A Thing I’ve played 01/2026: Outer Wilds: Echoes of the Eye (DLC)
This one is… difficult. I love the story, and how it broadens and contextualizes the story of the main game. I adore the location, which as a singular place works well to integrate it in the setting, but leads to a lot of “same way backtracking”. I hate the spatial puzzles, but all of them can be cheesed into nonexistence (even without looking anything up, the things you need to add up are there but not obvious).
What still bugs me most is that one very important information was conveyed so convoluted that I did not catch it, and that massively derailed my playthrough.
Is it a good DLC? Yes.
Is it as great as the base game? No, but your mileage may vary.
Since then I’ve done some achievement hunting, and there’s mostly only those left that require actual piloting skills xD
Addendum by LaterSjut: I have since 100%ed the achievements, and while two of the DLC ones require more luck than I’d like it was an interesting ride. I’ve also watched as of now most of the endings, just for the fun of it, and this little bit of clearing up is indeed fun.
