Message: <blockquote data-quote="Ruin Explorer" data-source="post: 9437148" data-attributes="member: 18">Based on the previews for Outlaws and what we've seen of this, it's definitely Dragon Effect: Mass Age for me. Almost every single multi-hour played preview of Outlaws seems to be somewhere between mildly critical and damning with faint praise. I expect it'll be a very pleasant but somewhat dull 7/10 game, which I buy on a deep sale a year after it comes out and have a pretty ok if forgettable time with!Whereas DA:VG seems like it'll probably be a pretty goddamn cool story, and the real question will be, will the gameplay and characters be up to scratch? My hope is they are, because they've had a lot of time to work on the game, and it's apparently basically finished now, but they're polishing it until the release on the 31st of October. One thing that makes me very hopeful re: gameplay is them returning to fixed levels/areas, rather than having vast open areas. I worry slightly re: characters because like Andromeda, apparently the first person we recruit like, after the prologue, is a "Peebee-type character" (UGH NO WHY), which to me is like saying the first person we recruit is a "Jar-Jar-type character", but I am praying that this is merely an allusion to them having similar talents (i.e. unlocking mysterious ruins) rather than having similar personalities (Peebee being both obnoxious personality-wise and an awful person, never a great combo).Given Star Wars is out in a couple of weeks and DA:VG not for two and a half months, at least they won't really be competing directly.</blockquote>
