Epic Free Game (til 26 Dec 2023, 10am ct)
Lost in transit while on a colonist ship bound for the edge of the galaxy, you awake decades later only to find yourself in the midst of a deep conspiracy threatening to destroy the colony. Explore the various planets and locations of Halcyon, including the mysterious Gorgon Asteroid and delightful distilleries of Eridanos. As you encounter various factions, all vying for power, the character you decide to become will determine how this player-driven story unfolds. (Includes all dlc.)
(Geeky note: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. This game isn't for everyone but considering that this is free, you should definitely grab it if you're interested. It's made by the people who did Fallout New Vegas (which was not Bethesda) and it's got a quirky sense of humor. While overall I think it's a great game, I think it's real strength is in the character-work for the npcs.)
#free games roundup#i would die and kill for pavarti#i think an article about her is the only gaming article i've read the comments on#and everyone was just being super cute and kind and no one was being an asshat#this is because you'd have to be a monster to not love parvati#also i cannot recommend enough that you just follow the main quest until you get to parvati#i'm serious that the character work is the best part and so you want an npc *cough*parvati*cough* with you asap#did i literally restart the game at some point specifically to go back and get parvati right away#because i was sad that i'd missed her reaction to some things#of course i did she's awesome and i love her#oh and for anyone wondering about the comparisons between outer worlds and new vegas#outer worlds is not a wide open place to explore#and it's got a very different feeling to the world#(outer worlds has this kind of nihilistic silly humor to it)#also the inevitable comparison to starfield: i like outer worlds a lot better#starfield is big but it's so empty and what is there is the same thing over and over again#outer worlds is smaller but what is there is imo more interesting than 99% of what i saw when i played starfield
