Take Gears of War, Destiny 2, and a whole lotta guns armor and the best customizable gear/weapons mechanics I have ever seen in a game and this is the end result. When it first launched it was buggy but now it’s pretty solid. I love this game. Story is great and the developers did a great job on this one. It’s also X/S optimized so it plays great on a Series X or S. Campaign is great but this game really shines after the campaign when you start to do the expeditions. The 15 levels of world tiers ramp up the difficulty challenge levels and the variety of guns and gear visually are fantastic. I could go on but go grab this. Take it for a spin on game pass. I bought it on several systems. People can fly is not owned by Microsoft so eventually this will leave game pass. I supported this developer by purchasing a digital copy for pc on Epic Games and bought physical ones for both PlayStation and Xbox. You can play with others on different consoles. But you your self have to start a new character on Xbox or PlayStation because your saved games won’t transfer like Destiny 2 does.

Very good and challenging game to anyone who likes looter shooters, although some things are a bit buggy and at times attacks or dodges won't register right it is still a solid game.

I got the game 4/1, couldn't get it to connect, then had to go out of town for a few days...so now it's 4/10 and I've played this a little. I keep getting caught up in thinking this is like other fps games, but at most you could say it is similar. There is definitely a unique experience here. I'm enjoying the story, but I will say that it is difficult to get by some of the bosses because there is nowhere an endless number of cannon fodder upon which to level. The game seems to try very hard to drive you to co-op play, which I don't like as much as just being an army of one. I guess I'll keep playing/trying though.

Good Looter Shooter But Needs Work

Outriders for me is a love hate thing. I love the interesting story, the shooting is fun and most of the powers for each class are pretty cool. I m using devestator and I like this class. The campaign is long enough plus the endgame. The weapons can be standard but the mods make them interesting at times. I play on series x so 60fps is great. The world of Enoch has different looking regions that don't get boring to look at. And the variant of monsters and other people you fight is enough that you don't get bored killing the same enemies over and over again.
Then we come to what I hate about this game. The cover system is annoying at best. I hate that you can mantle but there are times you can't mantle things that look like you could. The map is not good. Sometimes it's confusing to know where you are on the map and which direction to go or where you are facing. There are tons of invisible walls to block you. You can't jump in this game either. You get a dodge roll. Sometimes the cutscenes are weird and there's lots of fade to black screens which seems unnecessary. Jumping from one world tier to the next can up the difficulty alot forcing you to bring the tier back down. I found this annoying at times as I felt I won a couple of boss fights unfairly just by being down the tier level.
The one thing I'm not sure I like or hate is the unique thing odlf this game which is healing yourself for theost part requires you to be aggressive and kill enemies with your powers and guns. While this can be great when there tons of enemies it's not so great when's there's none and you're in a boss fights running for your life waiting for your health to slowly Regen hoping you don't get hit and die.
All in all though I'm having fun with this game and it's a good replacement for destiny.

The Outriders Day One Edition (Xbox Series X) delivers intense co-op looter-shooter action with satisfying powers and gear systems, yet its story, end-game variety and credited launch performance hold it back from greatness.

Outrides was a hidden gem of a game in my opinion.
Graphics are clean and crisp, gunplay is smooth and controls simple, and overall gameplay is a unique blend to make it entertaining to want to keep playing.
This is a good cross between The Division and Gears.

There were crashes & bugs in the beginning but they fixed them mostly. The gameplay & mechanics are VERY fun, but can be challenging if played solo & if not upgraded properly. I wish they would tweak the game for more easier solo at times, but I like the difficulty when you have enough power. I hope they add more content & I wish the game as made available as a permanent single-player game that doe not go offline when their servers go down!

Still don't know why studios don't add more controller feedback...smh. which generation will actually take full advantage of that? Player customization is limited; few options for Black, Asian, or Mexican Americans. The ones that exist are sadly stereotypical. The gameplay is Gears like but in no way nails it. The character models are ok, the NPCs are dumb..just dumb. The colors in hdr are AMAZING, lol but I don't think they're true hdr. I'm saying the explosions look cool. Let's be honest... we're starving for games.

Great game!!! I was burned on the last 2 games I bought Destiny and Anthem, Thought they were going to be great, but they were a waste. So i was nervous about this game Outriders, and it was so happy how great the game is. Very Challenging, and hard to kill bosses. Incredible loot drops, and just don't become to attached to your current weapons and armor, you might find better on next drop.

Combo of Destiny 2 and Gears 5...

I like this game quite a bit - has the customizing of Destiny 2, and the fighting reminds me of Gears 5. It gets really dark about 1 hour in, very strange, but then quite enjoyable after that. Maybe not for younger kids, but a fun game for adults.
