Let's Play Outer Wilds #44 The Other Ways the Story can End

[@K-o-R]

I mean if you want to _speedrun_ kicking the bucket, you can wake up and stand in the campfire... 20:40 Skyrim Horse *denied.*

[@SirusDiarota]

There are a few categories in this similar vein. Touch Fishie is getting to know the inhabitants of Dark Bramble *very closely*. There's also one called Bonk, which is catching something in space...with your face... I think there's also one for dying to gravity, the destroying space time one, and even one for the fire memes you suggested. Things get rather silly when you're stuck in a time loop and can't die... And there are so many creative ways too! Which is effectively why I can't play the game, due to the ending being spoiled to me literally as the first video on it I ever saw. But that being said, it's still an extremely unique game.

It's like to think the "end times" supernova music is the song that created that universe too, just like the new universe starts with banjo and whistling.

I want to know if Solanum has anything to say if you bring another object to the Quantum Moon and put it on one of the stacks of stones. "Hey, can you 'Identify' this?" "That's an advanced warp core. I remember Poke talking about trying to build one. Wait, what are you doing with it?"

You can also get yourself killed before meeting the statue by going and bathing in the ghost matter.

[@peterthomson7099]

Or just burning yourself up in the campfire.

[@42Genius42]

Speedrun WR at the start there? Nice one!

[@ICountFrom0]

If I could add an ending, I'd teleport the ship to the coordinates given for the last great convocation of the Nomai. Given that we HAVE the eye coordinates, and they have other warp cores, it would be simple for any of them to go remake the universe...

[@ayontole9320]

What about the Broom Closet Ending?

[@namelesslight4509]

5:40 I think you should be able to reach the Eye without the Vessel. if the probe can reach it so should our ship, the Eye is orbiting the sun (and you see this system's sun from the Eye too), but technically it's not doable in-game because when you go certain distance away from the sun autopilot kicks in returning you back into the solar system and also the Eye is located in a entirely different map within game files (when you teleport the Vessel it goes to another map), so Eye doesn't even exist on the map we're on 6:44 Also I just noticed an inconsistency. Because of the vastness of space we shouldn't be able to see all stars goin out at once because it should take light far more time to travel from all those far away galaxies. If we see it going out so fast it might mean we'd be able to reach them on our ship, which is indirectly contradicted by the nomai's warp technology (one needs to warp only because it'd take too long to travel from one star system to another, otherwise we'd be left to assume they invented this tech for the sole purpose of pursuing quantum objects, which from the way they talk about it they seem to discover it for the first time when arriving in Hearthian solar system). Unless it's not an oversight and they implemented "The big crunch" into the universe's death (collapse of space everse motion from the Big Bang expansion), which is pretty clever 23:03 that's a pretty loose interpretation of "survival" :d I had my own idea of an ending. When I first arrived at the Vessel, reading the nomai board with messages I first thing I thought of as "normal ending" for this game (it was before I realized all the intricacies about the Eye and the universe\sun) was that you should be able to warp Escall's Vessel to the last stable star system the nomai mention - the Gloaming Galaxy\Blackrock’s suns star system maybe tell as much hearthians as possible to pack their stuff and quickly hop on board and possibly surviving? (even at the last moment of the non-Eye ending not all the stars are snuffed out, so maybe it will last? maybe not) and I thought of Eye as a "gamble everything just to learn wtf is up with that nomai mystery", but it seems like a little wasteful of 1 chance to warp anywhere and let everything get destroyed

[@bryanbradford2829]

The developers considered the fact that you shouldn’t see all of the stars go out, because of the speed of light. Then they said, “Screw it, it looks cool.”

[@yoshiakijkoga]

Or simply put that star is last to go out.

[@peterthomson7099]

AHAHA, just saw the EXTRA extra video, you did go and see the ....other ending. There is a cool easter egg related to the Ash Twin Project that you should check out, off camera if you like ;) Looking forward to the Fate of Atlantis, it's a goodie :)

[@Kikoskia]

Worry not, I know what you're referring to. As for missing two endings, that is not the case. I have only missed one as you'll soon see.

[@peterthomson7099]

@@Kikoskia All good, I've edited my original comment. The other ending is actually the same ending, just a longer and more convoluted way to get it (but like everything else in this near perfect game, makes total logical sense) Thank you for the playthrough ::)

[@videogamefangirl5905]

somehow i myself like the happy ending best 🙂
