About
The Outer Worlds 2 is the eagerly-awaited sequel to the award-winning first-person sci-fi RPG from Obsidian Entertainment (just look at the exciting number of dashes in this sentence!). Time to clear your calendar – get ready for an action-packed adventure with a new crew, new weapons, and new enemies in a new colony! So much newness!
As a daring and most likely good-looking Earth Directorate agent, you must uncover the source of devastating rifts threatening to destroy all of humanity. Your investigation leads to Arcadia, home of skip drive technology, where the fate of the colony, and ultimately the entire galaxy, rests on your decisions—your strengths, your flaws, your crew, and the factions you choose to trust.
The Arcadia colony is engulfed in a factional war, as the Protectorate’s so-called benevolent rule is challenged by the rebellion of their religious order and a corporate invasion. As destructive rifts spread across the colony, each faction fights to control or close them for their own ends. Navigate diverse zones, uncover hidden lore, and shape the fate of a system on the brink!
Build your character with the abilities and choices that reflect your playstyle. The colony reacts to your every move, crafting a narrative that’s yours to own—whether you’re a disciple of diplomacy, an astute strategist, a crusader for chaos, or something different altogether. And yes, you can dumb!
Recruit companions with unique traits, backgrounds and goals. Whether you choose to help them achieve their ambitions or steer them toward your own objectives, your influence shapes their growth (or death), making them an integral part of the immersive story you create together.

Poor Man's rpg... 3/5 at most ... for a "open world" action RPG, its very lacking compared to others like the Borderlands games or Fallout series. The "worlds" are basically a small map with very linear paths to a couple of locations with a few sub smaller sub maps within it. The weapon choices are also very limited compared to other games Skill tree is also very linear with the "perks" not really affecting gameplay too much. I would wait for at least a 60% sale if you are considering this... plenty of better games to buy at full price
...게임 진행이... 진짜 너무 별로네요... 이전작은 그래도 할만 했는데 이번 작은.... 전쟁 중인 세력 사이에 끼어서 내 할일 하는 내용인데 두번째 행성부터 심부름이 꼬리에 꼬리에 꼬리를 물어 진행되는 재미 1도 없는 노비 식 플래이가 전부네여 어우... 40% 할인 받아서 구매했는데도 아까운 경우는 이게임이 처음 번역도 두번째 행성부터 개판이에요 ㅋㅋ 반말 했다가 높임말 했다가 아주 집중 1도 안댐
It is absolutely fantastic. I do not understand the haters. This is the most fun I have had in years of being a gamer.
Не понимаю почему люди хают игру? Мне очень зашла! А-ля фаллауто-биошоковый-космос) Прямой наследник 1ой части к тому же без долбаного "веса" где присутствует во всех РПГ и нет необходимости все продавать или утилизировать. Прошел со снайперским билдом всю игру на одном дыхании! Рекомендую всем любителям рпг а-ля фаллаут)
The game has a bug that prevents ALL saves. Lost so many hours of progress for nothing
半成品就拿出来卖了,三大势力只做了两个
Game keeps crashing after a few mminutes
Очень спорно, но в целом мне понравилось. У The Outer Worlds 2 есть заметные проблемы, и местами их сложно игнорировать. После пролога сюжет сильно проседает, а ближе к середине становится довольно пресным. В итоге основная история ощущается слабой: ей не хватает напряжения, интересных поворотов и нормальной эмоциональной ставки. Юмор и сатира тоже работают не всегда. В первой части карикатурность мира была забавной и свежей, а здесь появляется ощущение, что игра слишком настойчиво объясняет шутку игроку и выкручивает абсурд до уровня, где это уже не смешно, а просто утомляет, ну и в целом то что у всех NPC, IQ ниже чем у Папича это тоже сильно напрягает. Прокачка тоже показалась спорной. Система вроде бы даёт выбор, но по ощущениям не всегда делает развитие персонажа действительно интересным. К тому же максимальный уровень достигается довольно быстро, из-за чего часть побочных квестов я уже не стал проходить: мотивации становилось меньше, потому что награда за них ощущалась не такой важной. Ещё в игре хорошо видно, где разработчики пытались экономить. Некоторые моменты выглядят так, будто их сделали максимально практично и дёшево. Но при всём этом игра всё равно оставила положительное впечатление. Некоторые планеты получились действительно красивыми и запоминающимися их приятно исследовать, рассматривать и просто находиться там. Визуально у игры есть сильные моменты. Отдельно понравилась стрельба. Перестрелки ощущаются бодро, оружием приятно пользоваться, и в целом боёвка стала одной из тех вещей, которые реально тащили прохождение вперёд. Итого: Сюжет слабый, сатира местами перегибает, прокачка спорная, а экономия иногда бросается в глаза. Но красивые локации, приятные перестрелки и общий дух приключения всё же сделали своё дело. Несмотря на все минусы, я остался скорее доволен.
It plays and feels like your average IP cash-grab.
sucks to never have the correct dialogue option available... I feel like I need levels in everything so I don't miss out on parts of the game, or I have to play through a few times to get the permutations I want..? idk. not very fun.
