Which was the better game?

 

[grvg]

Neither

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

Ninja gaiden 4

 

[Sebastian1295]

Expedition 33. Playing it currently and it kicks ass.

 

[Mister Wolf]

Outer Worlds 2. Better story, better companions, more gameplay depth.

 

[Bridges]

Admittedly I haven't gotten around to The Outer Worlds 2, but I can still confidently say it's better than Avowed (which I did play to completion).

 

[Arachnid]

Go replay New Vegas with mods instead. May as well go enjoy their game they're trying to replicate.

Insane how they missed on both of those. Once upon a time, Avowed and Outer Worlds were my most hyped rpgs.

 

[Topher]

I enjoyed Avowed, but Outer Worlds 2 just did not click with me

 

[Punished Miku]

Avowed is like $34 on sale now. I really enjoyed it.

About to start OW2. I just finished part 1 a month ago so wanted to let it breathe a minute.

 

[Buggy Loop]

Still not done with Outer worlds 2, took a detour to Metroid Prime 4, but I prefer Avowed to be honest.

Outer worlds 2 is a much better RPG, Avowed is a much better action/exploration. Up to you what you fancy.

Avowed had the better combat. Outer Worlds 2 had the better story. If I ever replay one, it would he Avowed due to gameplay. I'd pick a different build and likely enjoy it. I can't say the same for a second Outer Worlds 2 replay.

 

[vaibhavpisal]

Both are close. But slight edge to Outer Worlds 2.

Gameplay / level design / visuals / exploration are better in Avowed. But they are not too far off in Outer Worlds either.

However, quest design, rpg elements, writing are quite a lot better in Outer Worlds 2.

Overall I think 1/2 a point on 0-10 scale separates them. Both are pretty different despite being from same dev.

 

[Reizo Ryuu]

I like them both.

 

[evanft]

Neither.

 

[Juza]

I haven't played Avowed yet, but Outer Worlds 2 is a solid RPG! Outer Worlds 1 felt like an attempt, but Outer Worlds 2 delivers a fully polished experience
I really enjoyed playing it.

[Miyazaki’s Slave]

Personally I thought the writing (or at least the satire/sarcasm) made outer worlds 2 more enjoyable for me.

Avowed mechanically was good but I don't care for the lore/story.

 

[damidu]

dull and duller

 

[RainblowDash]

Kingdom Come in Guys is better than those two

 

[Laptop1991]

Outer Worlds 2, i liked the 1st one, the 2nd is not much of an upgrade, just bigger areas but i will get it at a cheaper price, Avowed was a big downgrade for me on what i was expecting especially after the reveal trailer, the world and npc's are too static and lifeless and i didn't take to the art style.

 

[bryanee]

At the end of the third area on Avowed and I'm kinda getting bored of the gameplay loop. The writing isn't good enough to make up for that so I might drop it and try Outer World 2.

 

[Hollowpoint5557]

Avowed. Its exploration, movement, combat, and graphics are fantastic. Seriously slept on because of the Xbox tax. Outer Worlds 2 I dropped in less than an hour.
