The Outer Worlds is Obsidian at its prime, there's little doubting that. Personally I enjoyed it a little more than Alessio, though he certainly enjoyed it enough to rate it 7.8/10 in his review. I am a big fan of Obsidian and their style of game. Fallout: New Vegas is and remains the best Fallout, despite the pressure and short timescale given for the development. The Outer Worlds winning the game of the year award at the New York Videogame Awards.

　　Other awarded titles include Disco Elysium, The Outer Wilds, Control and even more. The list is fairly extensive, with a lot of references to New York landmarks (I wonder why?), but all in all the list seems a pretty damn good list at highlighting some of the best that came out in 2019.

　　The full list can be seen below:

The Outer Worlds, The Outer Wilds, Resident Evil 2 and so many more are well worthy of the awards given to them and are all titles I would recommend checking out.
