I don't know if there is a recent piece of music that makes me cry as much as this song.

I'm a little late to the Outer Wilds train but it has been one of the most wonderful experiences I've had for myself in the last years.

Do play it if you were ever in doubt. And bring some tissues.

      It's so mind-blowing how much cleverness and atmosphere and wonder is packed in such a small place. Each planet alone has more character than an entire Assassin's Creed or Call of Duty.

      Standing on Ember Twin for the first time and watch Ash Twin rise above was everything I ever wanted in a game.

      I'm going for Echoes of the Eye today. I've seen the shadow and I'm already giggling.

        Echoes of the Eye is so good, my biggest complaints are that I wanted more and that the ending isn't anywhere near as definitive as the base game.

            No, I've been meaning to but I haven't had time. I already spoiled myself because I was worried I'd missed something.

    I downloaded, started playing it, sucked at landing my ship in the water planet with the big waves, then never touced it again

      Did you use a controller? It's (unfortunately) almost mandatory.
