I'm Sorry (Signalis Continued...) 

bruh

I got goofed

dude you ungoofed with that comment

You are a goof

Looking forward to it!

Indei, ten hours later, looking up the secret ending:

bro missed another 4 endings lol

@@smells109 wait 4? There's a fifth ending?

@@javantm1676 Been a while but there is iirc. Four main endings and another haha you're dumb lol fake ending or something idk

@@javantm1676 you probably already know this, but yes: there's the fakeout, the three main endings, and a secret ending

I honestly can't tell if indie was fooled or if we was making an intentional jab at the 'fake ending' trope. We may never know.

@@r3dp9 Either it was a clever bit where he ended the video only to have the continuation of the video after the video ended as a nod to how the game does the exact same thing. Or he fucked up, but then turned it into a clever bit about how the game does the exact same thing. Honestly, I'm alright with either.

He still didn't do Lili ending

@@GiantMrTHX that ultra-giga-super-secret-meta ending is so obtuse and weird it aint worth it cuz it is too meta. i wish he got either "Memory" or "Promise" ending and was excited see his reaction, but he got the "Leave" ending which compared to the other endings is narratively so unsatisfying and abrupt and anti-climatic lmao

@@r3dp9 he explains it like 2 minutes into the video....

The game pull a fast one out.

I like to see each one of the three endings as a part of a unique ending, the first being Memory and the last Leave

@@MuriloRiFO I see it as different iterations, one left, one couldn't fulfill the promise, and the one that broke the cycle or time loop hell thing, was the one that fulfilled the promise.

@@pelgervampireduckThen there's whatever the HELL the artifact ending is. I mean, at least Leave, Memory and Promise are all decipherable, if up to interpretation as to whether they are 'good' or not. Artifact just confuses me every step of the way. All I think I can say for sure is that it leaves Ariane still begging you to fulfil the promise.

Indeimaus is just happy he’s able to rake more cash from this game than he anticipated 😂

I think it's supposed to represent the same thing being created over and over based on the time loop we seem to be in with ariane getting a ton of elsters to journey to her

@@kelpocereal5077 pretty sure this is correct, yeah. Also references the way Replikas are created; a copy of a copy of a copy.

Funny thing is that's probably the least depressing ending lol.

@@yewtewbstew547 Agree. I'm glad to have kept the promise.

That's the one where you choke the person right

@@Revealingstorm. that's the one where you keep the promise. Then there's the one where "she" doesn't remember anything. And then the one we see here.

@@beo3828 yeah I've seen everything except the secret ending. Just didn't know the names

He got Leave, so he kind of did. I’m sure he saw Promise/Memory later in a video.

Honestly can't tell if you people are aware he didn't actually know, or are dumb enough to think he'd intentionally fuck his algorithm and make a half baked video just for a really bad "ha gottem!" joke that didn't even land... He thought the game was over until people shouted at him on Twitter lol...

​@@NateTheScot man you seem so cool and normal and definitely not someone who took this WAY too seriously

It’s “make this right” from the Furi soundtrack

Totally agree! :)

if you are really gonna play then u should look up bits of tricks cuz they game is really bad at teaching u stuff or intentionally doesn't tell you : 0. set text pop up speed to "instant" so that u can instantly pick up items and open door instantly cuz the game doesnt pause during text prompts and u will get hit by enemies while trying to pick up items if text speed is set so "slow/mid/fast". but game pauses on inventory screen tho 1. game can be an absolute cancer with backtracking if u are running around with loaded inventory. so keep space 2. dont carry healing items, there are way too many of them in the environment grab and use them on the fly, dont ever carry them with u while exploring new areas. 3. once enemy is down on the ground u go up to them and stomp them dont use ammo 4. dont spam attacks, aim and wait till the reticle becomes tiny then shoot otherwise u do 1/3 of damage 5. stun prods are OP, they are AoE so u can take out multiple enemy with one of them, dont carry more than 2/3 stun prods so that u have space to pick up stun prods that u find during exploration. carry limit for stun prods is 4. 6. dont use thermite on corpses to burn them, u can use thermite like a melee weapon on "alive" enemies but the game never tells u this and for mobs it will instakill them and save ur ammunition 7. dont carry more than one gun cuz u wont really need em tbh, 8. kill enemies, to get one of the good/narratively satisfying ending (Promise ending, Memory ending) u need to kill loads of enemies/basically all enemies. dont run away from "alerted" enemies cuz otherwise u get "Leave" ending. which doesnt explain anything. there is carry limit on ammo, so no use in hoarding them put them to good use have fun 9. choose "yes" , open the letter in the final chapter it will help u explain game's event. 10. rifle can pierce through multiple enemies. line up and get triple k^lls 11. flare pistol is OP, it one shots every mobs from distance, u wont even need to stomp once they are down cuz they will eventually burn 12. There is no grenade launcher, u combine grenade shells with Flare pistol to fire explosive. game is an absolute gem but damn game is really stingy and doesnt give a F about players inconvenience. combat looks simple but it has depth. hope u have fun playing this. i loved it, but the game can easily turn away and p^ss off new players

@@btchiaintkidding7837 damn what a well written guide, this is all stuff that could sour a new player experience. Good lookin out

@@btchiaintkidding7837 literally backseating lmao

@@btchiaintkidding7837 #8 actually ends up being a lot more complicated than that. The endings basically work on a points system. You're awarded points towards each ending by fulfilling conditions tied to that ending. It's true that killing 90 enemies and then 120 enemies are conditions for unlocking the Promise ending, worth 1 point each, but you could theoretically still achieve the promise ending with zero kills (if that was possible I mean) provided you met at least two of the other Promise conditions and two or fewer of the conditions for Leave. The reason I say "two" or fewer is because the Memory ending actually starts with two points by default, but the only additional condition Memory has up for grabs is beating the game under 6 hours for 1 point. So Memory is basically the "default" ending, that's the one you're most likely to get if you play carefully and efficiently. And also is Promise and Leave are scoring equal, Promise wins. Promise ending has 8 points up for grabs. Leave has 6. Memory has 1 (but it starts with 2). So in a way, the Promise ending is actually the easiest one to get. So based on this info (game was data-mined), killing enemies will only ever push you towards the Promise ending. Running away from enemies isn't a condition for Leave, but since you're not killing them it does technically make it more likely since you might miss the 90/120 kill condition for easy Promise points. tbh though if you're a fan of the classic Resident Evil games or Silent Hill 1-4, I think it's pretty safe to just go into this game blind. That's what I did, and figured most this out for myself except for the endings thing and I also didn't know you could "melee" enemies with flares until reading this comment. Got the Memory ending first playthrough, which is not a bad ending imo.

@@btchiaintkidding7837 that's the fun part of these type of games, figuring out shi by yourself

Depends on how you evaluate "good" and "worst. All endings have their own unique implications. Leave is Elster remembering but not having the strength to do what needs to be done. Memory is Elster remembering the Promise but loving Ariane too much so she decides to die next to her enjoying her company one more time and leaving it to another instance of herself to keep the Promise. Promise is Elster remembering the Promise and going through without ending the cycle for everyone. Lily is Elster creating a new reality through ritual in which only she can be happy, forever reliving the 3000th anniversary ad Infinium, without a chance for the cycle to be broken. Many would argue all are bad endings. Personally I prefer the Promise ending because it stops the torment of everyone but its hardly a "good" ending.

Essentially this: Elster 512 and Ariane are send on a suicide mission to look for a planet outside the solar system. They fall in love. Ariane is suspected to posses bio resonance power (reading minds etc.). At a certain point the Penrose (the ship) begins to break down. Ariane ends up in cryo sleep while dying. One of the books that is dear to her is "the King in Yellow" which is an eldritch horror story, Cthulhu and the like as a matter of fact Hastur (the King in Yelllow) is a part of the Cthulhu universe. Hastur often "perverts" Artists, which Ariane clearly is. The color Yellow signifies decay and mental illness. Think of him like a malevolent wishgranter who doesnt actually understand how humans or their universe works. It is heavily implied that while in cryo Ariane warps reality itself, likely through the King in Yellow, reliving parts of her life, dreaming new realities into existence. That is why people Ariane doesnt really know or forgets, just simply cease to exist. The reason the Replikas are not all vanishing too is that they are such a part of daily life that Ariane has a hard time forgetting them. With every new iteration of her memory dream, the world is made a new, a bit different than before but those within that dream aren't always new people, Adler notices this. Falke crossed the Red Gate and as a result was invaded by some of Elster's memories eventually believing herself to be Elster. Thus the final boss fight. Our own Elster doesnt remember much once reality is reset once more and the game begins, except she is looking for someone. The photo she carries however isnt of Ariane but of Isa Itou. One of the few friends Ariane had on Rotfront. Several characters, including Ariane, point out the two look alike. This is referenced with the photos in the game. There are three photos, two of Alina Seo (throughout the game and to her left Elster's original Gestalt, both long dead by now) and one of Ariane (Penrose). It is only after the fake-out ending, where Elster remembers again what the Promise was and why. She then gets up and puts herself back together both physically and mentally, becoming Elster 512 again. But unlike Falke, she is in actually the complete Elster 512. Then reality is reset again, once again we relive a dream of Ariane's memory only to see now that her memory is degrading, "everything around is is being torn apart and put back together but someone or something that doesnt quite understand how it works" to quote Adler. We then seek out the deepest memory of Ariane, her home, remember the depressing, windowless room with the radio from the beginning of the game, thats her room. We then face Falke and when she dies, she touches us, proclaiming for us to be one. Implying that the part of Elster's soul in Falke is merged with us and now we are indeed whole. Adler tries to stop us, because he has figured out that, whenever we fail, things get worse, the memory degrades and reality suffers. Then depending on the ending a few things can happen. The ending in the video - Leave - represents us not being able to go through with the Promise and dying like the rest of the dead Elsters before us. Thus resetting the cycle once more. The Memory ending has Elster 512 reunite with Ariane but the latter doesnt remember anything, without the support of Ariane Elster cannot go through with the Promise and instead decides to die beside of Ariane, leaving it to another instance of herself to fulfil the Promise. In fact we encounter this very moment after the Fake-out ending, when our Elster takes parts for 512 and becomes 512 again. The Promise ending has Elster 512 go through with the Promise. Ending the cycle for everyone but presumably also ending reality, which at this point likely is the merciful option then to leave it in an ever degrading state. The Lily ending has Elster complete a ritual to create her own reality through the King in Yellow. A reality in which she can be happy. A reality in which only three things exist, Elster, the Penrose and the remnants of the happy time she spend with Ariane. Notice I didnt say Ariane, but memories of her, because Ariane is essentially a puppet. And so both of them dance, reliving that moment ad Infinium without the hope of the cycle to ever be broken. In the Lily ending we see a singular eye peering down at the Penrose, though we do not know what entity is peering down at us. It could be Ariane, it could be Hastur. Thats the short version of it.

First he got fake ending, then he got worst ending that explains nothing and didnt bother to look up what's actually was going on. Very frustrating.

I absolutely loved it. Incredible atmosphere, incredible music (remember the bloop-bleep-bleep when you first walk on the ocean floor?) it had a few jumpscares, but eh, i can forgive it 🙂

Not quite right. Picking "quit" obviously makes you realize there's more, yes. In my case tho, I was intrigued by the "begin" option, that was previously "continue". With that, Elster wakes up in the same room at the beginning of the game, so I actually thought I was restarting the game, without going ahead and noticing the differences. I think that's how some people miss the last part. Anyway, amazing game, amazing fake ending.

@@ClaudioLai2000 I guess that's a fair point, I personally only figured out it is the future since the radio was available in the inventory =) Along with all them documents also I guess

@@alextalker5979 I was too depressed to check at that point 💀
