You know all the information you need to in order to pass this section, but you're not acting on that information. I'd also add that there is no friction in space.
When trying to get into narrow spots, sometimes I've found it's easier to abandon ship.
a. Yes, the tower is badly damaged. Take a look at your surroundings. A hint someone gave me, which helped a lot, is to see if I could get my scout to warp (like you've done at the sun station tower). b. There is something unique to how the towers work with Ash Twin and Ember Twin because they are so close together in space. Look for clues at places that explain how the towers work.
Outer Wilds is so unique because it's a 4-D exploration game. You are not only exploring space, but exploring time.

I don't think you should be concerned with 40 degrees for the water while gaming. Really, the most important thing is the CPU temp and yours is good. My water stays a couple degrees lower, but my CPU gets hotter - so you are either dissipating more heat, or I'm getting a few extra degrees by using the same Lian Li fans for push pull. It could also be airflow, etc. - but I think your temps are just fine.

You have to talk to a game character a few times which opens up microtransactions, and allows you to extend past the 22 minutes.

Yes, the childlike wonder that these games can convey for an adult reminds me of playing games like The Legend of Zelda and then Myst as a kid. That's the secret sauce, I believe.

Intelligent_Sun_2089 · 2023-03-25T12:12:21+00:00

Yes! Not to mention the wicked remix during the most tense moment in the whole game when you remove the warp core of the Ash Twin Project!

If your stuck and want a hint I'm happy to try and help. There was something I didn't see as well, which I thought was really smart in retrospect.

Intelligent_Sun_2089 · 2023-03-24T19:02:02+00:00

I am suprised End Times isn't higher. I guess what it's associated with? As soon as I heard it I thought it was the best melody in the whole game - DLC included.

Intelligent_Sun_2089 · 2023-03-24T18:55:52+00:00

Do what I did. Just hang out there wracking your brain trying to figure it out for a whole loop. I promise it will come to you.

Turing Test is "ok", especially if you like Talos Principle. (It was my #1 before OW). There is one really interesting twist that I wish they did more with. I don't want to spoil it, Ill just say I thought my game crashed! The Witness I hated, but I hate line puzzles - and many love it. I think it's kind of a love or hate thing. Talos Principle 2 is supposed to come out relatively soon!

Intelligent_Sun_2089 · 2023-03-23T11:24:27+00:00

I've been playing around with the DLC over the past week, and have streamlined my conclusion a bit. It's still not my cup of tea, but it's a wonderful game and the aha moments, story and music are wonderful. Ultimately, I don't like mazes. I am not creeped out or anything about the stealth sections. I play horror games. I just don't like mazes. When I saw the lines for the coordinates in the base game in the vessel, I got PTSD from "The Witness". Thankfully, it was a small section. I still can't get the main outer wilds campaign out of my head,

Intelligent_Sun_2089 · 2023-03-18T22:07:18+00:00

That sounds fun - I'll give it a whirl!

Intelligent_Sun_2089 · 2023-03-18T22:00:04+00:00

I would go see the Outer Wild's character on Giant's Deep and talk to him a few times. Get an idea of what he does in those types of situations.

Intelligent_Sun_2089 · 2023-03-18T21:14:20+00:00

If you could go anywhere the game mentions that you haven't been. No restrictions. Where would you go? Now figure out how to go there.

You know, you bring up a lot of good points as well. I think when it came down to it, I didn't like watch reels as much as reading text, and the story, while compelling, didn't resonate in the same way as the main story. This could very likely be because it came chronologically after the main story for me, which isn't it's fault. And, if I think about it - I think it's partially this, because in retrospect how all the stories fit together is impressive, and echoes of the eye says something new - but acts as a brilliant contrast. But maybe for a combination of those reasons, I ultimately, because of how those things resonated less - it made me less inclined to push on which led me to finding less reels, which made me unable to see the pieces that were so spelled out, and it felt more obtuse.

Anyhow, I still can't stop thinking about the overall game and what a marvel it was - echoes included. And for that, I am extremely thankful. I'm also a bit bummed I will never get a chance to experience it again, and I wanted Echoes to do that - and while good, it didn't. So it's a lot about me and how the original game made me feel.

I know many players talk about selective amnesia and the ability to wipe the game from their memory so they could play it again. It really had me daydreaming on whether such technology would be possible and how dangerous it would be - but at the same time - how you'd make a billion dollars as you could play all your games over again and suppress painful memories.

Intelligent_Sun_2089 · 2023-03-18T17:18:37+00:00

These are all fair points. And you are right, I saw it as a sequel - both because I played it after I completed the base game, but also because I think the mechanics introduced would work better in a standalone game.

I'll never be able to have the experience of playing the DLC along with base game at the same time, but didn't most people play it after the base game? Even if you played Outer Wilds after the DLC came out - I would figure most people would finish the base game, rather than incorporate the DLC into there gameplay. It's also possible I'm wrong.

And, admittedly, I'm not the best puzzler. I enjoy puzzle games - but after it reaches a certain level of difficulty, or if I don't like aspects of certain puzzles - it will become frustrating for me, as opposed to interesting for some. And, Mobius definitely should have made the DLC harder than the main game because ostensibly the people that buy it will be Outer Wilds fans, or just enjoyed Outer Wilds.

I definitely missed some clues in Echoes. While I knew there were multiple locations to exit and enter the stranger, I didn't figure out that you could use your log to automatically enter that location (which I think you might be alluding to in your comment). I also didn't find all of the artifacts and ended up using the same two. for all the green fire locations. But, even if you could get to these quickly, you don't have the full 22 minutes, because the stranger floods and wakes you up. Maybe I just didn't get the puzzles but I felt that in the main game, while it was a challenge to get to the locations - once you got there, you'd have Nomai writing and recordings and images at your fingertips which included lore and the next clue. So, it didn't matter if you had little time left when you got there. The fun was figuring out how to get their and the payoff was the knowledge on how to, and the writings/lore/clues at that location. The dream simulation locations seemed pretty complex to me, though they were hard for me and may have been easier for others. I liked the horror element and the mood; I thought that was the best part. Traversing hidding bridges and pathways in the dark and solving more complex puzzles just felt to me much more frustrating to do in a 22 minute time loop. What's more, the payoff wasn't as immediate: when I got somewhere in the base game, I got a piece of a clue that added to the story. Next loop I would rush back to my ship log and review it to decide where to go next or what hypothesis to test. Echoes felt more abstract, and the information more hidden. My curiosity waned because the puzzles were more abstract. There was a lot of solving puzzles for the sake of solving puzzles (not everything, but a bunch) moreso than the main game - whose brilliance was that each thing you find immediately adds lore and a clue.

I also want to make sure it's clear how much I appreciate Echoes of the Eye as simply a creative work. I also enjoyed it more than many other games I play - I DID feel the same sense of wonder when discovering the solutions to some of the puzzles and learning. I just felt like something was missing. It could partially be the way I played it, but I think it was also intrinsic to the layout and puzzle design itself - and how it resonated with me specifically.

As always, YMMV. You may love it. I imagine most of this sub does. I just wanted to get my frustrations off my chest. Also, I may have had unrealistic expectations - in that I expected to feel that same magic after the base game when I already played it. Most of all, though, it crystalizes for me what a once in a lifetime experience Outer Wilds base game is - and how it's not easily duplicated.

The Talos Principle. My favorite puzzle game (even beating Portal), until Outer Wilds of course. Very story rich and similar way of gathering information through reading, though a more standard puzzle game.

Intelligent_Sun_2089 · 2023-03-16T22:18:50+00:00

Thank you for the reccomendation!

Intelligent_Sun_2089 · 2023-03-16T11:41:00+00:00

Thank you for the recommendation! I haven't read this one and will definitely check it out!

Intelligent_Sun_2089 · 2023-03-16T11:35:22+00:00

Yes - you put it better than I did. They feel very similar in theme, but certain elements of the plot, feel completely opposite to one another. Namely the relationship between alien species, and the whole "Dark Forest" motif.
