Picking up the all essential backpack from the house as well as a weapon and water you can finally be on your way and able to explore the world! Once you have all the basic equipment needed to survive the guard will allow you to leave the village as the money needed isn’t really available within the village walls so leaving to secure the money is the only way. The minute you walk out of the door though you will be confronted with an angry mob demanding money that you owe as you did not pay while you were away, pay up or lose your home! After a small discussion it’s agreed to give you some time to pay up so you need to act fast and make the money to clear the debt, the game starts you on the back foot and this doesn’t change with some secret power you are just a normal person throughout the game! After being involved in a shipwreck you will be taken back to your hometown and the lighthouse in which your character calls home.
Outward allows you to name and make your own character with a few different options, once you have your character it is straight into the story with cutscenes shown with written out slides instead of video. In OutWard you start the story as a normal villager just like you or me, unlike most other RPG’s such as Skyrim for example where you have the secret power of the Dragonborn, in OutWard you are just a normal person with no special abilities to aid your adventure and this is a real change to the trend that is usually followed in RPG games. There is a new RPG finally out but is it any good? You would easily be forgiven if you hadn’t heard of OutWard, published by Deep Silver and developed by the small team at Nine Dots Studio many may have not even been aware of it but if you are a role playing game fan you probably will have or certainly should have!
