    Gears of destiny done poorly with mechanics that work against each other. It’s on gamepass and that’s still not enough to keep you interested. It’s like the levels were designed by people who never played a cover shooter while the shooting mechanics were made by Gears 5 personnel with some weird power system that is just thrown in for stupidities sake.

    overhyped game. Typical looter shooter with mediocre Gameplay and a boring story.
    The graphics are last gen with framedrops.
    I uninstalled this garbage from my storage

    Very boring game, very repetitive gameplay which looks like this: conversation, teleport to a closed location, shooting from behind cover at a chord of opponents, teleporting for another conversation and so on. The plot is boring and chaotic. It's good that the game is available on Game Pass, otherwise, if I bought it, I would regret all the money spent on this game

    Its like a really cheap clone of Gears of War crossed over with a really cheap clone of destiny. It comes with faulty controls. Playing it on Your own is a pain, so it shouldnt be advertised as 1-3 players. After around 10 hours of play - lost potential, real shame....

    Game that seem to be made for old gen...
    Bad animation, gameplay, graphism.

    What a boring game. I expected more. It has some gears elements but it fails to deliver a great experience. The graphics, mechanics and level design are so outdated for a game that is released on 2021

    This game is 100% old gen: dated gameplay and graphics. We are far from a destiny 2 or a Gears 5 ... fortunately it is on the GP otherwise it would have had less

    Boring, clunky controls.
    really bad writing.
    interesting world and mechanics, but it just isn't fun to play.
    Overall gameplay strategy that is required by the looting system - put the game on hardest available setting and throw your head repeatedly against a wall until you successfully kill the board. If you fail, no worries, you are getting XP to level up.

    One of the worst games I've ever played. Would call it mediocre at best even without server crashes so constant completing a single mission isn't likely.

Would call it mediocre at best even without server crashes so constant completing a single mission isn't likely. Not to mention consistent bugs that wipe all the loot you've managed to get despite low legendary drop rates and an extremely boring legendary farming mechanic. Add in a non-functional in game map, bugged quest directions that often do nothing or lead you to the wrong areas, and the slowest menu scroll you've ever seen, and you've got a recipe for the single most frustrating game I've ever played.
    Here is a review ignoring all of the above: The story is bland, character development is nonexistent, and the plot is driven by nonsensical decisions of the main character and NPCs alike. You have no autonomy over how the game progresses, and side quests don't add much flavor. The skills and classes are decent and interesting to implement, and the world tier system is decent. The endgame is supposedly fun, but good luck getting there through the issues above.    … Expand

    There isn't a glimpse of hope for this game. I actually came from my pc to experience this on my XSX. And i was surprised to know that the boring atmosphere just stays there. While it being playable, doesn't mean it must be played

    game is average - ok'ish, and when it runs it is really fun.. but I'm so sick of server disconnects (also in singleplayer ? why ?) and random crashes.

    I have some problems with Outriders on Stadia:
    The matchmaking time is too long and when I start a mission, the game crashes (crossplay is set off). When I activate the game, the first loading screen (the access) runs slowly and it often crashes. When I finally manage to play, the game stutters and freezes. To sum it up: I can’t play!!

    Un jeu qui n'a rien de next gen, un gameplay dépassé, un visuel bien plus moche que les jeux de la gen précédente, ennuyeux a souhait ... Je comprends mieux pourquoi c'est offer day one sur le gamepass.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Game is fun but the gun play is clunky at best. I'd give the game a better score if the loot was better and the servers weren't the worst I've seen in recent memory

    Loot is much improved at level 9 world tier and above.

    Servers are better but still lag when playing with others.

    Ce jeux a mes yeux ne mérite pas plus de 3 , car il est trop loin de ce qu'il ce fait en matière de graphisme ( énorme retard ) de gameplay , de narration etc. de nos jours . Quand tu passes apres les grosses licenses actuelles tu te dis que le cross gen parfois n'a pas que du bon ....
    1pt de moins que sur playstation car il y a qql lacunes mineurs

    Visually the game looks good. We have not gotten a lot of titles to showcase these new consoles and Outriders does a good job with a rock-solid 60fps on Series X. The worlds are diverse, and the giant monsters are a sight to behold. The voice acting is atrocious and the story forgettable, but the actual world and shooting are simply outstanding. Outriders is a perfect storm. A shiny new game to show off these new consoles. The fact that it launched day and date onto Game Pass has definitely helped with its success, as has the fact that gamers are hungry for new experiences. I will likely be playing a bunch of Outriders in 2021, and that speaks volumes to its longevity. I hope the team continues to expand on the title as we move through the year, as I look forward to coming back to it for quite some time.

    All in all, Outriders falls short of Anthem in the launch-period stability stakes. Having to combat the game to be able to combat enemies and then combat the game to be able to combat enemies and then combat the… well, it’s just not worth it.

    It is a game that is interested in one thing and one thing only: turning enemies into bloody smears and hopefully finding some new shoes. And, thankfully, it is very good at it. If you are one of those people-who-like-this-kind-of thing, of course.
