I’ve introduced three people so far to outer wilds, and each one has had their own experience with it. I think only one truly enjoyed it, while the other two (I love them to death but they are) snobs turned their noses up at it because a game to them means entertaining in the same way counterstrike or call of duty does.

I think I would rate it in my top 10, possibly even top 5 if there wasn’t a great deal of nostalgia for some games, but definitely consider (as a warning to folks [who probably are not patient gamer’s core, but still]) the game’s tone/gameplay before trying.
