I gave most dps guns to my companions because they definitely shoots the targets better than I do.

[@FlyJonat]

Important : you can buy the pc version of this game on the windows store, not just epic's.

[@Scorix]

And it's included in the game pass so you can play for 1$

[@whereta3097]

Scorix just started my subscription today to preload the game. One freaking dollar, insane

[@DeathShouldTakeMeNow]

@@whereta3097 Thats my plan, play it on gamepass until they take it off then buy it on sale.

[@EvolvedSungod]

Damn, I wish I had known that. I just bought it on epic and am not a fan of their store or app

[@sachigame924]

Eugh, I'd rather just get it on Epic than mess with the window store. Say what you want about Epic, I know their exclusivity deals have been annoying, but as long as I can get the games I don't care, and I've gotten a fuck ton of free games from the Epic store without paying them a dime. Like, does anyone know Epic just gives away tons of games for free?

[@Grimjr7]

When it comes to the scrapping tip he gave you something I didn't hear him mention was if you do decide to go to a weapon bench you do get more scrap.

[@jasonporter5912]

Also worth noting that unless you're selling most of your weapons, it wont be long until you've scrapped enough that you won't need any more parts for a while

[@saintsaber8491]

I can confirm if you upgarde your weapons/armour it costs less at an workbench. Not sure about scrapping.

[@GoBIGclan]

So based on the replies to your comment I'm getting this: - You get more scrap by going to a bench. - BUT it doesn't take much scrapping before you don't need more anyway, so you might as well go ahead and just scrap on the spot without a bench to save time. - Always upgrade your weapons and armor at a workbench, though, because it costs less.

[@rivanlords1]

2:11 I really had the intense thought you were about to say "It just works..." Nice tip/review video, was going to buy it anyways but always like some confirmation I am going to make a good purchase.

[@LiveToRapRapToLive93]

I HAD THE SAME THOUGHT xD

[@victorylane2377]

Lol, it would've been very fitting.

[@diegobelingieri9959]

Frankly if you played Fallout and/or Mass Effect you'll feel right at home. It's very polished and player friendly. Even have modern day ammenities like respec (so no issue if you dislike your initial build).

[@grimsawwarpath8397]

That section of the vid when you bring up Spacers Choice I was expecting you to say “ITS NOT THE BEST CHOICE, ITS SPACERS CHOICE!” xD

[@denizmetint.462]

Questing, skilling, looting, role playing, different ways to play the game. I'm definitely going to buy this game. A good way to support Obsidian.

[@johnp11788]

"The Fallout game we always wanted." Yes

[@TinkerTailorSoldier1]

This is missing some things I’ve always wanted in Fallout.

[@ArcherAC3]

LOL, not even close. Foremost, Fallout was fun and immersive. It was also a lot more complex, alive, the AI was also able to think while in combat instead of just blindly rushing towards you, and combat wasn't so bullet-spongy boring. I was going to say Outer Worlds felt like a past generation game in every regard, but then it's not even near as good as Fallout NV, so that would be unfair for the latter.

[@leeonardodienfield402]

@@ArcherAC3 you obviously haven't played it. and fallout doesn't have bullet sponge enemies? i'm now convinced you've never played FO3, NV or 4 either lmao.

[@ArcherAC3]

@@leeonardodienfield402 Not "bullet-spongy boring", there was a (important) bit more to it. Take Gears of War for example, it also makes use of a bullet sponge system instead of a realistic ArmA like system; yet it never fails to demand for tactics, quick thinking and change of play style. Fallout NV and even more Fallout 4 are also a bit similar, different enemies behave differently in combat, damage is more critical (instead of just a floating number from an HP bar), AI is not plain dumb and knows how to use cover and flank at times AND combat in general was much more complex and have more variety. Oh, and I did play, even if for some unfortunate 2,5 hours in which I happened to uninstall, reinstall and finally definitely uninstall this crap again. Also, the attempt at an Hardcore more they tried to implement with "supernova" difficulty is so cheaply ridiculous. Almost every food item in New Vegas had an effect on both Hunger and Thirst (commonly on Sleep as well); while in this broken crap I was almost dying of Thirst because every single food and beverage item you can find in early game doesn't affect Thirst.

[@newbiegains6525]

Matty hard at work! Can’t wait for the stream today!

[@benicus18]

Any looting game I always fill up my inventory with needless items and will physically slow walk back to the base to scrap rather than drop anything 😂

[@johnstarr6429]

I'm having a blast playing on Xbox gamepass

[@soaponarope8995]

Me too, no idea why it was added to game pass feels like a total mistake cause this game is awesome unlike gamepass 😂

[@TheStateofruin]

Good way of trying to get you on there ennit, hopefully ppl will continue using it, us gamers know better though or have already played to death anything decent on there and the games prob cost next to nothing now anyways. Good for declutering though.

[@caveresch]

@@soaponarope8995 game pass is great lol obviously you're just playing on console or you're not really into quality games for almost free.. Or $1 if you were smart and did that deal and used it for your remaining time of gold (which for me was 2.5 years) and then you can play gears 1,4 and 5 on pc, metro, outter worlds, Blair witch, dishonored 2, shadow warrior, saints row, hellblade, dead rising 4, forza... I don't understand how it's a bad deal honestly lol

[@ArcherAC3]

A blast of boredom only; this unfinished crap is not even worth the $1I wasted for one month of game pass. Should have kept Fallout 4 installed, at least that glitchy unoptimized mess was fun, unlike Outer Worlds.

[@ArcherAC3]

@@soaponarope8995 "Unlike game pass"? But then this unfinished Outer Worlds crap is fun?! What's wrong with you people??? Rocket League, Outer WILDS, Deus Ex, Gears of War, Fallout NV, Astroneer, Metro, Sea of Thieves, Call of the Wild... all of these masterpieces are on Game Pass, but somehow people are wasting time playing this BS game.

Just gotta say i really admire you keeping your coverage of TOW spoiler free, but still incredibly informative. You're helping tons of us out here, and unlike some other video game news sources *cough* ign *cough* you do so without ruining our initial playthrough

[@carpetfluff35]

The words 'game news source' and IGN should really not exist in the same sentence unless it's one like this or one explaining why they are not one.

[@robertworth1185]

Very informative video, thanks Matty.

[@thomaskirkness-little5809]

I really like that we always get the same number of points to spend, because when one stat gives you more points to spend (Intelligence, generally), that's an important stat. When the numbers are equal, all stats are important.

[@stevep25]

This game reminds me so much of Firefly, it's amazing, it's like the second season we never got.

[@1121b]

the unreliable was definitely at least partly inspired by the serenity, some of the interior is super similar. made me so happy exploring it the first time

[@R0cketRed]

Yea, I would love it if they had more references to the show. It would be amazing if we got quests that were like the train job they pull or the getting married without knowing it and she turns out to be an assassin. God that would be great.

There are multiple points in the game where you can choose a dialouge option like screw you And that starts a fight

I wish they had 3rd person like in new vegas. Playin FPS fully makes me feel weird idk lol never was a fan of fps.

[@sitizenkanemusic]

When I'm exploring, stealthing and travelling, I love 3rd person. When I'm in full battle, 1st person helps.

[@MistahJay7]

@@sitizenkanemusic Exactly same here. I do everything in 3rd person. just when the big gun fights come around ill switch to FPS kill everyone then switch back to 3rd person. Lol hopefully they'll add it in the future maybe in the game. FPS is cool for like call of duty and battlefield type games multiplayers. But in my story role playing game I wana see my character. Makes me feel more immersed and invested lol plus its easier for me to see everything

If it's a motion sickness issue, change the FOV setting higher. Default is 75 but it'll go up to 110 which solved the FPS view issue for me.

I could never get into Fallout but I love Outer Worlds. It's not as intimidating as Fallout since you don't have one open world but many big planets that you explore in order. The combat seems far better than what over experienced in Fallout 4 and I love the dialogue options. They are amazing and complimented with great voice acting

[@liamquraeshi2898]

If i remeber correctly, there is one bot companion that looks like a power armour suit.

There is a robot companion on your ship but you need to find a item to power him up.

I don't know what he played on, but on a base Xbox it runs pretty well and I haven't had any crashes, so I can only assume that every other version is at least as good, but very likely better
