Emotional Journey Through the Outer Wilds - MasterChefStirx's Supercut

A very emotional journey through the Outer Wilds.
He is still playing through Echoes of the Eye, check out his channel for new posts!
His videos had some very cool outro's, some of the more cinematic shots here are taken from those. Make sure to check them out if you have the time ::)
Echoes of the Eye, and the end, supercut here: [coming soon-ish]

[@masterchefstirx]

Thank you, Eelis. Genuinely. I made a passing comment a few months ago about how 'if I ever got a Supercut...' Stay kind, everyone!

[@THExRISER]

Haven't watched this yet but I already know this is gonna be great.

[@masterchefstirx]

@@THExRISER it's weird seeing the early episodes again xD

[@mr.yuriinspector347]

can't wait to finish this and watch your echoes of the eye videos, good stuff mate glad you're enjoying outer wilds!

[@Piokoxer]

I'm disappointed I couldn't snipe first on this supercut like i try with all your vids lol

[@masterchefstirx]

@@Piokoxer you’ve got a few extra people to contend with Pio 😉

Well everyone, welcome back to the monthly meeting of the Outer Wilds support group.

I am here to cry again.

Hello, I'm Danny, and I'm an Outer Wilds fan. It's been 0 seconds since my last supercut.

[@Regulith]

@@dannybrase1253 (in unison) Hi Danny!

[@HarrHarrHarrify]

Aah yes, the classic "they are blind I should turn off the light"

[@idlevillager3763]

Honestly, Eelis should just make some fun compilations of funniest common mistakes

[@RevenantMain1]

Truly a Feldsparian escape method

[@quest9905]

I love how many small things like this are just incredibly common to see repeated across many different playthroughs.

[@StegoAqua]

It's like a glitch in the human condition

[@gabedamien]

@@StegoAqua yeah, it's a very nice example of how our brains take common cognitive shortcuts which don't always work correctly. "Blind = no see = don't let them see me"

[@danielhenze8182]

Oh boy, he’s keeping track of the names

[@davidsphere43]

The moment they start remembering names, you just know the ending will destroy them

[@OutbackCatgirl]

emotional damage

[@benji2014]

1:27:40 “did one survive? who survived?” as the quantum moon floats past, lol.

[@PaDelRu]

1:47:20 The way he clips his ship and spins allowing him to see the angler that's chasing him as he gets away... That could not have been scripted better.

[@JohnDeerest]

him being on the verge of tears and then saying "it looks like quantum cheese 🥺" nearly killed me

[@Ottosbigtop]

I’ve never been more excited to see a person get to finally meet Solanum on the quantum moon. Find you someone who loves you like this guy loves the nomai

[@runelt99]

The second player I have seen that went to sun station and had 'time until station is destroyed: now lmao'

[@snowfloofcathug]

A friend of mine who streams didn’t have Pause While Reading enabled and started reading with less than 5 seconds left, it was amazing to witness

[@runelt99]

@@snowfloofcathug Imo there is more horror to the pause. You have time to look at it and go 'oh no' and know that you dying is a result of unpausing. Kinda reminds me of that one trap in fallout new vegas where there is a trapped door, one that disabled makes player see the chest, which takes all focus to miss the subtle wire trap. The moment when you open the chest and hear triggering the grenades is glorious.

[@GojiruMaximus]

"Is this...*proceeds to correctly guess whats going on*" Very clever playthrough. Enjoying it a lot!

[@carboxyde3770]

1:36:41 Wow, you can actually see the moment he realizes that the third mask is not a living nomaï, and his heart is crushed

[@haunter6682]

It's literally that meme: new player at the computer, playing the game, crying old player behind their back, pointing the finger at them, laughing and also crying

[@thegamingsheep2471]

This is the most emotional playthrough I have ever seen. This is a perfect viewing experience for those of us who played the game, but didn't "feel it" enough

[@SirButcher]

Check out BeccaBytes's playthrought too, she is amazing.

[@hunterxgirl]

It's an honor to see someone else have similar sympathy and compassion to the story. The closest thing to breaking the existential loneliness

[@Trencha]

I think this is the first time I've seen a first time player successfully repair a broken reactor.

[@kacpergryba2307]

Thank you Eelis for all the great contributions to the outer wilds community.

[@Liam-vq7rz]

"What's the deal with Chert? and why are they like this?" LMAO

[@user-sh7md4nx3j]

SO WHEN YOU GO TO GABBRO RIGHT AFTER THE FIRST LOOP ENDED HIS DIALOGUE IS DIFFERENT??? i've watched a lot of these supercuts and played a lot in this game, but like what the heck. even now this game can surprise me

[@def2020]

Well, its lore accurate

[@user-sh7md4nx3j]

@@def2020 yeah, but amount of small details in this game is wild

[@ryankoski2499]

Yup, gabbro has 3 different “first visit” dialogues depending on when you first talk. Loop 1 there’s no mention of death, Loop 2 they say “died” and Loop 3+ they say “dying repeatedly” ::)

[@user-sh7md4nx3j]

@@ryankoski2499 this game is the goat

[@ReverendTed]

@@ryankoski2499 And his dialogue changes on subsequent visits as well. A very helpful game mechanic is only available that way, in fact.

[@punpundit5590]

I really like the moment around 1:28:00 where he wonders if there's a living Nomai, and who that could be, while the Quantum Moon is on screen.

[@SmilingGirl95]

What an HORRIBLE way of finishing this video!😢 I just want to give him a hug 🥺

[@Piokoxer]

this is one of the greats of OW playthroughs, glad to see it featured here

[@TabbyVee]

im incredibly impressed by how much he got done in just two loops, like wow

[@Imperial_Squid]

"Did Feldspar crash?" hilarious that "crashes: 4 boring crashes: 0" was written by Feldspar but could also apply to the Nomai (1 for the vessel, 3 for the escape pods)

[@chubbydumpling5694]

1:45:41 "These are all new people, this is fantastic!" is such a sad statement when you know what they're going to find :( Absolutely love how much they connected with the Nomai, despite knowing their fate. It's exactly how I feel when watching other playthroughs, showing how much life the writers put into this long-deceased civilization.

[@madladradahn1633]

That ending T_T E M O T I O N A L D A M A G E

[@xbomb87]

That editing at 2:06:32 is like the halfway point of each Lord of the Rings DVD

[@nicu.1871]

1:47:20 very nearly pulled a feldspar there😂😂😂

[@sajhino]

Definitely a pro gamer move

[@MasterCrander]

That spin slip combo was AWESOME. 0 boring crashes stat: Upheld. It was like a runner spinning off a blocker in gridiron, so pro. Absolutely doing Feldspar proud

[@Sheamu5]

The unintentional spin was very cinematic, to see the jaws right behind him ::D

[@Sheamu5]

Oh man that was a brutal cliffhanger. This has been a great playthrough, and it's nice seeing someone else that is as emotional as I am with this game.

[@uiytt8497]

23:31 LMAO first time I'm seeing this

[@runelt99]

Outer wilds watchers... Assemble, the new supercut is out!

[@michaelholme93]

I'm super excited for the rest of his playthrough! I really enjoyed your inbetween shots of the places, like the Sun Station being enveloped into the sun. Those were amazing perspectives!

[@AintYourChannel]

I utterly adore the small intermissions in this one. They add so much!

[@LuxurioMusic]

This's been one of my favourite playtrhoughs, and now I'm watching it again in supercut form!

[@semi_automatico]

The ending hits like a truck

[@finleymorris04]

I love that final shot of Solanum

[@ryankoski2499]

Yo I’m so glad you made a super cut for Stirx ::) can’t wait for the finale after the DLC

[@MinicFilip]

2:06:37 I laughed out loud when he started crying when he saw dead Solanum and you did a dramatic super close up of the body

[@Sheamu5]

That's how Stirx edited it, depending on the episode he ends with a discussion of what he's thinking, or a cinematic shot like that.

[@dashanerocket]

Ha! I was just thinking yesterday, "man, I could really use another Outer Wilds supercut right now." Thanks, Eelis, for your incredible work.

[@engilaru]

Never have I seen such a genuine connection and care for the Nomai by a player, and thus the fear of Strix not reaching the end of the quantum moon before removing the core was terrifying. I'm so glad he did in the end, now I subscribe to you both as I am invested in this playthrough.

[@Matticusjk]

Definitely recommend his channel! Each episode is one loop and a joy to follow

[@MechaSkeleton]

Man, that ending was truly tragic

[@vaap]

oh my GOD love this one so much... im now following their echoes of the eye playthrough and i love what u did with including the camera stills they use at the end of their episodes cus its GORGEOUS

[@KuronekoSleep]

Thank you again eelis! You are a gem of this community

[@qqm63r]

1:47:02 that was _cinematic_ And big thanks to you @Eelis for putting these together

44:46 perfect villiager noise

[@kruai453]

Fantastic playthrough, and fantastic supercut. Thanks as always!

[@lt_rainbowslash58]

I've never see anyone get so attached to the Nomai. Even for me and my big heart, there was always a slight detachment because I knew they were all long dead.

[@mcmuffin55555]

Eelis, you rule. I have found so many great content creators through you! AboutOliver has become a mainstay on my feed, and I think MasterChef will join!

[@SangheiliSpecOp]

YES thank you Eelis. This game and these supercuts fuel me, they give me life

[@user-fe3bk8ql6d]

Thank you, Eelis. for allowing me to experience this wonderful journey again and again.

[@linkypete]

I'm really glad he enjoyed this playthrough. I watched the first few full episodes of his playthrough, but got frustrated at the commenters telling him what to do better for the next one. He was reading and responding to comments, and tended to be too keen on just doing whatever commenters told him to instead of setting boundaries

[@linnilotus]

Oh yay another creator that’s now been put on my radar, heading over to scope out more of their stuff now

[@PedroHenrique-yx2zj]

Thanks for the monthly dose of second hand first time experience

Man, Stirx really flew the sun station jump easily. It's a nice change of pace! XD

[@beefarren]

Damn Eelis, you're really getting good at this editing thing. This one is some of your best work yet!

[@DonNinja05]

I've gotta say, he's so wonderfully emotional and unapologetic about it. Love seeing men being openly emotional about stuff ::)

The rare gabbro on loop 2 convo

[@reflectingPastChoices]

"This is all new people" Hahaha.... Oh no.

[@Ankarua]

21:36 "I'm just a linguist". I always find it interesting when people assume things based on the associative property. Your best friend is a linguist, therefore your character must be one, even though there's never any mention of it lol. If the main character was a linguist, your friend wouldn't have spent most of his life translating Nomai and making a translation tool. Yer an' astronaut and a pilot, Harry!

[@The_TinesJathian]

yeah I always think of the protagonist as being an anthropologist or sociologist. That would explain why they work with Hal so closely. (beyond just being besties.) We know that Feldspar is an explorer, Gabbro is a physicist of some sort, Riebeck is an archeologist, and chert is an astronomer, so the role of anthropologist is one that isn't technically held yet. Additionally, it'd make a lot of sense for someone studying the interactions between members of a civilization to be the first one equipped with a translator tool.

[@taanwallbanks9841]

Well to be fair you made the translator together.

[@NnT042]

@@taanwallbanks9841 I always read "built it together" as "Hal decoded the language and stuffed it into a digital algorithm, Hatchling engineered the scanning and display gizmos from being such a space program nerd that they are on top of all current tech" (both the ones being invented and the ones brought back from planet expeditions)

[@taanwallbanks9841]

@@NnT042 oh 100% - hal is definitely the linguist as shown in Echoes, but I was just pointing out that the hatchling is more than the pilot, they might be a tinkerer/inventor for example

Anytime I saw literally anything to do with echos of the eyes I panicked.

[@thatguy2757]

Please dont stop making these supercuts you are frl doing the lords work

[@ChristopherCraven]

A really good playthrough

[@prototane]

Oh my lord you are spoiling us! Crazy of you to release another supercut barely a week after the last one. We dont deserve you

[@DavidCornell1]

Well, I know what I’m doing this afternoon! You probably have a list of future supercuts to make… but I would highly recommend Symbalily’s playthrough! Super cozy, intelligent but also emotional

[@TeamCrawfordSmith]

at 1:27:38 I lolled at him pondering a deep question while the answer orbits in front of his face.

[@danielhenze8182]

YESSSSSSS YESSSSS YESSSS YESSSS. Thank you Eelis

[@gemstonegynoid7475]

You people think the probe tracking module hint should be clearer?many people are confused where it is, but then the computer simply says it is underwater

[@Starmarack]

I think the ship log should mention the sphere of electricity, not the water. I literally can't tell from the projection pool that it's underwater.

[@gemstonegynoid7475]

@Starmarack that's good. There are few places where electricity is important, so people should connect that hint to the core of giants deep more naturally.

[@synka5922]

the only crisis I have is that I cant play this game for the first time again so I gotta watch more of these

[@becketclark9942]

Hey Eelis- thanks for another well-cut, inspiring comp. Ending was particularly touching on this one. I was wondering, are there any outer wilds playthroughs in your memory where someone stumbles into the DLC early / on accident?

[@THExRISER]

Well, here we go again.

Will you be making a second video for the rest of his journey?

[@cabbagefaerie]

that ending was SO RUDE

[@mrpython3485]

I've never figured this out. How do you pronounce Eelis?

[@Blirre]

I don't know their nationality, but could be something North European. If so, the e is pronounced the same as the e in _end._ The e might be an elongated sound, similar to _ma'am_ as it's a double vowel. Double e's are usually hard for English speakers.

[@kuroser353]

NEW SUPERCUT LET'S FUCKING GOOO

[@KabraxisOblivion]

2:11 lol

[@CODENAMEDERPY]

It's too bad that he didn't break reality.

[@JibmotheHibmo]

Don't worry!! Stirx is still playing the game, this cut just came early. The content plan as it stands is that he's playing through the DLC and then will play the ending of the game after both storylines are otherwise complete. The ending is still coming!!

[@KhufuhK]

Where DLC

[@jj-si8tm]

He just finished the Dlc on his channel and there is gonna be one last video left(the ending). I think there is also gonna be a dlc comliations after he finishes the game
