Summary Outer Wilds ending is a bit weird. The ending of Outer Wilds is a long sequence of surprising and on the surface random events strung together. There is obviously a lot going on during Outer Wilds ending, but it is difficult to put the finger onto the subtext. So when I sat down and started to write this Outer Wilds retrospective I set myself a simple goal. I wanted to figure out an interpretation of the ending of Outer Wilds that I myself found logical and fitting. And this formidable honest goal - sent me down a pretty deep rabbit hole. It took me weeks of research to come up with an interpretation of Outer Wilds ending that I found satisfying. An interpretation of the ending that carries a surprisingly beautiful and philosophical message about freedom and about choice. In this video, we are going to dig up this message piece by piece. We will discuss the premise of Outer Wilds, recap its story and main mysteries, talk about the actual science that inspired the games mechanics, have a chat about core ideas of existentialist philosophy and in the end, we will hopefully combine all the different pieces into a cohesive whole - that allows us to understand the message that is hidden within the subtext of Outer Wild's ending.
