I LOVE Outer Wilds, and I did really loved this DLC, it builds up on the already established lore without messing anything up, it presents new mechanics and aspects that makes you think in a different manner and awesome visuals and worldbuilding.

But I can't let the bad parts of this DLC alone... As soon as the "horror" part of the DLC started I was getting more and more frustrating, for a game that is heavily about you discovering the lore and mysteries of this world, this sections feel really frustrating, I do love the horror aspect and it gave me chills for the most part, but when I needed to repeat the same sections again and again because they're ridiculously hard I started to get frustrated, not just because it's hard, but because it took me away from the main thing of this game, discovering... I really think this DLC would benefit from a little more fairness in those parts, they were just too annoying for me.

But don't get me wrong, this is still and AMAZING DLC for anyone that loves Outer Wilds, and even with those missteps I truly loved basically everything here, this is how you do a expansion right, if you're reluctant about buying this, trust me, if you liked the main game you'll have a blast with this!

(and as the devs said that this would be the one and only DLC for Outer Wilds I can't wait to see their next game, I don't want, or think it'll happen, a Outer Wilds 2, but whatever these guys will do I'll be there to watch, or play I guess xD)
