Outward is a Western RPG with a Wide-Open Sandbox world, developed by the Canadian Nine Dots Studios, and released on March 26th, 2019 for PC, PS4 and Xbox One.It is set in a Low Fantasy realm of Aurai, a setting that can be described as a cross between Dark Souls and Kingdom Come: Deliverance, with its combat system and world-building being largely inspired by the former, and possessing the same sort of Survival Sandbox elements as the latter. It can also be played alone, or in co-op.The player begins as a shipwrecked castaway, who is rescued from Chernonese coast, but must now repay a blood debt to the Cierzo city within five days, or be kicked out. They may succeed or fail; either way, they will have managed to attract the interest of the world's three dominant factions, the Blue Chamber Collective, the Holy Mission of Elatt or the Heroic Kingdom of Levant, who are all hoping the player will join them and finally turn the ongoing stalemate into their favour.An Updated Re-release, Outward: Definitive Edition, was released in May 2022. | |

Villainous Lineage | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_1246c26c | comment |
Villainous Lineage: Your character's bloodline debt is accused of being the result of this, with causing harm to your settlement being something inherited In the Blood. The reality is not so simple: When the war with the corruption began, your ancestor, the village leader at the time, turned away priests of Eliat and sided with the Cabal of Winds. This was at a time when the Holy Mission's power was waxing and the Cabal's power was waning, so the Cabal of Winds couldn't protect your home town, while the Holy Mission could have. As a result, many died, and a bloodline debt was levied against your line. That's all it was. No great crime, no vicious or malicious misdeeds, just a bad choice that led to people dying that would only ever have been clear with hindsight, choosing to side with the Cabal that had been the traditional protectors of the realm instead of siding with the new and untested Holy Mission. That's all it takes to ruin a family line for generations in this world. | |

Warp Whistle | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_159850a5 | comment |
Warp Whistle: A downplayed version is found in the Soroboreans DLC. The traveling Soroborean merchant will take you along with him to his destination, but you have to pay him and have enough travel rations on hand to make the journey, and you have to go wherever he is going. The same amount of in-game time elapses, but the player is saved from having to make the trek. This method is the only way to get to the Ancient Plateau, the world region introduced in the DLC. | |

Playing with Fire | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_1cc9f5e5 | comment |
Playing with Fire: The player can develop fire magic, although the traditional stuff like fireballs requires one to draw a Sigil of Fire and stand within it first. However, you can learn to cast a flamethrower burst from within any lantern you hold, though that'll obviously end up degrading the lantern. Otherwise, you also have the ability to warm yourself if you spent too long in a cold area, and the same spells infusing weapons and shields with fire damage/protection as ones possessed by the other elements. (And like with the other elements, you can either perform an Elemental Discharge from the infused weapon, or strike it into the infused shield for a powerful explosion.) The Fire Beetles can cast two varieties of a fireball. Alpha Tuanosaurs can generate a flame explosion, and the Elite Alpha Tuanosaur boss can cast homing fireballs as well. All of the enemies affiliated with the Scarlet Lady Lich possess flame powers. Thus, Ghosts of her followers inflict burning with their attacks, while Burning Men not only do that, but can also generate a flame blast or a flamethrower-like stream. The stag-like Obsidian Elementals will simply cast a whole volley of fireballs, which also home in on the player for their elite versions. | |

Heavily Armored Mook | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_1d364dbd | comment |
Heavily Armored Mook: The Armored Troglodydes, which are said to be the few Troglodytes who lived past their first birthday and learned about the merits of armor. Instead of forging it, though, they simply roll around in metal scraps until they stick to their soft and bulbous hide. This approach works well enough to boost their HP to 225 - 2,5 times larger than a common Troglodyte, and 1,5 times greater than the elite skeletons or bandits. They have an Elite variety too, which outright has an HP of 350. Bandit Defenders overlap with Shield-Bearing Mook, as they wear full plate armor and also carry tower shields. Moreover, some Bandits will both tame Hyenas, and give them armor on their back. | |

Crapsack World | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_21d70919 | comment |
Crapsack World: Best exemplified by the intro: your friend's ship crashes because the lighthouse wasn't lit, killing everyone but you two and losing all the treasure you obtained while away. He's struck for this accident with a blood debt, and you still need to pay your long-dead ancestor's, with the only reason your house isn't immediately taken away being because the town chief is reasonable. You can comment how unfair this is, at which point you'll be told that it's in place because it works, but you're free to venture out. Sounds like typical scaremongering, right? Well, when you do venture out, you'll find the world is bleak. Aside from bandits, there's no human civilization that hasn't been long destroyed in the starting area, and the world is mostly empty. For all the issues the blood debt has, it works. There are further explanations that state that the reason it's a bloodline debt instead of one to the individual is to prevent the debtor from committing suicide to spare their family the debt, or their family from killing the debtor to escape from having to pay it. Of course, you're always free to leave and take your chances in the outside world. No one is going to try and force you to come back... since they know you'll probably die well before you reach the closest settlement. Just to drive home how awful this world is, one of the few places that offers freedom from the blood debt system is The Heroic Kingdom of Levant, a city-state built upon this world's equivalent of the Nile floodplain. Levant is separated from other regions by a monster infested Thirsty Desert, and impoverished debtors are unlikely to be able to afford any means of crossing said desert other than walking there with whatever they can carry. And yet, there are STILL enough disenfranchised people managing to reach Levant that the city is undergoing an Overpopulation Crisis. | |

What's Up, King Dude?: In Levant, you can walk right into the royal throne room and talk to the king and queen; the king will even teach you an attack in exchange for some money. By contrast, the leaders of the other factions won't talk to you until you join them. | |

The City Narrows | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_30ef2781 | comment |
The City Narrows: Levant has the Slums, a ramshackle patch of crude buildings which are also spattered with blood and littered with bodies, the living inhabitants either begging to get by or preparing for illegal activities. Levant is notably the only city in the game that has such a disparity in its citizens, and is also the only one that eschews the Blue Chamber's laws of enforced equality. Then again, said laws include exiling those who can't pay their debts to monster infested wilderness, which is basically a death sentence. It's that kind of setting. | |

Squishy Wizard | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_38047858 | comment |
Squishy Wizard: Played straight for the players, as getting any mana in the first place requires them to permanently sacrifice HP and stamina, so a spellcasting character is always squishier than a pure warrior character of the same level. When it comes to the enemies, however, the mages are generally substantially tougher than most enemies: Ice Witches have 200 HP, which is more than double of basic Bandits' 90, and is even greater than the 150 of Bandit Captains and Defenders. Same goes for the Mana Troglodytes. Ash Giant Priests have 100 more HP than the normal Ash Giants, giving them HP of 800 that exceeds any other non-boss enemy. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: Characters who follow the Rune Sage skill tree gain the ability to shoot a lightning bolt that does decent damage and has no special conditions to use, other than first summoning a lantern that stays around for a very long time. The only catch is that you stand still for a couple seconds while casting, which can be overcome as long as you can move fast enough to keep a lead on the enemy. As such, high-end play among Sage characters often consists of running in a circle around the enemy while spamming the same two buttons over and over. | |

Shock and Awe | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_4c798fd5 | comment |
Shock and Awe: Ash Giant Priests can summon Lightning orbs. Mantis Shrimps can do a similar attack. The Light Mender is an ancient, immortal Lich with Lightning powers. His time spent studying electricity allowed him to create a whole army of constructs that also use lightning - from Golden Minions that fight with polearms and simply generate a lightning explosion up close, to Golden Sceptres that are often equipped with outright Lightning Cannons. The player can temporarily add shock status to a normal weapon with Infuse Light spell or with Bolt Rag and Bolt Varnish items, while the weapons from the Gold-Lich set are all permanently imbued with Lightning. This is especially important when facing Troglodytes and the Scourge, who are all vulnerable to lightning. They can also specialise in Lightning spells, but as with all other elements, nearly all of them are of buff-oriented and defensive nature, with the straight-up attacks like Lightning Spark and Lightning Bullet requiring the Sigil of Wind to be cast first. Otherwise, you can only perform an Elemental Discharge from your currently held lightning-infused weapon or infuse the shield as well and go for a "Gong Clash" (striking a buffed weapon into a buffed shield to generate a powerful explosion) - the moves which have direct equivalents for all other elements. | |

Head to the beach near Cierzo at night and you'll be able to collect deposits of blue sand, a crafting material which sells for a good bit (12 silver a piece, compared to the 6-8 silver you'll be getting from selling bandit weapons) and can be used to craft a set of armor that provides the best general defense in the game. You don't even need to fight anything to get it, the only enemies around are shrimp which, while powerful, are easy to avoid. Make your way to the Vendavel Fortress and you'll find a scary looking knight guy equipped with a tower shield and a brutal mace. He may look dangerous but if your dodging skills are good enough (or you climb up on a nearby rock and pelt him with arrows) he can be beaten to acquire a tower shield and brutal club, allowing you to effectively block most attacks for awhile and giving you a weapon stronger than most of what you'll find in the area. The Tuanosaur Axe and Greataxe can both be obtained without exploring any dungeons or fighting any bosses and are only outclassed in their type by endgame weapons. To get either all you need is the brutal version of their weapon type (You can buy a brutal axe in the starting town rarely, and you can get a brutal greataxe off of bandits), and some palladium and alpha tuanosaur tails (Both of which can be obtained in the Hallowed Marsh region). The Thrice-Wrought Halberd does substantial damage, half of which is ice and half fire, meaning that almost nothing in the game can meaningfully resist it. It can be found in the Cabal of Wind temple, which can be cleared without fighting any monsters because there's a resetable trap in the central room. If you can manage to lure the monstrosities inside, you can kill them off with ease, netting both the Halberd and a bunch of valuable monster parts. | |

Save Scumming: Averted, as Outward doesn't provide manual saves and constantly auto-saves everything the player does instead. PC players can recover old saves; this is meant as a protection against bugs, but it can be exploited. | |

Our Ghosts Are Different | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_66479d0 | comment |
Our Ghosts Are Different: The ghosts in Outward obviously do not bleed or suffer from poison, and are mostly, but not entirely resistant to all physical attacks - 20% of the damage will still get through, while the Green Ghosts in the Corrupted Tombs only possess 40% Physical Resistance. Still, it is very much preferable to obtain a source of Ethereal damage instead, which deals doubled damage to them (even though that's also the damage they are using). Besides the weaker Green Ghosts and the "default" purple ones, there are also Ghosts of the Scarlet Lady, which have the least HP but inflict burning with their attacks, and the elite Red Ghosts, which possess 270 HP and can heal themselves with a Shockwave Stomp explosion that also damages the player and renders them vulnerable to further Ethereal damage. Ghosts need to consume either human vital energy or pure corruption in order to keep their memories and identity together, though apparently the former is much more enjoyable for the ghost. Ghosts are most often created by people who cannot move on, or who were killed by the scourge. | |

An Ice Person | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_67b0bd0e | comment |
An Ice Person: It is possible to specialise in ice spells, though like with all elemental magic, most are less-glamorous things like weapon buffs, magical shields, or even a Cool spell that simply counters getting overheated in hot regions. Wendigos are monsters focused on ice magic. Bandits can at times be accompanied by Ice Witches, who cast Ice Bolts and Ice Explosions. Balora, one of the Vendavil warlords, is a much more powerful ice witch. | |

Elemental Rivalry | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_6d88c70f | comment |
Elemental Rivalry: Most of the magical elements are paired, such that creatures with an affinity to one element tend to be vulnerable to its opposite. The main pairs are fire and ice, and decay and lightning. Ether is a mostly neutral element, with most ethereal creatures both dealing ethereal damage and being vulnerable to it, but it is sometimes paired with lightning as well. There are a few pieces of gear in the game that have affinity with both elements in an opposing pair, giving their user a particular advantage against mixed company. | |

Door to Before | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_72c04e0d | comment |
Door to Before: Many dungeons end with a treasure chamber that contains a door or other blockade that can be opened, allowing the player to quickly return to the overworld. This is especially useful because treasure chests restock periodically, and some dungeons act as shortcuts between overworld locations that would otherwise be difficult to traverse, so there's actually a reason to keep using these doors once they're opened. | |

Mana Meter | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_7a7b093d | comment |
Mana Meter: A particularly cruel variety. The Low Fantasy setting means that the players do not start with mana by default like they would in most RPGs. Instead, it can only be gained at the Ley Line in the Conflux Chambers, and getting 20 points of mana forces the player to sacrifice 5 points of HP and stamina. | |

Our Liches Are Different | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_82a4fadc | comment |
Our Liches Are Different: According to Word of God, they're individuals who have bound their life force to a phylactery in order to achieve immortality. Not exactly undead, they're not necessarily evil either, though of the five liches that can be encountered in the game, three are innately hostile. Their immortality isn't perfect, either: one, the creator of the Walled Garden in Abrassar, was killed in the initial attack by the Scourge and their body can be found there. Each is associated with an element, and are treated like lesser deities in the setting. | |

Exposed to the Elements | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_9b53f32 | comment |
Exposed to the Elements: This is not something a player wants to do, as exposure to the cold is a thing, and so staying warm is a concern. Literally the only advantage of basic torches over lanterns, for instance, is that they generate heat along with light, and so can be more helpful in the cold areas: there's even a counterpart with Ice-Flame Torch, which will cool the player while providing light. However, these items are hardly something you want to rely on. | |

King Mook: Frequent: The boss battle at the Burning Tree of an Emmerkar Forest overlaps with Wolf Pack Boss, as you confront an Elite Burning Man and two Elite Obsidian Elementals. Notably, the Burning Man is buffed much more than the Elementals — the latter go from 400 HP for the basic version to 900, while he gets 10X values with 2500 HP over the basic variety's 250. It also gets a second phase at 75% HP, with attacks that are unique to it. The principle also applies to the bosses who aren't simply named Elite "Enemy X". Ash Giant Highmonk is the advanced priests, Scourge Butchers of Men are advanced Immaculates, Balora is an upgraded Ice Witch, etc. | |

Timed Mission | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_bb48f8ba | comment |
Timed Mission: The very first mission of paying off the 150 silver blood debt (or obtaining a Writ of Tribal Favour instead) can be failed if not done within five days. Afterwards, each of the three factions also has at least one quest with a time limit; failing them will not stop the player from completing the game, but will still have consequences, ranging from some NPCs dying of starvation to getting locked out of a secondary location or receiving a permanent stamina debuff. Once the player joins one of the three main factions, each faction gains a "Parallel Quest" that can be pursued by any player regardless of their faction choice. Failing to complete these quests in time leads to various penalties. For example, if the Blue Chamber's Parallel Quest is failed, Cierzo, the first city in the game, will be permanently destroyed, and be a host to a bunch of tough enemies instead. And if the Holy Mission's Parallel Quest is failed, the culprits behind a string of murders will permanently escape, draining Monsoon's manpower while also cutting off access to a major settlement. | |

Golem | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_c3182167 | comment |
Golem: Some of the Construct enemies are called Beast Golems, Forge Golems and Sword Golems. However, they are all very untraditional examples: Sword Golems are spindly, finely forged automatons at odds with the traditional image of a bulky golem, but they at least have a humanoid shape. Beast Golems are essentially mechanical hounds that bite opponents with metal beaks, while Forge Golems are like a miniature version of a Chicken Walker; they may be only half as a tall as a human, but their Molten variety compensates for that with in-built dual Flame Cannons. | |

Continuing is Painful: The player character cannot die permanently in-universe, but they also lose practically everything at death, as well as waking up with persistent wounds. Thus, it actually takes longer to regain your progress than it would be in a more conventional game where the player was knocked back to a checkpoint. | |

Dem Bones | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_c3f6e68 | comment |
Dem Bones: The player will encounter Animated Skeletons at Corrupted Tombs and Ziggurat Passage. The former mainly fight with picks, and only possess the same durability (90 HP) as a common Bandit. The latter wield axes or claymores, and are substantially tougher, with their 150 HP equivalent to Bandit Captains or Defenders. Being undead, both varieties are immune to bleeding and poison; however, their skeletal frame also makes them easier to stagger than the living humans. | |

Hollywood Darkness | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_ca81eae7 | comment |
Hollywood Darkness: Averted. It is truly dark at night, or in many underground areas, and the player is essentially forced to carry torches or lanterns with them. Wearing a backpack onto which you can hang a lantern (or even craft a Glowstone or even Light Mender's Backpack that'll act as light sources of their own), and thus free up a hand for a shield or a two-handed weapon is one of the more important Boring, but Practical tweaks you can make for these times. | |

Optional Boss | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_e0606d52 | comment |
Optional Boss: The Unknown Arenas are a series of hidden areas, three for each overworld region, that only become available after a player completes a main faction quest line. Each contains a boss fight against an enemy or small group that is substantially tougher than anything the player will encounter during a quest. Most of these are enhanced versions of regular enemies, as designated by the title "Elite". | |

Set a Mook to Kill a Mook | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_e1645c04 | comment |
Set a Mook to Kill a Mook: Most enemy types are hostile to each other; thus, an effective strategy, especially in the Hollowed Marsh and several dungeons, is to lead one mob so that it clashes with another mob, wait for them to duke it out, and mop up the survivors. | |

Our Gods Are Different | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_e1ecdac3 | comment |
Our Gods Are Different: A human can become a god, or a "being of living thought", if they survive being hit by a massive amount of magical power. Elatt was the first person to undergo this, and at the end of the Holy Mission quest line, he elevates Queen Calixa of Levant to the same status. | |

Wolfpack Boss: The Burning Tree boss battle consists of an Elite Burning Man and two Elite Obsidian Elementals. One boss battle at the Giants' Village has you confront three Elite Ash Giants. The battle with the Troglodyte Queen also involves six of her Elite guards, whom she'll regularly heal (and two are healers themselves.) | |

The boss battle at the Burning Tree of an Emmerkar Forest overlaps with Wolf Pack Boss, as you confront an Elite Burning Man and two Elite Obsidian Elementals. Notably, the Burning Man is buffed much more than the Elementals — the latter go from 400 HP for the basic version to 900, while he gets 10X values with 2500 HP over the basic variety's 250. It also gets a second phase at 75% HP, with attacks that are unique to it. | |

Swamps Are Evil | |
| Outward (Video Game) / int_eabb8130 | comment |
Swamps Are Evil: The Hallowed Marsh area is a complicated example: as the site of the Holy Mission, it houses those who are most responsible for fighting the Scourge, and they seem to have a respect for the marsh itself. However, the area is also steeped in corruption, with poisonous waters and unusually dangerous fauna. The Marsh varieties of the bandits found there are some of the toughest, having more HP than all the rest and being resistant to Decay rather than weak to it, and with minor resistances to the other elements. | |

Points of Light Setting: Cities are relatively isolated, and outside of the larger metropolitan settlements there are essentially no villages besides a tiny handful made up of warrior clans as the wilderness is simply that hostile.
