Outriders (demo) — part 1 — Brave New World
0when were you when anthem shuts?
i was sat at home playing warframe when christian ring
'anthem is shut'
'no'
That's when I heard of Outriders, in a thread mourning Anthem's demise. It intrigued me, since it promised to be a single-player and co-op experience, not a live service, and was made by Square Enix. That, and the demo was, supposedly, free.
So here I am, trying it out. Since it's free and the viewership of my Cities: Skylines series has been dropping, might as well get a couple of episodes of content out of it, right?
First impressions? It's good. Character creator isn't mindblowing, cutscenes could be a little too much, and asking for a suspension of disbelief when a completely alien planet has spruce forests and grass is a bit too much as well, but hey.
Cutscenes are nice, shooting feels impactful and has some great sound design, environments are pretty, and voice acting is good. I can see it turning into a fairly story-heavy looter-shooter, and I like that prospect, to be honest. The only thing that worries me, is that it'll be a one-and-done kind of a game, while looter-shooters usually do experience some content drops.
