Why play this?!
Shockingly bad game
I thoughts this was going on the other channel?
if you told me this was destiny I would totally believe you
to be fair I don't play destiny I've just seen my friends play it
if you play a game and complain about it, do yourself a favor and simply stop.
Stream starts at 0:37 🙂
The story of Outriders was weirdly similar to Mass Effect Andromeda..
This game’s shit
I see from Nicks attempt to guide Yahtzee thru this game, it was obviously very memorable.
Oh,wow. 3rd person shooter with bloated healthbars, chest-high walls and hordes unimaginitive identically looking grunts. Goodie.
18:18 "This game feels like an old school shooter, like from 360 era".
… Is this what it feels to get old? When something that was a thing in your late teens is now considered "old school"? I hate to quote Yahtzee under the video he's in, but: "i have skid marks in my underwear than are more "old school" than 360!"
The best that looter shooters can offer, inoffensively mediocre.
It's like Gears of War had a super easy mode… and you can randomly find things that make it even easier.
My brains-off shooter is two titles really. World War Z and Nazi Zombie Army 4. Story: Who gives a fuck. Progression: token at best. Staying alive as a point of 'pride': yeah, no one cares. Mindless fun with various guns and an enemy that doesn't need a justification for getting murderized: In spades.
In short, two of the best games to zone out to after a day of responsibilities.
The funny thing about this stream is that I played through the demo as a Pyromancer and one of my coworkers played through the entire game as a Devastator. XD
Yahtzee remembers minor details from the beginning of the mediocre plot.
Nick admits he didn't pay attention to the story until the end.
I hated this game.
I just really hate when games only idea for increasing difficulty is making the enemies just absolutely tank bullets. Slowing strafing while unloading a full magazine into a basic enemy just isn’t engaging to me.
does nick like anything?
The secret to understanding this game is to remember that it isn't a game like destiny or anthem.
It's diablo as a 3rd person game. The difficulty tiers, the loot economy and the build meta are basically diablo clones.
Things this game got right.
The loot system is excellent. You can modify things to fit your style easily. You can easily clear your inventory of trash with a couple of clicks.
The abilities feel powerful and have fast cooldowns so you can really go crazy.
The healing mechanism for each class promotes aggressive flashy gameplay.
What they got wrong.
The handling feels clunky and from an earlier gen, at least on ps4. The game geometry is poorly designed and makes fast paced fights difficult to manage. (You get stuck on stuff a lot).
The enemy ai doesn't improve with difficulty, they just get more spongy
spoiler: yahtzee fires his layzor
When will be finally Zero Punctuation on Cracktorio
This is a great game stream to put on as audio only.
