Outriders should be a Game of the Year contender, but it probably will not be because of launch day issues: server connectivity, graphics instability, inventory deleting and progress reset bugs, to name a few. But, the campaign is absolutely fantastic and quite memorable.

I had frustrating moments, especially when an event or boss had two stages and failure in the second stage resulted in a reset to stage one…I know it’s an old common game mechanic, but it is still annoying.

I liked the implementation of the side missions: even though they are sometimes directionally buggy or may not activate when you get to the right location. Going back to the game’s lobby and re-entering the campaign usually fixed the faulty GPS or in-game missing mission start button. The high reward giving Hunt missions were my favorite.

Shooting Enoch’s native fauna and other modified humanoid was very satisfying. The visual and sonic feedback of enemies being dispatched was quite enjoyable.

The Altered in Outriders is a modified human with powerful god-like abilities that would make even Zeus himself wish he had an Assault Rifle that can call down lightning.

Outriders is at times frustrating, but it is also an epic story containing funny and spectacular moments set in environments that truly amaze.
