`directly`, lol. Like anyone gives a shit any more, after the sloth, Mothman, the dragon.

Bethesda are talentless hacks who sucked what they could suck from an original idea from 1997. The mainstream finally recognized this simple fact.

And even if nothing remarkable or even noteworthy for us comes out of The Outer Worlds, at least the mainstream will have an opportunity to learn who were the people who made the real Fallout games.

Qualifiers indicated by text instead of stupid little pictures! This game has it all!

It does look a bit No Man's Sky meets Borderlands, but come on. Cain/Boyarsky can pull it off

Problem with teasers is that people tend to let their imagination run wild. You had folks here talking about Jules Verne and Alphonse Mucha only to end up with Rick and Morty. Instead of AAArcanum we got rich man's Borderlands and instead of monocles and top hats we got DreamWorks faces and Twitter haircuts. Not the worst thing in the world... but not the best either.

Anyway, let's just wait a few hours.

Steve gets a Kidney but I don't even get a tag.
Anyway i am really more ecstatic seeing how many people shit on bethesda rather than the game itself.

I have faith pappy tim and uncle leo can pull out a great game, but the real fun is seeing how people's frustrations just blew up on bethesda's face. Finally getting the recognition bethesda deserve: incompetent pricks.

I warned you guys about Tim Cain when I posted his Steam account with all those hundreds of hours put in all the Boderlands games.
.

New Vegas/Borderlands/Rage are very similar, they just differ in how much RPG mechanics they have.

We will see how much of RPG Outer Worlds is and how much it's just a FPS.

One thing I can tell you from this trailer, and goes without doubt - the voice acting here will be miles ahead of Bethesda's games or Obsidian's own Deadfire.

It's a joke!
When you look at JS files they send you to look at HTML & CSS.
And when you look at HTML they send you to CSS & JS.
And when you look at CSS, they send you to look inside HTML & JS.

I hope the voice acting will indeed be rich and varied and not
TroyBaker,BrandonKeener and Courtney Taylor like every other fucking game.

This is like a game of challenge, where Owlcat beats obsidian at their own game, only for Obsidian to attempt to beat Bethesda at their own game. I wonder who Bethesda tries to outsmart next.
