I have had a hard time with Outter Worlds, unfortunately.
After years of not playing any, I think I forgot how to play open games. I don’t know if I should go there, talk to this guy, etc.
The world is bonker and I had difficulty grasping some npcs (not sure if the vicar is a scientist, a HR handler, a rebel maybe ?) ((no spoil btw, I just talked to the guy one single time, it’s pure speculation))
Reading OCD rears its ugly head again, which breaks my heart when I think about Disco Elysium. I mean if OW gives me issues...
Rythm is bad, or was bad for me, depends on how you play. The city is not big but people like to talk their heads off. I still have to go out again.
Not always well explained, is the food water sleep mechanic just for the hard difficulty ?
Strange bastard of a game that is crpg but tries to simplify things a little too much, or I’m dumb. I don’t understand the link between a dialog skill at 2 and the stat involved, which is certainly not 2.
Overall I feel that I must persevere, I have to get used to open games again. And fuck my brain that tells me I don’t understand what I read, it’s not the case. Well, most of the time.
That being said it has potential, the world and characters could grow on me.
