I’m still plugging away at Outer Wilds so I can’t fully commit to this watch yet but I believe in the power of Logheads and can not wait to see what you’ve cooked here ❤
I was playing Death Stranding while working by day in a grocery store warehouse. I noticed a month or two into the plague my life barely changed. Then I started playing Death Stranding and BOY does that game hit different while playing it on lockdown by night working by day and having to deal with the recent deaths of multiple while not close friends or reletives still people that I had known fairly well before the plague and all due to non plague things. I don't think I can ever replay DT again just cause it's so big and the special thing was playing it in the apocalypse finding connections and trying to form new ones in this new world I now see is slipping into fascism. connections with others is how we will survive.
Good point! I think the narrative ends on a similar note regardless, like if the extinction event had been completely averted, there isn’t much that would be different about the tone and events of the ending
This was a beautiful video.
Im really delighted you enjoyed it! Thanks so much!
Fantastic video as always my friend 🫶
Thanks a tonne!

I fully condone this approach, in fact I’d even call it rather based (thank you!)
I'm a simple guy, I hear "outer wilds" and I go into a frenzy. Great video as always
“Be talking about Outer Wilds” makes up my entire hierarchy of needs so I’m very glad you enjoyed me indulging in that!

Beautifully said - those connections are all we’ve got, when it comes down to it
As someone who knows shit all of games, your point on death stranding and the pandemic had me 😮
Very glad it had the intended effect 🫡
Amazing video. The outer wilds segment had me shedding tears
I’m so delighted you enjoyed it, that’s made my day!

@@LostFutures1 oh same, one of the most unforgivable single pieces of writing of the past 50 years I’d say
Just one thing. The disaster of Death Stranding isn't stopped, its DELAYED.
It already started, inevitable.

@@BacklogReviewer I agree, it feels less "existential dread" than the Outer Wilds ending.
@@WheatDos for sure! I think Outer Wilds’ joy in the face of that dread is what’s stuck with me in the years since I played it
