I actually did this. I didnt pause and I thought I auto walked the song part and I came back and had to fucking start over. I got my guacamole and chips tho.
+G_Mo2000 kankercel question why don't you? just speed it up to make it go faster. I'm sure that you'd get views even if it wasn't a perfect recording set up
Since 'The Song' isn't necessarily human anymore, her "Taking care of you" isn't necessarily a hazard for her. Since we all know what she means when she says "I will be yours".
I love that in the peaceful ending you can see that he actually has a deep mental thought about what he should do and doesn’t really know what to think
So there was actually a way to stay with The Song. That's what I wanted to do in the first place. These things are never obvious on how to activate them.
I was wondering if i could actually stay on my first playthrough, but the way she kept repeating the same 2 or 3 voicelines made me think i had to leave lol Wish there was a prompt to sit next to her instead of having to wait around
Way better than the reverse- was taking my time exploring because I really REALLY like that areas theme and thought it might go away if I initiated battle- just as I walked back up to her to go past to the platform she told me I "made the right choice" and I was startled speechless. I think a little piece of my soul died when the credits finished rolling and I wasted back at The Chain (it'd taken me like 6 or 7 hours to get to that point)
0:36 What's interesting about this to me is that Riders expression is almost identical to what he shows if you attack The Star, one of pure anger. I think that no matter which ending you chose, he inevitably developed a conscience, though depending on the ending, it would be wildly different. In the good ending, Rider is changed, the guardians made him see the reality of the situation, furious at what he's been made to do, his escape from the prison, his attack on The Free World, and the people he's had to kill on the way to earn his freedom, he directs this rage at The Star, the one responsible for all of this, in a way, The Star is right, they've corrupted him. But in this ending, he remains unchanged by what he's seen, what he's had to do, he remembers what they put him through, the imprisonment, the torture, the (probably) eternity of suffering he would have spent in there if he didn't break free, so now, he directs his rage towards them, letting The Free World die for what they put him through.
@johny gota pseudonym that's not what he's saying. He's saying that Rider is pissed in both endings but his anger is directed at different things based on the ending. The Star for making him as nothing more than a weapon of war or The World for imprisoning him and torturing him.
Honestly, the secret ending is really well done but a little frightening itself. I got it on my first playthrough because after crossing The Line (which I found an interesting metaphor, the rest up to then were crazy and then boom, you just murdered a jailer that wasn't) I started to wonder if the Rider was the villain. But the Song's offer creeps me out. I realise they all had already given up their lives to the containment of the Rider, but she'd further give up her self to be with the rider constantly? It's not like she's leveling with him or trusting him, she tells him that it was all a mistake "the cells, the restraints" and such. She's obviously in fear of him, and her offer of her self to please him enough to stay is.... eeeeugh. "I'll take care of you... my people will thrive. I will be their hero. You will be taken care of. I will give you more each and every day. I will be yours. "
she obviously thinks of herself as some kind of divine angel, making her world to resemble the garden of eden and how the first thing she thinks of is "i will be a hero to my people", while all the other guardians seem to just be extrmelly duty bound or murderous psychos. Maybe the secret ending is just her playing to her fantasy: "the mercifull godess who extended a hand to the powerfull sad devil and gave him light, then they lived happilly ever after in paradise". She is one of those people who is benevolent, but only to appease her ego
Spot on with the ego stuff, I think the writers choreographed that very well, for what little dialog she gets (any ending gets, really.) That "I will be a hero" line says all you need to know.
When I played through I was honestly hoping for the secret ending, but instead I just kept walking around so it didn't trigger and after like 3-4 minutes I decided to do the fight, I wanted Rider to smash >:(
guys, did you notice that when assimilating the planet, the path made to the building remains dead, but when we fight the mother ship, the same path appears alive again, you can see it better in the trees a little ahead
PetersaberHD no they'd eventually send another rider. If enough were lost they would start invasion regardless. However it might be a few lifetimes before they send another
When people noticed Shambles was on the OST but it had no boss to accompany it (this was before One More Fight), people assumed The Voice was a cut boss fight. Fun fact: he's actually the seventh Guardian.
I’m actually really happy we didn’t fight him because I thought it was gonna be the whole, “guy telling you to do things actually has really bad intentions and will kill you afterwards” thing. But it wasn’t, and I like that
*makes a child into an orphan* *kills angel mom* *slaughter's snow-waifu* *tHEN DeCIDESs tO tAkE tHE FUcKInG HeRO RouTE AnD NoT BlOWW uP A pLANeTT* WHAT THE FUCK
Wait, so... if the Rider is largely immortal, and effectively survives The Star's explosion and re-entry... doesn't that mean that all of the other deactivated Riders on board are equally resilient, and so "good ending" has simply thrown them around in all directions, and so a few dozen will probably land on the planet regardless? Secret ending might actually be a safer bet for everyone, then. One just has to hope the Star doesn't send another Rider while ours is resting... but then again, it didn't do that in all the time while he was imprisoned, so why would it again...? Another, potentially better question: if the planet is Earth, how come The Star has avoided detection while essentially hovering in its orbit for so long? That just seems particularly impossible, unless this is actually a sparsely populated colony, or something.
Robert Neville I think he left before it exploded, otherwise he would have died. That's my interpretation at least, since we saw him make an attempt to escape the mothership as it exploded.
After thinking on it (and seeing the beginning again - go see what The Chain says), I don't think Rider is immortal. The Guardians just *think* he is because every time they kill him, he seems to come back. When in fact, it's another Rider sent out when the last one dies. That's why eventual imprisonment and guarding appear to work. As The Star doesn't send out another Rider until the previous dies.
swamdono If that were the case they wouldn't think he was immortal. likely the damage him till his system can no longer function at which point his system goes into hibernation to heal itself.
Consider it a naive assumption by the guardians. They kill a guy, then see him again the following week etc. The Line says something that sounds interesting. "I can't kill you, but I can remove you from my here and now". Which is a contrast to what The Chain says about locking you back up.
no, it's just that they can't kill you, they just need to lock you to stop you from coming back to the mothership, if they kill you, the mothership will probably send an attack immediately.
Ehhhh I wouldn't really call destroying your entire race the "Good Ending". I don't think any of the endings are "good" but thats the beauty of Furi huh
You don't destroy Rider's entire race. You only blow up a mothership. The ship's interface says that it's only one mothership, and there are plenty of others that can pick up where it left off.
@@HugeNacho If your species saving plan involves both genocide and hinges on ONE BEING not rebelling, then you deserve to be replaced by a younger race...
@@MiningwithPudding I think rider won from mother spaceship because fighting all these people made him a much better fighter. So maybe they didn't attack earth because spaceship was waiting for him,but he turned on them and was more powerful than before
What Bunboy or whatever does on the secret Ending? It would have been nice to see him try to take The Rider back to his side or fight him, after such betrayal
She'd probably just send another rider to 'gather more information'. The Star can't activate the invasion without manual input, but is in charge of deployment, and based on the information she has already collected she would just keep sending them until one pressed the switch.
because it's the good ending,rider experience with them plus seeing how he effects the planet made him make his resolve to rebel and save the planet. in the other endings,you have the invasion which is obviously the bad ending, and you the one where he stay with the song in which case multiple riders will invade the planet anyway after they get tired of waiting.
Wow, there actually is a secret ending there. I had a suspicion but after The Song repeated the same voiceline over and over with no signs of stopping even though I stood perfectly still I figured the devs wouldn't make you sit through that.
I accidentally skipped The Song's cutscene on my first playthrough, so I wasn't even aware there was a secret peaceful ending. But then, I would've missed out on pulling my hair out over The Burst, my bromie The Edge, and the absolute feels-fest of The Beat.
what they dont tell you about the secret ending in this is that if you log back in to the game you simple stand back up off the bench after spending untold time with the song you stand up and kill her to leave. the secret ending is only temporary and i love how they built your urge to finish the game to drive riders urge to leave the prison. ive only ever seen meta shit like this in darksouls (quitting the game is the same as loosing your mind to hollowification) and in undertale, where a very similar end thing happens if you pick up the game again after getting a particular ending. good stuff
no worries, just to point out as well, both the A rank screen and the S rank screen are from the same playthrough, so I'm fairly certain "The Star" needs to be beat for that S rank.
I was shook from the fight before low poly Mercy and actually took 30 seconds to just breathe, if I hadn't actually sat back and ignored the walk up to her I might have taking those extra 30 seconds and gotten the secret ending by accident
I got up to this point in the game and went to the rest room and then i saw the fucking end credits I got so pissed because Im trash at this game and took my forever to get to her lmao
The final boss was so satisfying when I finally beat it. I struggled with the last faze for 2 straight days. I refused to look up any kind of tutorial or tip because it had to be ME to beat it. Once I did I screamed in excitement lol it really felt good haha
I'm sorry, but I can't shake the feeling off that the "good ending" isn't actually a good ending. You're basically betraying your own species for no reason whatsoever. We as the player identify with humans because we are humans ourselves, but if the game was about going to another planet in order to safe the human race, and we would have to kill the entire alien race in order to save our own, i dunno why I would side against us, I want my family to live after all.
Hello brother. Even if they would have sent another Rider, I think it’s because he festered his “Furi” and he actually was angered that no one came to help him. Also, he gained emotions throughout the game.
I dont get why rider would betray his own kind. I mean, the bunny guy didnt really convince him otherwise, and the jailers sure didnt show how kind humans can be.
well from I interpreted, the rider is just a clone, created for the destruction that cannot die, where as the jailers are just the strongest/smartest people of their kind who all in all just want to protect their home, but if we look at the The Song/The Beat/The Voice/The Hand, all of these are clearly capable of compassion. where as the rider comes from a clone army, led by what looks like some sort of AI. After seeing this the rider then releases that he shouldn't be destroying these peoples homes. and fights back. saving humanity.
Pretty much what Logan said. Think of it like the Clones who disobeyed Order 66 in Star Wars. It's a rather similar parable, only with obviously different contexts.
And the secret ending wasn't very secret. Though I did like it though, because it felt like the only route to a happy tomorrow for everyone. I mean, except the first few people you killed to get there, but you understand it's for the best. That, and when you kill they little girl(basically) and she asked you to hold her hand and even the Stranger/Rider looked like he felt guilty felt like a knife in the gut
Honestly, I feel like the good ending would turn out like the secret ending. Rider can’t stay on “Earth” since he destroys it by being near it, so he may end up staying in an area above it like the guardian areas
But isn't the peacefull secret ending kind of bad if you know the "real endings"? Cause they will just send another rider if he won't come back in my opinion.
If that was true they would've sent in the whole fleet while he was locked up If our rider decided to stay for the sake of the world below, then perhaps he would be willing to defend it from another rider if one were to show up
Pandyx I think the "rider" is special in some form compared to the others. It's why he doesn't die when you fail. he just gets back up and goes at it again
10:18 This ending just screams "REMEMBER THIS GUY THAT HELPED AND BELIEVED IN YOU? WELL LOOK AT HIM NOW WITH HIS DAUGHTER, YOU FOOL. LOOK AT WHAT YOU HAVE WROUGHT, YOU MONSTER"
This is confusing because the star says "Rider malfunction" and fact that there was a bunch of Riders too, it gives off the feeling that there are multiple "the stars" roaming and whoever the leader is, is a threat and the added proof is the line "we have always been there" who exactly and what survival? And fact that the Star says "They don't even know we exist" could be taken in the planet or theirs and Rider probably does have amnesia due to start of the game and how it says "they said you corrupted their world but they corrupted you". The thing is the star also says "A Rider cannot put his interest before ours" shows there is more than one. I do hope there is a sequel to this game and if so i would be thankful i am blessed to experience this game and happy to come back to it.
am I just garbage at this? I just started playing this beat the game on the hard difficulty in like an hour or 2 yet setting it on easy I still can't beat the first level of the head, you did it like a walk in the park. I'm salty, really salty. screw Nobel I should have blown up the world
Since the bad ending is referred to as "assimilation", I have to wonder what REALLY happens when this occurs. The Rider destroys everything around him just by existing, yet he can parry attacks to heal himself even in a prison designed to block his destructive powers. Hell, he even regenerates by dying. Also, the Scale was someone who likely came into contact with the Rider and well... suffered a lot... in the past tense at least, as he seems to be suffering no ill effects during his fight other than psychological trauma. What's to say that assimilation wouldn't cause everything that is destroyed to eventually come back stronger, perhaps creating an army for the Rider's race to fight off more powerful threats, which could be why their survival depended on it. But then again, this is just a theory, and just how much time has passed between the Rider's arrival at the Free World (and then the prison) and the beginning of the game? And what happened to everything that was affected by the Rider's initial arrival? Because to be fair the Scale is the only thing from the Rider's initial arrival that we get to see in-game and even then his trauma and madness makes him not the most reliable narrator, as the Voice simply tells you that he's just messing with you. And has the Voice, or anyone else for that matter, visited the affected area since its destruction?
There were multiple riders before Rider, they were killed and another came back leading to the misunderstanding of the people on the planet thinking he was immortal, they decided to lock our Rider up and that fixed things for a good ammount of time so it worked for them all but god hope he escapes, the others already caused much chaos, on the assimilation ending through I think they're just gonna kill everyone harvest the resources/terraform take over the planet like Von Neumann machines for their creators to come there and continue living.
XD yo saque el final secreto porque me gustaba explorar para ver los paisajes y bajar un poco el ritmo (me costaba mucho cada jefe). Cuando ya iba a salir para la pelea me salto el final secreto jajajajaja XD.
The secret ending is nice, but not sustainable. As shown in the bad ending, there are other riders. If The Star realizes the Rider is not coming back at all, then another Rider will just be sent out to do the scouting.
So with the secret ending you never go to activate the final boss thing? Nor do you kill it? Would it just sit there forever or would someone ever activate it?
