![]() ![]() This has happened since day one, and it’s a bit disappointing to see it still being an issue now, a year later. First off is the difficulty playing with friends, and random crashes to the dashboard. ![]() ![]() So now for the traditional paragraph where I have to complain about the game I’m reviewing, but thankfully with Outriders Worldslayer the list isn’t massive however it is significant. Add to this a slew of new achievements and there is quite a bit to aim at in Worldslayer. Again, keep earning points to make yourself stronger and you’ll be sorted. Earning points in either of these trees allows you to spend the points on new perks, like increased armour or health, right up to gaining some new abilities. One good thing about the Trials is that doing them on Apocalypse Tier 25 (there’s an achievement for doing this, I’m not crazy) will no doubt bring you a couple of Legendary tier items at least, so it is well worthwhile.Īnother new twist is the addition of two additional skill trees: the Pax tree and the Ascension level tree. Also, in order to level up Apocalypse gear, you have to break down other Apocalypse gear, so you’ll soon learn not to hoard things any more. Instead of the standard two perks, this comes with three, and so can make you much stronger. New weapons and armour are abound, as you’d expect, and there is a new tier of loot as well – Apocalypse loot. In addition to these new difficulties (that go all the way up to level 40), there are other new things as well. So yeah, Worldslayer is certainly harder than the base game before it, but it is still very much playable solo should you wish. I had to join a friend and basically hide behind him while he killed everything in sight, to get gear that would allow me to compete. Seriously, in the early stages, Outriders Worldslayer is brutal. I was playing on World Tier 13, and so the game set itself to Apocalypse Tier 13 as well, which went swimmingly right up until I met an enemy, who proceeded to stomp me in no uncertain fashion, again and again. Remember the old World Tier system in the base game where you made the game as hard or as easy as you wanted, and the loot scaled to whatever tier you were currently on, pushing you to play on the hardest level you could manage? Apocalypse Tiers are basically World Tiers on steroids, and even the lower levels will be a stiff challenge if you are just stepping out of the base game. ![]() These Trials and to a similar extent, the campaign, all feed into another of the new mechanics, the Apocalypse Tiers. All is peachy in the presentation department of Outriders Worldslayer. The sounds are also as good as ever: gunshots and roars, whooshes of powers and swearing from my fireteam as they get caught in a corner. Outriders was never a bad looker, and here, with new flavours of enemies (like the bloody ice dragonfly type things that are a massive pain) and huge new foes to face off against, who all seem to have varieties of ice powers to punish you with, the challenge is real. So, how does Outriders Worldslayer look? Well, just as good as the base game, so there are no issues there. So, to do list: stop Ereshkigal, save the world, and keep our friends safe. However, Zahedi finds a spot the storm doesn’t seem to touch, and so we go off to see what’s happening.Īlong the way we meet the baddie of the piece, another Altered by the name of Ereshkigal, a woman who seems to have the power of shadow tentacles or something, and kicks our Altered ass roundly. As we are exploring a new frozen location, we come across an old pod, and with it the news that the storms that have always rocked Enoch are going to get worse as the anomaly strengthens. Right then, first off, what is the point of Worldslayer? What is our character’s motivation? How does the end of the world sound? Pretty motivating, I think you’ll agree. ![]()
