The Switch port failed to meet my expectations in numerous ways and, more importantly, it fails to do the game’s unique style justice.Īs I took my first steps on Terra 2, the introductory planet in The Outer Worlds, I could immediately tell this port would be rough. On the Switch, I felt like I was playing an entirely different game. Playing on an Xbox One X, I was amazed by its vibrant foliage, dazzling skies, and the endearing rust-buckets used as spaceships. What it lacked in character models or high-resolution textures, it made up for with wonderfully detailed planets and a cohesive look that underscored its snarky capitalist dystopia. The Outer Worlds was not the most visually impressive game when it came out in 2019, but it did have a stunning aesthetic. Though it’s still made for a pretty good Switch game. While this version isn’t an unplayable miss, which is more than can be said of some other ports, it certainly isn’t well done - and doesn’t do the original game justice. I thought it might have the polish that other Switch ports lacked, since it wasn’t trying to play catchup to the console’s success. When you’ve had your fill of Nuka-Cola and you’re ready for a taste of something different - like some good old fashioned saloon whiskey - you can grab your best cowboy hat and saddle up for a different kind of adventure.News that The Outer Worlds would come to Nintendo’s incredibly popular Switch console left me cautiously optimistic. There’s also lots of slow-mo shooting opportunities, so if you love using your VATS, you might get a kick out of the gun-slinging Dead Eye action. With exploration, numerous activities that play out like mini-games, side quests, and a pretty engrossing main story-line, this is another time-stealer that will keep you occupied and then some. In its massive open-world, you’ll have a lot of opportunities to go off the beaten track and play out your journey however you want. While it’s not set after any kind of apocalypse, exploring the wild west promises to deliver a lot of adventures as outlaw Arthur Morgan, who’s part of the Van Der Linde gang. The Mojave desert in Fallout: New Vegas isn’t a million miles away from the world you’ll gallop across in Red Dead Redemption 2.
#Games like the outer worlds series
Platform(s): PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One The combat is a little different, but you can modify your weapons and take different tactical approaches to best the robot dinosaurs. And if you’re a fan of exploration, you’ll enjoy exploring the snowy peaks and grassy fields, and diving into the Cauldrons which are not a million miles away from opening up a vault you’ve yet to explore. Just like in Fallout where you encounter different inhabitants in settlements around the world, you’ll meet many tribes and encampments filled with interesting characters and side quests. You play as Aloy, a machine hunter who sets out to uncover her true origin and unravel the secrets that litter the landscapes. The gorgeous vistas are inhabited by advanced machines that look like all manner of prehistoric creatures. Guerrilla's unique take on the post-apocalypse in Horizon Zero Dawn is far less bleak than the various Wasteland settings you traverse through in Fallout, but it still has just as much intrigue, lore, and steller story-telling to tuck into. Oh, and the sweet rolls are lot more appetising in Elder Scrolls with no rads to speak of. Instead of super mutants, ghouls, and, Deathclaws, you’ll face bears, dragurs, and, of course, plenty of dragons. Skyrim also has its own rich lore, and its lush green world and star speckled skies can be a nice break from the bleak, radiated Wastelands. With civil strife, expansive areas to explore, secrets to uncover, and endless quests and stories to work through, you’ll sink just as many hours into it as you did in Fallout. As the legendary figure known as the Dragonborn, you’re thrown into an epic adventure throughout the lands of Tamriel to put a stop to the dragons who have started resurrecting back to life and returning to the skies.
Also made by Bethesda, the Elder Scrolls series is like a fantasy medieval-esque take on the Fallout open-world formula, and it has a lot of similar combat and RPG elements that will make you feel right at home. The obvious go-to choice if you’re after something similar to the Fallout experience is undoubtedly Skyrim. Platform(s): PC, PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch
