    I really want to play this one, I just need to find some time which is probably going to be impossible. Old man over 40, with 2 kids under 3 problems. Thanks for taking the time to go off the beaten path a little bit and review these games that might not get a million views ACG, a lot of us find these much more interesting than the blockbuster GOTY bait.
    I had just finished watching before you had to reup for the audio issues, which is just a reminder about how much work these videos are to put together. It's easy to click play and watch such a well put together video, it's nice to be reminded of how much goes into these. So thanks for what you do.

      Similar situation here. My desktop includes 25+ games that I have yet to play. Some classics, because we all know the late 90s was the golden era of games, and mostly remakes like system shock 1. As well as Witcher 3 and all the new Doom games since Doom 2 up until Eternal.. I just prefer the classics I guess, games these days which focus on online and multiplayer have no interest to me. Good thing seeing my backlist.

    I had so much fun with the demo, it played really well, has a fun weapon upgrade system, loved the quests - the glossary, the dialogues reminded me of my typical loved euro jank. I'm definitely picking this up, but I also see myself definitely playing this during some kind of gaming drought, as I don't see myself clearing out enemy bases full of robots, or clearing out nests all the time.
    Also, really liked the exploration - tried climbing the huge mountain in the demo, saw a dude sitting a top of it and then I jumped off it. Felt nice, oldschool in a way, not "directed" like in other games.

  • @truehare
    @truehare Před 3 měsíci +1

    I love that they kept the glossary unintrusive in this one. One of my favorite things about the original game was diving headfirst in the Talan world, including their language, and learning it all as if I were the main character. Yes, there was a lexicon, as the game called it, but it was only updated when Slade had someone explain to him what each word and concept meant. And it was all so well explained in-game that I rarely ever had to use the lexicon at all.
    Hope it's the same now - I haven't played the "story" portion of the demo, so I haven't seen it in action; guess I'll find out tomorrow.

I am surprised to hear the natives have various UK accents, considering they had an interesting more neutral and different accent in Second Contact, with their unique terms (kept in this one I see, at least). Maybe it will sound fine to me and it is just that you have a more sensitive ear for that.

    Never heard of this franchise until now. I'll wait a while for a few patches to get in there before looking at it again.

    Yeah, so glad they nailed this. Got my copy from Best Buy coming in today. Happy to support the dev in this so they hopefully invest in more titles like this.

    My favorite part of your videos are when you discuss the subtle nuances of the excellent Windows Vista.

      A darling of a program only let down by unfortunate timing and an inability to "Windows". Vista was named aptly, as most of the time you were waiting for it to do something, and spend that time looking out the window.

    That glossary is really cool and I don't know why this isn't a standard for RPGs. I was recently playing some CRPGs where people just kept dropping half a dozen NPC names in every dialogue. Sure, I've come across those names before but I have 15 parallel quests. How am I supposed to remember who Q'sasel or Ja'Lane were?

    If this got a remake, then maybe there's hope for new versions of Dark Void and/or Psi-Ops!

    I played the Second Contact version : it was good ! I had lots of fun playing that adventure.
    I took my time for about 23 hours and achieved 97% Main story and about 67% "Sub-missions" (sic). I was going for 100% but accidentally triggered the ending sequence.

    Reminds me of an updated Shadows of the Empire type of game. Lots of good ideas here, just missed opportunities in how they were implemented. Makes me sad Star Wars 1313 was cancelled.

    Played the demo. Weapon mods feel crisply done and clearly do what they say and combat feels gooood. But like, gooooooood. Some Bungie-esque depth to gunplay.

      Agreed, I could use more silly in games these days. Surprised no one is mentioning Elex... this looks like a less janky version of that game with a more streamlined system. Looks fun. I like the idea of a big, dumb action movie kind of game.

    @Nashmite Před 2 měsíci

    Man! Everything about this game hits 100% of the right spots for me. I'd play it, if only to experience the soundtrack. And that's a first for me, for any game. For some reason, I get very strong Advent Rising vibes from this title; another game that wasn't all that well received, but that I couldn't get enough of.

    Is Bruce Willis in this one? Outcast Second contact had the tag line 'voiced by the official voice of Bruce Willis'

    Bad release timing or I would've probably picked it up at launch. Still finishing up Rebirth before Dragon's Dogma 2 and Rise of the Ronin. Something to play during the slow summer months.

    I played the hell out of the original but didn't bother with any of do overs, I will definitely give this one a spin though, just for old times sake

  • @BlackAera
    @BlackAera Před 3 měsíci

    I heard the GameStar staff are big fans of the original and they expressed major concerns last time they played the remake in a preview feature. It seems like the developers didn't understand what made the original so special in the first place and failed to capture its spirit, essentially leaving the remake with a lot of stuff that has been done better already by other games and nothing to make it stand out these days. Outcast always has been a niche franchise and there seems to be no buzz around the remake. Karak may like it but I fear the remake doesn't do enough to end up being successful.

  • @davemeredith6964
    @davemeredith6964 Před 3 měsíci +2

    So pleased you covered this one mate. I played the original back in the day on a mates PC.
    I gained interest in this new version when I caught some footage last year. I grabbed the demo weeks back on PC and was pleasantly surprised. The world looked brilliant and bursting with life and colour, there was an old school humour to the voice over of the main character...it's not trying to be a super serious Hollywood bs script. The combat felt good and the flying/jet pack stuff was a neat way to get about..
    The scale of the world though sold me so I pre ordered at a nice price of £26. I like to support AA studios as I find there is more concentration on gameplay and fun and I feel these games generally feel like they are made by gamers and not corporate brain deads who turn out what they are told by bosses with heads up their own arse. Games like Outcast are a bit of a dying breed and it's a shame.
    Hopefully I can grab some time on this over the weekend.
    Cheers for the video and your thoughts.

    It's disturbing how much of this reminds me of Enshrouded and I'm not sure who is to blame;
