Love Obsidian so I’m happy that Outer Worlds 2 is awesome so far, so much better than the first one.Got naked to see if NPCs reacted, and well, let’s just say these vids show the independently reactive nature of NPCs/the world in general. pic.twitter.com/XuFnZOdfjcOctober 30, 2025
One Reddit post showcases several moments (embedded above): crew member Niles quips, “Should I be averting my eyes, or?” You can pretend not to notice or lean into your nudity — which, given the game’s far-future setting, feels like a fittingly irreverent choice. Goodbye, Victorian prudery.
Another clip features Earth directorate official Augustine de Vries chastising you for turning up to “a professional mission briefing” like you’ve wandered in from “a naturist social club.” There are likely many more reactions like this later on — I’m tempted to start a dedicated naked-run save to see just how far the game will go.
There are no gameplay perks or penalties tied to running around nude, but check out the Best Outer Worlds 2 Flaws guide for alternatives, and consult the All Outer Worlds 2 companions guide to recruit every ally.
