Just couldn’t get into Outer Worlds when I tried it, maybe Obsidian’s style isn’t for me.
It’s a no from me unless reviews are glowing.

Why would I buy games launching on subscription.
Oh that wasn't the question: Zero hype.

I remember how hyped I was that Obsidian was finally releasing a Fallout-like without Zenimax and Bethesda breathing down their neck.
...and then launch day came and I dropped it within 5 hours.
I eventually went back and forced myself to finish it but uh... yeah. Keeping my expectations in check this time for sure.

There should be a “eh, I’ll install it from game pass” option in the poll lol.
I don’t know anything about the game, so I clearly don’t have any interest in it. But I might as well give it a try since it’s ostensibly “free” for me.

I love RPGs so I'm pretty hype for it, that said with the state of current games you never know, so it's a wait and see.
But I will be playing on GP so I'll give it a go regardless.

I loved everything Obsidian did before Outer Worlds, I got about halfway through before I dropped the game because it was just so… boring
Avowed doesn’t give me much hope that they’ve improved, they’re not the same since they canceled Chris Avellone

I’ll check it out on the side of Indy, KDC2, and Ninja Gaiden 2 Black. It looks cool, I just haven’t been keeping up with the game much. Hopefully it turns out great!

My hype is known 
A good capture (rare thing these days) of the demo devs made a while ago just released today. No commentary.
Nothing hits home like a fantasy RPG.

If Indiana Jones didn't get hype, then this game even less. Another example of why marketing matters.

Tophers got it on hes PC and hes Xbox, Gamepass Gamepass.Same for me aswell though bust it on Gamepass, nothing to loose. Will get my cheap and nasty LED lights set on purple as I hear thats the appropriate colour for this type of game and give it a few hours, if i like it I will give it a proper go after my current playthrough of Cyberpunk.

I know I won´t like it, but depending on the opinions I might download it and try it because it´s free on game pass. But I´m totally sure I´m not going to play more than... 1-2 hours?
So I don´t know what to vote

Not enough bisexual lighting tbh. I can hardly even think about gay sex with the lack of romance options.

Those gritty, medievil, cartoonish characters really got my attention....
I'll probably d/l since it's "free" on GP, but...... uggh

I was going to post this, and you beat me to it
This Sargamis fellow sure likes to talk
edit I like the user interface and inventory management. Just the kind of RPG system I was expecting from Obsidian, several ways of dealing with encounters. It looks very traditional high fantasy style, not a dark fantasy style but maybe other areas are more like that. Looks awesome re fidelity and production values.

Fantasy written within the last 10 years has a super high chance of being complete garbage so I basically have no hype for any narrative game. But if the reviews are good I might download it on gamepass.

I'm hyped. Dual dagger no magic crit build is what I'll run. Too bad you cant block while dual wielding. I wanted to be able to parry.

Microsoft shouldn't need any marketing for a subscription service like Gamepass. Word of mouth is what it should rely on. Similar to Netflix, Hulu ect

Given Outer Worlds’ heavy handed “rich people and corporations = evil, asexual lesbians good” messaging and general mediocrity, the shit with their art director, and the general direction the gaming industry has gone since Outer Worlds…
My expectations are extremely low. But I will play it if I hear good things from people I trust.

Also some new more recent 4k footage clips from the pre-order trailers from other countries, chinese one in this case
^^ You can explore that whole city I believe, City of Paradis. It was locked for the previews.
Obsidian is sandbagging on this lol. Just watch reviews
