Outer Wilds

Another game lost tragically to it's awful introduction. The first time I played the game I forced myself through it for over 20 minutes but this time I couldn't go past 10 minutes without falling asleep.

I understand that many like this game. I just cannot get behind the ship controls, too tedious for me to enjoy the rest.

play this. good game. 10/10. even better actually. 22/10.

The music was nice. That's about where my praise ends. Outer Wilds is built entirely around a mystery, and the mystery is supposed to be what pulls you forward. For me it never did. The intrigue just isn't there, and once you get to the end, the story underneath all that buildup is subpar at best. The ending is where the ambition outruns the writing. Rather than delivering a payoff that reframes everything before it, it hands the job of finding meaning over to the player. That's a familiar trope, and this game falls right into it. Then there's the "go in blind" culture around it. Nearly every recommendation comes with a warning not to learn anything beforehand, because knowing the plot supposedly ruins the whole thing. Think about what that admits. If both the story and the gameplay lose their meaning the moment you know what's coming, the mystery is the crutch holding the entire game together. A story that's actually good holds up when you know where it's headed. A lot of the praise here comes from people protecting that illusion rather than from anything the game delivers. Save your money and your time. If you want a story that earns its reputation, play Silent Hill 2, NieR: Automata, BioShock Infinite, or God of War Ragnarök. Their endings snap shut and change how you see everything that came before. Outer Wilds just asks you to believe it did.

神中神 非要强行找茬只能找到一个茬：无攻略开荒的情况下有些解谜其实思路正确，但因为操作不当没能成功，容易让人反复绕圈。或许可以在已经在沿着正确思路尝试的时候给个小音效之类的提示我就该这么弄。 比如我自己彗星冰面/沙漏星传送至双星计划都是收集到了线索 -> 拟了个方法且之后发现就是正解 -> 但因为操作不当第一次没成功 -> 以为是方法不对所以开始找别的方法 -> 绕了一大圈都不对最终只能查攻略发现就是一开始的思路 -> 少了一些成就感。 但0.1瑕不掩100瑜

Do yourself an favor and play it

Хоть и есть вопросы к НЕОЧЕВИДНОМУ важному телепорту, игра реально чилловая👍. Хотелось бы ещё чего-то подобного. Концовка с понятной идеей, но, как по мне, сделана излишне артхаустно. Не понял претензий негодующих к привязке событий ко времени: 1. Их немного, и даже у тех есть скипы, если изучать локации глубже. 2. Игра про день сурка.
