It's a fantastic adventure!
After aboiut 15 hours in I am having the time of my life. It is a memorable adventure. And it feels like an adventure. Outcast has a wide variety of movement modes. All, exept the winglider, feel responsive and accurate enough. Traversal is enjoyable and fast. The glider mode is keyboard based. It is functional enough for movement in the open world, but it is not great for the parkour puzzles. I don't have all the upgrades yet, so that may improve. There is a fair bit of collecting, but all the collections so far have been wrapped into an interesting mini activity. They are quick enough to do and don't feel like a grind or a chore. So far the graphics are good, performance is alright, and the environment composition is outstanding. It looks right and in general, it looks gorgeous. I've had one or two slowdowns during cutscenes but gameplay has flowed well in my mid-of-the-line computer. The story is keeping me interested, and entertained so far. I like the protagonist. He's no wide-eyed immature kid, but a "been there done that" grumpy old man that hides his impatience behind some campy humor. Many of the characters are fun and memorable too. With what I've seen so far it seems well worth the money.
