OUTRIDERS

Good story, nice game play and the tiers were easy to change 1st run through so I could enjoy the story.

Definitely one of the co‑op shooters out there. The story is extremely generic — not terrible, but nothing to write home about — and the gameplay loop doesn’t really change much after the first 2–3 hours. That said, the classes are cool, the abilities make the whole thing a chaotic but enjoyable mess, the gunplay feels great (you can tell it was made by people who know what they’re doing), the difficulty ramps up nicely, and visually it has some pretty decent environments. It’s a shame it was published by Square Enix and made always‑online; it deserved a better fate than it got. Pick it up on sale and play it with a friend. CUTSCENES/10

A nice game for grinders. The story was enjoyable. However, the "end game content" ruins tactical gameplay with mindless mass spawns around the player during expeditions.

루트슈터(약탈 슈팅)장르 매니아라 샀었음. 엔딩보고 딱 캐릭 하나 템 맞추고 나면 할 거 없음. 근데 그 과정 까지가 ㅈㄴ 재밌었다.

7/10

tl;dr -- Outriders is everything I enjoyed from Diablo 3's looting, the "GIT SUM!!" from Gears of War, and the character building from Borderlands. Bonus points that the story is actually sincere...just gotta get through that half hour prologue to find the action. Once you find it, though, it is non-stop. Granted, I'm only on my first character who's probably only about a third of the way through the core campaign, but I am deeply committed to everything Outriders has to offer so far. Also, I am strictly playing solo -- I don't really jive with multiplayer action games -- so I can't speak to the accessibility or balancing of crew concepts, but the structure they've established in combat to let a player feel overpowered when they're in their element yet completely out of their depth when a situation isn't attuned to their build is deeply engaging. Between subtle, stacking variations in skill sets, the various gear options, and the intuitive combat control makes the flow of blowing things to bits in Outriders feel almost like an instinct once you get a handle on what all the numbers actually mean. Everything feels like progression. Even gear you don't like can be turned into materials to exponentially boost that next rifle you find that fits juuuust right into your preferred flavor of violence. At the end of the day, my only complaint is that you can't pause, but it's not such a big deal when combat is broken up into arenas like they do. As long as you don't see red on your radar, you're free enough to go have a bio break at your leisure.
