Great review Bloodworth!

Thanks a lot for this review, Bloodworth. I'm playing the game atm and it's truly great. It reminds me a lot of Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas. For anyone slightly interested in a very immersive RPG with great story, characters, weapons and comnbat, I highly recommend The Outer Worlds. Now to try and convince Brandon, Ben, Huber, Brad, Damiani and Kyle to play it before GOTY discussions.

Such a great review Blood! I have been looking forward to this game since they announced it and this review only confirms my excitement!

Probably the best reviews I've seen this year from EZA. Very well done Blood !

Great review, I just started playing and I'm really enjoying the dialogue. I'm loving how people talk, reminds me of firefly. The only thing I'm missing is a way to holster my gun, for role-playing reasons.

To anyone playing TOW, Mark van Dijken's post reminded me that there are a few things that people may not know, from tips and off the main path secrets. No spoilers. If you hold the change weapon button, it slows down time and brings up a weapon wheel for you to select your weapon instead of cyclying one by one through all of them. After you fix your ship, go to your quarters directly above AAD's station and read the messages, you get around 25.000 XP for free. Also check the Robot in one of the crew quarters, it gives a quest. After you leave the first world, you should go visit Phineas' Secret Lab for a great goodie and some more XP. The difference between Light, Medium and Heavy armor is that Heavy gives more protection, but with few or no bonus skill. Light gives a lot of bonus skill(s), but has the least protection. Medium strikes a balance between defense and bonus skill(s). Additionally for armors, you can use certain ones for the bonus skill(s) you want, and if you are going to go to combat or gets caught by surprise, just change to a heavy armor with more defense. Strafing right and left is great for avoiding ranged shots, while going backwards is great to avoid melee attackers. Don't be preocupied with enemies levels, some have a lot of health, but the TTD (Tactical Time Dilation) is really powerful, as well as sneaking. Sneaking + TTD + first shot to the head/weak spot deals a lot of damage. You can also use TTD to slow down time and sneak attack an enemy, even if he does not die on the first hit, as long as you keep attacking and kill him before TTD ends, he won't alert other enemies. Only works with silent weapons, like melee weapons and weapons with the mod to make them less noisy - there's no mod or ranged weapon that's completely silent, but stealth is already OP as it is. Using ranged weapons with scopes, if you are a good distance away, save the game and try shooting at enemies in the head, if no one hears you, you're distant enough that they can't hear the gunfire. This makes it extremely easy to clear out locations. There's only one really hard enemy on the first world, it's one of those Mech Suits. They have a lot of health and very high defense, as well as dealing a lot of damage that can kill you in 2-3 seconds. However, there's only one place with them and you can get all the loot without ever fighting it, just kill the other enemies. Or you can kill it after it's alone with very powerful weapons by Sneak + TTD + Weak spot, then use TTD to lower the health further, kill it or run away if you don't believe you can kill it before it kills you. Wait for TTD to recharge, then either attack him and kill him, or wait for him to stop looking for you and do the Sneak + TTD + Weak spot combo again. It gives a lot of XP. Enemies do respawn after a while has passed, this is great since you can kill them for more XP and loot. Start the game on Hard or if you have started on another difficulty, I highly recommend to put on Hard. Even on Hard the game is still very easy. Plus you can change the difficulty at any time with no consequences. For those playing on PC, there's a lot of mods on Nexus: https://www.nexusmods.com/theouterworlds/mods/ which range from increasing the framerate, removing Chromatic Aberration, Reshade filters - some make the game look even bettter like "Neutral LUT", and removing one, many or all of the restrictions of Supernova difficulty - like permanent death to companions. If you want to get a very OP weapon - though you may do it just to get XP and not use it, go to Grounbreaker, talk with Gladys and buy "battered Mardet datapad". Just follow it to find it. This is very OP and quite possibly the best weapon in the game. So really think about using it, even on Hard the game is still easy - at least on the first world. There's much more tips, but there's a lot of sites with plenty of them, just Google search for "The Outer Worlds Tips" and you get a lot of results. I hope these tips help.

Great review. Serious GOTY contender here. At least deserves to be in some of the discussions. It’s really THAT good. Bye bye Fallout.
