Best action/adventure on the PC

If you enjoy action/adventure (a sub-genre that is essentially defined by the Legend of Zelda series), you must play this game. It's a genre that is somewhat under represented on the PC, but that doesn't diminish the fact that its the very best action/adventure that the PC has to offer and easily in the top 5 action/adventures for all platforms. A huge, living world that's a joy to explore. Weapons that are fun to use. Tons of NPCs to interact with (all fully voiced and going about their daily tasks). Great orchestral music, used to excellent effect. Beautiful, and engrossing, this is not the kind of game to come along very often. It's a crime that the sequel got killed in development.

Good but Flawed

Outcast is a really imaginative game that plays like a cross between Myst and a third-person shooter. The art style may remind you of Armed & Dangerous or Giants: Citizen Kabuto--either way, it's a great compliment. The action is a little slow, but the adventure side makes up for it. The main problem with Outcast comes from its save system. The developers incorporated it into the story somewhat by giving you a device called a Gamsaav, which you hold in your hand for a moment and it stores your "essence." It also emits a light that will attract any nearby enemies to you, so you need to be in a safe place before saving. Sounds find in theory, but in practice it makes saving an arduous process. Where most PC games give you a quicksave/quickload option to save yourself the trouble of repeating long sections if you fail, saving in Outcast takes so much time that you'll probably neglect to do it often. But as long as you're careful you won't need to reload, right? Wrong. Outcast isn't the most stable game. Three times so far I've had to reload a far back save because the game has frozen or crashed on me. It's really made me appreciate the checkpoint systems in modern games. As much as I like this game, I can't give it more than two stars because of the frustration it's caused me. Since it just froze on me again, I have about fifteen minutes of catching up to do when I reload it.

The best game ever

For me the best game ever, was so sad when Outcast 2 has been canceled, but thanks to the gamer and programmer who create Outcast 2 for free, 8 years after but finally :)

It's better than you'd think

A really revolutionary game, nothing like any games before its release. You might think that it's filled with bugs, being a pioneer among video games, but it isn't. It's a great open-world game, with a good story, a wonderful soundtrack, interesting characters and a good bunch of original ideas. I learned about this game a year ago, so i didn't play it when it was released. So when i say it's a favourite of mine, it has nothing to do with nostalgy.
