OUTER WILDS! If you've played it, you know why. (If you haven't, do not ask. Play it.)
I’ve tried to play this game twice. I get confused and have no idea what to do or where to go or what to do when I get there. Spent about 12 hours playing and just feel lost. And everytime I bring it up. People reccomend I just keep playing. And yet I’m still lost haha
That's surprising that you feel so lost. Did you perhaps miss the journal / discovery board in the back of your ship? Basically just need to look at that and try to flesh out any of the plot threads you see on there. Whenever one isn't progressing, take a break and try a totally different direction or just wander wherever you can for a cycle or two and you'll have stumbled on to some new leads probably.
Its pretty intentional that most players hit a stall around the middle because you have to start challenging things you THINK you know but haven't actually proven to be certain yet.
Discovery board?
Well. That makes things make a little more sense I had no idea about it. I just thought it was various ways to experience a death loop over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over
I just looked it up and it's actually called the Rumor Map apparently. It's pretty important to organize all the things you find in a loop and check yourself to see if there is more to uncover on some plot point.
If you get in your ship it's opposite the pilot seat. I'm sure it was pretty maddening to not have that tool and hear people say such high praise about the game lol.
If you haven't been spoiled on it, you might find the game a lot more enjoyable giving it another shot some day!
It hasn't been spoiled, no. Thank you!
