Odd. I just continued seamlessly.

Ah yeah you are right. about 5 minutes through the credits it finally popped up the "hit esc to skip credits" and when I did so, the only options were quit game. I went back and kept waiting watching the credits but every time i hit escape to skip them, i only had the choice to quit game. apparently if you just wait out the credits you eventually will continue the game.

Too late now I already went back to an earlier save and started Iki island

i wonder if i was just in the wrong mood when i played this game, i 100%'d the base game (not the DLC) and just found it kinda bland. oh well, GoT 2 coming in a year or two i'll definitely play that

should play the DLC but its tough to go back to these kind of games

idk it could just be that I was in a specific mood but I really enjoyed this story. Unlike Assassin's Creed: N*ggas in ParisKyoto, this one is actually based on somewhat historically accurate events.

I'm very much anti-weeb especially after being stationed in Japan for 10 years and dealing with weebs drooling over the latest anime who's story essentially revolves around "+9000 power!!!" week after week, so I am perhaps, overcritical of games based in/on Japan. idk I just enjoyed the central conflict of losing ones honor to overcome an enemy that has no honor, the whole bushido samurai vs ronin/ninja dichotomy and the choices the game forces you to make.

I don't know man the story just slaps. Then again I thought Outriders had one of the best storylines/plots/twists of the 20th century so take it for what its worth. And I don't mean "video game stories" I mean one of the best stories out of any media, period. If I were a Hollywood dude I would be adapting it into a sci-fi movie asap. It's sad when a 20 hour looter shooter campaign delivers a more compelling storyline than a 300 hour open world RPG filled with quests.
