The Outer Worlds: Spacer's Choice Edition - Obsidian's first-person sci-fi RPG set in a corporate space colony

Age of Sail City of abandoned ships has the same shit, you rescue the hot spanish lady in long quest got married in church and as reward got fleeced every month and barred from visiting brothels.



Did not played long enough to get to the kids part through.

The fun thing is that for such a simple game, Harvest Moon is packed with reactivity that mimics the adult world. Suppose you marry a girl. If you ignore her and treat her like shit (I did this on purpose to see what happens) she will leave you and move back with her parents. You need to gain her trust again if you want her back, LOL. I tried to cheat on her, but that was explicitly forbidden by the game. Also, you can only give presents to young single women -- married or older women aren't allowed. LOL

Now compare this with Stardew Valley, the Harvest Moon clone that was hugely successful. You don't have a single church in a rural city, but you do have an altar for a pagan god, a gay couple, a beggar saying he is not fit for daily responsibilities, an environmental movement quest, astrology, and new age hippy bullshit. It reflects the decadence of morals in the most transparent and unpretentious way.

Here's an interview with Leonard, hope it hasn't already been posted, he talks about his background and past games, but also quite abit about TOW, I've been put off by the F3/F4 graphic design but now I'm almost tempted to try it out.

Why would lesbians be inspired by a chick who won't fuck girls?

Asexuals are typically considered part of the Q (queer) in 'LGBTQ', queer basically being a catch-all term for anyone who isn't heterosexual and/or cisgender.

Sounds like you played it quite extensively.

such an advanced language making sentences out of laughter, genius!

 

[aweigh]

this is driving me crazy, but I swear the soft piano melody that plays while you're walking around in Groundbreaker station sounds very similar to Laura's theme from TWIN PEAKS.

Western Indie devs are a progressive circlejerk where everyone knows everyone and they all fuck each other, too. You don't necessarily need to be part of the most degenerate shit but if you don't signal your progressiveness to your fellow devs I'd reckon you'd get excluded real fast and connections are important. The Holowka thing that happened a few months ago is one of the few times where the incestuous nature of the indie dev community bubbled to the surface.

You don't have a single church in a rural city

Maybe there's hope for the human race yet

TOW gets nominated by TGA as best game of the year, along with death stranding, control, smash brothers, RE2 remake and shadow die twice.

Also nominated for best narrative, best RPG.

Ashely Burch get nominated as best performance for playing Pravati.

The best RPG list is some next level bullshit, even more so than last year. Other than TOW and Disco, the rest are Monster Hunder world(last year TGA's best RPG)'s DLC, kingdom hearts 3 and FF14(an Online game). Last year it has 4 RPGs in the list while the only one that aren't win.

can someone give me the skimmy if this game is worth your trouble or not. i want to know if dumping 60 dollars on this is worth it

 

[MadMaxHellfire]

no.

 

[jebsmoker]

no.

don't hold it against me but i don't trust your critique for grimoire, but that's because i'm super patient when it comes to blobbers. although, a few other people i talk to said it's just far inferior compared to f:nv in terms of world-building and quest design so ehhhhhh

 

[fantadomat]

It is worth pirating only to bitch about it here


But no,it is not worth any money,just replay new vegas or ELEX. That is what i am doing now,it just made me itch for some good open world.

TOW is far inferior to F:NV, but that doesn't mean it's not worth playing. I'm having fun so far with TOW, though my biggest criticism for the game is that the more I play it... the more it just makes me miss F:NV.

Oh, also you can get TOW for $1 over at Microsoft's new Game Pass service for PC.

It's certainly not worth full price.

 

[jebsmoker]

maybe. i don't feel like fucking with the game pass service. i might buy TOW for like 15 dollars in a year or something because i'm hoping it'll have an expansion pack with far better quests
