Even if that's true
Writing and characters seem really lame and gay
And those are two very important aspects of any RPGs

Who IS the audience for this game?
People who thought Borderlands simply had TOO much gameplay?
People who thought Starfield would had been better if it lean harder into a more tumblr-esque art style?
People who thought Bioshock Infinite writing just wasn't heavy handed enough?
James Gunn himself?

Playing OW1 right now. Are the flaws more pickable than they are in OW1? I love the Idea of Flaws, but honestly there's like.. 2 that you can take in the first game that are not MASSIVELY a pain in the ass, and the perks are not that game changingly amazing that you are jonesing to fuck yourself up for one more.
Like, who the fuck halves their carry weight for 20% vendor prices? Jesus.

If it's anything like the first game then the writing will very specifically avoid anything remotely offensive. Not good for an "immersive" RPG.

Going backwards, losing important elements previous games had. Writing and character aesthetics are also big dropoffs on modern obsidian vs classic. Look at the companions for this game. That's the writing and design for the entire game in a nutshell.

Why am I like this? When the fuck did I get zoomer attention span? When I was young I used to play fucking pixel RPGs, and spoke to every god damn npc in every town, and for good measure also pressed "A" on every single object that looked like it might be interactible.

tim cain is more of a systems dude, which was the least of the outer worlds problems. leonard boyarsky was the credited writer and the writing is like 90% of the game's problems. unsurprising that the writing is shit considering he started his career in game development as an artist, not a writer. he was the lead art director for fallout 1. mark o'green wrote fallout 1 and 2. people also forget that it was a trio of leads that resulted in fallout's success, always forgetting about jason anderson, the lead technical director.

It's the big issue with insisting to call it outer worlds 2 when a lot of people had a terrible experience with the first one. I still need to get around playing it but all the people that made the effort told me it was way better.

Every character has the same sense cringy of humor. Every character is voiced by either a butch lesbian or a faggy numale, sometimes they have a quirky accent. Every character has a gay and retarded personality. Every character talks in the same cadence and tone. Every character is unserious in serious situations and vice versa. It's the biggest pile of shit I've ever played

It's utterly toothless. It treats it's sci-fi ideas and setting as an opportunity to cram self inserts and fan inserts onto the NPCs. Every slightly interesting idea put forth is done so by the most annoying person you can imagine. It's like the entire writing staff is just a bunch of clones of one person.

I love how even the shills can't get any discussion going about this game. No one gave the slightest fuck about the story for the first one. It was NEVER discussed. This one will be the same.

Some of them are more pickable yes. Others are there just to grief, just so you are forced to pick them when you get the "Flawed" flaw.
for example, "Lie options have no speech requirement but you can only pick between Lie or Leave Conversation options every time". Or Kleptomania, you get 100% vendor price on stolen goods but automatically steal stuff sometimes.
But then you also get some like "+50% crounching speed but everytime you crouch your knees crack and it alerts guards nearby", or "+50% mag size but if you reload when the mag is empty you get a debuff."
Some of them alter your playstyle, others completely alter your playthrough

Game is funny a lot of times but also uses the comedy approach to showcase 3 imperfect system that are failing but still fighting for expansions on little moons. The radios are insane good and I think I finally heard it all by now.

thats one of the most annoying ones. it makes so you can only level your lowest level skills. takes forever to get lockpicking to 12 with that fucking flaw unless you only have literally 2 skills

Writing and just low dev skill/ambition.
For example friendly NPC's are just set in stone, they completely ignore you if you arent interacting with them. Even in Skyrim a 15 year old game, if you crouched near an NPC they'd comment on it, if you went to a store backroom they would follow you. Not in this game, you can be standing right in front of them, throw a decoy grenade behind them and they will still look and investigate.

Saw this one yesterday that gives more skill points retroactively. When Flaws really impact how you play the game they put that as extra warning there.
Also Engineering is so fucking overtuned. It literally picks 20 times more door loocks than lockpicking does on top of free craft, inspecting any kind of fallen apart gadget, opening special item treasures and of course a common dialogue option.

yep, but it also only triggers when you get 5 skills. so you can technically max the few skills you want first and then pick the other.
but it still does suck overall, because even if you want to get a single point in a skill you have to commit

The writing is very unsubtle and lol so random but I can stomach that. What I don't like is how railroaded and linear the game is, despite trying to be a bethesda clone. When you start the game you have access to 1 planet and the "tier 1" weapons. When you progress the main story you unlock access to another planet and the "tier 2" weapons, and the previous planet and weapons become obsolete and you don't have any reason to go back to it, afterwards you unlock the 3rd planet and "tier 3" weapons, and so on.
I guess that's their answer to the level scaling problem, instead of giving you access to everything with level scaling, they progressively unlock the higher level zones
