it's good. like a solid 8/10. highly rated on steam (86%). recommended by 90% of critics. I'm thinking it might just be a surprise gem
Looks gay and retarded like OP
Were things this desperate when the first Outer Worlds came out?
>buy Premium Edition>game immediately insults you for itBased or cringe?
>>724125083How long? I just dont get these US high effort 25 hour games. Im not spending 70 on a 25 hour run, and im a bored retired millionaire.I liked the first one but it was just too short.
>game released>dead thread
>>724126269currently it's only available if you preorder it at an insanely jacked up pricenot sure what OP is expecting 2bqhwu
>>724125398Thats actually kinda based
>>724126269Sequel to bad forgettable game flops, shocking.
>>724125398>We also tried to release this game at 80 dollars but we couldn't teehee XD
>>724125083Oh it’s out? Man, first one made me lose interest hard by the time I got to the planet with the alcoholic black lady with the minigun. Something about the writing changed from the starting planet that everything felt off. Apparently the writers did change midway, which is why Parvarti’s story suddenly became about lesbian dating.
>>724127359And I always say this: I played it through GamePass and I still feel like I wasted money on it.
I’m curious if the perks are actually varied and unique this time in the first game it was literally just stat boosts or companion perk number 7
>>724126269It isn'tThe game will be released in 4 days
Does Outer Worlds 1 even have a story or is it all parody? I don't want to play an older janky game before this one.
>>724127682Gayniggers from Outer Space
>>724125083Isn’t this the same devs as new Vegas? And that game was a fucking disaster. Not trying this horseshit
those games live and die by the companionsand they all suck ass, the first game at least had the robot
>>724125398I will now play OW2. The comedy is on point.
>>724126269>release sequel for the most perfectly mediocre game in human history>try to charge 80$ for it, backpedal on it when people shit on you>(jokingly) taunt people about not being able to fuck companions when you show off one of the most underwhelming and uninteresting lineups in the history of rpgsThis game was stillborn. You know you fucked up when fucking Starfield of all things has better companions.
>>724127682Yeah it has a story What kind of retarded question is this?
>>724128124At least I can fuck my companions in starfield
>>724127952It quickly becomes annoying. It tries way too hard to be funny.Also the gameplay isn't that great. As a shooter is mediocre. Everything is mediocre. It's all there, but mediocre.And the game is super woke.
>>724125307No Microsoft wasn’t axing all there studios then.
>>724127682rick and morty story
I don't really understand where all these terrible writers have come from or why all games are like this now.Just mediocre games with abysmal writing, storylines and characters.
>>724128626what else are women in the industry supposed to do ?
>>724125398I'm not interested in playing this game right now, but this is funny and another one I saw someone point out is that if you skip all the dialogue, you get offered a flaw that gives you a XP bonus but you have extremely little time to make your text decisions or it picks randomly for you.
>>724128708rim my asshole
>>724128626Because the industry is extremely nepotistic and full of lame millennial women. And in this case the problem is compounded further because Obsidian is now owned by Microsoft, where talent goes to die.
>>724128626>Just mediocre games with abysmal writing, storylines and characters.It's not just games. Movies and streaming are exactly the same.Has to be on purpose.
>>724128626It’s been like this for a while. Look at new Vegas.
>>724125083Yeah, eight to ten seconds is all anyone can stomach of this garbage.
This guy (Leonard Boyarsky) was the art director for Fallout 1&2, Arcanum, and Vampire Masquerade. For some reason, after vampire, he stopped being art director, and only help Tim Gayn with game director on the first outer worlds. What's his fucking problem?
I read some anons saying that you cannot make a good looking character, but I managed to make one who looks like me, and I think I am rather good looking.
>>724128797People didn't take the writer's strike seriously.
>>724128875incel with a german accent look
I'm truly getting tired of the girlboss bullshit, women are allowed to be competent but its considered rare, making every character of interest I meet happen to be female is just absurd and retarded, there's even a woman with dyke rosary armory.
>>724128887The strike was these hacks trying to prevent being replaced by AI.
>>724128867First off, "Tim Gayn" was a part of all those games too, to a bigger extent in some than others.Secondly, the loading screens, concept art and overall infrastructure and such are easily the highlight of the first game, so it very much felt like Boyarsky's influence was alive and well trying to carry the game the best it could.Ultimately, Outer Worlds 1 and 2 aren't bad games because of their leads. They're bad games because Obsidian fell for the litfic womeme writer meme around a decade and a half ago, thinking that it would boost their supposed strength. Instead, it did the opposite and ruined the one big advantage they had.Ironically, I played Avowed and enjoyed it a decent amount, and the worst part about that game IS the writing (and the character designs). We now live in a different timeline where Obsidian makes competently designed games with writing that is indistinguishable from Bethesda.
>>724129032>I'm truly getting tired of the girlboss bullshitYou get girlboss stuff in the first 10 seconds. Then loads more.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bgrgg95JU0Ikek
>>724129141The first fucking words out of the game is girlboss bro, legit, its maddening.
>>724129121>indistinguishishable from bethesda>static environments85 IQ brown hands typed this.
>>724129373Not him but he said >with writing that is indistinguishable from BethesdaHe made no mention of environments.
>>724128982I am hispanic, actually
>>724125083Thanks OPI didn't know the game had an early release for paypiggiesGonna pirate it now
>>724129459>with writing that is indistinguishable from BethesdaThe writing is better than Starfield or Vanguard. Still blue-haired cringe though. Just higher quality cringe.
>>724129530>The writing is better than StarfieldNo, and I'm not saying Starfield was good either.
>>724128982>German accentNot just German accent, that online pan-European accent where they sound like they have a nose full of snot, and they speak extremely heavily from the upper back of their throat, right around the tonsils.Dunno where it's from, but it's the bane of my fucking existence.
I'm so very tired of the lets stick polygons with absolute bare minimum path finding and character intelligence so that it is glaring obvious to the point where the player might as well be able to directly read the source code of the game being directly exposed from how retardeded simple it is and then stuff it full of randomly generated loot pools in way too colorful grassy fields. You people are literally just making the same fucking videogame but with slightly different aesthetic and script and then trying to sell it to me like it is a new fucking game. It is not a new fucking game, it is is still the same fucking game and this is precisely why I pirate this shit because my hobby is a fucking dead joke where nobody can innovate, OH FUCKING BOY BUT I FOUND A GUN THAT HAS +10% CRIT CHANCE, OH MY HEAVENSI fucking hate videogames.
>>724129121>First off, "Tim Gayn" was a part of all those games too, to a bigger extent in some than others.Boyarsky was art director for Fallout, arcanum, and so on. He was really good at it, and you can tell by the blend of aesthetics used in fallout. When tim gayn has more control of this, it really starts to show, and it's also post-burnout for both tim gayn and boyarsky. It doesn't hit the same, and that's not because it's first person. All of the gay woke stuff and capitalism bad stuff makes it worse.
>size 84 GBNot even worth pirating. I haven't even looked at the system requirements but I bet my rtx 2060 is not enough. Modern gaming is a joke.
I'm playing on hard and the enemies are dumb bullet sponges that kill you in two hits you can't even avoid. Hit feedback is terrible.
>>724129651I would actually tolerate this girlboss bullshit too if the games actually had the necesassary depth to to them to actually play like a modern videogame, How the fuck is it I can pick up a cup off a table in deus ex 1 in the like such a long time ago but somehow the art of picking up cups on tables is just completely lost and nobody cares. They gutted and broke the fucking AI in the oblivion remake and john mc burgers wouldn't travel across the map for skooma anymore, ruined game, ruined hobby, utterly ruined hobby, I am so upset and I pirated this shit.
>>724129769>AMD RX 5700 / Nvidia GTX 1070 / Intel Arc A580
Every other female character looks like this lol.>>724129797>I would actually tolerate this girlboss bullshit too if the games actually had the necesassary depth to to themIt's just girlbosses for the sake of punching men.
>>724129769it runs on the steam deck at 30 fps
>>724125083I'm spoiled by Baldur's Gate (2) and Skyrim and Starfield and Witcher 3, etc, and just not interested in these big open world RPGs unless there's romanceable companions and/or I can mod sex and harems and stuff into them. Playing as a genderless, sexless blob in my open world RPG escapism just isn't immersive. Even so, I may have been able to forgive that if the world was interesting enough, but then they showed the companions video. If I wanted to be surrounded by brown people in a dystopian "diversity" society I wouldn't have moved 500 miles way from the nearest Democrat-run city.
Oh god, make it stop.
>>724130332i scrolled through cohhs video of him playing the game. every character dictating shit to you was female, every bad person was a man
>>724130436it's obviously a franchise designed by and for matriarchal communists (jews) to circlejerk each other off with.
>>724130436>every character dictating shit to you was female, every bad person was a manAnd every neutral NPC is brown. It's to tiresome.The male employee was of course scrubbing the toilet.
First tranny spotted.The controls are a bit clunky btw.
>>724130262I just want simulators that try to autistically simulate everything right down to the most absurd level of autism you can imagine like as if breathing is actually a challenge but in a videogame and then making an actual videogame around those systems. They're called immersive sims and they're the only game I want to play, please stop making this shit and start making immersive sims or I'm just gonna blow my brains out on at a elementary school or something for maximum trauama as a final fuck you to this shit tier species called humanity. I am so fucking tired of people making shit ass games I can't immerse myself or escape in because they aren't imm sim enough to pretend its real life. I swear to god if there isn't a breathing mechanic I will rape your grandmother.
>>724125083buy an ad fag
>>724128626They hire their friends who hire their friends. Nobody gets jobs through merit anymore.
>>724130864anyone left in california with any merit is trying to greedmaxx via AI right now either way. none of them are going to codemonkey for some shitty lgbtqp gaymes studio owned by the literal largest globohomo company on the planet.
wait is this pirate able now?
>>724125083it's 3/10 like the first one.I was promised open world rpg game instead i got instances, with scripted event that happen without an prior knowledge and dialogue for exploring.I got no buildings.
So many girlbosses...>>724131240>it's 3/10 like the first one.It's very much like the first one. Actually worse, since now you know how 3/10 it's going to be.
>>724131152I obtained my copy from here, it downloaded in about 5 minuteshttps://akirabox.to/ex5z2k8bBGKq/file
>>724125083>it's good. like a solid 8/10. highly rated on steam (86%). recommended by 90% of critics. I'm thinking it might just be a surprise gemyou fucking shills aren't even remotely trying holy fuck kill yourself
I mean the first game got tons of good reviews too, then you play it and it's boring as sin after the tutorial planet.I'll wait till this one's $10 on sale too, or they release a "complete" edition.
>>724132459>I mean the first game got tons of good reviews too, then you play it and it's boring as sin after the tutorial planet.the second game is exactly the same. i've played for 3-4 hours now and it's so boring.the first game is actually better.
>>724125083if they have to pay retards like you to make these threads is because is shit.
There's something wrong with the camera, it's worse than mouse smoothing, I'm immediately getting motion sickness. It's like huge input lag desynchronizing the in game movement from my actual inputs but my frame rate is decent so it's none of the obvious problems.
>>724131468yeah i scrolled through cohhs playing of it for hours and every character he was speaking to was a girl boss , the baddies were all men
>>724133910did you try no motion blur or low motion blur?
>>724134770>the baddies were all menThey aren't even. All the top baddies are girlbosses. They have male lackeys to shove around of course and DEI lackies to also shove the men around. All the companions are brown. 80% of the NPCs are brown. None of the characters so far are likeable or memorable.Pair that with boring fetch quests, mediocre gunplay and difficulty settings that simply turn enemies into dumb sponges and you have a perfectly boring game.It's better than Avowed or Veilguard, but still boring. I actually was less bored with Veilguard, despite it's flaws.
>>724135108Avowed was a good game though with actual exploration how is it better than Avowed exactly?
>>724125083Purely organic thread.
>>724135337Similar exploration, but the world isn't that sterile and the dialogs are better.If you liked Avowed, you will like OW2.I find it boring and the woke stuff is so in your face, it's tiresome.
Watched a playthrough, clicked randomly on the video. All the NPCs you interacted were strong DEI women with colored dyke haircuts. It looks like they tripled down on woke slop for this sequel. And I'm okay with it!Obsidian devs get to express their ideologies on their games... and I get to not spend a single dollarino on it and tell my friends it's shit, win-win if you ask me
>>724134776Yeah, I figured out the FOV even maxed at 135 is broken and I had to download a mod to set it to the real value of 100 which is about 30% further out than what the game allows.
>>724129373>writing that is indistinguishable from Bethesda>WATBOUT MUH STATIC ENVIRONEMNTS???!! HUH? HUH?retardalso having physics in a game that serves no gameplay purpose is not gamedesignit's throwing shit at the wall and hoping it sticks
>>724129937She looks like she would be great at SPH
>>724129680>art director>When tim cayn has more control of thisTim Cain was never art directing anything, he is also very competent at what he does doYou just sound like you are salty a lefty gay liberal PhD was one of the key creative leads that brought the world one of the most influential games of all time and probably the best CRPG ever
>>724136784I've played for a while and the game world really does feel quite static. Doesn't help that the characters are artificial DEI stand-ins. It all feels so fake.The dialogs are better, but it's way too much talking and reading. Also they promised consequences, but you don't feel the consequences.
Sorry but cp2077 already takes the '' enriched woke future fps rpg'' slot of my library. Make a different game next time
First game was dull as ditchwater. Fell for the 'from the makers of New Vegas' hype bullshit and played it through gamepass and was legtimately insulted by how impossibly bland the game was.It was nothing. It was like an anti-game it just sort of existed there was nothing remarkable to say at all about any of it, besides the obvious woke politics. It was as if an AI set out to design the most uninspired 'rpg' possible. It had no identity, no charm, nothing about it was engaging or interesting. I cant express just how boring it was. I didn't even remember I played it until I saw this thread.I imagine they've done precisely nothing to improve on that. I expect this game is exactly as insipid as the first; like a video game made by people who have never played a video game and only have some vague description of what a video game is and their agenda pushing checklist to work from.I know I'm not wrong these unimaginative, uncreative fucking empty soul devs can't create anything else.
>>724125398>hold Esc to rejectGreat "RPG" where choice matter (unless you don't want them to matter)
looks diverse and gay. liberals in space
can you still kill everyone?
>>724127865No. It wasn't until interest in outer worlds 1 collapsed that MS got like this. The marketing for avowed, Indy and song of the south or whatever that SBI game was that it got bad. >>724128626You remember late blizzard and metoo? They forced everyone else out of the industry, and added loads and LOADS of contrators. It's why the art directof from this company's B team can say absolutly riddiculous racist shit that really should get them sued, fuck up the art design of the game, and he's still at the complanyMeanwhile, some of the actually talented people like say Avelone are effectively banned from AAA. >>724125398Sensible chuckle. I'll give that one to them.
>>724129121It's too bad that I don't buy a game based on art direction and concept. And the vibe is definitely thrown off by the commies.
>>724129141>>724129032>>724129185Hold up. We need a scale here. Is it GOT lesbians bad? GOY bad? Veilguard Taash bad where the very concept of woman gets barved on?
>>724129797>wouldn't travel across the map for skooma anymoreLOL. What kind of skooma head wouldn't even do THAT? What an embarrasment.
>>724130332>>724129937>>724130557>>724130530>>724130436Eh, Is it worse than Starfield?
>>724125307It came out a year after Fallout 76 and people were desperate for something to fill the Bethesda void
>>724130642Hmm. I want a Dwarf Fortress immersive sim. Let me know if you see your game and I'll let you know if I see mine.
>>724132408I suspect MS might have fired some of their english speaking shills after the last purge
>>724125083>let's talk about it>regurgitates review scoresok mr. marketer
>>724135482Comparable combat?
I just hope the combat is betterI mostly just mowed down everything with my heavy weapons in heavy armorThere was zero reason to use anything else
>>724138063Of course it is, it was always worse than Starfield. Starfield's only real problems are the main quest and people's lack of understanding how to play the game
>>724138634>Starfield's only real problems are the main quest
>>724125083Would you say its a return to form mr. marketer? I dont feel like even pirating it
>>7241250837k people bought this sack of shit for $100
>>724125083Huh? Is this shit out?>Advanced Accesslmao, who the fuck actually pays for that shit?
whats the best class gear build in the first
>>724138683Yeah, and the second thing I said. People were running around empty wastelands expecting to be entertained instead of fast traveling between custom made locations. Of course it's boring to run around an empty wasteland. That's not how you play the game
>>724138858>who the fuck actually pays for that shit?same people who buy games on launch instead of waiting for a sale.
>>724131468>that jawIt's MA'AM
Is it on uncle Phil's dollar store?
its already cracked btw for anyone interested
>>724126269there has been like a dozen of threads today and this is the first one that passes the 50 replies. this game is so fucking dead not even the haters care.
>>724125398>flaws were so useless in the first game they had to do this shit to make one worth taking
Yoinked it from torrents, let's see how fun and interesting it is
>>724128626Brainlets are gonna be trying to be giving you an answer that fits all scenarios, and I can't speak for a lot of the other companies, but I can speak for Obsidian.In the case of Obsidian, they lookaed at the "Obsidian is great for their writing" lesson and took the completely wrong conclusions from it, hiring as many somewhat successful litfic fantasy women writers with as much accredited literary degrees as possible, preferably with at least one published fantasy novel somewhere.I don't even think these women are all incompetent or anything. Some of them can deliver at times in the most objective terms. But there's so many of them and they are in charge of so much of the content of the game, that it resulted in a complete shift of the soul of the company, and obviously one that isn't even close to being as resonant to people like you and me. What does it matter that Tim Cain and Leonard Boyarsky are leading a game if below them it's all womeme writers and soiboi millennials?
>>724125398The shit devs do when they don't want to make money because MS has infinite funding
>>724135482>If you liked Avowed, you will like OW2.I liked Avowed but have no intention of playing this. Mainly because I'm autistic and I'd have to force myself to finish OW1 first.
>>724135482>Similar explorationIn what way? I don't think you understand how fun Avowed actually was when exploring and fighting. This just looks like your generic Fallout 3 sloppa in terms of exploration and combat
>>724128626>nowkek
Can you kil eveyrone again? If so I will kill everyone that annoys me and everyone that is brown
>>724143043Yeah, I am having doubts that Outer Worlds 2 has exploration as good as Avowed's. The combat being as good I could see. They have some fun wacky weapons in the trailers.
This bitch may be cringe. But ugly? Get real. You're gay if you wouldn't fuck this senseless.
>>724143145you can, yeah
>>724143145>>724143453Apparently you can't kill people in the tutorial nor companions this time around. Cringe if true.
i plan to pirate it, does anyone know if it supports low int characters like the first one?i really liked that you can get a special retard ending.
I'm playing the game right nowHaving a blast so far
>>724125083Not even worth pirating. Don't buy an ad, buy rope instead.
>>724125083So is it better than the first one? I tried to play the first game 3 times and dropped because I just couldn't take the game seriously and the jokes weren't funny.
After the dumpster fire that was Avowed? No thanks
>>724128626>what's nepotism>what's blackmirror children>what's digital daycare-botfarmsOy vey. Yes, how coule this happen? Why are terminally domesticated "people" who lack life experience bad at writing? It's a mystery.

>>724125083Shant be giving M$ any money for any reason whatsoever.
>>724125083this is a return to form for the outer worlds series. so far it seems like the biggest game in the series ever
>>724125083it's kino unironically. can't wait to play it any day today
From what I’ve played so far it’s pretty much impossible to be good at everything. You have to pick a lane and stick with it
Kino of the highest order that filtered /v/Won't even pirate it though, gonna give it the ol' bloodlines 2 treatment.
i didnt hate the first one luke others here do. just painfully mediocre and very onrails
if nothing else at least there's a low int playthroughI can appreciate that
>>724125083It's a solid game, like the 1st one. Unfortunately while I could overlook how "lefty" the first one was, I can't overlook it now as they upped the dose of that to unbearable.
>>724125083Depends. Is it filled with purple haired tumblerinas and nigger yasqueens again?
>>724128626Rampant dei, liberalism and feminist nepotism. These companies have so much money from ngos, and jewish backers to push statewide propaganda through media, that it doesn't matter that's its all actual slop.
>>724125083It's modern audience slop. At least the 1st one has a couple white male companions. This one has 0. This game looks like it was made for dykes, niggers, shitskins, and troons.
>>724149548errmm it's actually a good game made for real gamers. but you don't even play games so I can see why you would think it's not for you
>>724149841ermmm, I'm going to check it out by pirating it. I just don't want any nigger troons (like you) at obsidian/microsoft to get my money
should gay developpers be allowed to make games ?
>>724125083the torrent just finished. im excited about to press play
>>724150404only if they're good games like The Outer Worlds 2
>>724150489sorry bro you waste 110gb of internet bandwidth and hard drive cycle
>>724150529you convinced me anon, i'm going to pirate it
>>724150579>110gbwhat? its like 77GB
>>724150604have fun anon
>>724127823That movie is kino, if Outer Worlds was like that it would actually be good.

>>724125083Is it still loaded to the gills with redditor-style>capitalism, amirite guys?Humor?I barely left the space ship before I dropped the first one because of all of the corny """relatable""" jokes/dialogue.
Why are modern games like this
>>724152056UE5
>>724152056>australian gamers
>its all WOMENS fault!t. angry men since the beginning of time
This is the only game I've looked forward to all year. RPGs are dead but at least some are still trying and the first game was a good RPG experience with all the dialogue options, multiple endings and stuff. It didn't have crazy depth but it was good.
>>724152260beat me to it by ONE second
>>724125083>7k peakThey are fucked.
lol the dumb trait options are funny
I just hope the writing is better than the first game. The first was so fucking pretentious I wanted to punch everyone involved in its creation.
>>724152701
>>724152770of course it doesn't kill it
>>724152770yeah anon, that's sooo funny, have all my reddit gold!also, goddamn even the cretures are female.
>>724152770broken clock is right twice a day, they always say
dude corporations are le bad and I am le gaye and brown
>>724125083Kinda unrelated, but why did the New Vegas community turn their back on JSawyer's mod? The Viva New Vegas page is full of alternatives nowadays and they criticize the mod as if they just hated the creator. Last time I checked it was a mod called Vigor or some dumb shit like that. The worst part is that it breaks other mods that use JSawyer's patches, but they still recommend those alternatives for some reason.
>>724125083Are you the same faggot that said VTMB2 was going to be kino?
I wouldn't pirate this trash on my neighbor's wifi.
>>724137814>It's why the art directof from this company's B team can say absolutly riddiculous racist shit that really should get them sued, fuck up the art design of the game, and he's still at the complanyWho? What did he say?

I remember the first game had a lot of hype behind it (outside of here, and mostly reactionary to Rick & Heckin Morty Guy), and then after it released, no one talked about it. Like, outside of the mandatory reviews, the internet just forgot about the game. People played it and found that their first 3D RPG with looting, persuasion, combat, companions, and crafting was a fucking 6/10 for 60 goddamn dollars. I got a press copy after the fact, and it was still a waste of time. I played about 4 or 6 hours through the first level (the best in the game) and was like "it's okay," and then it immediately got worse, and I stopped shortly after. Might try the DLC since I heard it's better, but the only people praising it would also be subjecting themselves to that shitty game and think it was "good enough" to warrant time investment. Kinda like how the only reason Suicide Squad had positive scores on launch week (Steam) - the only people who would rate it positively are the people brain-dead enough to buy it despite the big warning signs. So, of course, it was an echo chamber for a few thousand people.
>>724153343*First new, 3D Western RPG in years.
>>724143043Fallout 3 has amazing atmosphere and kino exploration, don't ever compare it to tranny garbage like avowed you subhuman nigger
>>724136367Based
Do companions in 2 still make you a master at every skill when you have them in the party?
I can't wait for this game selling 5M copies in the first week and /v/ seething.
>>724128741>game is a meta-letter to fansIntriguing. How novel is this approach?
>>724153769avowed is a much better game than fallout 3 mechanically and the story is mid but at least it doesn't have the retarded logic and consistency issues the fallout 3 story had
>>724153030Vtmb2 IS kino, this woke dogshit is not thoughever.
>>724129937>>724130332>>724130604>>724131468It's actually quite the accomplishment to make this many characters look this bad.Bravo.
>>724153942no, you are forced to specialize in 2. you can't be a jack of all trades anymore
>>724125083its full of brown people doing marvel quips, BG3 players would love it if only they could handle real time games
>>724154030Its already out for the premium edition. Nobody is particularly interested, not even people who enjoy games failing. Nobody expects this to anything but mid, even the company that makes it has said int he past their policy is to make average games that will recoup the cost but not be mindblowing success
>>724125083I don't believe anyone actually played this. why would anyone play this?
>>724130642>you trip the alarm because you're in a cold environment and you didn't wear a mask or a rebreather/breathing maskHonestly sounds kind of kino. This would require creativity however the industry is bankrupt in that regard.
>>724154473there's lots of seethe on the steam forums about the brown companions
>>724154589I want a white friend
>>724154473>the company that makes it has said int he past their policy is to make average games that will recoup the cost but not be mindblowing success>w-we weren't trying to make a good game to begin with that means we succeeded!
>>724143331>game made by women>they can't even get the makeup rightI just can't anymore
>>724154867they make good games but good games like Outer Worlds don't always sell as well when compared to mainstream slop
>>724154465Just say that you were too retarded to figure out a turn based game, don't jump through mental hoops to try and make "real time games" seem challenging lmaoWhat a faggot
>>724148979Every playthrough is a low INT playthrough
>>724154340no and no
>>724155215Cyberpunk really was on another level in regards to this
this faggot is making fun of me
The only good games obsidian makes anymore are the grounded games.
>>724156205What is the difficulty of this game like? The first one was a joke even on the hardest setting.
>>724156205>how dare you pick mid difficulty in my mid game>>724156195Yeah but it's like they gave her intentional eye bags makeup. Probably landwhales who think they deserve a pro footballer husband or trans. Or both.

>>724125083Did those same critics shat on the first one? If they didn't, then our tastes don't match and I'm not interested in their opinions.
>>724127106>We also tried to release this game at 80 dollars but we couldn't teehee XDThe premium edition is over $80 and most likely the same price it would have been if the base game was $80 though, so they have got away with it lol
>>724155342>good games like Outer Worlds
>>724155215looks like a girl I was interested in in college, just with shorter hair lmao
>>724155215why is that a surprise? women can't get their makeup right irl, why would they be able to do it in a game?
Is there more to the writing than wacky CAPITALISM BAD? Is it actually fucking interesting?
>>724126269The Outer Worlds is unique in that it generates levels of ambivalence previously unseen.If it was a color it would be gray.There’s some greater magic going on here with it being an “anti-capitalist” game while proposing no alternative to capitalism whatsoever. Produced by Americans, it is incapable of taking a true anti-cap stance, and thus does nothing but meekly tread water.
>>724158118>Is it actually fucking interesting?gee what do you think, retard?
>>724158118I don't know about Outer Wilds 2, but I played the first Outer Wilds and it had good gunplay. However, the variety of guns is very limited, and at 1/3rd of the game, you get the same guns as v2 with slightly better stats.
>>724143145they remove it since avowed.
>>724158180The whole colony was doomed from the start and no system of governance could have changed anything when everyone at all levels of society was an IQ 70 dalit. It wasn't even a depiction of capitalism, it was space India filled with jeets who lived off constantly scamming each other and trying to get ahead in life by cheating and stealing.
>>724158487Ain’t that the same thing though? A veneer of anti-capitalism / “capitalism bad” while the in-world truth of the matter is that everyone is too retarded to make capitalism work. The devs couldn’t make a proper argument against capitalism because they were either incapable of constructing one or because the divine mandate of the American spirit prevented them from doing so.Curious now if the sequel tries to pull the same shit. Are there smart characters in the new one?
>>724158487>constantly scamming each other and trying to get ahead in life by cheating and stealingIn other words, capitalism.
the scaling on very hard is hilarious. i've got ~%1300 sneak damage multiplier and i can't kill a guard with a rifle headshot
>>724158118>Is it actually fucking interestingThe developers are so fucking retarded/commie that they think people can starve to death while looking in perfect shape.They seriously think that 'starvation' is some weird magic that kills people unseen in capitalist societies.
oh lord boss fights with dialogue trees that always end in a fight we're back to pre-patch human revolution
>>724158841The textbook capitalism we used to know in the 20th century America was a bit more sophisticated than this. It's the west than went full turd world now, not shitholes being textbook examples of capitalism.>>724159110It's not gulag tier starvation. It was high calorie malnutrition. Perfectly adequate calorie and protein intake coupled with multiple vitamin deficiencies. There's a pediatrician who wrote a whole book about treating British and American children with that kind of malnutrition. They looked alright at first glance, which is why modern medicine is completely dismissive of it.

played for 5 hours. Its actually not that bad and quite good. Love there are multiple ways of finishing questsdont like how rubbery and blocky the world is though. strange art choice. i think it is because they dont have a big budget. still enjoying it though. thanks iggames
>>724136784it serves the purpose of immersion you fucking nigger monkey.
>>724148979What the fuck? I should have checked the negative traits when I made my character.
>>724155835kek
Is there multiple outcomes to the beginning? I noticed in the trailers the funny black token man they start you with doesn't always have burn scars, was my entire crew dying the only outcome possible?
>>724158118I don't think it's capitalism = bad, it's unchecked capitalism. Basically if Rockefeller never face the sherman antitrust act of 1890. There's a lot of capitalism = bad propaganda out there, but I don't think this is it. Lefties and retards will probably think it is capitalism bad tho.
>>724160541it's a pretty funny touch that the civilian protectorate areas have no stealing penalty
Is it fun
>product received for free>recommended
>>724161650she's right you know
>>724161454its okay, but I'm still on the first planet so it could just be frontloaded all over again.
>>724153343Obsidian has unironically spent like a decade and a half making games that score in the low 8s that everyone instantly forgets in a matter of weeks. It's almost impressive in a way. Grounded might be the only thing that had any staying power culturally
is there any reason to try it if I thought OW1 was a boring piece of shit and gave up in a few hours
>>724125083is it me or are most game not developed with the intention of making them instant classics? like did the devs and testers played the alpha during game development and thought: >yep this gonna be up there along with Resident Evil, Ocarina of Time, Dark Souls, Doom, Deus Ex, System Shock, Shadow of the Colossus, Chrono Trigger...etc..and if they didn't think that then why bother make the game at all?
>>724166149Its just game factories now, they're making a product. Like some cars are not anything special, they are just an average car. The problem with this game is that they are charging a premium price for an average product.
>>724128626The real writers are focusing on bigger stuff.Ephesians 6:12 KJVFor we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
>>724152986something about remaking it over and over for whatever fotm mod standard at the timeI've probably used a different jsawyer fork every playthrough and i couldn't tell you the differences
the aesthetics are disgusting in this gameit's not worth playing
>>724153343>>724153343>no one talked about it. Like, outside of the mandatory reviews, the internet just forgot about the game.your entire worldview of "the internet" is a very small slice of 4chan you disgusting creep
>It's creepy to not hear about a mediocre game noone remembers
What is with NPCs repeating their conversations like they've never spoken with you before? >Sabotage the Town>Several NPCs repeat their dialogue like we never spoke>Fancy top hat guy repeats the entire firing his companion cutscene again
I'm still not far but I'm finding this dumb dialogues pretty amusing desuI might restart and actually do a dumb playthrough since I've been playing it straight
>>724127359Agreed but that was also the end. I think it was that planet than the final mission back in capital city.
>Playing Stealth>Crouching everywhere>Do you wanna take flaw "Make an audible sound that alerts NPCs when you crouch! You'll crouch 50% faster though"MAN WHAT A TOUGH DECISION.
>>724168889Zoomer writing
>>724166816didnt read
Murzakanov makes light work of Jiri
>>724145167Worse than a shill - an npc. It's just repeating pre-approved soundbites. This fag was probably repearing journo key words and talking about how games make you FEEL like xyz a few years ago and about RETURNS TO FORM last year.
I hope anybody playing this right now pirated it and didn't actually pay for early access
I'm old man. I tried playing this with a cracked copy and I could feel myself getting nauseous 30 minutes in even after turning off motion blur and all that jazz.
>>724169837*ehem*
>>724169924Can you give me a hundred bucks too?
>>724125083The 1st game was garbage primarly becuase gameplay system design and terrible level/world design. The "woke" shit was just the cherry on top. The 2nd game looks like it's a "more of the same" sequel you only buy if you enjoyed the 1st. Which nobody with taste did.
>>724169971can you give me a game too?
>>724170153I didn't even get far enough to experience either. After like three npc's repeated corpo slogans at me like I was stuck in the least funny episode of Futurama, I noped out and stopped playing at the 30 minute mark
>UE5 again>check out nexus>multiple custom config files that quadruple performance>authors say that there's stuff configs can't fix, game urgently needs patches>go to rutracker>first page of comments calls out the urinal engine>runs like shit even on 9800x3D and 5080>people are waiting for full release after paypiggies tested the early access demo
I cannot wait for microsoft to close this studio once and for all
>>724125083>gay shit everybody's brownwho cares you picked your audience now live with it
is there any woke sjwshit in the game????
>>724175714All the characters are ugly.
>>724175714>sjwthis is 2025, unc.
Honestly after running around the vomit colored planet and getting girlbossed around I am now just wanting to play starfield which I am sure I will also just drop again immediately. Really sucks there isn't just one good modern space game out there. Mass effect was great for its day but I just don't fucking care about any of these modern space games, I'm tired of shooting lizards and drones and then knowing my only reward for playing this shit ass game to be some gun or armor or so. Like man, I just don't care to run around fields of rocks and grass in videogames dudes. I am 30+ if I want to see a tree I can just go outside, trees and rocks are effectively like doing nothing at all in terms of assets in my opinion because there's zero object of interest in the dirt of static games. My only concession to get something that's almost there is scam citizen but then that game is just a glorified prototype with nothing to do in it. Im so bored bros, the vampires game was so ass too and I just don't care about silk song because I have metroidvania fatigue and already beat nine sols this year. What the fuck do I even play as an old fag who just wants a fucking space adventure with fucking ship interiors and mostly indoor environments.
The narrative feels like it has no drive. I just infiltrated the automated robot place as the alternative to working for that one guy who wanted me to find info on Mental Refreshment and everything feels so aimless and lifeless. I don't know who any of these people are and I don't care. I've got the Dumb trait but the Dumb dialogue seems to get the same results as the normal dialogue and I was hoping for a more unique playthrough. Like, the NPCs might say a line or two in response but then the conversation is immediately rerailed onto the main path and the talk's ending is the same. These one-off lines feel like token appeasement.
>>724175714lmao it's the only shit there is
