- This is the only video I've made that I don't want you to watch. Outer Wilds is an incredible time-looping atmospheric spacefaring adventure where the world is at stake, and you'll only be able to experience it once. The game doesn't explain anything else, so I won't either. Go play the game.

#OuterWilds #Twitch #LongPlay - Hry
The two Questions every Outer wilds players asks themselves at some point:
1. Where is my Ship?
2. Why is my Ship THERE?
every time i go to giants deep
And there are always two guaranteed deaths at some point:
1. Jumping out of the ship without your space suit.
2. Flying into the sun.
This made audibly laugh, congrats man XD
@@ardynamberglow3124 *having the autopilot* fly into the sun
@@zamboni3438 True, although both versions can apply... I stopped counting the amount of times I went straight into the sun just to reset the loop. In hindsight, suffocating was probably faster, but the urge to die in style was stronger!
10 Universal Outer Wilds experiences:
1. Auto Pilot takes you into the sun
2. Try to brute force the ghost matter
3. "How did my ship get THERE?"
4. "I wonder if I can outrun the Supernova?"
5. "I wonder if I can land at the sun station?"
6. "oh THATS how you get into Ash Twin"
7. Terrified of Dark Bramble
8. Existential Crisis
9. Questions the meaning of life
10. Cries at the ending
Honorable meantion:
11. Tells all your friends they HAVE to try this game, but struggle to convince them without spoiling anything
You could not have described it better
Landing on the Sun Station is possible! I spent many cycles whipping around the sun trying to match speeds with the station, it it on top just long enough for me to jump out onto it, and fly over to the entrance! I cried.
Nonono you forgot the most important one.
12. Leaving the ship without a suit.
@@GhostZeroGZ Yes! IT IS POSSIBLE!
@@Butmunch666 It may be possible. But is it wise?
Notices the sun is going to go supernova 1m before it does on the first loop. Spends the entire second loop watching sand decrease.
Definitely unique from all the other playthroughs I've seen.
Getting obsessed with the sand to the point of ignoring exploring the towers uncovered by the decreasing sand is frustratingly hilarious. Why explore unsanded towers when there could be mysteries beneath the sand!!?
@@Deadgye yeah the towers are there, but there could be anything beneath the sand! like more towers!
My first supernova I was standing in my ship reading posters. I had NO idea the sun exploded, I thought the moon blew up or got hit the the comet. Next run I'm just floating around the moon staring at it like a hawk waiting for something to happen, hear the explosion behind me. Turn the ship around just in time to see a flash of blue. Finally pieced it together next run. This playthrough really made me feel dumb. XD
@@MasonLopez My first supernova I literally just landed on Giant's Deep, when all of a sudden kaboom. Thought I just touched down a little too hard or something. Next loop was the reverse, had just launched from Giant's Deep, and my first view after breaching through the atmosphere was a giant blue ball rapidly expanding.
Every playthrough is a snowflake, that's what's great about this game.
This man is the most intellectual idiot I've ever experienced. It is glorious how amazingly quick he solves puzzles without most of the information and then proceeds to throw himself at a wall wondering how to solve a much easier puzzle. I love this man.
Haha, or how he spends 20 mins just standing there waiting for ash Twin to go down.
You just described so much of my life dude xD
It's fascinating to see what people do and don't pick up on...
And leaving your ship without your suit on is a rite of passage.
I did it thrice on Giants Deep thinking maybe I'm just dying from the cold before thinking oxygen.
@@nexuswolf780that is awesome
As is autopilot flying you into the sun
@@yoyodiary5896 Literally the scariest thing when you realise you are flying into the sun and there's nothing you can do to stop it because physics.
And the sand column yoinking your ship 😅
The amount of times he says “I understand now” and 100% does not understand at all 😂 love it
Tbf, there is a lot off principes he induces before them being thought - more than I did, anyway.
The best part is that there were enough instances of him actually cluing into things really early to make it extra funny when he says something completely incorrect with so much confidence
@@ThriftyFangirl That is true.. "Now I understand!... I don't understand."
Maybe he was glossing over some of the set design?
Spoiler:
Like, seeing the skeletons everywhere at dinner tables and at their work stations rocked me. When I went inside the IL finally after days/weeks of mulling the game over working on things in detail, it all clicked. But when you're just powering through, some of the finer machinations get missed
This guy figured out the quantum moon pretty much by pure intuition and also couldn’t figure out that he could take pictures for like 20 minutes. Incredible lol.
He never figured out that you could recall the scout
What makes it funnier is that he'd been taking photos of everything until that tower, and repeatedly said how much he loved the camera mechanic.
@@harmoen but he did, he did it alot
@@aymonverheij1863 really? Cause when he was on the quantum moon the whole time he was just like "huh guess I can't use it here"
@@harmoen because you couldnt take pictures on there
It felt like he was playing the game as if he was solving a puzzle rather than solving a mystery. He ended up unintentionally ignoring a lot of the story as he was just searching for what he had to do mechanically to beat the game rather than working out what was going on in the story which caused him to miss out on a lot of the nuance to the solutions and the significance of the steps required. He figured out what to do, but never worked out why.
and really NOT how you should play this specific game.
Yeah +1 to this comment. Doesn't give the game time to breathe at all
Yeah this is the strangest playthrough. Like at the high energy lab, he gets that the nomai created the time loop instantly, then kind of disregards all other information. He takes away that you can enter a black hole and come out a white hole, but ignores all the time travel stuff associated with it because it wasnt mechanically relevant
I came to the comments to say something similar. Through a combination of intelligence, intuition, and blind luck, he solved a lot of things before he uncovered the clues explaining how to do it, and as a result he missed a fair bit of content. There's a lot of personality buried in the Nomai writings, and a lot of environmental details that help paint the complete picture, some of which is easy to overlook if you aren't exposed to them several times (for example, the fact that you can visually differentiate the writing of Nomai children from adults). Several times he discovered how to get to the next step without figuring out what the Nomai were trying to accomplish.
Still an entertaining watch, though. I'm impressed at how little he needed to explore to reach the end.
I think it's largely because of playing it on a stream, I bet you don't feel like you can really take your time with everything when you have thousands of people watching posting residentsleeper when you read for more than 10 seconds straight.
There's another youtuber who collects supercuts of blind Outer Wilds playthroughs- you've done their job for them!
This game has a Serious Cult Following for blind playthroughs because we all crave that first playthrough feeling again.
Who? Please I wanna see.
@@zen_tewmbs Eelis has a bunch of playthroughs, after this one ofc
@@Felix-kd8tn I hope Eelis eventually does a supercut of this playthrough too. But then there are so many playthroughs I want them to cover, and I've been introduced to so many great creators through OW and Eelis's supercuts so I'm not in a hurry. Besides, like any OW playthough is a good playthrough, any supercut is a good supercut :)
Eelis mentioned!!!
this isnt a supercut though, its the longplay
I love how "the song" makes everyone so much more vigilant and on edge the first time they hear it
I didn't even know the event had a tune until very far into it
It's really funny, Because I didn't actually see what the event was for an extremely long time. I was always preoccupied somewhere and just conveniently looking in the wrong direction every time. The first time it happened, I was looking at my ship logs thinking "Huh. The music is really intense right now." and then died. It wasn't until one loop where I deliberately decided to stand on one of the Ash Twin towers and audibly said "I am just gonna wait it out so I can see what's going on with the sun." Because at this point I had reasonable suspicion that it was _something_ to do with the sun.
And then I heard the music. And I was like "Alright. We're almost there."
And then I was like "Oh. Huh. It was a supernova this whole time."
@@Dryym it's funny that we all have a different response to what "the song" is, because reading this comment I assumed it was one much MUCH closer to the end of the game...
Imagine this
You’re living your day to day life
You’re chilling
Suddenly that song starts playing
And only you are panicking because you know what it means
@@ShadowDancer1000
Thankfully the sun can't and will never go supernova
10:59:00 I have heard devs lament about how hard it can be to get players to look up, but I didn't truly understand the struggle until this part. A bunch of skeletons staring at a fixed point up high, literally pointing to the spot, and he starts counting fingers before he turns his head upwards.
Edit: fixed timestamp
gamers never look up
I bruteforced that one by spazzing out my camera like I did for all quantum puzzles
Same in real life actually. If you wanna hide something, hide it above. Works even for hide and seek if you have something to climb on. Humans seem to be hard wired like that.
39:06 it also took him 40 minutes to look down and realize that you can see the character lol
This guy kept solving the most complicated puzzles like is was nothing, yet struggling with the simplest things and features throughout the whole thing. Finished the whole game in one stream too. Definately one of the more unique playthroughs.
Reminds me of watching NerdCubed play
That’s a software dev for you, that’s how we’re built 😅
@@Asian_Import lol, I was about to respond with a similar thing about autistic people.
meanwhile i'm watching another playthrough where the guy spent 5 hours trying to land a certain station
@@stegotops7415 only 5? I feel you, hate it when they aren't committed to the game enough
"Wait, the sun looks different."
I love seeing people play this game for the first time. It's such a magical thing to witness.
This is the Mr. Magoo playthrough of outer wilds.
Dude spent an hour solving the quantum imaging puzzle, then solved the quantum moon instantly with half the information missing, then warped into ash twin once again with literally zero information, forgot completely about the sun station, rammed his ship facefirst into the interloper and gave up on it, the list just goes on....
I am going to have a brain aneurism. I love it.
9:58:36 To have deduced all of the game’s mysteries on his own, the fact that he never realized what was happening whenever the cyclones hit is hilarious
He got sent up to space like atleast 4 times before that and I'm just like "did you think the planet just disappeared for a sec?"
giants deep was a place i landed with about id say 40 minutes in the game, i landed at some place that had those tiles you can use to walk on the walls, while i was walking on the walls something made me go completely underwater t hen up in the air so far i could see the planet like i was in space then back down again into the water crashing, im assuming the cyclone direct hit where i was.. i survived LOL i ended up flying directly into the giant tornado thing minutes later and died though
Also Gabbro literally talked to him about that at 6:14:30
@@janandreas231 ngl I thought the same thing as him when first getting hit by those cyclones on an island.
I was kinda sad when he tried going at the planet full speed, crashed into an island, and didn't try again! His intuition there was spot on, if there wasn't some rock in the way he would have been to the core right then and there lol
Out of all the Outer Wilds playthroughs I've seen, spending the entire second loop waiting for the Ash Twin's sand to fall is a new one 😅
Yes omg he was OBSESSED with the ash twins 😂
A totally blind OW play through. For 13 hours. My god. That’s a rare sight to see
Had a blast too!
@@PirateSoftware You can play the DLC which is usually considered just as good. Although you might need diapers.
@@danielmastia87 and tissues as well
@@PirateSoftware perfect
@@danielmastia87I have yet to meet someone who hasn't liked it unless they were actually just playing the game wrong
The fact that he got inside of the Ash Twin Project before even flying to Dark Bramble is nuts lmao
I can’t believe how long it took to investigate the probe cannon
What amazed me is how early he did the quantum moon
Because ironically, twitch chat spoiled him by spamming the smile emotes. So he pretty much knew something was up, so he went to investigate further
@@QuantumFeldsparNah I think chat was well behaved honestly everything has something going on in one way or another
This was still one of the best playthroughs I've ever seen
@@QuantumFeldspar::)
I oftentimes see comments under Outer Wilds Playthroughs that are pointing out, how someone did not play the game "right" or was missing information. While I get the place where these comments are coming from, I think the beauty of Outer Wilds is: You can't play it wrong. There is always an emotional impact, wether you stumble your way into soultions by luck or intuition or by learning the necessary information. The emotional impact may be different from mine or yours, but the experience is not worth less, because someone did not see everything. You can still learn a lot about the story later, but you can only experience the game once. Don't shame people, because they did not have the same experience as you. Enjoy the ride they have.
i love this game but i'm sad that he didn't get to experience all of it. i loved reading Solanum's messages, essentially watching her grow up (and then ACTUALLY getting to meet her!!), and the messages left on brittle hollow where the survivors setup the first settlement were incredibly sad. the thrill of entering the orbital probe cannon for the first time and seeing the destruction up close wanting to find the missing module. the eva at the sun station was as breathtaking as it was nerve wracking. i really wish i could experience it just one more time.
Yeah, it's a little frustrating that he just skipped whatever he could. Even near the end, using the projection pool to see a whole extra zone he'd never been to, he just was 'woah this is cool anyway let's go do something else'.
he didnt find feldspar :(
Seeing the sun station was one of my most mind boggle.
Understanding at that moment how nomai died... Trough the core of interloper, then having that realisation that their project fired up only because it's the end of the sun... You are not saving anyone, it's the sad story of a world dying and nobody having a clue that they reapeat 20min in a loop (poor gabro lmao)
I feel like I missed out because I didn’t even realize the messages showed their names until I was near the end
This might be the least someone has needed to progress through the game in a playthrough. As a result, much of the emotional nuance didn't present itself because there wasn't a lot of being stuck and searching for hints. Looking for hints, you notice environmental details and exhaust dialogue options from NPCs.
The thing about Outer Wilds let's plays is that we get to experience this piece of art in ways we wouldn't ourselves, in some cases because we'd think "No, this is the wrong way to experience it".
Allowing people to not have the full and optimal experience (TM) widens the scope of the art. Through this playthrough and thousand others, there are perspectives available to us that enhance our understanding of art appreciation. And, stereotypically, we get to see the game with new eyes as if experiencing it for the first time. For the thousandth time.
That is what I love about this game. Its a profoundly unique experience that can't be recreated through any other medium.
That's a good way of looking at it. I'm still disappointed he didn't meet feldspar but that's life
This one didn't scratch my itch. And that's part of my journey, living with being itchy.
It's a similar sorrow to the end of a life lived without purpose. So much missed that could have been savored. I grieve for the value that could have been held dear and hope for more from a future DLC experience. Maybe coming back to it will help it click
@@MasterCrander I totally get you. I think appreciating life in any form is a healthier mindset than having expectations for each life, but you don't just choose your mindset; you cultivate it.
Can't believe he found the ash twin project so soon, it basically tells the entire game's story and lore all in one place. It was the literal last place i found in my first playthrough and i feel like that was intended since it confirms everything you've theorized and learned, as well as provides the core.
wow my play through was so different I learned about the ash twin project almost immediately and it became this looming yet elusive goal my whole play through. This game’s just so awesome that way
@@thewatcher1249 the moment I pulled the core out, the finality of it all hit me and gave me chills. No moment in gaming will ever beat that "Aha!" followed by the subsequent awareness of what I knew I had to do.
The first time I tried to play through this game, I ended up in the ATP way too early. Pulled the core. Died cuz I didn't know where to bring it, and rolled credits. I knew I missed a ton, but I didn't play it again for two years. Started over last week, having stayed spoiler-free that entire time, and explored EVERYTHING. Got the true ending and have been emotional ever since. Can't stop whistling the song. Mid-existential crisis right now. God damn this game is so good.
First planet I went to was Brittle Hollow. After entering it's core, my mind was blown away by the beautiful black hole in the center. Black holes are cool.
I love how often he goes "I see now, so X is what happened" and X is not what happened ahah
The true Outer Wilds experience
Thor struggling with the quantummania section was mind boggling. If only there were a device that could generate an image...lol Love watching other people unravel this game, truly a gem
The fact he struggled with that, only to get to the quantum moon and *logic his way through the entirety of the quantum moon's 6th location puzzle* is fucking crazy
As someone with OCD watching him fiddle with the light controls in the quantum moon tower instead of flickering his light drove me crazy.
I must say that I as a physicist had problems with the photograph thing, because I know that a photograph is only a snapshot and not a real observer. So I also took very long to understand that in this game photographs are regarded as conscious observers (or the hearthian's eyes on the photograph). Weird that my physics knowledge was actually in the way.
@@antonk.653 4:11:04, I mean the game straight up tells you an image of a quantum object is the same things as observing the quantum object... seems more like your literary knowledge was actually in the way!
I used to think that a replay of this game would be pointless since I thought I had seen everything there was to see. After seeing him completely miss like 30% of the cool locations that I’ve seen, I’m convinced that I should jump back in for another play through to find places that I’ve potentially missed
It's surprising that he figured out many things
Sadly he didnt went to the Sun Station, one of the coolest moments in the game.
Also, few people realize that you can land on Hollows Lantern, and that is there text to read there
He also just completely missed Feldspar lol
watched a friend's playthrough the game with some other friends in discord and when he got there we were all surprised "You can go there!?"@@samnesssepiol1230
Savor the few replays you get to experience, I 100%’d the game a few months ago and am incredibly regretful of how fast I decided to experience everything. I yearn for the unique moments of discovery this game offers.
@@samnesssepiol1230Hallows lantern is a pretty disappointing trip tho. A pretty secluded and hidden text wall, with nothing of real importance
I love the progression from 1:12:30 to 1:13:30
In only a minute, he goes from "wait what did I do wrong?" to "okay bet"
This game is so good
Around 51:00 I CANNOT GET OVER how the first "planet" you thought to go to was the QUANTUM MOON and you coincidentally didn't notice the "blip" noise as it disappeared as you looked around elsewhere
1:13:53 Has a whole star system to explore and decides to look at sand until he suffocates.
4:04:00 I am grinning throughout this whole segment.
4:23:30 Land with your feet, not your face.
6:46:30 It's crazy to me he has spent so much time on this planet and hasn't bothered to look for more towers except this one.
Does he ever learn how to land?
It's even crazier that he kept looking at the Sun Tower for another opening as the sand was pulling away, and didn't notice the 2nd entrance (lower ledge) enravel right in front of him X)
@@thegoldenavatar when landing on the interloper he says it won't let him "use landing mode" (the prompt to use the landing camera didn't pop up) - I'm pretty sure he thinks that to land you just get close then press the landing camera button.
This did lead to one of my favourite moments when he said it was impossible to land on the interloper, jumped out and flew down, waved goodbye to his ship, did a lap, and came back to his ship having landed itself.
I found your channel through shorts recently, and knew I had to watch this.
There's something really special about seeing someone's unfiltered response to discovering this game. Just over an hour in, and I've had a dumb grin on my face the whole time.
Facts. When I found this game, I literally spent 2 days doing nothing but exploring everything I could. 100% game, 41 hrs, in 2 days. I would kill to have that experience again 😢
@@redwoodclimber did you sleep?😂
@@tumultuousv No lmao 😂
@@redwoodclimber understandable lol😂
Also discovered him through shorts and I'm so thankful I did. His problem solving skills are so satisfying, it was truly a treat to watch this. I literally finished this entire playthrough of his in 2 days. I couldn't watch anything else without this taking over my thoughts
The irony of this being the most feldspar of playthroughs but Thor never finding feldspar tickles me
i must say very impressed
solivng quantum moon with 2 towers missing, and finding you know THE BIGGEST SECRET AREA OF THE GAME with no hints and jsut by looking at the teleporters is absolutly incredible
Its kinda nuts how he never realized the warp core music is because he literally just pulled the world's fail safe out and one mistake is gg.
He realized in the last one.
Only read if you've played the game:
Things missed:
- Most of the Ash Twin warp towers
- The Sun Station (largely due to missing ash twin warps)
- OPENING THE MAP
- Tracking things with the ship log
- Going inside the probe cannon
- Meditating
- Resting by the fire
- The black hole forge (due to missing ash twin warps)
- Breaking Spacetime at the high energy lab
- Playing with the Ash Twin Project's blackhole (including, meeting yourself)
- Meeting Feldspar
- How warp cores work (1:1 black/white hole pairs)
HE DIDNT MEET FELDSPAR!? GOD THOR IS SO INFURIATING AT TIMES!
It was frankly impressive how much was missed lol
Don't forget he also missed a ton of clues for the puzzles he did solve, like the quantum tower
Man; Outer Wilds soundtrack gets me everytime. I can’t wipe my memories of this game to experience it again but I will *gladly* continue to live vicariously through everyone else’s blind play through.
I'm looking at the comments after I finished the video and so it's playing again from the start and *just as I read* your comment he pulls out his Signalscope and I hear Riebeck's banjo (the most recognisable instrument from my view) and tears are nearly brought to my eyes.
I really wish I could erase my memory of having played this game so I can play it again with fresh eyes. I have never ever felt this way about another game before playing this one, or since.
This play through is essentially the equivalent of skipping all of the cutscenes. Really enjoyed watching! You’re in a unique position. 90% of the time this game can only be played through once but I would argue that you actually could play again except rather than trying to find the “how”, go back and find the “why”. There’s a lot of story details you missed. I personally don’t mind because that’s fully in the spirit of Outer Wilds. Which is playing however you want to play as long as you figure it out yourself
I haven't seen anyone else talking about this, and I think it's pretty cool. So at about 4:38:26 I think what happened was that while the Quantum Moon was around Brittle Hollow, the quantum rocks on the moon were teleporting around being all quantumy and stuff. Then one of the rocks just happened to teleport right on top of his ship, messing with the collision and launching the ship out at incredible speed (which is a glitch that sometimes happens). It was then launched from the moon, where it crashed and bounced off the surface of Brittle Hollow, getting damaged, and then it fell into the black hole and ended up at the white hole
It's just an insane coincidence that he also ended up going into Solanum's ship, warping back to Brittle Hollow on accident, and jumping into the black hole to find his ship waiting for him on the other side
Edit: Someone else in the comments pointed out that while quantum rocks can launch your ship, apparently there is a different thing where your ship doesn't get entangled with the quantum moon, and so when he moved the moon the ship was just left behind. It's much more likely that that's what actually happened
So the ship got left behind by the moon, then it collided with Brittle Hollow and got damaged, then it fell through the black hole to arrive at the white hole, where he would later find his ship again by pure chance. Which is still a pretty insane coincidence (although admittedly not quite as insane as I thought before)
Only in outer wilds 😂
I wasn't sure what happened but that is actually insane
nah there was no glitch, he just landed while it was outside Brittle and then moved the moon so the ship got left behind bcs it doesnt get entangled to the moon for some reason
@@blackbaby6977 Oh dang, I genuinely didn't know that. The quantum rocks launching your ship is definitely a glitch that can happen too, but I just went back into the game and checked, and yeah, the ship just doesn't get entangled with the moon. So yeah, that's probably what actually happened
The whole thing is still pretty crazy though
@@universe559 yeah its still a pretty nutty coicidence that he ended up falling into the white hole in the end lol
3:51:21 "I wonder what happens if I hit it really hard...I just hope there's no island there." You couldn't *write* a comedy bit more perfectly.
41:27 I just can't help but share the reason stars collapse when they start to form iron. It is not because it is stable but because of how when you fuse lighter elements together the mass of the whole is less then that of them separately (aka the mass defect) because the mass is converted in to energy (E=mc²). But once you get to heavier elements at around iron it inverts to where instead of energy being released it is absorbed. Since the energy released from fusing lighter elements is maintaining equilibrium with gravity once the energy is no longer being released gravity wins the battle and causes the star to collapse. Btw when breaking apart atoms in fission the same relationship is observed just in inverse so fissioning heavier elements will release energy and fissioning lighter elements would absorb energy.

Thanks for this!
wow that makes so much sense! This is one of those little facts that just snapped into focus all these random facts about nuclear reactions I've been looking at recently. thank you!
Love your source, Mr. Randy. I feel educated and entertained.
so like iron is... some kinda stable equilibrium in the fusion fission energy curve?
and definitely not stable stable stable stable stable?
Yes and no. What you said is absolutely correct, but also, a system being in the lowest energy configuration *is* how stability is defined in quantum physics, and iron is absolutely the most stable element in that sense because of what you stated about neither fusion nor fission releases energy from it. In fact, since it is more stable other elements can quantum tunnel past the coulomb barrier into iron on extremely slow timescales. This means that unless the proton turns out to be unstable (which seems unlikely now), in the deep distant future on the order of 10^1500 years, all matter in the universe that is gravitationally bound (which at that point will likely only be isolated planets and black dwarves) will have 'decayed' to iron.

***Vietnam flashbacks of the 27 times you've complained about the ship or jetpack not moving the way you expect it to***
Funny seeing people that brute force the game, struggle so much with the ending. The game really wants you to just stop and smell the roses
I think this game really rewards you for taking your time to become emotionally invested in the story, and spending time thinking about the things you have seen and what they might mean. Playing the game in 10 2-hour sessions with time to think in between is going to be way better than 2 10-hour sessions where you blast through stuff without stopping to smell the pine trees.
@@itspaddyd this. Very well said, good sir.
@@TheGhostie thanks pal 🙏
@@itspaddyd or roast marshmallows
@@itspaddyd Total honesty, it drives me nuts he finished the game without knowing there was more than 2 towers on the Ash Twin's surface...
I can’t believe how much you missed because you figured so much out, I mean your not missing anything as you figured it out, but you missed for the sun station and feldspar which are quite massive, you also figured out two quantum rules without using the towers which is crazy and is rarely done by others
Honestly had a blast and looking forward to the DLC.
Definitely want to land that sun station but no idea how to yet!
@@PirateSoftware well I won’t spoil anything but it’s definitely possible to land on it as there’s an achievement for it
@@PirateSoftware use the autopilot when near and go as early as possible so the sun is at its smallest. Other than that it really just takes a bunch of trial and error. You can also try orbiting the sun in its path so it kinda comes to you. Im only 2 hours in so im not sure if you've tried this yet and will delete it if it turns out you did.
In my own playthrough, I managed to figure out Quantum Rule 3 on my own as well because I always made it a point to check w/e is at the North and South poles of each planet lol.
@@colboy1fish Hey, don't spoil it! I know he probably won't read your comment, but you still shouldn't spoil any part of the game
6:38:48 There are multiple lights and a visible entrance on the outside of this pillar, but he doesn't notice and 40 seconds later concludes "I guess there's no way into that building."
To be fair, that sand pillar is terrifying.
Yeah at 6:38:15 the ledge is even highlighted. Blind runs are super frustrating like that, but I guess that’s what he wanted to do.
Same with around 9:33:00, he gets to the observatory, and doesn't go up the stairs to do the cool thing in the observatory, just gets the knowledge on the cyclones and dips
Its so fascinating to watch the order you found things vs the order I did, and how it changed the narrative pieces you built in your mind as you went. Very cool work, nice playthrough.
He goes to the High Energy Lab so early, but I took like fifty hours to finally figure out how to get there. I found it so funny, though, (spoilers for the High Energy Lab?) when he missed the switch to turn the power up and never broke time lol.
It makes me kinda sad he didn't get to see the sun-station, considering how many times he successfully went "can I land on that?" or even all the times he looked at the sun tower LOL
Unfortunately he figured out how to get to the core of Ash Twin using the towers and never used them again, leading to missing out on that and the upper section of Brittle Hollow(though he almost did what I did there and fly my spaceship into it to get there since I never figured out the teleporters really, leading to ~1 hour of attempts before landing on the sun station)
It's totally fun watching people slowly realize that momentum exists in space, it reminds us of taking our own first baby steps in this awesome game.
Him not paying attention to the conversation on the Twins and thinking the Geysers have a teleporter in them is hilarious
I acknowledge that am a junkie and outer wilds blind playthoughs are my drug so I'll watch almost any. But an 11 hour continuous blind playthrough by a puzzle master like Thor? This is the breaking bad blue meth of outer wilds playthroughs.
I watched the entire thing and it was every bit as satasfying as I had hoped. I'm excited to see you play the DLC!
AboutOliver's outer wilds playthrough is certainly one of my favs personally
@@CaptnCav Yeah his run is absolutely incredible, just found this one and I'm already beaming. Definitely a reaction junkie for this game.
@@CaptnCav Yeah I have been watching AboutOlivers, and this was one of the recommended ones from it. So I guess CZcams understands.
@CaptnCav any others like About Olivers? I think he has the best playthrough of this game, and I want other similar commentators.
@@QuantumFeldspar lil indigestion's playthrough is also quite good
Best game I’ve ever played. Helped me through a particularly dark time. ❤️
Of all the things we learn while playing Outer Wilds, the most important are how momentum and inertia work
I dont think he ever learned that 😂
Not going to the sun station, not finding feldspar, and skipping towers hahahah. I'm always so torn on these playthroughs, because so much cool stuff can be missed and you just have to watch in agony as they walk right past it lol. But it's also fun to see how other people figure stuff out and what they choose to pay attention to
Im waiting with bated breath to see how long until he discovers autopilot to not have to worry about overacceleration
completely forgot auto pilot was a thing was just hoping he'd git gud. I hear he lands on the sun station so it probably clicks for him at some point we all start out bad :p
I really hope he does discover auto-pilot, can someone tell me if he does please? Also, I don't suppose anyone knows where I could watch this with chat?
It looks like he doesn't land on the Sun Station; in a comment I see below this one, he replied saying;
"Honestly had a blast and looking forward to the DLC.
Definitely want to land that sun station but no idea how to yet!"
I haven't finished watching the video yet, but he doesn't seem to've discovered the ability to refuel and heal from your ship yet. His shins stay -broken- obliterated, I suppose.
6 hours in he uses autopilot.
@@AndersSvenson He finds the heal+refuel a couple of hours in.
Must be why the game is never on sale. Why put a game on sale when it's amazing? lol
I've actually found it to be on sale a LOT. Currently it's on sale on GreenManGaming, and they work officially with game creators
Jokes on you; i bought it on sale!
Those devs deserve every cent they make from the dollar everyone else in sales gets
It’s pretty consistently on sale on PlayStation, idk about other platforms tho.
pretty sure its on the xbox game pass
I know my comment might be lost in the sea, but games like this are beautiful. I've always fallen in love with games that are experiences, not just another progression dump or skill game. Tunic was another example of a game that was more than just a game... (It also made me cry at the end...)
I love finding people playing games like this, and I love when it leaves an impression on them. Thank you, Jason, for being an awesome guy, and sharing in your experiences in games like this. I've binged a lot of your videos these past few weeks, and each one makes me smile. You've helped me out of a depressed time in my life, and I want you to know, thank you. Stay wonderful, friend.
Always fun watching people struggle with the ship controls. It's not velocity you're controlling, but acceleration. Really easy to get going once you understand that to reach your destination you have to be accelerating for half the time, and decelerating for the other half
it's really impressive how you manage to figure out so many of the mechanics before you even find the hints for them
I can't believe you didn't meet Feldspar even once (excluding the ending)
I took wayyyyy too long to figure out the jellyfish thing in the giant's deep core even with the hint from Feldspar's note
I feel like he had to be looking at chat sometimes
@@tito2735 he 'admits' to reading chat. if you paid attention you'd notice him literally replying to chat.. :p
@@ramon1500same, i couldn't put two and two together
Always love watching people playing Outer Wilds blind, wish I could forget everything about this game so I could experince it for the first time again. Alas I know just have to enjoy watching others play through the game, great VOD happy you enjoyed the game
I really enjoyed it and want to hit the DLC sometime soon.
Just a wonderfully written adventure.
@@PirateSoftware The DLC is 1000% worth it. Quality of gameplay, story, and music are all very comparable to the main game, which in my opinion seems pretty rare for a DLC. The amount of new content is also genuinely incredible. Can’t recommend enough
The DLC and a trip visiting what you missed in the main game would be brilliant 🎉
I started watching this.. but definitely gonna stop and play the game first.
This game is the most viscerally upsetting and absolutely beautiful work of art I have ever witnessed. I can’t put into words how hard this game makes me cry in dread and smile I’m absolute joy, it’s awful and gross and unique and absolutely beautiful and amazing.
*Moves*
"It detected me even though I wasn't moving"
Certified Outer Wilds classic right there :)
How does this man manage to never look directly at the door on the back of the sun tower? Feels like me when I played through the first time lol
This is, with out a doubt, the most incredible game I’ve ever seen. Never before have I seen such depth and emotion be showed without speech. It’s beautiful to be able to hear a familiar melody from anywhere in the solar system and pinpoint where you are. The music may not be important to the story, but without it this game would never be so perfect
Loving the long-play so far! But I do have a comment on 7:41:16
From a game design perspective, the reason why the fish do not reset, is so that the player has to really figure out how to deal with the fish, since they have to apply that knowledge in one go for the endgame. There are many avenues of figuring it out (although honestly, I feel it's not presented as well as it could be, since the main knowledge is hidden behind a pretty complicated puzzle), but being able to reset the fish every time would make the encounter entirely trivial and very brute-forceable. I'm sure there are other ways to go about it though. If I had to guess, I'd say Dark Bramble was one of the first or very last (under some crunch) areas that was designed for the game, and so does feel a little lackluster.
I love how there are so many consistencies on different peoples playthoughs. Accidentally flying into the sun, purposefully flying into the sun, incorrectly trusting autopilot to not fly into the sun.
Outer Wilds might be the most special game I've ever played in 30+ years of gaming, and I'm glad you've been able to experience it as well. It was my game of the year for 2019, narrowly beating out Disco Elysium; it's also my game of the decade for the 2010s, and I still can't hear those three notes on a banjo without getting misty eyed, which can be a little rough since I am, in fact, a banjo (but luckily, mostly mandolin) player. It's absolutely wonderful, meaningful, has a lot of heart, and really captures a bittersweet kind of spirit that can be extremely difficult to articulate. The fact that you're the one who has to construct the story as you go, and it necessarily filters through your own personal perspective, means everyone experiences it a little bit differently as well, which only heightens the impact and makes it even more personal. Outer Wilds really shows the power of gaming as a storytelling medium.
I could not possibly compare outer wilds to Disco Elysium. That game is so special to me. I cannot choose
300 iq playthrough besides missing the "take a picture of the gate that moves" hint for 10 min lol
(Spoilers for the video!)
Here's a list of things he didn't do in this playthrough! Not intended to be used out of malice, of course. The list is here either for the curious people, or for Thor himself in case he wants to ever go back and try some of these things. I'll add a star to all the most interesting/useful ones!
-*Didn't learn how to meditate (and end the day early through the menu), by talking to Gabbro on Giant's Deep, which is something that unlocks as a talking option after the 3rd loop, assuming you've talked to him at least once on one of the previous loops;
-*Didn't find Feldspar (the guy that Thor didn't recognize at the end times);
-*Didn't find Feldspar's harmonica music on Timber Hearth (if Thor ever wants to find this guy on his own, this is where I suggest he starts, in case he reads my comment! Won't spoil anything else, tho him and Gabbro are absolute chads);
-Didn't go to the Anglerfish fossil directly;
-Didn't go to the Quantum Grove (this one only helps make sense of Gabbro's little thing at the end, with the signs);
-Didn't find the frozen ship on the Interloper;
-Didn't find the Dark Bramble Dev easter egg, but, to be fair, I think I've only seen CohhCarnage find it, if I recall correctly, and it's not important to begin with;
-*Didn't cause a paradox at the High Energy Lab, after throwing the Little Scout into the miniature Black Hole, and recalling it before it entered (but after it left the White Hole);
-*Didn't cause a paradox by waiting out the end of the sun inside the Ash Twin Project core, and then meeting his paradox self, and then dying somewhere else after;
-*Didn't just leave the star system with the Ash Twin Project core, thus getting an alternate, cold, lonely ending;
-Didn't leave the star system to just get an alternate loop ending animation;
-*Didn't go onto the Sun Station via a black hole teleporter, to find out something, well, rather harrowing and sad! (not gonna spoil exactly what, unless he found it out by himself, I don't remember, but this knowledge is one of the more important ones, because it changes how you feel about everything, but, ofc, it's not mandatory to finish the game);
-Didn't try to land onto the Sun Station manually, which a lot of us tried, and only the mightiest succeeded;
-He's never been on the Orbital Probe Cannon, around Giant's Deep;
Things he figured out intuitively, without learning about them in the game:
-The Rule of Entanglement ("if the observer stops observing, due to lack of light, they too will move along with the quantum object until they start observing again", learned usually in the caves of the Ember Twin, when you find the quantum rock);
-The Rule of the Sixth Location ("in order to reach the Eye of the Universe's version of the Quantum Moon, you have to get the tower to the North Pole", learned usually in the Tower of Quantum Knowledge);
-How to reach the core of Giant's Deep (learned usually from Feldspar, and you also find out that the jellyfish taste horrible!);
General Notes:
As some have mentioned, the fact he figured out so much by pure intuition, in conjunction with the facts he took SO LONG figuring out that he could take pics in the Tower of Quantum Trials, was absolutely hilarious, and I loved watching it!
It says a lot about both his intuition, and about the game's design, that he was able to do so much on his own. Some may say it's the game's fault for not making the tips a bit more obvious, but I think Thor preferred it that way. Having your hand held is necessary at times for games, but can also impede a person's self-satisfaction at achieving goals on their own. I do like how this game does it, since it feels like the hand holdy parts that tell you how to beat the game are meant for the Nomai (and other travelers they would've maybe met had they lived), and you're just stumbling across it all. It's not as immersion breaking as "text screen pops up on your monitor telling you exactly how to beat this puzzle", and I appreciate that a lot.
Also, his Pavlovian fear of entering a black hole, worrying it will put him at the white hole station is hilarious as well! The ending is as amazing and melancholic as always. T-T
And I absolutely agree. Fuck Anglerfish. Fuck Dark Bramble. Fuck 'em.
All in all, absolute blast of a video to watch! I can't wait for DLC, I think he'd love it to a good degree!
Lemme know if I missed something. ^^
good comment
Didn't notice they're playing the song together across the solar system. And he didn't fly the toy ship lol
Thor: **Standing in an hourglass**
Also Thor: "I wonder how long until the supernova happens..."
5:59:20 I think the sun expanded, and the Interloper got too close and died, which is why the supernova music didn't play.
Yes, the Interloper's orbit coincides with the Sun in its expanded state, which is what he would've realized had he ONCE in his playthrough opened the map.
The speed with which he figured out how to go to the north pole in qm is not common (love the game, re-experience it through others playing it). That's a smart dude
Understanding it simply because Solanum says everyone lands at the south pole... Really great deduction.
knowing things about quantum physics is a big help.
Ehhhh ... this is a pretty obvious deduction from the game telling you you'll always land at the south pole. The implication is that you are not able to land on the north pole with the ship, and the implication from that is that it's a special place to be.
@@ProzacStylings how is that obvious? Would someone who doesn't know the game be able to get that? You do. The issue with knowing that is that we cannot sympathise with thise that don't know
@@VolkColopatrion When I played the game I also instantly knew that "you always land at the south pole" meant "go to the north pole".
It's an exploration video game. The game telling you it's difficult to arrive at XYZ means find a way to get to XYZ. It really isn't a complex deduction.
> Goes to ash twin
> lands next to the landing pad
> spends the entire loop trying to discern its purpose
outer wilds moment of all time
Having watched so many of these, this is one of the weirdest paths through the game. You missed so much, and solved so many problems without any clues aside from what the puzzle hands you on-site. I would love to see how you go through the Echoes of the Eye DLC.
This is genuinely one of the most resonant games I’ve played in a loooong time. The fact that a few kids in college made such a tightly woven, well structured game is frighteningly impressive. Whatever they put out next is an instant purchase from me: no pressure 😉
To clarify, the prototype indeed was made as a thesis by Alex Beachum. The prototype was adopted a few years later by Mobius Digital and really talented teams (including Alex himself and his friends). The game then transformed into this commercial version a few iterations later.
4:37 "LET ME IN" and "I didnt expect to do a lot of things, so I died" embody some absolutely happy-go-lucky energy that breaks the templates, converging with your soothing deep voice
The thing I love about this game is how well the build up to the inevitable end is done. New players instantly feel the sense of unease as the sun grows and the music starts, after a few loops that feeling turns to frustration as it becomes clear there is no way to avoid the time limit. Eventually though, it turns to satisfied resignation as players realize that they've done all they could with the time that they had. With such a simple mechanic, it makes a profound commentary on death and loss.
I've only just begun to watch this longplay but it's so nice to see someone who actually appreciates all the thought put into this game and notices all the little beautiful details and plays it with an inquisitive mind. I can't play this game again so watching others play it for the first time is the closest I have to reliving it.
For a game dev, I had hoped he would be a bit more thorough with the dialogue and exploration-and just caring about the story-especially considering his own game’s entire story is told entirely through dialogue. But this is still good. Hopefully he gets a bit more thorough as it goes along.
Edit: He did not. I know he’s a hacker and all, so the mechanics and puzzles are quickly solved and the most fun to him, but I wish he gave the game time to breathe. Not sure if that’s more of a problem with his particular brain, or the fact that this is a single play session, but I do wish he paid more attention to the importance of all of the information rather than just the mechanical relevance of the revelations. Seems like he didn’t even care about the story, just tried to solve the puzzles.
Still an interesting playthrough, but I find mysef wishing he took his time in multiple sessions, as opposed to plowing through the whole thing in one go.
I walked away feeling that core emotional experience of this game was missing.
Narrator: he did not
I think it is due to long play. You can tell that by the 7th hour he's becoming more tired of talking and analysing information, plus streaming on its own is distracting, and there is half the game ahead still.
hopefully when he does the dlc he splits it up abit
@@triflest3542He wasn’t even thorough in the first 60 minutes, that isn’t due to fatigue.
@@SnailHatanthe whole first hour was signalscope city lol
04:04:00 It's nice to see even accomplished gamedevs and experienced players sometimes ignore blatant tutorial messages :D
Great playthough so far!
to be fair even after he tried understanding the tutorial message he still struggled until the next loop
Very much an “all the information you need is in the task” moment.
I was relieved when he finally revisited the plaque and actually gave it some thought.
I think by the time I came to this room I knew that the game tends to give you everything you need in the moment, he got here so much quicker than I did 😂
It was so painful.
Been watching your shorts really then had to pop in for a playthrough of my favorite game. I cry every time the ending music plays. You are so, so good at cycling through the things you can do to engage with a mechanic. The way you trial and error'd rapidly through solutions to things that are, elsewhere, given hints for was just wild.
Thanks very much for giving me another Outer Wilds story to watch!
4:21:14 "i've learned something that will stay with me no matter what"
that's this entire game summed up in one sentence. It's why this game is so freaking good.
Been enjoying the shorts and am happy to be able to watch the full playthrough now
Funny how he can bypass huge amount of steps out of pure curiosity - reach huge plot points but not knowing how his jetpack works for almost 2 hours LOL
even at 4th hour...why doesnt he use his jet pack to slow down *any* fall or redirect himself. Unfortunate that he didnt go to a lot of lore interesting spots.
He would be patient enough to wait on the ash twin, but nope the F out within 0.5 seconds lol...or use his flashlight in the quantum moon tower.
unfortunate he didnt truly experience the whole game. He sped thru them.
This playthrough was genuinely so fascinating to watch. He’s exceptionally clever and repeatedly solves complex problems while still missing important info - not by brute force, but actually figuring it out - and yet continuously struggles with basic mechanics and repeatedly misses really obvious cues.
Like, at one point he says there’s no way into the Sun Station warp tower while looking at the open door, but he manages to intuit 2 out of the 3 quantum rules on the fly.
Definitely one of the most interesting streams I’ve watched.
his lil speech about the game during the credits was very well said and perfectly described my feelings for this game years after playing it
I saw some of your shorts and the saw you played outer wilds.
This is probably the only perfect game I have ever played. And I don't mean it couldn't be better. But it is fully finished and its experience is immaculate. I love it. In my top 5 games.
I'm about 3 hours in so far, and I am routinely shocked at how well you can piece together the bigger picture or just notice the tiny details like the probe firing off in a different direction each time or immediately putting together the symbol for the eye of the universe with only the attlerock dialogue to go off of.
Accidentally getting the Little Scout at the Beginning of the Universe easter egg is just the sweetest capstone to this run filled with genuinely incredible deduction prowess.
I'm still laughing that he solved the quantum moon before he found the autopilot button.
I was in complete shock after watching for 5 hours straight just to finally see him use the autopilot for the first time and not even acknowledge it
Man this is easily my favorite game of all time. The fact that you can really only experience it one time. And the fact that the entire point of the game is to explore for explorations sake alone. To uncover the mystery of the world around you. Showered in constant wonder and awe. It has to be one of the most pure, magical, and unique experiences I've ever had, in gaming and in life. And that it's a one shot deal just drives cherishing that experience to an uncontestable place in my heart.
I just spent like 10 minutes yelling "you have a camera" at my phone
my coworkers are looking at me weird.
11:07:17 I think we reach a point when a lot players want to play something unique, special as they got tired of grinding games and they have other things to do. This game leaves a lot positive vibes after all, devs did incredible job.
When I saw this game appear on gamepass one day I had just broken up with my girlfriend of 5 years and was either playing or waiting to play Outer Worlds as an Obsidian fanboy. I was like "oh wow a game trying to capitalize off the name of a popular release" wtf back off, so let's see what it is. I began one of the most profound gaming experiences of my life. I ended up messaging the devs and even getting a reply thanking me for my kind words. I hadn't remembered enjoying gaming that much since I was a child on SNES. So happy to watch you experience this and the dlc. Side Note: I studied Physics & Music in college and grew up watching every star trek and star wars.
The fact that he speedran death has me in stitches! I'm pretty sure there was some kind of achievement for that too
3:57:54 I've never heard the ship alarm go off like that without the reactor being damaged. I was very surprised when your ship didn't just explode.
I guess it was damaged very little, but the center hull damage superceeded the reactor damage on the console.
10:24:40 the game actually gives you a minimum speed when you enter, it keeps pushing you until you get past the anglerfishes, to prevent you from getting softlocked that way :)
Is it a separate force, or just momentary immunity to atmospheric drag?
@@quantumblur_3145 I don't actually know, it's a "modifier" of the current game physics, couldn't tell ya which one
@@quantumblur_3145 Separate force, when you enter a seed it sets your speed & direction + a lil bit of your original speed & direction. Also might be wrong on this one but I don't think there is enough atmosphere to have noticable drag, mainly you feel slow because the place is absolutely huge (btw you can see how huge if you leave a scout in DB, and while outside look under the sun with the map, you'll see a black sphere, that can sometimes flicker depending on how you placed your scout. All the rooms are inside this black sphere)
I wish the game gave you a bit of leeway with the anglerfish, e.g. if you accidentally bump your thrusters once it alerts them, then after that they come after you. Would feel less frustrating that way
@@tokyodove well it is supposed to be an impossible thing to conquer without the knowledge that they are blind, also they are supposed to be annoying, so you come back later after you learned and then do it flawlessly
That moment where you leaned back at the end and said “wow” was amazing. It’s exactly how I felt. It made me feel awe over existing and anything that can do that is truly a work of art. Glad I got to experience it again through you.
I think what I realized is that outer wilds confronts you with real fears and if you stick with it all of those fears yield to beauty and wonder.
Its always fun watching someone experience this game for the first time and the thing I absolutely loved to hear was your description on the ending.
The way I saw it was that no matter where the friends were during that time, everyone had their part of the song to play and at any moment you could count on one of the other homies to be in tune with the others, to me it was kinda like how friends can go their separate ways but in the end it just makes for a really good story when you all meet back up around the campfire to share all the stories you have and just sit back and appreciate it all for what it is.
I don't know your name, but you made me watch the whole thing (after playing the game, of course) and I smiled from start to finish.
I'm living a pretty bad period of my life, and you somehow managed to do the impossible on me. So if you'd ever ask yourself if what you do is worth the time, this is the answer.
Thank you.
Awesome "first cycle"! Ended up perfectly timed and positioned. Love it.
This game is beyond superb. It felt like a privilege and an almost journey of self discovery to play it.
I loved watching you experience it, picking up on so many things so quickly and doing the unthinkable. Going from blind to completed in one run. There's so much more to explore, I found myself shouting at the screen more than once 😂
I played this in a time of massive change in my own life, my daughter was on the way, we lost our home and had to move, due to ill health I needed to change careers too.
So this game got tied into those emotions so deeply, a real profound and beautiful experience. And on that journey everything worked out in the end. I will carry this game and the way it made me feel, always ::) 🧡
In the end, I sat there and didn't want the stream to end purely just for the music. God I love the Outer Wilds theme so much! Thank you Thor for this beautiful video, it means a lot to me.
You made me experience this game again. Thank you for that. Truly a masterpiece.
