Sometimes, you get what you pay for. As a gamer, your time is a far more important resource than money.I am very cautiously optimistic. I haven't played The Outer Worlds yet because of the endless grave warnings I keep receiving but hey, I have it for free on Epic
It's a very bland game wrapped in incredibly frustrating and abrasive writing. It genuinely isn't worth playing. It took me like three playthroughs over 5~ years to really get off the first planet because boredom killed every other playthrough, and it actually turns out it gets worse when you leave the boring-ass starting area.
I agree but man, this game is just getting trashed lol.Sometimes, you get what you pay for. As a gamer, your time is a far more important resource than money.I am very cautiously optimistic.

It wasn't bad. It's a Good game that isn't culturally important.
I think it's going to be good. It's just not going to be 15 out of time game or the 2nd coming of Jesus which is what our collective hive mind want it to be.
Pretty confident he's been meddling. The Microsoft babysitter may have put a stop to it.
Thank you for the reasoned response, this was the impression I got in both cases. Temper your expectations, Codex, lol. There are countless great RPGs out there, one that is sufficiently "good" or "solid" is fine.
I think it's pure shit that he was raked through the mud over some bullshit texts.
They only did Stick of Truth. It wasn't bad, particularly if you're a fan of the show... but the sequel was better.
Not that it looks interesting to me, but Silent Hill was made by a group of developers Konami didn't have any faith in and people that they only hired just to keep any other studio from hiring them. They put them in a room in the basement to make a game they didn't really care anything about and it was one of their biggest hits ever and something they never could manage to replicate once that team left the company. I'm not even sure the moral of that story, but I'm sure it isn't that games these days just might suck because of corporate interference and design-by-committee.
This is my take as well.
That's the world we are living in unfortunately. And once your reputation is tarnished, it tends to stay that way regardless of legal exoneration.
It is the year of purple brains producing purple prose for purple-colored games.
Yes, and it's pretty close to dissuading me from even trying the game out.
Avowid.
I don't think it will be bad, just kind of forgettable. I don't get the impending sense of doom that I get from watching the DAVe promos but none of the companions sound interesting to me and the little we've heard of the story doesn't seem very inspired. I'm open to being proved wrong and I'll probably still get it, either at release if nothing else good comes out around the same time or in the digital bargain bin somewhere down the road, but I'm not particularly optimistic about it.
