You don't do it to filter tourists. You do it, because your personality is just super shitty and hateful.

And besides, I seem to be a part of most of the buzzterms. Being mixed black and all. So "mutt" applied to me. "nigger" applies to me.(nigger seems to never go away). "Bix nood" applied to me. "we wuz", "dindus"... It's like, damn, can I catch a break? Now it's just the catch-all "brown". A wide net of hate.

Honestly, I would have delighted in tearing OP a new asshole. But then I enter the thread, and realize the people on my side actually hate me. So fuck it. I guess I'll just meta post and complain. You guys suck the fun out of the air.

Why would a game be shilled years after its release? Use your brain. It already sold millions. They don't need the money. And whatever few extra sales they can trickle in my shilling, isn't going to cover the cost of paying the shills.

Games don't sell on a consistent basis. 90% of their sales are typically within the first few months of release. 99% of their sales within the first couple years. With only some special exceptional games having long term sales.
It's different for a beverage company. You're always going to want a beverage every day. So coca-Cola has a daily chance at getting your sales again for as long as you live.

Honestly, do try to use that brain of yours.

No, I actually quite enjoyed the exploration at first when it was new and there was that sense of wonder, awe, and tension.

It was only after I started doing the same loops over and over for hours tying up all these dozens of loose (dead) ends, retreading the same areas, waiting for tiny timed windows to have a small chance to read a few lore tidbits or solve a pointless puzzle, chasing YET ANOTHER red herring that amounts to absolutely nothing, that I ultimately realized this is just a waste of time and the juice isn't worth the squeeze. I've seen the vast majority of what the game has to offer and the honeymoon period has worn off, now it's just become tired and tedious

The only "pointless" piece of text i can think of is on hollows lantern. Everything else points you in the direction of something else or tells you what's happening. Yes, what is happening is important. Otherwise the ending is absolutely nothing. If you do not care about what is happening, and the ending WAS nothing, the exploration and mystique did not click with you like you are claiming it was

I wouldn't have thought to compare it to Dark Souls but they do have something in common, that you're encouraged to enjoy the atmosphere and take your time.

There is no initial hump. Just explore wherever you want and follow whatever lead interests you. And realize that when you die you're not really being robbed of any progress; progress in Outer Wilds means new knowledge of areas you hadn't been to before, and you keep all of that in your head and in your ship log after dying. Take your time, enjoy the flight controls and the music, and look at the ship computer for hints if you can't figure something out.

It takes the average player 25 hours to beat, not 100%, just the base game, not the DLC, even with occasionally looking things up. And for 100% or DLC or totally blind, it's way longer. And those come from HLTB and gamefaqs so casual players are much longer.

You can see 95% of the game in first 1-2 hours so that's a LOT of fucking padding and tedium and red herrings

I played about maybe 10 hours totally blind before finally dropping it. Saw overwhelming vast majority of the content and would probably have finished in about 5 hours but way too boring and tedious to bother

Source? Me, my three friends, and my little brother all averaged about 10-12 hours to beat, completely blind. I can not fathom needing that long. At least for base game, as you've said.
>And for 100% or DLC or totally blind, it's way longer.
100% is just filling out the log. It adds maybe an hour. DLC is obviously going to extend the playtime. No fucking shit.
>You can see 95% of the game in first 1-2 hours

If a game is well received and liked on /v/, you can bet your ass that either some schizo or a faggy discord will raid the fuck out of this board until the end of time. E33 seems to be the main target currently.

No, I mean completely maxing out all information for most of the planets, the sun station, black hole forge, white hole station, the interloper, Giant's Deep core, quantum moons, etc.

>All of the text points to or explains something
rewording of something I already knew, I don't give a fuck about gay reddit alien is saying

>You just said you enjoyed the exploration
Exploration, not retreading the same fucking area over and over to have a brief timed window to try to solve some stupid puzzle or look for one tiny detail I missed, not knowing if I even have the solution now or if the solution is even here at all

>Give me one example
Just pull up the ship log and you will find several hundred. Just pointless lore flavor text that amount to absolutely nothing.

>You should have almost beaten the game at that point
average completion time (with help) is 25 hours. I've played 10 hours blind. Fuck off retard.

Main story + sides or all styles is the one you want. 100% is 28 hours and that's not even including DLC.

HLTB usually trends lower than the average player because it's backlog zoomers that abuse guides, walkthroughs, and (for retro games) save states/rewind to try to get through games as quickly as possible just to tick a box and go to the next game on their list. Main Story specifically is basically just zoomers rushing through as fast as possible, using guides and whatever else to do the bare minimum to beat it; it's never a particularly useful metric unless you also play like that

Completely contradicts your claim of it being a 25 hour game if you did this in 2 hours.
>rewording of something I already knew
If you knew everything already, you should have beaten the game. Why were you lingering when you knew how to beat the game and desperately wanted to be done?
>Exploration, not retreading the same fucking area over and over to have a brief timed window to try to solve some stupid puzzle
Doesnt happen. If you have to come back you didnt find the area until the end of the loop and thats on you for entering without knowing the state of the sun. It's really not that hard to just look up.
>or look for one tiny detail I missed, not knowing if I even have the solution now or if the solution is even here at all
>Just pull up the ship log
Oh, the ship log with arrows that show you exactly what each piece of information leads to
There are exactly four locations where you need multiple instances of information from multiple places to access, excluding the very end of the game. And those are locations with what you like calling "critical information." And if you need info from other places to get to them....the information you had to gather to get there wasn't pointless, was it?
>I've played 10 hours blind
And that's an hour or two from beating the game. Refer to the first response of this post.
>Baseless strawman. I said no such thing.
You implied it when you said you had figured everything out in an hour or two, when this is a knowledge-based game that takes about 12 hours to complete. You must be pretty god damn smart if you can piece absolutely everything together so quick

>it's never a particularly useful metric unless you also play like that
main story is actually the only metric that matters and makes sense on HLTB
main+sides is up to user to decide, i have no idea what the fuck each player considers SIDES, especially in outer wilds. maybe some retard wasted 5 hours trying to land on sun station and considers that a side thing while it has no meaning outside of the achievement
and what is completionist? is it all achievements? or is it actually 100%ing the game? i'd wager it's the former
well, at least in case of OW those are the same, but that's not what we're talking about here

>Completely contradicts your claim of it being a 25 hour game if you did this in 2 hours.
Can you read?? 25 hours is around the average completion time for gamefaqs/HLTB. That's with guides, base game only, not even 100%.

>Doesnt happen.
Tons of bullshit in the game is time gated. Sand falling, sand rising, brittle hollow crumbling, interloper passing sun, Giant's Deep islands rising, etc. Not to mention there are tons of long routes with multiple branches that you are trying to thoroughly explore while you have very limited time, so you have to constantly retread that route if you run out of time, die, can't solve a puzzle, etc. It's extremely fucking tedious, especially since you aren't even sure if there is anything else there, or if you can solve the puzzle at the time, or if there is some bullshit halfway across the galaxy that you need first, all to amount to... just another fucking bit of flavor text

As I already said, 95% is pointless flavor text, 4% is information (much of which you can just figure out yourself without) and 1% is critical path.


>You implied it when you said you had figured everything out in an hour or two,
No, you fucking illiterate moron, I said you get the gist of the plot and see the overwhelming vast majority of the planets in the first few hours, and then the remaining time is just a dozen+ hours of retreading mostly the same shit over and over with an occasional lore tidbit here or there until you finally reach the critical path instead of gay flavor text

You are so fucking stupid, these are generic terms HLTB uses, main story means rushing the critical path and for games like these, those players are absolutely looking shit up all the time and rushing through the game. All styles or main+sides is how the average player with the average experience is playing the game.

100% I would imagine is all ship logs, but again it's just a generic term meaning you saw all or almost all of the game.

Gamefaqs just uses generic "length" and has it at about 25 hours average across all the versions.

again that 25 hours is not including DLC nor does it mean 100%, and the average player is looking shit up occasionally in puzzle games.

So yes, that is a fucking LOT of tedium and repetition and bloat. You get the best experience in the first few hours when things are fresh and mysterious, then you just drop the game and move on unless you are just absolutely riveted with the goings-on of gay reddit space aliens and love repeating the same fucking areas over and over again to hear about what your gay reddit alien buddy did.

No, I just said I followed it and it led to absolutely nothing, despite being literally the only discerning feature in an endless sea of foggy copy-pasted room. But that's typical for Outer Wilds to waste your time like that.

Could have at least had the decency to give me a ship log though so I don't think I'm missing something.

here's a 30 year old game, a beat em up where you go from left to right and punch people. it has no side quests, no unlockables, no achievements. so here's the big question: why are the numbers different?

Again, it's a generic term, Main Story means rushing through the game/critical path, Main Story+Extra/All Styles is just the average experience.

Also those numbers are bullshit honestly, even the 3.5 hours is way too low if zoomers are actually claiming to beat the game with the limited continues legitimately from their first time playing. So they are also probably just spamming save states or giving themselves a bunch of extra lives in the options. Zoomers fucking suck ass at these games and feel like these games have aged poorly and save states are a necessity to properly enjoy them. Similar to how they use guides and walkthroughs for puzzle games at the slightest inconvenience.

For example, gamefaqs (with actual old school gamers that play these games legitimately), they have Streets of Rage 2 length at 10 hours which is much more realistic, that's about how long my 1CC took.

Don't need to. I have watched full playthroughs. My account has four full game playthroughs (12+12+12+12) two full DLC playthroughs (48+10+10) one half DLC playthrough since I had to go back and restart the DLC after a break (68+5) and the rest of it was achievement hunts for both base game and dlc, with a bit of fucking with the physics and playing with the nomai shuttle. As for my friends, one accidentally flew to the DLC and played around for an hour before realizing it and stopping, and the other only played half of the dlc (5 hours). It does not take 25 full hours.
>Can you read??
Do you even know what you're saying? You told me that you see 95% of everything in 1-2 hours. You then elaborated to say that everything is literally everything in the ship log. That would imply that you have read 95% of the dialog in the game in 1-2 hours. If this were true (it isnt) you could beat the game in the next 30-60 minutes. It does not take 23 hours to piece together how to get to that last 5%.
>Tons of bullshit in the game is time gated. Sand falling, sand rising, brittle hollow crumbling, interloper passing sun, Giant's Deep islands rising, etc.
Yes, the galaxy is alive, and it doesnt take long to realize exactly how each of those individual things work. You can even sit at a campfire if you need to wait until a certain time. Most of the time all you have to do is show up at the beginning of the loop.
>Not to mention there are tons of long routes with multiple branches that you are trying to thoroughly explore while you have very limited time
Only the sunless city.
>it's extremely fucking tedious, especially since you aren't even sure if there is anything else there, or if you can solve the puzzle at the time
It's pretty obvious when you're too late and ET is full of sand or BH has fallen apart.

see, your keep doubling down with your posts and you make less sense each time. just arguing for the sake of arguing.
now we've arrived the ridiculous conclusion of SoR2 of being a 10 hour game because it fits your arbitrary criteria of 1CC. meanwhile it's just an average of wildly different times since gamefaqs doesn't even have any categories. someone blasted through it on normal while others 1CC'd every char on mania.
same with main+sides of outer wilds - the methodology is flawed and should be specific to each game

10 hours is the average experience on original hardware.

3 hours is the average experience if you're a zoomer retard spamming save states on your emulator.

That was the whole point. Outer Wilds is about 25 hours for an average experience (not 100%, no DLC, occasionally looking things up). That's way, WAY too long with how little there is to do and see on the planets.

LMAO shut the fuck up clown. You are an embarrassment.

Your little fucking anecdotes are NOT. RELEVANT. Surveys of thousands of users shows the game to be about 25 hours for an average playthrough (no DLC, not 100%, looking up help occasionally), which is WAY too fucking long for how little the game has going on. It's just constant repetitive tedium and dead plot threads for a bit of flavor text.

If you actually played the game yourself, you'd know it doesn't take 25 hours. It certainly doesn't take 111 hours, and you know that even without playing it. Harping on my playtime, REGARDLESS of whether or not it actually took that long to beat base game, does nothing for your case, and kicking and screaming like a literal child when presented with an argument just makes you look like a child. I'm sure you're getting your rocks off making "the other side" seethe or what the fuck ever, but we're only continuing to interact with you because we're making fun of you, and you're only robbing yourself by defaulting on disliking a game just because you see it as "leddit" or "zoomer" or whatever your next big boogeyman is.

It was the one tied to the Escape Pod on Ember Twin - the log wonโ€™t trigger unless you read the emergency transmission node first before doing the pod walk sequence. I did the whole path backwards on my first few loops and wondered why the ship log never updated. Felt like a proper Nomai after finally getting it all synced up.

There's about 3 or 4 lines out of the entirety of the hundreds of pages of written dialog in the game that come off like California Redditors; The same 3-4 lines that tend to be repeated by Redditors aptly enough. But stop pretending like game is Reddit tier writing. A Redditor makes their entire personality out of quirky chungus one liners. The "Science compels us to blow up the sun!" line that is frequently quoted is meant to set you up to feel the devastation of the truth behind the sun station. You're supposed to read it and hate that character, and you're supposed to look back on it when you learn about the truth behind the sun station with remorse that even though he was annoying that he was still trying his best and failed, and he and all the others died for it.

There are plenty of lessons that Outer Wilds teaches that diametrically oppose the typical pseud Reddit faggot. The importance of faith is a big one, which I'm sure is another thing that flies over their (and your) heads.
