The Outer Worlds
The Outer Worlds (a.k.a. Fallout: Space Vegas, TOW, Space Dyke Simulator 2019 and Fallout 4) is a 2019 vidya game by Obshitian Entertainment that serves as the sequel to the company's 2010 hit, Fallout: New Vegas. Much like its predecessor, The Outer Worlds is a western-themed FPSRPGOMGWTFBBQ game that is filled to the brim with dykes and other assorted homosexual degenerates since Obsidian's staff are a bunch of virulent Social Justice Warriors.
Unlike Fallout: New Vegas, which was built on Bethesda's shitty Frankensteined Gamebryo engine, The Outer Worlds is instead built on Epic Games' Unreal Engine – the most overused piece of shit in the gaming industry. Despite being built on a superior engine almost a full decade after its predecessor, The Outer Worlds somehow still manages to have characters with faces so fugly that they look like they were ripped straight out of a 2006 Bethesda game.
Because 2019 was an absolute shit year for gaming, reviewers will ultimately be forced to decide whether The Outer Worlds deserves to win Game of the Year over the downgraded Nintendo Switch re-release of 2015's The Bitcher 3: Wild Cunt.

Characters
The Stranger is you. You get to choose which homosexuals get purged from this world. Phineas Vernon Wells is literally Rick from Rick and Morty. He wakes you up from Cryo-Sleep and you can promptly thank him by shooting him in the face. Alex Hawthorne is a mercenary that you accidentally crush to death with your escape pod. You then steal his identity and his space ship. ADA is a lesbian AI who resides in Hawthorne's space ship. Ellie is a lesbian space pirate. Parvati Holcomb is a lesbian who shits in the streets. Nyoka is a pink-haired lesbian nigger. Clive Lumbergh is an entrepreneur who breeds Cystipigs, a form of cancer-ridden swine that taste like bacon, and sells them to hungry consumers. One of the few morally good characters in the game. Also he looks like a typical Fallout 3 raider and talks like he just suffered half-a-dozen strokes. Catherine Malin is an evil dyke who wants you to murder Clive. Shoot her in the face immediately. Moon Man is the mascot for Spacer's Choice and an avowed white supremacist. Basically a racist version of Vault Boy.
