Welcome to the largest gaming community on Lemmy! Discussion for all kinds of games. Video games, tabletop games, card games etc.

Rules

1. Submissions have to be related to games

Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.

This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.

2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil

No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.

We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.

3. No excessive self-promotion

Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.

This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.

4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts

This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.

We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.

5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW

Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.

No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.

6. No linking to piracy

Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.

We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.

Saw it came out and thought for a second "I want to play that" but in reality there was nothing redeeming from the first to bring me back

Thats where I'm at. I'm just now wrapping up Outer Worlds 1 and its just not that good or memorable.

i finished the first one but couldn't even push past 2 hours on the second. Just awful

[–] Kjell@lemmy.world 3 points 4 weeks ago

I liked the first Outer Worlds but didn't even look towards Outer Worlds 2 because it was other better or more interesting games that was released last year.

It feels like it was to much to release Avowed, Outer Worlds 2 and Grounded 2 in the same year. They should have spread out the games more to polish them more before the release.

I kept getting mixed up with Outer Worlds and Outer Wilds, and got really excited then disappointed when I heard about Outer Worlds 2, thinking that Outer Wilds was getting a sequel. So it was always a bummer to me even without actually playing the game.

I didn't realise it came out already. Whoops.

I much prefer their isometric titles anyway.

[–] Sagan_Wept@lemmynsfw.com 2 points 3 weeks ago

At that price tag, I'm not surprised

[–] CannedCairn@lemmy.world 2 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

This reminds me to finish the outer wilds.

[–] kalpol@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 weeks ago

You gotta finish. The ending sticks with you a while

[–] anamethatisnt@sopuli.xyz 2 points 4 weeks ago

I'm waiting for the game to be released on gog.com. I really enjoyed the first game.

[–] Katana314@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago

Call this what you like. Echo effect (previous entry was bad, and so people avoid the very good sequel), $70 price tag…in my case, it was Microsoft nosediving harder than usual on all fronts, including literally bombing children, making it an easy decision to boycott them.

For me it was very laggy and did not work well on my ha (2080ti + 5600x)

I couldnt hit 50FPS stable

[–] TwinTitans@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

Awe fuck. Loved 2. What a shame :(

[–] innermachine@lemmy.world 1 points 4 weeks ago (1 children)

How did you like 2 vs the first? Haven't beat the first got it for free with my prime subscription and just got to monarch. So far liking it!

I started it, and was enjoying it, when it was still on game pass ultimate for for $15 a month but since they raised the prices I just can’t pay that amount of money finish it
