Outer Wilds is one of my favorite games, but I can see a lot of ways it isn’t for everyone.

Try a controller if you can, like others have mentioned.

It took me a long time to get used to the space navigation/flying and towards the end of the game I still sometimes crashed horribly into things. I feel like it’s kind of just part of the experience and can make for some really funny moments. If you really want to experience it yourself, maybe spending some time just focusing on getting a good understanding of the ship controls without the pressure of trying to get any exploration done that round might be helpful. Autopilot isn’t the smartest, but it can be helpful.

Watching play throughs is something I love to do now, because it is the closest I’ll ever get to experiencing the game fully again. Watching a play through before playing it yourself will basically spoil the chance ever experiencing it firsthand yourself, but might be a good option if you really want to know the story and don’t find any joy in playing it.

Edit: few changes for clarity

They seem to be great foot recovery shoes. I wore mine for like 6 months on and off in the house while my foot healed.

Love crocs. Wear them all the time. I don’t really care if other people think they are ugly. They are comfortable, so I wear them.

Pros: easy to clean, can be good rain/pool/beach shoes because it’s fine to get them wet, come in a lot of different styles and colors, easy to slip on and off, not too expensive

Cons: most people think they are ugly, they can squeak when wet, they shrink of left in direct sunlight

I have other shoes as well, but wear Crocs quite often. I injured my foot a while back and my podiatrist suggested wearing shoes around the house for additional cushion while my foot healed. Funny enough, when I asked what kind of shoes, he suggested Crocs.

Sailor Moon. It was on early in the morning and I’d get ready for school really fast so I could sit and watch it before running to catch the bus.

These are so much fun. The Christmas one is hilarious. I think the child’s crayon, prehistoric, Ukrainian, and Alien are my favorites.

No car/public transit was going to be my answer too. Sold my car about 9 years ago and switched to using the bus, carpool, or walking. At first it was a financial decision because I figured it would save me lots of money, and it did. I was surprised though how much more connected to the community I felt. I made friends and talked to people on my commute instead of sitting alone in the car. It also makes me feel more free to move around the city instead of just going from point A to point B and then home again.

Tea all the way. I’m super sensitive to caffeine, so I even have to switch to decaf tea after noon or I’ll be up all night.

Love using herbs from my garden for tea in the evenings - lavender, lemon balm, peppermint, chamomile

Me too!

Burp - I just can’t do it. Also whistle or roll my Rs

Detroit style. The crispy corner pieces!

The Long Dark. Hearing crows in the distance gives me the urge to go check to see if there’s any useful loot.

Breath of The Wild for me. The open world and exploration just blew me away. I wanted to just spend as much time as possible exploring that version of Hyrule.

Second is Majora’s Mask. It was so different than all the Zelda games before it and really dark. I loved the time element and really getting to know all the different npc characters.

Zelda/bullet hell sounds like an unlikely combination! I’ll have to look it up and check it out.

Fallout 4. Been wandering around the wasteland and helping settlements in need.
