With as much puffery as this game was putting out prerelease, I kinda expecting it to be mediocre at best. Dunno if my prediction has been proven true yet but not a great beginning with this review.

I’ve been (re)playing some not-so-well-recieved RPGs recently. In august I replayed Greedfall, which PC Gamer gave a score of 67, and now I am playing the Outer Worlds, which PC Gamer gave a 79. Yes, they’re flawed games, but I was and I am enjoying myself. One just has to keep one’s expectations in check.

What I’m trying to say is: I look forward to buying this for 5 € in 5 years.
