No it didnt. There's nothing in this game that would alter how somebody views they're own life or the world.
Are there seriously redditors dumb enough that merely experiencing something beautiful and emotionally resonant will cause them to change their job or whatever?

It's the ultimate exploration/detective/whodunnit game.
You are sent out on your way to explore the universe and slowly you're collecting clues of a precursor species and who they were, what they were trying to do and what happened to them. All the planets are hand made in order to be interesting rather than procedural slob.

It's fun to explore and figure things out. If you get into it, it gets very immersive. You don't actually unlock anything new at any point, you just gain knowledge. So you don't need a special key to use a certain device to get to some place, you just don't know how to use it yet, so you have to look elsewhere to figure it out, and as you do that you find other things you need to figure and it goes on like that across several planets with pretty unique and creative conditions that I haven't experienced in any other game.

I would recommend avoiding spoilers because that literally ruins the point of the game. It's not even replayable because when you have all the knowledge you can beat the game in like 15 minutes.

>>713974114
It's not life changing, posts like that are 1% from reddit and 99% sour pissheads on /v/ who will shit on anything that's gained a lot of popularity.

I'm also curious what games you've seen with that description. There is nothing that's quite like Outer Wilds. The closest would be point and click mystery games like Myst or deduction games like Obra Dinn or Golden Idol, but they don't have the 3D phsyics based interactivity and challenges that OW has, either to marvel at or be freaked out by, and that's a huge part of what makes the game as fun and unique as it is.

It's a 22 minute loop that you play over and over again until you solve the puzzle. No hand holding, no bullshit mechanics, the story is very charming and integrates perfectly into the actual puzzle.
You're trying to stop a super nova and to do it you have to visit a specific planet, take a specific path, avoid dangerous obstacles, then enter a specific code. Basically you play through 20 hours just to know what the fuck you're doing and why you're doing it. The game is incredibly competent and it never feels unfair or too easy. The DLC also adds horror which I wasn't very keen on until I actually played it and it's also done perfectly. Just all around perfect execution for this type of video game.

Forgetting the "life changing" claim by OP - it's just a great game. There's nothing really like it out there. No other game has so many, and so well executed, "aha!" moments when you finally figure something out that had been hidden in plain sight. And the story, while kinda simple, is a nice one with a message that just stuck with a lot of people. And the reason I think the game gets a lot of push back on 4chan is because it's also enjoyed by people over on Reddit. Andv some 4chan anons can't stand being aligned with Reddit about anything.

one of the few jank moments tbf
at that point I had most of the game figured out and I thought the jellyfish clue was fairly obvious but I died once to their electricity and went "huh" followed by 30 minutes of banging my head against the wall
precision platforming? flying? swimming? out of no where really caught me off guard
I also completely gave up on the sun station platforming that shit was rough

From my experience it was more straightforward.
I see the jellyfish go up and down, knew I get electrocuted getting near its head directly so I figured I should try entering the jellyfish from the very bottom of its tentacles.

The last time I played the game, the jellyfish shit is precisely what I was focused on figuring out. The ones in the depths of Giant's Deep never seem to come outside the barrier of water currents, even with all the storms on the planet that keep lifting the floating islets into the stratosphere, so I can't exactly 'enter the jellyfish' to get into Giant's Deep's core, which seems like an important enough place to visit. But I also don't have any other leads on how to get there besides something to do with the jellyfish. Time to waste another five hours just dicking around and observing all the stuff that happens on Giant's Deep during the timeloop, I guess.

On an unrelated note, I don't really get the point of all the 'far-seeing' spots where you place a slab on a pillar and get to see into some room elsewhere in the world. There never seems to be any important info you can glean from just seeing a place without being able to interact with anything in there, and if you haven't visited that room yet you don't really have any context on where it could be located either.

It's a point and click adventure for retards, with very basic theming even a baby can follow.

Essentially, it's a puzzle game for guys who cannot fathom the idea of taking notes. The basic game loop is as follows: Try and go somewhere, fail because you're missing a pre-requisite knowledge check. Work out how to go somewhere, learn another hint for how to go somewhere else. You follow the trail of breadcrumbs until the eventual ending, which is shitty.

It has changed my gaming taste and habits. I genuinely believe it's a paradigm shift, still wildly under-studied and under-understood, a stroke of genius that is decades ahead of the industry. An absolute masterclass in game design, and the kind of media experience you're lucky to perhaps see once in a decade or a few times in your lifetime. It hit me like nothing else. It brought me joy, with such an intensity, like no other piece of media. It's been very hard for me to go back to other games after experiencing it and realizing nothing will match that high until a very long time. The only other game to have that effect on me was Dark Souls 1 years ago.

La-Mulana expects basic technical skill, so you can't expect OW fans to get through it. The better comparison is Void Stranger, which requires no mechanical execution because it's turn based, but has actual puzzles to solve that go beyond "get told to do thing, do thing".

Watching streamers play the game is pure fucking suffering.
>streamer keeps their camera pointed towards the floor, barely looks around where they are
>instructions that are always present are never read; camera mode is discovered only after their chat tells them about it
>starts game, skips all dialogue, doesn't know what to do (then restarts their playthrough because their uploaded vod got ratio'd)
>reads text out loud without truly reading (and understanding) it
>two loops in they sit still and asks chat what they should do next
>doesn't ask questions, doesn't form hypotheses, just goes where the game tells them to go and inevitably gets stuck
>solves puzzles by accident; discovers a glitch that allows them to skip vital parts of the game
>explores places a single time, manages to overlook everything important and never goes back because "they've already been there"
>confuses stellar objects for each other despite the game literally telling them what they are
>doesn't realize what happens during the ending
>closes the game during the credits

The game just seems to be a lot of zoomers' first encounter with existential dread.
And to be fair, where else is this generation supposed to encounter it? Society as a whole currently has different priorities than pondering stuff like the heat death of the universe and the fate of humanity.

The game relies on you not knowing.
If you know, be it from spoilers or from even completing the game yourself, it no longer functions.
You have, one shot, one ride. Take it or leave it, but you are 100% retarded if you spoil it for yourself and don't take the intended journey made for you to experience only once.

A whole star system, physically simulated, all for your taking. Why are the planets so close together? Gravitational force simulation, baby, not because of a pre-programmed trajectory.
Sound design is also very non-apologetic. You ever stood under a waterfall? Deafening, right? The same happens in Outer Wilds. In so many AAA modern games, audio are auto-ducked to avoid discomfort, none of that here, as it should be. The sense of environmental rumbles are also great.

didn't say I need to convince him. My point was that getting spoiled in this game is the biggest sin.
outer wilds is an excellent video game, an experience one can have through a video game.
To me, it exemplifies the peak of video games and the experiences they usher to people, relative to other mediums.

I liked it, the exploration was unlike any other video game. But I was disappointed by the ending, I don't really know what I was expecting but it just felt so empty. I think it might be because of the lack of meaningful interactions with the other characters in the game. Like, what's the point of the universe dying if I haven't grown to care about anything in it?

While I absolutely get why you'd feel that way, you not making more meaningful connections is arguably your fault. If you visit the other astronauts in regular intervals they unlock new dialogue and joke around with you etc.
You can argue that the fact that this entire system is optional is a fault in itself, but I think making it more overt or forced would take away from the charm and meta narrative about connecting with others and shared experiences.

I played through the whole game without needing to resort to a walkthrough until the very last section where I couldn't figure out how to get into the room inside the one planet. Except actually I did know how to get inside and the only reason it wasn't working was because I had to run into the fucking sand stream instead of standing on the platform like every other warp. The only "clue" that hints at having to do this is so vague that I'd be surprised if anyone figured it out without spending countless hours playing the game like a paranoid schizophrenic. I'm still mad about it.

I'd argue that having just a couple more lines of dialogue isn't going to magically make me care about a character. And yes, I did check up on them fairly often when I was stuck to see if they had any hints or something to help me on my way.

This is the one thing that is keeping this game from being great in my eyes. I almost felt like it was insulting meeting up with all the astronauts in the ending like they were my best buds when the game only gives me like 10 dialogue options per character and expects me to care about them? I'm not saying I have a perfect solution that fits with the rest of the game, but a more fleshed out character story and development definitely could've made this game an absolute masterpiece. Like some sort of side quest for each astronaut or something, idk.

You learn to empathize with dead people through writing, and through living members of your species who are unaware of the loop, as well as some who do. And your actions aren't just deterministic universe reset. It's not really that central to the plot or the feel of the game but depending on some of your choices you DO change some outcome in the ending, albeit very minor.

I agree that accidental sequence breaking can ruin immersion in this game and it kinda sours the experience and the sense of scale a bit. But what you're talking about is barely that, it's like saying "guys I ran into bramble end game area in the first 5 minutes wtf this game is a joke". Unless you know a very specific sequence of events you're only slightly less clueless going into the ash twin room than before.

you won't be able to get to the endgame by "accidentally" doing it. The whole process of getting to the endgame requires more than looking up unless you also read about it on the wiki or something, in which case, you played nothing but yourself.

You could stumble into the Ash Twin Project by accident and take the core without knowing what it all means

It was a pretty good game and did some interesting things. I'm glad I played it but I don't think it deserves the immense hype it gets.

I still don't understand how so many people got filtered by that part specifically. The complete lack of investigative curiosity? How did so many players forget about their one tool gadget? And unless you played some early version, they even added an alcove to make it more obvious.

Than you're fucked obviously, but I just meant to explain that it's possible to stumble into the end game.

K, maybe one toe in the end game, so I was wrong for implying it wasn't. Just put it back, then. Or reload a save, start a new game, whatever.

Dog shit game. I accidentally ran into the Ash Twin warp at exactly 7 minutes and 50 seconds then looked up and stumbled into the Ash Twin project then I ran the loop and grabbed the core, accidentally flew into dark bramble, breezed through the angler fish (didn't even touch my controller smfh) and then got to this old looking ship and accidentally entered a random sequence of code that got me to this weird purple alien thing. This whole "game" took me 20 minutes and I already got my refund. Is this really someone's favorite game? Y'all taste is ass.

Given that there are 944,076,141 possible combinations that's pretty impressive. You should have bought a lottery ticket instead.

I'm so glad I got this weird thing where I can "artificially forget" things (don't really know how to describe it). I still get such joy playing games like Outer Wilds and Obra Dinn as if it's the first time.

When you were given the information regarding the Outer Wilds Ventures astronauts who had flown before you, how did you feel?

I was looking for a game similar to no man sky (space, exploration and base building) and I found this one. When I started playing it I was ready to refund after 5 minutes but I thought I will give it a try, I have 2 hours for it after all. I didn't know that I'm playing the only objectively 10/10 game every made.
