Good spot

Didn't notice, thanks!

I used to live in Cumming, GA, so that's pretty funny.

Such foulness

Good catch man! That prompted me to watch the entire video a couple of more times xD

Literally every planet is dangerous, the less dangerous planet is the one that has a fucking black hole

@@Gabrostil that is one of the most dangerous ones, it has a volcanic moon that actively destroys the surface

@@olc7222 i never got hit by any asteroid of the volcanic moon, and the ground falling just teleports you to the white hole station

@Andrei Salvaleon true, didn't thought about timber's heart lol

Outer Wilds is an Horror Game lmao

He would be that brainy guy in the classroom that you secretly think is pretty awesome, but you still don't want to hang out with him because you are afraid you will instantly ruin any chance with girls ;)

NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

that is amazing

You'll find that satellite is on a rail though. fly to it with your ship and you'll see your ship will start moving because of other gravity forces. the satellite doesn't get affected

​@@iCore7Gaming but it's not? You can literaly collide with it and change it's orbit. You can even get your ship to orbit together with the satelite.

@@alexcebe8051 Are you guys talking about the same thing? The OP is probably talking about the scout around TH. Not saying more, in case I spoil something for someone.

I bought it for one of my friends to play after I recommended it to him and now a couple other of my friends want to get it themselves. Was a tough sell without spoilers though.

I know the feeling, you’re not alone

I was oblivious to acknowledge the games existence, The outer world's shadowed the game for awhile.

their giants deep loss

ugh fucking same TT_TT

@Gregory Bjorn at least make your @ s works XD

Did you enjoy it? I’ve recently finished it now I feel so empty not just because it’s over (since is pretty much all about discovery) but the true ending was just.... wow

@@TheFartGod69 I've been meaning to get back to it. I've only played a few hours. So it's worth seeing through until the end?

@@MilesWilliams88 my gosh, it is so worth it! DO NOT spoil yourself with any info because the game is fantastic. There are a few endings (not really a spoiler) but you will know if you got the ‘true’ ending. It’s 100% worth it

@@TheFartGod69 Awesome! I've been meaning to get back to it for a while. I thought the few hours I played were really cool. Just got sidetracked with other things. Thanks🤙

I would do it, lol

Spirit = breath or booze, still fysic.

@@adora_was_taken that definition is wrong. Use etýma only. Everything that exists by definition is fýsic.

@@alysdexia Yet our brains conceptualize truths using other made-up paradigms that they could not (or at least not a quickly) manage from a rigorous physical approach.

Peter Zellan couldn’t agree more. One of the best of all time, and definitely game of the decade. Absolute masterpiece, and a work of art.

For me it was Rodinia. KSP lets you become too reliant on the map to show if you are in orbit or not.

RRW realistic forces still apply to KSP. The map just made it simple for people to understand, it’s still up to the player to understand aerodynamics and physics to even get to that point of orbit

@@RRW359 Even without the map, that's what I meant by "almost intuit" as I can pretty much establish an equatorial orbit blindfolded now. IFR with rockets is fun!

Same. I actually feel some of the magic other people have experienced playing Outer Wilds was lost on me because I already got that magic from my time playing Kerbal. I still greatly enjoyed the narrative, learning about the ancient aliens and their experiments, etc.

Probably the most fun I've had in the game was accidentally falling towards the black hole and learning it wasn't strong enough to always pull you. Managing to land back on that hanging bridge was the cherry on top.

LOL

god, my thoughts exactly. Do they even have ramen in Revachol?

I came here to post this. It's so good.

Literally my exact thought. Hahaha

yea i thought the same xD

Technically it's "The Outer Worlds" vs "Outer Wilds" ;-) ... Outer Wilds was first though (alpha release in 2015, while The Outer Worlds was revealed in 2017)

I feel the same way. I've gone out of my way to distinguish the two nowadays, since I know I'm likely to mix them up. Bigger issue is that both games were eventually released the same year and are both exclusive to the EGS for the time being and are both space themed, so there's more aspects besides their names that make it likely to mix them up.

Oh wow, I didn't realize they were two different games!

NVM, I guess I did lol it just hit me. You guys are right, they are way too close in name. The Outer Worlds is the Obsidian game that I've heard was a bit disappointing but haven't played.

I agree, i thought he was high or something, i was about to have my brain blown how physics in Outer Worlds was amazing somehow, despite looking opposite. Only at the 2 minute mark my brain caught on. Outer Wilds absolutely is amazing though.

I appreciate this comment, now I can set my expectations accordingly!

Well, there's only so much realism you can add to a game that isn't trying to be a full blown simulator. They still had to make it fun to play and fit the story/lore.

I actually slightly regret naming that particular rule "entanglement" because (as you mentioned) it really has nothing to do with distant particles sharing a quantum state. At the time it seemed worth the trade-off because "entangle" is such a good word, but in retrospect I hope it doesn't mislead too many people :P

@@Alex_Beachum Oh wow, it's you! Thank you so much for your work on Outer Wilds. Playing it was one of the most beautiful experiences I've had with any media ever

Alex Beachum Hey Alex! Just want to let you know you’ve made possibly my favourite game of all time - thank you and the rest of the team for all the hard work!

Would you say you feel Brittle Hollow? (I'm so sorry) I had a similar experience myself playing the game, one of a kind experience.

And I'd say we're all ok with that. Time well spent.

That all depends how close or far away from earth's core you were at the time of watching it.Lol

How close is your reference frame to your computer's reference frame? For example if your computer was much closer to a neutron star than you are it would have displayed the video slower, causing you to age more than 19m 21s.

every 60 minutes in Africa, an hour passes

Feeling old yet.

That close up shot kinda got me

When he started talking about learning physics, I thought for sure he would at least mention KSP

im sure he does.. i'd find it hard to believe that a game journalist like this guy, has never played kerbal space program

KSP's physics are actually less accurate in some ways, only using two-body orbits (planets don't have a 'sphere of influence' in real life), while The Outer Wilds does simulate n-body physics.

@@johnbrown9181 "in some ways", yeah, but in some, KSP is much more detailed and realistic. And if you compare the two, KSP requires a bit more involvement and that's what the joke was about.

@@johnbrown9181 principia mod

I'm curious what the other two games on your list are?

@@NathanHampton Portal and Shadow of the Colossus.

The planets don't even interact with the sun. The Interloper passes very close by but it's orbit doesn't change at all.

@@sirprintalot What do you mean? That's the orbit it has, why would it change? It's not like there's an atmosphere to do aerobraking.

he also got confused with gravity and time, instead of velocity and time.

sirprintalot The interloper has an elliptical orbit around the sun. If it didn’t interact at all it would keep going straight instead of orbit. So what do you mean exactly?

"stellar content" what u did thar i see ...

This video is him roleplaying as Carl Sagan

I think it started when he said the bowl of noodles thing. He was definitely doing it by 11 min

@@WodkaEclair oh, probably! But definitely noticeable by then :)

I think George just got mistaken about linear vs inverse square laws work. I reckon the sun has an inverse square gravitational pull on everything, and the planets have an inverse linear gravitational pull with a finite cutoff some distance from the surface. I find it hard to believe they would bother to calculate the interactions between all the planets at all times, especially if the pull is linear. Most of the effects would be negligible, so why waste precious cycles calculating them? This is a game first, and a simulation second. It needs to run more than it needs to be accurate. Just looking at the game if the planets affected one another the orbits would wobble when they got close. Unless I'm mistaken, they stay on smooth ellipses.

Planets don't affect each other to the degree he thinks. Gravity only really affects you and your ship. Like, when the Interloper passes by The Sun, the Interloper's orbit doesn't change, but your ship can get sucked off and towards the Sun.

What you have to remember is that "falling off linearily" can mean a lot of different things depending on the slope of your line. A somewhat steep line will behave exactly as he explained. Let's say the gravity at distance 1 (let's say this is the surface) is 100%. Then, falling of lineary, at distance 2 - the player being the planet's radius worth away from the surface - it could be 50%. In this case, the gravity of the planet would be 25% at distance 2 and would have completely no effect - 0% - at distance 3. The linear formula for this would be f(x)=150-50x The exact linear formula is most likely different for each planet, but you can see how using this you can create planets with a stronger than normal gravitational pull on objects that are very close (like the player or a planet's moon) but absolutely no effect on other planets in order to not destabilize the system too much. In contrast, an inverse square law will fall off very quickly but will never actually reach zero - so the gravitational effect will always be felt everywhere in the system. This allows the sun to pull the player (and the planets) everywhere, AND, in addition, something that wasn't even mentioned in the video: Allows the planets to move so slowly. Due to the downscaling it seems like the planets are rotating super fast, but they are actually unphysically slow. To counteract an acaurately modeled gravity on these tiny distances and with these (relatively to the sun) humongous planets would mean several rotational periods per SECOND. They can circumvent this by using the linear falloff on planets. You see normally, of course, the gravity between sun and planets is mutual - planets pull on the sun with the same inverse square law that the sun pulls on the planets. But here, the planets can be completely disregarded as their gravity falls off to zero. and @@sirprintalot The interloper DOES interact with the sun - ithe orbit it's already on is the result of this interaction.
