outer wilds is such an amazing game that is so hard to convince people to play because like
the entire game is based around how much you know about the game. the best way to play the game is to know absolutely nothing
#if you play it please do not look up anything about it!!!!#it's fucking GORGEOUS#it is a space puzzle game#where knowledge is based on progression#srsly it's designed such that anyone could beat the entire game fresh file in like <20 minutes. but you don't know how#and what's mindboggling about it is#it's pretty easy!!! for someone like me who is not very good with video games!! especially on controller!!!#it's funny it's heartbreaking it's literally one of my top games of all time now#storyline tier is up there with portal hades and celeste as far as OUGGHGHGHGGHH#also#it has nonbinary aliens!!!#please play it#the graphics are also astounding if your computer can handle them#and the physics is an awesome blend of accurate and inaccurate-enough-to-be-good-for-gameplay#it's just#there have been so many moments i'm sitting there in slightly stunned silence when i come across something#in the story that just... makes me go 'oh' and have an entire overwhelming Feeling#and the game gives you that space to understand#to grieve and to feel#god i also recommend getting the dlc#if only for the Moment you have when you realize#'it was there the WHOLE FUCKING TIME I WAS PLAYING THE MAIN GAME? AND I JUST DIDNT SEE IT UNTIL NOW? WHAT THE FUCK?'#when the game directs you to it#anyway it's been weeks and i'm still not over a note in brittle hollow#like holy shit it was already heartbreaking to read 'i hope you're okay' BUT THEN TO THINK BACK TO THE NAME TAGS AND REALIZE#THE ABSENCE OF A SIGNATURE...
