       Finished Outer Wilds today. By the end I was kind of relieved to be done with it, it was risking overstaying its welcome just a bit, but then it wrapped up nicely.Really enjoyed it but there's an interesting and, perhaps, unfortunate tension with the game.The vibes of OW are super chill. Relaxed exploration as you uncover the history of an ancient civilisation. Your friends rest at literal campfires, find each other through music across outer space.But the gameplay disagrees [+1]

       While the game is not super action heavy, it does impose some frustrating time constraints in a number of places. These can fell smothering and frustrating, turning your exploration into a lot of expletives as you wrangle floaty physics and mazey environments to "JUST LET ME GET TO THE DANG PLACE IN TIME!"There's also some jank in a couple of places which contributed to that frustration needlessly tooOverall still solid, do recommend it
