10/10 game. Absolutely WEEPED during the endings to both the main game and the DLC. I am so glad I avoided spoilers all these years.
I ♥♥♥♥♥♥ myself over so bad because I was stuck on a section and found the wiki page to figure it out and it turned out it was the vessel codes and I spoiled myself of the entire Nomai story. I ruined it for myself but I still 100%'d and got some of the magic back. Honestly top 5 story games oat
Masterpiece
THE BEST STORY BASED GAME IVE PLAYED. CANT SAY NOTHING ELSE GO PLAY IT NOT ONLY GOOD IT BEST!!!!!!!!!!
yeah top tier game never felt this dumb 11/10
JOGUE
one of the best games I've ever played. Very few games give you this level of true freedom to discover at your own pace and learn more and more about the world around you.
I haven't even seen the ending yet, and I already know two things for certain: I am absolutely going to sob, and I will be buying the DLC the exact second the credits roll. The Outer Wilds doesn't give you a skill tree or shoehorn you into making weapon upgrades; the only thing that levels up over the course of the game is your own brain power. The sheer dopamine buzz I keep getting when I finally connect the dots on this massive cosmic mystery is unmatched(?) in gaming. While the physics and flying occasionally test my patience (apologies to my ship's landing gear), the breath-taking exploration and the [b] phenomenal [/b] acoustic soundtrack take centre stage. Do yourself THE BIGGEST favour you'll make and play it completely blind. Just get in your rickety spaceship, listen to that banjo, and prepare to fall in love, again, and again, and again.
Unbelievable game. so well crafted with an experience that sits with you long after finished
play it now
