Can You Beat HARDCORE Outward Using Only A Greataxe?

I dont understand what some people are upset that Outward 2 wont come out this year or next. Everyone needs to remember this game was not made by a massive game studio it was made by a small indie team i mean small they said a long time ago that when they were making the game that they didnt wanna be tied down to a release date/dead line they wanted there own time to work on it and what came out is a masterpiece in my opinion for a small indie dev team. Its like a open world dark souls like game before elden ring came out ofc i know theres some other games that were like that but this is one of them thats actually is good.

And i also see people complaning that Outward 2 will focuse more towards Roleplay...
Roleplay for a game means that world will change based on your choices not by dressing up as a anime character and going to weebcon whatever the fk its called idc. But the point is that its going to change the world you clear a fortress of shi now ppl live there and theres shops and a carvan showing up or join the people at the fort and commit crimes to join them. Oh shi theres a village under attack you fight off the attack save the town and no longer on fire or you help them raid the village and burn it down and now its a friendly bandit camp and your on good terms with them and can join them even learn bandit skills. Also RP can be being a knight or a wizard or archer some lord of the rings shit... Your not him lil bro😂. Your choice. So thats what they meant by roleplay.

Myrmitaur name explanation:
The "Myrm" part is a reference to "myrmidons", a Greek term appearing in Homer's Iliad referring to the soldiers commanded by Achilles. They took their name from their ruler, Myrmidon, who was the son of a princess who was seduced by the god Zeus (supposedly, in the form of an ant. Greek mythology is weird). In classical Greek, myrmedon translates to "ant nest", or ant people. That's why the myrmitaurs appear in a cave that is very similar to an ant nest.
The "Taur" part is a dual reference: a centaur is a mythological cross between a horse and a man, and it also references the Minotaur, a cross between a man and a bull that guarded the labyrinth that Daedalus was imprisoned in with his son Icarus. The Minotaur was the offspring of the daughter of King Minos and Zeus (again. Zeus was very, VERY horny for a god), this time Zeus took the form of a great bull, hence the half-bull bit. The star constellation Taurus, which is also a birthsign, is in the shape of a bull.

Hence, the name "myrmitaur" - Ant/bull hybrids. They charge aggressively, they have two horn-like protrusions on their heads, and they hatch from eggs in a nest very much like ants. Horrifying to contemplate, but undoubtedly quite creative on the part of the developers of Outward.

I would say both one and two handed axes are in a league of their own.

The special attack combo gets a 1.3x damage and impact multiplier on all their hits, which is nuts.

You can trade a bit of offense for better defense in making a build, and still deal as much if not more damage than other weapons thanks to the special combo.

The only real downside to the weapon is the stamina consumption, which is something you have to specifically build for moreso than any other weapon type. It’s a bit akward to get pain and confusion on a 2h axe, but you can come up with something if you really need it.

Are you gonna do one with halberd?

Pistol run?

I remember seeing this game a long while ago on Steam and thinking it looked pretty interesting, but I decided not to buy it in the end due to the mixed reviews. I wonder if it's worth buying now.

Love the outward content. Thanks for circling back every now and again to what i feel like is the roots of how i found you in the first place!

Greataxes are amazing. And stamina consumption to DPS ratio is really good. But they are probably one of the hardest weapons to master. Same as hammers and maces

Dress,strawhat and 2h axe kinda goes hard.

Do fist next please 🙏

Now the game needs to be beaten with one bad gloop

You're making me wanna play outward again lol

I've managed to get all achievements over 400ish hours and I did all endgame bosses with a tsar axe with wind imbue. It's disgusting with maximum physical dmg buffs. But yeah some enemies are a pain with its moveset.

Ngl Backlogs sent me over for the Salt and Sanctuary Content...but you not only got me sold as a subscriber... I think you sold me on giving this game another shot (played it once and got scared off by its...let's call them Eccentricities)

Oh wow, is there any weapon that is actually playable BUT the axe?!?

Somebody can explain me why has two skill trees when you have just 3 skills points ? i dont know much about the game but is amazing.

I've watched a lot of these videos but I got to watch this one as the greataxe is the only weapon I ever use.

I LOVE your Outward content, your guides etc. It's always a good time watching your videos, thank you sir.

Brother this adventure was so good and well edited, it inspired me to start a new run. Going to do again my favorite build. Dreamer halberd powered up by Primal ritualist, warrior monk and hex mage. It demolishes everything in the game with that green copal armor!

So I’ve played a decent bit of outward but I’m not nearly as skilled yet. I had an idea for a one handed sword/axe and dagger build, leaning on opportunists stab given that both main hand weapons have easy access to pain. The hard bit is getting confusion. Does the build seem viable or just kinda meh?

Can someone point me towards a Outward walkthrough? I really liked the game but I can't play it for long, if I have something to follow while I play it would be nice. I feel too lost

I have the weird habit of finding hidden gem games days before a sequel is announced

After you've done an all main and offhand weapons run (If you even consider doing that at all) could you do a Mertons run? Where you have to have all of Mertons items equipped? It would essentially double as a no armour run so you could kill two birds with one stone. :D

MAN, I'm so happy this is a series format, could binge watch this! Can't wait to see the one-hand + pistol!

i love that game but im soo bad at it.

Me and my brother used to play outward together all the time, then one of our controllers broke so we couldn’t anymore, now we’ve fixed the controllers and we can finally play this beauty again

I love these videos, This one inspired me to copy you and I've been replaying doing this build path. super fun!

we still playing this game
with Raid mod :3
4-6 players... and its fun!

Weirld choice for "hardcore" mechanic. Like you have perma-death, but maybe not, oh but maybe yes... or no
Lmao thats not a hardcore :D

I was never able to afford anything really. Im actually homeless 🙆🏾‍♂️

One thing I discovered while doing an only dagger run is that. You can enchant really early an iron weapon with unsuspected strength, killing the light elemental in the Voltaic Hatchery and picking up 2 dreamers root to make the admiral incense

As someone who doesnt like this game one bit because of the garbage melee combat this was super fun to watch. Thank you!

I love how in the start of this you seemed to be anticipating how slow and imbalanced the great axe is but you had no problem absolutely clobbering everything you came across. Great video!

OUTWARD at 2024 ? I love U !!!

Very happy to see you made this video.
You even narrate the whole adventure and cut the video nicely. gosh !

nice axing. But can you beat Outward definitv edition as a Troglodyte?

Went and bought this game because of this video. Wish me luck🫡

im Currently doing a hardcore no mana run myself! Having a lot of fun with it as im using the zagis set so lots of physical damage! I would love to see your take on it and what kind of build you would come up with! love your videos and love seeing your channel grow, been a fan for a few years now!

Ok dude!!! I started my 3'rd run HC on Outward and I got a Peralbird mask on my 2 kill, and 10 seconds after another damn drop. hahah! been a while I been so glad for a drop ^^
Keep going you are making so damn good content <3

I've never heard of you and I have no idea WTF an Outward is, but I like listening to you talking about it. Good job, nice video.

Wow! I was just watching your videos and man, the quality is amazing. I love your storytelling, it reminds me of the good old days of frankyonpcin1080p.

I'll have to watch more of your videos. They've inspired me to try again the game I abandoned long ago due to my lack of understanding of the gameplay. Keep up the good work!

Have I ever heard of this game? No. Am I about to watch a 2 hour video on it? Yes

I really like this fortmat, good narrating AND you give good tipps and tricks during your run.
I would really like to see the same run attempted with drum or chimes only, its a rather unpopular opinion, but Primal ritualist is my favorite class and there is not much coverage about it.

thanks for making so much contend on outward.

Nice. Preservation backpack underrated for keeping regional buff foods in good supply.

Just downloaded the game and Im so clueless 😂. Is it a must tu read all the dialogue to know my check point??

thank you so much for the gameplay and how narrative it is, please make more of these.

So glad having more content of outward from you. Even after the relentless grind in Three brothers i still go back from time to time.

Love the stuff. Love the Live ones too. I think your digs is the long form streams. keep it up!

My first playthrough at launch I used the green worldedge great axe
