Shows me $29.99 now
It was only available for free on 2023-12-25.
The price is right. This is the only game I ever refunded on steam. It is way more linear than they made it out to be.
still better than starfield.
looking forward to whatever obsidian does next
Thanks!
to clarify, this is the Corporate Hellscape in Space rpg “Outer WORLDS”, not the comfy mystery game (with existential dread elements) “Outer WILDS”.
Man. Such a shame those games came out at the same time with effectively the same name
Outer Wilds is probably older. There was a prototype in 2012 for the guy’s master’s thesis: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X2AIOT24MWk
And I remember playing a beta version 3 years before release or so with a few less planets and much more primitive graphics.
It also certainly doesn’t help me remembering which is which when in Outer WILDS you explore different worlds and in Outer WORLDS the tutorial area is kind of an overgrown wilds in which you explore very few worlds. When I have to talk about either one of them I just say “You know, the one with the crazy gravity physics and planets” or “You know, the one that’s basically just Firefly the video game.”
