I will recommend: Outriders (when it's fixed)

- Outriders is one of the most fun, most complete and most refreshing looters I've played. But damn if it isn't broken AF atm.

Chapter 1: Anthem
Plan on buying in a couple of months
Won't be taking your recommendation, regardless if it's fixed mate. Plenty of better games coming out
"I will recommend Outriders, when it's fixed" You're a funny guy lmao Not long ago, you were up this game's ass, even despite the obvious issues in the demo. Ooookay, Skill Up. Whatever you say. xD
MSI GS line or GTFO
I got to the 10 minute mark of this video and noticed it was 47 minutes long and thought, "well, I'll drop a like and move on to something else in a bit." I then got to the 45 minute mark, and I couldn't believe I spent the better part of an hour so effortlessly on a video for a game I more than likely will not play. You, sir, are a mastercraft example of great writing, pacing, and editing.
👍
Ur reading my mind
@Pikabloop its 47min for me too o_0
And you, sir, absolutely fucking suck at managing your time.
lol. yeah, im not really a gamer but I watch everything Ralph does as soon as it drops.
Surprised you didn't even mention autoloot. I feel like it's a core part of that always move forward mindset. You don't have time to loot when you're ripping and tearing.
I didn't know this was a thing until my friend asked me why I was walking around looting.
I've missed these long reviews. There's something about them that I just love a lot.
Yeah me too. I know they take tons of work so he needs to pick the right games, but if Ralph has a lot to say about a game his reviews are usually really really well communicated and engaging.
I hope he covers more genres in the future, the looter and live service stuff is getting a little exausting
@@PantsaBear unfortunately it's the genre most big releases are aiming for these days
Same if a review ain’t like 30 mins or more it ain’t worth it
That's true🥺
@@beast667 I know, he still has to cover them, I just think they've been getting his most extensive coverage as of late. I kinda miss the passion games he used to make vids on. Narita Boy was refreshing as well tho so we'll see
I like that this game doesnt demand you play hundreds of hours to get drip fed power. That there's a clear end to the experience.
Except they’re slowing progression now...
@@solarplexus7 Still a experience that closes, even with the nerfs. This game is far from others like Destiny where you need to put in those hours or you fall behind.
Thanks for describing Destiny lol
@@solarplexus7 its not even that much slower
@@dblundz so are you playing the campaign after the nerf update? Do you still feel strong and op during it? I'm asking because I'm playing the beta and I'm having a blast, but the update is making me hesitate from buying the full version
Oh shit, another 50 minute Looter Shooter review by Skill Up!
Time to get the Pizza and coke ready.
Edit: fuck y'all these cocaine jokes aint funny
I never watch a long skillup without a meal lol
Honestly i was gonna see this now but i think i'll wait until it's lunch or dinner time, it's worth the wait.
I hate the fact that I was eating pizza and drinking coke when this video coincidentally popped up in my recommended
Nothing like eating a cheesy slice of pizza after doing a few lines
@@blahblahblah9267 i was waiting till someone intentionally made a cocaine joke out of it
Highly recommended giving this one a brief updated review with the New Horizon update. Pretty much all the game's gripes are getting fixed
Is it a decent game for offline solo play?
@@thewarriors3048 unfortunately it can't be played offline. But it's great for solo
I’ve gone back and loving it.
@@chillhour6155 bought it with this deal, ery worth so far. Combat is super fun
Completely disagree in every way. This game is dead.
Why do I keep doing this to myself? - Any looter shooter player
The feels...
It's a good kind of hurt.
@@warhawkbm no it isn’t.
More like why do I play other looter shooters when I have Borderlands lol? Borderlands is still the king of looter shooters hasn't been dethroned.
I look forward to a re-review of this after the new transmog, endgame rebalance and all the rest they have done. If you get time Skill up
You're reviews are second to none. You've got a way to make any review such entertainment even if the game isn't for me
One of the things I love about the healing and sense of momentum in the game is that it's easy to turn a near-failure into a rousing success. I have, many times, been down to my last few hitpoints, fighting desperately to survive, and managed to just squeak by enough to use a power that turned the tide and let me beat the map. That kind of ability to turn around in the fights means that you never feel like you've hit a point from which you can't recover and always know there's a route to victory if you can find it.
I really like the world/lore they set up. The aggressive gameplay. Yea rough launch but the IP has strong legs.
I’ve got strong legs. But, man, am I unstable.
I dunno. The opening immediately killed my interest in any characters they set up, since anyone you try to get to know just fuckin dies within an hour or three, and the mass-effect-style world they set up at the opening was way more interesting than the 'grrr mud monster grunge tribal warfare' generic shit they quickly swapped it out with.
@@megalomaniacalHalide Honestly I felt teh same way, but the story unironically gets better and more interesting and you do end up with a consistent cast of side characters. You also leave the "generic tribal warfare" (that i quite liked actually, trench town was sick) behind a few hours into the story and start really exploring further into uncharted territory.
PS: read the journal entries, full of great world building.
I'm glad to hear someone actually say good stuff about the game. There are some technical issues but they are getting fixed and, as you say, the gameplay is a lot of fun. As to the story, it isn't particularly original but the characters and dialogue are really well written, so you enjoy engaging with the story for that reason alone. The loot system is fricking awesome and I love changing my builds and mixing mods to create the coolest play styles.
I have to say, I am loving this game. I played through the campaign solo, and started the expeditions solo. I still have to level the other classes, and I really want to. It has bugs, and room to improve, but I am truly enjoying it.
I actually like the no hud bug, it makes it seem very cinematic i wish they would add the feature to be able to see status affects and health bars, then hide your abilites unless they are on cooldown
I would love to see your take on Monster Hunter Rise after your fantastic MH:W video!
his monster hunter video was the first one I saw :)
I would love to see Monster Hunter Rise launch on PC already!
I need MH Rise review!!!
Now! Lol
@@AnnaCurser early 2022. Sucks, but it runs great on the Switch
Yes
The final point is pretty important I think. Every game doesn't have to be a "thousands of hours"-type of thing. I love me my Path of Exile or Destiny 2 grind and how they keep me coming back in different ways, but that doesn't mean I can't stop and appreciate a game like Outriders where the idea is that I play it a lot for a month then call it a day.
Fuck that I want more content I paid for
@@rhycebell9832 What "more" content did you pay for? As far as I know, they were pretty transparent with what you got with your purchase.
No the point is why would I want a game that a gonna be dropped so quickly by devs fuck that pointless mate
@@rhycebell9832 Have they given the community any indication that they intend to throw the game in the bin in a near future? If they've succeeded in making a game that seems to be quite well received, they would invest more in it if anything.
I was just saying that it would be pointless if they did that
Inventory wipe issue is real guys... have to stop playing my main character till its fixed
Never had that problem and never will. Stop spooking people
@@Adama.1 it’s a confirmed issue that got worse with the patch that was supposed to fix it. People should be spooked.
False. Stop fear mongering 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Sorry it happened to you, not me tho🤣
@@tjlevey378 explain that do all the people showing their inventories wiped, even their equipped gear
What I love about this game is that your really get to see how much stronger your character has become. If you know what you are doing you can make you character insanely powerful. The murder counts can be insane.
But it's usually tied to your build. One time you spend 5 minutes to kill the Shamans in the campaign with Tool of Destruction and after that you one shot a Tier 12 expedition boss together with the whole room with one Cold Snap, it's the little things in life :D.
@@Relhio Its the joy of the build. For me it's about making the enemy burn and bleed. This game can be played tactically.
It so good because it gives you the freedom to play in many ways.
So in today's episode of "looter shooter reasons for failure": bugs
There is an inventory glitch right now that can erase your entire inventory lol. I am glad that I didn´t play since they applied that patch lol
all caused by being always online
@@livinginpatheticera3867 “Im 12 and Im very smart.”
Did your mom tell you how special you are today yet?
@@Aliens1337 Ad hominem.
It actually is terrible even without the bugs honestly. End game content being time limit based only is a major issue.
In a post Anthem, Cyberpunk 2077, and Destiny 2 launch Era, I've become immune to hype trains and next big things. I'm glad the skills I learned are treating me well.
I'll read that book in a heartbeat
Skillup, the guy who plays broken looter shooters at launch so you don't have to..........Even though you already have 50 plus hours launch week
"it's like carnage for 10-15 minutes then its over" sounds like my sex life.
more like 10-15 seconds in my case
1 min for me
Give me your stroke game secrets
Don’t worry as long as you support multiple play throughs
Huge if true
I feel like this is the first game since destiny 1 that feels like it's a complete package that they can add onto
Not gonna lie i thought you were gonna name your memoir “skill up and the ship metaphors”
How about "shill up and skip the metaphors"....I'll see myself out.
@@whiskeyearned1543 ..that sounds better than the one i came up with lol
That's gonna be in his quote compilations book.
I think it's time for a revisit. Huge fixes, got it on sale and I absolutely hooked, no more scratching my arms to get that Destiny 2 high.
I can't wait to buy your book, Skill Up for I too, am a dumbass
Absolutely agree re: the fragmented nature of the travel. One lucky saving grace for me is that I usually don’t mind the bit of down time because the combat is so intense. But would be much better if there was some other actually interesting downtime activity.
A lot of the technical issues come from the fact that it IS a 'games as a service' game. you have to be connected to their servers to play, if the servers are down it is impossible to play - you are paying to use there service.
You're obviously a sheep who lacks an education, it's spelled their*, not there.
This game has a lot of flaws, but for the love of god- it’s so addictive. It provides what Anthem didn’t- loads of awesome loot, fantastic classes and the amount of customisation is making this game worth the money despite its problems.
Yeah I am really enjoying it too, the two main issues for me are connectivity which was woeful at release and the sound cutting in and out at times can be very annoying but I agree for all its flaws it is a fun and addictive game if you like looter shooters.
_Unless_ the shallow gratification of getting lots of extrinsic rewards (loot) thrown at you doesn't affect your enjoyment of the intrinsic game design at all - like for me, then this game is just another 6/10 "eh, it's decent" shooter among the loot of them. (Not trying to shit on you, though; I'm glad if you're enjoying the game.)
Enjoying this game alot. I've only had a couple freezes. A fresh install on a new Series x had absolutely no problems all day. Looks fantastic. None of the issues Ralph talked about have appeared. I've played it using my phone for internet and still not the level of problems I hear about. As far as bullet builds, a reddit poster mention Devastator Warden build. You're almost unkillable! Awesome build.
@@pavementsailor are you playing solo? If so, you’ll run into far less issues than matchmaking or playing with friends. When playing solo I haven’t experienced any bugs or connectivity issues (online is required). However, matchmaking and playing with friends are $hit!!
@@AniGaAG "not trying to shit on you, but kinda do" thats what you did with that comment.
Anti live service requires an always online connection.
its like they said its not a live service just to cover their ass
> "Not a live service game"
> Is an always online looter shooter with endgame world grind, RPG elements, and coming DLC.
lol
@@MageroSTC live service means that the game has seasons and content added in cycles (like destiny or Forza Horizon seasons) what you wrote just describes a looter shooter or hack n slash game
@@MageroSTC so you consider everything that receives updates, dlc, and expansions post launch as a live service huh :^)
@@nikolowolokin I mean, if it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck, and the only distinction is no actual schedule for its updates and no microtransactions... uh, I mean, feather color, then yeah. It's a duck.
I would really appreciate it if you could come back to this. Your insights are super useful
If you're watching this video today, virtually all of the major issues have been fixed, and the loot drop rates have been buffed with the most recent patch. Definitely one of the best looter shooters of the decade.
Is the combat loop improved?
Lol we are only one year into this decade I think that’s a bit early to call.
I mean there’s only like 3-4 real looter shooters ever made. This. Destiny. The Division. And MAYBE borderlands
Can you still vouch for that if you’re playing it now in 23’?
Perfectly said, terrific review without bias. I think you spoke for everyone’s opinions on this game while simultaneously giving the game credit where it’s due. Hope the devs see this and expand on what it does great!
You're gonna be competing with Paul Tassi for that book title.
Indeed. And this is way more Paul's wheelhouse then it is Skillup's.
There are a few things that you do not mention in terms of endgame progression:
1: You can level your gear and raise attributes on the weapons and gear through Zahedi, not only mods
2: Tiago is a vendor that can help you if you are unlucky with drops as he has a rotating gear shops, also for legendaries.
3: Bailey is a vendor where you can trade resources to get access to more titanium.
4: You can grind lower CT expeditions to get more Droppod resources if you are struggeling.
As to your second point, we don't know if/when Tiago's inventory for legendaries will rotate.
I said, out loud, to myself... Alone in my apartment, "OH COOL!" when I saw your review got posted.
Firstly shill up I love your work, your attention to detail your extremely well reasoned, edited and produced content is the gold standard for youtube in my honest opinion. That being said. I honestly cannot understand how youtubers such as yourself and gamers in general have become so comfortable with games being released in such a terrible condition/state (No matter the potential of said game). In almost no other industry can a product be released not fit for purpose and not be lambasted for it (I would call a game breaking bug as your whole inventory and progress being randomly deleted not fit for purpose). How low our expectations of game releases are these days. While I love your enthusiasm for the innovation this game has shown and the potential this game has, I simply cannot understand how gamers/consumers (yourself included) have come to accept games being released in this state. I will NEVER pay full price for a game that is released in this condition (I for the last 10 years have waited to see just how bad the release of a game is before even considering buy it on sale). I will wait for sales and such games these days do not deserve my hard earned dollars for sub par products. I just got sick of all the lies the gaming industry keeps telling it customers/consumers. Shill up if you do read this rant thanks for your time and efforts on your channel I honestly love your work and also thanks for taking the time. Cheers.
Hope you can give us a review for the expansion after it releases. There are many problems you touched on in this review that have already been fixed (bug fixes, toned down snipers, balance improvements, expedition timers removed, legendary item shop, etc).
The expansion sounds like it's trying to really take everything good about the game to the next level and I'm not sure many players ever returned since the big November patch that really ironed out the endgame.
Your character looking so much like you at the 4:00 mark caught me by surprise.
47 minutes? ah yes i wanted a short film
Do like the game, server issues are a mess, (Before launch it was allright, yay review copies?) only had one crash so far
Release the Ralph Cut
Fun Fact: 40m runtime or less is a short. Over 40 minutes is considered full or “feature” length.
All the server issues really made me wish the game had an offline mode.
This get a "wait till its fixed" but CP2077 "delivers" lol
On he played on PC though, the console versions is just unplayable
@@JPOG7TV its not just abt bugs, it's about Half baked or Quarter baked some time RAW uncooked like Police System, over-promised snake oil marketing. No matter u have 3090 CP2077 is a half-baked, bandaged together pile of over-promised lies. They started with RPG but few months before release it turned into an action-adventure open-world game. They literally changed the description on their website I can go on and on. I really appreciate Skillup Reviews and most of the time I have the same sentiment about the game but CP no way in hell it should be given a delivered rating.
Have missed these feature length reveiws 😁 keep them coming Skillup
I'm so glad he mentioned the loading screen thing, it's annoyed as hell to be honest, feel like the designer loves Resident Evil :)
Your videos are so in-depth and worthwhile. I always check this Channel first if I'm looking for a review. Thankfully we like the same type of games!
Solo Endgame Tip (in steps)
1. Instead of playing at higher challenge tier, drop it down to a tier that is easy
2. Farm loot to sell
3. Use the scraps to buy titanium
4. Use the titanium to level up gear in current build (don’t have to keep swapping out gear)
5. Then play on a tier that will increase challenge tier (you’ll notice it doesn’t have to be the highest available tier)
6. Repeat
I love the way you talk about Destiny guns. It’s the thing that always makes me come back
I don't think a game should be recommended when it gets fixed we need higher standards than that for us PC players they're demanding $60 to play a broken game.
Easily the best game reviewer, well done once again. It’s always entertaining to watch and rewatch your reviews over the years (especially the ones for division and destiny).
I feel like talking to someone is a loading screen in itself. It just makes you stand there for like 3 full seconds unable to do anything
You can skip that btw
@@legomocsalex5655 If you skip it, it is 3 full seconds per menu. If you don't skip it, it's like 10 minutes of scinge followed by 10 seconds of something interesting happening that I wish I could have watched without the 10 minute preamble.
Bought it for 17 bucks complete Edition and I am having a blast. Can not stop grinding loot.
its bleak and emotional in the right places at the right times
Another great and thorough review, Skill Up! Really enjoyed it!
Skill Up on a flawed game: "This game is flawed!"
Skill Up on a flawed looter: "This game is flawed, but will totally be good when it's not flawed anymore...!!"
Oh, Skill Up. Your addiction is a cruel mistress, isn't she. x)
Yo that review was so fucking good. I've seen reviews for the last ten years on so many sites and RUclipsrs and this is probably the best and most informative I've heard, and kinda seen cuz I was cooking breakfast while hearing it.
Really phenomenal job man.
>positioned itself as the anti live service game
>requires you to be connected to it's server for single player

Always online is pretty ass.

"DO yOu GuYs NoT hAvE InTerNet"
Good review as always. My friend and I just completed the campaign and did the first 2 expeditions before hopping off for the night. I'm assuming they fixed the vast majority of these technical difficulties by now because I only crashed once and we haven't experienced any of the other bugs mentioned. The only problems we had were that I got disconnected on the spider/worm boss at the volcano and end up fighting it alone and if we ever wiped on a mission, sometimes I would respawn invisible and unable to move for about 2 minutes until my character spawned in. My friend doesn't have the best internet though and I always played in his world so it could've been a problem with that.
I absolutely love this game though. My friend and I are hardcore Destiny players and no-lifed both Division games but this game easily beats all other looter shooters in gameplay and mechanics. The mods and sound design of the weapons are also SO good with the echoing crack of my sniper in canyons and such. I also have no idea how you beat the campaign at World Tier 8 because my friend and I exclusively did the main missions with non of the side missions and we beat the final boss just before we were about to hit world tier 12. We also had auto max world tier enabled so maybe you played some missions at a lower tier and didn't level it up.
But holy crap, this game is DIFFICULT when always playing at max world tier. I played CC/dps with Technomancer while my friend played the fire character and mainly focused on dps and we hit multiple soft walls. It was always a good kind of difficulty though if that makes any sense. It was never the kind of difficult where the game mechanics were screwing us over, it was just the kind of difficult where we had to play smarter and muscle our way through. Take the section where you fight across No Man's Land for example. We hit that section around world tier 6 or 7 if I remember correctly and we just couldn't deal with all the tanky armored enemies pushing us with the snipers on the hill. So I equipped all CC skills, told my friend to dash to the top and take out the snipers while I just kept freezing and stalling the tanky guys. Once my friend took out all the snipers he came up to the tanky guys from behind and we were able to corner them and take them out with relative ease. It was a breathe of fresh air compared to other looter shooters because in something like Destiny, you don't have the option to outflank the enemy or anything, you are just forced into a mindless meat grinder for the vast majority of the time.
I absolutely love this game and I haven't even hit max world tier yet and have only gotten 3 exotics so far. I feel like the build customization at true end game will be awesome and I'll be able to fully flesh out my character and make him personal to my playstyle given the massive variety of mods, skill tree selection and weapon varieties.
"Worst game in stability ever"
*laughs in Cyberpunk 2077
Thanks for this Ralph. I'm really torn on this one. I love sci fi and 3rd person looter shooters, so I feel I should be getting Outriders. I've not finished the full video yet, still watching, but thanks for putting your content out there. Your insight is appreciated. I hope they fix the issues and get more of a following to help rise this game up to where it wants to be. I really want to support Outriders and People Can Fly to encourage 3rd person sci fi game products like this, but am feeling I want to wait for a sale at this point, as I'm happy in League of Legends, and the demo didn't quite appeal as much as I hoped. It's difficult to get sci fi right with a mature feel, in my opinion, but when it is done right, it's glorious. The customisability and instant meaningful loot is an achievement in itself, so thank you for highlighting this. I'm going to watch the rest of the video now. Thanks again for your content.
7:38 Oooh the story. Why couldn't it be a good story? I know stories are hard to get right, especially for mass audiences, but how I crave a good sci fi game story. I will keep dreaming, and writing :D
A non-live-service game that has it's worst aspect.. Always online. You people love your DRM don't you?
I mean they gotta make money somehow, specially since there's no microtransactions
@Breno Ferreira: "there's no microtransactions".....YET. This is Sqaure Enix we're talking about after all.
It's only been proven around fifty fucking times now that piracy has no effect on sales.
ACG: AI is really good
Skillup: AI is really dumb
Glad that got cleared up for me
I say the AÍ is serviceable, they actually know how to flank you
A Boardwalk Empire fan, I dig it.
Having spent over 20 hours playing Outriders myself, I noticed I had a great big smile on my face watching all the pure pwnage gameplay in the review, not even realizing I was watching for over 40 minutes. :D
So glad I decided to take a "wait and see approach" with this game. I was actually quite interested in it, I could see the appeal from the demo, but I also want to play a game that works properly , the cyberpunk 2077 ptsd is real.
Its great already, i wouldnt wait anymore.
Good review 👍, you can always get good end game gear from Bailey or Tiago. Devastator is hard to pump out DPS cause they don't have the weapon power skill *twisted, volcanic, or blighted rounds* but can be done. I main the devastator and I got gold on CT15 solo. Can't do it all the time but still possible.
Outriders be like : i'm your rebound, i dont want to start a relationship( live service) with you. We had a good time, when you get your next girlfriend, you'll think of me from time to time. And thats the end of it!
You had me at the Nucky reference.
Well played.
That run through the options menu was very TB-esque. Would love to see more of that in all your reviews.
What I really got from this video is how much fun the other classes look compared to my technomancer wtf.
Another good review man. The bugs are brutal and the stability is fucked. And one day it could be a super fun game if they are fixed.
Wait let me grab a sandwich this is gonna be good
So you comment on my vid about the demo over a month ago saying “XD u are a joke I guess you gonna keep playing destiny good boy good boy”. All because I had the foresight to see that this game was gonna be a mess. Now here you are excited about shillups review where he points out the problems I explained?? Brain dead.
@@EredinLore Lol
Though I haven't played this game, you make the game sound to me like what I love with Borderlands 3. A game with a decent story but a great loot game that once you grind up to the point where you can easily play through the harder difficulties/missions, there isn't much of a point to keep playing a game until a new DLC comes out. I might try this game if friends play it. Borderlands is one of the only games that I liked grinding for the right loot. It was a lot easier knowing that certain bosses/locations had a better chance of getting what I wanted. So if I do play this, it will probably be a while until I hear better things about it. I'm glad to hear that people like this game, but until a couple people want me to play this game or it has a more compelling loot game, idk if I'll pick it up.
Skill Up reviewing Outriders is basiclly when IGN reviews the annual COD with numerous bad points but still gives it a 9/10.
Ya when it comes to looter shooters skill ups reviews become biased pieces of crap
@@andrewburchett2657 all reviews arr biased. if anything, i commend shill up for wearing his ARPG/mmo-lite/looter shooter bias on his sleeve. i rarely agree with the guy on games, but i value his input and appreciate his talent for writing up a compelling review.
@@andrewburchett2657 all reviews are biased you fool
Looks good. Sounds good. Decent characters, but flawed story. Very good base gameplay and competent enemy variety and level design, but bad AI, lots of loading, clumsy area travel, repetitive, samey weapons, and minor class and ability balance issues. Good length and decent-ish settings. Good class variety.
@@kingkunta3753 He's referring to how SkillUp pretty much describes lootershooters accurately, but recommends them way higher than his descriptions of the games _would imply_ because he's just kinda addicted to the genre - see my other comment above for what exactly I mean.
"THE FUCKERS DID IT" just my absolute favorite line in the whole game
First 45 seconds of the video and I'm already fucking dying of laughter
Skill Up only the reviewer i was waiting for. love that you tested on all Consoles and PCs.
Expeditions absolutely should play same way world tier does.
Sadly the only rewarding end game content is timed, meaning any build that isn't about maximizing DPS is counter-productive. On top of that the newest patch was nothing but nerfs and inventory wipes are more prevalent than they were previously.
Lada kicks ass
The character wipes also happen with people who have never done matchmaking. AND, they said when they restore the gear they can't, and likely wont be the same rolls you had.
I DONT CARE ABOUT ITS PROBLEMS I JUST LOVE THIS GAME PURE AND SIMPLE
That how the fallout 76 community see their game. I mean i don't like this nor that but your is still a very good attitude toward gaming just enjoy the things you like
@@nguyenmanh2101 if it ain't fun for YOU then don't play it. I as well enjoy outriders even with all its really broken bits.
The twist make me want to dive my head out of my apartment, while my friends laugh their asses off.
I know Ralph is Australian, but when he said Mad Max Fury Road was “perfect” he gained a million cool points from me.
In console I haven't had any problems, YET, but it's one of the greatest looter-shooter games I've played. Crafting, perks, classes, the gameplay, it's great. I've heard that some classes are worse in solo play, like the one I'm playing: Technomancer, and yeah it's a bit tough, but in combination of guns, perks and abilities, it really shines, can't wait to play the other classes. I'd recommend it
Technomancer is an absolute beast solo, but you have to build him right.
@@christiaandijkstra2050 with blighted rounds and all that yeah, and it's pretty effective against bosses. But it's a bit tough against enemies in general
My 4yo just yelled out "fuckin bawwwk!" So...yeah....thanks for that lol
Your review video quality keeps getting better and better. TY for this review.
2:39 are strong words coming from a man who put 50+ hrs into cyberpunk...
Cyberpunk wasn't that crashy on PC honestly.
@@raresmacovei8382 Cyberpunk only crashed twice in my entire 75 hours play through. The problem wasn't the bugs, it was the entire game, it's poorly designed "RPG" mechanics & shallow world that served as nothing more than a backdrop, a facade
@@raresmacovei8382 170 hr playthrough on psycho/rtx and not one crash or freeze...
A better comparison would be Fallout 76.
Eli Laskawy I had so many crashes on PS5... and the new patch didn't fix anything. 4 months after release smh
"u spent 40hrs playing your devastator being a tank support engage and beating the game with your friends? congrats..."
'thanks!'
"you big dummy"
'wot???!'
the Pyromancer is exactly what you'd expect. He's romancing Pies ...
ill let myself out
....actual pies or mathematic pi?
2023. This game was great. It was buggy as fuck at launch. It’s amazingly fun. Will play the next one. Without question.
This game is so underrated imo
Literally just bought that laptop yesterday, lol.
How is it i wanna get one
How's your experience?
I am solo Devastator PC player myself. I agree with a lot of what you're saying, though I was surprised to hear how many crashes/bugs you experienced. I've had a mild few, nothing near the degree of Fallout 76, not even close. I guess I'm lucky.
There are a lot of cool builds out there, like did you know that melee counts as a skill? I've made an insanely fun burst anomaly build around the Untamed Power mod (30% anomaly power as explosion with each skill cast). Add a shotgun with Claymore and Lightning and I've got an insane burst rotation of: Skill, Melee, Shotgun. I just have to figure out how to work survivability in there without lowering my damage too much.
I'm at tier 10 expeditions. My progression has been slow, but steady. Do a few expeditions, tweak my build, try next tier, get 1-shot by an enemy, go back a tier. Rinse and repeat until I can take the next tier. I'm interested in trying other builds, but honestly I'm just having so much fun with my current build.
This game is definitely everything I've always wanted The Division to be in terms of feeling powerful and I know I'm not even using the best build or class. I don't think it's about power necessarily for me so much as awesome abilities. Like could you imagine if The Division had that time bubble? or the ability to fly up and then crash land into your target? It's freaking awesome.
I have less respect for these devs for lying. "No reskinned/recycled content" Half of the story and expeditions are literally recycles of each other. Even with all the issues fixed, this is not a $60 game. $40 at best. Story starts off good, but then the story falls flat, characters fall flat, no sense to anything, dialogue is ass, and the cutscenes are so unfinished/pointless.
An example of him talking about needing the specific gear is with the devastator bleed build. Its a set of legendary armor items that devastators need to be on an equal footing as other classes, and there is no way to specifically farm it.
Any plans to re-visit this game after the new update? Curious to see how significant the improvements are
13:33 "Jebus played Outriders" XD
Its worth supporting this game for the developers attitude toward and respect for their players alone.
The game is a technical mess. Real nice that the team seems transparent, but you dont respect players releasing a game in this state.
Best review by far on this game. Great content as always!
With all the nurfs naw I'll pass on this one you been down this road neo we know where it ends
Played this game for three days straight, and as someone who’s super into looter shooters like borderlands, I’m honestly getting super into it .
Good ol' "shooting numbers out of enemies" game.
