Outward Definitive Edition

one moment i am fine the next something is trying to peg me amazing game, possibly the best

The game makes you feel more immersed as you are required to do more manual work to advance such as talking to different NPCs identifying which ones have quests without them just having an ! over their heads, the map does not have an indicator for player location requiring them to use their surrounding landmarks to identify their location, the character needing to actively select the option to drop their backpack to not be hindered when dodging in combat causing you to manage carefully what is stored in your pocket vs what is in your equipment bag, and the food / water / fatigue / sleep gauges do require management but also do not need 100% attention every few minutes allowing you to focus on a quest or an area your exploring but still get reminded the character needs maintained as well. A few things that can make the game challenging would be the hit box timing is sometimes rough for blocking or dodging where your character seems to take damage as the enemy is still winding back for the attack or for you to release block after their attack visually looked to conclude but as you release block to counter attack it registers the enemies attack late causing you to get hit. Another feature that can be difficult to work with is having 8 quick key slots for weapons and skills, with the variety of skills available and weapons such as bow / sword / shield all needing their own slot (rune magic is 4 slots to use each rune for combination spells) plus potions etc it would really be nice to have a tool to add more quick key slots or to keybind them in the menus to avoid having to quickly jump to inventory mid fight to try and find the needed antidote or weapon with different elemental attack.

没打击感

I love souls like, i love hard games, i love survival games, i love gothic. But this game is just slog to get silver with alot of cheese and a bad combat. The world feels empty an there is not a single story to talk about. Shame

The experience is way goooddd

This game had a lot of potential to be a fun and exciting open world adventure game; however the game's developers have gone out of their way to make the game dam frustrating as hell to play by design. It could have been a huge hit with a massive player base, but probably turns off a lot of potential players. The core problem with this game is that it is supposed to be a large, expansive open world exploration and survival game, and yet the player has few tools to do any of this because the game has the worst inventory and travel system of any game ever made. To try to deal with the game's horrible inventory system, you can run a specific quest or spend hours looking for power coils to get the biggest backpack in the game. This pack is needed from the start. I had to google youtube guides for it. Without this backpack you will have huge problems gathering and crafting anything with the game's tiny inventory system. The same system means forget about going in heavy armour as it just too heavy. Expect a non functional map like in gothic, but even worse, with no teleportation, no mounts and no pack animals nor wagons or carts. Expect a frustrating health, mana and stamina daily reduction system which is just a royal pain in the .... The game can be a huge pain in the ass to play and is only worth it with a heavy discount on Steam. For less frustrating alternatives to Outward, I would recommend games like Soul Mask, Conan Exiles, Dune, Valheim, Enshrouded, Crimson Desert, Palworld, and Gothic 1 Remake and Gothic 2 Gold, which are all games that do everything that Outward want's to do but are 100% less frustrating.
