Great, funny RPG that was ignored because it launched near the disruptive Disco Elysium.
Also triggers ancaps, even though you can join the company's side.
It was not ignored because of Disco Elysium. In fact I had never even heard of DE myself until like last year.
The reason it was "ignored" (it really wasn't though) is that it was a pretty mid game.
ETA: it was also hyped up to be the "Bethesda Killer." IGN was literally posting articles and videos saying things like "Bethesda should probably start looking for a new job."
Ironically I heard more good things about Outer Worlds than from Starfield.
I remember this game being very hyped before release. When it released it was a very poorly optimized game on PC, don't know about consoles.
I played it for a good 10 hours, hoping it would get good. It never did, so I dropped it. I still find fallout 3 and new vegas more fun than this.
The base version worked great for me and I have a pretty bad CPU, Ryzen 3200G, can't say about this remaster.
New Vegas is better but fallout 3 is still the only one I find no joy in and hate every character.
