Finished the main game recently, liked it a lot, got the DLC, been going through that.

Ive explored a decent chunk of the overworld in The Stranger and the main lead i have now is to go into the dreamworld and find, I assume, the tablets used to seal the coffin. Ive found all 3 secret locations, but I dont get a whole lot of exploring done in the dreamworld before getting caught by the owl folk.

My game is extremely dark. I followed the recommended settings for the gamma and it is all the way down, so I can barely see a thing when I go into these places, even with the lantern. But focusing the lantern so I can actually see where I am going means I easily draw the attention of the owl folk. I could raise the gamma so I can see better in the dark, but that feels a bit like cheating to me.

So, what I wanna know is, is there an easier way to deal with the owl folk? Maybe stun them when they notice you, or distract them when they are nearby so they go somewhere else? I just want to know if there's an in-universe way to make it easier to get around that I have missed. If there isn't anything I guess ill just raise the gamma, cause i really cant see in the dark there.

You say this game can only be played once and has no replay value?

I've played this game about 2 years ago during the dark ages of my unemployment. I remember you have to align something something to open something then you go through some centrifuge to get the thing and then you put that thing into another thing on another planet then you get into the forest and end the game or something something.

Sound pathetic? WRONG!!!! IT'S PEAK! I literally remember 10% of the game barely. I can already see myself playing this masterpiece again in another 2 years, I just have to keep drinking and smoking weed, there's just this little funny tingly feeling on the left side of my upper chest and the lower side of my right, but WHO GIVES A FUCK I can get to play OUTER WILDS again SOON

WEEEEEEE

As the title says, I'm stuck on the dlc.

I accidentally discovered putting down the lantern and jumping off the raft before I even entered a vault.

I've been in vaults one and three, and the codes aren't there. I've been in the artefact testing place and I tried artifact two lol.

I have no "more to explore" things on my ship log and the only two question marks on the ship log (the weird coffin and the second vault).

Is there something that makes it worth going in the second vault because I don't need the second code, or is there somewhere I need to go?

Dont worry this is my replay of the game, i wanted to get all of the logs in the game and also get all achievements. I went to the observatory and read everything and also interacted with everything and now it is showing to explore more. I got the launch codes before this too. Did the game not register something or is there something mroe i forgot. And also this is a new profile so everything is fresh.

I’m trying to do stuff in the shrouded woodlands in the house full of the creatures that plays music. Every time I get inside, the music stops, the doors lock, and I’m inside but the dudes don’t attack me until I try to exit. Can I have some hints on what I’m supposed to do to get around them to the fireplace?? I’ve tried about 7-8 different times and I can’t for the life of me figure it out

I’m not done the DLC yet so pls no spoilers but I have a theory that TERRIFIES me to my core. Yall I just know that at some point I’m going to wake up from my green fire dream and all the decrepit whatever they ares aren’t going to be there 😭 the way this DLC has me absolutely obsessed!!

O

I’m interested in having a large-ish floor lamp made to look like Slate’s campfire. Doing an outer wilds theme for my living room. Any recommendations on where to find something like this would be appreciated. I’ve seen some smaller campfire lamps online but I’d like something bigger if it’s an option. Planning on getting a bunch of little stump floor mats for sitting around the campfire 🏕️ 🔥

I thought this was a cool comparison picture of a real life star about to go nova compared with the model that was used in the game. You can even see the roiling and bubbling of Betelgeuse, as well as the star dimming before it's end. Credit to the devs for making something seem out of this world, but also so close to fact.

I'll write it myself before you do... "Outer Wilds fans when supernova"

I'm speechless 🥺
