Outward, the open-world RPG that forces you to live with your failures, is finally getting a sequel
Released in 2019, Outward is «a gem of an RPG,» we said in our 89% review. It's also an unusual one: It's impossible to die in the game, but there's also no fast-travel and it's impossible to save-scum your way past trouble thanks to its mandatory auto-save system. It forces players to live with their failures and the consequences, which can be frustrating but also fodder for truly epic tales. «I love this game,» Chris Livingston wrote about his time with Outward. «I also, sometimes, hate this game.»
