Outer Wilds is a marvelous game about space exploration in a solar system where distances are measured in kilometers. How does this game make that combination of miniature and magnitude work so well? Here's an attempt at an explanation.

"Outer Wilds illustrates the grandeur of time and space by shrinking them down, and now and then letting the true scale of things escape from the model." The perfect example for me of the "true scale of things escaping from the model" is in the replayability of Outer Wilds being null, it's when we beat the game and realize that all the progress we made throughout the entire game's been made inside our own heads.

But it didn't really matter, because everything she had learned up to that point was still in her head.

This aspect of TOW is what sets it apart. It is its greatest achievement. In my opinion, it makes it the greatest game ever made. This aspect of TOW is also the worst, because it means you will never be capable of experiencing it more than once. You can play it again, but you'll never experience it again.

Honestly I see the Prisoner’s ending puzzle as acceptance of death rather than fear of it. Blowing out the candles and the disappearing pictures have some obvious symbology tied to them, and the fact that you need to do those things to happen to proceed means you need to reach peace with the fact that the strangers, nomai, hearthians, and even yourself have reached your ends, and it’s time to say goodbye

Each step of the way, you let go of a layer of security and safety to access more (setting down your lantern, taking advantage of "glitches", dying while entering the dream) culminating not in something in the DLC, but something in the game: turning off the time loop to reach the eye. It's really perfect how the game itself perfectly connects to the DLC.

If anything, you should take away from Outer Wild's story one of the central themes, that moments are fleeting and meant to be temporary. That's the beauty of it to me. I will never experience playing Outer Wilds for the first time again, and that's why it's so precious to me. A masterpiece like this only comes once in a long while, so appreciate the fleeting moment when it happens.

One thing that I really find interesting about Outer Wilds particularly is it’s scale of society. Outer Wilds finds a unique way of summarizing societies by reducing them down to a drastically smaller number of people; in reality societies are complex and complicated and made of thousands and millions of people. What Outer Wilds beautiful does is maintain this complexity and depth, but makes societies more intimate, tangible, and personable by making the in game societies noticeably small. It really is an interesting effect, but at the same time makes archeology more realistic in the game, because when we do archeology in real life all that we often can do is look at the fascinating lives of individuals.

I never got that feeling with outer wilds. When they speak of the Nomai or the Hearthians species rising or going extinct, it really feels like a huge scale even though its like 20 people

That transition to talking about Solanum/the Nomai at 17:45 was SO GOOD, the music changing and everything made me cry a lot. "And one remains courageously optimistic in their pursuit of knowledge" this is always one of the saddest and most hopeful parts to me. They died such a tragic death but until the last moment they were still exploring, and it was worth it in the end.

I researched every inch of the game itself and learned everything I could, watched a lot of videos and analyses, enjoyed the beauty of official art and watched dozens of fan works. And I still can't let it go. And when I hear that music.. you all know what music - I can't hold my tears. All in there: home coziness and thirst for exploration, sadness, joy and nostalgia, family feel and space loneliness. Outer Wilds is absolute love that gave me astonishing experience and broke my heart forever.

My first experience with this game was watching someone play it. I needed a distraction while doing chores and this game seemed interesting. To say I regretted that decision towards the end is putting it mildly, but I couldn't stop, I had to see it through to the end. I bought the game + DLC and finished my journey to the eye tonight. I knew everything, but I still wasn't able to put the game down while completing the ship log. This essay helped me understand some of the reasons why I loved this game, and why I cried at the credits tonight just as hard as I did watching someone else back then.

For a first video this is mighty impressive. It's incredible how Outer Wilds managed to present the vastness of space in a comprehensible manner. I recently stood next to a renewable energy windmill, and I was blown away more by the size of it than I was standing next to a sky scraper. At some points things get so large we stop understanding just how big it is, and Outer Wilds is carefully crafted to stay within those parameters. What a fantastic game, wish I could experience it all over again.

When I think back to my first playthrough, it feels so distant. It's hard to remember that my memories of playing it were actually me playing it, as time has so disconnected me from it. My memories of this game and the feelings connected to them are so intertwined and feel so deeply rooted in my brain that they feel more like a dream than reality.
