The Outer Worlds is an award-winning single-player first-person sci-fi RPG from Obsidian Entertainment and Private Division.
Lost in transit while on a colonist ship bound for the furthest edge of the galaxy, you awake decades later only to find yourself in the midst of a deep conspiracy threatening to destroy the Halcyon colony. As you explore the furthest reaches of space and encounter various factions, all vying for power, the character you decide to become will determine how this player-driven story unfolds. In the corporate equation for the colony, you are the unplanned variable.
KEY FEATURES
The player-driven story RPG
In keeping with the Obsidian tradition, how you approach The Outer Worlds is up to you. Your choices affect not only the way the story develops; but your character build, companion stories, and end game scenarios.
You can be flawed, in a good way
New to The Outer Worlds is the idea of flaws. A compelling hero is made by the flaws they carry with them. While playing The Outer Worlds, the game tracks your experience to find what you aren't particularly good at. Keep getting attacked by Raptidons? Taking the Raptiphobia flaw gives you a debuff when confronting the vicious creatures, but rewards you with an additional character perk immediately. This optional approach to the game helps you build the character you want while exploring Halcyon.
Lead your companions
During your journey through the furthest colony, you will meet a host of characters who will want to join your crew. Armed with unique abilities, these companions all have their own missions, motivations, and ideals. It's up to you to help them achieve their goals, or turn them to your own ends.
Explore the corporate colony
Halcyon is a colony at the edge of the galaxy owned and operated by a corporate board. They control everything... except for the alien monsters left behind when the terraforming of the colony’s two planets didn’t exactly go according to plan. Find your ship, build your crew, and explore the settlements, space stations, and other intriguing locations throughout Halcyon.
It's exactly that: a game with VERY similar vibe to Fallout: New Vegas, with better graphics and way cooler combat system, well fleshed - out NPCs, about the same amount of humour and replayability. It's also significantly streamlined: quests are well laid out, paths are clear, playing is never tedious, combat is quick and engaging, enemies are interesting, inventory management is never a pain in the neck etc.
The only element I would like them to upgrade is the amount of content, because the world they created here seems a lot bigger than the game allows you to visit. For a game with that scome, a little bit more content wouldn't hurt nobody, right?
While not revolutionary, this game pretty much has all it needs to keep my interest from start to finish. So a 9/10 is well deserved here.
This game is ok, story was good in the first half of the game then it kind of went down hill, the gameplay was fine, graphics are also a bit meh. and it only lasted around 5 hours for me, and that was after i had done all the side quests and main quests, overall, just buy on a sale.
Played on GamePass - it was utter bilge, devoid of creativity. It's a looter shooter with crap pointless loot. A waste of time and energy for all concerned.
