I wanted to like this game...it's ok... Just feels...stretched like butter scraped over too much bread... there is something to this game but I can't put my finger on what.

Aug. 2025

I had a good time, however, I have to mention: I know Obsidian marketed this with "Hey guys, we made New Vegas. You LOVE New Vegas!" This is not New Vegas. I know I bounced off the game until I met the game at its level. I can't take the game super seriously, because it doesn't really take itself seriously. The DLCs stand out as well-made, fun, self-contained little stories. Argueably liked them better then the main game, imo. So if you're wanting a satire of American Prosperity Gospel and our obsession with capitalism and profits above all else, I'd say its worth it.

It's... fine, I guess? The Outer Worlds had potential, but man, it just didn’t stick the landing for me. The game feels weirdly short like, I just started getting invested in the world and then... roll credits? That’s it? Also, for an RPG, it's shockingly shallow in the role-playing department. No romance options?? C'mon. I’m out here trying to build deep relationships and the game just goes 'nah'. What kind of space adventure is this where I can't even flirt with anyone? Combat's alright. Companions are decent. The writing has some nice moments. But overall, it just didn’t give me enough reason to care. 6/10 space potatoes.

May 2025

"You've tried the best, now try the rest." kind of game. It's a pretty neat world. It's competent, but I don't get the urge to play it. I stopped playing because the level cap was kinda low and I couldn't make my dream build come true within the allotted number of levels. Apparently spacer's choice edition fixes that, but the saves don't carry over. I am very conflicted on whether to recommend it or not. I genuinely enjoyed some parts of this game (I played it on the steam deck), but I really have to dig deep to find something this game excels at. Best I can do is it has a neat concept, a very cool world, and well-written and interesting dialogue. It also has some neat RPG elements, decent gunplay, but the completionist in me was utterly defeated by the level cap. Anyways, give it a shot if it's on sale.

Nov. 2024

Overall decent game in pretty much all aspects, like a 6 /10. I'd only buy it on sale. If you try to do most sidequests, look around a lot for loot, and play the DLCs, then the game has a good amount of content. Took me about 55 hours for my 1st playthrough doing that. Story and characters are decent. The level cap sucks, you'll hit it fast. There's probably a mod to remove it but I was too lazy to install it. This game isn't like Fallout where you can just wonder off and find a bunch of cool locations. There are a few, but most locations are tied to quests. If you're a packrat there are loot crates all over the place though.
