Is there anyone out there that "CAN'T WAIT" to play this game? It's exactly what you think it's going to be. A very mid fps-rpg experience.

If you acknowledge you're going to be in for a 7.5/10 game and that's your thing then enjoy it for all it's worth. Obsidian doesn't have it anymore. Knock it off. No reason why this game needs an early access release bonus.

Avowed was good. Honestly as long as they toned down the shitty comedy it'll be fine.

Not bashing you, but did you complete the game? I finished it but really didn't enjoy it. The lack of enemy variety killed it for me, and nothing really felt impactful in the way of gameplay. I was able to use the same bow throughout the game and it never really challenged me to change my playstyle. Also the story was very....uninspired and also the companions were uninteresting. The whole game felt like a shallow adventure to me. What did you enjoy about it?

I did finish it. I thought the story was interesting but I was a huge fan of PoE, I also liked the party. Magic combat was extremely fun.

It felt shallow and incomplete. For such a large studio with veteran rpg crafters, you'd think the game would have more to it then what was offered. It doesn't offer anything new, and what it does offer is very ok.

I liked the first one, it was cute and charming in its own way.
My main issue was that it was too easy, the itemization was lame (I found a gun in the first zone that was NEVER replaced because nothing better came along) and it ended it way too soon.
Felt like just as soon as things were heating up and ready to take off it was over.

They would need to step up with this one.

the first wasnt bad, but lack of variety hurt it in a few ways. Needs more enemy types, better guns.

the dialogue however was on point for OW1 and avowed.

I play plenty of games that aren't the most amazing thing ever. 7.5/10 does not mean bad. The Outer Worlds was an enjoyable game and the sequel also looks like an enjoyable game.

Yes, I'm excited for it. Between The Outer Worlds 1, Grounded 1 and Avowed, Obsidian has been on a roll for games I've found fun. I have no doubt that The Outer Worlds 2 will be fun. And dare I say, a better space rpg than Starfield.

Outer Worlds 1 was pretty bare bones. I didn't make it much farther than the first world. It felt like 20% of what an open world PRG should be. Barely anything to do.

I downloaded 2 though and I'm willing to give it a shot. The perk system or whatever it's called seems really fun.

It was decent fun. What's not to understand? I guess you have a "either it's perfect or it's unplayable" mindset

Most people outgrow this kind of thing in grade school. Tastes differ, and it's good to remember that there are many things where a difference of opinion is no problem at all.

Played some more last night. I have to say, I'm really enjoying the humor in the game so far. Did the side quest where the guy wearing double jump boots yelled "I can fly" right before falling to his death

I really liked the first. I like/love most obsidian games.

This one is supposedly better than the first in many ways. Yea, why wouldn't I be excited about it? Gonna finish my playthrough of Yotei first and then I'll be right on it.

This was one of the reasons I used to have gamepass for. There were games where it only ate up soo much hours of my time without it being 40hrs to beat. I never player OuterWorlds before, but I can understand people enjoying it.
