Spoiler: [spoiler]this is a very good game[/spoiler]
Spoilers: Came in with super high expectations from my friends glazing the game, and to put it short: I am disappointed. I think after some reflection and watching a YouTube video or two, the story overall is quite solid. There are some things I like, some things I don't. I had a hard time getting emotionally invested in the other hearthians, it felt more like they were all the same dude copy & pasted with little to no variations in their personalities. Except for Feldspar. The Nomai were fun, the dialogue was quite interesting and their personalities became quite apparent as I was reading. I enjoyed that quite a lot. The gameplay I did not really enjoy at all. I felt very insanely lost. Now, I know that is the point of the game and is likely aimed to make you feel excited about exploring these new and unique planets but all it did was make me feel discouraged and not really want to continue playing. The only reason I got through it was due to my friends being in a Discord call; assisting me if I ever got stuck to the point where I wanted to give up. I wouldn't recommend this game to anyone, probably. I don't think it's worth spending your money or time on.
This game has a ton of great ideas; some of them, it executes flawlessly. Unfortunately, those ideas do not all cohere unless you are comfortable with murder suicide. That said, as a vibes-based experience, it's pretty neat. The first few hours are unlike anything else in gaming, and that alone might make it worth it for you.
Eh not really my genre but ill give it a try. Oh my god, i get it now. Genuinely an astounding game!
星际拓荒治好了我的晕3D(bushi),最初的十小时,不愿意面对一个陌生的新游戏,再加有点晕3D,断断续续玩了10小时,后面就没有玩了。(但是这个时候已经初见端倪了,顶着晕3D玩到想吐了才不玩)。某一天,我突然想到,许多我生命中重要的事物与回忆,最初都是陌生的,未知的,有点令人抗拒的,而我已经连打开一个新游戏玩十分钟的耐心都没有了,一个接一个的短视频刷完就忘了,正如我随之消散的生命。假如我不曾选择探索那些生命中美好的东西,那是多么遗憾的事啊,我想我并不后悔尝试。于是我删掉手机上的视频软件,沉下心来重新玩了星际拓荒,这是我曾经一直想体验的游戏。几小时后,游戏的乐趣便逐渐显现出来,每一个新东西都让我想了解更多,甚至连一开始担心的晕3D都神奇的消失了。然而在新鲜逐渐减少后,只剩下一些怎么也解不开的谜,一些怎么也找不到的未探索内容,有时我的种种猜想都被证明是错的,或者把问题想复杂了,几个小时都没有推进剧情,没有正反馈的时候是真的很难受,又不能查攻略,绝望地看着星空,差点放弃了,感觉纯属浪费时间。我一直以为游戏的唯一目的就是解密和看剧情,但正是在无法解密和看剧情的时候,我仿佛真正地走进了这个世界,感受到了这个游戏。也正是在这时,山重水复疑无路,柳暗花明又一村,上一秒还在看不见希望地尝试,下一秒就突然破局,发出和游戏中角色一样的赞叹,我想我真的体会到和他们一样的心情。正是那些花费的时间才使得在迷茫中顿悟如此珍贵。连玩几天共40个小时通关了,感谢游戏优秀的音乐陪我度过这段时光。 所莱内姆说:“挪麦人信奉两大人生信条:寻找和理解是我们生命的意义。”
Прошел этот шедевр, скачав с торрента. Настолько мне эта игра понравилась, что я решил поддержать разработчиков и купил игру вместе с длс уже в стиме. Лучше игры вы в жизни не найдёте, по крайней мере для себя я точно не найду.
Imagine playing this game while listening to Interstellar
Clearly astroturfed.
"The universe is, and we are" Outer Wilds não é apenas um jogo, mas uma experiência única que desperta a sua curiosidade e anseio por descobrir mais sobre o seu universo único e criativo, combinado com uma história e trilha sonora marcante. Se você tem a coragem de mergulhar no desconhecido, prepare os seus marshmellows, coloque seu traje espacial, embarque no foguete e não esqueça: "Temos mais à explorar."
[h1] [b] One of the best cozy mystery-driven space exploration sandbox games I've ever played. 10/10 [/b] [/h1] I also fell in love with the main theme/soundtrack long before I even played the game, and somehow it became even more special after finishing it. This is truly one of those great games you can only experience once and not allowed to talk about at the same time. [h1] [b] "The universe is, and we are." [/b] [/h1]
