Yet for some reason they don't mind playing games like RDR2, GTAV, and Mass Effect, even though they're extremely cinematic as well. Wonder why that is?🤔

    One aspect I really love playing about this game is that they do really do a lot of dialogue. I won't spoil it but there was a situation where I lied to someone then I told the truth later and they called me out on it. In every bethesda game I ever played That never happens. If I lie then suddenly start speaking the truth the Npc brushes it off, but in Obsidian they actually made situations that lying then telling the truth will at least get a response.

Only issues I've run into involved some UI issues for loot off corpses (weird angles to trigger and sometimes straight refusing to display) and a crash when I left it on pause for a few hours to go get groceries then tried to resume (figure that was due to some combination of the autosave and my computer dumping data from the RAM since it was not being used for an extended period of time).

      John James Rambo I cant help but agree with John here, the game is highly overrated, as fun as I have with playing the game, I still can’t help but feel like it is missing a few links to the game that would make it feel ‘Perfect’, I agree with it being a good game, but it isn’t a perfect game, it’s fun, I’ve played through it for nearly 10-15 hours by now only after exploring three areas (yes, three whole areas, you will be doing a lot of back tracking), and trust me, it’ll take you way more then 10-15 hours

    • @tannerfinney8211
      @tannerfinney8211 5 років тому +1

      John James Rambo Oh no I totally understand, I’m going through my first play through right now and thought that maybe normal difficulty would still be rather difficult (considering it’s my first run with the game) - Come to find out it is rather easy to fight against AI if you just stick to a distance and pick them off by just headshotting them down to a certain amount of health before picking them off with either another shot from the same weapon, or to get up close to finish them off with another.. I do hear you with the ‘Unique Weapons’ that they have put in, though they are still the same gun models as to that of any other gun in the game, to say the HMG unique weapon I have looks exactly like the regular HMG that you’d find in a vending machine or on a dead body, though with a few minor tweaks to the gun to make it unique, it never felt like it was different from any of the other guns. The looting being chore is a major problem I have in this game, due to the fact that you can find damn near EVERYTHING in crates, bodies, or even just laying on the ground or on a table, their is too much loot to really be able to get a good feel for each item, health items and ammo along with bits are a major problem (especially all the health items.)
      Though it is a game for those who enjoy more of a dialogue driven storyline, i still can’t help but feel it does miss a lot of options that Fallout NV use to have, even though I am comparing these two as they are their own separate titles, they are easy to compare with dialogue, where as you said NV is a more serious tone, Outer worlds really does act like a more watered down NV/Bioshock, in my opinion of course. Although I enjoy it myself, it has its flaws

I seriously don't understand all the love other than the wonderfully crafted corperate greed story and some interesting dialogue choices (that don't seem to matter much? ) The graphics are advertised as amazing but i find them underwhelming and very last gen-ish. The combat is meh , the art design is quirky but kind of dumb looking at the same time. The enemy's are copy paste mehhhhh. Customization is meh. UI is meh. Your map is meh. Your spaceship is meh. There is literally lazy detail in every nook and cranny of this game. Your companions are annoying AF except for Max. I didn't even want them with me most of the time it was like hanging out with annoying millenials. It's a SPACE game where you don't even fly your ship or really do anything in space. Pretty much everything about this game is pretty meh. I dunno I don't get it.... 6/10 and thats generous only because of the interesting dialogue choices.This game would be a 6/10 on a xbox 360-PS3 (and that's what it looks like the systems it was made on) ...Massively dissapointed considering the good reviews.

      I recommend it. The companions in this game are amazing, it's one of my favorite thing in the whole game. They're really acting like real persons, and they have role in the story, not just standing there like nothing happened. When I'm talking to someone, they join the conversation, share their opinion about things they hear, and they have their own special attacks. You're able to customize them, give them weapons, armor. They're learning new skills. Plus they all have their own quests (and sometimes they're trying to hide something they didn't want to share with you about these quests).
      The quests are really good, and not just the side quests, the main story is really good too. (I m not finished yet, doing side quests mostly, to increase my skills)

      Open worlds are rarely done justice. And everytime the bar is raised with them, it makes the open world games that came before feel like a chore to play. I think games like this and Metro Exodus prove that there is a happy medium where you've got the choice to roam but without being open for the sake of it and losing out on that tight cinematic nature.

    Back here in 2022. Playing this on a Series X now with auto-HDR, a silky smooth framerate, and far faster load times, the game suddenly feels even more enjoyable to play than it did three years ago. I've finally picked up the DLC's and am excited to try some wild builds and mad quest routes. Crazy to think that this is still one of the only RPG's of its kind to release in the last five years, and with Starfield still a ways off, it seems like a great time to give it another shot.
