Comunidad Xbox
More ambitious and profound narrative, with the characteristic tone and satirical humor of Obsidian.
Charismatic and well-written characters, with intelligent and humorously sharp dialogues.
Decisions with a real impact on history and relationships with factions, reflected tangibly in the plot.
Significant improvements in gameplay, with a more refined, smooth, and satisfying gunplay than in the first installment.
Spectacular artistic design and artistic direction, with deep landscapes and an excellent soundtrack.
This is not yet a technical feat: despite its visual improvement, it still falls far short of the great references in the genre in terms of pure graphics.
Level design, although more extensive, does not reach the level of interactivity found in other sandbox games of the same genre.
Small bugs and some slight frame rate drops at very specific moments.
Although expressive, some facial animations remain somewhat rigid, mainly for secondary characters.

MeriStation
Shine in what everyone expects from Obsidian: the possibilities of role-playing games.
The system of action and consequence; everything we do has an impact on the world.
The number of charismatic and well-written characters.
Some side missions are really good.
Although the main plot is not bad, some elements seem predictable.
Exploring open scenarios is not very rewarding.
The battle is fine, but it doesn't stand out in any way.

N-Gamz
Total freedom in gameplay and roleplay, with impactful choices and addictive replayability.
Hilarious side quests and a rich universe filled with corporate satire.
Immersive jazzy soundtrack and sharp dialogues for irresistible dark humor.
Expansive environments and varied battles, boosted by synergistic companions.
Bugs and quests blocked requiring frequent reloads
Uneven PS5 Pro optimization with framerate drops and visual artifacts due to PSSR
Lack of fast travel and imprecise waypoints make exploration laborious.
Main scenario anticlimactic despite its promises.

Beyond Gaming
The action is really satisfying.
Playing a role and making choices remains a fun element.
The world comes to life in an atmospheric way.
Main story very well written
The choices you make often have little impact.
The members of your group are dumber than a bag of rocks.
Many of the side missions seem to be unnecessary filler.
Pleasure takes precedence over depth and consequences.

Well written, witty sci-fi
Greatly improved gunplay has heft to it
Flaws are often a lot of fun!
Companions are a loveable bunch of lunatics
The central plot isn't all that interesting
Both friendly and enemy AI is pretty darned dumb
UI issues make travel a bit annoying
Too many holdover weaknesses from the original

4players
A more exciting and direct entrance
Powerful and fast shooting game
A variety of long-range and close combat weapons, which can be modified and improved with mods.
Well-written dialogues with serious elements but also humorous ones.
Good character editor with a focus on role-playing.
improved walking
Unreal Engine 5 brings beautiful worlds to the screen.
A strong interpretation, even if it is only in English.
Decisions have more or less significant consequences.
Credible characterization
sometimes moral dilemmas
High material resource hunger including stuttering crossings
small bugs (quest triggers are not activated, corpses pass through the ground)
The gaming world could be more lively.
The variation in earnings remains limited.
Entertaining quests, but so far without a real highlight.

GameStar
...you lacked diversity and breadth in Outer Worlds 1.
... you have been looking for years for a blend of genres between RPG, shooter, and math lessons.
... you want to see how the third largest video game publisher in the world sells satire on capitalism.
... you don't touch a role-playing game with less than 300 hours of gameplay.
... you found Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice too easy.
... you go to the wine cellar to laugh (and along the way, you forget what you wanted to do there).
