Great, funny RPG that was ignored because it launched near the disruptive Disco Elysium.

Also triggers ancaps, even though you can join the company's side.

It was not ignored because of Disco Elysium. In fact I had never even heard of DE myself until like last year.

The reason it was "ignored" (it really wasn't though) is that it was a pretty mid game.

ETA: it was also hyped up to be the "Bethesda Killer." IGN was literally posting articles and videos saying things like "Bethesda should probably start looking for a new job."

Ironically I heard more good things about Outer Worlds than from Starfield.
