The Outer Worlds announced (Obsidian, FPS RPG, XB1/PS4/Steam 2019)
- Thread starter vestan
- Start date
One year ago when this project was first announced, this is what it was announced as:
he's so good at being baaaaaad
also, now starting the petition to promote Scout Harding to full party member. plz bio
...
anyways Obsidian are making a new game with a big dialogue system and spaceships and companions and uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I want it now?
Why is that, because the rest will be Xbox/PC exclusives?
Pretty sure many are going to still want a new RPG a few years after both of these have been out. It just needs to not be Fallout 76 in space.
hnnngggggggggggg
The production values look great for a 'AA' game, but I do wonder how the budget will impact the scope of the game.
I also don't love the hammy-ness level of the humor. The original Fallout was dark with a sprinkling of absurdist humor, not the other way around. Hopefully they're playing up the humor for the trailer but the game itself will have more of an emotional range.

Looking forward to it. Would have preferred a more sci-fi tone to their space game, but western would have been my second choice.
After first ME and DAO, the rest were barely RPGs. Some were good games (ME2) but overall, Obsidian got better at dialogue/skills/etc... vs late Bioware.
Forgive the internet. We're still in the Fallout 76 hyperbolic blast radius.
Looks cool from a design standpoint, but I don't think I could play this without some kind of chromatic aberration switch. Those screens alone are hurting my eyes.
I mean, it looks a better - visually - than Fallout 4, and that was definitely a AAA game in - sorta, let's not get into it - the same genre.
Super hyped for this game. I loved new vegas and i'm excited to see what obsidian can do with this.
Haha. Yeah, I don't know. I'm a huge space opera/adventure diehard, but this... I don't know, kitsch? Yeah. Kitsch is the word for it, I guess. (I'm exhausted. lol) But yeah, the kitsch, the intentional cheekiness of sorts, it's never really my scene.
Like I said, though. I'm still there Day 1! I have absolute confidence I'll dig it anyway.
Yes! Absolutely what I am waiting for.
Yeah, that I can agree with. I hope the Borderlands-like, in-your-face humor will not be the main vibe from the final product and it's mostly there for promotional purpose.
No 3rd person is a deal breaker for me unfortunately. Not sure whats the point of forced 1st person.
Fuck off Bethesda, the RPG king is back. You and your shitty RPG design can kiss my ass goodbye.
My goodness, I have seen the trailer 10 times by now. I like it more each time.
I can see the obvious influences of Fallout and Borderlands, but I also get a KOTOR vibe from the spaceships and what looks like travel cutscenes.
Can't believe this is coming next year. Microsoft are going to have an amazing E3.
Hopefully Obsidian's second team and inXile's teams follow up with really dope RPGs as well, with Playground's take on Fable to mix things up.
