Comment on Here's what a random person on the internet thought of The Outer Worlds
setsneedtofeed@lemmy.world 7 months agoThe combat was a low point. I spent most of the game up through the finale with a MK2 light machinegun. It was tinkered with and upgraded. My character had no points at all put into gun skills and I still chewed through enemies with ease. Whenever ammo ran low I switched to a MK2 heavy assault rifle.
Even the finale sub-boss robot was pathetically easy to kill.

I think they underdeveloped the science weapons! I started using some too late in the game but some encounters definitley felt “different” to the normal gunplay.

All of the weapons and weapon catoegories felt undercooked. The lack of ammunition differentiation and lack of any real reason to take one type of weapon over another was a problem. The science weapons could have been a lot more.
