If you haven't played Outer Wilds yet, stop what you're doing and pick it up now:

Don't read anything about it, don't watch any videos about it, just jump in! If I could erase anything from my memory I would erase this game so I could experience the joy of discovering everything for the first time again.

Can confirm

Somehow couldn't get into the expansion (a lot of people seem to love it though) but the base game is probably one of the best gaming experiences I ever had

The amount of "oh shit" realisations in that game is just unmatched - especially given the seemingly "simple" setting

It took me a little while to get into the expansion, but once I was into it I had a similarly enjoyable time discovering everything new in it as well. Some great "oh shit" moments in it too! Give it another go if you can, you might get into it this time!
