Took me a while to get into the groove but once I got there I fell in love with this game again and it was very groovy (hurhurhurhurrr). If you wanna be the first to see the vids, I'm livestreaming the whole DLC on twitch! www.twitch.tv/helloitskolo
If you have issues using complex controls on a controller, I'm not going to recommend you play it, but you might get something out of watching a let's play (or 40+, like me 😉) of Death Stranding. Where Outer Wilds lets you figure out clues along the way, in Death Stranding it all remains a confusing mess until the very end where it all comes together. Be advised though, that while it does deliver a philosophical point, it does so through Kafkaesque storytelling (confusing and obfuscated) and certainly not everybody's cup of tea. It's also slow paced and chill, and ridiculously beautiful in every way imaginable - and then some. While the initial "what the hell is this confusing mess of a world" gets explained fairly quickly, the two main mysteries that the player is guided through will come together at the end. There is also a third mystery player gets tons and tons of clues to, but you never actually get the mystery handed over to you from the game, it's up to the player to discover it. So no player will spot it during the first let's play or watching. Two let's plays I can recommend are Mapocolops (die hard Kojima fan, which helps, and it's also the directors cut version with added content) and Mad Matt Lugos. Plenty others, but playing original versions.
I just love the way you fully embrace the spirit of this game - just exploring whatever you fancy, and letting the discoveries happen at their own pace. And then it's such a joyful thing when you *do* discover something. What a masterpiece this game is!
The talk about the best bits is so true. Cuz even I'm used to seeing all the best moments, I automatically started editing my videos like that. It can be a bit of an overload though, only seeing the hype moments (in games and reactions). I want to show my authentic self more.
The good thing about showing your true self to people online is that you quickly learn about whose opinions you don't need to care. And it's always the ones who rather want you pretend to be someone else, someone they want you to be, instead of who you actually are.
I'm so, so glad that you were able to make it work and play the DLC. (Heck yeah, accessibility!) Welcome back, and I'm looking forward to another long series of Kolo Way plays, hours of overthinking, and huge emotional moments! 💓
39:51 I have an auditory processing disorder, so it's immensely helpful to be able to pause and/or go back 5 or 10 seconds in a youtube video, which I can't really do on a livestream. Thanks for the content kolo!
I'm glad the videos are helping! Just fyi, there are also VODs of all the episodes available on Twitch, so watching things live isn't the only option there either.
One thing I was super surprised with when I played the DLC was the sheer SIZE of it, like it's almost as long as the base game Loved your first Outer Wilds playthrough, super happy you're back to it!!!!!
Glad to be able to watch your Outer Wilds playthrough live this time around! This DLC is such a treat, enjoy the head-scratching discoveries and wild theorizing!
Kolo's stream of the Outer Wilds was so amazing and so moving. I was super disappointed that she didn't have the DLC uploaded to UA-cam. I figured it was streamed only. I'm so happy to see it's finally arrived. I shall be watching each upload immediately.
OMG you are back ! Whenever I watch your videos, I wonder, why does UA-cam have a like button, but not a love button! Played the DLC last year, loved it ! And now I am back for some more !
I'm sorry UA-cam is so anxiety-inducing for you, but I'm very grateful for the effort! I tried to join you on Twitch more often (as scatterthewords), but I've got too many ethical issues with Amazon and it felt icky to be there. I know I don’t comment much but I watch all your videos and I'm grateful for the vibe you set and the info you share!
You were one of the first Outer Wilds playthroughs I watched, and I can't believe it started back in 2020. Feels so long ago, but I'm so excited for your journey!
oooooohhh i'm so happy you got to play the dlc 😭 so glad that you get to experience a bit more of this wonderful game. it's my favorite too. can't wait to watch everything!!
Just had to pause and say I actually had a bit of a happy cry dance in my seat when I saw a new upload from you. All the warm and fuzzies in my heart place. I'm so glad you got this going and are back and loving it all over again. Oh, and this music is absolutely magical. I can understand why you have it on vinyl! OK seriously going to keep watching now.
Oh hey, it's you! I didn't realize you played through Echoes of the Eye, can't believe I missed it! Yours was one of the first Outer Wilds playthroughs I watched, and I enjoyed it so much! I'm excited to revisit Echoes of the Eye with you. Thank you so much for sharing your journeys with us. :)
Yeah, I think UA-cam expects mostly like curated content. Personally, I prefer UA-cam over Twitch because it stresses me out to not be able to pause, haha. There are a lot of wonderful folks on Twitch (I don't use it much but I just went and followed you there just in case!) but it doesn't really work for me, so I'm very grateful that you and others put your streams on UA-cam for me to watch. 💙
Official non-official death counter! SPOILERS! (Duh) Before this episode: 0, obviously. During this episode: 7 24:07 - Survived longer than Ep1 of the base game! (Not a death) 31:31 - EndTimes.mp3 remains my favourite song in a video game. (Supernova/Deep Space) 33:16 - The rollercoaster of emotions "Nostalgia!" "Still a talented gamer." "Up!" "Down!" "Up!" "Dead." (Blunt Force Trauma/Timber Hearth) 1:00:18 - Wow that speed reading! So what have we learned? No idea, but nice seeing you again Gabs! (Supernova/Giant's Deep) 1:24:30 - Kolo ran out of fuel? Say it ain't so! Oh well, let's embrace our eventual demise together, shall we? (Supernova/Deep Space) 1:47:57 - Another sunset in space... (Supernova/Deep Space) 1:57:40 - Don't worry about her oxygen, guys. (Asphyxiation/Deep Space) [4 loops ended early without a death] 2:48:08 - That DOES look gorgeous! (Supernova/Timber Hearth) Total so far: 7 Causes of Death: Supernova x5 Blunt Force Trauma x1 Asphyxiation x1 Locations: Deep Space x4 Timber Hearth x2 Giant's Deep x1
Such annoying timing with the loop ending just as you went to speak to Gabbro. I was convinced that you were finally going to learn the meditation option. I'm pretty sure you would have if you'd had time to read all the options. It kills me every time the pause menu comes up and there are only three options there 😂
…But you do already edit YT for the best bits 🤔 you always remove the parts where you go on a break. That's the edit. The best bits are the ones where you are on the screen.

" _but when the world needed her most, she returned_ "
*Turns off auto pilot during the slow down part*
"Engaging auto pilot...doesn't really work for this one."
Very happy to see you play the DLC Kolo!
Edit from 2:10:40
Autopilot doesn't hit it. It stops you before you hit it. The only reason you hit it is because you're turning autopilot off.
I just love the way you fully embrace the spirit of this game - just exploring whatever you fancy, and letting the discoveries happen at their own pace. And then it's such a joyful thing when you *do* discover something. What a masterpiece this game is!

Ahhh you know me so well 😂 ready to play this game with ALL OF MY EMOTIONS 🚀

Loved your first Outer Wilds playthrough, super happy you're back to it!!!!!
Did not know you played this and my brain has been completely drained of your vanilla playthrough.
HECK YES!
I DIDN'T THINK THE DAY WOULD COME OMG THANKS!
Thank you for your perseverance to make this playthrough possible!
Thank you for being here with me!
Glad to be able to watch your Outer Wilds playthrough live this time around! This DLC is such a treat, enjoy the head-scratching discoveries and wild theorizing!

Kolo's joy at getting back into this game is contagious.
OMG you are back ! Whenever I watch your videos, I wonder, why does UA-cam have a like button, but not a love button! Played the DLC last year, loved it ! And now I am back for some more !
Welcome back!!❤️
No kidding, I just finished watching your base game playtrough and now you upload this, I am going to watch every episode!
It'll be worth it! I've just seen Outer Wilds so much that I know the map and planets by heart, even the spots the Quantum moon goes I know.
I'm sorry UA-cam is so anxiety-inducing for you, but I'm very grateful for the effort! I tried to join you on Twitch more often (as scatterthewords), but I've got too many ethical issues with Amazon and it felt icky to be there.

Thankfully she doesn't trust the Auto-Pilot, which just gives us more time with Kolo xD
Ohhh lovely seing you back! ❤
Yay!
I requested this game on your google form some time ago, and glad to see you're back and playing it now.
You were one of the first Outer Wilds playthroughs I watched, and I can't believe it started back in 2020. Feels so long ago, but I'm so excited for your journey!
My partner and I have been waiting for this
I was so happy to see this show up for me to watch. I miss your Twitch streams. Became hard to watch live because of my schedule.
oooooohhh i'm so happy you got to play the dlc 😭 so glad that you get to experience a bit more of this wonderful game. it's my favorite too. can't wait to watch everything!!
Thank you for keeping the complete Kolo experience for us vod frogs!
Just had to pause and say I actually had a bit of a happy cry dance in my seat when I saw a new upload from you. All the warm and fuzzies in my heart place. I'm so glad you got this going and are back and loving it all over again. Oh, and this music is absolutely magical. I can understand why you have it on vinyl! OK seriously going to keep watching now.
Thank you so much for this lovely lovely comment, and thank you for being along for the ride with us ♥
Heck yes I’m excited! It’s funny because if you play the base game before this dlc, you know exactly where to go
I’VE BEEN HOPING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG! Your main playthrough is my favorite!
If I could, I would definitely have put thousands of likes to your videos. Welcome back Kolo! YT really lacked your awesome energy. Way to go! ❤
I am so happy so see you're back in this wonderful world! Have fun and enjoy the ride! ::)
Been waiting patiently for this! Thanks for coming back for one final trip round the solar system!
EtherDragon9 here, I'm so excited to see the DLC being played by Kolo! I'm binging this playthrough... :D
Oh hey, it's you! I didn't realize you played through Echoes of the Eye, can't believe I missed it! Yours was one of the first Outer Wilds playthroughs I watched, and I enjoyed it so much! I'm excited to revisit Echoes of the Eye with you. Thank you so much for sharing your journeys with us. :)
Welcome back love! Good to see you again!
I'm so love your emotionality! So glad to see you're back =)
Kolo!!
Hi, great stuff, and I would be remiss not to mention, Sable, another otherworldly place for you to explore. Music is amazing to boot.

Very glad to see you back!

A very systematic approach.
So happy that you're playing the DLC 😍
But WHY do you keep aborting the autopilot? 😂
I didn't trust it 😂
But I have learned!!
Welcome back to YT. 🤗
Well hello .nice to see you back

Go Kolo !!

Lots of tongue biting for chat, I am sure in these first hours. ;-) Oh my.
would you look at that, you are back.
Hi Back, I'm Dad
Hi Dad, I'm back
New phone, who dis ?
hehehe... new phone and same inability to navigate who dis 😂
Such annoying timing with the loop ending just as you went to speak to Gabbro. I was convinced that you were finally going to learn the meditation option. I'm pretty sure you would have if you'd had time to read all the options. It kills me every time the pause menu comes up and there are only three options there 😂
one year without sharing a video on youtube :((((((((
…But you do already edit YT for the best bits 🤔 you always remove the parts where you go on a break. That's the edit. The best bits are the ones where you are on the screen.
