The Outer Worlds, an RPG by Obsidian, is out in 13 days. Who else is hyped?
- Thread starter Proven
- Start date
It's the last Obsidian RPG I'll ever play unless Game Pass comes to a Nintendo console, so yeah, I'm fuckin' hyped. Alpha Protocol, KotOR II, Fallout: New FUCKING KING SIZED Vegas...yeah, I'm ready.
I'm fine with multiple open areas. Hope the game takes off and the sequel gets a bigger budget.

I'm actually starting to look forward to the game purely and solely based on the interview with 2 Obsidian devs on Podcast Unlocked. Give it a listen if you haven't, it's good.
I'm going in not hearing anything about this game just seeing video and it looks awesome,but is it open world like new Vegas?
I bet I'll end up spending 50+ hours to finish the game.
I always take my time exploring everything and talking with everyone. I also never skip the dialogue, especially if it's fully voiced.
Face to face dialogue interface like this is my favorite in RPG. I even installed a mod to make Skyrim has this kind of dialogue.

I was pretty hyped for it, I like quite a few of Obsidian's games so their involvement alone was enough to get me going , but every video I've watched for it makes it look duller and duller.
Combat in particular looks so perfunctory that I question why they even made it a shooter at all.

I was day 1 when it was first announced based on Tim an Leon's names alone, but all the gameplay footage looks just really underwhelming so my hype has kind of subsided. I will still test it out in gamepass, but I will probably wait for real playthrough when all DLCs are out and it launches on steam. I hope it is better than it looks.
But it didn't need to be a first-person shooter or, uh, whacker at all. The very idea that it had to be either of those things(or both, as it is) is just so deflating, especially when you see the outcome and not only does the combat look like the worst type of "Been there, done that" but it also doesn't even look like a good execution of it.
Yeah, thankfully I think combat is not forced - maybe just couple times. At least I hope so cause I just wanna be talking to folks.
Because it's a RPG and they have to give freedom to the player to play like the way: a smooth talker, a gunslinger, a cyber ninja, etc. So unlike other genres, they have to cover lots of ground in what the game entails, and yes, that means worse execution in some of the areas than a game focused only on story, or only on melee combat or in FPS combat.
yup and its also clearly a AA game, it doesnt have a massive budget.
Yeah i am, pre ordered it and looking forward to playing it, i got the New Vegas vibe from the 20 min video and i loved that game.
hope it will sell well, though being on games pass should help with atleast player counts.
So I finally caved in and watched the available gameplay/character customization from different outlets. I have to say this is quite a lot better than I expected. I mean, I was already excited to play this, but now I'm in full can't-wait mode.
I really want to see how far I can get without killing any named NPC. I want to focus on a medic/charm build.

Hype feels non-existent for me, but I am looking forward to playing it. It's just an insanely busy time of year for games.
I'm looking forward to it, Haven't decided on which platform to play yet - PC or PS4. I don't have problems with Epic Store, just not sure if my PC could handle the game at stable frame rate without looking like a potato. At least it doesn't look that demanding from visual and tech perspective?
I have so much on my plate right now but I'll put it all aside for this one. Fallout 1&2 and VTMB are on the short list of my all time favorite games so of course I've really been looking forward to Outer Worlds. I'll be playing it on PC Game Pass day one and maybe a Steam purchase eventually.
Aside for the EGS betrayal that soured me a bit on the title, I have to say that every recent showing of the game played its part in deflating the hype.
A one hour quick look lol. I only watched 10 mins but what I did see was a fetch quest with a robot
I'm on the fence. I worry that if I invest in this game, the Xbox-exclusive sequel will be something I can't play because I don't intend on investing in that ecosystem.
Yes game pass has me covered, I hope it's good enough to pull me away from Fallout but I doubt it.
