troony game
This
not an argument
Doubt it will happen OP, it's a miracle this thing came out after who knows how many years in development.
All good art is created by people fricked in the head.
and? they make good games anon
rent free
Probably not until Alex Beacham makes another game.
Starfield.
ruined orgasm, the game
it's fricking amazing from start to end, until the actual ending shows up
what a fricking disappointment
you're mentally deficient if you think that the ending is bad.
What were you expecting, anon?
What did you think was going to happen at the Eye?
I expected a big bang, which ended up happening
but everything else was massive cheap cringe
explain why it's good
something bland like "this is the eye of the universe and this is going to happen" would be a better ending
a common theme regarding space in most media is its endlessness. it's empty, apathetic, prone to coincidence, it's without much intention. space is void of purposefulness, and this fact is commonly emphasized in most fiction about space.
same in outer wilds. we read endless nomai tablets pondering the nature of the universe, why are things the way they are, is all of this just happenstance, and so on. the nomai are snuffed out by a freak accident, a coincidence that could only be born of an uncaring universe. throuhgout our galaxy lies the remains of the most well meaning and curious goat alien people. their only sin was abandoning the rest of their flock when they got a sniff of the eye's signal. who could blame them? the mystery of the universe was hiding in that signal.
so when you get to the eye of the universe and see its starkly all-black climate, it's foreboding thunderous skies, the weird cubic shapes jutting out of the ground, you think to yourself "this looks a fair bit more ominous than the other planets. this can't be good." you jump into the maelstrom not really knowing what to expect, because the game hasn't given you any hints about whether the truth is either malicious or good. you're going in with the assumption that maybe it's just the end of all things, which we humans interpret as malicious.
what we find instead is that the eye of the universe gives our character a vision resembling their home planet, surrounds them with their friends, and gives them a chance to rebirth the universe should they choose to accept it. it's not an end. it's a new beginning. such a thing is maybe trite and expected in retrospect, but there was no guarantee of that. there was no guarantee of a new universe with life. there was no guarantee that the big bang would have triumphant music or such neat imagery with the stars exploding/trees popping up representing new life
the success is that it's a happy ending when it didn't need to be. that's why it's good.
yeah, I understand
but the way it was made it's what I didn't like
>lightbulb sounds
>your "friends" talking fricking nonsense
>nothing else about the eye
and all that stuff
it felt like someone else wrote that part instead of the main writter
Your friends are talking about the end of the universe and their own lives. I don't really know what exactly you needed to hear about the eye? Solanum pretty much spells it out for you.
>Your friends are talking about the end of the universe and their own lives.
it feels like they're your own memories of them, or a quantum version of them, since suddenly they know more than you, somehow
and yet, they talk generic uninteresting shit
every other dialogue/text from the game feels better and it's like they didn't care about this last part
>I don't really know what exactly you needed to hear about the eye?
what does she say about the eye? because I only remember something like "I'll tell you everything" and tells nothing
yeah it's obvious the eye is older than the universe and it's the reason behind the big bang, but I think I expected anything else after all the game going behind it
>I'd advise you to take a break from twitter and Ganker btw. It would probably do good.
this
>I expected anything else
any more talking about it I mean
>“I believe we’ve reached the end of our journey. All that remains is to collapse the innumerable possibilities before us. Are you ready to learn what comes next?”
>It’s tempting to linger in this moment, while every possibility still exists. But unless they are collapsed by an observer, they will never be more than possibilities.”
The universe is in a quantum state of infinite possibility but can't be made real and solid until observed by the player.
>it feels like they're your own memories of them, or a quantum version of them
Which makes sense considering the eye is forming a new universe based on your understanding and memories.
Take it as the eye digging through your mind like it were a dream.
brainlet
what does ruined orgasm mean?
I think it's some porn watcher meme where they cum and it cuts to the guy's balls and butthole from behind.
At least that's what I hope it is.
Outer Wilds is the ultimate NPC test. npcs do not have the curiosity drive that makes them want to explore and discover things of their own volition. There are no immediate dopamine rewards that most games have, like cosmetics, unlocks, and leveling up. You play because you want to explore and uncover the mystery, NPCs are physically incapable of doing this.
literally me
I don't understand how people don't want to explore every nook and cranny in this game as soon as they get the signalscope and point it upwards for the first time. It's like that
>see that mountain? you can go there
Except now it's real and you do eventually go in every single place you've heard mentioned in the game.
This board is full of people who lack critical thinking and curiosity so it's no surprise to see so many haters here
Obra Dinn maybe? I heard it was good but I haven't played it myself.
Obra Dinn is a great game but it's a deduction game after all, it's nothing similar to Outer Wilds expect they are both in first person
when you make it
Midwit-core. It's "I FRICKING LOVE SCIENCE" the game.
I'd rather just play an actually smart game like SpaceChem or Factorio.
pretentious pseud
You'd be filtered within the first half hour of any Zachtronics game. Don't respond again. I *am* better than you and the rest of this game's redditor fanbase.
Guaranteed you have no idea what the game is actually about. Please stay in your autism corner, games like this are quite literally too cerebral for a head puncher like you to enjoy.
I often say this without really meaning it but I think this time you didn't actually play the game despite your strong opinions of it.
I did. I was promised a game with amazing puzzles and discovery and got nothing. It's telling that this game's fanbase gets filtered by something as trivial as the fricking jellyfish """""puzzle"""". Yeah man, getting into the Ash Twin Project is so fricking hard bro. I have to stand in place and avoid sand. Truly a cerebral experience.
I'm sorry the game simply wasn't up to the standard of your staggering intelligence, maybe you could enlighten us all with a game that has REAL puzzles and discoveries
baba is you unironically
Baba is shit unironically
All you do in the game is push words. troony game.
But SpaceChem and Factorio ARE midwit-core.
Play a real space sim game like Children of a Dead Earth.
I just looked this up after thinking it was an open world roguelike since it came out. Looka awesome.
Its one of the best video game experiences I have had in recent memory. The exploration, mystery, storytelling are all top notch. If you're at all interested in playing the game get out of this thread for the love of god. Spoilers will absolutely ruin the whole thing for you.
Infrequent warning: This game is garbage and these threads are made by a bot or dedicated shill. You have been warned.
i'm playing return of the obra dinn atm, it's good but its not the same
The game is decent, but you shills are extremely annoying. Please, just shut the frick up about OW and stop acting like redditgays.
>journal entries
Wow amazing storytelling guys
It's pure tripe.
As someone who has finished the game, i can say 100% that this game is full of pretentious quirky dialogue and the shills here are pretentious homosexuals that should go back.
What are some examples of the pretentious quirky dialogue?
post examples of this pretentious quirky dialogue.
also, please elaborate how you played this game to completion and the primary thing you remember about it is some dialogue you didn't like.
all the shitty nomai jokes.
That's not dialogue. And it serves to illustrate that although the Nomai were huge fricking nerds, they were a playful race that valued social ties.
it was reddit tier humor
Elaborate.
What specifically makes it "reddit"?
explicit need to engage in word play in any given situation
But they don't do it any given situation. For example when they talk about the friends they've lost.
>elaborate how you played this game to completion and the primary thing you remember about it is some dialogue you didn't like
>"Explain how in a game that is almost entirely about reading dialogue the primary thing you remember is the dialogue"
People who actually played the game don't really talk about the dialogue at all.
More often than not people are talking about how cool it felt to solve this puzzle and to discover that thing and what they felt upon hearing this song and then making fun of owlkeks.
is this another anon who mistook outer worlds with outer wilds?
who would ever complain about dialogue in outer wilds? every single bit of dialogue i remember is purely expositional and a clue for you to move forward.
It's a bit weird that the lizard people somehow went through enough gender studies to make everyone's pronouns they/them but their translation software spits out normal genders for the long dead aliens
But that's pretty much the only complaint I have about the game
>being moronic
>gender studies
>pronouns
They were a single sex species, anon.
Also, they weren't speaking English. That's just the game translating their language to you, the player, because you don't speak Hearthian, and unlike some other human languages English doesn't have another genderless pronoun except for "they/them". Hearthians could very well not have gendered pronouns at all.
I'd advise you to take a break from twitter and Ganker btw. It would probably do good.
If you play the game in Turkish then there's no gendered third-person pronouns in the game.
>dark bramble is literally traveling in a straight line
it's not even a walking simulator
it's worse than that. it's a floating simulator
The unfortunate byproduct of these types of experiences is they are wholly distinct and therefore can never be recreated, much less re-experienced the first time again.
Just be warned this game is a walking simulator. If that is fine with you, give it a shot. But you literally just walk around and read journals that troony aliens left laying around, that's the entire game.
Any game you don't like can be a walking simulator. Feels good to oversimplify something to make people who like it idiots. People call Death Stranding a walking simulator too, but hey I can call Metal Gear Solid a cutscene watching simulator.
There's nothing wrong with walking simulators.
This genre gets unwarranted amount of hate for no reason whatsoever.
>The absolute state of OWgays...
Name one thing wrong with walking simulators.
"I don't like them" is not one.
You might not like racing games either but you wont ever go into a Forza thread to shit on racing games.
Were you raped by walking sims or what?
>no answer
knew it
There's no subsistence to the gameplay. Literally every other genre offers something unique and interesting. Sure someone might not like a racing or strategy game but the genre has redeeming qualities.Walking simulators are devoid of any benefits, inb4 hurr durr da storee as if a game with good gameplay can't have a good story. There is absolutely no reason to choose a walking simulator over any other genre.
why do people play them then?
also, why do you care? you can very well just ignore them.
Because they're brainlets. Why do people smoke crack? Negative things can still be enjoyed by morons. That doesn't make it okay.
Game could have used less reddit, and homosexualry in general, and more grittiness to be honest. I could have done without the mono gender aliens, and the cheap post movie credit style party at The Eye.
Definitely. At the half way point I was really wishing the game played in third person and I could at least shoot at some aliens or something. They could've even added chest high cover throughout the game to use. A love interest (femal of course) and seeing our character's bald head also would've gone a long way to letting us make an emotional connection. Its ok though because in my headcannon they/them were a veteran space marine who was tired of fighting and decided to live a life of exploration instead.
also I'm a troony
A new folksy indieshit walking sim comes out every week.
weird how nobody ever shares cool moments or aspects of the game they like
im sure its just a coincidence though
half of it is spoilers and the rest has been discussed to death 3 years ago
what do insane shizos like you even want?
and if you don't believe that, just hit up some archive website
>Makes threads about a game that has been discussed to death 3 years ago
>Says the people annoyed by the shilling are the "schizos"
Sorry, I forgot that it was a rule here that you can't talk about games unless it is marketing for pre-orders or shitposting bait
What is there to talk about with this game? 75% of the thread is lowkey not even discussing OW in particular. Nice fanbase.
You absolute homosexual, we're 60 posts in and you haven't talked about the game a single time. All you've done is argue against other anons that are annoyed by the shilling.
That is the true reason why you make these threads, to shitpost like a homosexual. If you actually wanted to talk about the game, you would've ignored us and done so already.
>no replies after this post
Pffffhahahahahahahahaha OWShills btfo
poor little thing, all out of (You)'s
here you go little buddy
>complaining about complaining about complaining
Looks like you are feeling left out.
Now it's actually getting kind of funny.
>Doesn't ignore me to talk about the game, and instead, does the exact thing i'm shitting on you for
Way to prove me right.
Isn't Ganker the same place that says cyberbullying isn't real and you should just press the mute button? We have the same thing, except it's called the "hide" button. But of course, if you hid the posts shitting on these threads, your thread would get 404'd from lack of replies.
I don't want to discuss this 3 year old game i've already talked about here when it launched. I'm just here to expose you shills, that is my only duty.
Thanks for the dopamine rush of being proven absolutely right. I'm open for more.
Yes, I can really tell that this anon was spot on
At this moment I am euphoric, not because I am shilling a game that I love for free, but because it makes morons seethe so much that they have to anti-shill it for free.
On god senpai I am hunnid filled with euphoria I'm finna boutta give you this (You) just for making my afternoon this bussin fr fr.
Oh man. Imagine actually deluding yourself into believing that you have a "duty" to expose hidden marketeers that are somehow still getting paid 3 years later.
What an absolutely cursed existence.
>anybody talking about a game they enjoy is a shill
Youre a fricking man child lmao
These threads are literally completely fine until you autists arrive. Derailing gay
>moron enters thread and begins shidding and farding all over it
>moron-kun you should leave and go somewere else
>Hurrr no u want me here y else wood u talk 2 me
I am being 100% sincere when I tell you that nobody has ever wanted you anywhere, ever. I'll show you some kindness and at least make an effort to include you because you crave it so much.
Again: what are you favorite games?
I'll even offer an olive branch of OW discussion, what was your favorite moment in the game? Mine was entering the DLC area for the first time, that feeling of awe as what I was looking at dawned on me was great.
Anon I am the op and I haven't replied on anything besides the Obra Dinn one
And then you guys started arguing over nothing
What are some of your favorite games to talk about anon? You should go make a thread about them so that you can talk with about them with like minded and equally miserable autists.
That's my favorite part of the threads
I'm glad morons like you will never get to enjoy outer wilds. I sincerely do.
feel free to mention anything you enjoy about outer wilds at any time
That feeling of otherworldy terror when you first enter the [REDACTED] and you think you've just been transported to some [REDACTED] and you're panicking like how the frick you're gonna get out until you actually try and realize it was just a [REDACTED]. But then you explore deeper and it turns out there's an entire [REDACTED] within and the [REDACTED] are in [REDACTED]. [REDACTED] are nowhere to be seen and then you find [REDACTED] and you figure out the fact they're actually still [REDACTED] and you can [REDACTED].
I love the way in which all the planets are actually orbiting the sun and aren't simply on rails, and the sense of scale the game accomplishes despite each planet only being a couple kilometers wide. The section where you're looking down at Giant's Deep from the Orbital Probe Cannon is a standout, it instilled a real feeling of acrophobia in me despite knowing I would absolutely survive if I fell into the planet. In general, the way the game uses its aesthetics really does it for me, it's "low poly" but in the same way Sea of Thieves or Deep Rock Galactic is, focusing on really pristine lighting while not having to cut corners in detail for certain areas to accomplish its aesthetic.
The sound design is fantastic, as is the score, especially in the DLC. Speaking of the DLC, the Stranger is hands down one of the single greatest pieces of level design I've ever encountered in a game. It took me hours to stop getting distracted staring up at it.
->
thats not an explanation of what they like about the game
thats a hxhgay (of course) setting up a strawman and pretending outer wilds isnt a game where you get told where to go put triangular pegs into triangular holes. im surprised there wasnt something about how brainlets will never understand how to fly the spaceship which has an autopilot button
Considering how many autists cry about the ship controls being clunky in these threads, it would not be out of place
People used to do that nearly every thread, but the past week or two any thread about the game is basically just shit flinging and bait now for some reason.
forgotten city
>NOOOOO!! WE CAN'T TELL YOU WHY IT'S GOOD, IT'S SPOILEEERS!!
That is literally your problem, though.
the universe is ending and starting over
there. you can talk about the game now
why do you hate outer wilds so much that you go to an OW thread for three years just to rant about how much you hate it?
Very bored and very lonely and doesn't know any better way to get people to interact with him.
I mean if you REALLY wanted to ruin OW threads you could just play the game and find out all the spoilers and spam those instead.
Rain world dlc is coming.
never
Hockey is honestly fricking shit.
>DUDE PUCK AND STICK LMAO
>play on ice and skates just to be quirky and different
>pointless lines all over the field
>some annoying c**t keeps blowing into a whistle and waving his arms for no reason
Peak fricking reddit troony game.
Never but Outer Wilds 2 will come close
Wow, this sure is a lot of OW discussions we're having right now.
This thread is filled to the brim with people talking about the game.
it's closer to old adventure games if anything, especially the weirder ones like myst
These threads are a fricking coin toss. I was lucky like a month back with an OW thread that reached like 400 replies without a single autist derailing the thread.
I'm genuinely sorry for the anons that won't experience this game because Ganker tells them it's bad. Maybe when you gays turn 18
Something about OW and Disco Elysium just attracts the most bottom of the barrel braindead shitposters. The threads when the DLC came out were maximum comfy and you can occasionally get a good thread going about the game still.
not during american posting hours.
Rain World and Outer Wilds threads are the kings of having their threads shit up by pajeets
NPCs like the ones shitting their diaper in this thread can't enjoy outer wilds because the enjoyment you get out of the game comes from figuring out things instead of being rewarded with XP and unlocks and loot boxes for going where a questmarker is to kill a moronic monster. The concept of thinking by yourself and analyzing the world like a puzzle is completely otherworldly to them.
They ask us to "prove" to them that the game is good, and are expecting us to tell them of the time we accepted a quest from John DickFace of the guild of the space c**ts to kill the ancient evil space bear of evilness ™, sadly that's not what there is in this game and describing the moment we understand a logic puzzle or the realization and understanding of subtle link between two elements that both work in the lore of the game and also work as a piece of a flawless world puzzle can't be used to impress the npcs in the same way a Skyrim of duty: assassin's creed of kings and mutant chicken trailer can impress them by showing big vista and skeletons being plummeted to death by estramacons and claymores.
It's hopeless, just don't talk to them at all.
Love how you except them to bite your head off the first time they grab you, and then they just blow your candle.
actually if the loop wasn't 20 minutes long I bet we could tame them by coming repeatedly and making them realize that we want no harm
If you get the stuck in the VR ending it says they hunted you at first but grew accustomed to your presence there and stopped hunting you and you just live out eternity in owlkek VR.
Eh, I doubt it. The game lays it on pretty heavily that being trapped in the simulation for thousands of years has made all of them completely insane.
They just seem kinda depressed tbh. Theyre pretty sane Considering what happened to them. The prisoner especially
Bullshit, I've been out of the reptilian tunnel of light loop for at least 160.000 year and the only downside now is that I fap to the weirdest porn.
outer wilds threads are the epitome of this image
It's because we all fell for the shill threads for this shit game and want to warn others before they fall for it, too. Sorry if this messes up your plan mr dev.
I stopped playing because I couldn't land on the solar station.
For me it's
sad_barn_owl.mp4
I'm more a fan of https://youtu.be/KArlFv2t4rs
Paired with everything you go through it just feels really cathartic.
I thought after falling into the black hole for the first time I had seen most of the spooky shit in this game but for some reason entering the VR simulation and seeing the shadow of the owl watching slideshows was terrifying. The thought of something else being alive when everything till that point had been dead was mega spooky. First time I got spotted by an owl and it howled at me almost made me shit my pants.
Glad I wasn't the only who did the Endless Canyon section first.
>realizing you have to turn off all the lights to get through the door
>hearing the howl once the lights are off
Okay, so after i posted that spy image, i went to eat some hot dogs i was cooking, spent exactly 27 minutes doing so. And you homosexuals are STILL talking about people who don't like your game more than the actual game.
I will NEVER not sage your threads and i will NEVER not derail them. You don't deserve to be happy.
Goodbye, see you next thread.
I like you anon. Let's have babies
what's the point of saging if you make a provocative post just to get replies?
you're not very bright.
This anon is desperate about outer wilds being a once in your life experience and decided to walk the path of bait to keep OW threads alive.
>you will never play Outer Wilds and EOTE for the first time ever again
it's just not fair
Joke on you, I'm damaging myself with alcohol and opioid wienertails to lose enough neurons to play it again fresh.
EOTE made me more depressed than the base game
It's not exactly uplifting, but the moment with the Prisoner did give me the feels. It's like a little miracle hundreds of thousands of years in the making all to let him know that it wasn't for nothing.
Then the actual ending and the way it shapes how you end up shaping everything, that was nice. Like a final affirmation that it all mattered in the end, and everything that you and everyone else did lived on in some small way.
Beat it last week, very fun game. I'll have to grab the DLC at some point, for now I'll leave it as something to look forward to though
I was filtered by the dlc
Which part? I was stuck on the [spoilers]portraits being secret passages in all the towers, and felt unbelievably stupid once I realized
Just drop your lamp on the ground in the dream and walk a few meters away from it. You'll be blown away
>nostalgia kicking in about outer wilds
>can't just play it because I remember everything
Guys I don't know if I have what it takes to finish Outer Wilds, my patience is kind of running out and I'm forgetting everything I've learned, I know I have the log but written stuff that points you to places is just vanishing from my brain.
I'm starting to doubt I'll finish it, I feel like I'm gonna give up. Anybody wanna give me some proper motivation not to give up and maybe some vague hint as to what I should maybe go do
Don't be the guy from Memento.
I just went to every place that I hadn't completed on the log
maybe show us a pic of your log
Clear out some question marks in green and red, then bridge the gap exploring the orange ones.
homie just open your eyes
you have a bunch of shit unexplored
follow a rumor and try to complete it
for example
>orbital probe cannon
it's literally the first thing you see when you wake up
just fly there
sun station, southern observatory, high energy lab, etc, you have lots of stuff to explore
again, pick a rumor and try to complete it
for example there are lots of info on how to get to the high energy lab, or southern observatory
If you really want a hint, I'd say looking around the Orbital Probe Cannon would give you the most information and potential leads right now
Not knowing where you are at the moment and what you've done it's difficult to give you tips.
Post a screencap of your rumor map.
>boot up the game
>it immediately lies to you
I think they fixed it but trying to fly with mouse and keyboard used to be a fricking putrid experience
I got the game in august of 2020 and have always found keyboard and mouse a better way to fly the ship than controller. I'm not even a KB+M exclusivist or something I do use my controller for a lot of third person action games and racing games and even flying games but the ship in OW worked better for me with KB+M.
Really it's best experienced with VR controllers.
idk it seems like we get insipid pseud drivel like this pretty often so I doubt you'll have to wait long

>probably the only game that I'd genuinely buy merch for

Pain
outer wilds is my favorite game but there's something unnatural about these threads. same kind of op same first few replies. can't tell if it's a bot or shill or someone trying to slander the game by pretending to be a bot or shill.
the game is quite good but it's not for everyone. there's not much gameplay and the story is just a cute sci-fi tale, but it's done well enough and if you have a lust for exploration this will get you real good. nice music too.
avoid these threads, they're poison one way or another
>shit game regarded as kino out of contrarianism
Name a better duo than this and Ganker
Excellent game, 9/10, good puzzles and worldbuilding, glad the end of the game wasn't time travelling to save the universe or some stupid shit
I just started playing this game, havent gotten spoiled, also im hiding this thread
Hope to see you guys soon
