I played the Outriders demo for about 3-4 hours and here are my first impressions! Overall I’ve got mixed feelings. I had a lot of fun playing the game but there are so many elements that I think are just not up to par with other looter-shooter games.

Outriders is a third-person shooter mixed with elements from role-playing games. In the beginning of the game, players create their custom characters and choose from four classes, each of them has unique abilities that the players can utilize. The four classes include Trickster, which has the ability to manipulate time, the Pyromancer, which can manipulate fire, the Devastator, which can unleash seismic attacks, and the Technomancer. These special skills have a short cooldown time and can be combined with other skills for maximum effects. The game features a skill tree that allows players to unlock and upgrade their skills.
Players can use different weapons such as shotguns and assault rifles to defeat enemies, and firearms can be customized with weapon mods. Players can hide behind cover to shield themselves from enemy attacks, though health will only regenerate if the player manages to hurt or kill enemies. Players combat both monsters and human enemies. As the player progresses, the world level (the game’s equivalent to gameplay difficulty) will increase. If the world level is high, it is more likely for the player to get high-end loot from defeated enemies.
The game incorporates various role-playing elements. As the players explore, they can explore different hub areas, talk to non-playable characters and complete side missions. In cutscenes a dialogue tree allows to decide the outcome of some conversations, though it does not affect the story’s progression. The game can be played solo, but players can also complete the game together with two other players.

The problem with you is you comparing it to the Division which it's nothing like ..I'm on PC had no problem I did the demo solo and I'm liking it we can play more then one game you know ….it more like Anthem then the Division but with out the Flying and I'm liking it
You need a correction on your video my guy. New items do have a indicator it is a yellow triangle on top right of the gear. If you have a new item in a group it shows the yellow box on the item the you currently have equipped. So if you have new chest piece but you are not visually in the chest piece slots there is a yellow triangle top right of the chest piece you are wearing to tell you there is new gear for this peice of gear.. You can actually see it in our video the first time you open up the inventory the two guns have the yellow indicator.
So with xbox, either he wasn't paying attention or it is a bug because on ps4 when you go to the loot it shows what the loot is, if it is an upgrade or not and also if you want to equip it right at that moment. You never had to go into your inventory to equip it.
To each his own. Enjoy your dead game with the crappy ending.
Humm honestly I'm starting to think that you've decided to not like this game before even trying it.
New item not recognizable : False at 100% ! there is a yellow triangle at the corner of each gear type every time you loot something new and a red or green arrow to indicate if the main stats is better or not compare to what you're using.
Teleport : I don't see the difference between teleporting to a flag compare to the entrance of a mission / safe base, it's just a teleport
Enemy AI : you're playing at low level Tier. honestly tell me which mission/CP are really a problem in Div 2 under lvl 7 normal mode ? In div2 I didn't die before level 30 or 40. I would even say that Outriders seems harder than Div at the same level.
Boss to easy : on your video we can clearly see that you nearly died fighting a boss,.
Devs said that the highest the Tier the harder are the enemies… they can't make thing impossible to complete solo at low level otherwise people won't like it. Low level mission are there to make you understand your skill, how and when to use them. I played several boss with another friend and the enemies are much harder than solo.
Cut scenes and shaking camera : 100% false on PC – I've not experienced a single problem during cut scenes. Do you play on console ? seems like to me base on the video.
Something Div doesn't have is interaction with NPC during missions dialogue, you can choose to ask question etc. rather that seeing your character staying silence like an idiot. I tmake the game more immersive as you feel like being in the game not just receive order an go out to execute (Div 2).
I'm not saying that it's the game of the year but all Div 2 who played it like it and will pre-order it.
That being said, I do respect your opinion and not everybody have ot like this game.
Hold up, as I'm picking apart what he is saying about quality of life changes and comparing it to the division. He is talking about in order to fast travel to location's, he doesn't like having to plant flags to open up fast travel to that location, you should be able to open up the map and just go, what the hell do you think opening a new hub in the division is and having to search for that building and door in order to open that fast travel location? Huh same concept different way of doing it.
Did this dude play the game? lol
Felt the same way, after playing it.
It literally shows you picking up in the video with it saying and showing what you picked up lmao are you blind?
I love the part towards the end where he is talking boss mechanics and being in a room with the boss at the end and you would have mobs come in as well and it was cover to get behind and that is it and once again compared it to Division. Well the first boss in the Division, you come out ontop of a roof, drop down and you have air conditioners and ducts to hide behind in a square room with a boss that has duck and hide mechanics and a few mobs come out to fight. Same concept yet this game did it wrong? It's an intro boss to let you get used to the game. This game has
severallooters shooter mechanics that it has gotten from other games or inspired it. Made the comment he doesn't like the anesthetics because it reminded him of mass effect. So you don't like it because it is futuristic with a planet and multiple areas, forest, underground, etc where as division plopped you into New York and DC. location doesn't make it a bad game though you just enjoy more current world and not futuristic.Hate those dumb grenades all the time when your in cover.,aiming is bad,movement is so annoying
This game is extremely fun. Don’t compare them because I see this game in a class of its own.
You were correct on the cove to cover movement which got me kill countless times during the demo.
Plane and simple, this game feels so generic. This should have been a playstation 2 and xbox360 game. This is so horrible and for people to come on and defend this trash ass game really shows how simple minded you are.
Trouble is everyone is comparing it to the division ,think of it as new game ,everyone is obsessed
Gosh, if you hate the movement here then you will love Breakpoint. Lol.
this Games insulting lol
I have tried the game and i loved it but there is some things that they need to they a look at, i was trying diferent sensitivity numbers on my ps5 i just could not get the right one thats a big disadvantage against pc players, making cover to cover needs to improve because in most cases it make you an easy target they need to take a look ok how it works ok division , and for sure if they add a pvp zones like division this game would be a masterpiece , game has a lot of potential
I'm playing on PS5 and I on my game it does tell me what Luke dropped and what is new in my inventory. It has a little triangle icon on the top right-hand side of each new piece of loot that I have not looked at yet. It will even tell me what category the new piece of loot is in. Whether it is a weapon a helmet or gloves Etc
Stop the cap
OK I want to discuss two topics did he just individual has said you’re an Xbox guy can you play on Xbox how do you not play gears of war and furthermore that division if you’ve gone through that game from division one or Division II you should not be complaining those two games were absolutely terrible and I’ve got a 3000 hours in each game now for the man for the more you guys are being transparent very transparent what game they built this is the gears of war division destiny all three phases it’s a little shorter all they need to really do is add a foview slider on this game fix a little bit of bugs the game will be good
Cause you can’t play the game thats why this game is better than any game came out
You will lose subs,for being a potato.
My new loot shows up in my inventory highlighted in yellow🤔🤔🤔🤔
Ah epic it’s not a cover based game everyone knows/have this knowledge Thtz da main topic n why it’s diff from every other cover beaded game this game is better than div2 by far and I’m a day 1fan
Yea the camera shake was weird.
Janky controls and camera movement. Cover transition feels off. I'll pass a pre order @ $60, but would wait & pay $25 for it next winter sale.
Same here.. I don't like the movement..
Excellent, please stay away from this game. We don't want you being part of it.
I think the game is ok…
Loot system is meh
Movement is rlu clunky
Combat is ok…it s mostly about spamming ur abilities atm
I m definetly not gonna buy this game at launch for full price cuz it s not worth if there won t be pvp…atleast in my opinion
I d give this game 7/10
of course you arent pre ordering. Youre a Division fanboy who is still deluding himself than Red Storm isnt going to give you a minimum viable product moving forward considering Massive has moved onto Avatar and Star Wars. Division 2 is dead as a door nail.
This man does not take advantage of the roll…
Movement is excellent.
The game not worth it 70 dollars or euro 30 it is decent price.
That good news if you not buy this game🤣👍🏼
