The Outer Worlds 2 - Official Companions Trailer (I'm sorry)

Same problem as the first game, but everyone tried to gaslight that they were actually good looking. Lmao... Woke the game. Obsidian is a shell of it's former self.
We will never see the greatness of Kotor2, Fallout nv, Alpha Protocol, Neverwinter Nights 2, Pillars of Eternity, out of them again. Pentiment was decent (from what I have played of it), but it was a smaller project so probably smaller team that weren't infected.
 
It's all "Im4GinArY"
You're calling me a deviant but can't write down what the "stuff" is that you're so angry about and so desperate to get out of your games.

I don't need to explain something you already declared imaginary. And you refuse to read the thread you're in. The very definition of trolling/bad faith. Seems like very deviant behavior to me.
You don't know the meaning of the words you use.
I imagine you're too embarrassed to write your views down in black and white.

There is nothing "chud" about not wanting to play as or with some zoomer 100/Quips per second disabled/queer/BIPOC/Ultra-Intersectional person in a first person action RPG. It's not appealing, and I guarantee the 90% male audience who ends up playing this doesn't want this as their power fantasy (I'm sorry).
 
50 year old whitest guys in the universe greybeards who locked themselves in resetera and Bluesky and threw away the keys. They'll keep doing this until their company's financial people finally stops them.

It's pretty embarrassing at this point, we'll just have to wait until they move on or retire.
It's always funny when older devs go woke. They've been making different games in the past, but suddenly that stopped being acceptable. Better to focus on woke messaging and discriminate your own race while you're at it.
 
Nah. Obsidian is NOT the same Obsidian that made Fallout New Vegas (or the even more awesome, Alpha Protocol).

This is just a corporate shell of a company at this point. They lost all of their edge.

(I will admit that their gameplay with Avvowed is much improved over any of their other offerings).

they haven't made a great RPG since PoEII
 
It's almost as if the world has changed.
Yeah the world has changed. Everyone drank the DEI Kool Aid 10 years ago, and now games/movies/etc are being made for some imaginary Modern Audience instead of their actual audience.

You really wanna double down on that "you guys are a bunch of CHUDS and incels, this wasn't made for you" stance? All I can say is good luck with that. It didn't work out so well for Veilguard, Avowed, Concord, Dustborn, Forspoken, Star Wars Acolyte, Suicide Squad KtJL, Snow White, The Marvels, Rings of Power, Ironheart, etc etc etc

We'll see, maybe the Modern Audience will show up this time!

Zoomers don't buy games, they play that strange fortnite shit, the money dudes panicked, the modern audience was coined and blindly chased, sadly, the zoomers still only play that strange fortnite shit, the core audiences were left hanging and even hated as the greedy money fucks got frustrated, they took out their frustration on their marketing and PR people, who in turn took out their anger on audiences directly, the schism happened, the rest is history.

Nah chances are he'll be the antagonist, but yeah I'm sure every nearly male NPC will be a helpless idiot.
He will be at least one of the following:

- meek soy dude who knows his place and takes orders from the girlboss in order to to make her look like a strong leader

- cocky, overconfident dimwit who constantly gets basic things wrong, so the girlboss gets to constantly scold and nag him

- gay guy who's smart, charming, and has no character flaws

- guy who betrays your party
 
Aside from the lame companions the game looks about two generations behind in just about everything.
Game is going to be the 1st Unreal 5 sci-fi RPG, and one of the first Unreal 5 sci-fi games in general. It's still a AA game so quality is uneven especially on character models and animation, but parts of it are going to look sick. Avowed had many graphical elements that were impressive, especially in the environmental design.

I mean graphically yeah some parts look good, particularly the environments and lighting. I was meaning more just the game itself, like the ideas and gameplay.

If we're just talking graphics though, the animations and character models do also look two generations behind though.
 
Horrible. I'm the absolute target audience of this game and this turned me off completely. How do they not even understand this?
They thought Gamepass audience = "Modern Audience". Turns out It was such a bad idea conceptually that it forced Xbox to buy Activision as woke insurance.

What's the "soy" stuff about?
I really don't get that
It's a type of milk that if you drink it your schlong falls off or something.

Jk, I think it's associated with increased estrogen production hence it's associated with weak males, the lack of 90s balls, metal and stoic flair is blamed on these weak men who appear to defend and create these modern audience chasing entertainment products.

The core of all of this is the disbelief that the modern audience exists. It's a money-bro term coined out of desperation because zoomers don't buy their shit. (They still don't buy their shit lol)

It's also a subtle critique of modern hyper capitalism you find in industries like gaming, it's expressed as an insult to "weak men" who whore their dignity and individuality out for corporations, blindly following and lecturing on fake rules and norms that just don't make sense to all those who don't worship material gain and live on planet Earth.

I plan to try and play this at some point.

As cringe as the marketing is, the visuals and gameplay look fantastic. The only reason I couldn't play the first game was due to motion sickness.

I hope the sequel disables all head Bob, motion blur, and lets me play at 90 FOV on console. Otherwise I'll never touch it.
