Got this a couple hours ago

Yeah, if you feel like you're getting stuck or can't figure something out, especially if you're early in the game, try another place to explore.
There's hints and clues everywhere, take your time to think on them and piece them together.

Also, don't be bummed out if you have loops where you don't find anything or if you die really early. It's going to happen, it's no biggie, and there are a couple of ways to end the loop - you just have to find them.

tfw you will never play Outer Wilds for the very first time, going in blind, not knowing what it's about ever again

:(

Somebody clarify something for me. If an observer fails to discover the eye of the universe before the heat death of the current universe, does that just mean the universe will die out without the possibility of another big bang, functionally ending all potential life forever? Was the new universe only possible through the efforts and technology of the Nomai scientists and the actions of the player?

The wonder and little bit of fear when exploring a planet for the first time.

Oh dude, I was flying around, went to get out and missed my step. Fell into it and saw that my ship was (I forget exacts) 500k.m or something units(very far) from me

Really didn't expect that and the effect of it scared the shit out of me

Potentially, yeah I figure.
There's an argument to be had that the Eye is at least sentient enough to lure the Nomai in and let them build the probe and the loop, thus ensuring the universe could get "rebooted".
But if the Nomai hadn't even come to the solar system and the loop never existed then yeah, welcome to the heat death of the universe, one that will never get rebooted.

I don't believe the game addresses this but in my headcannon, *that* universe could only have been created through the actions of Nomai and the player. there may be other non-literal ways.

The distorting bulge effect the black/white holes have still give me the heebie jeebies for no real reason, oh damn.

Well, it's an adventure game, so treat everything like a challenge. And two, be confident that dying doesn't matter, and that you can get back to anywhere you've been previously with ease.

Also play the game in VR if you can. It's not a game that you can truly replay.

I still can't fucking zoom in on the ship logs anymore since some update, shit sucks. I wanted to get back to it but now I can't read any of the hints of where to go and what to do.

Everything about this game fills me with anxiety
Accidentally flying into the sun
Falling off the sun station
The black hole
Platforms being sucked into the black hole
Giants deep in general
Being sucked off the interloper into giants deep
The sunless city filling with sand
The ash twin losing sand
Being left to float in the darkness of space with my ship dead
A fucking supernova
But what doesn't scare me? The retarded dark bramble planet
That was dumb as fuck

The way to feel peak the comfy, existential realisation of inevitable death.

Why didn't the Hearthians just have one astronaut observe the quantum moon from orbit while another astronaut landed?

If you're not playing with a controller, switch to one. Piloting is much easier with analog triggers as opposed to keys

NO, it's an actually good game

brittle hollow is a fucking beast of a game "level". I can't wrap my head around how they did it. too bad it took me so long to realize how to rocket boost, would have saved me around three hours struggling to get to southern observatory.

They didn't really have much knowledge about quantum stuff by then, since they only had the piece of quantum rock in the museum.
Remember, you learn about all that stuff over the course of multiple 22 minute bursts, they can't.

This game is amazing, and it's not only an adventure/puzzle with fun and great ideas but it also has an engrossing and meaningful closure. I didn't expect at all to get emotional at this kind of game. I guess it hits some sweet spot in some way.

quick question fags, I always see that satellite thing exploding near Giant's Deep everytime I wake up and I tried following whatever it is that gets ejected from it but I always lose track of it once it enters deep space, can I really catch it? I read some shit about it in one of the ruins but it keeps bugging me

I didn't get invested in the fates of various characters like other people I've seen in other threads but even without that, the game really takes you on a fucking rollercoaster of emotions. You start out with the dread of basic space exploration and all the weird dangers you encounter for the first time and then you get the hang of things and a new layer of exploration and realization drops on you, overwhelming you for the second time.
yeah it's possible to catch up to it but it's not necessary.

You can catch up to it, but it won't lead you anywhere and you can't interact with it in any way. It's already done its job in finding what it needs.

I have caught it. It’s a dead end. I rode that thing all the way out until the end of the loop. It fires in a completely random direction every time so it’s semi lick based whether you can catch up to it before it’s lost to the void or not. It is an actual model that has physics interactions that exists the entire loop time , so that’s neat. It’s a red herring tho.

Awesome, that's all I need to know. Even if it's worthless I want to see it for myself. Thanks bros.
