  I have good news and bad news.<br><br>Good news is that people seem to love the video which is great because I loved making it!<br><br>Bad news is that this will most likely be the last Outer Wilds video I make. I would love to make more but honestly I’m not sure what else I could do. I did this video which covers basically the whole story, and the iceberg which covers almost everything outside of the story. And while that is sad news I’m super proud of both these videos and I hope you will continue to stick with me as I make videos similar to this one for other games you love. ::)

  I can&apos;t remember where i saw the comment, but it was something like:<br><br>1 eye called out<br>2 eyes tried to hide it<br>3 eyes tried to find it, and<br>4 eyes managed to unbind it...

  My theory is that the signal you hear from the eye of the universe is the music that the previous universe&apos;s people played similar to how the hearthians (and guests) play outer wilds ventures around the campfire at the end of the game. That would also imply that in the next universe, people would hear the sound of outer wilds ventures coming from the eye

  I love the idea that the owl guys technology is good enough to store consciousness onto a computer, but they hadn’t got as far as full motion video

  My first run, I died to the Geyser in Hearthian because I wanted to see if there was fall damage. My second run, I went straight to Dark Bramble because Hornfels specifically told me not to and I died to the anglerfish. My third run, I flew into the sun just to see if there was a death message. My FOURTH run, I went to Ash Twin and stood in the teleporter to Ember Twin. I was looking at something on my phone((didn&apos;t know there was a 22 minute timer yet)) and I wanted to see what the planet looked like without any ash at all. So I was chilling, then I saw the broken window right before the ash pillar passed and thought, &quot;Oh, that&apos;ll kill me. I should go to the other room&quot; so I did. Went down to where the writing was in there. Crazy how VERY close I was to stumbling onto the steps of the beginning of the end without knowing <b>anything</b> about the game. I&apos;m talking about another second or 2 in that room and I would have been so incredibly, terribly confused. 11/10 game.

  I love that the nomai were so advanced that once they checked their equipment was functioning correctly, the only explanation was that the eye was no longer broadcasting its signal. That&apos;s how sure they were of their tech

  The reason timber hearth was protected from ghost matter is because when there is water present, ghost matter doesnt work the same as other does in the air. Hearthians descended from tadpole like creatures that the nomai discovered. This also means you can walk through ghost matter if it is submerged underwater.

  Every time I&apos;m reminded of this game I get emotional. Can&apos;t believe how great of a job they did on such a &quot;small&quot; scale game (still a ton of work obviously went into it). Even just hearing the banjo line gets me.

  Gods almighty, that voice-acted recording of Escall&apos;s Folly (<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7eda0SGS0O8&amp;t=1440">24:00</a>) is absolutely heartbreaking. I lejit got choked up hearing it and remembering the first time I read the scroll walls inside the Vessel for the first time, putting myself inside the Nomais&apos; heads as their home collapsed around them without warning, with no way to fix it or call for help. 100/10 video.
