Gameinformer 'rapid fire' interview:
https://www.gameinformer.com/exclusive-video/2019/02/06/131-rapid-fire-questions-about-the-outer-worlds

The end of the video teases a month's worth of content being revealed on GameInformer's site, which suggests a late Q1 release. Why else have a marketing blitz now?

I hope you are right. We've seen marketing blitz done before, ages before game's release and it only resulted in people losing all interest by the time the game is out.

Since this is the defacto Outer Worlds thread around here, I've gone ahead and edited the thread title for clarity. :)

It's been said - Fallout meets Borderlands. If this is done well it could be one of the best games this decade (and beyond).

I just realized after that interview that the guys also worked on VtM: Bloodlines. Shall see how it turns out when new info comes out this month, but am looking forward to it.

It's got a hell of an act to follow to beat BL2, the shooting element will need to be superb, the original fallout was clunky and anything BUT an FPS. I'll keep an eye out though.

Well given the fact that the original Fallout was an isometric turn based combat RPG, yes.. it was anything BUT an FPS. When people say the makers of Fallout, they mean Fallout 1-2. Not 3 :D

Also not sure where this Borderlands thing comes from, this is not a looter shooter. It's a first person RPG with probably shooting mechanics. I wouldn't expect anything more, really.

I would argue that from what we have seen so far, the tone is more like Borderlands than for example later Fallouts. But Borderlands is not much of an RPG, that is true.

Yeah, tone wise it might be Borderlands, that I agree with. But not mechanics wise. Guess we just have to wait for more coverage.
