pls seed dodi repack thank you very much sirs
I didn't bother to pirate Awoved. Unless steam reviews actually say It's good, I won't bother with this one either.
>>724162501apparently its another ue5 mess
>>724161830I did pirate it. Ama
I don't even want to pirate this turd. There's enough good games around.
>>724162628Best build? Hows the performance?
I'm not trans sorry I don't care about obsiditroonslop
>>724161708Not a troonNot brownNot blackNot a commieNot gonna play it.
>>724162683>Best build?Dunno. I got barely past the intro because the game wouldn't save and I lost two hours of playtime when I eventually died at one point. I then had to do some researching and found the solution:You need to manually create a folder named 'TheOuterWorlds2' in saved games.>Hows the performance?Shit. Your average "upscaling required for a decent framerate". I've got a 6900xt btw
I can't save on the tenoke version
Pirates always win
>>724163268See >>724163041
>>724163041The one under Documents/saved games? Doesn't work for me
>>724163495C:\Users\your pc name\Saved Games\TheOuterWorlds2
>>724163495No, in your user folder. The one above documents/pictures/downloads/etc
>>724163756>>724163619thanks guys
>reach the open world section of the game>performance goes to shit and you lose half your fps>first 2 hours of the game happen in a very small linear zone Kikery of the highest order
is story good?cute chicks?cool weapons?
>>724161708>TENOKEFor me it's Insane Ramzes
>>724161708Just watch it if you can endure it. It's 20 hours.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m0us5pOz9aU
>>724164675Rise of the Ronin did the same thing. FPS goes to 0 in towns but you only get to one 2 hours into the game
>>724164970steam should start doing something about this
>>724163041Thanks am installing we'll see how my 5080 7800x3d handles it then
>>724163041>You need to manually create a folder named 'TheOuterWorlds2' in saved games.Lmao what the fuck
>>724162628How MYSTERY MEAT are the characters?
>>724163756>>724163619>>724163041cheers
>>724166490I think you can guess the answer
>>724161708Who gives a FUCK.WHERE THE TURN BASED UPDATE TO POE OBSINIGGERS?
Okay my cpu is going HAYWIRE
>>724166490take a look anon
>>724167305>badly optimized open world game from nu obsidianShow temps.
The FIRST intro cutscene a strong woman slaps a guyGood lord>>724167490Hold up
>>724167490Fixed itself by turning shit down from ultraHilarious faces.......
>>724167402the goggles on the creature on the left look completely idiotic lmao who the fuck comes up with this stuff?
>>724167490>Show temps.This shit is fucking up my hardware
>>724168342UNDERVOLT, NOW!
>>724169543I have that's the thingThis game looks pretty good but holy shit is it raping my poor cpu and gpu
>>724168342>>72416954363c isn't bad? What temps are you usually getting?
>>724167402where did it all go so wrong?
>>724164914>20 hours.but all the reviews said it was bad for the first 20 hours
>>724169631Usually its 55ish on other games at max at 4k
>>724161830
>>724169737Very odd. Wtf did Obsidian do.
>>724169805UE5 Slop, i have the same shit in the Jedi games
>>724168342>power limit 98kek for what purpose
>>724169963Oh shit, no idea lmaoMust've missclickedGame looks nice, needs FG to run well on high 4k good lordThe shooting at least feels a lot nicer than the first gameBut fuck me i would not buy this game for what 80`90? bucks
>>724169714I made it 20 minutes in, then I walked away in disgust. Maybe they were talking about the first 20 minutes then. Or maybe it's just complete shit.
>>724164912I'm too dumb to use the cracks so I'm stuck at 3mb/s on a torrent repack
The performance needs some heavy work>UE5The underlying game is fun, a lot more than the first gameJust needs to stop making my hardware work so hard
>>724170271I'm downloading the torrent so I'll see if I can stomach it. I completed the first game but it was utterly mediocre, like another anon said once you reach the blockaded planet with the woman with the minigun it all starts falling apart
>>724171773It's a lot more grounded imoStill whacky humor but it's toned toned a bit
>>724169792It's a sequel to a bad game, the anus of proof is on it not us. We can assume that it's bad if it can't prove otherwise via marketing
>>724172856Outer World was good though.
>>724172913was my go to joke on opposite day
>>724172913It was the most "meh" game I had ever played, and a terrible RPG (narrative wise). I can't take a story seriously that doesn't take itself seriously, and from what I've seen so far the sequel isn't much better in that regard. hence I quit playing for even though I'm barely out of the Intro. The world just doesn't pull me in and the talking feels like a chore
>>724173210So you didnt like Fallout
>>724171980that doesn't address the flat characters, pretty awful main story, pretty boring ass combat, lack of enemy and weapon variety and probably worst of all, the god awful world/map/level designhow they take a sci fi world and make it so boring is beyond me
>>724173374nu-Fallout at least works as a looter shooter time wasting game. Outer Worlds fails even at thatt. nta
>>724173381Fair enough it could've been a good enough 40 dollar game imoBut yeah.... well
its an improvement over the first game across the board minus performancebut its still not new vegas 2
>>724173589yeah...
>>724173846I'm just gonna play this and be glad i pirated it, while waiting for a good sci-fi open world game i guess
>>724173374Fallout has an interesting world and lore. I read every log - the Vaults are the highlight in every game. In Outer Worlds 2 I just click through them.The quests aren't just "muh promotion here, muh capitalism that". Sorry random npc, but heading through a monster infested path just so you can get a promotion doesn't motivate me.
>>724173935>a good sci-fi open world game I guessI'm a sucker for fps "rpgs" especiallyif they're scifi but starfield sucked and there's nothing besides this and cybepunk 2 to look forward to so I'll take it
>>724174117Yeah, i tried the first game couple hours ago but man it was so barrenSo far, at least, the 2nd game feels fun at the very least. I just want someone to make a good scifi fps rpg, guess that'll take a long time eh
is the intro different for different backgrounds
>>724174567No. But there are a lot of skill checks
>>724174805shame
Speech and probably Sneak is gonna be a staple OP build
>>724167402they even have Mystery Meat Gustave
it's pretty fun. scaling is terrible on very hard and makes stealth completely worthless but otherwise i'm enjoying it
>>724175835Same, i'm gonna search the internet for some config fixes.
performance is fucking wild
>>724173374A world can have silly billy things in it but still be "serious". TOW1 made no real attempt at worldbuilding and was just one long unfunny millennial joke.
>>724164675Steam often honors a refund anyway, 2 hours is just the period in which you don't need a reason.
Lol the game has New Vegas Style Radio stations
>>724176620I CAN SEE THAT LONE STAR FROM A THOUSAND LIGHTYEARS AWAY
>>724176651Honestly? This feels more NV in Space now, damn
>>724161708I was playing wow today and it seems like it's on early access on battle.net, it's one of those 100$ editions with 5 days early access.
Jesus christ almighty what the fuck is this, Forspoken?
>>724161708i hope this one actually gets mods
>>724161830its better than starfield at least
These character designs are consistently bad
>>724180021Christ...
>>724161708the writing in the first one was so bad i have no interest in a sequel
>>724179064>>724180021Is it just me or did the entire industry spontaneously forget how to design cool sci-fi armor in recent years?
Gaming journos are saying that the satire is too much. If even they are admiting to it, it seems that the situation is grim. The humour and the shitty attempts at satire in OW1 was the worst part of the game and ruined the main story.
I dunno what's going on. Im getting 80+ fps on the first planet at 1440p (high settings) with my 3080, only got one stutter so far too. I suspect frame gen is on but i can't find it anywhere in the settings.
>>724179743That's not much of a bar
>>724180021sick armor on that big black mama shiet
>>724161708the epitome of "not even if it was free".
The first one was phenomentally mediocre with what is probably the worst final sequence in any RPG I've ever played.
>>724180457It's the crisis of western culture.
>>724179743Lol no, and that isn't even praise of Starfield.
What's even the story, the first was you being the one non retard in a corporate shithole because you were part of some missing colonist group that were actually competent.
>>724180457>get hired to fill ESG/DEI checkbox instead of being good at job>not good at jobhuh...
>the mantis boss on the second planet tanked 1100 heavy rounds very hard is a meme
>>724181139>Lol no,lol yes
>kill every companion but the white womanoh yeah
>>724180457lack of talent, everyone who is talented in the field makes their money off patreon making outfit mods for gacha or some shit.
>>724181230Different colony and you're an earth agent meant to deal with their bullshit
>>724180793>frame gen on by default and you can't disable itI love 2025 gaming
>Literal first cutscene is a crybaby white male and his super competent female superior>The Earth Directorate is ripped straight out of Helldivers with them using shit like 'Justice' as swears>Everyone you meet that has a modicum of sense is brown or a womanThis ain't it chief.
>>724181668Ironically I feel like this applies to a lot of the jobs in the industry, you're better off on your own rather than accepting just ok pay, daily meeting bullshit, and zero job security
>>724180793see >>724164675
Games are so embarrassing these days. I refuse to even pirate this turd. UE5 devs should get shipped to re-education farms and eletrocuted until they learn to optimize their shit. Jesus Christ these people should be ashamed.
>>724169697>where did it all go so wrong?This but unironically. Seriosly, why?!
>>724172913“Todd Howard FEARS Outer Worlds!”
Anyone know if you can still do LOW INT build.That's the only reason I may give it a pirate.
Tainted Grail Fall of Avalon is both better and cheaper then this shit
>>724180021Cool space buns!
>>724182087my free game is better than your free game!
>>724182087did they fix Act 3?
>>724161708It's out for deluxe edition buyers and pirate chadsIt's actually not that bad of a game. Not worth the price they're asking for it, but it's worth a pirate. It's much more tame than the first game from what I can tell.
>>724182310NTA but yeah, they actually did. I think it's still not quite as good as Acts 1 and 2, but it's now more like a mild disappointment rather than obviously incomplete.
>>724180021New generation of devs that got uplifted through varies initiatives, guidelines, consultants and councils over the past decade and now you can see why they were hired in every other game with the accompanying quality of hiring by other priorities than>skilled and experienced at making the good video gameAnd they have really excellent job safety too - been part of a team that burned hundreds of millions in budget by making something bad no one wanted? No problem, just get rehired by another big studio for the next AAA game to do it again.
Every AAA launch in 2025 be like
>>724181891I'm amazed the usual suspects haven't stepped in to fix this problem.
>>724182202bot post or troon spam?
>>724181939I am in the open world. I was expecting the performance to drop but it didn't happen. I got 35 fps in oblivion remaster by comparison
>>724182348Define tame for me please. How does it apply here?
>>724182618>Troon spam confirmed
>>724167402Don't forget, YOU CAN'T ROMANCE THEM!!! I know everyone wanted to, I mean just look these designs, but you just can't, okay!
>>724180021>>724179064Am i gonna die of old age before i see a space rpg where people don't wear these overdesigned, goofy-ass """sci-fi""" armors?God i wish Starfield wasn't such a dogshit game
>>724182576How open is the world, actually? Go-Anywhere-Open or semi-linear garbage?
>>724182576Try very high settings, high settins and below are fucked sure the performance looks good but the shadow and flickering should look like absolute dogshit
>>724182801>Don't forget, YOU CAN'T ROMANCE THEM!!!If it's like Avowed there's a secret faggot romance with one (1) male companion because the faggot devs couldn't helpt themselves, but nothing equivalent with any women. Shit is beyond parody. Fucking hilarious.
im waiting for game pass release. also patches, apparently it crashes and has issues. no rush to play it
>>724182609Tame in it's quirky capitalism bad humor.It's still here and it's still cringe for the most part, but it has been toned down.Also, factions now are not just different corpos. You have one corpo, one communist-fascist hybrid dictatorship, one scientist faction that views everything in the universe through math equation, and one more faction I haven't encountered They're all insane in their own way, but you don't have to side with anyone
>>724172913I played it to completion twice. It is fucking awful. It has some of the worst writing I have ever forced myself to experience in a video game. My first playthrough was pure charisma, talking to everybody, solving most of my problems peacefully, you know; what the game is pushing you towards because Obsidian is still stroking themselves to players hyping up dialogue checks in FNV. My second playthrough was revenge for having to talk to all the god-awful NPCs. I spoke to nobody and simply ran around in super heavy armor with a club killing every person I met. I wouldn't even engage in dialogue, I'd just crack their skull with a mace as soon as I saw them. To the game's credit, one of its only positives is that it is entirely possible to still complete the game after killing every single human on every single planet. It's actually far easier to finish the game this way.If I pirate it, it will only be to repeat that cathartic experience.
>>724161708Its not as surprising (or as disappointing) that Masquerades Bloodlines 2 came out as well.
>>724169792NTA but I pirated TOW1 and feel entitled to a full monetary refund for playing that garbage.
>>724182815Starfield is fine and you were filtered. Just avoid the main quest, it's not even as long as some of the faction quests
>>724183310ads are getting smarter
>>724184136i'm not sure how you took my post as praise but it's notdo not play this shitty game
Just escaped the Protectorate building before I launched it into outer space. I felt nothing. This game feels boring and narratively sterile. I hope the people that spent $100 on this enjoy their purchase because I'm not even going to finish this for free.
>>724180457They probably think cool looking stuff is the same type of problematic that "conventional beauty standards" are.
>>724183971>main quest shit>faction quest shit>side quests shit>exploration shitFuck off. It's all shit.
>>724161830Same, I tried to play the first one twice and it was unbearable.
Avowed was bad, what type of person is spending $70 on this?
>>724172913Nice joke.
>>724180457This is just what happens when you let LGBTQ run the art department, enjoy.
>>724167402dios mio...
>>724183187That's the best part, the "no romance" is somehow supposed to signal integrity in character writing, when they have exactly none. And, as you mentioned, if Avowed is anything to go by "no romance" will also equate to characters telling you about their sex life in the same breath of introducing themselves. Even without the secret fish romance, the guy had a entire companion quest line about his old gay lover. They can't even stick to their own bullshit, nope, "no romance" means apparently you have to suffer through the devs' shipfag fanfiction with their deviantart OCs anyway.
>>724161830yeah i pirated VtMB2 out of boredom and spite and i'm already regretting itno way i'm going to do the same with TOW, the first game was more than enough
>Obsidian Entertainment is an American these 5 words should be enough to deter any sane man from even pirating this garbage. but if that's not enough.. >video game studio based in Irvine, Californiaand if this still doesn't deter you, you are a simply an irredeemable faggot
>>724186348Fallout 3 and New Vegas had no romances and the companions were far more better.Not saying women wouldn't want to fuck boone sideways
>>724186673>Fallout 3 and New Vegas had no romancesHow could you forget Amata, Red Lucy and Sarah Weintraub?
do these games have mods?
>>724182058yes you can
>>724186348It's like these fags forgot they did good romance in KotOR 2 and Alpha Protocol.
>>724167402Meh. 3/5 are white, pretty normal..
>>724186673You can literally fuck women in both games. Avowed had a brothel where you unironically can't even be a customer.
>>724187970Kotor 2 "romances" sucked. You must be thinking about Bastilla from the first game.
>>724186348Obsidian's writers obviously hate writing for RPGs and hate having to account for the player character. That's why they have no real presence, no real agency and are basically a walking stat block that cleans up other character's messes. They have no relationships, no place in the world and are driven BY the narrative instead of driving the narrative. These are failed nepobaby novelists propped up by charity money from brainless executives, just like they've been propped up by rich mommy and daddy their whole lives. They're not qualified video game writers. It's honestly pathetic.
>>724188058>>724186783No anons, fucking whores isn't being in a relationship.
>>724188272Visas' was pretty boring I grant you, but Handmaiden's was pretty nice. And women loved the Atton romance.
Apologize
>>724188048Only one of those is white. And even if you made all of them white they're still hideous.
>>724188467While I prefer the Handmaiden, does that even count? At least Visas is a little more explicit about it. Handmaiden's arc just ends with her embracing by her real name either way.
>>724187970No. They remember. They deliberatly think alpha protocol and KOTR is bigotry. You can ask them themselves.>>724188058I vaugely recall that brothel having an abortion plotline.>>724188301I actually miss hamburger helper. She was at least a coomer, and actually played TT RPGS.
>>724188509Hold up. STARFIELD VS OUTER WORLDS 2. WHAT SAY YOU ANONS?
>>724188781>I actually miss hamburger helper.
>>724188720>Handmaiden grows up hearing about you and her master with her love-hate feelings to the Exile>She's treated like shit and takes the chance to go to the Exile on a spy trip>While there she starts to crush on the Exile and courts you in autistic Echani fashion while the Exile isn't aware of what their spars mean>gets jealous over Visas and will absolutely cut that bitch if she gets too close to her man>Mira goes 'nah, I ain't getting involved in that carfight.'>Kreia goes 'haha Exile you're fucking my secret daughter. Don't fucking do that.'>Finally gets rid of her past ties with Atris to pursue the Exile full time Yes it was romance.
>>724189047My point being that this all happens by default just by running through her Echani training without your input, whereas at least Visas has a scene where she approaches you before the Ravager and you can reject or accept her feelings towards you.
>>724161708I'll download it, but I have no intention of playing it
>>724166389You could also run as admin like god intended.
>>724188884Sounds crazy but look at AC shadows. The trilogy of boring shit with OW1 Avowed, OW2. Concord. That big EA bomb. Or something like Mindseye. So terrible that we don't even shitpost about it.
>>724190274All flops, but it doesn't matter because Fuck You money still keeps getting funneled into developing successors. It's a death cult.
randomized and got a qt, I will now play this game
When Starfield released I played it for about 250 hours without putting it down, there just wasn't anything within that release window to compete with it. I could only stomach about 4 hours of this because there's too many decent games to play right now.
>>724188856starfield made me feel nothingat least outer worlds 2 makes me feel cringe with the shit writing and voice acting
I tried it and I just don't give the slightest shit about the setting so I feel no drive to play through the average gameplay. The game also looks like shit out in the "open world">>724192579starfield hooked me enough to play through it once but I agree I probably wouldn't be interested if it released today. at least the shipbuilding was cool. the world in outer worlds 2 is better because it at the very least feels coherent but both still suck
This shitty game crashed yesterday and since then I can't even remain in the main menu for a second before it crashes (audio remains). Already tried a whole lot of bullshit to no avail. Absolute jank. And this is 80 usd? What the actual fuck?
>>724161708companionless run mandatory shoot all women on sight and minorities runs if this is impossible the game is not worthy
>>724172913If you think that you´ll probably enjoy 2 aswell.For me it´s really just luke warm trash. The gunplay is the best aspect of the game which doesn´t say much if you have to compare it to F4 but without VATS and instead bullet time. Everything else is just boring. It´s starts with the premise of "Le Corporations & Capitalsm bad" so ofc all the "bad" people are cartoon villan tier retarded, with havin peasants and shit as the "thinking" population which every healthy human being would gravitate to. The we got the same loot cainers with the same shit and sometimes you get a quest item inbetween. And it ends with shitty CC where everyone has the same niggerlips because the devs thought that it´s not necessary. Everythin is half cooked but at least mostly bugfree. But even then, the game is just boring and cringe inducing.4/10 ironically corposlop.
>>724184856Same, already bored but slogged trough the space market afterwards and landed on the 2nd planet. Was hoping for cool dune adventure but ofc it´s some boring not muslims in desert caves/mountains. Miss me with that shit.The first planet was already too bland and it had the exact same problem like dragons dogma 2: exploration sucks major dicks becuase of the illusion of having a open world but it´s just long empty hallways sprinkeled with the same mobs and givng the same rewards 9 out of 10 times which is mainly junk. The difference is that DD2 had bigger enemy variet which wasn´t big to begin with.
>>724192579>I could only stomach about 4 hours of this because there's too many decent games to play right now.name the games
i cant believe im saying this but fall out 4 london is unironically way better than this, obsidian is truly talentless
>>724169714Just like the first game!
