Review: Outcast - A New Beginning

The world is also beautifully designed, with each village having its own architecture and style while the world map is covered in points of interest and different biomes, providing gorgeous views from just about any spot in the landscape. Combat is also great fun, especially when stumbling on a particularly effective gun combination or figuring out how the latest upgrade fits into the flow of the next hostile encounter.

Outcast: A New Beginning (Demo + Review)

Entwickler: Appeal Studios; Publisher: THQ Nordic 15.3.2024

Nach "Outcast" (1999), "Outcast: Second Contact" (2017) erscheint ab Mitte Mai 2024 der neueste Titel: "Outcast: A New Beginning".

Im Gametest greife ich hier auf eine recht umfangreiche Demoversion zu. Der Titel klingt zunächst vielversprechend. Denn mit den bisherigen Titeln ist ein finanzieller Erfolg bislang ausgeblieben, obwohl bereits das erste Game die Community z.T. beeindruckt hatte. Manche titulieren den Auftakt als "Kultspiel".

Beim zweiten Teil des Computerspiels, zwar im Vergleich mit wesentlich weiter entwickeltem Design, bleibt der große Erfolg auch aus. Über die Schwächen habe ich bereits an verschiedenen Stellen berichtet (Vgl. Sie auch mein Youtube Video mit 10 Minuten Gameplay).

Neuanfang: in der Spielmodi (Erkundung, Kampf, Story) kann man in der Demo Version die neue Spielwelt testen und etwas kennenlernen. Dieses Angebot des Publishers finde ich sehr großzügig.

Was fällt auf? Kurze Stichworte liste ich hier nach ca. 4 Stunden Gameplay im Folgenden auf.

Cutter Slade hat nun auch eine erweiterten Jump- und völlig neuen Flugmodus; das ist in der Steuerung etwas ungewohnt, birgt aber neue Potentiale im Sinne von Erkundung und z.T. schneller Fortbewegung

die Spielwelt auf dem fiktiven Planeten "Adelpha" (wie in den Vorgängern) sieht sehr gut aus, Details sind noch komplexer geworden

auch der etwas weiter gealterte Protagonist ist in seiner Bewegung etwas besser animiert

endlich gibt es eine Karte, die wichtige Ziele markiert und wichtige Informationen über Ziele und Aufgaben anzeigt; hier lagen bislang sehr große Schwächen

auch die anderen für den Charakterausbau relevanten Menüs wirken ganz okay

zu Beginn gibt es ein paar Geschicklichkeitsanforderungen mit dem Flugmodus, hier soll man den Flug eines Sternchens verfolgen; mir gelingt die Steuerung mit gleiten, ab- und absteigen nicht; da auch der Flugmodus zeitlich beschränkt ist; hier benötigt man wohl eine größere Lernkurve (besser Controller als Maus und Tastatur?)

in dem Modus "Kampf" kann ich einen zu zerstörenden Generator nicht lokalisieren, möglicherweise liegt hier ein Bug vor

im "Story" Modus gibt es wohl die üblichen NPCs, die eine Vielzahl an Quests auslösen; die Charaktere sehen aus meiner Sicht viel besser aus; es ist in der Demo aber nicht abzuschätzen, ob wie in den Vorgängern lange Questketten mit umständlichen Lauf- und Reisewegen erfolgen werden

für das Kampfsystem scheinen nur 2 Waffen zu existieren, das finde ich schade; im Vorgänger hat mit die Waffe mit den grünen Energiesalven in der Performance am besten gefallen, da reichen die Salven der beiden Waffen nicht heran

Fazit

Wenn sich im neuen Teil auch dramaturgische Sequenzen etwas intensiver ergeben und die "Laufketten" kleinteiliger Aufgaben nicht zu langweilig sind, dann könnt "Outcast: A New Beginning" vielleicht der beste Teil werden und erfolgreich sein.

okay the face-to-face and banter between Arbiter and Atriox we got at the end of Outcasts was exquisite, but now I feel kinda bummed we’ll probably never get to see the follow-up

#halo #halo outcasts #halo outcasts spoilers #halo arbiter #the arbiter #halo atriox #atriox #my posts #my post #idk how Infinite ends ‘cause I’ve been procrastinating going beyond the first level and now my save file’s probably lost #but even if Atriox survived Infinite I doubt we’ll ever see these two confront each other again #if they relegated Jul to being killed via cutscene by New Guys that had no investment into him #and evil!Cortana off screen before the game even begins #then I seriously doubt Atriox would be treated any different

think i'm going to write an analysis about the usage and significance of biblical names in The Ancient Magus' Bride.

#mahoutsukai no yome #ancient magus bride #thoughts #biblical names #there are actually quite a lot of them #and they all fit so very well #in some very surprising ways #from seth (new beginnings and second chances)#to ruth (undying loyalty)#to joseph (outcast and punished for a crime he couldn't understand)#to simon (listening and being torn apart)#and beyond #(these are just the very basics there's way more going into all of these)#all queued up

Plotted starter for @therooftopsofketterdam

For the first time in years, Kaz slept relatively peacefully. Rays of the morning sun trickled in through his window and, gradually, he stirred. When his eyes fluttered open, the events of the previous night hadn’t caught up with him yet, so not seeing Inej laying across from him didn’t initially strike him as worrisome. After a few long seconds, however, it all came flooding back, as did the realization that she had been here and she knew everything. Kaz had said things that he’d never even dreamed of saying out loud and he was glad for it.

Inej had been here, she'd come back to warn him about Pekka Rollins' return — he still needed to piece together the intricate details of the loose plan outlined in his head. After all, he'd known the man he'd finally brought to his knees would return eventually and Kaz had mapped out various scenarios for when he would. However, Pekka Rollins had taken his sweet time and it had made Kaz begin to consider that perhaps he would stay away for good, but ... of course, he was wrong. Still, he could push those thoughts onto the back burner for now as he wanted to bask in the fact that Inej had returned and, despite her long time away, she still wanted him.

The previous night, he'd held her, he'd even kissed her like he'd fantasized about doing for years. He'd shown her what he'd built in place of the Menagerie and, to his relief, it had meant as much to her as he'd hoped it would. Now, however … the realization that, while she’d fallen asleep curled against him last night, she was no longer beside him and it sent surges of emotion through him, one after the other — panic, confusion, the deep loneliness Kaz had become so accustomed to … it all tried to swallow him whole. Not only had Inej set off, but so had the others. Jesper and Wylan had always been near by, but … they had their own lives to live.

He jerked upright and let his eyes sweep over the room, seeking to find her hiding within the shadows, hoping his groggy senses hadn’t picked up on her presence, but … Inej wasn’t here. Where had she gone? Had she decided to leave after all and if so, what would that mean? Kaz’s mind cycled through the possibilities for a solid few seconds before he heard a faint sound somewhere behind him and he twisted around to glance at the window — and it was just in time to catch sight of Inej climbing through, the morning sun shining behind her. A slow, heavy breath escaped him as he felt a sweeping sense of relief … and a sense of embarrassment that he’d gotten so worked up when all she’d done was leave to fetch some breakfast.

Kaz caught her eye and the sheer warmth he exuded in her direction … it was just as unusual for him as he was sure it was for her to see first thing in the morning. A lazy smirk curled at the left side of his mouth, one dark brow arching as his gaze briefly left hers to regard what she’d brought along with her. ❝Peckish already?❞ He asked, his voice lower and more rough than usual with sleep.

The Familiar but Alien World of Adelpha Calls Again in Outcast: A New Beginning

Adelpha is a big world that's still a beautiful place to explore even if it's seen better days, and while it took well over twenty years to get back to the planet, Cutter's resurrection promises to be an impressive introduction to new players and a welcome return for the original game's fans.
