As someone who enjoys gray morality in games like Kotor 2, this game does it better than any I've ever played.

i thought it was just ok, kind of falls off after the first planet because then you realize you have seen everything the game has to offer. the braindead combat doesnt help either. definitely worth playing tho

Even if the game was more difficult there's nothing interesting to loot anyway. Tinkering guns always seemed like the better thing to do.

This is a million times better than Fallout 4.
People slurped up that garbage like it was cocaine. But make it actually meaningful 25 hours versus 45 hours of inane garbage and apparently that makes the game bad. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

it's like almost directly in between Borderlands and Fallout 4. but i don't think that's necessarily a good thing.
it has the systems for a large game like Fallout 4, including a multitude of items and objectives. the problem is that the game itself is about as deep as a Borderlands game, or even less so if you take the weapon variety into account. thus you're left with too many things for too small of a playspace. you quickly run out of things to do and eventually don't even need to use a majority of the systems that're given to you in order to beat the game. i thought it was fun, clever, and interesting. but it was made to be a much bigger and deeper game than it really ended up being. --- Disclaimer: There's a good chance the above post could be sarcasm.

The thing with Outer Worlds is that people are really into it more because of what other games aren't instead of what this game is.
It's a mix of Bioware and Bethesda games and both of those studios last games aren't traditional RPGs. But Outer Words doesn't really come close to matching the highs of either of those games. It's just sort of middling. If this was released last generation no one would really pay attention to it. Hell I think I liked Alpha Protocol more. That game had a lot of jankiness but at least it felt ambitious. Outer Worlds just feels like a mix of not-as-good Mass Effect and not-as-good Fallout New Vegas. --- Kind Regards, Darmik ...

I think my biggest problem with The Outer Worlds was when I heard them claim it was the game they always wanted to make right after it released.
I was like "Really?" Cause I had fun with it, but it felt like Obsidian making a budget title while they were waiting for the Microsoft deal to go through or something. It didn't feel like a "the game we always wanted to make" game. --- For you, the day Skorpio graced your topic was the most important day in your life. But for me, it was Tuesday. ...

It's okay. Like people said, it really peaked at edgewater.
And I don't really mind a short game if the narrative is really well done but the end of outer worlds definitly had a ".... that's it?" Feel to it. --- "People incapable of guilt usually do have a good time" -Detective Rust Cohle ... Copied to Clipboard!

It just felt small.
The only planet that felt appropriately sized was Groundbreaker should've been twice or three times the size with a lot more to do, at least on subsequent visits. Game felt like a checklist. I actually remember finishing up my quest log at one point, counting the quests, thinking to myself "that's a fair number but I wonder how many are left" and then it turned out all I had left to do was finish the game. Props that they did give you multiple options and endings in quests but in the end most things seemingly just lacked the proper amount of impact to leave a lasting impression ... Copied to Clipboard!

My issue is that it wasn't morally gray enough
They set up some really really interesting scenarios and moral dilemmas but then make The Board so cartoonishly evil that it all falls apart. I literally rolled my eyes when It doesn't even make sense. Solid_Seb posted... Biggest complaint I've heard is its pretty short. It's a good game.
