It's been a year since I last played this game but suddenly it popped into my memory and I've been thinking about it for two days. That's how long it took for me to need to scratch the itch again. Time to add to my existing 37 hours of play time...
i got an ending i was pretty happy with on my 13th loop, and it was really beautiful i loved it (married esteban, friends with myka and suzette who married tereza).
but i discovered there were other possibilities, such as stopping the war from happening or becoming a scout with gemma… is there a walkthrough or something? i’m now on my 37th loop and i’ve stopped the war several times but i’m forced to go south every time. is there a way to stop the war while still staying in Elaia?
Well to give you some hints, it requires you to find out why the war happened to begin with. States don't exactly declare war for no reason at all, after all. And it would require fixing that issue.
As a hint on how to fix it, it involves understanding that Elaia's past has consequences to the present and a willingness to do what is good even if it's going to be treasonous.
i mean, i was able to stop the war many times, with some various people. i just keep getting forced to move south permanently because i had to do robbery and stuff for the relics to heal the south
Okay, go the Historian Route when you do your attempt to heal the South. Jo knows how to pull it off in a way that doesn't tip off anyone about the fact that artifacts got stolen until it is too late. It also helps with Sussie's issues so you won't have to worry about her causing an incident. You can still go South if you want, but you can definitely return home in this version.
Amazing game. I spent days taking various routes and meeting so many characters until I finally had all the information I needed and wanted for my desired outcome, and I finally did it, after around 20 loops, I managed to save everyone and it was the best feeling I've gotten from any game in years. The subtle changes in the scenes over all the loops and such were really good and I could truly feel our exhaustion weighing on us the longer we kept going, and I got to know so many of the characters and their personal troubles that made me really care about getting the best possible ending for all of their sake. I wonder how this all came to be in the first place, if Jo was truly the origin or if someone else passed on the duty to stop the comet like they did to us, either way, I am happy to have successfully helped everyone I could. What an amazing game.
IM GONNA SCREAMMM, YOU HAVE CAPTURED THE ESSENCE OF THE PUZZLE SOLVING IN OUTER WILDS AND PUT IT IN SOMETHING FRESH. plus it has a happier ending. (the one i got was anyway)
thank you for such a beautiful story and game. it makes me want to create again, write again, and just overall make something that moves people the way that this moved me. i dunno if you're still creating, but if you are, i'm looking forward to what's to come :) <3
amo questo gioco. ci penso ancora dopo tanti anni. ho raggiunto il mio finale perfetto con myka, e il file di salvataggio sta ancora sul mio desktop <3
loved this so much! 15 rounds, 4 AM to 6 AM and it was so worth it! also, are you ok with people posting fanart/fancomics of this game (with credit of course)?
