Games with timers that run out and go kaput and throw you back at spawn or whatever are unequivocally my least favorite kinds of games because they fill me with anxiety so I am pretty surprised I ended up liking outer wilds This much

#to be fair it was never hugely urgent #at worst it was usually just an inconvenience #wasnt until the end with that final stretch that it actually mattered #and getting the warp core taking it into the ship flying through dark bramble and navigating through that awful area with the #three anglerfish was horrible #but also idk i think it was implemented very well #like it makes sense #and that music really added to the urgency lol #it only took me two tries and the first time the loop reset exactly at the moment i made it in the vessel sadge #but it wasnt the type of thing that ruins it and make me want to throw in the towel #anyway #i am so glad the dlc isnt some kind of sequel #bc the game does not need a sequel. i think a sequel would ruin it #a prequel would be cool though. like a game specifically set around the nomai and their journey to this star system and in #trying to find the eye of the universe #which would be unbearably tragic #i cant get over them as a whole #starting the game more or less very indifferent to the nomai as a whole apart from curiosity on how they vanished #which very quickly turned into sadness that grew exponentially as a i found more text and logs from them #like they all had their little quirks. they had personalities that shined through even in their written conversations #i can only imagine how much more impactful it would be playing through those events as a nomai #idk man im going through the five stages of grief simultaneously i have too many thoughts to not vomit them out 😭#outer wilds #miles rambles
