In this day and age you don’t need to own the game to be a able to experience the story and graphics and nearly everything else perfectly legal. Thousands of people are playing it on Twitch and YouTube and other streaming platforms.

It is a good game, from the four ratings I would align myself with the 77% from Steam.
My biggest critic so far, 12h in, would be that the language they use and the way they speak is way to modern for a fantasy game for my liking. It often makes it a bit hard to immerse into the game for me when they use 21th century words or concepts or mannerisms.
When I got into the company I was allowed to use Linux. But a few years ago the company was bought and merged with a much bigger company and the new IT policy made Windows mandatory.
Just having a copy of a Game doesn’t help at all with preservation when the games have DRM. Preservation is more then just safe storage, preservation also means to ensure that the content can be used by future generations. This is in general not really an issue with physical media like sculptures, books or paintings. But with digital media this often means that the data has to be copied to other media, convert the data to other formats, or write/use emulators or even rebuild the engine of the game to ensure that a piece of software written now can still be used by whatever hardware/software architecture is in use 20, 50 or 100 years from now. And such preservation has to start when the data is fresh and new, not in 50 or 100 years.
All fair and good arguments, so no flamewar today. Sorry 😜
Just as an addition, nothing against ZFS it is a great FS, but BTRFS can this too.
The game is very much playable, I have sunk 200+ hours into it and still have very much fun playing it. Not every game has to be for everyone.
It is not really IRL when you put tags and graffiti on photos, even when it is combined with AR.
It is so sad that they killed Ingress with their shitty new scanner app. It is out for years now and is still running like crap on my 2 year old upper class android phone. I really loved that game
Yeah, the Unreal Engine comparison is what I normally do. But change is the spice of life 😁
Yes, and the German city of Cologne is the same since it was built by the romans. Because when the name and the foundations are the same over the ages then everything is the same, no major changes are possible ever!
Not better, but they are different kinds or RPG. Both are open world action RPGs yes, but CDPR makes highly story driven games when Bethesda makes sandbox style RPGs where the story is only framing all the mechanics and possibilities. In Bethesda games I can roleplay my characters, in The Witcher I can roleplay as Gerald.
Yes, and Unreal Engine 5 is still the same old pig with makeup Unreal 1 Engine from decades past. Same logic
The Outer Worlds is a good and fun game, for one fast and very linear playthrough with a great storytelling. But it has no replayability and it has zero possibilities for modding. It is not in the same league as Skyrim or Fallout, not even Starfield.
It would be great if it would interface the disk drive to the cores, but this is not loading the game from a disk but using the disk drive to tell the MiSTer which core and game to start from its regular storage.
What is next? Starting a game with a rotary phone? In the end it is again and again the same tapto gimmick, with another device emulating the NFC reader.
I never said it is the best game they ever made, but it is the best NASA punk space RPG they ever made 😁
I have started a complete new game 2 days ago and have again a lot of fun with Starfield. Can’t wait to see all the new content from the DLC.
I would say that Starfield is the best NASA punk planet exploration RPG Bethesda has ever made
Not for emulators, but with Everdrives for example it is possible to play it on native hardware and there load times matter. So improving loading times is a great feature
I had both but the teen drama sounding parts were less then the general but I have not yet played much further so not sure how it gets later on the game.
