I pirated this game 2 days ago, I enjoyed the first one but found it very forgettable and cringy but had its moments, this one is too awful desu, the gameplay is mostly the same but it’s all California brain rot speak telling you to do things kind of quests, and most characters are women and some black guys, the dialogue is really bad, and the performance is extremely poor, it’s unplayable at 60fps unless you use dlss (4070), after 3-4 hours of gameplay i uninstalled it, I honestly can’t comprehend that there’re people that paid 70usd for this obvious slop

Utter shite.
I think their focus groups consisted of actual niggers, from age 12 to 37. They basically added everything the majority of black ape african niggers agreed with. The nigger market is extremely important because they are dumb as apes and spend their hard earned slave wages like no others. Brand loyalty means everything to a nigger. You won't find a happier nigger than one with Apple Airpods 4 and Apple iPhone 17 Pro, which is why so many MBAs chase the nigger market.

>legendary mods can't be used on other guns or equipment so you are stuck with the same stuff whole game

You will always embarrass yourself when you speak on things you have no idea about. The hypercapitalist faction is just one of three. The other two are a hyper collectivist north korea esque totalitarian government and the other is a "trust the science" faction based on using math to predict the future. The game makes fun of all factions and the collectivist one is the de facto evil one that you can't join. The capitalist faction is shown to be the most competent (or least retarded) out of all of them

There's a lack of variety in reactivity limited by the fact, the missions are linear and without multiple ways of ending them. There's some to be found, requiring conditions to fulfill them, but I only found it at the end of the first planet and it ultimately only ends up changing the slideshow at the end.

I am in the middle of Planet two and I wouldn't compare it to FNV. The writing can be extremely awkward and is mostly composed of the same responses (yes, yes, yes, I will be back).

The lack of granularity in the mission design, world building, dialogue and encounters can also be seen as lacking. It feels like been guided on these invisible railroads, while the game attempts to give you ideas, ultimately, just ending up with the same solution automatically solved by random facts. Most skill checks are unbelievable useless (I reloaded and checked most) and I cannot even say it gives any lore, because it do not. You can complete the mission either way resulting in the same exact rewards.

Lockpicking is good for pickpocketing, but then mostly becomes useless. Hacking seems utterly useless.

This is without saying anything about the abundant hordes of females leading these planets and factions, or all factions share a common idea of sexual identity and relations. But I try to ignore that.

I think they just didn't have enough content to feel comfortable with letting the player skip major questlines. So they ended up making everyone basically do the same quests (until close to the end) with choices at the end of the quest. I really like the fact that some speech checks require you having uncovered a specific piece of information in addition to passing a speech check. Also I like how npcs actually acknowledge and react to your choices. But yeah without the true freedom to accomplish quests as you wish and skip major quests because of your choices, it limits the reactivity

I would rate it higher than Awowed, even if that doesn't say much. NPC's do move around (some do not), and there's interactivity, while Awowed barely had any. The TOD cycle also helps and there's some personality to be found, it is mostly unlikable, but still some kind of personality, which I appreciate. The gameplay can be fun, albeit repetitive and easy (I play on very hard).

>>725021838
Sure, these are good elements for any game preaching the RPG tree. They could easily have added nonlinearity to some side missions or multiple outcomes to the side branches of the main missions. The opposite ends up delivering a illusion of having any input, while resulting in a feeling of dissonance after completion. The player agency is simply too lacking for me to feel like anything, but some kind of weird, railroaded circus ride with lesser writing pretending to be something else entirely.

I would be much more positive, if the writing weren't so repetitive between factions and instead of being comically layed on the player, then being layed seriously on the player and then it would be up to the player to find the comic value. That decreases accessibility of course. Remove the unseriousness factor of the writing and it ends up being quite lacking in all aspects, like a cover up.

Overhated is true. But I cannot see any fluctuations in rating it by using generalised rating criteria.

For a 1:1 comparison. It is definitely not in the same league as FNV (or even F3). The primary lack of reactivity takes it down, together with the writing.

It is better than Awowed, no discussion, so rating it 5 would be unfair, but so would rating it 8.

Safer to say it is a proper 6.5 with some elements taking it up to 7, yet a lot of elements are driving the scoring down. If the player cannot ignore the heavy emphasis on females in the game, then it would be much lower for those.

the game marketed itself as a "you'll spend 100s of hours in this deep and complex universe" - but u dont fly a ship (not a real space game) and its just a looter shooter with boring dialog "choices" in maps so small it should have been marketed as a "demo" than an actual finished game.

Here's a secret. RPGs are one of the most popular genres with women and especially fanfic tumblr girls. 5e and continued emphasis on dialogue cinematics has led to explosive growth in genre popularity among that demographic. My sister got into DnD in college and has since DMed numerous campaigns. Women are VERY into the social element.

Why are these games woke? Because the audience is there, and at this point they're heavily involved in the development side as well. The more the game centers around dialogue and story, the more woke it'll be because of interest from women. The more the game centers on action and combat, the less woke it'll be because it'll draw a more male-dominated audience.

Women are not traditional gamers and are difficult to reach the normal way. They'll be bizarrely in-the-know about obscure indie management sims while simultaneously in the dark about anticipated AAA releases. With this audience, marketing will live and die by its capacity to generate viral word-of-mouth (e.g. bear sex ad).

Interesting.
So... where is this supposed audience? Why didn't they come out in droves to play the Outer Worlds 2? Why didn't they come out in droves to play DA: The Veilguard?

Because it's obviously a terrible, unappealing video game.

sorry bud but no one is paying $70 for your shit.

should have kept your games at $50 so you could at least get a couple thousand curious suckers to buy it instead of a couple hundred desperate retards.

Can anyone tell me what the companions are like? They look ultra gay and brown, and even if I kind of want to play the game, I can't imagine using a cast of companions this lame.
