Preview The Outer Worlds August Bonanza - Gameplay Footage, Previews and Interviews

[oldmanpaco]

I just looked at the steam page and it says no release until 2020. Why all the press now? Is it going into early access or something? God knows Obsidian games can always use more beta testers.

deterministic system > RNG

As much this looks good to me, I still don't want Pillars 3 to be first person game as some suggested.

 

[cvv]

Why does every futuristic FPS (post-apoc or otherwise) has cartoon aesthetics nowadays?

The 18-35 audience isn't what it used to be.

 

[Quillon]

If it had cartoon aesthetics(bioshock, dishonored, borderlands) I'd have been the first one to tell Cainarsky fuck off. It just has colorful color palette

[Makabb]

Why does every futuristic FPS (post-apoc or otherwise) has cartoon aesthetics nowadays? Or am I just getting very, very old and without sense of humour?

Nah they look shit

 

[thesecret1]

Why do all the character models look so damn ugly?

[Corvinus]

Yes, why indeed, thesecret1. "Unappealing" is the best description I've seen of this game yet. Unappealing ...In both artistic style and otherwise. Who thought that giving the women dyke haircuts was a good idea? Sailor Woedica? The presumed dykes of the art department? Nothing in this game stands out or interests me, and it is not because I've grown old and bitter.

They all have that bethesda plastic look.

I can almost taste Feargus' elation in spending all the Microsoft marketing cash for this stuff. Unfortunately, this game's promise peaked with the reveal trailer. This last press tour is likely to be a complete waste of resources.

Marketing is paid and organized by Private Division. Probably some of that Epic money in use.

Unless Feargus is diverting some money, though wouldn't know why he'd need to unless he does that shit purely for the sake of it.

any word on unarmed?

as in, is it OP like in New Vegas before it was borked?

I asked. Unarmed is not in the game.

Personally I always play unarmed, so this is a huge minus.

what

heresy

Agreed. I play Unarmed when I'm stuck with a DM who I know is going to screw me on itemization (such as by arbitrarily taking away my armor and weapons), but going Unarmed in games themed around finding and using big guns seems a bit idiosyncratic.

 

[Kyl Von Kull]

(I though science was about people like Pavlov, Mendeleev, Einstain, etc,

Is this deliberate?

As in the Einstain Bears.

You're gonna learn to respect the dykes, boy. Or we're gonna make you learn.

But your likeness has such a nice haircut. And no flannel shirt! Sweetheart material. Maybe you are the uh... receiver?

 

[Fenix]

Why do all the character models look so damn ugly?

soy

Actually, this game made another imprssion to me - it almost looks like Kane and Boyarsky not actually managing the project.
Like, how to say it clearer - like if they are like old queen. Queen is a queen, but she is old and not actualy rule anything.
Like if they started that project, and then they were like softly pushed aside.
Something like that.

 

[Robert Erick]

Looks just as I expected: bad.

world record in unappealing companions. they really need Avellone

Even her jacket has seen too many dubious design decisions during development.

Player is asked to help to kill or otherwise harm someone named Clive (Not Tirone or Akhmed)

Someone named Cleve, you mean?

 

[Serious_Business]

If I understand correctly the "tactical" mode in the game, where time is slowed down, is made possible by "brain damage". Exciting, huh

Someone wrote down early on that cryosleep and the VATS power should be tied together somehow, so that's what they have to call back to every time the subject comes up.
