher (I played on Hard difficulty, probably could have gone up a dial, however for a first play through I wasn't dissapointed) by then you have unlocked a lot of skillspoints and perks. Some of the perks seemed far too imbalanced and builds at time felt cookie cutter, however I was able to play how I wanted to as a pistol slinging hooligan. The party choices were fun too, as I found myself taking a new party to most missions and none of them seemed out of place or underpowered. Gun play felt nice, much better than Fallout. The modifications were also interesting and not boring when it came to gearing out your team. Sound: 1/2
    The general sound of guns were so-so. I felt some were far better than others. The machine guns and the shot guns sounded really meaty. The grenade launchers, sniper (long guns) and pistols felt like they could have been a bit better however the voice acting was fantastic. Parvati and Ellie were two of my favourites. General background sounds were good, but nothing special. The steampunk sounds used were quite good aswell.
    Art Design 1.5/2
    Bright colours, wasteland vibes and coorperate city feel in Byzantium were all nailed. It made me feel like I was in the "Outer Worlds" with such unique and vibrant settings that also made you feel like you were alone and empty. As you progressed on maps more opened up showing the progress you were making. The HUD was good, simple but effective however the Map system was a bit frustrating.

    I would highly recommend this game to anyone who wants a fallout fix without putting themselves through Fallout 76..

    Excellent game that is just the right length. The quests were fun and not grindy like most games. The postal service quest was particularly funny. It was nice that many of the quest choices overlapped and the devs actually made them work well together letting you play different styles.

    There weren't really a lot of different enemy types but since the areas weren't huge this was OK.
    Excellent game that is just the right length. The quests were fun and not grindy like most games. The postal service quest was particularly funny. It was nice that many of the quest choices overlapped and the devs actually made them work well together letting you play different styles.

    There weren't really a lot of different enemy types but since the areas weren't huge this was OK. Later in the game you were a god anyway even against bosses. But there isn't a lot of depth to the combat either. You either stealth kill someone, run past them or just start shooting at each other until somebody dies.

    The leveling system is OK and it is good that you max out close to the end of the game rather than the middle like other games. The flaws were an interesting concept but they weren't really worth the cost. The perks that are available are mostly useless so taking a flaw to get a perk point when you don't really need any perks is pointless. If the perks would have been useful then this could have been a great system.

    The NPC interactions were great and covered a lot of topics. Unfortunately the companions were pretty much set in stone and nothing you did would impact them or their quests beyond some conversations. But that is OK because it still worked.

    One of the biggest complaints I have against the game is the need to map out exactly what you need to do in order to unlock all the achievements. If you aren't careful you can end up having to play through multiple times because you missed some random option earlier in the game. Checklists for achievements is never a good thing.

    I'm also a little frustrated with the difficulty balancing. There is easy and hard and not much in between. Trying to play through supernova now and it is brutal. Forced survival aspects on top of enemies who (early on) kill with a couple of hits but take a massive amount of damage in return makes playing "any style" difficult. You basically either need to run past everything or become a tank. Since points are spread thin you can't do both. It would have been nice if there was some more balancing in the middle difficulty range and/or letting supernova have some options you could turn off. I personally hate survival mechanics so combining this with running everywhere is just not that fun.

    Overall you can clearly see Fallout in this game from the outfits being worn to the TTD. There aren't mutants and the world is overly colored but the scenes of destruction are still there. This is a really good game and I'm glad they are making some DLC. I just hope they increase the level cap or something so the DLC is worth more than just the story.

    The Outer Worlds is a breath of fresh air, considering most if not all of my life long favorite singleplayer RPGs have taken a back seat to more profitable online games. It's possible to spend countless hours completing side quests, exploring cities and environments, talking to NPC's, etc. This game is everything we wanted fallout 4 to be.

    This game’s story is pretty good, but I mainly rate this 9/10 because of the fact that this is a true successor to Fallout 3, a game that I love. It has the same charm and everything. The only reason it’s a 9 and not a 10 is because the gameplay is slightly wonky. However, it’s easy to become accustomed to it, and I fully recommend this game.

    The Outer Worlds is exactly what I was searching for in an action adventure game with bonafide RPG elements.

    The game goes for a retro-futurist aesthetic, akin to the BioShock games. Obsidian have done a fantastic job of creating truly unique, vibrant and beautiful worlds that feel both ethereal and hostile. Everything from the foliage, to the building facades, to the wild creatures that roam the land are all exceptionally designed. Although the maps are not nearly as large as other open-world sandbox games, The Outer Worlds counteracts this by creating an optimized and streamlined gameplay experience that removes tedious commuting; the worlds feel as large as the need to be as oppose to being larger for the sake of "openess'.

    The RPG elements are well done and a refreshing change from other games that, in practice, only have surface level RPG elements. Specing into different attributes and acquiring character upgrades are easy enough to understand but can have far reaching consequences during gameplay. It can be the difference between being able to talk yourself out of a difficult situation vs. dealing with a confrontation/combat with enemies.

    Your choices actually matter in The Outer Worlds as entire missions, quest lines and achievements can be locked off depending on the decisions you make in game. Choices can also affect your standing with certain factions and your status within those factions can also have gameplay altering affects, such as being willing to help you on missions or obtaining quest items more easily and efficiently.

    The game's combat works well enough. You get a variety of both ranged (handguns, light and heavy weapons) and melee weapons, as well as weapon effects and mods. You'll come across some bullet-spongy enemies that can be a pain in the ass to take down. The enemy variety is fairly sparse; you'll mostly be fighting marauders and wild creatures, of which there are a little over half a dozen types. The "Time Dilation" mechanic is one that I didn't get a whole lot of use out of and left me wanting more of what Fallout's "VATS" mechanic offered. Even after specing into it, I found the the meter drained far too quickly. I was basically able to get off maybe 2-3 shots, while standing still, before it drained completely. If you're moving an you engage the "Time Dilation" mechanic, good luck get more than one shot with a gun and any hit with a melee weapon.

    The NPC companion characterization is well-executed. You get a real sense of each companion's personality and what drives them on a daily basis. Some come across as more bubbly and optimistic, others come across as more determined and serious.

    The game runs smoothly, even on a vanilla Xbox One and I've encountered virtually no bugs.

    Overall, The Outer Worlds serves as welcomed and refreshing addition to the action RPG genre. I managed to log about 32 hours of gameplay out of it in one play through and found it thoroughly enjoyable. Full recommendation!

    The Outter Worlds: Lo que Fallout 76 debía ser.

    Obsidian no necesita presentación a este punto de la historia de los videojuegos, pues ya nos ha dado joyitas del gaming de rol como el aclamado Fallot: New vegas, el fabuloso Pillars Of Eternity, y su igualmente buena secuela, y por si no lo sabían también son los encargados detrás de South Park: la vara de la verdad; juego con el que un servidor se llevo una de las mejores experiencias y diversión en un RPG
    y aquí repetimos dosis, ya que el ultimo proyecto de este desarrollador tan apasionado por lo que hace no decepciona, ni de lejos.
    Empecemos dejando algo en claro, esta juego no tiene la mas mínima intención de inovar o traer cosas nuevas a la ecuación que hace un shooter RPG, sino mas bien hacer un doctorado en lo que estos chicos y chicas ya tienen dominado, y lo hacen de forma maravillosa

    Hablemos de construcción de personaje: Parte esencial de todo RPG (como de su contratarte en el papel) es la construcción de personaje que usaremos a lo largo de nuestra aventura, en este apartado Obsidian lo hace de forma excelsa y grata al darnos cuenta que no abandonan el sistema de puntos y progresión de habilidades que nos entregaron en su participación en Fallout, dándonos un abanico de opciones bastante amplio a escoger en cuanto a nuestro personaje, abanico que conforme van subiendo los niveles se abre mas y mas.

    Los ambientes que nos plantea el juego son lo suficientemente variados para mantenernos interesados en saber que hay un poquito mas aya, aunque esta vez optan por un mapa estelar dividido en zonas en lugar de un gran mapa unico, lo cual, pienso yo, no es ni bueno ni malo, solo diferente, ls gama de personajes es variada, pero con sus limitaciones, me sorprende que la tendencia actual de grupos sociales impregnara un juego de obsidian, siendo muy marcado en el hecho de que la gran mayoria de personajes femeninos son muy genéricos, siempre de pelo corto, de igual manera me choca un poquito el hecho de que el juego no tiene intenciones de desarollar ningún tipo de trama amorosa o de relación con ninguno de los acompañantes, pero se ta todo el tiempo de la colonia a desarrollar una relación entre una de las tripulantes y una ingeniera, me parece un poco incongruente por ese lado.

    Los acompañantes que podemos tener son de lo mas variopintos, dándonos a escoger a quien nos caiga mejor, con quien tengamos mejor sinergia, o que potencie alguna característica que necesitemos

    La historia es interesante, graciosa, picante y a veces hasta un poco sosa, mezcla en un rico licuado, comedia, aventura e intriga

    Algo a destacar es que desde el día 1 de su lanzamiento esta disponible en el servicio de MIcrosoft "Game pass" esto gracias a la reciente incorporación de Obsidian a la cartera de desarolladores de Microsoft Game Studios, esperemos que sigan subiendo el nivel con los presupuestos que maneja Microsoft y puedan entregarnos excelentes juegos con su nueva chapita de Microsoft Game Studios

    En conclusión: The Outter Worlds cumple bastante bien con una expectativa que teníamos ya de por si muy arriba, se doctoran en shooter RPG y nos deja con un gran sabor de boca después de invertirle mas de 35 horas de juego

    Looking forward to a hopefully more ambitious sequel!

    Buen juego y se hubiera llevado un 10 si hubiera tenido más contenido. Lo he terminado en difícil sin hacerme mucho problema. Le faltaron más tipos de enemigos y más localidades. Siento que el tiempo se me pasó muy rápido a pesar que le he metido 50 horas

    The game is extremely addictive as a fallout, I thought they could have had more innovation when making the game because it is practically the same as fallout, of course there are some innovations and that makes it unique

    It’s fantastic. The a real RPG and I’ve missed it so much in the last few Fallout games. Really, it hasn’t felt this good since Bioshock, Mass Effect 2/3 (yeah, I liked 3) and New Vegas and that makes sense.

    jogo sensacional, muito divertido e tem muito o que fazer nele, só não leva 10 porque tem esse sistema de dificuldade desnecessário.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Another Fallout type game in space, Im in for $60 im in. I love single player RPG's so i wasn't going to miss this one. I really enjoyed this game, some of the dialog and quest option spectrums were done even better than Bethesda. However they're were some things missing like mysterious quest givers that find you and initiate conversation while you are roaming around or quest givers hidden in a shack off the beaten path. i find complaining about a games length is a little silly because you are stating how much you like the game and how much you wanted to keep going but i would have appreciated getting to see the rest of the planets on the map you have been seeing throughout your playthrough thus judging your own length for the game. Loved it 9/10

    This game feels like a mix of Kotor2, Fallout New Vegas with a touch of Bioshock. It is a true call back to a era of video games long gone and it really feels good to be back. If you are a Fallout fan or a fan of any of Obsidians previous titles then this is for you.

    This game is also on XBOX GAME PASS so if you don't want to risk full price then they have you covered.

    The Outer Worlds is a well-written, novel, gorgeous roleplaying game, made for today using some of yesterday's best tricks. If you fall into the trap of using fast travel it can feel like ticking off to-do list items instead of adventuring. But if you force yourself to slow down and let the sharp dialogue, otherworldly vistas, and intriguing characters work their magic, it's one of the best roleplaying experiences of the last few years.

    It’s a familiar template that The Outer Worlds builds itself around, but the depth and wit within its universe invites you ever-deeper. There’s social commentary and late-stage capitalism gallows humour all over the place, but it’s the richness of its imagined future that really holds the attention. [Issue#184, p.84]

    As a recent addition to the Microsoft Game Studios family, Obsidian have put their best foot forward with The Outer Worlds. Solid gun play, an engaging story with great, likeable characters and a world that is fun to explore and interact with. Some missions let the side down a little and the game could be bigger but with so many nods to the great RPG predecessors and taking the best elements from them this is a great game to pick up.
