The interaction with Eva being a hostage, “IDGAF, this isn’t a rescue,” was also different to how I’d have played it, which makes the character their own character not just some mindless, blank avatar stand-in.
Like just straight-up shooting the Hounds lackey who caps Mr Chang, after an interrogation.
Outriders signed in stuck full#
I haven’t played the full release because it’s not worth the money to me, but in the demo I really liked the missions where your character makes decisions that I never would have, given the choice. They’ve picked a tone and run with it, which is refreshing compared to all the ‘blank slate, self-insertion, resulting in a nothing character’ bullshit that we usually see in this kind of game, like Destiny or The Division. That doesn’t happen often.Īnd I’m so glad that your character – despite the occasional dialogue option – is their own character. I read all that shit and got attached to characters who then either died or had their shit wrecked and it felt good to actually feel something from that. The codex entries for everyone on landing had me buying into that we were going to stick with early colonization for quite a while. Getting tossed near-naked and confused actually comes with a great reason.
It’s not as tight and responsive as other stuff I’ve been playing, but the story does a lot of things better or at least differently. I actually preferred the story/plot/ some of the acting to the gameplay. As of this writing, the Outriders server status website lists multiplayer as “operational” and core components as having a “major outage.” (Hmm…) Earlier today, core components were marked as “operational,” while the multiplayer service showed up as “partially operational.” These connectivity hiccups have persisted into the game’s second day, something People Can Fly acknowledged in a tweet. (My personal favourite? A Reddit post headlined, “Are the servers on Enoch too?”) Kotaku’s John Walker tweeted that the Xbox servers went down when he was at the end of a mission and then wouldn’t let him back into the game at all. Social media channels are rife with users sharing similar experiences. It took us another 11 minutes to party up again. After about an hour of play, I got booted from our session at the start of a mission. We’re both playing on PlayStation 5, and both of us have relatively stable internet service. Last night, I teamed up with Kotaku’s Zack Zweizen to test out the co-op.
