The Outer Worlds 2 Although it is sometimes afraid to show its teeth, it is necessarily satire. The sequel goes further than purely showing the horrors of late-stage capitalism as the free market expands into space to show how economic ideologies of various extremes collide.
But sometimes reality is stranger than fiction, and the way games sometimes bring out reality is what makes them truly humorous. Because amid all that big corporate business, who could have imagined a military succession crisis involving a supposedly sentient mantisaurus?
How to Pinch the Chrysalis Quest

After speaking with Wentworth, he will explain that Wotjek wants to recruit more Mantisaurs to his ranks. And it just so happened that A geranium-infused mantis nest to the east.. If you can get one of the pupae there, that mantisaurus can be raised as part of Auntie's Choice. Doesn’t that sound completely reasonable?

But to find the pupa, you have to go deep into the mantisaurus burrow, even further east.
