    Lol at The Outer Worlds.

    I mean, a perfectly enjoyable game but one with limited replayability and combat could be a bit of a slog sometimes. Probably not deserving of this expensive an advertisement for a game that has, afaik, no meaningful fanbase. Though I guess it sold well enough that supposedly there will be a sequel, so maybe that's why they're doing this.

      There is hunger for bethesda-like games but beth is trash at making them now. Expanding on the work they did in the first title along with their internal tools until they're at feature-parity is a good path to competing with them. The Outer Worlds team are more creative than Bethesda, they created a legitimately new IP with lore and likeable characters and story which is something Bethesda utterly failed at with Starfield.

        The people really want a shared setting where they can both play a character (or at least, have a free form levelling up experience) where they can upload their own content and it's relevant to their friends.
