The Outer Worlds – Stranger in a Strange Land Perfect Start (Episode 1) – No Commentary Walkthrough
In this first episode of my The Outer Worlds story walkthrough, we wake up from hibernation, crash‑land on Emerald Vale, and start the main quest “Stranger in a Strange Land.” We meet Phineas, explore the first region, get our bearings in the Halcyon colony, and start making small choices that hint at the game’s bigger moral dilemmas.
This is a clean, no‑commentary, story‑focused run with full dialogue and minimal HUD, so you can experience it like the pilot episode of a sci‑fi RPG series or follow along as a reference for your own playthrough.

Tips & Tricks for This Episode
Scan every container and body at the start – bits and basic gear make the early game much smoother.
Pay attention to corporate dialogue; it sets the tone for the kinds of choices you’ll face later (loyalty to companies vs people).
Use this episode to feel out your preferred weapon type (melee, pistols, long guns) before you start investing points heavily.
With no commentary and full dialogue, this episode works both as a clean story recap and a safe reference for new players who don’t want spoilers beyond the opener.
