The Outer Worlds 2

I would like to say first off that this game is not worth the full price. I bought it on sale (50% off) and that was worth it in my opinion. I got the value out of the purchase price. Things I liked: - The game is in every way better than the previous game. The combat, the perk system, the story, the environments, everything is a step up. - Characterization in the world was good, world building put a lot out there and I think they did well with fleshing out the universe a lot more than the first game. - Environments are great looking. Some issues I had: - The game beats the capitalist thing to death. TO DEATH. It seems like 40% of the dialogue in this game has someone bringing up marketing or ads. It gets real thin, real fast. - While combat is fun, it gets pretty easy about 50% of the way through the game. I played the game on hard. - At the end of the day, the game came off as fairly generic. It had all of the trappings of an ARPG, but didn't do anything to really set itself aside from the pack. I am still recommending this game because if you like Obsidian games, RPGs with action combat in general you will have a good time. Not every game needs to be a zinger to be enjoyable. 7/10.

Boring and unengaging story line.

If you liked the 1st game then this will be good for you also. Same strange guns and armor, funny bits and an intersting story. I didnt hit any bugs, and had fun for my 50hr start to finish. Dont see too much replay since you know all the locations and whats what. I would say get it on special and you wont regret it.

I do not understand how something can be as bland and uninspired as The Outer Worlds 2. A blank canvas or a UE5 slop game made in 2 days have more going on. They managed to create the most boring and pointless universe, populated with boring humans and nothing else.

Story = 5/5 Gameplay = 5/5 Combat = 4/5 Graphics = 4/5 Dialog = 5/5 Voice Acting = 5/5 I would pay $80 for this game.

This game scratched the itch left behind by the Fallout games. 10/10

Have I enjoyed this game? yes. is it as good as the first game ABSOLUTLY NOT there are way fewer choices which is what made the first game so great and they dumbed down the companion system significantly, I was thinking when I went in well there were a lot of naysayers for the first game so the second game is probably the same or similar in that regard and I ignored the somewhat mixed reviews but so far it has failed to meet the standard by quite a lot that the first game set I will update the review upon completion of the game just in case it gets any better but unfortunately I highly doubt it

Not nearly as fun as the first game. It doesn't lead you anywhere. Just a lot of spread-out locations, and no indication of where you are going. Definitely a no buy.

Wem Action Rollenspiele gefallen, so könnte diese Person auch Freude an diesem hier haben. Die Entwikler haben sich nicht gescheut, einen komplett neuen Still zu entwikeln den man bisher so im Si-Fi noch nie gesehen hat und zwar eine Mischung aus Nouveau Art und Jugendstil. Die Welt die sie erschaffen haben, ist durchdacht und bietet einige Skurille Figuren und Auswüchse, ebenso übertrieben wie auch noch gerade realistisch, dass diese nicht lächerlich wirken. Man sich aber trotzdem fragt, was ist da gerade passiert? Zumindest gilt das im grossen und ganzen für den ersten Teil. Der zweite Teil ist von der Zeit und dem Budget das zu verfügung stand, nicht das was er hätte sein können. Vielen Charakteren fehtl es an persönlichkeit, die Story hat einige Mängel und an den Dialogoptionen bzw an deren Ausgängen hapert es. Das Ganeplay ist aus dem letzten Jahrzehnt auch wenn man jetzt klettern kann, fehlt es definitiv an der Steuerung. Was wirklich gut an dem Spiel ist, ist das Skillsystem welches gebaut wurde. Es bewegt dich dazu, dich zu entscheiden wie dein Charakter gespielt werden soll und auch wie gut für dich Dialoge und Questverläufe ausgehen können. Dazu kommen noch all die Nachteile welche dir das Spiel immer wieder anbietet, welche dein Spielerlebnis deutlich beeinflussen können. Bisher habe ich das Spiel einmal durchgespielt und werde es bestimmt in ein zwei Jahren nochmal durchspielen. Vielleicht ändere ich meine Meinung bis dahin, doch im Moment ist es etwa so gekommen wie ich es erwartet habe. Mittelmass!
