Oi, careful with the Outer Wilds spoilers. That game is the last game people should know anything about before playing fpr the first time.
PLAY OUTER WILDS
Okay but like whats the game about? What do you do?
I CAN'T TELL YOU JUST PLAY IT BRO.
But like, how do I know if it's even the type of game I will li-
JUST PLAAAAAAAYYYYY IIITTTTTTTT
Ive seen so many posts by people who trashed the game after not even getting to the start of the time loop, calling it a bad walking sim with nothing to do.
Modern games have programmed people to be incurious and intellectually lazy
I disagree but I'm too intellectually lazy to bother with a well thought out response
I tried outer wilds on gamepass. I went in blind knowing absolutely nothing. At first I thought the graphics made it look like a generic unity indie game. I didn't like how the jumping worked. I was so close to closing the game but I figured "I haven't even gotten past the tutorial. I should at least give it a try."
Oh man. The second you complete the tutorial and you are set free to play I had the best "oh holy shit" moment I've had in years. It's still not everyone's cup of tea but I absolutely loved it. I hope they make a second.
I gave it the honest try myself and just didn't have fun. I went to a couple different planets, died in some weird gravity reversing situation a couple times, died to the loop a few times, etc. It was neat but wasn't for me. I can see how people would get really into it though.
Same. I tried once, bounced off because I just hated how the ship flew. Gave it another honest shot recently, found a couple of the explorers but really wasn't enjoying it. Ended up watching the rest in a Let's Play. Honestly not a bad way to experience it if the gameplay is just not vibing with you.
It's suprising because "ancient progenitor civilization" is one of my favourite tropes in media, but this one really just did not do it for me.
I bought it, tried it for about 30 minutes. And got motion sickness...didn't ever again. :/
I desperately want to play Outer Wilds but that would involve spending money on modern machine
if you ever end up getting a steam deck, outer wilds runs well on it. you won't get 60fps on highest settings or anything but I played through the whole thing with the frame rate limited to 45 and it was a great experience.
You have a console? It's available on most of them (and eventually the switch... probably...)
Yeah just a switch haha. They announced that port a good while ago and not a lot has come of it
We know we aren't an advanced civilization because we don't have a green or blue aesthetic and goat features.
