Mr. Analog

From the writers of the original Fallout and the developers who worked on New Vegas comes a new comedy sci-fi RPG, check it out!

So ever since you posted this I have been following for info. The more I see about this game, the more hyped I am to try it.

AFAIK you can play a complete idiot, answering lines with dumb comments, and then the world will treat you like a moron!  This I want to try for the humour!

Yeah it's going to be more Fallout than Fallout apparently. I'm really looking forward to this one.

It's even going to have a VATS like system

I think it is more a slow time than VATS (not really a target area system), but yeah, slow time like VATS :D

Here's a dumb idea; Release The Outer Worlds exclusively through the Epic Store: https://www.pcgamer.com/the-outer-worlds-and-control-will-launch-on-the-epic-store-not-steam/

Screw that noise! Give me Steam or GoG!!

I play so many games from the Epic store now, doesn't bother me any. But I understand what you mean.

Well I played about 2h last night.  I like the narrative so far and the game play is fun.  I took advantage of the "you can kill everyone" right away, and had a great laugh at the game when someone caught me killing the first good NPCs in the game.  So far I'm enjoying it.

Well you can buy it for full price or you can get a XBox Games Pass subscription and get it plus other games for the sub per month.  Cancel the sub if you don't want it after the month.

Once I have a job I will buy it [emoji106][emoji41][emoji106]

I'm really looking forward to getting into it though

Oh my God I love this game, it's like Fallout: New Vegas on steroids. I feel like I could have done a dozen different things already and each would have lead down a viable path. I took the safe route mostly and sided with the town of Edgewater (no spoilers.) Parvati is so cute I think I may -in fact- die.

Some of the difficulty seems to spike in weird places, I'm not sure if it's because I'm dumping points into stuff like speech and engineering rather than combat but some fights are pretty easy while others are rock hard, I dun get it.

Either way I'm having fun with this, I suspect that I'm gonna put a lot of hours into this one, hell it's 11 PM already, I just couldn't stop playing!

New murder-mystery DLC! This video has the best theme tune (May in fact destroy your brain)
