The Outer Worlds information overload

Wow....
For a game with no romance options, the press has spent a surprising amount of time talking about it?

In case anyone actually cares about this, you should know that Steam seems to have recently relaxed their restrictions on pornography. So you've now got that option in addition to the entire rest of the Internet.

If I remember correctly, no Fallout games have sex between companions, isn't?

Yes, you can have sex with prostitutes, be a pornstar, a fluffer, have sex with some NPCs, but specifically with companions I don't recall.
As I stated before I think it's for the best, never saw this kind of option really work in videogames.

An interesting though...

I finally watched "Better Call Saul" after it was standing two years in my Netflix personal list.
It has one of the best romantic relationship between characters in a story, Jimmy and Kim. You know why?
They don't spend thousands of episodes "discussing the relationship" or whatever. They live togheter, they sometimes have sex, do something they both like or have fun doing, do their own things alone without the other partner being forced to be present like you usually see in movies and etc.

You know, like normal people usually behave.
 
I'd hope not but I wasn't really sure if brfritos was including that in their statement or not.
 
Saying that, F4 has taken up about 25% of my total PS4 playing time with a total of 244 hours.

It's taken me that long to work out I don't ever really want to play it again.
 
Figured someone here might be interested in the tweets from Mikey Dowling and MCA.
Screenshot on my phone so sorry but I made it an imgur album so it didn't clutter the forum.

Why is MCA replying so much with such big promises? Something seems weird but who knows I guess. Edited to correct link after changing the privacy of the album.

Hmmm, I have several questions.

Okay, the cynic in me is saying that MCA is purposely trying to sabotage The Outer Worlds. In a desperate ploy for revenge tactics against Obsidian.

However, another part of me believes MCA is basically fangirling right now and is getting way too excited.

I want it to be the later so much cause it's funny.
 
Yeah, looks....off?

maybe he just wanted to help his old friends, making some free disclosure.

Or not. Avellone is a very weird guy.

These just sound like jokes to me. Hard to hear the tone because it's text, but 'more story-driven than 3 KOTOR 2s' doesn't even make sense. I guess I can't tell what he's mocking, though. Could just be making fun of all the shallow comparisons of game size and scope.
 
Huh, what's going on with MCA? I thought he was still shitting all over Obsidian. Did I miss something?
 
He seems to just be shitposting and giggling at people actually believing him. Did you forget how he came out and said he'd work for Outer Worlds if literally all of the Obsidian heads were fired?

I think you right.
 
AFAIK he was always pretty excited for Tim and Leo's project. He didn't take issues with development part of Obsidian, only its managment. His enthusiasm might be genuine.
Then again, he did essentially hurt PoE2 with his precisely timed bombing of Obsidian back on Codex. At least a bit.
Who knows...


I like to think he is honestly excited for the game tho. If anything, because I think he has massive respect for Tim and Leo and anything they have ever done.

Besides, why doesn't somebody ask him on Twitter if he is joking or not? I imagine he won't respond, but then again, you never know.

Is it, though? I didn't see many people who cared for his May of Rage reveal. Most of those are pretty much contained within the Codex, here and there at NMA, and probably couple of articles mentioning it on mainstream gaming 'journalism', and yet the thread at the Codex discussing Deadfire's sales have practically zero mention of MCA's reveal affecting its sales.
 
I'm sure it's sarcasm but it's just puzzling to me as why. Is it just for the lulz or is there a bit more to it? Just a bit weird. Has he exhibited this kind of behavior on twitter/social media before?

All the time, the guy really like to mess up with people. :D

I know this is not the thread, nor the game is an RPG, but I'm really curious what he will do in Dying Light 2.
The first game builted a strong, very good and cohesive sandbox enviroment, only to be wasted with a mediocre quest line and some disputable game mechanics.
People like and play for the COOP/MP combat nowdays, but he's really upping the game to another level by what I've seem in the news.
