The developer People Can Fly did develop Gears of War Judgment so that vibe is definitely there. I see Outriders as a Gears of War/Division cover based third person shooter in a sci-fi setting ala Destiny. Shame it's four months away but very much looking forward to it.

The demo is out at noon EST today on all platforms. Will be about 22 GB.

My son loves it. I watched a little and it’s very action packed. Gonna play tomorrow morning (my normal gaming times are early morning before work). 4 different classes with melee, guns and special moves (earn up to 3 through playing).

It's if Destiny/Division had a kid, this would be it...not in a bad way but nothing really stood out to me, I do like some things about the game, but if there was ever a time when there was a "been there done that" vibe, this would be it...of course this is all my opinion.

Touches on a lot of my thoughts of the game so far as well.

Largely it's what I'd expect if Ubisoft or CDPR made a Gears of War game. Unlike Division, Assassin's Creed and Cyberpunk though I feel like there's not enough weight in your character's movements. The gameplay would benefit greatly if it was a little slower, too.

Haven't had the chance to play the demo yet but will do so this weekend. I'm already planning to buy the game so barring some unforeseen disaster in the demo, I don't see that changing.

Not a bad demo. But it is a hard pass. Any game that is or can be single player that is an always online/game as a service model is not something that I will invest time or money in. Shame really but that is just the way it is.

Almost everyone has internet. Why does it bother you to always be online? You are going to be online all the time anyways.
