The editors didn't like
Combat and exploration are rote
Secondary characters feel thin and disposable
Generic
Small environments (save for Monarch) hinder immersion and the thrill of exploring alien worlds
Subpar graphics and performance
Mediocre AI
Both in combat and out
Enemy encounters are a cakewalk on regular difficulty
And won't push you to make the most of the game's various systems
Inventory menus can be difficult to parse
Player choices don't have much effect
Toothless
Uncompelling story
Frequently defaults to mediocre combat over other roleplaying options

Smart satirical storytelling and worldbuilding, Solid FPS gameplay but RPG depth first and foremost, High replayable with lots of different outcomes and ways to play
Uneven pacing, Halcyon isn't as big as you're led to believe
The formula doesn't stray too far from Fallout but it also has decent gunplay and intelligent satire in its setting to make it the thinking man's Borderlands. In The Outer Worlds, Obsidian has created a rich and fascinating universe with an abundance of...

Abstract: With this in mind, we've compiled a rundown of the most exciting games that are set to launch in the next twelve months. This is a PC only list, so if it's not coming out on the old Big Rectangle, you definitely won't see it on this list. We've also focus...

Abstract: It’s 2019! The year of Blade Runner, The Running Man, and other running-related dystopias. Here at bit-tech, though, we don’t like to talk about running, unless it refers to running the latest games...
Abstract: It's not really a mystery, of course – more like an extended series of quests to find the journal of the facility's lead scientist, at which point the shadowy figure who dogs you the whole way reveals themselves without any actual sleuthing on your part...
Abstract: You just found a targeting module from a crashed spaceship. You have the choice of either giving it to a pro mega-corporation faction or a rebel faction. Your choice will mean the death of one of the factions.This dilemma of choices is a constant theme...
Fantastic writing, Interesting story, Vast, dense and colourful environments, Tons of freedom of choice, Companions are interesting, Strong voice acting
There are a couple bugs and glitches here and there, Combat is lackluster
You could finish this game in 20-odd hours. You could also finish it in 60, if you really want to see everything this game has to offer. I highly suggest the latter. Pick this game up and really take your time with it. Explore every nook and cranny you ca...
Como veis, la comparación con Fallout, especialmente New Vegas, es inevitable. Obsidian luchaba su propia obra, muy bien considerada aunque no exenta de fallos: Recordemos que su lanzamiento fue cuanto menos accidentado.En esta ocasión la historia se repi...

Visuellement en retard, Allers-retours et temps de chargement, Combats parfois mous, Un peu simple à la longue, Pas de multi, IA à la ramasse
