This was a perfectly adequate game. It didn't do anything groundbreaking or change the formula but it wasn't horrible either and tbh that's what we need. In a time where every video game needs to either be a massive blockbuster title or a small humble indie (that still breaks records), The Outer Worlds fills in that gap—the not quite megasuccess triple a but they actually have a budget.

And I didn't know how much I missed these kinds of games until I finished The Outer Worlds. There's a huge lack of them now, if you have a budget you automatically must be a groundbreaking AAA or gamers without a brain will descend upon you for producing a game that's just good.

Aside from that, I did find the jokes and the aesthetics to be a bit much after awhile. Don't get me wrong it's very funny but at some point, it became cartoonish.
