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

[Valdetiosi]

Never found big urge to actually play this game seriously for what it was, I actually ended up doing just a character who kills everyone, and that worked out rather smoothly. I guess for me it was the level scaling weapons that did it for me, and the tedium of the plot.
The only regret was that I accidentally took Parviti as party member and after telling her to get lost I couldn't find her to beat her ass.

Yes, there's still another DLC coming.

On February 10, Private Division and Obsidian Entertainment will release The Outer Worlds: Peril on Gorgon, the first narrative-led expansion for the critically acclaimed darkly humorous sci-fi RPG for the Nintendo Switch. The expansion was released previously for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC and is available individually or at a discount as part of The Outer Worlds Expansion Pass, which will also include The Outer Worlds: Murder on Eridanos, the second expansion set to launch on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC this fiscal year, and on Nintendo Switch later in calendar 2021.

Our third-quarter results last year benefited from the launches of Red Dead Redemption 2 on PC and the Outer Worlds.

"This fiscal year" means by the end of March.

I wonder how well the last DLC did. I have seen practically no one discuss it online.

This stinker is on sale for $30. What's the consensus on it? What price point is it worth getting? 30, 20, less? Are any of the expansions worth a play?

Less than 0. I got it for free on gamepass and I want my time back.

 

[Volourn]

Finally tried this on Game Pass. I think the term 'Game Pass' fits as in,"I'm gonna likely pass on thbis shit game."

'FO:NV in Space sounds fukkin' awesome' in theory. In practice - if this game shows - it is completely garbage.

Might try to push on a bit since I[m still early but HOLY FUKKIN' SHIT.

Is this Obsidian's worst game? It might very well be.

 

[Major_Blackhart]

And the worst part of it was we waited a near decade for the Cainarsky to come. And when it did...

Looks like Anderson was the Mastermind after all...

Come at me faggy:

Jokes aside, it was probably the whole team behind that mattered for Troika (as it usually happens)

This is probably right. I also think (at least) Cain went soft. If you watch the No Clip documentary on this game (which I recently did through gritted teeth), Cain talks about trying to make an RPG that is easily accessible and doesn't scare people off, but there's still depth if you want it.

It's like he stopped actually caring about RPGs. Maybe hindsight is 20/20, but the idea as he states it sounds pretty thin to me. As though you can remove all obstacles without removing the incentive to explore complex systems.

Dude just wants to cash in and retire somewhere.

space casino town? dead money rehash?

Megan Starks wouldn't play or have any interest in Dead Money. I'd expect a rehash of the casino from The Last Jedi if that's what it is.

Would be more appropriate for a game of Outer Worlds's caliber also.

I actually liked the game. Scratched my "space adventure!" itch.

This is going to trigger the Codex hive mind, but the experience felt like a weird mix of Fallout 2 and Bloodlines at times.

(Oh, and I miss ADA already )

Factory for Rizzo's, I believe. The factory on the right with the smokestacks spewing different colors is probably where they make Spectrum Vodka, gotta keep the branding!

I still need confirmation about what their "Project Ptero" was. I'm betting that they use Ptero blood as a sweetener rather than sugar.

Go replay ME trilogy,even andromeda is better than this one.

Serious?

Serious?

andromeda has fun combat thanks to the frostbite engine, so if you play it as a sci-fi shooter it's not bad
might want to kinda not pay attention to anything people are saying though

Yeah,andromeda was blast with all the bugs and shit in it. The writing was a mobile game level of generic,but still better than this one. This one is amazingly boring,it is really scary,i even fall asleep once....not joking.

How can one REplay a game they did not play even once, to begin with?

I got that feeling when i was writing that replay,but i decided to ignore it. Because it seemed highly improbable,nearly impossible. What kind of loser codexers haven't even played ME games?! Go play them now before i whip you in to shape!

Third-person shooters are not my thing.

Apparently it will be Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Which is, you know, kind of obvious in retrospect considering the corporation involved here :
