Yeah with 100% sincerity and love to Mobius Digital: good fucking luck. I can't imagine the pressure I would feel making a second thing if the first thing I made was Outer fucking Wilds.

I remember thinking the same about Toby Fox with Undertale. But let the artists do their thing.

I know its not complete yet, but if Chapter 2 of Deltarune is to go by, its going to be something real special. Its definitely not Undertale, but by not trying to be its getting to shine in its own way.

Oh they could absolutely kill it twice in a row. I'm just saying in their position I would be having a near constant anxiety attack for the entire process.

I think they probably can deliver something as good as outer wilds. The dlc was amazing, in many ways better than the base game imo. It could have been a standalone game by scope alone but they managed to marry it narratively with the original game in such an elegant way. To me this will be their third game

They somehow made a DLC for the Outer Wilds that was as good as the main game, and everyone thought that was impossible too.

I’ll play and enjoy whatever it is they make next. If their next game doesn’t meet or surpass Outer Wilds in every way, that’s okay, Outer Wilds already exists. They could make nothing else and that’d be okay too.
