I recently finished playing The Outer Worlds 2 and it was pretty good. The big problem I have with both games is that the game mechanics feel a little shallow. Despite that I'm hoping there will be another game in the series.
There’s immense potential for character builds but almost no incentive to explore them. You feel the wasted potential as you play. The story is compelling enough to enjoy the experience but not enough to fill the empty pit you feel once you’re done. That’s how I feel about the first game. Does it apply to the second?
I didn’t say they needed to be big. The Elder Scrolls games aren’t particularly huge, yet people will continue to play saves for hundreds of hours.
And I know Outer Worlds wasn’t a massive open world, but there were different areas you could explore. Just a shame there wasn’t that much to explore in said areas.
