The Outer Worlds 2

I've finally completed Autistic World 2, and considering I didn't know any details about the plot or anything else beforehand, and played under the impression of the first game, I can say that the sequel is overall a success. Although there were some things I didn't like about the game.

But let's start with the good stuff. The overall plot is pretty good. I can't say whether it's better or worse than the first game, it's just different, quite large-scale, serious, revealing interesting details of the lore, and definitely laying the groundwork for future installments, which will obviously never happen thanks to the idiots at Microsoft.

I liked the first Outer Worlds, and the second didn't disappoint!

A good, unconventional plot with lots of subplots.

Gets addictive over time. I'm not a fan of the realistic difficulty; I prefer to follow the story.

This one really made me want to play through each character!

Overall, a good adventure with a varied plot!

The Outer Worlds 2 was a disappointment for me. I expected much more from Obsidian, especially after their previous RPGs, where the strengths were the characters, dialogue, and freedom of choice.

Ultimately, the game failed to captivate me as I hoped. It had great potential, but I missed that Obsidian magic you expect from their projects.

It's practically a carbon copy of the first game, essentially a secondary self-replication/self-copying. The only originality is that it's a game about corporations, released by a corporation—one that mocks the existence of corporations and at a corporate price. And their statement is completely ridiculous, something like:

"According to Britsch, the studio is 'betting big' on The Outer Worlds 2, but isn't aiming to become a typical AAA team."

"Morgan added that he's inspired by the success of the Souls series and Baldur's Gate 3, but doesn't want to chase scale for the sake of mass appeal."

The game is simpler than its predecessor. It's also no longer possible to upgrade weapons directly without modifications. But all in all, it's quite straightforward, with plenty of options.

I highly recommend it.
