A belated sequel to the 1999 PC classic Outcast. The Good: + the world of Adelpha is now a gorgeous, organic looking and interconnected open world + jetpack travel is a ton of fun + the soundtrack is excellent + weapon modules provide room for experimentation + quests provide variety and are always story-driven The Bad: - even 2 years after Release, the game has a ton of bugs - a lot of cutscenes seem unfinished - characters models don't emote, which undermines the big dramatic moments the story is going for The Summary: Outcast - A New Begging nails the tone and the lore of the original game (I do enjoy the corny jokes), while providing the look and scale of a modern open world title. I just wish they would've left the bugs and jank in the past. Still, an 8 out of 10

I was a big fan of the first game and it was one of the first games i ever bought on pc. A new beginning is a blast to play. It has one of the best map designs i have ever played. It so nice to soar around the map with your jetpack, collect stuff, do trials, upgrade your guns with different parts and find all these little quirky side missions etc. The lore is expanded even further and the humor so cheesy and good that its dripping of Cutter Slade's cheeks. All in all a very nice experience. I would love a third game. Big fan! Thanks for letting me experience this :)

Basically Just Cause 3. Except you're on the planet from Avatar. Except the aliens aren't blue and boring, they're brown and interesting. And mostly easy to like. And you play as Space Nathan Drake. And for some reason it all works. Beautifully. Great game. Absolutely worth the price of admission.

Colonial guilt savior complex Avatar military father redemption arc soar like a bird and ride a giant elephant slug Game engine stutters a lot, which is frustrating, but I didn't have a single crash during my playthrough. I encountered bugs but nothing that prevented me from continuing. The game feels polished somehow despite its flaws. Select Directx12 when starting the game. Initial game load is very slow, but in-game loads are pretty quick. The original game was sooo much more immersive and mysterious than this Far Cry Rage 2 point-of-interest fest, but there's still the same heart here and the same endless dad-jokes. The Talans used to be alien and feel less-so now. A lot of references to the original game in this one. Some of the characters and storylines are interesting, but most are not, and I ended up skipping through parts dialogue pretty often. Cutter Slade gets genuine emotional moments about the struggles of fatherhood but the game tone spends a lot of time being oppressively hokey. The world is largely static, with only a few events that trigger a feeling that the world is doing stuff. The world looks good, and the vistas are easy to appreciate with the mobility that you gain as you play the game. I enjoyed flying around and the other verticality and mobility features of gameplay. You only get 2 guns, but they can be modified, but most mods are not great, so it may take a bit to get a gun into a good spot. Economy is an empty cardboard cutout. Very basic crafting. There's a good amount of story quest content, and the escalation of the story gets exciting, but it ends very abruptly and the ending feels rushed. I barely used potions and think they are a waste of time. About 17% of players liked this game enough to complete the story. 10% of players enjoyed this game enough to fiddle about with a few achievements just to keep the game going after completing the story, myself included.

First hour and a half you will hate the mother f'n FOG. They use a fog to keep you within the tutorialish area. After that though this becomes a really fun game. With a nice sized, and well modelled world full of bases to rob, infestations to clear, and some parkour games to bounce and float around for different rewards. The story sort of makes sense most of the time, and I really like the aliens and all the creatures bopping around doing their own thing. I'm really enjoying the jetpack, and the glide. The weapons are great, and have so many upgrade or modding choices. The controls are very good on an Xbox controller. I've done about half, and am looking forward to climbing more tall places, and exploring more.
