    If you’re one of the many gamers who hasn’t played The Outer Worlds before, then now is the time. Given that I’ve scored the base game and its DLCs highly in the past, coupled with the gameplay improvements and a reasonable 60-dollar price point makes, this is the best way to experience all this game has to offer.

    Three-and-a-bit years on, The Outer Worlds still holds up as a fine example of RPG excellence, with choices that actually carry proper weight. On Xbox Series X|S, the Spacer’s Choice Edition looks great, although you can’t help but be left with a nagging feeling that it could be slightly more polished.

    The Outer Worlds: Spacer’s Choice Edition is a weird release. While Xbox owns the developer, Private Division still retains the distribution rights to the first game. Which means the normal free upgrade is not here. Instead we have the definitive version of a great game locked behind some weird monetary decisions. If you never played the original, this is by far the best package available. If you did and are looking to upgrade what is here is nice, but not worth another $60. If you own all the DLC this is a solid $10 upgrade. Still I wish it was more accessible or at least a save transfer existed. It taints an otherwise solid release.

    When it comes to playing The Outer Worlds, the Spacer's Choice Edition is not the best choice - the performance is quite frankly shocking.

    Beautiful setting, almost unlimited character building for any playstyle, the dialog in this game is superb and hilarious.

    Cette édition « Spacer’s Choice » est donc conçue pour les consoles actuelles (X|S et PS5) mais tourne comme une patate, comme une grosse merde de patate pourrie, quel que soit le mode graphique choisi… En mode qualité, ça ne tient même pas les 30 im/s réglementaires et en mode performances, ça ne tient pas non plus les 60 im/s, loin de là !

    Les améliorations graphiques sont minimes… mais surtout, les bugs sont de retour, malgré déjà un gros patch quelques jours après la sortie de cette édition catastrophique (vendue encore au prix fort de 60 boules pour un jeu de 2019 !), un patch de 44 Go qui n’a en fait… presque rien arrangé… ou si peu. Pire encore, le stick gauche de la manette se met à dériver, tout seul… encore un ‘nouveau’ bug !

    Et signalons que la mise-à-jour vers cette édition de la génération actuelle est facturée éhontément 10 euros, si vous possédez -déjà- le jeu original plus ses deux extensions, rien que ça ! Cette politique commerciale immonde émane directement de Private Division, une succursale de Take 2, qui possède encore les droits sur ‘The Outer Worlds » malgré le rachat d’Obsidian par Microsoft. Bref, évitez cette édition comme la peste !

Performance, grainy picture, aiming reticle disappearing, lag spikes, stuttering, and oh boy performance. Game has 2 modes. A 60fps and a 30fps. Both run horrible. On Xbox series X, it runs on average in 60fps mode 48-52. In 30fps mode 22-27. In my opinion this was a quick get it out game launch for money and who cares how it plays. Expand
