The Outer Worlds

I'm not big on Fallout, yet I'm a tad excited about Outer Worlds which looks like it will be not grey, funny in what should be a good Western RPG.

Have you played New Vegas mas? This looks so much like it and I am consequently very excited.

Never played NV as I didn't like Fallout 3

Obsidian really did put their own spin on it, while they are similar on a surface level NV is in a different league when it comes to roleplay and quest design, with all the interacting factions and true player agency. Bethesda moved even further away from that with Fallout 4 which is why Outer Worlds is so exciting

New Vegas was excellent - the faction system really made your quest choices matter and made your character feel like part of a world as opposed to a messianic hero figure coming to liberate the wastelands. I'd imagine that quality of writing will be present in The Outer Worlds.

I hope they have some of the dialogue options in TOW linked to your skills. That was great fun in NV.
