Outer Worlds games are very interesting to me but not for reasons you might think. When I am playing it, I'm having a blast. Even though the story, characters and overall writing kinda makes me want to shoot myself sometimes (I skimmed through most dialogue so fast I even got a perk for it), I still enjoy picking the dialogue options that pissed people off the most. The moment-to-moment gameplay and roleplay options are great and immersive. Roleplaying as a dumb psychopath with itchy trigger finger is a lot of fun. Combat is better this time around too, melee is a bit janky but shooting feels really good with decent amount of variety in weapon types.
But the thing with this game is that once I completed it, my brain is probably gonna flush everything out. Some fun memories might be spared but for everything else? Straight down the drain.
Oh well, at least it's better than Avowed. That game bored me to death I uninstalled it right after finishing the prologue. Maybe if I had not played that after KCD2 I could've gotten some enjoyment out of it.
