#OuterWilds #GameCriticism
Remember, no spoilers. Outer Wilds is a game all about knowledge, you don't gain any abilities or unlock any mechanics. There is nothing stopping you from beating the game on your first run on a mechanical level, only your lack of knowledge keeping you from doing it. This is a game about exploration, discovery, and the importance of experience. If you haven't played Outer Wilds, I cannot recommend it highly enough.
This comment should be pinned.
You convinced me to play with this comment
ok düd
Question: what was the chat’s ritual for the end of the timeloop?
I’m gna do a video walkthrough for the entire game. Can’t wait
First game I've played where cosmic horror is shown in a positive light.
Interesting I’m gonna have to play it
@@Commandosoap777 it's definitely not for everyone tho
If it's shown in a positive light, then it's not horror. Might be cosmic awe.
@@user-uq4gr5nl5o i can say after playing it for myself with no issues with cosmic horror something about the way you experience the cosmic horrors and what they are can be very unsettling when you first experience it
It is in fact a game for everyone. In my opinion lol
My review for Outer Wilds will always be: by the end I was crying and I wasn't completely certain why, it was just beautiful.
Same. It took me some time to work out why I felt so spiritually connected to the ending. I think it's because it does something different from other games. In other games, movies, books, whatever, when there is a world-ending event, it is the protagonist's job to prevent it and save the world. Outer Wilds has a different take. It says, "there is no way to stop the end of the world. And even if you do save it, you will only wither away as the rest of the universe dies. But you know what? That's ok. It's ok that you can't save the world. It was fun while it lasted, and that's all that matters in the end."
I think that's such a profound and spiritually cathartic message that you just can't help but to get emotional about it
on point man
I'm hoping this video gets at least one person to play outer wilds. The game is just so good.
Watching him livestreaming the DLC convinced me to play it so theres at least one and probably many more
The base game is honestly one of the greatest media experiences of my life tbh. Unfortunately I had to leave while Vaush was playing the DLC, because I’m getting it next week and don’t want to be spoiled, but I’m glad to hear he loved it just as much as the main game. I’m so excited to play Echoes of the Eye
i skipped all his outer wilds gameplay streams because i have it in my steam library waiting to be played, but i’ve been putting it off. after hearing him rave about it i feel like i should start tonight lol
I'm gonna give it a try 😊
@@illegalhedgehog Hope you like it, it’s unforgettable lol
Vaush the first player to complete Outer Wilds
And the fastest
Zero deaths
And he didn't even read any of the ships logs. (True story look it up)
*5 minutes of incredibly intense confusion as I try to figure out how this review could possibly apply to The Outer Worlds because HOLY SHIT those names are WAY too similar*
They even released only several months apart, too. lol
Outer Wilds got done dirty and got completely overshadowed by the significantly-more-advertised The Outer Worlds
Wdym the 2 2019 space exploration games and GOTY contenders called Outer W*lds are too similarly named!?
@@contramuffin5814 What's funny to me was that I've never heard of Outer Worlds until a few years after its release. lol I only knew about Outer Wilds.
Outer Wilds is incredible. The DLC gave me feelings I haven't felt in a while. I felt like I knew the characters I only meet briefly, for years because I learned about them throughout the game. And the end of the DLC made me cry because of the stories I saw throughout. I hope the devs create another game of that calabur again.
I actually cried when I saw the prisoners last message. They were such a beautiful person that I wanted desperately to spend a lot more time with. I shed a few more tears when I got my wish.
I don't know a single thing about this game, but based on this video alone I'm going to start playing it.
Learn as little as possible about it while playing. Google nothing.
Don't look up anything else about it. Just play it blindly from here on out. Good luck! I hope you enjoy it!
Have you played it yet? 😁
Outer wilds is incredibly good. Play it blind, if the controls turn you off keep at it they will click and it will be like a whole new world.
Honestly I don’t understand why so many people who have quit the game said the controls were the problem I found 0 problem with them at all
Just started playing Outer Wilds last night, multiple times I had that "Oohhh, that's what that is" moment. Each loop I would see that thing blow up in the sky and kept saying "What the hell is that?", the first loop after I learned about it I said "Ooohhh, THAT's what that is. Wait, how is that what it is?.....Oohhhh...." lmao. I haven't experienced that kind of satisfaction in a game in a long time, every time I need to go back to somewhere cause I died I never felt it was tedious or was annoyed, I just really wanted to get back to see what I missed or didn't have time to find. If that was what just the first few hours where like for me I can't wait to see the rest of the game.
Excellent review. I would disagree that the sun exploding is not a spoiler though. Encountering that for the first time without any prior knowledge is one of the many joys of this game.
Outer wilds and the dlc, are hands down, the best game ever made. If someone doesn't love outer wilds, I immediately don't trust them or their opinion on games.
Objectively true, based and roasted marshmallow-pilled.
Its a good game but the BEST game? No. I'd put a decent amount of games above this but it is 100% in the top 10.
I still think Portal is my favorite game of all time, but Outer Wilds has come the closet to beating it. What a game, man.
Lets think, this game is really good but not for everybody
@@arlaux1099 What games, I'm genuinely interested given how vague you were with this response lol
This man tells no lie. Outer Wilds regenerated all of my supply of Indigo.
Something I 100% agree with Vaush about, I’m glad he said this as the game deserves to be played by anyone who enjoys video games, it’s truly one of the most creative and truly brilliant use of the medium of video games. As Vaush said, on a conceptual level it’s brilliant, but also as far as gameplay, flying your ship and having a jetpack feels great, and since the solar system is entirely simulated with actual physics, the gravity is ‘realistic’, or it’s not just like your character can float easily, sometimes you feel like the floor is sliding away from beneath you at an angle that you’re struggling to correct while also forcing your way back, which is a unique and satisfying feeling to correct.
The DLC also made me tear up, it’s an amazing expansion on top of an already brilliant game, go buy it if you haven’t. (Oh and it’s the developer’s first game, and it was made by like 12 people or something like that, so it’s even more impressive).
I think existential nihilism is actually very optimistic the fact that humans don’t exist for any purpose is a great thing because it allows us to make our own purpose
This is why religion is more pessimistic in my view the existence of an all knowing god that has given us divine purpose is actually really depressing when you think about it
I think less of people who don't like Outer Wilds (but are otherwise good at games). I consider it a critical failure of curiosity
Outer Wilds, The Stanley Parable, Return of the Obra Dinn, Portal 1 and 2, Wii Sports... Just ... universally good games.
I have yet to play Outer Wilds, but I've been hearing good about it for years. Your description of your experience with the game reminded me of my experience with Subnautica. Absolute masterpiece.
Honestly if I had the money, I'd buy the game for anyone that was even slightly interested in trying it. It's by far the best game I've ever played. Possibly even the best piece of media I've experienced.
Subnautica is a very good comparison, probably the closest in terms of exploration I've seen to Outer Wilds.
Subnautica is more about fear of the unknown. Outerwilds is almost entirely driven by curiosity and since dying doesn't matter there's nothing to stop you from being brave (or reckless) in the face of danger.
You know it's a good game when an astronomer feels like it's finnaly nailed the wonder of unraveling the mysteries of the universe.
I know this comment is a year ago but i’m considering buying it but when i searched outer wilds review no spoliers the first video that popped up was a video from point crow where the title spoiled the entire game but i hope it wasn’t right but idk if i should buy it now please help
@zMarsIsCool I finally put a little bit of time into it recently, and have enjoyed it a lot so far. But Diablo IV released, so my free time has been consumed by that. I'll get back to Outer Wilds soon hopefully.
True, it's amazing. For me, it's the scariest game ever even when it's not doing anything scary, just the spaces and being alone in the vastness...or not so alone in the bramble.
Sounds like a cool game. I've always leaned in the direction of exploration heavy games, especially Metroid and its spiritual successors. Hollow Knight in particular gave me feelings very similar to what Vaush describes, though part of its appeal was the fact that even the story was shrouded in mystery. The very plot that you take part in isn't really told to you in a straightforward way until nearly the end of the game, and even then to grasp that information you'd have to have spent a long time gathering information, and trying your best to deduce or induce the truth about the character you play and the role you take. An almost immeasurable amount of the story is left obscure, and that's what makes it truly satisfying to uncover it all and try to understand, and even if you manage to find every last scrap of information and absorb all the theories the fan community has put forward you can only be really left with the conclusion of "wow that sure was a lot of history I took part in, and I will never fully understand it."
Buy it as soon as you can. You'll love it.
Sounds like this is the perfect game for you
Play it! It keeps the story mysterious but actually gives you answers! I love hollow knight and it’s lore but it’s just not satisfying with so many unanswered questions and seemingly unfinished ideas. Outer wilds is much more straightforward, satisfying, and engaging story wise because of this. It’s a very very different experience but it’s sounds like you’d like it
4:08 Vaush's criticism of Nier Automata makes me wonder if he has even played it, because nothing like what he describes happens lol. Otherwise I agree that Outer Wilds is great.
One of the games where Id want some hard hit on the head to forget everything related to it. So I can experience it again "for the first time".
TBH. I am not able to finish the DLC, eye problems make the dark section really straining. Rest of the game is pure genius. The base game is better structured aswell, there are always bits and pieces that will capture you and send you on a new path. DLC is directing you towards one singular thing early.
Does the "reduce frights" option not help with the darkness a bit? I haven't tried it but I assumed it would make areas like that less dark so you don't get jumpscared.
@@verminscum no idea what that option does, certainly doesn't help the picture. The game just doesn't draw anything, so adjusting contrast doesn't help either (the specs of light are problematic, i get halos and starbursts that occlude the dark parts and generally mess with depth perception)
If you are desperate to beat the game I have a kind of spoilery trick that helps, let me know and I’ll tell you
The Reduced Frights option stops the [spoilers] from going fast. Could be very useful to not be under nearly as much pressure. Idk quite how bad your problems are tho
@@verminscum reduced frights just remove the scary audio cue when you're being hunted by the deer owls
unfathomably based
if you like videogames at ALL play this blind for the love of god
Dunno I found his gameplay of outerwilds as pretty boring so I didn't tune in to his more recent gaming streams. I've never understood the hype for it. However given that, I probably should play it for seeing what that genre of games has to offer. I say this because I typically not a fan of just exploring.
@@santaclauseking I don't wanna shit on the game too much too, but I literally fell asleep when playing during the start itself. Maybe I was just a bit tired, but after this happening for like two - three times, I had resigned it to one of those games that I don't understand the hype around too. Maybe I should try it again?
@@hypermiraclepositivegirl2415 I feel like there has to be something there. I mean in terms of anime I watched the first episode of death note and was disappointed. But then a year or so later I started it again on episode 2 and binged the whole thing. I could see why it is beloved. In much the same way I'm sure Hades, Disco Elysium, and Outer Wilds are beloved for a reason. Though out of the three i'll probably play outer wilds last because I enjoy RPGs and games with combat more than just exploring.
@@santaclauseking You can't play in monkey mode, you gotta activate all 14 braincells and pay attention. If you aren't in the mood to do that, there's no game there.
@@santaclauseking Yeah this game is all about exploring and piecing things together to find out more about the story, so if you aren't a fan of that it is understandable why this type of game may not appeal to you.
I literally cried when I finished the game yesterday. It was so.. beautiful. For context: Before that, I hadn’t cried for 10 months
tears were already welling but when i thought i gathered everyone around the campfire at the end and one of them said, "aren't you forgetting someone?" in reference to solanum, it was over. cried my eyes out
All well and good, but we all know the most spiritually enlightening and existentially satisfying game is Dead or Alive: Beach Volleyball.
*Bubsy 3d
6:00 it's because moment to moment gameplay, aka flying the ship or navigating on foot, is really fun and really masterable. so even on their OWN they create a worthwhile experience. just like swinging as spiderman does. flying the ship on its own is like an auto-mini game.
Outer wilds and Neir:A literally have the same final hopeful message that experiencing life is the gift.
*Flower:*
The game Flower had a massive impact on me. Both my grandmothers died in the same week and the grief hadn't hit me yet. I sat down to play Flower and I swear it brute forced me through all of my grief that night. It's very chill and I was able to meditate on my family and my memories while playing. The game really felt like a conduit for my thoughts. I cried and I played all night. As I did things in the game (no spoilers) I felt like I was doing them to myself. Heck, I didn't even finish it. I don't know how it ends. And yet it was one of the greatest videogame experiences I've ever had. I can't recommend it as a form of therapy but it was for me. It's hard for me to even see other people getting as much out of it as I did. But hey, give it a try. Or maybe put it on the back burner until you could use it.
Go in as blind as you can. Not knowing anything other than "Flower" is part of it.
I remember it like it was yesterday.. I was playing Outer wilds a few hours in… and I found myself facing the end.. the music had started and I could see the sun. I looked at it and had.. almost a life changing experience. It was a very strange almost spiritual moment where I thought… you know what? Everything is going to be ok because I’ll reset in a few moments by the campfire. But then something in my mind kind of.. not clicked.. but settled like a warm blanket over my brain that ANYTHING could happen to me, even IRL, and my family and the human race would be ok. ANYTHING could happen to the Earth irl, and the solar system would be OK. The universe would be OK after humanity is gone. Planets, life will form and be meaningful to someone somewhere.
Very surreal and Humbling moment.
Outer Wilds is absolutely a 10/10. My second favorite game of all time, and the first I would recommend to someone if asked.
What's your first?
@@pj1995____ Breath of the Wild. Minecraft is three.
I recently completed Subnautica and I feel like I could apply a lot of the same praise to it as well. Apart from being a solid crafting and survival game, it manages to put its world and ecosystem front-and-center in a way that constantly encourages you to want to learn more and delve deeper.
Never played this game, but the game mechanic of the sun exploding reminds me a lot of the moon crashing into Hyrule in Majora Mask lol.
Majora’s mask is a big inspiration for the games creator
Is there any place I could watch the VoD for his playthrough? Would be very interested in seeing it and having a hard time finding it
Did you ever find a vod? I'm highly interested in this too
@@ahoustonpsych I did not :(
I watched all the livestreams before getting my hands on the game, so I kind of spoiled it for myself. But it was an amazing experience with Vaush and chat.
Loved being in those game streams! wild space shit is always awesome.
I can think of only a few type of players that might not like Outer Wilds.
You aren't good at moving around in a 3D space on 3 axes.
You are easily frustrated at having to repeat tasks or not being able to figure something out.
You don't get a sense of wonder from pondering existentialism, space, the meaning of life or the universe.
If any of these are you, maybe it's not your game and I'm really sorry because you're missing out.
It will not happen during our lifetimes, but it will happen during someone's, some day.
Aw I'm sad now
Most certainly not a human life though.
Jacob Geller has an amazing video on Outer Wilds!
Chat going bonkers when the universe resets is the same energy as THE CLAWWWW from Toy Story and i love it
I tear up at the title screen. That music is too much.
Idk, I generally rate everything based on how much I enjoy it. I really like Roland Barthes' Death of the Author for this, I think the affect of art is much more complicated than "this is what the creator wanted, how well does it do it" and because of this I don't really think analyzing art ignoring this is effective, but I can see the appeal of it. Not sure why I'm writing this, good analysis!
thanks for the recommendation, will def have to check it out 👍
I like Outer Wilds mostly because I got it for free for watching E3 one year on Mixer on my Xbox
what Vaush called "the sublime" is what I felt at the end of Disco Elysium (you know the moment) and the end of the film Another Round.
Thank you 😢
my best friend tried the game for like half an hour but he said the game has bad design because you can't unlock new equipment or skills when you finally get to a new location. it's not rewarding he said
It's funny because you do unlock new skills... knowledge of how the world works
He would have unlocked new skills if he just read the nomai texts lol
I have zero sense of direction so the Outer Wilds was a frustrating experience for me. It's very good though, it's completely a me problem.
Nice video mate 🥂 Outer Wilds is the only game that gave me the same feeling as the first Subnautica game. And OW looks so cute and joyfull, but when it scared me, it took the soul out of me. In some parts it has some intense dread feeling. When I played the first time, i was also playing it with a controler..and I am so noob with a controler. I bashed something and then I end up far far away, with a broken ship, not knowing what to do, in the blackness of space. And then the time loop reset happenedbfor the first time. It litterraly shocked me. And then after 10 secs back at the beginning, in front of the cozy fire. I stood there for 5 min, looking at the monitor, with my brain shut down. And this is nothing, is not a spoiler, is not a super cool scripted event or part of the story, is not even bound to happen to some players. Is just a moment I created by accident. The fear of the unknown is present so much in this game, just like in Subnautica, but in a different way. The only game that makes you feel the vastness of space.
I went into the game totally blind and it was a beautiful experience, very much like Vaush described. It's emotionally gripping in a way few space games are. Elite Dangerous is great and all, but I prefer the smaller more intimate universe of the outer wilds any day.
Outer Wilds world building, exploration, and design with Starfield RPG elements and some combat would be a literally perfect game. Starfield feels like it has zero imagination compared to this. So glad I started playing it tonight, I already can’t stop thinking about it.
I've been hearing a lot of good things about outer wilds, but still haven't played it. Everyone says the game is best enjoyed blind, so I'm trying to decide if I want to play it without spoilers. Sounds a bit like tunic in the way that it's more about uncovering your character's abilities than progressively getting stronger.
If you like open-world RPGs I STRONGLY recommend playing ENDERAL: THE FORGOTTEN STORIES!!
(the Special Edition one would be better)
Vaush actually having a good media take for once? Impossible!
Vaush I have a friend who is annoying me. I feel like if I ever suggest the US do anything good they'll just say "that only works in Scandinavia because they're ethnically homogeneous" I've heard you debunk this before but I can't find it anywhere and they've said it enough times where it's really getting annoying. How am I supposed to respond to that?
I ain't Vaush but I am Canadian and my country is very ethnically diverse. We may not have free college and drugs like Scandanavia but we do have large social safety nets that make living a whole lot easier compared to the US. You guys pay for ambulances, that's unheard of here. Anyway just tell your friend that ethnic homogeneity isn't why the Nordic model works and you're fine. It's that generosity and hospitality is a big part of their culture. What can your friend say, really? There is no excuse for the US to not improve healthcare, infrastructure, education, wages, benefits, etc. Only the greed of the wealthy and the misguided rugged individualism of the oblivious masses.
Trinston was here.
There’s no part of Outer Wilds that feels the slightest bit weak. I can’t think of another game like that.
Brilliantly put, thanks for sharing + uploading!
I noticed your mic quality seems very high! If you don't mind me asking, is there anywhere I can go to see the audio equipment leveraged in your setup?
Basically get a good cardioid mic, a cloud lifter if the mic needs it, and a USB interface. Tweak the settings around to get everything sounding perfect, but that's really all it takes to have good audio.
@@themightymcb7310 Nice. Thank you for the tips!
@@ReavoEnd oh also if you can, treat your room so it influences the sound as little as possible. Audio foam paneling is ideal, but anything that traps frequencies bouncing around helps. Curtains, closets, etc.
Yeah Outer Wilds is a fantastic game
I like Outer Wilds cuz its like Cosmos its the antiLovecraft. "We are insignificant and thats okay." Kinda vibe
The sublime experience of Outer Wilds is very real. I couldn't finish it myself unfortunately cause Dark Bramble gave me anxiety 😕
That pos bush is the scariest shit in the world
I hope you can muster the strength to try again some day. I didn't like having to navigate that place either. I think it will be worth overcoming in the end if that's something you want to do.
@@ryno4ever433 maybe I'll heavily sedate myself for that portion haha if it was almost anything else I think I'd be fine, but I have thalassophobia (and of the creatures therein). I was even good on Giant's Deep once I found out there was nothing IN the water, surprisingly
So beautifully said my friend
Does anyone know where I can watch Vaush's playthrough?
I loved my experience with that game. It was incredibly beautiful
I wish I had done way more reading as a kid, but I painted model horses and stuff, and had a horrible run with puberty and overly conservative surroundings. Yay! lol
One of the best games ever made
That first time i sat on the interloper for the full cycle just to see what happens and then you realise why the sun goes super nova 😳
It doesnt have to do with the interloper though!
@@Infyra does it not? The interloper thats filled with ghost matter goes straight into the sun and then the sun starts going super nova. I know all the stars are going super nova throughout the cycle but i thought that started it?
@@kyleblackburne2870 I think there are several places where you can see the end of the suns natural life cycle (sun station?), I think the interloper going into the sun is because the sun already swells before it explodes.
@@Infyra i thought the sun station doesn’t work and thats why the nomai failed to find the eye of the universe until they were all killed by the ghost matter. The sun explodes millions of years later and then does 9 million cycles , finds the eye of the universe and then stops until we link with the statue and get the information
@@Infyra either way i still haven’t been able to land on the sun station successfully
I just finished playing this game and was excited to see that Vaush had a take on it. That said...I'll confess I don't totally get the rapturous love for the game. Don't get me wrong - I liked it. I thought it was fun. But I didn't feel like the themes really hit me the way they hit other people? I like the sounds of the themes Vaush says he got out of it, and I can kiiinda see them in there, but to me they felt like a very thin icing over what was largely a puzzle game.
Maybe that's partly my fault - there's so many text logs to read, I read them all for the first 2/3 or so of the game but later, and especially when I was worried about running out of time, I'd scan them ASAP so I'd have the important info in my ship bank. I stopped talking to the other characters once I'd finished getting though their dialogue trees too, and their trees weren't that long either, so the other characters were mostly blips against the full playtime of the game, most of which was spent trying to figure out what the game wanted me to do mechanically, which was usually a one-answer-only proposition that got me pretty stuck in a couple places (word to the wise - you can change the frequency of your scanner device manually to find certain kinds of signals).
I found the time loop mechanic to get pretty tedious at times - the initial runup to the ship was fine, but going into a couple places that required some work to get to, scanning everything I could find, then restarting the loop only for my log to tell me "there's more information here!" and need to go through the whole process again got pretty demoralizing. Really would have been nice to be able to access your log at any time, not just from the ship.
Spoilers!!!!
Finally, I found the ending a little disappointing. Everything on the last run up until you get to the endgame was climactic enough, but the ending itself gets into tedious walking simulator territory for me. And it seemed like it wanted me to go "aww, everyone's back together again", but I really didn't feel much for the characters since they had such limited dialogue trees and few reasons to talk to them. I guess it was cute and all, but I certainly wasn't in tears.
So idk. I did enjoy it. But it's not something I'm going to replay or spend a lot of time thinking about.
im about to play for the first time im so excited 😭😭😭
How was it?
i have seen so many of those dime a dozen "what's a game everyone likes but you hate?" reddit threads and, saddeningly, almost all of them have several comments about outer wilds. i don't know what other types of games the people writing those comments enjoy, and maybe i just have a bias from having so much love for this game, but i cannot imagine hating it. it's a perspective i cannot fathom. is it because there's no in game progression meter? is it because the game is mostly quiet and ambient? did these people just listen to podcasts over it and treat it like no man's sky? it's not a very long game, there's really no tedium, and the puzzles are mostly intuitive and satisfying to solve. i feel like a hatred for outer wilds has to come from a fundamental lack of appreciation for video games as an art form
steam summer sale just started and i bought this and disco elysium because of you.
I was on board until he said nier automata was bad with it's philosophical ideas. Did he even get to ending e????? CRINGE. Vaush stay missing on media takes (except outer wilds is 15/10 so is nier replicant and nier automata)
True, also, I don’t even think there were that many hamfisted philosophical speeches… like idk there was the storyline with simone and that philosopher robot but even that wasn’t framed like a “philosophy textbook” but through the experiences and pain of simone. Other than that, are there even any other points in the game where the characters directly talk about abstract philosophy? I haven’t played it in a while, but when I think of the game, I remember things like ending e, 2b’s death and how 9s goes crazy, devola and popola sacrificing themselves, pastel, etc. Sure the game explored philosophical issues but I always felt like it was framed through the actual events of the game rather than something that is shoves down your throat.
@@arseniykorchevskiy1564 Well tbf, the game does kind of give you the takeaway in the ending scene.
But the actual climax of the game, the decision at the end of ending E is completely up to you. It relys on you getting the themes of the story and it does everything it can to emphasize how you don't have to do it.
@@dallascoggins1534 Yeah true, I had forgotten about the cutscene at the very end but I feel like it was completely justified to have that as a reward for making the final choice, and vaush probably didn't even get that far anyway.
I hate nier automata. Its trash, fight me
@@quinnrosenberg3500 Stop commenting. Go find good taste. Come back after you've found good taste.
If nier is trash there is not a single good video game to ever exist.
"I can't think of a demographic that wouldn't enjoy playing these games." Flat Earthers, probably.
So gen Xers.
Vaush is a Minbari confirmed.
"We believe that the Universe itself is conscious in a way we can never truly understand. It is engaged in a search for meaning, so it breaks itself apart, investing its own consciousness in every form of life. We are the Universe, trying to explain itself." --Delenn
If vanish like outer wilds so much based on the concept, he should play death loop. It’s different and it’s flawed but it still gives that loop experience to find your way to the end of the loop.
I play a lot of The Long Dark for the same reasons. Also 10/10, but I'll take I look into Outer Wilds
Not really super relevant other than the fact that this is also an amazing game (and my favorite of all time), but I would highly recommend playing The Witcher 3: The Wild Hunt. I mean it is the quintessential 3rd person action rpg. Not to mention the two dlcs that came out for the game are more in depth than many full games. The combat is challenging and fun, the main story and all the side quests are extremely well written. The different choices you can make, make the game very replay-able. It’s even got a card game called gwent that was so popular they made it into its own game. And just like Vesemir says, “when you fight a beast, knowledge counts as much as your silver sword.
Oh dude I loved Witcher 3. I remember spending my entire winter break playing that game. Then later getting to enjoy two of the most solid content heavy dlc in my life. I would argue Blood and Wine is the best dlc ever (dragon age awakening for me a close second).
I had no idea about anything in Outer Wilds, I thought it was a survival craft game lolol. Imagine my shock when I'm just beep bopping around on the moon when the sun just fucking explodes next to me and I end up back at the start. ._______.
The worst person you know just made a great point
Lol Diablo. Put in 72hrs in S4 and just about burnt out and need a fresh gaming perspective and here I am. Enough pit runs but the progression was fun.
Outer Wilds is what video games were created to be. It couldn't work as any other form of media and takes full advantage of the interactive medium. Anybody who enjoys video games owes it to themselves to play it.
Just finished the game and I'm just taken aback. I wish I could experience it again.
I saw vaush playing this and really wanted to play it. Got a couple hours out of it before they took it off game pass :/ soon I’ll buy the game and the dlc and finally finish it
I love metroidbrainia games. Return of the Obra Din is another good one.
What is the ritual Chat would do when the time loop triggered? I skipped those segments because I planned to play the game myself.

More game reviews please! These are enjoyable! Would love to hear Vaush review Disco Elysium
I love voosh, but hes just wrong about how neir:A makes you think about existence and philosophy. Its a really modern-day approachable way to introduce people into big ideas like the fact we are electric clouds in meat suits.
Maybe im just a fanboi and i like waifus
Is this that one good Media take from Vosh? Love this game!
The sun exploding is absolutely a spoiler. I am 15 minutes into the game and just landed on my first planet. So yeah, you definitely just took that moment away for me.
Love outer wilds and the dlc ♥️♥️♥️
It's a 10/10, both the main and the DLC... How can it be less? Need more planets? Ok, 9,5/10
I will say a lot of the weird cosmic physics shit that happens and the way you experience them kind of spooked me
Super curious what your take on No Man’s Sky is
Alright Alright. Im gonna try it.
If you loved Outer Wilds, try The Forgotten City, as similar a game as I’ve played made by a tiny independent dev team!
I forgor what you said💀
Ok. Thanks vaush for revealing my fear of large cosmic events
You can tell that something is truly special when it can get people who hate each other's guts to have the exact same opinion.
What are other 10/10 games for you?
Reminds me of Zelda Majoras Mask in how frustrating it is to me. Haha. Like finding all the little things and piecing it together and movement mechanics are fun but I really dont enjoy games when I can quit whenever I want and pick right back off. Should add an exit and save feature like kingdom come that deletes once you load it
I mean it only takes like, 5 minutes to get back to even the harder to reach areas once you know how to get there in the first place
@@lizardlegend42 Still, not a big fan of the concept. Add that 5 minutes up over the 50 times I'll launch the game and that's hours wasted of my life. Haha
@@jonny-b4954 it should only take around 15-20 hours really, 30 if you reeeaaaallly struggle
I usually love LoZ games, but I never was able to finish Majora's mask because of the timing, but in outer wilds I never got as frustrated with the loop system.
What a beautiful brain mate !
Made me want to try it out, made my first run, no regret
👍👍
You should play Hardspace: Shipbreaker. It's a sci-fi union simulator.
