For me, The Outer Worlds was right there with Witcher 3 as one of the best games this generation. It really does feel like Fallout, but perhaps somewhat less open world when you're actually on a planet b/c of map boundaries and enemies too dangerous for your level to keep you on track. The diverging story lines and open space travel (once you get the requisite navkey to be able to land) compensate for that somewhat.

While it IS a great game, it's REALLY short. I've been hoping for a surprise DLC to expand the content. (There are several other planets in the galaxy map you can't travel to. Hint, hint.) I hope the game did well enough to get a larger treatment in Outer Worlds 2.
NO! I didn't know this existed! Thanks for the heads up. Turning on the PS4 to buy this right now...
Yeah, definitely looking forward to some DLC content. Did you try it on Supernova difficulty? I beat it pretty easily on the Hard setting, but had to completely change my playing style to get anywhere on Supernova. Went from going in guns blazing to a stealth run.
It does feel more like a tech demo than a complete game.

I thoroughly enjoyed it none-the-less.
