brilhante, uma obra prima contemporânea loop amarrado com a história via permadeth q sempre ocorre é uma sacada genial. realmente te faz explorar, sem pegar na sua mão - narrativa com texto minimalista, q deixa intrigado (junto com o loop bizarro é simples de tirar lágrimas) jogaço da porra
Increible
非常推荐 但是我不能剧透为什么推荐
Okay... I don't even have the words to describe how incredible this game is. Outer Wilds was as life-changing of an experience for me as any game can be. A true 10/10 game, and I do not say that often. Fans of Outer Wilds have said this before, but I would give anything to be able to forget this game, play it again, and relive the experience I had the first time. It's a one of a kind adventure. I can confidently say it is the best non-replayable game I have ever played. Outer Wilds holds up PERFECTLY in 2026. The base game (pre-DLC) took me about 18 hours to complete, but I haven't explored every detail yet and I definitely want to. Outer Wilds is unique in the fact that there is no progression, no upgrades... the only thing you take with you between each time loop is knowledge (aside from the ship's log, though that is your knowledge). Once you learn enough about what the Nomai were doing in the solar system, you can piece together what you can do to complete the game, though it was technically possible from the very start... The sense of adventure in this game is a combination of the exhilarating rocket mechanics, the profoundly deep visuals, music, and dialogue, the masterful planet design, and so much more. Outer Wilds is an open world game, an adventure game, and a story game all at once. The story is in the sweet spot. Not overwhelming, but enough to fulfill your thirst for knowledge and teach you everything you need to know. At any given time, if you get stuck in the weeds, you can explore a new planet and pick at a different section of the mystery. There are five overarching events you have to piece together, and there is no correct order. Have fun exploring and learn on the way. Certain mechanics also amazed me. The quantum stones and objects were oddly chilling to me, and the ship's construction is more in depth than you would think. I was really fascinated by the shifting sand of the Sunless City, and flying through Giant's Deep was so fun and refreshing! So much thought was put into every detail. I really could go on and on, but I'll stop myself here. If you're reading this review, I NEED you to buy this game and play it through, no spoilers. It's an experience I PROMISE you won't regret and if you don't you will be missing out more than I can describe. Outer Wilds will CHANGE you.
I love this game and all, but there are too many quantum angler fish and it scares me. I have constant [nightmare <--- (slay the princess reference) s] about the quantum angler fish. please help
The game is great, a lot like Myst but with planets instead of books. Not much else I can say about it that has not been said in every other positive review. Try to play the game as spoiler free as possible. Only thing I dislike about the game is [i]technically[/i] a spoiler, but I still kept it as vague as possible, so view at your own discretion. [spoiler]The hourglass twins are terrible and the final puzzle/thing you have to do is not fun. Both the hourglass twins [i]specifically ember twin with its "gimmick"[/i] and the last puzzle/thing to do adds unnecessary stress to an otherwise chill game.[/spoiler]
既然一切终将消散那么意义不在结果,而在“出发、 看见、相遇、记录”的全过程,挪麦人不是为了拯救 宇宙才观测星空,只是单纯想看清真相,而我们 探索星空也只是出于好奇
三个文明的接力,母庸质疑的神作
perfeito
Played both the base game and the DLC alongside my husband across many evenings. Highly recommend exploring this game on your own or with a loved one. Only sad I cannot experience it again for the first time. Very few games have left me in all the feels at the end like this one. One of my favorites in my library. Whatever Mobius is cooking up next...I am ready for it.
