The Outer Worlds Reviews
In conclusion, The Outer Worlds was a terrific experience. I loved every moment I was playing of the game and I felt like this alien frontier I had landed on, was not too dissimilar from the Wild West.
The Outer Worlds is exactly the game we were waiting for all these years, it captures the essence of RPG so well, and reminds us why Fallout: New Vegas is so loved even to this day.

The Outer Worlds is, in a word, breathtaking. The world is amazingly detailed, the script is full of humor and there's plenty to enjoy in the character development department. The truly important choices and consequences make The Outer Worlds one of the best RPGs of 2019.

The Outer Worlds is the confirmation that the players disappointed by the latest Fallout were looking for. Obsidian proves he knows how to make a good RPG without necessarily having to twist the cards on the table thanks to a title that takes us back to nine years ago, when we explored the Mojave of New Vegas. We are certainly not talking about the definitive game, but we can not help but advise all lovers of the genre (and not) to have a picnic for Alcione.

The Outer Worlds is the spiritual successor to Fallout New Vegas, and Obsidian made every effort to upgrade it in almost every aspect. The final result is a solid RPG that must be played by any fan of the genre.

Although a crazy YouTuber has apparently completed this game in 25-minutes by just running, to really enjoy the atmosphere and gameplay, it will take around 30 hours to successfully complete that will allow you to not only immerse yourself in it but enjoy it. The game also gives you a nice recap at the end that serves as motivation for another play in order to see different endings.
The Outer Worlds ticks all the right action RPG boxes. Upgrades, skills, levelling-up, decent combat etc. However, some elements rest on the generic side, which is not a bad thing here. The Outer Worlds ultimately is a fun game to play with its dark humour which is neat to mess around with given the options available. That said, it is familiar territory done-right and wrapped-up in an eye-catching lick-of-colourful paint.
with The Outer Worlds, Obsidian Entertainment shows everyone how great they are in making RPG games. The Outer Worlds may not be the longest RPG, but still has some memorable quests and perfectly designed loot system and storytelling.

The Outer Worlds has a load of mechanics put into place, and while they are functional, they aren’t cohesive. They were implemented with little regard for how they would interact with each other and the game is a mess because of it. They had to make it so a player could complete the game no matter how they built their character. Obsidian succeeded, but only by making those choices matter very little in the first place.
The Outer Worlds is a goofy, full to the brim RPG that liberally samples from other giants in the genre. It's a fun romp through a neon universe.
Having the game take place in space opens up the future of the franchise to a wealth of sequels. If Obsidian plays its cards right, we might be witnessing the birth of a great franchise. There is no doubt The Outer Worlds is almost a masterpiece. Sure, it could use some work here and there, but it's a perfect delivery system for the hungry human imagination that longs for the stars.
Simply put, The Outer Worlds is an outstanding space adventure. Obsidian has done an exceptional job of incorporating the system's found in their other highly acclaimed project, Fallout: New Vegas, and using them in a brand new venture. With only a tiny amount of issues to plague the experience, The Outer Worlds excels at in every other aspect. Taking players on a trip where corporations rule everything and you decide the fate of thousands of people.
The game is so zany and so mired in its traditional progression systems that it ceases to say anything of note.
The Outer Worlds succeeds as a contemporary realization of Obsidian’s classic RPG formula. It’s an experience in which player agency takes center stage, therefore, it carries plenty of replay value. However, it’s best played by focusing on its core strengths, taking the passive approach, and leaving combat as the last resort.
The Outer Worlds (TOW) is an RPG shooting game where the story REALLY matters. Half of the game you are shooting and the other half talking to NPCs to make moral decisions. Actually, forget that... There is no RIGHT or WRONG way to play TOW. You can do anything, kill anyone. You can do zero talking and shoot everyone at sight or be diplomatic and try to complete the game with zero kills. It's all up to you! To add more variables to the complexity of the “FREE WILL", the game has companions, an entire RPG module (attributes, aptitudes, skills, and perks) and a variety of armors, weapons, mods, and items. All of which, when well combined makes every choice easier.
The Outer Worlds is a classic case of a missed opportunity. There are so many things it does right, and so many others that feel unrealistic, or simply don't feel balanced.
The Outer Worlds is an interesting role-playing game that is designed for fans of smart dialogues and nonlinearity. If you are one of them, you can safely try the game. However, Obsidian again lacked a budget, which by the end of the narrative becomes all too obvious.

Amidst the ongoing PR fiasco of Fallout 76 and Bioware's disastrous looter-shooter Anthem, The Outer Worlds could not have dropped at a more opportune time. Acting as the spiritual successor to Fallout: New Vegas, The Outer Worlds is a reasonably polished, refreshing roleplaying title that puts story and dialogue at its forefront in favour of robust gameplay and mechanics. It's a timely reminder of how good these RPGs can be when you focus on creating a good game rather than a polished monetised model and the result is something that immediately feels familiar and enjoyable to anyone who's played Obsidian's previous games.
A compelling and well-written RPG --a pure Obsidian experience, and a true joy to role playing fans.

The Outer Worlds is a creative, fresh and deep game and another successful title in Obsidian Entertainment resume. It's the embodiment of almost everything we wanted to see, from the multi layer story, to the satisfying and exciting combat. The Outer Worlds is a must-buy for any action RPG fan out there.
