    Este RPG espacial, conocido por ser el "sucesor espiritual de Fallout New Vegas" y es ciertísimo, Obsidian nos regala un juego de alrededor de 14 horas jugándolo normal.

    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.    … Expand

    Muito divertido! Não tenho do que reclamar, é um Fallout com uma dose de zoação.

    A soild 7/10.

    A flawed but competent action RPG.

    Pros: art style, writing, music, vicar max.
    Cons: woke narrative, features not working, excessive loading, linear and boring characters.

    That's the funniest game, I've ever played. Dialovues is just something else. Amazing job. Waiting for more game from Obsidian. These guys know, how to write dialogues... :D

    The outer worlds is a pretty good game and a game of the year contender. The story and gameplay is pretty good. It's worth getting.

    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.    … Expand

    So happy it was on gamepass or I might not have tried it. I didnt know these guys also made New Vegas. 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 andSo happy it was on gamepass or I might not have tried it. I didnt know these guys also made New Vegas. 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

    If you are a fan of Sci Fi RPGs, definitely give this one a go just for the awesome world and atmosphere it has.

    -Story- Good, but not the most memorable
    -Gameplay- Decent, not broken, but simple, boring and outdated)
    -Visual- This is the game's strong suit. It looks amazing and it feels otherworldly
    -Audio- Sound is pretty good and the music, in it's minimalist style, also feels good.

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

    Answer: 75 characters is between 10 words and 19 words with spaces included in the character count. If spaces are not included in the character count, then 75 characters is between 12 words and 25 words.

    Generally a good RPG. The choices you made did feel mostly impactful and the gameplay was good but not great. There was not a large variety of enemies as although there were lots of factions, there really was not much separating them gameplay wise.

The choices you made did feel mostly impactful and the gameplay was good but not great. There was not a large variety of enemies as although there were lots of factions, there really was not much separating them gameplay wise. Some aspects of the game were quite annoying as you were expected to have a certain amount of items so you can unlock an important door but that means you have to spend to grinding for those items. The open worlds were quite exciting in the game but it would have been better if all of them were fully developed as some where quite small. The best world was the dangerous dinosaur world as it has a lot of stuff to do in it. The fortress at the end is fun to takeover but further highlights how a lot of the enemies feel the same. The loot system was alright in terms of weapons but annoying in terms of collecting items and equipment. The levelling up system was done well.… Expand

    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.
