    Update: Go check out our update patch review the game is better!
    Here is is after 35 hours playing and still not finished a 20 hour game completely lol! Check out our performance review here - czcams.com/video/nOtR8uHe5vQ/video.html - I think this is one of the most interesting reviews I have done. Mainly because it’s the most I have enjoyed a game in ages, but also the most annoyed I have been at a certain times. Mark

      After encountering my first spinning loading circle I thought I made a mistake waiting it on Switch and not playing on Game Pass for PC. But after spending some more time, I forgot about all these annoyances. It quickly transformed from some disappointment to a 13-hour non-stop play session and a sleepless weekend night. Literally couldn't put it away until I finished everything I could in the first colony (you are not alone here spending lots of time in the first mission of a 20-hour game).
      Then I remembered that I've played through Fallout New Vegas on a first Surface Pro. I had to turn all graphics settings down to a minimum and lower screen resolution to 720p and it still had struggled at times. Actually, I had to do this for lots of games to even run on Surface Pro. Nevertheless, I had enjoyed Fallout New Vegas with potato graphics a lot back then - the same goes to The Outer Worlds on Switch now.
      We just got spoiled lately and have forgotten that some time ago we used to play games where potato graphics and frame drops were the only way to play a game.
      Also, I was able to have such a good non-stop play session ONLY because I've played it both in portable and on TV while sitting, lying, and even just standing in the middle of my room. I'll gladly trade some looks and performance for such convenience.

    The game is great, I play it on Gamepass. If this port was at least as good as the Switcher I would have happily double dipped but that performance is inexcusable, you were definitely not too harsh. Maybe with a few patches and DEEP discount, I'll consider it but rn it's not worth it whatsoever. Would love to see yall revisit this one in your series where you look at games after a few patches.

    Man I've gotta give you credit for your excellent review as usual. I really appreciate that you actually try the games for a decent amount of time before reviewing them. Many reviewers don't do that and its really important because sometimes the game can get better or worsen in its latter parts. I've had Outer Worlds on PC since release and I love it.
    Probably won't get it anytime soon on my switch because I think they did a fairly poor job at porting it over to be honest. But maybe one day 🤷‍♂️

    Oof Mark when you see the final score you know it’s a better game than that. Anything that can suck you in for hours on end is doing something right. And I know you spoke very highly of it and critically. I actually bought it off of your first review because I just had to know.
    I have been so desperate for a fallout game that after a few pints I impulse bought it. You’re right $60 US is a lot for this game, and it should be selling for much cheaper, especially after the 2k collections just released. But for some reason I’m hooked, and can look past all of the faults.
    I guess I trust your guys judgement enough at this point to appreciate your overall opinion more than the score. You’re rough critics but true fans. Feels great to be logging some hours on this when I know you fellas are doing the same. Thanks again for the review.

    A great, fair, well-rounded review! The music section was the highlight for me personally as I found that in many moments it transported me to the early oddworld games. The soundscape is very similar. 68% is very generous. If I were reviewing it I’d go to around 55% as the stutters, glitches, texture pops, frame rate and loading are at times abhorrent. The main takeaway at least is that players have a fallout-type experience on the go where the presence of an actual fallout title is absent from (looking at you BethSoft... time now to port FO3 GOTY please). I also became a subscriber thanks to this video. Thank you.

For example when you read the text sometimes the letter "a" can be confused with letter "e" or "o" when reading fast, of course you can pause the video every time the text appears but it can turn a little annoying.

    Just finished this game on Switch along with 2 DLCs. Previously owned this game on Xbox but I bought the Switch version with expansion pass since I want some pocket adventure on the go where I can just plug in headphones and play anytime, without anyone disturbing me at all.
    The frame rate isn’t high but mostly solid. Gyroscope is a bit sensitive (even low sen can’t fix it) but it only takes like few hours to get used to it. Resolution is supposedly a problem, but I don’t find myself having troubles in combats even when I use ranged weapons most of the time. It probably has something to do with the fact that the battles in this game isn’t exactly complicated when AIs are predictable. Plus gameplay wise I can just put a scope on my fire arm and I will immediately have a way further visuals on my surroundings. Loading time is apparently much longer than that on XBOX. For most cases it shouldn’t be a problem since we are usually travelling in open area, then until I reached Murder on Eridanos DLC where the story takes place in a hotel where the loading screen shows up upon entering and exiting pretty much every small facility.
    Overall the journey is more than enjoyable. The aforementioned performance issues can be highly ignored when the Switch definitely doesn’t fail to deliver the great written story at all. It seems they put more efforts to ensure cutscenes and conversations work properly. The motions of NPC when interacting with you are just as good as these on console versions.
    I ended up spending 80 hours in the game and there are a lot of fun moments and it is all thanks to the portability of Switch. I never need to force myself to rush any part of the story or dungeons since I can pick up where I left off at any time. It has been a long while since I have so much fun exploring a single player game world since BotW.

    This is a very solid review. I only have the switch to play on, and I had heard how amazing is game is and so I just had to buy it. Even though I knew the graphical Fidelity was pretty crappy, I think a lot of the reviewers factor that in as the most prevalent part of their review and just crapped all over the game without taking into account the actual amazing gameplay that still happens on the switch. If I were to read it, I would give it a 68% as well, or a 7 out of 10. it's an amazing game, but you are very right. The graphical performance of this game definitely hinder it at times. However it is definitely still very playable, and if this is the only console you can play it on I couldn't recommend it enough. But I too agree, if you have another system to play it on, definitely play it on that and not the switch. But if you only got a switch, go for it a hundred percent

    I'm loving the game myself, it's the option of having it in handheld, I have gamepass but never get chance to play for long sittings so. Outer worlds isn't for me on Xbox. The graphics are rough but the gameplay so far for me has been fantastic. I really hope they will put some serious patch action on this and make it shine, at least a little!

    I enjoyed, and was not bothered by the graphical hit with The Witcher 3.
    Using that as a baseline - would the graphical issues/clarity be similar to that?
    I have access to this on Xbox Gamepass (last I checked) but I just know I will play it more on the switch, what with being able to take it with me

Apparently the developers are taking another look at this to improve the performance. Here's hoping.

    I may be interested in this, it does have large amount of perks to choose from like fallout does it?

I preferred mass effect and motor style rpgs the best as they don't offer you too many perks/skills.nplus had too many things going a tiger once so to me was hard figure what to do. lol I wish I could explain better but I hope hat I said gives idea. I have heard a lot good things about it and often say if your not fan fallout this game still may be something that I might like.

    The load screens still exist on other systems as well. I played it recently on Xbox One S and the loading is actually longer on it. I'm 9+hrs in to the Switch port, nowhere near that on Xbox. I got past the ugly pretty quick, the story and gameplay is that compelling and hooks you in. It didn't run great on my Xbox One S, so I wasn't expecting a miracle. I haven't had much studdering or frame rate dips. I'm on the Anton lab quest on Groundbreaker.

    Should have waited for a sale as you say but I collect physical copies and sometimes waiting for a few months means they physical copies either are sold out or twice the price. I’m playing Bioshock right now so it will sit unwrapped until I hear that they’ve further patched it. I hope you return to it on another video once it’s had a few patches.

    Thank you for the honest review. I'm still going to get The Outer Worlds at some point - it just sounds so interesting, and I usually play in handheld mode so hopefully the issues will affect me less. The Switch is my only console, so I don't have the option of playing it anywhere else, and I can deal with the slightly bad graphics if the story and gameplay are good (FE3H has some pretty bad textures in the cutscenes but it's still one of my favourite games on Switch). I will wait for a sale though, but I would have done that anyway because the price is a bit too high for me. Hopefully by the time I buy it they'll gave released some patches to make it smoother.

    I had this ordered for several months and was really looking forward to it, but blurry visuals, choppy framerates and load times really break a game for me. - Graphics are obviously not as important as gameplay, but I do want them to run as smoothly as possible. - I cancelled after seeing performance previews and will only consider a purchase if it's heavily and successfully patched.
    I do have an option to buy on PS4, but honestly my Switch has become my primary console and favoured way to play. - Hopefully the developers will listen and work on giving the fans the conversion we wanted.

Of good controls in the first degree: not guilty. Of smooth gameplay: not guilty. Of a fun story: not guilty.
