this game is only successful due to bethesda hate bandwagon and it rolled 20 on luck check on the time it was announced and released.

That's part of it, but also desperation because a "Bethesda style" game hasn't really come out since Fallout 4.

Contrary to others opinion (a singular praise), I don't find Kingdom Come Deliverance a good game and an enjoyable experience now, once it's finally finished with patching and DLCs. And I finished everything in this game just out of respect for Mafia 1 and OFP devs. Vavra basically pulled a ubisoft on this one, contrary to all these 'bethesda' comparisons.

My expectations were so low that the game actually managed to be a positive surprise. Just don't think of it as a cRPG. It's decent if you're cool with it being an adventure FPS shooter game.

One good review from a not so good youtuber:M



Digimon Cyber Sleuth is so good. Go play people. Drop this game and play it later.

you can disable quest markers.
I failed to find a way to de-select a quest in the journal and remove the quest arrow from the compass. Is there a way and did I just fail the PER/INT check?

I couldn't find a way to disable the quest marker, but I did disable the entire HUD and as far as I've gone that way (only half an hour or so) it's actually improving the exploration and combat quite a bit.

I've been pleasantly surprised to see that the world and dialogue don't require the use of waypoints for navigation so far, except the map in the case of a side quest.

Remains to be seen how well that will work as I continue. I'm doing the first main quest on Monarch, however far in that is.

My team has the sexiest and deadliest waifus you can recruit.
Obsidian's new overload is very happy with The Outer Worlds current state. It seems is doing p.well. +M


I've seen plenty of random people in social media (most of whom I didn't even know were gamers) talk about playing it, so it does seem to be attracting the casuals. I guess Obsidian wins.

I found the Inventory UI pretty terrible.
80% unused screen space while inspecting an item. All those numbers are just small fonts across the screen.
There's no reason why the item tabs cannot be larger.

I was at Best Buy today getting a new phone and was talking to the guy about games while my files transferred. He said he was playing Outer Worlds but it was frustrating because "it's so hard. I keep dying over and over and can't make progress." :lol:

I've been dying over and over on Supernova. :) And if it's not me dying it's a companion. The struggle is real, real fun.
