I rate the PC game Outcast - Second Contact 4\/5. Good overall. Despite the misleading title, this is definitely a remake (or rather a graphical overhaul) of the original Outcast game, not a sequel. If you\u2019re looking for a sequel try to find information about Legacy of the Yods (which was advertised on Steam\u2019s Greenlight at one time) or look closely at Outcast\u2019s Wikipedia page for information. This version of Outcast plays almost exactly like the original and carries with it most of the original\u2019s strengths and weaknesses, though it features considerably improved graphics (with the notable exception of the dismally awful, cheap intro scene instead of the original\u2019s fairly excellent intro animation). If this is your first time playing Outcast you owe it to yourself to watch the original Outcast\u2019s intro on youtube or something so you can see how the story was supposed to be introduced and get a good feel for the game\u2019s intended feeling. Here\u2019s a link to the original intro: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=mVRYOaZtGCkWhile the above video may not look that great to us by today\u2019s standards, Second Contact\u2019s new intro is utter garbage by comparison. Otherwise, the graphical overhaul is generally outstanding. The adequate (even by today\u2019s standards) AI, the excellent music, the slightly muddy sound effects, mildly clunky controls, excellent voice acting, great dialogue, the good though somewhat old-school, slightly repetitious adventure gameplay and the generally wonderful plot (with the single exception of a badly handled, poorly developed romance between the main character and a side character (who wears fairly ridiculous clothing throughout the game)) all remain the same. Overall, with the notable exception of its intro scene, Outcast - Second Contact is the preeminent, best version of the game I know of.The general plusses and minuses are as follows (though in no particular order):+Generally wonderful graphical overhaul. This game is now beautiful and the better graphics make the game easier to play than it originally was as you can now more easily see and understand what you are doing and where you are going. Enough of the other game elements are already good enough to make this version of Outcast competitive with far more recently created third person perspective games. Characters are fairly well rendered and their costumes look correct. Character facial expressions are fairly rigid though. Character quality is more like Half Life 1 than Half Life 2 except for their fairly expressive and interesting eyes. Great use of lighting throughout.+Great dialogue and good voice acting. Well realized, interesting characters throughout.+Great story\/generally wonderful plot. Good and generally interesting side missions and it feels as though there are a lot of them. Good sense of urgency throughout.+Same excellent music as in the original Outcast which can make for good listening on its own.+Game ends on a good note with room for a sequel without being irritating (though there is really still no official sequel out). Game will make you really, really wish there was a sequel if you get really into it like I did. The characters are oddly hard to leave behind and may leave you with wistful memories of them. I really wanted to see what wound up happening to the world after the game ended.+Being evil has consequences. Weapon and ammo prices go up enormously, characters stop being helpful to the point that the plot cannot progress. If you kill a plot-critical character, their immortal, avenging ghost will chase you down forever until it kills you.+\/-Already excellent game save system is made better by the frequency with which the game auto-saves. Game save file menu is a little confusing though.+\/-Gameplay has a very old-school style. It is hard to explain but it features a lot of back-tracking, re-using previously visited environments and sub-quests where you must essentially locate items and bring them back to the character who originally gave you the quest. Some missions have unclear instructions\/objectives. Many characters look too much like other characters despite their extremely unique personalities (too few clothing styles\/options on characters though the ones which are present are well rendered). +\/-Hub-based level\/world\/area design. Areas are connected via portals and certain areas are connected only to certain other areas much like rooms in a house. This requires traveling back and forth through some areas. Certain areas (like Okasankar) become almost like hallways from which several rooms branch off. This non-linear structure means you can complete different areas and quests in any order as the areas act like geographic places and do not need to be unlocked (portals merely need to be geographically located after the first introductory area). However this increases the amount of running back and forth around places you\u2019ve previously seen as you travel, particularly if you complete side missions in an inefficient manner (think of how often you might see a certain main hallway in a building as you go between the various rooms which branch off of it). There is no fast-travel to simply warp you straight to an area. +\/-Controls are generally responsive yet jumping mechanics are extremely clumsy and have a difficult learning curve. Luckily, jumping is usually not necessary (except during certain, usually quite easy jumping puzzles). No ability to duck\/lean. Auto-aim function in the menu is counter-intuitive and is best turned off. Aiming controls are a bit clunky as an aiming button must be held before firing can commence using a different button. Keys can easily be remapped though the default scheme seemed generally excellent to me.+\/-Fairly easy to win, this game is clearly intended for young adults with relatively little gaming experience. No difficulties per se but the amount of damage you sustain can be adjusted in a menu.+\/-Fairly fast loading screens though loading screens are oddly uninteresting and totally uninformative. Game starts quickly and can be quickly quit out of (though the way it resizes its screen as it closes is very disconcerting as it always looks as though it is freezing up when it is closing.-No ability to alter the course of the plot results in severely limited replay value. Only reason to replay this game ultimately is to hear all the good dialogue again and see all the nifty characters. No true alternate ending. Somehow completing 90% of the side quests and main quests will show a little dance party scene as a hidden easter-egg at the very end however but this isn\u2019t a real alternate ending.-Somewhat muddy sound effects throughout. Explosions are particularly muddy sounding.-Several missions have unclear instructions and may require help from online sources to determine how to solve a puzzle or complete certain missions. Some missions don\u2019t give enough guidance to point you in the right direction or give enough encouragement that you are thinking correctly. This is also a potential aspect of \u201cold-school\u201d gaming.-Game has several minor bugs throughout. After completing the main mission you might still not get the steam achievement which says you did complete the main mission because not all main missions need to be completed and one of them is actually absent\/left over from the game\u2019s original development but not usually accessible. Some secondary missions cannot be completed for similar reasons. Thus it is almost impossible to get all steam achievements due to bugs.-No official modding support. No DLC content. No real sequel thus far. Only a soundtrack (which is quite good).For more general information about all versions of Outcast I\u2019d recommend this website (though this website has significant spoilers throughout):https:\/\/tvtropes.org\/pmwiki\/pmwiki.php\/VideoGame\/Outcast. 6\/10This was clearly a great game. Well ahead of it's time. It is fun for a while, but gets very samey and repetitive after not too long, and I don't really think it stands up to comparison with modern titles in terms of gameplay. Nice bit of nostalgia though. Do you remember the disastrous voxels?. Outcast - Second Contact is a remastered version of a 1999 masterpiece game.20 years is an epoch in game development timeline. Nowdays game looks dated on many levels: * Certain lack of gameplay depth* Somewhat simplistic story and not a lot of side-content* Very basic character development* Glitchy unnatural animations* Lacunas in voice actingThe masterpiece is still there, though. Game has things to make up for its weaknesses. Well, two mainly:* Strength of its worlds genesis and characters: you just believe in it. Between visuals (all new and shiny, making it look decent in 2019) and fragmentary story inserts game is very immersive, despite not offering a lot on any other front.* Orchestral music score. Still as touching and profound as it ever was.Enjoyed every moment of my twenty years later re-walkthrough. Worth it, even If you know nothing about original game.. So I just finished the game and I got mixed feelings.I never finished the original I only played it at a friends place when was a child and back then I was fascinated. I really enjoyed the remake because it send me back to that feeling of wonder and I kind of like the goofy characters.And for a old game like that, the world really feels alive and has the right amount of side quests. BUT... the controls are kind of wobbly and feel like they havn't been improved from the 90s version.Also it had a loooooot of buggs. They weren't too anyoing but it kind of takes you out of the experience if after a cutscene enemies don't spawn or if during a conversation NPCs spawn continiously behind your conversation partner.Still I would recommend to buy it and give it a go!
