I do think if you have a pretty big fear of death, outer wilds is a good game to help you maybe feel just a little less dread about it
#i have so many feelings like
#it IS an incredibly tragic game. theres so much pain and grief in it
#but it also has a lot of comfort. for how its addressed you dont see anyone with an overwhelming terror in regards to
#death in general or acknowledging their inevitable death that is Very Imminent
#of course we also have chert (which i still havent recovered from. my god.) but i think it balances out
#i dont know if the end is Really the travelers in some mystical mysterious quantum version or just the hatchlings memories but
#especially then it really drives it home. they arent afraid. they dont want you to be afraid either
#and theres the prisoner and their people who Did absolutely fear death and what the eye of the universe was capable of
#but in the end even the prisoner is able to make peace with it. they can see it isnt something to be feared
#as much as you might feel it- everything /isnt/ meaningless. everyone and everything will die one day but the things we did and learned
#and the ways we loved all matter and they will impact the future. in one way or another those memories and actions carry on.
#for better or for worse
#its okay to be afraid but you cant let that fear control you or paralyze you
#idk i just really really appreciate seeing such a positive and comforting outlook on endings and death
#as someone who hates endings and fears death
#especially seeing so much nihilism
#and i just kind of really latch onto bittersweet media. its comforting for me lol
#anywho...
