Unpopular opinion warning: After absolutely adoring Subnautica I was excited to try Outer Wilds as I was told it was similar. But for some reason despite my best efforts I just never got myself to care about it. It must be having to start over and over again and having a time limit to do anything that just annoys me too much. I get what they were going for and you can really tell it was made with a lot of love. But it was just not for me.

Unpopular opinion warning: after playing and adoring Outer Wilds, I played Subnautica and, while it's a fine game, I'm having trouble getting engrossed in it. I've never been much of a fan of survival games, though (apart from Minecraft if it counts?) and Subnautica may be my favorite in that category... But it's still firmly in that category

Everyone should TRY Subnautica and Outer Wilds without being spoiled first. And if they give it a go and don't like it, they shouldn't be outcasts for choosing to read about the game instead of playing it themselves. No game is fun for everyone, and that's ok

Tetris might be the exception to your last rule
