RPG Outward Gets Definitive Edition on PS5, Out Next Week

That’s expensive DLC for the game. Maybe I’ll get on a sale to get the PS5 version. As I recall, loading time could use it.

Must admit, never heard of it!
So is it better now post 6/10 patches?

@Jaz007

not really its around 20 hours, so far better value than a lot of games that are less then 10 for 40-50.

i would rate it a 7/10 bit janky and can be quite hard and doesnt hold your hand. but with the pushsquare score rule of 1 point either way a 7 is about right

Maybe pushsquare can get the info from nine dot studios from me (I give up)
I was aware of the free upgrade for a while but Ive been strggling to find out if Disk owners are eligiable (if they purchase the DLC)

The obvious answer should be yes but you can never be too sure how the PSN system works (whether it recognizes you own the base game if you have it physically)

I got the version with both DLCs included in a PSN sale a little while ago for like £8. So glad I didn't just grab the base version.

@Futureshark I see a lot of posts complaining about additional bugs after each patch, so I'm guessing it's not any better now.

I’ve had this in the backlog since it’s initial release… and still have no real motivation to play it. Heard it’s decent but the footage I’ve seen just doesn’t inspire a desire to get involved.

I had a weirdly great time playing this on PC after remapping the controls to be more like Dark Souls. Despite the jank, this is one of the few open world games that truly feels like an adventure as you get to grips with its unique systems.

I'm shocked it was first released in 2019 considering how janky the graphics look.

@suikoden Its the first game i really hated so much i just sold because i could not stand the controls. And not holding your hand it just controls terrible. With a terrible explanation/tutorials on how it works that is what i thought about it personally.

@suikoden It's not about the hour conversion, it's about the fact that I think I paid $20 for the game. Since I bought the game for a reduced price, I also want the DLC for a reduced price. To me paying as much for some DLC as the base game doesn't feel right. The DLC on sale for $8 to get the definitive edition feels right to me if saves transfer over.
I enjoy how harsh the game and fulfulls a certain feeling that's hard to find. I think using time as an indicator for how worthwhile a game is a bad idea as it encourages padding. It just depends on the game. Some games need a long run time like Elder Scrolls, and others do better with a shorter runtime like Doom or Dead Space.

@Flaming_Kaiser It expalins the basic systems enough for me, but I enjoyed how it threw my out there without a single clue and a time limit to achieve my goal. It made for a memorable starting adventure in the game to be honest.

I like this game. I’m excited and happy for a ps5 version.
While it is flawed, you can see what they wanted to create.
It is hard,the multi player can be fun .

@Gatatog I probably would have sanapped up that deal.....problem is I actually supported the dev day one both worth base game and the first DLC.

I only found out about the definitive edition a few months ago but I never ever wanted to buy the 2nd DLC (not my cup of tea)

The 2nd DLC along with the complete collection were both on sale just a few weeks ago. I couldnt find out if I just brought the DLC if Id get the definitive edition (having a retail base game) And I didnt want to bay for the base + DLC 1 again based off principal (if only PSN was like steam where you get money off if you own some items in a bundle.......or give me extra copies so I can gift it to someone)

Im just going to have to wait for launch and see if anyone is in the same boat.......then wait for a sale again lol

@Rob3008 The game reaches for a level of ambition on Skyrim levels.
When you realise was the studios first game and then realise its made up of like 10 employees(Was 10 employees a while ago)

I think the Skyrim had 10 "graphic programmers" in their team alone.

You can probably understand why the game has a certain level of jank in all areas

@Jaz007 ai didnt have that feeling i hated it the tutorial made it even worse for me. Its a pity it looked like fun but i just cant play it.

Also if a game is to hard for me to understand how it works then ill rather spend my time elsewhere again just my personal feeling.

I had games that where hard but i could finish them but with this i just could not do it. And if its to hard i can except that too but its no fun and the controls/mechanics dont click with me.
