The women obviously only all have short hair because they didn't want to bother with hair physics but even ignoring that it's not a coincidence that all of the women are always more confident than their male peers. Still like the game but the criticisms about the female characters are valid.

It's a perfectly average game whose only real problem was marketing itself as the next New Vegas so everyone went in with sky-high expectations.

It's bad because it felt boring as fuck compared the studios' previous game Fallout New vegas. Sorry to say Obsidian will always be compared to their grandslam New vegas game.

I actually got past the first planet but then eventually realized I was just going from waypoint to waypoint without giving much of a shit with what was going on and realized I had nothing to look forward to while playing and dropped it after one of the early dungeon planets. The game only has one joke and all the RPG elements feel both neutered and overly complicated at the same time, and the combat is too straightforward.

Its bad because it railroads you.
First planet I managed to steal both energy cores, despite fixing everyone's problems I can only claim credit for one of the two quests.

Second section was some sort of space dock, they gave me some bullshit about how I can't leave until I get railroaded. No way around this had to kill everyone, quest progresses regardless.

Dogshit game design.

played and beaten it and got 100% completion
the major issue with the game is that the whole thing is preachy as shit to a annoying degree

i don't play video games for politics nor do I get myself involved with much to any politics. so if your developing a game. how about you do use all a favor and stop your bloody political preaching shit. you are making a game, a thing for entertainment. not some bill for congress.

I actually played as a blonde dapper-like chick with a black moustache, I wore the Spacer's Choice headgear through the entire game. The jeeta did too.
While I enjoyed the game, I wouldn't recommend or even play it again.
It is not really a good game. I enjoyed but it is just not good.
And the scientist, I forgot his name, he... is literally Rick from Rick and Morty.

I do hate women.
But that has nothing to do with bad game design.
Women are garbage for the same reasons this game is garbage; it drags you into 25 minute conversations and when you stop listening they turn into yelling at you.

It's bad because it's boring and pointless. After reaching the space station or w/e I asked myself "why the fuck am I playing this" and I couldn't find a good answer so I stopped playing.
Not being filled with dykes would've made it less jarring though

It's bad because the gameplay is incredibly shallow and there's essentially no build diversity at all.

Also, while attempting to be critical of its themes, it fails to actually explores the aspects of its themes that make it worth critiquing.
It's all very surface level "Capitalism Bad" which is fine, but makes for a pretty uncompelling RPG.

I'd like to put something in perspective, new vegas came out in 2010, 15 years ago. I'm not going to say some bullshit about "video games in their infancy" because that would be nonsense but just consider the sheer uptick in writing quality for RPGs specifically in 15 years. Bauldrs gate 3 characters are really fucking good.
Divinity characters are really fucking good.
Outer worlds is the same shit you get in new vegas, moustache twirling cartoon villians and greenpeace protestors with 3 neurons fighting for dominance, shit just does not make for interesting extended dialog.

That's really unfair to New Vegas. Worst you get for mustache twirling villains in that is Mortimer. Even Caesar isn't evil for evil's sake, he's just a moderately educated dude with a autistic fixation on Rome

Cartoonish representation of Caesar.
There's others too, House, Benny, hell all the families on the strip, they are at best caricatures of characters. Not that that's a bad thing, new vegas is old and it still did better character design than most of the other games around at the time, but it's a far cry from modern well written RGPS.

It's bad becuase the gameplay and mechanics where shallow and garbage. If yuou start directly comparing your game to Fallout and NV, expect people to have expectations. The RPG mechanics where all extremly shallow and the Loot system was teh worst, instead of weapons being static, they're leveled and what was initially a nice progression system will shatter as soon as the same weapons start dropping again except 10 levels higher. Now the estarter pistoil is way stonger than this endgame AR and you have to replace every weapon you have with a higher level version. It's a dog shit system and even Fallout 4 did it better.

And that was only part of the overall leveling and progression. Not to even mention how inconsequential crime and reactions are. I don't even remember if you could steal but I remember nobody cared about anything you did.
>Well it's not a Bethesda game! it's supposed to be just like a railroaded isometric CRPG!
Ok, then don't advertise your game as a Fallout-killer. Don't have worse quest choices and dialogue variation than a 90's CRPG.

But your right, Obsidian doesn't deserve the hate they get. Way too many people just hand wave all the issues with Obsidian as "Woke-shit". If it wasn't woke, it would still be a dog shit RPG that makes Bethesda look good and complex in comparison.

I don't know who that is and frankly don't care, I just had the image saved. None of that changes my point that I think women with short hair who can pull it off are hot.

It's bad because the loot is meaningless. Ammo is too plentiful as are lockpicks and health kits.
Armor and weapons have no variety just choose bigger number. Most of the skills or perks or whatever are pure numbers instead of fun additions that change how you play. Almost all the dialogue choices are boring and the checks are mostly easy to hit.
It's a good start and I think they'll do a lot better with 2 but The Outer Worlds 1 is not a good game. I do not regret however my two playthroughs and run through the DLCs.
