Outcast PC game - Intro credits

Credits and kind of a short intro, after all the jabbing:p (not shown). Also showing the first world Cutter Slade wakes up in, the winter world Ranzaar.


A bit of info on this fantastic game:

Outcast is an action-adventure computer game by Belgian developer Appeal, released in 1999.

Instead of an hardware-accelerated graphics engine, Outcast used a purely software-based combination of voxel and polygons. Makes for much more interesting terrain, at least at the time. I think (pretty sure, well, damned sure actually) they also used voxels for many buildings, walls, trees and stuff. An ingenious use of voxels!

The music has to be mentioned too:
Outcast features a high-quality orchestral score performed by the Moscow Symphony Orchestra and choir. Fitting beautifully with the gameplay, like in a great movie!

The story and execution is simply brilliant! Too bad Outcast 2 was cancelled.. this game was unfortunately never a hit, and the company went backrupt while developing the sequel.

@texmetchemical

Probably better if you check out gog dot com. Lots of classics, including Outcast. They claim it should work on modern systems. I just found out about them.

Soo underrated! One of the best games released in the 90s. I wish it had been a bigger success, I was sad when I heard that tey had cancelled the production of Outcast 2 :(

[DrWhooooooooo]

Me too! Well, I didn't play this until late 2007 (and still I was impressed, that says something 8 years after its release?), but yeah, I found out the sequel was cancelled..

(Sorry late answer...)

Oucast, Gothic, Alone in the dark, Kyrandia... so many games that leaved deep marks in the gaming history.
