In what I know is an unpopular opinion, I didn't enjoy Outer Wilds. I technically discovered almost everything I had to discover and was ready to try and trigger the ending when I DNF'd it.

I DID experience a couple of 'Eureka' moments, flying around was fun, the universe was pretty beautiful, but I just didn't have fun. Like, at all, really. I watched the ending on youtube and was glad I didn't finish it, because its terrible.

Slant magazine said the journey here is more reward than the destination, and I couldn't agree more, but the journey for me wasn't fun either.

A Masterfully made go-at-your-own-pace story-discovery game that isn't for everyone, including me.
