When you first start playing this game, you'll be clueless. And it is HARD. You will die, many times over, and it can be frustrating. But please, PLEASE do not give up! Outskirts is just the beginning, and I can imagine that if you'd left the game there, you'd have a sour taste in your mouth.
Once you start progressing through the game, there is nothing else like it. Playing Rain World through was one of the most immersive and engaging experiences that I've ever had when playing a game. I love this game so so much!!
Play this game without spoilers, and play it all the way through. Do it. Don't give up.
