The "yeti" creatures could be immature Wendigos, they're growing little deer horns and their human skeletons are already elongating, similar to how the infected bug men eventually become hive lords
That's DEFINITELY the case. I'm kinda surprised that Sheen didn't realize those long neck blue guys were just Wendigos in the process, not some other species.
Very nice to see people appreciate our works like you and the main raison why I work to produce as high quality stuff as I can so player like you to enjoy as much as possible. Love your content too :)
Animations are looking a lot more organic. There’s serious weight put behind the shield charge as it looks like they go for a slight superman jump putting their back foot down.
Things I would like to see in Outward 2: 1. More ranged weapons, more specifically, Rifles, Crossbows, and Hand-Crossbows. Guns deal the most damage, crossbows have the best special ammo, and bows have the best speed. 2. Self-Training. Basically, you spend enough stamina, and you'll get a small boost to it. Eat too much food and you become fat, so you have more health and less stamina, eat too little and the effect is reversed. Maybe also special skills you can learn yourself if you accomplish certain things? 3. Better Crafting. Expand upon the basic crafting system to also include blacksmithing, maybe also make it so you're an active participant in the crafting? (Like the Jacksmith game) 4. MINIONS!!! At inns in various cities, you can hire mercenaries to help you fight and explore. If you don't want to spend money, you can summon a familiar/demon/spirit/etc using a new type of magic called summoning/demonology/spirit calling. This would make support builds viable solo and give an excuse to add more team-centric abilities. 5. Base-Building. At the very most, allows you to build your own home in certain places onthe map. At the very least, allows you to upgrade and customize the houses you can buy at the cities.
This game was hard for me to initially get into..but this stream and all its information really provided the support I needed... And Old Man Gamer (who I will assume return to Outward 2 as well)... the build diversity, and items and unique look really make this game a must buy for me.
I was just introduced to this game around last month and didn't even realize they're releasing outward2. I also had struggles at the very beginning at it was seriously fun to see so many things happening just walking outside and dying because of all the debuffs I ignored and thought they'd be gone after a few seconds, at that point on, I noticed it was seriously a diamond in the rough and I fell in love with the game.
I loved watching Outward content on your channel as it helped me complete the game and was fun to watch! I will say that I am super excited for the second game and I'm glad that they will keep the combat system in-tact I do hope they keep the things that made the combat good and reallllly improve upon the aspects that were, well, not so good. With combat being the way that it was it meant that the world had to be largely empty outside of dungeons. I also hope to see side quests that give a reason to locate and go through these dungeons, it isn't a deal breaker for me because I went through every dungeon in the first game without needing side quests but it would be nice to have a reason to go to these dungeons other than personal curiosity.
Just something that i noticed,the windigo guy looks like hes taller than a normal human and has become disfigured and his limbs seem to be longer and he has horns that look like the windigo horns,i think that they arent taming the windigos but are becoming ones themselves
I've come back from a long slumber after hearing the elusive words... "Outward 2". Seems like Outward fan will have a good time with this. I myself is thrilled!
That clip of a sigil+spark covering you in shadow for what i assume is a stealth buff id a BIG plus for me, cos that means there's gonna be close quarters stealth combat and more varied utility spells outside of the Runic spell comboes.
Hey hey! Partner and I are so excited for this! I, for once, am speechless and so surprised. I seem to remember the devs said there would be no more Outward after DE. All I can say is: !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The vast majority of the information we got was just exactly what was needed and no more. I like that they aren't trying to upend the whole system and do something completely different, just refining and polishing what was already there. VERY curious how the pack mules are going to work, that could end up being really nice or really tedious imo.
My biggest concern with pack mules is food. Bigger creature means more food which means less space for shiny loot. But honestly the first game was simply lacking polish imo. Sure somethings could have been added or changed (which the second seems to be doing) but mostly it came down to clunky controls & balance.
In Q&A it has also been confirmed that they want to release other two games first(the Rogue like game, and Witherbloom) before they release Outward 2. the other 2 games also look very nice, but it would also be quite nice to mention that Outward 1 was made under several constrictions and limitations, which have been lifted now that they are bigger studio. Meaning we can expect better production quality for Outward 2.
I played recently Outward with my girlfriend and we used a lot your guides mate! I was looking to see your review about the new trailer. Your guides are amazing!
Incredible insight!! I've watched this trailer manyyy times and yet never catched soo many details as you unraveled them. Got my hype even more up for this sequel!
They're definitely wearing a Mongolian style deel in the snow cave scenes. They even put an ulzi decoration on the back. I'm looking forward to seeing what other influences they might have used for the clothing and architecture.
So upset I only just found out about this today, I am EXTREMELY hyped for this game. Outward has to be one of my top 5 most favorite games of all time.
Outward 2, arhh im so happy. Its so good, that they are making it, and the magic looks amazing again. I hope runic magic makes a return i loved that skill tree first tree i used and it was soo fun to use. Also i love you use of the outward music
I never got far in this game, but I played it for a bit with my gf. We never even fought any bosses but it was a fun but hardcore experience nonetheless. We did clear the castle at the beach, barely. I'll never forgot the feeling when we both found out there was a season-cycle and we constantly had to carry torches because our clothing was not appropriate for winter. I played the game a bit solo as well. The whole ''your gear is your power'' idea is so cool. Great memories. Will check Outward 2 for sure!
Well I'll be damned 13:26 our boi Gregory Turnbull actually managed to pull it off effectively helping the immaculate, if that's the case then there's a possibility of playing as an immaculate!
Only thing from the CEO recap that disappoints me is the "8 total skill trees will be included". I guess that's the same as base outward before DLC, but I would hope for more in a base sequel.
Thanks for the video! Big Outward fan here as well so obviously got insanely hyped once it was dropped!! Btw could it be "lesser wendigo's"? Their hands look similar, neck beginning to stretch etc. Could be wendigo's in the making, so to say.
After all the talk about not making an Outward 2 any time soon... I'm both happy and sad. Happy for Outward 2 being in development and sad because the trust of the company just took a hit.
Thanks for another great video! I wanted to mention 2 things though. When you stated the different regions you misspelled volcano and according to an interview with PC Gamer those are pack mules and not mounts.
If we get mounts I hope they are subject to survival like the player. Overencumbered = slow mount Hot/cold effects Mounts need to eat/drink Mounts can bleed, get sick, die As long as the mounts follow the same rules, I could see the balance integrity still safe. Even better if your mount can get frightened and run off mid battle. Should be risk vs reward for every pedantic step like that. I hope ...
Rune magic must live on... Though I think they need to remove or reduce drastically mana cost reduction. It had the same problem as skyrim where investing a ton into magic didn't actually make you a better mage as you could get the costs down to close to 0. Have the gear increase the power of spells, and cost the spells appropriately in the first place.
I'm so happy especially for you bro 🤗 since you spended so so much time in outward, also making toons of helpful video about it 😊 so for you it's amazing 🤩 but also for me
To me it feels like it would have been a very nice DLC instead of a new game. Missed opportunity to fix the first game since that was kind of boring if played alone, as you said "too much walking". Hopefully they nail it with this one because I would love to jump back
Really hope they go out all for Outward 2 I really liked the 1st but it got really repetitive for me I don’t like the enemy npc placement and lack of variety with them so hope they will expand on that but sounds like the game is going to be essentially the same just in a different region with a few gameplay and graphical improvements
I would really like to know if we’ll get shared storage boxes this time around. As much as I loved Outward 1, it was extremely annoying having to travel back and forth to collect items in the boxes of the player houses in each of the regions
I know I will like the game I just hope they give us more quick slots this time for PC users, I really think it is needed if the game is goin to build up in its skills and Tools also make traps more easy to place.
I feel like those “yeties “ you call them near the Wendigo are actually young Wendigos, or rather human that is in the transformation process. the long necks and hair hint at it, as well as in one moment when you have one of the full grown Wendigos next to them, the more humanoid ones have small horns that are really similar to the adult + the adult has remains of the clothes and necklace the young one wears and I doubt Wendigos let other species dress them XD
I don't want to be that guy but I fully expect Outward 2 to be everything Outward 1 was and more, like a gigantic improvement to the point where it makes the prequel look like a beta version of the game. I swear there was so much they could have added or changed with the original game before release, and don't get me wrong, I love the game, but I really think the sequel is going to be the epitome of what Outward can be
I do hope we get some mounts cause later on in a playthrough traveling back and forth between regions would take so much time and I feel like fast travel wouldn't fit the game too well mounts however feel perfect for the game
This does make me wonder. did our Jim, stay or did he chase history? basing if off what we find in Caldera our first character might be travelling due to the journal from the Grandmother boss.
It would be kinda cool if you could go to the original game region (a dlc?) in outward 2. Spruce it up with more love and I'd be happy. Also would like to know where the calgray and the djin came from
Hopefully archers will be expanded upon, the reason I didn't play is cause archery seemed a bit meh. I'd like it, if there is a pet skill that will allow you to tame a pet if you have the skill, so I could go an archer pet tamer build. But the number one thing needs to be co-op players able to get the rewards of the host. That was the main reason I didn't play outward 1 far into the game.
Sheen! Random but if I am doing a pure two handed melee build in Outward and I want a little mana to cast some boons, how many points of mana do I assign in the mountain? I think you said awhile back it was like 2? Lmk and thank you!
Edit 2: I wrote this before the very end bit so most of these points have already been talked about THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER!!!!! I'M SO EXCITED!!! It better be local two player though because the main time i do it is with my dad! Can't wait 😅 Edit: I hope they nail the soundtrack again, that's perfection. Do you think we can go to Haboob now? It's been on the map forever and it's infuriating! 🤣
I'm pretty sure the horned-yeti guys that walk alongside the wendigos, are actually just guys in the process of turning into wendigos.
That’s exactly what I was thinking
Did you notice the human skeletal face in the roof of the wendigos mouth?
@@faszikilawang8445 Oh, good catch!
I was thinking the same thing
The "yeti" creatures could be immature Wendigos, they're growing little deer horns and their human skeletons are already elongating, similar to how the infected bug men eventually become hive lords
That's DEFINITELY the case. I'm kinda surprised that Sheen didn't realize those long neck blue guys were just Wendigos in the process, not some other species.
Very nice to see people appreciate our works like you and the main raison why I work to produce as high quality stuff as I can so player like you to enjoy as much as possible. Love your content too :)
Never have been more excited than I was to try out a new build in Outward. Can wait to see what possibilities there are in the next!
Animations are looking a lot more organic. There’s serious weight put behind the shield charge as it looks like they go for a slight superman jump putting their back foot down.
The physics on clothing also adds so much too! Atleast IMO
@@hunterwoller4216 Agreed. Nothing beats a cape that moves in the digital wind.
Things I would like to see in Outward 2:
1. More ranged weapons, more specifically, Rifles, Crossbows, and Hand-Crossbows. Guns deal the most damage, crossbows have the best special ammo, and bows have the best speed.
2. Self-Training. Basically, you spend enough stamina, and you'll get a small boost to it. Eat too much food and you become fat, so you have more health and less stamina, eat too little and the effect is reversed. Maybe also special skills you can learn yourself if you accomplish certain things?
3. Better Crafting. Expand upon the basic crafting system to also include blacksmithing, maybe also make it so you're an active participant in the crafting? (Like the Jacksmith game)
4. MINIONS!!! At inns in various cities, you can hire mercenaries to help you fight and explore. If you don't want to spend money, you can summon a familiar/demon/spirit/etc using a new type of magic called summoning/demonology/spirit calling. This would make support builds viable solo and give an excuse to add more team-centric abilities.
5. Base-Building. At the very most, allows you to build your own home in certain places onthe map. At the very least, allows you to upgrade and customize the houses you can buy at the cities.
Absolutely great ideas. I really like the self training one, It would make the game feel amazing.
03:44 Damn I never thought wendigos had a human skull underneath, that's horrifying
This game was hard for me to initially get into..but this stream and all its information really provided the support I needed... And Old Man Gamer (who I will assume return to Outward 2 as well)... the build diversity, and items and unique look really make this game a must buy for me.
This.
I've bounced off Outward several times and same as you - guides and help from Sheenshots was the thing that helped me git gud. Thanks man! 😁
I was just introduced to this game around last month and didn't even realize they're releasing outward2. I also had struggles at the very beginning at it was seriously fun to see so many things happening just walking outside and dying because of all the debuffs I ignored and thought they'd be gone after a few seconds, at that point on, I noticed it was seriously a diamond in the rough and I fell in love with the game.
I am excited to see outward content on your channel again! See you in Haboob!
I am so excited and can't wait. I was just browsing the steam store and came across the Outward 2 page. What a massive bonus to my day!
In French "tremontain" literally translates to "very mountainous" lmao
🤣 Its Tramontane ! ;) It s a cold strong harsh wind ,you have in southern France s mountains and valleys
I'm so happy.
So many great games in both this year and the near future,
Dragons Dogma 2, GreedFall 2, Shadow of the Erdtree and now Outward 2.
Gotta love the classic Outward backpack stride
Thanx for the video dude ! Now I need more life extention to be able to play O2 ! Cant wait ! Hype is very high !
I loved watching Outward content on your channel as it helped me complete the game and was fun to watch! I will say that I am super excited for the second game and I'm glad that they will keep the combat system in-tact I do hope they keep the things that made the combat good and reallllly improve upon the aspects that were, well, not so good.

I also hope to see side quests that give a reason to locate and go through these dungeons, it isn't a deal breaker for me because I went through every dungeon in the first game without needing side quests but it would be nice to have a reason to go to these dungeons other than personal curiosity.
Id really like an multiplayer lobby where people can tag themselves for different playstyles, looking for help, and maybe just make a few friends.
Just something that i noticed,the windigo guy looks like hes taller than a normal human and has become disfigured and his limbs seem to be longer and he has horns that look like the windigo horns,i think that they arent taming the windigos but are becoming ones themselves
The LONG necks are a dead giveaway.
I've come back from a long slumber after hearing the elusive words... "Outward 2".
Seems like Outward fan will have a good time with this. I myself is thrilled!
That clip of a sigil+spark covering you in shadow for what i assume is a stealth buff id a BIG plus for me, cos that means there's gonna be close quarters stealth combat and more varied utility spells outside of the Runic spell comboes.
Hey hey! Partner and I are so excited for this! I, for once, am speechless and so surprised. I seem to remember the devs said there would be no more Outward after DE. All I can say is:
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
They didn't lie. There was no more Outward. This is Outward 2.
Sick! cant wait to drink all that tea again

I’m excited to watch you playing this game more than I am playing it. It was only your builds and excitement that pushed me to finish the original.
In Q&A it has also been confirmed that they want to release other two games first(the Rogue like game, and Witherbloom) before they release Outward 2. the other 2 games also look very nice, but it would also be quite nice to mention that Outward 1 was made under several constrictions and limitations, which have been lifted now that they are bigger studio.

I was looking to see your review about the new trailer. Your guides are amazing!
Very excited for this game and also to see you making outward content again, it’s what brought me to your channel in the first place.
Im so glad we will have a new and fresh outward contents from you when this is released!
Incredible insight!! I've watched this trailer manyyy times and yet never catched soo many details as you unraveled them. Got my hype even more up for this sequel!
So excited for this! Outward 2 can't come soon enough! No other game can scratch that itch, I've done way too many playthoughs on the first...
Finally! We'll get to find out what all the other regions look like. Can't wait!
Im so glad to have a friend so hype to play this in coop like me. Being doing countless playthroughs with him. Such an unrivaled immersion experience.
They're definitely wearing a Mongolian style deel in the snow cave scenes. They even put an ulzi decoration on the back. I'm looking forward to seeing what other influences they might have used for the clothing and architecture.
Awesome vid! Nice editing too :D So excited for Outward 2!
Ive been waiting for this breakdown. Thanks for the lore!
So upset I only just found out about this today, I am EXTREMELY hyped for this game. Outward has to be one of my top 5 most favorite games of all time.
Praise Elatt! I get to die from lack of sleep or pecked to death by those pearl bird cutthroats again!
Excited for this hope we can have more quick slots literally only thing stopping from having different builds
So hyped!! Thanks for the video Sheen
I hope this will be just as cozy, if not more than the first game, and they better have those cozy sounds as well
Outward 2, arhh im so happy. Its so good, that they are making it, and the magic looks amazing again. I hope runic magic makes a return i loved that skill tree first tree i used and it was soo fun to use. Also i love you use of the outward music

One can hope!
idk what say here but i NEED say something just to hype ur channel because ur the best content creator and im excited for outward 2
Only thing from the CEO recap that disappoints me is the "8 total skill trees will be included". I guess that's the same as base outward before DLC, but I would hope for more in a base sequel.
Thanks for the video! Big Outward fan here as well so obviously got insanely hyped once it was dropped!!
Btw could it be "lesser wendigo's"? Their hands look similar, neck beginning to stretch etc. Could be wendigo's in the making, so to say.
8:43
everything i saw in the trailer has me hooked. only thing i can hope for is that we do not have to wait too long for this.
After all the talk about not making an Outward 2 any time soon...
I'm both happy and sad. Happy for Outward 2 being in development and sad because the trust of the company just took a hit.
I can't wait for this! Loved Outward!
Looking forward to the PAX demo if there would be any footage released!
Thanks for another great video! I wanted to mention 2 things though. When you stated the different regions you misspelled volcano and according to an interview with PC Gamer those are pack mules and not mounts.

So exited! feels like everything that i wanted for outward is being added in outward2
I seriously hope the disney animation movement is just for the cgi. it looks incredibly out of place for outward.
Was waiting for your upload
I'm so happy especially for you bro 🤗 since you spended so so much time in outward, also making toons of helpful video about it 😊 so for you it's amazing 🤩 but also for me
agreed watched your videos on outward years ago you did good thx.
Dude, where is my backpack? I hap to drop it before a fight and now I can’t find it. No other game have given me this unique experience.
what? O_O there is gonna be outward 2? nice!! Also, dude, chill out on the outward spoilers will you?
The game looks so good, I hope Outward 2 will have split-screen coop like the first one.
If you look at the steam page it shows a image of slitp screen and 2 players at the same time, so I would say its definitely back in the game.
Ninedots CEO confirmed Split screen will be back
@@christophersanders7877 LETS GOO!!!
NO mounts. But there ARE confirmed pack mules. They have health and can die permanently, and need to be fed and healed and sleep etc…
Nunca pensei que diria isso mas será minha primeira pre order em anos .
Dual Blades bro !!!!!
Uma montaria também seria bem vinda.
I'm happy, yet another way for people to say "we are going home" (mine will be stalker 2)
The hype is real! Can't wait until we to play it!
What the heck is a Valcano Sheen?? XD Anyways your videos got me into Outward and now i cant wait to get back in there. Hope this comes out soon
To me it feels like it would have been a very nice DLC instead of a new game. Missed opportunity to fix the first game since that was kind of boring if played alone, as you said "too much walking". Hopefully they nail it with this one because I would love to jump back
Incredible hype for Outward 2
Really hope they go out all for Outward 2 I really liked the 1st but it got really repetitive for me I don’t like the enemy npc placement and lack of variety with them so hope they will expand on that but sounds like the game is going to be essentially the same just in a different region with a few gameplay and graphical improvements

I feel like those “yeties “ you call them near the Wendigo are actually young Wendigos, or rather human that is in the transformation process.
the long necks and hair hint at it, as well as in one moment when you have one of the full grown Wendigos next to them, the more humanoid ones have small horns that are really similar to the adult
+ the adult has remains of the clothes and necklace the young one wears
and I doubt Wendigos let other species dress them XD
The Kazite actually are the Asian-inspired race and the Tramon are the African-inspired race.
I don't want to be that guy but I fully expect Outward 2 to be everything Outward 1 was and more, like a gigantic improvement to the point where it makes the prequel look like a beta version of the game. I swear there was so much they could have added or changed with the original game before release, and don't get me wrong, I love the game, but I really think the sequel is going to be the epitome of what Outward can be
Cant wait for the Sheenshots videos for Outwards 2!!!
Yo sheen. Did you not watch the dev CEO Q&A? He said no mounts. The boar is a pack mule
He did say it in the last part
12:44 Extra Info
Every time your name pops up on my feed all I can think of is Charlie & Martin 😅
I do hope we get some mounts cause later on in a playthrough traveling back and forth between regions would take so much time and I feel like fast travel wouldn't fit the game too well mounts however feel perfect for the game
SheenShots is going going full-circle!!!!
with only 8 classes at launch i hope they add in the hex magic and rune magic
A new era begins
I still play outward 1 and this looks amazing
Can't wait for Outward 2. And mostly, can't wait to see you destroy everything in it!
This does make me wonder.
did our Jim, stay or did he chase history?
basing if off what we find in Caldera our first character might be travelling due to the journal from the Grandmother boss.
Gonna be waiting for the streams!! ❤❤
its pack mules 10:49 , confirmed by dev in a qna sesh a week ago.
12:44 Extra Info
Oooooh, the hype is real. It's gonna be fantastic!
It would be kinda cool if you could go to the original game region (a dlc?) in outward 2. Spruce it up with more love and I'd be happy.
Also would like to know where the calgray and the djin came from
according to steam the game has splitscreen, remoteplay and online coop*
It'd be cool if we could import our saves, carrying over decisions made, like say whispering bones showing up at some point.
Hopefully archers will be expanded upon, the reason I didn't play is cause archery seemed a bit meh. I'd like it, if there is a pet skill that will allow you to tame a pet if you have the skill, so I could go an archer pet tamer build.
But the number one thing needs to be co-op players able to get the rewards of the host. That was the main reason I didn't play outward 1 far into the game.
Definitely excited!
I am crazy excited!! I am still dumbfounded that it’s real omg
Sheen! Random but if I am doing a pure two handed melee build in Outward and I want a little mana to cast some boons, how many points of mana do I assign in the mountain? I think you said awhile back it was like 2? Lmk and thank you!
Some news about the coop? Is it going to have better integration with quest and gameplay in general?
Edit 2:
I wrote this before the very end bit so most of these points have already been talked about
THIS IS THE BEST THING EVER!!!!! I'M SO EXCITED!!! It better be local two player though because the main time i do it is with my dad! Can't wait 😅
Edit:
I hope they nail the soundtrack again, that's perfection. Do you think we can go to Haboob now? It's been on the map forever and it's infuriating! 🤣
Sheen, did you see the step dodge?
i wonder if tsar armor set would make a return, some improvement would be welcomed also
I really hope there will be a mount such as like a horse or something maybe a giant pearl bird idk
the faces look soooo much better. lol
You a fan of The Canadian Lad?
