This is a big one for me. The current cars are amazing to see in action like Group B. But seeing cars that are closely related to their road going counterparts was more interesting to me with the Group A and early WRC spec cars.

Has Iggy Pop had many other acting credits? He really was impressively good in that episode

Also have that silly simple theme song in my head now

Man that must’ve been a real ripper

What’s always funny to me is how so many people think UBI would keep people from working. Like, why wouldn’t you take advantage of being able to work and have money, and have that bonus of the UBI

Much as I like the little Suzuki, I think I’d probably be happiest all around with the Isuzu.

It’s like rage bait works or something. I know I’m sometimes weak at resisting an anger share, but I think I’m pretty far ahead of a LOT of people on here

I still definitely enjoyed the game. The companions are still great, the main quest was, again, much more interesting and more tangible than the first game’s, and it plays quite well. Maybe we’ll get lucky and it’ll have some amazing DLC like the first game.

The warzone setting of Outer Worlds 2 probably makes it harder to have interactions and side quests regarding just normal, somewhat inconsequential, but fun and interesting people. But maybe that’s something to learn for a future installment.

I wish more of the worlds and side quests were like the first game’s DLC, which had much more in-depth quest lines that revealed many more little stories and tidbits about the world.

And more interactions with just normal people and situations would be good.

I think the fact that these games are operating in a world fairly divorced from our own and far ahead from our history, there’s a lot more work to do laying groundwork for the world, since there’s not much connection to what we know. So no easy shortcuts to develop stories

The factions are a little overly cartoonish and simple. Their interactions can be interesting, especially when strategizing and negotiating between them, but they seem a little like caricatures. Maybe because there are two factions that either hadn’t existed or wasn’t big enough before

The older hatches are popular for Eclipse GST and GSX swaps

I’m a little surprised more people haven’t created Evo coupes using those Mirages
