[The Outer Worlds won't launch on Steam]

They have misspelled The Outer Wilds, game with similar title, but not the same.

 

Do you have proof of this?

[Official map of Eora?]

While this map is not to scale this is a really good fine!

[[ENDING SPOILERS] The ending of Deadfire and what it means for The Lore]

 

 

So we will be looking at a worldwide Hollowborn crisis?

Looks like it.

 

If that's the case what the hell was Eothas thinking?! This could very well lead to widespread social upheaval that could easily distract the nations of Eora on trying to find a solution. 

 

Also since the Wheel is now broken this means that ALL souls will not be reborn so that include animals? Are there going to be hollowborn animals now? Good lord, this could very well have massive repercussions across the world.

 

Animal husbandry - gone

Fishing - gone

Eora's Ecology - gone

The only difference was that reincarnation was way more chaotic and destructive (look for example at those bloodthirsty druids in Twin Elms, who sacrifice other people to strengthen other people souls).

 

That's just speculation with no evidence. And those druids worshiped the artificial gods, just like the rest of Eora, so they were doing their rituals within the system.

 

 

2) The Engwithans created the Wheel and the gods and established a perfect system for people to die and come back and keep souls strong. Problem: the gods grew corrupt and are now more about fighting each other than doing their job. The wheel is more like an automatic system nobody needs to take care of.

That much is implied in POE 2, yes.

 

 

There will still be rebirths, but it takes more time for the souls since they don't have the guidance of the gods anymore. That's why animancers, watchers and people like Xoti now get more important: they can guide the souls back through the adra into reincarnation and they have to build a new system.

No, it is stated in POE2 that with the Wheel broken there will be no rebirths, souls will go to the Beyond and won't return. And sooner or later Eora will be void of life, because souls won't return to inhabit the bodies. So it's very ****ed up now thanks to Eothas. 

And yes, somebody will have to fix the Wheel pretty quickly or everything will die out. Eothas called it as his test to kith. What a douche  . 

 

 

4) The gods can't do **** about Eothas plan because their bodies were destroyed a long time ago. I also think, that they are afraid of getting absorbed by the big Adra-statue that Eothas has become.

No, it is stated in one of the dialogues with the gods that they still could but decided not to inhabit physical bodies anymore after Ondra killed Abydon. Too afraid to start killing each other again? Kinda weak point considering Eothas threatened their whole existence. And now they're ****ed too because breaking the Wheel also broke the In-Between from which they siphoned souls to sustain themselves.
