The Outer Worlds - October 25th

[kr1kit]

I'm having an absolute blast with this game, I'm about 20 hours in and I am only just getting started. For the person who said it only took them around 15 hours, you must have just blasted through the primary story missions and that's it... I'm taking my time, I'm doing every single side and companion quest, I'm exploring everything, crafting/modding/etc...

For someone just getting started in the game, my #1 advice is to make sure you put a good amount of your skill points into hacking and lock picking, those two things come in SO HANDY, I can't stress that enough.

Loving it as well. Went melee, engineering, and dialog. I definitely think I'm gonna play through again with a companion based character on hard mode. Excellent game, and I hope Obsidian get's their hands on Fallout 5. They would do so fukking well with it.

Liking the game so far. I dont think the loot being stagnant is necessarily a bad thing at this juncture. I get tired of playing borderlands and needing to sort through 10038p2820 pieces of loot just to find the 1 or 2 that are good.

On the last mission now, ~14 hours in and I have done a lot of the side quests, probably not close to all though and at level 26 right now. Fun game but I doubt I'll replay it.

How are you guys getting through this game in 12-15 hours? It took me 4 to get off the first Planet. Are you not exploring the worlds or anything?

I am, as much as I think there is to explore, might be missing some though. Main story is very short though, really not much to it.

[Muzzlrpress]

About how far am I?

Spoiler!

just landed on Monarch and got the black girl. Did it the hard way cuz I'm broke and killed all the fukking mantises.

Interdasting. I've been doing side missions out the ass. Can you continue after the main story ends?

The question of whether a game has an open end or not is a pretty big spoiler i think. Are you sure you want to know this? i dont.

Like 20% or 30% if you just stick to the main story, there is something like 6-8 total missions in the main plot.


Just beat ti in ~15 hours, good game and enjoyed it; not sure I'd say it was a $60 game though. Fun, enjoyable, but not very long and I don't see too much replay value in it, glad I got it on the games pass. I'd be happy if I paid $30-40 for it if I were to buy it.

that's awesome. I've been taking my time and doing a lot of side quests, so I'm probably gonna hit the 30 hour mark. So no plan to make a different build?

[Gxp23]

Lost my first companion on Supernova, didn't have revive perk and hadn't had a save in a while. Goodbye chum, ye shall be missed.

You monster! Who the fuk did you kill?

That's one of the complaints a lot of people have about the game. It looks like there are a crap load of planets to explore, but they're not all like the first planet. Some of them are like that one early on (Scylla or something?) where you literally land, kill 5 guys, and that's it.

Nah, the story is pretty linear really so my motivation is low for replay. Go with corporate or not, that's about every choice.

Vicar Max the fkn GOAT

"May the law have mercy on you. I won't."
"It's in fking french!?"

Holy chit lol

[Gxp23]

Vicar Max, the best one liner character there (probs one of the best special moves too) but I had to let him go, I had been doing a long mission and the last save was too far back. I have a feeling I am going to lose a few more soon.

"Heres a little something I learned in prison"

Not sure what kind of prison you went to Vicar but damn I am happy you did.

Yeah I doubt I'll replay, but if I do it'll be a genocide run.

Ya'll know you can respec skills and perks on the ship right?

[Slurgie]

Cool game so far. Only level 6, but it does seem really really easy. Picked up a machine gun and have just been melting enemies ever since.

Does it get harder?

Is the game like fallout but obviously it’s own storyline? My ps4 broke but looking to get new one Black Friday

Yep.

Yeah, but I am lazy and generic, love just going guns/speech skills usually.

This game makes me fee like a psychopath.


Random annoying NPC: ayyyy, go travel to another planet and kill these guys for me
ME: lol, no thanks bro "kills npc and takes his stuff"

Sounds like you just are a psychopath.

Kinda like new vegas with a piece of mass effect, and vats is slow mo real time.

[Slurgie]

No one else finds the game too easy?

[Voidgaze]

No one else finds the game too easy?

Yes. Killing mobs is stupid easy and I find the lack of mob variety and ease of combat to be a negative.

The only time I died was when fighting a group of primals on the starter planet. I was undergeared.

Still a fun game though.

[SideshowBill]

indeed, way too easy i'm thinking of not using bullet time (TTD?? forgot how they call it)
hopefully, it gets more inrteresting on supernova difficulty
