Such a good song for such an average game. I like The Outer Worlds on its own but the community kind of elevated it for me.

The song is a fanmade song about The Outer Worlds, which is a video game. I can link it if you'd like.

In Quebec we have a song that says, roughly translated in English,  " I do coke to work more, make more cash, do more coke"
