But it’s true. Play Outer Wilds. Don’t look anything up!
fr though, play Outer Wilds. Don’t look anything up.
Outer wilds was great but going to some of the planets gave me the willies so hard I haven’t finished it.
Unpopular opinion warning: After absolutely adoring Subnautica I was excited to try Outer Wilds as I was told it was similar. But for some reason despite my best efforts I just never got myself to care about it. It must be having to start over and over again and having a time limit to do anything that just annoys me too much. I get what they were going for and you can really tell it was made with a lot of love. But it was just not for me.

Unpopular opinion warning: after playing and adoring Outer Wilds, I played Subnautica and, while it’s a fine game, I’m having trouble getting engrossed in it. I’ve never been much of a fan of survival games, though (apart from Minecraft if it counts?) and Subnautica may be my favorite in that category… But it’s still firmly in that category
I really enjoyed it up until the end, where I knew exactly what needed to happen, but I couldn’t figure out how to do it. When I finally looked it up, it was the most unintuitive solution that felt more like an easter egg than the intended path. I would have never finished it on my own, which left a bad taste in my mouth.
Yeah, the flow of the game is interesting and unique but the trick is bullshit
The logs explain what you need to do…
Yea you got logs and an info board on your ship that explained it.
Maybe I’m just weird but haven’t played it yet because I don’t have much reason to play it… I want to know why I should play it but not enough to just go play it.
That usually means it’s a knowledge-based game and the fun is in the figuring out. Tunic had a similar feel even though the gameplay was very different.
It’s weird, I absolutely adored Tunic, it’s one of my favorite games of all time, yet Outer Wilds was just “alright” for me? Like IGN 7/10 good but nothing to write home about.
Part of that was probably because I felt constant nausea due to being unaccustomed to playing 3D games with controller - the fact half of the game occured in space with two additional axis of rotation significantly worsened it.
