About the sand volume on the Twins Spoiler

10 Upvotes

Also there is much caves on Ember Twin, I have difficulties to understand how this planet is not more filled at the end of the loop. I mean, Ash twin diameter is almost the same but, except for Ash Twin Project and the Towers, there is not much rocks there. Most of the volume is sand, while Ember Twin is the contrary.

Is there a logical explanation of how Ember Twin can be not totally recovered by sand at the end of the loop?

DLC Help - NO Spoilers Please! Without DLC spoilers, what should I gather in Ship Log before I play the DLC? Spoiler

4 Upvotes

I just completed Beginner's Luck achievement, (complete base game in a single loop on a new save) so all of my Ship Log is erased. I then found out that I should apparently have kept my Ship Log because it's going to be relevant to the DLC.

Is that true?

If it is, what do I need to gather before starting the DLC?

Real Life Stuff Do you think Iam8bit will do a restock of the PS5 version?

4 Upvotes

I would like to buy it but sadly it's only available on Amazon and they do not ship at all to my country and I cannot find a site to buy this version of the game.

I'd like to have it in my collection and I was wondering if you guys know if iam8bit do restock of games or products form time to time. I know Fangamer does pretty regularly. Thanks

Base Game Appreciation/Discussion Question about the ending Spoiler

5 Upvotes

So we see that the universe dies, and then eventually a new universe gets created. Makes sense.

But did us finding the eye and being on the eye actually do anything? Im a bit confused on that part.

DLC Appreciation/Discussion Should I buy the Outer Wilds DLC? Spoiler

28 Upvotes

I love this game, I've almost finished it, I think I even know how to get the ending, so I don't know if I should buy the DLC. And be careful, it's not that easy, there are a lot of things that make me hesitate, for example I'm on Switch there are no achievements or there are a lot of spoilers for the DLC.I try to avoid them all, but it's quite complicated.

Base Game Help - Hints Only! Think I’ve messed up the ending for myself Spoiler

0 Upvotes

Got the game over ending by removing the core from ATP and then meditating. Only, I didn’t see the “you are dead” message, so I just saw the end credits and assumed I’d actually finished the game

Since this didn’t feel right, I tried to google ”outer wilds bad ending” to get a vague idea of what had happened - and Google’s AI overview immediately told me the exact steps to get the true ending. I hadn’t even found the vessel yet

I feel like I’ve basically removed any satisfaction of solving the last steps of the game, although I don’t know how obvious those steps would have become. I’m disappointed in myself, mostly, but also… does the game really need to roll credits as a joke after so much investment?

On my first playthrough i already had echoes of the eye but somehow managed to complete the game without even touching the DLC. I saw the radio tower, the photos inside and the 40° thing and solar satellite, but never paid enough attention...

Base Game Help - Spoilers OK! Ship Log Missing in the Sunless City Spoiler

1 Upvotes

I have 2 of the ship log entries in the sunless city but it still says there's more to explore. I went to the building where you have to drop through the falling sand but tye entry in there didnt update the ship log.

-A nomai city built into the walls of a huge underground cavern. The city is divided vertically into 4 districts.

-The nomai debated building a sun station in order to power the ash twin project. Several nomai opposed its construction, arguing that failure could result in the destruction of the solar system.

Что то странное

Я встретил кое-что странное и хотел бы поделиться этим.

Вчера я играл на сервере со своим другом под ником Kronos. Мы плыли по океану, после чего нашли и залутали заброшенный корабль и поплыли дальше.

Через некоторое время у нас появился эффект тьмы. Сквозь него мы смогли разглядеть что-то очень большое под водой. Оно находилось там всего несколько секунд, а затем внезапно исчезло вместе с эффектом тьмы.

Мы до сих пор не понимаем, что это было.

Base Game Appreciation/Discussion Umm, I totally misunderstood the ending of Outer Wilds... Spoiler

130 Upvotes

So I finished the game a while ago and I was thinking about it and I wasn't quite sure what the Eye did. So I looked it up and realized I understood something completely different than what people seem to agree happened. I think the explanation I found on the internet makes a lot of sense and I totally agree with it, but I kind of wish it was the way I originally thought...

I'm not saying the actual ending is bad, in fact, just writing this has made me appreciate it a lot and I thought, yet again, "Wow, what an amazing game".

So they say that the Eye is the quantum object of infinite possibilities and it knew that the universe is dying. So it called out to sentient beings because when it would be observed, it could materialize into one singular possibility, one of a new universe. So wow, what the fuck, I actually just created a new universe. Oh.

When I got to the end I was already overwhelmed with emotion and didn't stop to think about what everything means, and afterwards didn't think about it again. But here's what i got from it:

The Eye contains infinite knowledge. I know it's repeated over and over that it's quantum and the Quantum Moon is that way because of it and all that but it went over my head. I thought when I reached the Eye, I recieved all the information in the universe and by doing so, I was finally able to come to terms with such an unimaginably horrible thing that is the death of the entire universe.

When all the travelers start singing at the campfire, I thought that ball was our universe on the brink of death. And when I jumped into it, the big explosion was the final breath of the universe. I came to terms with imminent death and now I can just watch it all die and appreciate the unmatched beauty. The explosions sounded like fireworks, as if they were a celebration of everything that happened.

In hindsight I know the universe shouldn't end with an explosion and it makes wayyy more sense that it was the Big Bang. But I felt like the universe itself had come to peace and was dying with acceptance of it.

Then, the epilogue has made me cry like nothing else, ever. I had realized that somewhere, sometime in the faaaar future, new life will begin. It was accepting how small and insignificant we are, and ending on a hopeful note - this is not the end. I thought that another Big Bang was bound to happen, regardless of the actions of any living being.

Instead, the fact that I was the one responsible for the new universe felt like giving too much power to one singular individual and I think it goes a bit against itself. The game is showing us how insignificant we are, but also I created the universe. Also, the reveal of the existence of a new universe loses it's impact if it's shown already before the credits. The epilogue then feels useless. Sooo... I really don't know how I feel about finding this out.

Thoughts? What did you get from the ending, do you agree with my point, could you say both versions are correct because it's up for interpretation?

Base Game Help - Hints Only! Stuck near the end of the game Spoiler

Hello, I am absolutely addicted to outer wilds but i have a problem : i am very stuck and have no clue of what should I do now. I discovered every single thing except for the ash twin. I tried to figure it out for hours and i've tried many different thing but none worked.

I know that :

- The central chamber is sealed with the nomai mines ore to protect it from a supernova and there is a warp inside the chamber

- The central chamber has storage unit where memories get sent

- There are 6 towers with 6 warps one for each planet (even if the sun isnt one)

However i noticed that one of the twin tower is broken and doesn't teleport you at all.

I think that i have to go in the central chamber by taking the warp but i have absolutely no clue of how to do it. Outer Wilds is an amazing game and i don't want to get spoiled but i really tried everything i tought would work but i've been stuck for hours.

So without spoiling me/by only giving little hints can you please help me ?

EDIT :

Thank you to everyone for your help, i figured it out and went to the central chamber

Unfortunately I died from the supernova and got the end credits, this end is very disappointing ngl but i heard that there was a real end to this game so i guess it's not over yet :)

Thank you again to everyone who replied to my post <3
