  • As it turns out, the real eye of the universe was the Quantum Space Buddies we made along the way.
    This week the two of us tried out the Quantum Space Buddies mod! Ever since my boyfriend made me play it last year, Outer Wilds is a game that's so special to the two of us. Before we were recommended featuring this mod on Benefits with Friends, playing it in multiplayer was nothing more than a daydream. Probably the biggest challenge with giving this mod an honest review is simply that playing Outer Wilds a second time isn't really something you can do. That being said, this mod seems like a perfect way to introduce a newcomer to the game and bring them into Outer Wilds Ventures! So this week we're answering the question: Does Outer Wilds with Friends have Benefits?

    I worked on this mod! I made it so a bunch of the sounds and visual effects were properly matched up between the two players, and did some other syncing for usable tools and the model ship. Nowhere near the amount of work the main authors (_nebula and John) put into it, they've done such a great job with this mod. Was really cool to see it played in the video!

    The controls of outer wilds are actually pretty good. It is the realistic physics that throws people off! If you press forward for 10 seconds to accelerate you also have to later press backwards for 10 seconds to deaccelerate again. It is a simple concept but I saw several playthroughs on youtube where the player never figured it out.
    It is a shame because a 2 minute tutorial would have probably been enough to learn this.

      Aye, lots of games treat space as if it had drag to slow you down. For me the biggest wow moment was noticing that this was a space game that actually followed newtons laws, and even goes so far as to give the scout launcher actual recoil. Though noticing the balls in the museum, and then jumping to see how the moon can drag you around as well is a close second.

    • @kstelakis
      @kstelakis 7 месяцев назад +9

      a tutorial like a small model spaceship you can pilot at the start with the same shape, physics along with an instant reset button? shame people think its a mini game when its the tutorial for the physics and then crash land at half the speed of light onto a planet

    • @thebluest_blue1145
      @thebluest_blue1145 7 месяцев назад +8

      ​@@kstelakis a common early mistake is to not pay attention to the museum and other things in the vilage as well - the entire starting area is tutorial. How to deal with ghost matter, how to use the scout and signalscope, gravity crystals, quantum objects.

    You guys introduced me to Outer Wilds with Tarny's first playthrough, and I ended up getting my brother to play it with me. This mod explains how we played it, but instead of alternating who's flying we alternated loops by switching who held the controller. Tho sometimes we asked for switches mid loop to try out ideas or when we felt like the other person wasn't doing it right lol. It was a very enjoyable experience unraveling this solar system sized mystery with someone else! Totally recommed it to anyone who can!

    I love this mod. I've brought 13 friends now through the game, acting as a silent support/cameraman. It really helped a few of them, and for the others... well, it's just more fun with friends.
    I think my favorite part was the fact that after I'd taken 2 friends through, I still hadn't played Echos. Neither had they. We essentially played Echos as a 3 player co-op game, and it was such a blast. Even though it was never designed for more than 1 player, it worked perfectly. Those moments where you get stuck and feel like an idiot and start wallowing in frustration (the one downside of OW), vanished. As now instead it turned into a 'Well, what if we...' or 'Why don't we try this?' brainstorming session, bouncing ideas off one another.
    God it was GREAT.

  • @Ashtarte3D
    @Ashtarte3D 7 месяцев назад +9

    I can admit I bounced off this game the very first time I played it because the controls feel janky since it uses realistic space physics and gamers are often so used to games NOT doing this. But once I came back to the game after years of friends gushing about it being their vote for best game ever made I got over the control hurdle and holy damn was the experience worth it. Cannot recommend enough to try and tough it out like I did. The payoff is so worth.

    So... unfortunately, my first experience with this game was absolutely infuriating. Maybe it was due to misleading marketing, or people not wanting to spoil the central premise, but I came to this game looking for a sense of peaceful, laid-back exploration and adventure, expecting a lot of whimsical lore and environmental puzzles. Something with immersion and progression. That's why I was utterly blindsided by the reset mechanic. Forced, unavoidable character death. Just, "sorry, this happens over and over and there's nothing you can do about it." This was such a jarring violation of my expectations that it's hard not to feel alienated when people talk about how much they love the game.
    All this is to say that, had I experienced the game as co-op with friends, maybe things would have been different.
