I'm not one to give reviews or ever 10's when it comes to stuff. Especially media. Speaking of media; Media isn't a one size fits all. Some movies you will never be able to enjoy. Some games we can never quite get behind. Rpgs have become stale, unfinished, and leave us wanting more and more from them over time. Even with a million expansion or key features that many gamers crave are still left out. Outward breaks from this patternized behaviors and removes many dependencies we have leaned on for the sake of an immersive and classic experience. It is most definitely a cult following game. Yes, the sequle looks 10x more promising. However, I haven't been so ensnared my a game since I was a child. zits tough, it goes from peaceful to gritty, no one holds your hand and it is a sandbox in the largest of definitions. The story can wait, take the time and effort enjoy the world. There are no levels, only literal experience and artifacts for you to either sell or use to your aid. It isn't skyrim or souls, but if you do enjoy souls but wish souls had a bit more world building and immersive experience where you play as someone relatively...normal. This is it. You go from 0 and have to build to 100. I highly recommend this game for a co-op experience, at least for the first playthrough. However the game stands alone in its own class of rpg that no longer exists with large developers. It is a lite-dnd experience that delivers a promise of hardwork and research for a even bigger pay-off.
