What I'm saying is that so far from my understanding the only way to play in a higher resolution with proper output is the original xbox

You dont need top play in high res

You enjoy the game the way its meant to be played. nVidia said it decades ago. Dont listen to Tiktokers.

I ain't listening to ticktockers

#

I do this stuff on my own free will under the idea of pushing what the hardware is capable of

Out of the box it's 480p on PC, Xbox and PS2 but with the modding I did I pushed it to 720p

rancid python
#

After making it to, what I think is, the halfway point of Outer Worlds 2ā€¦
Iā€™m almost positive the negative reviews were written by people who didnā€™t understand what they were playing.

#

That being said.
Yall should give this shit a try. If youā€™re into a slower paced, fps rpg

#

ā€œThe writing is boringā€
No, itā€™s really not. Is it a little dry? Sure. But thatā€™s because youā€™re literally fighting a Corporate War, In Space. The writing isnā€™t boring, you just gotta brush up on your ā€œlong and roundabout ways that business folk like to talkā€ See: Speaking ā€œcorporateā€

ā€œThereā€™s no loot, or action!ā€
Thereā€™s loot everywhere, and action as well.

ā€œThe enemies are bullet sponges, even on story modeā€ Thatā€™s a skill issue, literally. This just means you should reevaluate your build, assess your flaws, and try again.

#

ā€œGame wonā€™t let you respec your characterā€ Itā€™s an Obsidian game.
New Vegas didnā€™t let you do that, and I didnā€™t play enough of Avowed to know if that game allows it.
Itā€™s also ā€œrealisticā€ It takes a supreme amount of focus and discipline to unlearn anything. Therefore, ā€œrespeccingā€ would look more like ā€œjust building more on what you have.ā€

#

Itā€™s not better than the first game, but itā€™s definitely nowhere near worse.
Folks just hopped in with misconceptions.
In my opinion.

neon vale
#

i dont like it because its an obsidian game

rancid python
#

But also. Thatā€™s a fair feeling.
Obsidian isnā€™t known for catchy and flashy.

neon vale
#

i just dont like obsidian writing in general specifically with NV

rancid python
#

What about NV writing didnā€™t you like?
(Not setting you up for an argument, I donā€™t glaze that game or the company. Iā€™m just enjoying OW2)

neon vale
#

it tries the whole "everyone has their bonuses and flaws" thing but fails at it

void kelp
#

New Vegas is the Clear Sky of the fallout games

neon vale
#

it fails to make the legion not look cartoonishly evil while making the NCR just look stupid rather than flawed

rancid python
#

I mean.. Thatā€™s fair.. Butā€¦ That also (in my opinion) keeps characters from feeling two dimensional.

neon vale
#

imo it makes the factions feel two dimensional

rancid python
#

Thatā€™s because the Legion is cartoonishly evil.
The NCR is inept.

The only thing they did right was push out the Brotherhood of Steel.

void kelp
#

But new Vegas is supposed to have that style. Which is completely valid if thatā€™s not how you swing

rancid python
#

But, I do wish more couldā€™ve been done to rectify either side.

But reforming the Legion would be nigh impossible. Canā€™t beat them without wiping them out.

As for the NCR.. They were more than just ā€œthe bootā€ before New Vegas.

neon vale
# neon vale imo it makes the factions feel two dimensional

literally 2 dimensions sometimes, everytime i hear about the biggest factions its always
Legion - stability but are also evil
NCR - inept and corrupt but also the most normal
House - stable but tyrannical
Yesman - literally mainly mentions anarchy in the ending, the rest is all up to headcanon

rancid python
#

Thatā€™s fair.

neon vale
#

which would work on paper, but the way its done makes every side you take feel not worth taking

rancid python
#

No definitive ā€œgoodā€ way to go is usually a turn off for most.

#

Same with OW2. Thereā€™s only one ā€œgoodā€ faction andā€¦ Well.. Theyā€™re idiots.

neon vale
#

i like morally gray characters but i prefer good vs evil so im not as much of a fan of morally gray factions

rancid python
#

As a ā€œDo-Gooderā€ I feel that.

#

My whole playthrough has been a struggle of ā€œwhatā€™s the catch?ā€, but thatā€™s part of the fun to me.

#

As long as you donā€™t play Elden Ring, youā€™ll be fine.

#

Because thereā€™s no good ending for those games, either.

#

And no, Ranni doesnā€™t count.

void kelp
#

Both OW are good titles but very selective tastes.

I personally enjoy the whole everyoneā€™s an evil corporation so pick ur poison kinda deal. Plus they are both goofy with it. Itā€™s kinda like a more tame borderlands in a way.

rancid python
#

Have you played OW2?
Half of the Corporations donā€™t exist, anymore. Itā€™s pretty grim in this game.

It makes sense tho, they struggled heavily staying afloat in the first one

rancid python
#

Iā€™m a Sneak/Pistol build, with Speech. I havenā€™t met anything I couldnā€™t drop in a single Sneak Attack, or Speech Check.

#

And even in an all out fight, when stealth isnā€™t viable.
My silenced revolver is still a menace.

Itā€™s all about the build.

#

Oh, I canā€™t stand an NV glazer. I love Fallout. But Iā€™d rather play 3 than NV.
Iā€™d rather play 4 than NV.

void kelp
rancid python
#

But I still loved NV.

rancid python
#

Uniques everywhere.

void kelp
#

Is there still science weapons ?

rancid python
#

Yup.
My current weapon is a Silenced Light Revolver (with Designator attachment) that pretty much marks my enemy (after a weakspot hit) to my companions, and makes them do more damage to target.

#

I pop anything once, from Sneak, itā€™s usually dead.
If it survives the headshot, my two goons smear the sand with it before I get to shoot twice.

#

But you can stack magazine size. My normal 8 rounds is now 18.
And as long as my mag never runs dry (reload before empty) Iā€™m always rocking a +40% damage buff. Or some craziness. If I let my mag go empty, I get a 20% debuff for a brief period.

So like. If you reload like itā€™s a CoD game. Youā€™re fine.

#

The science guns are SICK

#

You can use them to hide bodies and shit.

#

Some real Sam Fisher/Big Boss shit.

Use Science Goop like Corvoā€™s Rat Swarm to dispose of bodies. Maintain stealth.

#

N-Ray stuff is still a thing.

Outer Worlds 2 has an ā€œinfinite ammoā€ build, and Iā€™m straight up deleting everything.

#

If you Spec into Sneak, and Guns you can get a Perk that refills a round or three to your magazine per Crit/Headshot Kill.
I use a suppressed revolver, and never have to reload.
As long as my mag/cylinder is never reloaded from empty, I always have a damage buff.
I also have a 20% damage buff on anything that isnā€™t actually targeting me.
I refill my mag every time I fire. Itā€™s so dumb.

Sounds awesome, I love when RPG's allow players to create broken builds that delete everything in sight.

rancid python
#

Itā€™s insane. Outer Worlds 2 has not been a disappointment.

My skills arenā€™t even that high. Guns is 10/20, and Sneak is 8/20
my two highest skills are Speech (18/20) and Lockpick (14/20) and then Medical (6/20)

#

So like. If I even have to fight, since I can talk my way out of anything, it never stands a chance.

Outer Worlds 2 has a gun that levels up as you use it.
It quickly becomes one of the strongest weapons youā€™ll ever use.

I only recently got my Lockpick high enough to grab it, but dude.
Itā€™s an absolute crowd-cleaner. Some SMG that now does the same damage as my Revolver.

Almost near the end of the game. Almost near max level, and Iā€™m probably one of the most powerful beings in the entire solar system.

I dont necessarily see it that way. Many companies hire an external lawyer to do investigations, filing and even the actual strike on their behalf because of time restraints and maybe there's no one who can effectively perform the investigation.

I don't care about European politics, I live in Argentina, I just want to play a game similar to Stalker until I can upgrade my PC. Why would they share those screenshots in a Stalker subreddit? What's the connection? Or do all Stalker fans now have to boycott everything pro-Russia? I don't think it's right to trash the work of someone who has explicitly said this is their dream project just because they support the other side. I understand, they're supporting terrorists and that's wrong, but don't mess with their work (This is assuming it's all real; if it turns out it's all staged by the developer, I'll be furious).
