and it was easily the most exciting and interesting and amazing experience i have had in gaming since i played outer wilds. which, let me be clear, is i think the highest praise i could possibly give.
if anyone else can see the throughline between those two games could give me some more recommendations i would really appreciate it! i'm thinking along the lines of "games that strongly reaffirm your belief that video games are art"
yes, agreed! i never played the first one and despite having owned the game for years now i still haven't finished 2. thank you for reminding me, that game is very fun
