About The Outer Worlds

✦ AI summary

Wake up decades into the future as a colonist caught in the middle of a corporate conspiracy, where your choices shape the story, your character build, and the fate of the Halcyon colony. Obsidian's signature player-driven RPG lets you tackle quests however you want, embrace character flaws for unique perks, command a crew of companions with their own agendas, and explore a sci-fi frontier overrun with alien monsters.


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.

KEY FEATURES

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.

Игра похожа на официанта, который несёт коктейли «Fallout», «Borderlands» и «Mass Effect». На полпути он жёстко обсирается, поскальзывается на своём же дерьме, встаёт и всё-таки приносит тебе коктейли с элементами свежего кала. После этого, как ни в чём не бывало, кидает пару тупых шуток и просит за это деньги.

It's ok. This isn't New Vegas. However, it is a solid clone of the 3D Fallout formula with both charm and dullness. On one hand, the game has a lot of color, cool armor and weapons. On another hand, the writing, like Fallout 4, is kinda eh. It's not terrible, but it is clearly lacking compared to New Vegas and its script. Characters and factions end up being less interesting than the various Fallout factions that are so fascinating. The game has phobia systems, where you gain the opportunity to get a perk point in exchange for a few stats being lowered by one when near certain types of enemies. Cool right? At the same time, the game only has three ammo types. THREE. How many does New Vegas have? 65, when factoring in sub types like armor piercing. To me, every weapon in the game being railroaded into three ammo types is kinda flaccid. At least the weapons are diverse. I noticed you can't buy it on Steam anymore, but the newer re-release might be the same game for the most part. On a deep sale, I would give it a try. It might scratch a Fallout itch.

[3/5] Good. It's a fun enough game, but I never found myself particularly invested in the world or the characters. It’s a bit like "We have Fallout at home".

Oh I really wanted to like this game from the beginning - felt much like a boarderlands at first. I kinda liked that. But then - the talking ... and talking ... and as soon as a finally leave the starting area every npc you meet talks you into a new quest and talks about it. I am sorry, too much said for me - I feel more like shooting things then ... well, talk about it.
