About this item
Highlights
- The player-driven story RPG: In keeping with the Obsidian tradition, how you approach The Outer Worlds is up to you. Your choices affect not only the way the story develops; but your character build, companion stories, and end game scenarios.
- You can be flawed, in a good way: New to The Outer Worlds is the idea of flaws. A compelling hero is made by the flaws they carry with them. While playing The Outer Worlds, the game tracks your experience to find what you aren't particularly good at. Keep getting attacked by Raptidons? Taking the Raptiphobia flaw gives you a debuff when confronting the vicious creatures, but rewards you with an additional character perk immediately. This optional approach to the game helps you build the character you want while exploring Halcyon.
- Lead your companions: During your journey through the furthest colony, you will meet a host of characters who will want to join your crew. Armed with unique abilities, these companions all have their own missions, motivations, and ideals. It's up to you to help them achieve their goals, or turn them to your own ends.
- Explore the corporate colony: Halcyon is a colony at the edge of the galaxy owned and operated by a corporate board. They control everything... except for the alien monsters left behind when the terraforming of the colony’s two planets didn’t exactly go according to plan. Find your ship, build your crew, and explore the settlements, space stations, and other intriguing locations throughout Halcyon."
Description
"The Outer Worlds is an award-winning single-player first-person sci-fi RPG from Obsidian Entertainment and Private Division.
Lost in transit while on a colonist ship bound for the furthest edge of the galaxy, you awake decades later only to find yourself in the midst of a deep conspiracy threatening to destroy the Halcyon colony. As you explore the furthest reaches of space and encounter various factions, all vying for power, the character you decide to become will determine how this player-driven story unfolds. In the corporate equation for the colony, you are the unplanned variable."

I wanted to like this game as I'm a big fan of RPGs...but it just made me want to replay the Mass Effect series. The graphics are good and the combat is fine, but there's too much time spent talking to other characters, sorting through inventory (of which there is way too much), staring at loading screens, and upgrading weapons that are rarely used. This would be fine if the writing and characters were really good, but I found them to be mediocre. I gave it a chance (20-30 hours), but ultimately decided it wasn't worth the time to finish.

Fun gameplay, good writing, enjoyable characters.
I'm just finishing up my first play through, and I took my time, so have hit about 37 hours this time through. I already know I want to change some of my skills & attributes for my next time through, and am looking forward to playing a different type of character. I've had several other games waiting to be played, but haven't been able to put this one down - and I'm really thinking of playing through again now rather than starting something else.
Visually - the game looks very distinctive - it can't be mistaken for something else.
Gameplay - while you might get tired of fighting the same types of enemies after a while - if you're trying to play through without killing anyone, it gives a pretty cool challenge. You can mod your weapons so they do more damage, have different effects, become really good for sniping or hitting things, etc. Really though - it's all about the story, and I've done a few things where I saved, made a choice, and then revised & chose differently - it's cool to see the outcomes from the choices you make affecting how your story goes.
The characters in this game really are well done. There are a couple that I absolutely love - and don't want to disappoint, there are a few that I absolutely hated, but that I then learned more about & felt a bit different. It's cool because there's more to ALMOST everyone than meets the eye.
If you want the best FPS - don't buy this. It's only good there.
If you want something that's fun & rewards you for your play style - absolutely pick this game up.
