Outcast: A New Beginning Review - A Disappointment
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 бер 2024
- Outcast - A New Beginning is a follow-up to what is widely considered to be one of the first fully-3D open world games to have ever been released, the original Outcast back in 1999. As a modern video game release, Outcast - A New Beginning boasts an impressive new jetpack that hopes to give new life to the act of exploration in a massive open world.
While the combat and traversal in Outcast - A New Beginning can be a lot of fun, especially thanks to the unique approach to weapon customization and the jetpack, the game is filled with archaic design decisions that can be frustrating. Even the story feels incredibly badly done, despite having some characters that ooze charm and sincerity. - Ігри

this review is a dissapointment its great fun
Everybody gets one ....
Tell him Peter....
You are incorrect to review a game that you didn't even get through HALF of! There is so much more to it when you finish quests for towns, ESPECIALLY the Emea questline, it opens up a TON of gameplay AND exploration options! Unbelievably LAZY review! I am having a great time with this game, but it does have some bugs and THAT wasn't even mentioned!
I cringed overtime he said Adelph-i-a instead of Adelpha. Sounds like they didn't actually pay attention to the game.
So so saying all their criticism invalid now cuz they saying adelpha wrong? What a karen nitpicking the little things. - out
@@roahnosh you should be out, you don’t pay attention either, never said their review is invalid…. And, You are allowed to comment on my comment but I’m not allowed to comment…. Sounds like a big mama Karen just looking to put other people in their place. Is this your first day on internet?! It’s not nitpicking, it’s a name for crying out loud, you should know the name of a person you talk to or about things you are talking about.
I see the reviews on Microsoft Store and they were all positive. It's an old style game and this guy bemoans that like it's a bad thing! Sign me up I say.
Im enjoying it. Not every game is for everyone. We all like different things. I don't listen to game reviewers anymore cuz i almost missed out on a few games i actually loved.
Cap , guys this game is surprisingly good and the combat feels really good. Common review L
Wow. This review is virtually the opposite to what everyone else has been saying. Intriguing.
Yea it's almost like people have different opinions on entertainment. Crazy
@@SolidSnake240 That’s what makes it intriguing, oh sarcastic one.
This game literally has a perfect rating on xbox store. The 5 star ratio makes it one of the top rated games rightnow on the store
I enjoyed the demo, way better than the slop thats called live-service
You're not wrong but most live service games implement live service games the wrong way, the best example of what live service games should be is currently helldivers 2
@i_r_hypno9408 sadly Helldivers 2 is the exception, not the rule.
Hopefully devs/publishers will learn from the success of Helldivers 2, and use it as a template
How could you say that there is a single gun when there are two?
Obviously all reviews are opinions, but this feels like the wrong person reviewed this 😂
It's Stargate SG-1 meets Avatar meets Just Cause.
When a reviewer highlights a bunch of genuinely great aspects and then immediately glazes over them, mentions other bits that most people consider positives as if they were negatives, doesn't mention a bunch of other fun stuff, and then really focuses on the shortcomings... it's obvious this game is clearly not your jam.
Now, it's probably not going to win any awards, but the game is a great AA title and it's worth giving the demo a try!
I found the demo to be much less interesting than the actual game. The actual game is really good, but it helps to have played the original. The world of Adelpha was and is the star of the game, alongside the beautiful music and the quest to help the Talan get rid of the invaders. I started playing the original in 2001, and kept revisiting it throughout the years. Also played Second Contact, which was a good remaster in most ways. But this new game takes everything to a whole new level, while still combining fun action with good story-telling. It may not be as ground-breaking as the original, but it's just as much fun to explore Adelpha again and help the Talan once more. Great fun !!!
@@FrenkSummers Now that's a review I can get behind!
This guy isn’t even the reviewer.
He’s just reading the review made by someone else. That’s how removed things are at GB. I’d put money on the voice we’re hearing never even playing a single second of the game.
I didn’t realize there was a demo, thanks for this
Seems to be a trend on this channel. Their reviews have went to shit over the last few months. Not all of them, but a lot.
Disappointment? One of The best games of The yeat
I'm a new subscriber, and I have to ask: Why do you guys keep reusing the same footage throughout your review videos? Do you not record enough unique material to fill 8 minutes? @5:00 and @5:29, @3:43 and @5:40 in this video, for example. I've noticed this trend in several of your latest review videos. It's pretty tacky.
Because they clearly didnt play hardly any of the game....
They've been doing that for the longest time to be fair. Lazy video editing. Like it can't be that much to shoot a few extra scenes and gameplay for your reviews.. 😅
Game is good and makes fun, you are a disappointment
I don't agree. My only complaint is that at nearly £60 on Xbox it's overpriced. I would say £40-50 would be better.
Banishers Ghosts of New Eden got AA pricing right.
I saw some mistakes. Red Helidium is ammunition for the rifle, not for upgrading anything.
This game is great.
Nooooo not a disappointment 😞
It's not
@@roschy1003out of curiosity what is a fair price you would pay for the game.
@TheBigChoomah
I would say 40e is a fair price. It's a little overpriced, but I bought it for 70 euros and I'm having a blast
You know Luke grew up on Tattoo-weenie, right? Yeah, that's what I thought. It's called Adelpha. What the fuck are you guys smoking over there?
I love that people are having a great time with it. Will pick it up 🙂
This is a funner game than most
Thanks for fixing the audio.
I’ve still got the original. I think I’ll play that again first.
Nah homie, this is one of the best games of the year. Next to the rest of the industry, (excluding things like GOW or like Elden Ring) this hoe a 9.
The demo on PS5 is fun IMO, with the gliding and jet-packing, and combat too. The island is interesting too. I don't think there is a day/night cycle.
Was always curious about the original and couldn't ever run it, bought the second contact version and really enjoyed it (knowing it's a remake of a late 90's PC game with plenty of jank). Looking forward to playing this one when it's half off I think
Didn't even play long enough to unlock the second gun. You have two guns in the demo even. This was an awful review.
beautiful game is this 🎉🎉
Wrong..This game is a Blast!...Total BS
I agree, it is amazing! Could it have been better yes but I find myself laughing and enjoying it more than most games
It is a blast if you are completely brainless kid and enjoy vapid filler content. The original was groundbreaking and a real adventure where you have to find your way. Here you just dragged around like a child following the magic arrow around and do copy paste tasks over and over again.
I've only played the demo so I can't give a real opinion but playing the demo it was fun but the world felt empty and a lil boring but Idk if that was jus the demo or if that's jus how the game is
Meh, I disagree. I think you're the one who's wrong. That's how opinions work.
It is a blast if you are a small child who just want to be lead around by the hand and not have to think for yourself a single time. I guess that is most gamers these days though. This game is nothing like the original.
We need more games like this. This game is an absolute blast. Unlike this review.
Original was groundbreaking. This is totally valid for the new brainless generation who don't want to use their brain and just being dragged around like a child doing filler copy paste content.
*vapid
100% convinced they haven’t played the game.
Suspiciously vague on most aspects and sounds like other reviews.
Suspected for a while this lot don’t actually play the games.
ACG all the way with reviews for me.
It's just so weird to me that they made the protagonist so old. He looks like a 55-year-old budget Michael De Santa.
The number-one reason I won't be buying this game is the demo. What a disappointment that was. The fact that they only allowed you 20 minutes to try the game is just the tip of the iceberg. Usually a demo implies unlimited time within a very restricted piece of the game, or, with the rise of Playstation's trials, 1-2 hours to play as much as you can do within the full release game. 20 minutes is just not enough time to get a feel for the game, and that 20 minutes didn't feel good to me anyway.
Oh well. Plenty of other, better, and less expensive or at least more appropriately priced games to play instead! (Oh yeah, this game is a full $70 despite looking worse than Mass Effect 2, a game from 2010.
Combat is sluggish and your character is on ice, very one dimensional stand block shoot. In the end all the cutscenes made me quit. Holy shoot they're annoying! Every minute a cutscene just to see him press a button or take cover.
I hoped for a Sequel from Appeal themselves because the OG Outcast was amazing imo. Sadly these sequels doesnt come close to the feeling the first game gave you, but they are good enough that wont leave a mark in the history books. I've completed the first game, I dont know how many times... 10 or so, and im not tired of it. This game is worthy of a playthrough but doesnt really pull me back in, like the first game still does. Good Review.
Sounds like yet another starfield...
That Starfield butthurt is still going, uh?
Its actually pretty great, alot of people dont agree with this review who've played
GamingBolt nailed it. Too many cut scenes and loading screens.
sounds quite familiar...
Wait, did this guy review Outcast or Starfield?!?
I was looking forward to this game and I have to say so far, it’s not much. The quests are boring, the enemies are unchallenging and boy does it need a patch, or three.
How far into the game are you? And did you play the original back in the day? It's best to have played the original, makes the whole story (and world) much more understandable. Plus, you have to play this one for at least 3 or 4 hours before the game opens up and becomes much more than the sum of parts. For the fans of the original Cult Classic, this really is a treat !! (10 hours into the game now, I think I'm at 25 percent of the main story line)
I'm a big fan of the first one, which I have played multiple times since 1999. I looked forward to the sequel and I've played it a few hours, and it does nothing to transport me to this new take on Adelpha, unlike the original game. I also hate the user interface and the shooting bits get old real fast. The original had a magical aspect to it, with its quirky characters, funny dialogue and great music, but while this new game looks beautiful, it also leaves me cold and I can't be bothered with exploring the world because of my issues with the bland gameplay, poor user interface and quest solving. A letdown for me. And I was so excited to try it.
@@MultiDarkElf Have you played past the part that Cutter Slade must dive into a lake to retrieve some kind of orb? That was the moment it clicked with me again. Also, the way most quests intertwine is quite original although it's difficult to recapture the originality of the first game. It would have been great if Cutter had the same looks and voice at least, but Im still happy with what the developers have come up with.
Optimise this crap looking game on pc. Even on my 14 core cpu I get bottlenecked in towns. Looks like I need 24 core cpu to play this ps4 looking game lol. 😂😂😂
I didn't think 2024 could possibly beat last year for terrible releases, yet here we are. (Goes and buys something from 2015)
This game is awesome
@@capnphuktard5445 The games a bit pile of shit. It has bad animations bad combat bad writing bad controls the only thing good about it is the world and how big and awesome it is. It has too many loading screens/cinematics that rip you out of the immersion. The quests are boring. The story is w/e. The sound and music are meh too.
@@khemlar4988 It's like the original on steroids and goofy fun. It is a bit too janky I'll have to admit.
