Oof, beehaw only just gave me this notification.
I was disappointed in the exploration in outer worlds if i recall right, it felt closer to a bioware game like kotor than it did a bethesda game. Which is not inherently a bad thing, I like bioware games, just not as much as bethesda. This conversation does make me want to replay & reexplore this game, i recall loving how it looked visually.
I totally get that being a strong point for some, i however appreciate the complexity from things like starfield now having like 3 separate kinds of shotgun shells, not including all the other ammo.
I totally recommend Kingdom Come deliverance, it's one of my favorites. The map opens up a good bit after the intro, and given that fast travel is risky in the game it makes it feel even larger. Yeah, the cutscenes can get real long, but i was pleased with the story and the voice acting so i didnt mind too much, even if Henry can be a little dull at times.
Haha, I'm also not getting any notifications because my app doesn't support them yet xD Better late than never!
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.
Thanks for the rec! I've put it a bit higher on my backlog, after Disco Elysium and BG3. Great stuff ahead :)
