    I don't mean to sound mean or dismissive, but... I feel like I'm the only one who played the first Outer Worlds. It just feels like it's one of those things that was supposed to be a thing, but wasn't a thing. Don't get it twisted, I'm not complaining that they're making a sequel. I'm relieved and hope it does better, I just remember more people complaining about Outer Worlds than talking about it. So I'm hoping this second chance for the franchise really helps it get off the ground (Unless it was a big hit and I'm just badly misinformed about how well it did) But that 80 dollar price tag? Lemme tell you that's not a consumer friendly choice, that's Spacer's Choice.

    I played it in the hospital waiting for my wife to go into labor haha. I'm pretty sure that's the only reason I remember it. I tried to replay it recently and made it about halfway through before moving on. I ain't paying $80 for it and there's no game pass on Linux. Guess I'm waiting for a sale. 🤷

      I also found it underwhelming which is a shame because I generally love Obsidian RPGs. They did a much better job with Avowed recently in my opinion.

                Do you live somewhere where it's still illegal or something? Because I used to pay like $40-60 for an eighth depending on how good it was before legalization and now I can pay like $6 for an eight of mids or $15-20 for some good shit.

                No I im in a place where it is legal. I paid $45-60 for high grade in the 1990s in NJ and that’s the same price it is now. The higher grade stuff just got consistently better.

                      Outer worlds just felt so uninteresting to me. I played it, and it was a forgettable experience imo

                          No thanks. The first was not good enough to warrant buying the second at $60, let alone $80.

                            Parvati was the only light in the darkness for me. I love her and her quest line, and hope there's more good ace rep like her in other media. I stopped playing the game as soon as I finished her quest line because I was bored with everything else =\

                              I was interested in Outer Worlds and No Man's Sky around the same time and played OW first. I enjoyed it while I played it and completed the story of the main game. Then I played NMS and enjoyed that a lot too but when I went back to OW for the DLCs I got bored quickly. Outer Worlds just seemed less fun after No Man's Sky.

                                People are struggling to buy groceries. CEO: Let's raise the price of a good people don't need because money. I can only hope this move backfires spectacularly.

                                  It's The Outer Worlds. It will. The first game was shit. The game it was confused with became the greatest game ever made. Go buy that one instead.

                                      From what I've heard of the plot of that game, this is kind of apropos.

                                          No man's sky is not anywhere near the greatest game ever made. Id honestly take outer wilds over either game being discussed. Outer wilds has a charm that's impossible for a AAA studio to match, and it's a solid gravity sandbox besides that. The NMS game loop is just trying to make number go up as efficiently as possible for nanites and credits. It's not *fun*. It is and always has been a grind.
