I buy more games than I should and Outer Worlds 2 is a game that should appeal to me. But Obsidian insists on chasing the modern audience so I insist on not buying.

I think this would have surpassed avowed if there wasn't so much to play right now. Whole year has been packed but Avowed released in a less crowded time.

Exactly what I love my man Kacho most - the unapologetic alpha male aura, lol.

I might check it out in the future. I won't be dying on the hill of playing ugly characters, but I just can't stand any single bits of cringy writings, I've no ideas if TOW 2 is the case.

I'm sure the gameplay is fine. The RPG depth I'm unclear on.

Every time I pull up gameplay there's some unlikable woman yapping about something. That's just not what I'm into and I refuse to subject myself to it. I've seen enough to know I'd be annoyed more often than not, just like the first game.

Disagree with me, call me stupid, call me simple. I don't give a single fuck. I'm not bending the knee.

I'm 3 hours in and I'm pretty much done for reasons already outlined in this thread. If this wasn't on gamepass there is no chance I would have checked it out

Like you said there is so much out there. Games that are perfectly tailored for what I'm looking for. I'll let the "modern audience" support this one.

I totally understand. What I value most in a RPG most are good characters and mature writings (JRPGs is different story obviously, lol, but the ones I love all have great characters). That's why I go all in to support games like KCD2 and Witcher.

BG3 is definitely modernized with those progressive stuff, but the characters and writings are good enough for me to keep engaged. That why I probably will give TOW 2 a shot in the future, but with Expedition 33, trails in the sky 1st, and Oblivion remaster still in backlog, it's gonna be a long while, lol.
