This video examines the game's philosophical underpinnings, innovative storytelling, and the power of language in shaping our understanding of the universe.
As a four-eyed alien astronaut trapped in a 22-minute time loop, you'll unravel the secrets of ancient civilizations while confronting existential questions about legacy, memory, and the nature of existence. Discover how Outer Wilds reinvents the Metroidvania genre with knowledge-based progression and intricate language puzzles. From the haunting Nomai ruins to the fear-driven Owlks, each discovery challenges your perception of life and death.

Any notes about this video will end up here in this pinned comment. I don't have any yet.
This script is fantastic. The way you describe the lore makes me want to go play it again
Outstanding and thought-provoking analysis. One of the game's most unique characteristics to me is its fleeting nature, that it can only be experienced once. Those that yearn to re-experience it can only do so vicariously through others. I can't even say how many streamers I've watched play this game, with each one a little different. Thank you for this well-researched video. (Also I very much enjoy the Heaven's Vault representation - that game doesn't get nearly as much recognition as it deserves.)
I love watching your videos , too bad there's not more to watch . Great work on the video man .
Thank you, always working on more stuff
Simply brilliant. This is easily my favorite video of yours. Tying in all the other games along with philosophy of life was just exhilarating to see unfold. Thanks for this, I really needed it
You really need to convince Mauler and Fringy to play this game. I think Frinty especially would appreciate this game on a conplete blind playthrough
Oh god not the music…..don’t make my cold heart feel things again…..
Greatest game ever made.
I always felt like I missed out on having my worldview shattered by Outer Wilds, since I've already gone through other experiences that lead me to similar conclusions before playing it. From my perspective, the game was about curiosity - witnessing everything the universe has to offer, concluding with you being witness to the birth of a new one. There doesn't need to be a higher purpose to it. The mere act of exploration is reward enough. And, since we are also a part of the universe, it's like we are the universe exploring itself. Maybe that's why the eye is called the eye - the whole point of the game, the thing it offers to the Owlk in visions, and the thing it gives to the player at the end, is to see the cosmos, in its full glory and beauty.
Or maybe my mind is more visually oriented instead of linguistically oriented like yours and that affects what I focus on and center my interpretation around.
A perfectly acceptable alternative
One of my favorite Video Essayists talking about one of my favorite games ever made!
Get out the popcorn!
Hope you enjoy
Outer wilds will also be one of my all time favourites games. Thank you for the video, it was fantastic. Made a long and shitty day a lot better.
Exceptional deep dive into the Outer Wilds. I picked this game up during the winter sale and got 9hrs in before conceding to looking up guides 😂
Also - Regarding penguins, my first thought was Pingu
I'm really happy to hear you enjoyed it. I don't think looking up answers is necessarily a bad thing, there is a LOT of content in the game and having some direction can be super helpful. Did you know you're only the eleventh person to ever mention penguins?
You're so good at this I kept hoping the video would never end, bless the algorithm.
You deserve more recognition!
thank you, if you like the video, consider sharing it
Been waiting for this ever since you mentioned it on EFAP! Can’t wait to watch it
hope it lives up
Me too I've been lurking every day since he spoke about it
A great video, I love the outer Wilds and thanks to you I might have found a few other games that might scratch that itch.
It is a wonderfull game that has had a bigger impact on me than any movie or book I can remember because of how ivolved you are with making the discoveries and unearthing them. You could make a movie about this story and it would never have the same impact. I was the one who reached the core of giant's deep, I found the vessel in Dark Bramble (fuck you Anglerfish), I went to the sun station and found out the supernova can't be stopped and I went to the eye and started a new big bang by sitting around a campfire with the friends I made along the playing a song and obviously I rosted a marschmallow to perfection.
That just hit's so much harder than watching somebody else do it and yet because that is the closest I can get to experiencing this gem of a game again and why I watch every playthrough of this I can find.
Fantastic video, im really glad i subbed to you after showing up on EFAP haha
Haven't watched the video yet but I 100% agree. The science of how the universe works in this game is crazy. Discovering the mechanics and the mysteries of the universe feels like you are an actual scientist in the coolest ways. Absolutely amazing!
I don't talk too much about the physics, but the system they built is very impressive
I somehow completely missed this in my feed as well as the community post about the video. Thx RUclips..
i remember the first death I was like wtf did I do wrong? good times.
Great review!
Certainly one of the best gaming experience there is
Wow, such comment to appease the youtube gods!
Im sure the video is excellent. I haven't played the game yet and don't want spoilers so I'll be leaving now, but when I have finished the game I'll be back.
It's worth a play ;)
Haven't played this but it looks absolutely amazing. What an excellently well told story and great work teasing out all the nuance you found.
Happy you enjoyed
i see outer wilds i like the video
good choice
Cringe
Excellent video. The game is a absolute masterwork of exploration and discovery, and your video did quite well in explaining it.
glad you enjoyed
Fantastic, thought-provoking video!
I wasn't aware of the DLC... don't know how I feel about it. It looks like it has a different texture to the rest of the game.
Anyway, interesting stuff. Deserves more attention. :(
if you enjoy the video, consider sharing it ;)
Well, I got to where you started discussing the DLC and I haven't played it so I don't want to spoil it. Great video to this point. If/when I get to try the DLC I'll come back and watch the rest.
Good video. (It’s very well done, I cannot fathom the words that describe how interesting it was)
Wait, Comprehensive… though more might follow.
I fully believe that Outer Wilds is the greatest game ever made
I do love me some OW.
Gonna watch your vid in multiple sittings.
I hope youre gonna address some of the more glaring holes too though.
let me know how I did,
Im gonna post my list of issues here for now, then see if you mentioned them
1. the loop restarting with you at the campfire makes no sense, timeline wise, because of how time doesnt progress as long as the statue doesnt look at you.
2. the myriad of literally cosmic coincidences required for you to find the EOTU
3. you should come out at the EOTU when youre at the 6th location, have the QM photographed and jump into space. Yet here the previously established rules dont apply.
4. the timetravel makes as much sense as in any other show that isnt strictly closed loop or branching. None.
Starting video now
Video issue #1
I think youre giving the written language in OW way too much credit.
The other games you mention have scriptures as their core gameplay. In OW it's click-to-read. There's never even an issue with ambiguity.
One neat thing is that the children's writing is messier, but thats just a little easteregg, and doesnt even affect the translator in any way..
OW issue #5
The reconnect between the two tribes shouldve absolutely been something you can read about. It'd be one of their biggest holidays
Alright, i see now this wasnt a review per se, but instead what you took away from the game.
It's a good video, but ive spent too much time talking about this game, and watching videos about it to take away anything new from your vid.
If you havent already, you might wanna check out the Resonant Arc podcast on OW. They give some neat interpretations and anecdotes on the more interpretative parts of the game.
Keep up the great work, man
That was some Good Rat, good job M!
happy to deliver
Finally a 2+ hr video on outer wilds without an obnoxious unfunny youtuber wasting time with “rock dating” bits on the name of each npc… I’ve never wanted to punch someone so much as that guy
