Depends on what you want out of it.

I went in expecting "Fallout: New Vegas IN SPACE", because that's how most people describe it, but I was ultimately disappointed because it felt like the Diet Coke version of New Vegas. Like, you could see the framework that would have made it an awesome game, but everything felt half-assed and underdeveloped, to the point where you're always going "That wasn't as good as it could have/should have been."

What really hurt for me is the fact that narrative is always one of my biggest selling points for games (especially RPGs), with characterization a close second - yet there are some major flaws in the story and most of the NPCs are bland as fuck (they're mostly one-note jokes that I can't imagine ever allowing on to my ship if I was playing the game logically as opposed to going "I have to be stupid here so as not to miss content"). In the same vein, a lot of the quests sort of feel so immersion-breaking that it ruins the game's one selling point. There were WAY too many points where I was pulled completely out of the story because it felt like I was playing a tabletop RPG run by a shitty railroading DM.

With New Vegas I was motivated to play multiple times, with multiple different sorts of characters, trying to experience the story in different ways, because I was invested in the story, characters, and setting. With Outer Worlds, I never felt compelled to play it a second time (and barely finished the game the first time through), because almost every aspect of the story, setting, gameplay, music, and everything else just felt mediocre.

It also doesn't help that the entire running joke of the game is "CAPITALISM IS BAD!", but there's no complexity to it, and the joke starts running thin very, very quickly. They'd probably justify the lack of subtlety with "Hey, it's satire!", but good satire has to do more than just hit you in the face with the message over and over and over again.

It might be worth picking up if you can get it for $10-20 or so, but $30-40 is starting to feel too high, and anything more than that feels like too much.


This is pretty much what I wanted to say, but didn't feel like typing out.

Wasn't that game said to be the Skyrim killer but failed spectacularly?

Also why though?

My memory of the game is hazy but I thought it was bloated with generic quests and unlike Skyrim couldn't compensate with a well made and atmospheric universe, it was very by-the-numbers. I also remember a shiton of unesscecary mechanics like crafting and such.

The biggest sin of all though was that it was piss easy, I'm not kidding a small toddler could beat the game on its hardest setting doing nothing but button mashing, which sucks because the combat felt really good but nothing could withstand more than 2 attack strings.

For the studios first and only game though it was solid, most of my complaints could easily be fixed in a sequel or with patches.

The game cost something like 3 million to make though and it didn't make it back obviously.

I'll never forgive this game or devs for its missed potential, I remember watching the teaser trailer advertising it as a Fire Emblem x SMT crossover and being incredibly excited for it as a fan of both franchises only for it's full reveal to be nothing like either series and complete, unapologetic weeb trash.

I've never been more disappointed for a game in my life.

All it makes me want to do is play a better loot game like Diablo.

Also I beat it in one session that lasted less than 4 hours on the hardest difficulty they allow at first., I guess you're supposed to play it more than once but it's the same levels over and over, the rifts in Diable had more variance than this.

Game feels pretty meh, yeah it's only 20 bucks but you might as well just get Diablo.

I played long after realease and I can't recall nearly as many timed mission people talk about. Besides playing like a snail and inching through a map one square at a time is boring so I don't mind encouraging more engaging playstyles.

I had a massive issue with the half assed stealth though, I go through all the hassle of getting to the objective undetected, surrounded by enemies and I still get detected for doing the obj successfully? Or I fire with one unit across the map and they immediately know where my other guy is despite being 100ft away the opposite direction behind 2 concrete walls? That's fucking stupid.

Also TC sounds like he doesn't understand the game mechanics. Never let your guard down, never put anyone out in the open for whatever reason unless you know they'll get an extra action point somehow or it's the very last enemy and when you do you should be right in thier face And cover is still cover, it doesn't matter if you're on the other side of a waist high wall, the enemy still has cover bonus.
