Obsidian previously made Fallout: New Vegas in 2010, which in the years since its release has come to be held up by many as the best Bethesda-era Fallout game.

To me, The Last Oricru basically embodies mediocrity.

Hardcore souls-borne fans that consume every game that comes their way might enjoy it’s distinct art direction and steady progression, but upon comparing it to any other similar game they will likely walk away feeling neutral about it at best. But given that it exists in a sea of other similar games where it so often fails to keep its head above the water let alone compete with the bigger successes of the genre, it’s a pretty tough sell. While the negatives and positives do end up mostly canceling each other out for me, I’m not going to sit here and say it’s a complete failure or does nothing well. For every thing I really liked, there were at least two or three adjacent blunders making my eyes roll into the back of my skull. The Last Oricru is not a game I would generally recommend.
