Originally Published 2 months ago — by IGN

Daniel Vavra gave The Outer Worlds 2 a 7/10, criticizing it for lacking innovative game mechanics and a living, non-linear world, despite acknowledging some interesting features like the Flaw system and enhanced dialogue options. He argues that the game largely rehashes old formulas from classic RPGs, and suggests that the game's scope and development approach reflect Obsidian's focus on manageable, quality releases rather than groundbreaking innovation. The review sparks a debate about expectations for modern RPGs and Obsidian's creative direction.
