Which Linux distro are you using? I’m also considering switching because of Windows 10 going EOL, but there are a lot to choose from.

Besides what Citizen Kong said, I wouldn’t start playing a game right after release. Give them a few weeks to iron out the bugs.

Yeah, that’s true.

StarCraft 2. No friends, only ladder. Get him practicing now and he’ll be winning RTS tournaments before he’s 20 like Clem.

You have a crowbar.

Couldn’t they just have copied the locations a few times and changed up the doors and chests by hand? Seems like an easy fix.

For the record I would like more games like this one. I am the target audience for this game, I enjoy it, and if more devs made games like it I would be happy.

That’s interesting. My personal impression was that, since the success of GTA3 and Skyrim, basically every AAA title has to be some kind of open world sandbox game with as many features as possible. Personally, I really dislike that; I want a tight narrative and strong core gameplay, and I couldn’t care less for stuff like crafting and base building. (I’m also a bit saddened by the way Bethesda took Fallout 4 and Fallout 76 in. I want to play RPGs, not looter shooters.)

Some studios, like Larian and Obsidian, are still making these games, so I’m happy with that. I really enjoyed Outer Worlds, even though people were criticizing it for being too confined (or maybe especially because it was confined). I’m hoping to get around to BG3 and DOS2 soon. But it feels like we’ve had a drought for more than a decade.

So anyway, I found it surprising to read that you feel there aren’t enough Bethesda-like games, because it feels to me like everyone is copying them. Of course, they are masters of their craft, so maybe the problem is that other studios just aren’t any good at it :P

What were your favorite parts of outer worlds if i can ask?

My usual way of playing RPGs is exploring the whole map, picking up every side quest I can find, and then doing them in an order that feels logical. Outer Worlds made that really rewarding: it’s actually possible to feel like you’ve covered the whole map and and all the content is interesting and fun.

Also, the story and the characters are great, and the game mechanics don’t get in the way (like how there are only three types of ammo and just no lockpicking minigame).

I think I liked the companion quests the most, because they really flesh out their characters.

The DLCs do turn into a bit of a slog near the end, when you’re just running through corridors shooting at stuff. But afterwards, your companions will want to talk about all the horrors they experienced, so at least you can share that feeling with them :P

It’s funny you say that, cause I feel like no one else is doing what they do, atleast to the same caliber. We discussed outer worlds, other than that the only similar game I’ve really enjoyed was Kingdom Come Deliverance. That game is great, but it is pretty different, and doesn’t hold the same replay value.

Kingdom Come: Deliverance is still on my backlog :) I started a playthrough a few years back, but the cut scenes were so long that real life kept getting in the way :P I only got to the castle after you flee from your village. Does it open up a lot after that?

Oof, beehaw only just gave me this notification.

Haha, I’m also not getting any notifications because my app doesn’t support them yet xD Better late than never!

it felt closer to a bioware game like kotor than it did a bethesda game.

Now that you mention it, it does! I really liked the KotOR games, so that’s probably why Outer Worlds clicked as much for me as it did. I did try replaying KotOR a while ago, but I was bothered by how old it felt. I’ve never finished Mass Effect though, so maybe I should. And Dragon Age: Origins is said to be the last “real” Bioware RPG, so that’s also interesting.

It’s just too bad those games are all so old. I’m currently playing Fallout: New Vegas because I’d never finished it and I’m trying to get into a habit of actually finishing games, but the transition back from OW to FNV was quite a shock. It’s not just graphics; older UIs can be really bad. I tried getting back into a game of Fallout 1, but it felt like just playing the game cost way too much effort.

I totally recommend Kingdom Come deliverance, it’s one of my favorites.

Thanks for the rec! I’ve put it a bit higher on my backlog, after Disco Elysium and BG3. Great stuff ahead :)

The creator of Procession to Calvary has two more games out which are equally funny, The Preposterous Awesomeness of Everything and Four Last Things.

PC Gamer shows clearly who wrote the article, and generally they’ll be clear about what subjective reasons they had for their final verdict.

Personally, I feel they are prone to buying into marketing hype, but at least you can tell when that is the case.

Yeah, scrounging gaming websites to find the right patch files could be a real pain in the ass, especially before Google.

It’s a sad state that we can’t just pay for a completed game and avoid any microtransaction bs in game while playing.

Well, you can still do that. Just play other games; there are more than enough around to fill a lifetime.

Personally, my experience is that games where everybody is obsessed with cosmetics aren’t that fun to begin with.
