![]() ![]() One very mild story spoiler.Īnd yet despite all this, RGO has a resoundingly 'Mixed' rating from gamers on Steam. Cringe as Juno fails at Asteroids on an arcade cabinet.

It has the best licensed soundtrack of any game I have ever played, spread over seven different radio stations. You can flip twin birds to your enemies from inside your cockpit. It has space station bars where you can play full-fledged minigames of dice-poker, 8-ball, slots, and Asteroids. It has an embedded GIMP-like application for custom ship paintjobs. It has a simulated economy with random events and fluctuating prices. The writing and voice acting bounces between well-done and superb. It's well optimized and runs buttery smooth. The visual aesthetic is a delightful oversaturated kaleidoscope. You can fly trade routes, mine asteroids, take mercenary contracts, bounty hunt, smuggle contraband, and rob traders blind at gunpoint. Firefly is clearly a source of inspiration. We play as Juno, a cynical spacer down on her luck, on a meandering adventure through Dodge Sector: a collection of stellar systems replete with various unsavoury characters, most of whom speak in a distinctly Deep South accent. There are some reports on ProtonDB that you need to install mfc42 from Protontricks, with GE-Proton7-30 I did not need to. It's an open world space game with light simulation elements and an old-school Western feel that plays great on my aging Geforce 1070 via Proton at 4K with maxed settings. Rebel Galaxy Outlaw (RGO) is the sequel to the indie hit Rebel Galaxy and a spiritual successor to the Privateer franchise. You can sort your Steam library by rating to find games you have played with poor ratings. This article is about Rebel Galaxy Outlaw, its 'Mixed' steam rating, and the system of Steam reviews upon which many of us rely. If you can't think of one, sort your Steam library by Steam review and take a look near the bottom to see what you can find. If you came up with one, we share something. Think of a game that you love and believe most gamers should love, but which has an incomprehensibly poor rating on Steam. However, I have come to realize that my faith in Steam reviews may have come at a cost, and perhaps you will to. There are tireless Linux gamers dedicated to producing Steam reviews with Linux in mind (check out cbones, Houtworm, and the GamingOnLinux Steam group). We should be proud that our feedback can be especially helpful to developers. Think of the obligatory "Will this come to linux?" Steam discussion post. We also may be the most outspoken minority on Steam. Before the days of ProtonDB it was Steam reviews and discussion pages where we would find out how well the game ran on Linux (excepting, of course, this publication). Linux gamers on Steam have a particularly close relationship with the Steam community. Are Steam reviews making us miss out on good games? to me the whole thing ranks up there with pissing on the original mona lisa, but like i said i'm biased.Rebel Galaxy Outlaw is a fantastic open-world space game but Rebel Galaxy Outlaw has a terrible Steam reviews score. ![]() I thought it was really cool to see some of this old stuff.and at the same time makes me sad that EA destroyed a work of art. even what looks like a bunch of pre-rendered ports that were to be used for privateer 3, an unfinished game manual, pre-rendered images for press, etc. If you check out (yes its not the best of sites and has a lot of pointless drivel) scroll down a bit and you'll see some of the stuff they got. i mean everything! source code, videos, artwork, even some props from the FMV they had in games that were never sold off! i don't know how but a couple of old wing commander geeks somehow got access to all of Origin's old materials stored at EA Mythic studio. only time i felt very sad for a game and a company.Īnyhow fastforward 10 years give or take. however, i later found out that origin was secretly working on privateer 3 and it seemed they were just getting ready to go public with the project when they got the axe. ![]() That being said when EA decided to axe origin i was quite pissed. privateer 2 was the first game i really picked out for myself when i was still young - and to me it kicked all ass! i still love it to this day. Firstly i want to say that i have an extremely biased like for the old privateer/wing commander games. ![]()
