The Outer Worlds announced (Obsidian, FPS RPG, XB1/PS4/Steam 2019)
- Thread starter vestan
- Start date
So glad this is coming to PS4. Space Fallout made by the team behind New Vegas is a dream come true. This looks fantastic.
That looks like the character has a colorful way of talking or it's dialect. "You're really free with that tongue of yours." Might make more sense hearing him say it.
This game will attain legendary status if you can complete it without discharging any weapon and just skill checks every motherfucker you come across.
Oh, its going to be a mess but a beautiful one design/gameplaywise.
MS/Obsidian own the ip. The whole appeal of the Private Division is that developers get to own their ip.
This deal was made before the MS acquisition, but obsidian/MS own the IP
But the MS deal has not been made official? I can't find anything other than it's sure to happen.
The game was likely already planned for PS4, much like how We Happy Few went down. Future titles are likely to be Xbox/Windows exclusive. Unless Nintendo and Sony want Game Pass on their systems.
Like I said earlier, this makes good business sense since this generation is coming to a close and now they get PS4 sales. This game does good and hopefully future titles will try and get Playstation fans to cross over.
It was announced at the XO event just a few weeks ago.
no i wanted to post it in the VGA thread but i has the wrong topic open. thats why i edited it
For all the game is doing right, that's... severely disappointing. What's the point of customizing a character if I can't switch to third person?
This looks amazing. Trying to cut down on the amount of games I buy, but I'll definitely be getting this.
Its going to be New Vegas all over again at launch.
Everyone will be complaining and then in a few years asking for a sequel.
Seems more like a mistake and should be pretty instead of powerful to me. Either way, this game looks aces and I'm super hyped that it exists.
Pacifist was my first playthrough on launch of New Vegas. Obsidian made a shooter where you did not have to kill anyone (and yes that includes having follower npcs kill for you, im talking total peacemaker pacifist). i have faith in Cain, Boyarsky, and Obsidian that i will be able to do that with The Outer Worlds.
Until we get to see more of what's actually under the hood, not sold on it being an "RPG" like Fallout, or an RPG at all. Just having a three branch dialogue tree doesn't make it one. Probably going to get it regardless though, since I'm not against another Borderlands.
No, it sounds right. Imagine it being said with a Wild Western twang.
It's literally being branded as an RPG in the press materials. You could choose to disbelieve it, but why would you?
Also on the Steam page: mention of companions that join your crew, which sound an awful like an RPG mechanic...
Powerful as a stereotypical cowboy colloquialism, one you'll hear a lot in old westerns. Powerful meaning very or in this case awfully. "That's powerful good moonshine" etc.
I don't think it could be anymore clearer that this is their spiritual successor to New Vegas.
