Why? I thought everyone loved it when it was announced?

Public opinion on Outerworlds became negative after they announced it was an Epic exclusive.

People are seriously trashing this game in all the YouTube comment sections.

And their opinion matters as much as garbage. ''Buah this game not launch in this store, therefore i need to say is bad , looks like a 2007 game and suck a little more of CDPR big cock in the meantime''.

Btw A new preview shown that trailer weapon that make enemies float. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1EZZqmrmTw&t=372s

But the game does look like its from 2007 regardless of the store, so they are right

Is this the thread to discuss The Outer Worlds? I got confused for a second.

Anyway, from the footage I've watched, there is a curious tendency that male characters have much more detailed and unique faces, and generally better facial animations than the women. Both male and female characters don't have facial expressions strong enough to match the voice acting expressiveness, and the end result comes across as funny to weird.

Also, it has been my impression that female characters largely look like a bunch of butch lesbians, the kind you change the sidewalk when you see them walking down the street. I saw one, then two, three such cases, and then I started taking screenshots.

I kinda lost interest in this game when I saw the first trailer and just looking at the new gameplay stuff now I'm even less impressed.

Gunplay and movement look terrible if they don't know how to do it hire someone who does.
U.I is straight up shit.
Environments look fairy horrible with poor lighting,creature design verges on comically bad.
As for the characters fuck me ugly isn't the word.
If I have to stare at these fuckers make the women at least vaguely feminine.There's a reason every other mod made for games makes things/people look better it's because we don't want to look at bogmonsters in our fantasy games.Even in real life women look better than this shitshow.
Dialogue,meh,skip,skip,skip,skip voice acting was bland at best. Conversations felt tedious vaguely childish and just plain uninteresting.
RPG systems might be ok but if I have to do a whole load of poor shooting looking at bright pink shit whilst talking to ugly retards I think I'll pass.

Also the AI is like carbon copy of Gamebryo's. I was hoping for improvement, the first person shooting is one of the worst parts of Gamebryo gameplay.

Notice that the attributes affect critical hit damage, not chance. Like in Tim's 2017 talk: https://rpgcodex.net/article.php?id=10609

Worry not, despairers. After a second look I noticed that weapon skills do increase critical hit chance. Cainism has been foiled!

Do you describe FNV ?
what bothers me is that as much as FNV had the same problems, as much... FNV was still an open world, aesthetically and thematically coherent. And here, it doesn't seem to be the case. I'm not sure that the writing eclipses the rest (even if there are some punchlines that made me laugh).

I haven't played FNV for a long time now
I think the women were fairly normal but the rest probably applies,but at the time I enjoyed it, the colour palette was certainly better.
That's the problem tho' this game doesn't seem to have improved from it and that was nearly 10 years ago.

Oracsbox I’m not sure which video you watched, but I’ve been recommending everyone take a look at the PlayStation footage that shows some of the early game stuff in Edgewater (on the other, less weird looking planet). I’ve watched a few of these, and it looks much better than the rest & has higher quality content.

Unfortunately there is this new philosophy in the game industry who claims women in games are too sexualized.

League of legend is a good example, in the beginning they had those characters:

then people complained that the game needed less sexualized women and we got this:

Spoiler

See the difference?

Sorry , fuck off. Seriously. Talyiah is perfectly normal , it's actually a breath of fresh air , also even to this day Lol have new Champs Super Babe Anime Face character , see Kaisa that make not fucking sense when you compare her lore to her actual apparence or Qiyana her deformed body.

She has no tits and she has giants eyebrows. First 2 are thousand times better and hotter.

At least there is a variety.

 

[Zombra]

A couple things I found interesting in Duraframe300's video above:

You can fine tune Companion behavior to only use melee or ranged, AND to either be aggressive, defensive, or passive i.e. only attacking when you tell them to.
Amazingly, this means that a low-violence playthrough can still enjoy companions without them blowing away everything in sight as in New Vegas.

Apparently you can sell mains stat to Below Average and maybe even lower during character creation. Nice.

I've had a look
perhaps I'm being unfair i don't know it just doesn't grab me it seems old and I can't quite put my finger on it but there's something off about it.
If the writing isn't too bad overall and it's not weighed down by bugs and the rpg mechanics are solid it could be great game for those that like it and that's fine.
I just don't think it's for me,mind you I don't like a lot of stuff coming out now.. so maybe it's just me and my changing tastes in what I like.

I hate the dialogue and voice acting and the fact that there is so much of it. Fucking relentless. Also the giant red arrows over the heads of enemies. Why are they so worried about little timmy xbox kiddie? Is having 2 other characters that shoot everything for you not already enough? Or a stop time ability with a sniper rifle. I don't even know what the uber C and X buttons do yet but I assume one makes you invincible and the other one destroys the planet. Also that area they keep showing is ugly as fuck. I am not a graphics whore, KOTC is one of my favorite games ever, but geezus, it looks like someone smeared moldy turds all over my screen.

 

[anvi]

Coooooooool so you don't even need to play the game at all! You can press one button to make your companions run up ahead, then press another button and they destroy everything and you can sit back and watch like a drooling console retard. There is a cooldown on the companion godmode though. So you have to take a handful of cheesey puffs and wait 8 seconds before sending them to slaughter the next convenient group of 5 enemies.

Also I get why they added the giant red arrows now. It is not just for the dim target audience, but also to help you see enemies because EVERYTHING IS FUCKING BROWN. The characters, the ground, the sky, the walls, scenery, the buildings, it is just a big mush of shit.

 

[Zombra]

I can't figure out how to reach out to the developers. I wanted to ask about the stupid UI arrows and whether they can be turned off (along with all the rest of the clutter). I posted on the official forums and 24 hours later my post is still at the top of the forum with no replies.

 

[Saerain]

Man, we've had a sudden change from criticizing how colorful it is to "everything is brown".

IDK if that's true or not buut. I read in reddit a comment from a supposed Obsidian U.I Dev that you can turn on a setting that fades out the quest active/no quest active U.I when you don't have any quest active. I gonna try found that comment..

Edit: here https://www.reddit.com/r/Games/comments/cl3xho/the_outer_worlds_giant_bomb_unfinished/evt2z9a/
They give you the option to disable the quest log at least..

I lost my breath reading this and laughing about it! man...
