I’ve heard really incredible things about this game, but it just finally came down to a reasonable price for all the DLC for me. Got the whole thing for 60 bucks.
This game has an incredible soundtrack to pair along with it. Even though it’s a shorter game, I rather enjoyed it. Also, the over-arching “anti-capitalism” and “anti-colonialization” themes are nice 👌
I love this game. People did expect New Vegas in space, but it isn’t that. It is closer to a “Choose Your Own Adventure” book than a normal space RPG.
I mean that the game benefits from replayability. The choices you make will affect story, interactions and choices. No, you cannot massively alter the story, but how your fit into the story can change wildly.
While on the surface, it is the same game, for me there are major difference in feel if you play as a pro-corporate stooge, an anarchist, etc. My favorite though is when you lower your intelligence down to nothing.
The game isn’t really big. It isn’t a sprawling space epic like Mass Effect or Starfield. Still, it is a well written and fun game.
I need to play this to see for myself what the game is like. A lot of people hated it for not being Skyrim. Others for not being New Vegas. I’ll simply have to play it!
Great game but I actually think suffered from the backdrop. I felt interested in almost none of the planets because you did not spend enough time with any of them and they never really had the deep exploration fun I want from a game like that. I spent almost a couple hundred hours with Fallout NV last summer and found infinitely more things of note than I did with OW which came out like a decade later. Good game but kind of fell short in the stuff I really want out of games like that. Some fantastic companions though. Like, some of the best I’ve ever had with me in a game.
Outer worlds was such a dissapointment for me tbh. It was simply mediocre despite coming from the studio that produced the best fallout game since the classic two.
I remember when this was first coming out I was feeling nervous thinking it’s what Starfield was going to be compared to. Only for Starfield to absolutely obliterate it without even needing to be some kind of masterpiece.
I’m a huge Bethesda/Bioware RPG fan and really tried to like this – but it didn’t click for me at all. I thought it was terribly boring and lost all interest halfway through. Come to think of it, I didn’t finish New Vegas either, something about this developer doesn’t sync with me.
Honestly was thinking about this game while playing Starfield and how much more interesting the personal stories are and character interactions were written in Outer Worlds.
Better game. Fight me.
Oh shit, this isn’t outer wilds
Nailed it

It’s not the best choiiiiiice
Welcome to space. What were you expecting?
It’s a dangerous place. Thank you for investing.
Go play outer wilds
thought this was a r/patientgamers post
Starfield is skyrim in space
Outer Worlds is fallout in space.
I enjoyed it. As you said it’s a bit shallow, but I thought the gameplay was pretty good. Definitely worth buying if it’s on sale.
Outer Star Field Citizen Wilds has been a blast so far.
Watch out for cow shit on your ship.
Your not far off my best explanation of it has been “Fallouter worlds”

This game sucks. Hated every minute of it. Writing was flat and the gunplay was boring.
My very original, hottest of takes.
Love that game
And you choose to play it on Switch? Handheld is convenient but I can’t stand that potato graphic. Anyway, have a fun play!
It’s such a good game. Enjoy it!
Everything I wanted in outer worlds, starfield actually gave me.
*The Outer No Man’s Skyfields*
Base game was…”okay”, nothing crazy but still fun to play thru, but the DLCs was fire.
I actually really liked Outer Worlds, but I was playing on a flight on Switch & the loading screens killed me.
The only drawback was it felt like an immersive RPG but they didn’t let me kiss my crew members like in Mass Effect or Fallout.

Nah, you are thinking of Elite Outer Field Citizen 3
Outer Worlds was diet Fallout. There was some good substance there but it all seemed a bit too watered down. I still enjoyed it however

I heard you can fly to Pluto or something? Sounds sick!
Hey. Don’t joke. This game is amazing 🙂

5/10 at best
Pick lowest intelligence and choose dumb convo options every time for the lulz
I just got this as well in the humble bundle.
Time to get ready for buying starfield in 2026.
Congratulations, Internet Explorer
Should have gotten Starfield. This game ain’t nothing special.
This was a fun game. Still want to play Starfield.

This is a great game. The world is incredibly realized.
Outer Worlds is my favourite game of all time!

No that’s *Outer Wilds* actually. You got the wrong one

Might be my favorite rpg ever
“We got Starfield at home!”
Honestly was thinking about this game while playing Starfield and how much more interesting the personal stories are and character interactions were written in Outer Worlds.
Absolutely love this game and honestly it’s pretty similar to Starfield in a way just a much much smaller scale which is sometimes a good thing
Its a great game.
Much better storytelling that Starfield.
It’s the better of the two, so good choice. Spacers choice.
I liked this game a lot
My condolences
