Multiplat Official Star Wars Outlaws Discussion

[Flower2dPeople]

People have been out for this game since it was announced. Don’t play dumb.

Seems like another case of, people who are playing it are largely enjoying it, people who were mad about it before it even released are the most vocal about how much it sucks.

I'm not a huge fan of the character's appearance (I think it's the hair) but yeah.... this game has been getting shit on for months prior to release. People were posting gifs of her knocking out a stormtrooper and crying how a wahmen shouldn't be able to do that. Absolutely ridiculous. Nobody would care about shit like this in the past but the culture war has to be inserted into everything these days to satisfy the endless hunger of the incel crowd. It also doesn't help that this game is releasing near Assassin's Creed Shadows that's also been part of a vicious hate campaign.

I'm really beginning to hate the internet. Maybe it's just nostalgia but I remember it being a much more positive experience. Nowadays it seems like it's become a hive mind and there is no room for nuance with anything. Every game is either GOTY quality or absolute woke trash. Also real shame to see Asmongold sell out to the anitwoke crowd. He was once much more nuanced with his thoughts and at one time I liked some of his videos. Now its just reactionary garbage.

Why is a reactionary take automatically garbage? that is the thinking of 9 year olds.

It's not winning game of the year but
I'm enjoying the game. I dont mind playing as Kay. It's pretty repetitive but the story and environments keep me going. I did like Starfield more though

The environments/locations look good. Are there fun activities to do? I wish they let us make our own character and choose the gender. Any Star Wars fan has always wanted to play a smuggler in a sandbox that didn't feel like a lifeless MMO. I have loads of great memories playing Galaxies and KOTOR online, but they never felt like a lived in universe.

As much as I despise the Disney trilogy, I still love the universe before it. Looks like a big discount buy down the road, especially once a few patches tighten things up and a mod can replace the character model.

The game looks like ass. I ain't exactly alt-right lol nor do you need to be to call a spade a spade. I've looked into it, it's glitchy, generic, janky, dialogue is trash, stealth is trash, action looks... okay? Open world that looks bland without much interesting to do, looks like a worse version of GTA V in that regard. It looks like the definition of mid at best.

Harrrrd pass

You mean SWTOR?

It's the culture now where people think if you shit on a game you must have an agenda, when in fact with games like this, Concord, Suicide Squad, and many more, people with a couple of brain cells can tell way before the game is released that it'll be ass.

People are waking up and calling out shitty devs on their shitty attempts at making games.

Yikes.

77 / 70% on Open Critic, and expect this to drop a bit as time rolls on as is the norm with any game. Probably going to settle in with games like Atomic Heart or Immortals of Aveum.

Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order Reviews

Critics adore Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order for its deep combat experience that plays like a somewhat more forgiving Dark Souls. Add to that interesting traversal mechanics and lots of secrets...

Eurogamer gave it a 2 out of 5, LMAO.

Star Wars Outlaws review - stripped-back Ubisoft formula is admirable yet doomed

Eurogamer's review of Star Wars Outlaws, a game which strips away a lot of Ubisoft open world clutter but in doing so, leaves too little left.

Give SW back to Respawn.

Not to many side activities. A card game and races. If you want to play it, you can always do a monthof ubisoft plus. That's what I did.

Stock only dropped because of people with agendas, the game is actually great!

Great game it is. Gargle balls you must.

Great game it is. Gurgle balls you must.

KOTOR, precious place in the library it has.Rethink your approach you must.

ha! I meant it as a joke about woke SW fans needing this game to be considered good by others. It's obviously not a very good game from all the videos and reviews I have seen, from reviewers that I actually trust, agree with on most other games they have reviewed.

And KOTOR is 21 years old and still fantastic. Sad how we have a new game that is the tiniest fraction of the quality that a 21 year old game is.

 

[blaseblase]

The premise seemed cool but executed poorly. Type of game I might check out in a few months at a lower price point. I hope they fix not being able to carry weapons around, that's just stupid for this type of game.

 

[The Clark]

I watched a clip of this game, and there is a mechanic called "Fast Talker" or some such that lets you speak up and distract/confuse an enemy when they get the drop on you. I thought that was a slick idea and a perfect fit for a Han Solo-like character in this setting. But each time I saw her use it, she just said, "Uhhh...hey!" Then that made me sad, lol. Maybe it was just the clip I saw, but that would actually be awesome with a bunch of context-sensitive lines.
The other thought I had was that the cute little creature sidekick seemed to really miss the mark. I think that clashes with the scrappy rebel vibes, and a little droid could have fit better and served all the same gameplay roles.

why did they use Halo music?

 

[Bornstarch]

Can't wait til it goes on sale on Steam

 

[Nizam al-Mulk]

The western gaming marketplace achieved Soviet Economy levels of stupidity....

I have no idea how i will explain this to future generations.
