That's not really a problem with the game, but with your expectations. If I watch the film Alien expecting a comedy but it's actually a horror I wouldn't complain the film is overrated and not funny.

A shame, but that's cool. Not every game works for everyone. I can't stand the Dark Souls games and it seems I'm in a minority on that one.
Outer Wilds is so good. A perfect game for Switch. And the DLC included too, which was also superb.
Pity they can't release a way to erase the game from my memory so I can play it afresh. Half the point of the game (and DLC) is just figuring out what the game is. Because I already know what to do I'd just complete it in about 10 minutes so it's sadly not worth me picking it up again.
But anyone who hasn't played it, please give it a go. It's just wonderful.
An hour of grinding - that they will also sell you powerups to help you skip that grind.

Snowrunner. A great combination of both chilled-out & stressful, driving massive diesel trucks at 5mph through woods and rivers delivering logs or girders.
The fact there's no big story and almost zero dialog, just assignments and map markers mean it's a superb 'podcast' game - something you can put it on while you listen to some podcasts / audiobooks.
Not that the game is boring or just a distraction. It's incredibly satisfying finding the best way to navigate through a horrendous woodland or swamp and get all your cargo through safely.
Plus, it has some of the best landscape physics out there. Rushing water really feels accurate. Mud paths get distorted so that it's harder to get through on your way back than before you churned it all up.
A great game. 100s of hours I've sunk into that thing.
Jonathan Blow can fit an awful lot of antivax, conspiracy theories and transphobic ranting into a 15hr commentary.
I thought PS5 / XBOX versions were delayed to 2024, no?
I honestly doubt he'll do something this stupid - spend a year making everyone hate a service they used to like and then charge them to use it.
But then again I didn't think he'd rename Twitter to X, so who knows what that boner will do.
I swapped over to https://www.themoviedb.org years ago and have never looked back.
Ah interesting option, thanks! I've occasionally watched a few speedruns of it but I didn't realise there's whole first time playthroughs.
