41:12 In the Book of D'ni they also had "Environmental Verification Suits" that the D'ni "Guild of Maintainers" would use in their initial explorations of newly-written Ages. The suits were supposed to protect the wearer from extreme temperatures and pressures and capture samples of the environment to ensure it would have a breathable atmosphere and generally be non-toxic. If the tests passed the book would be given their seal and unprotected travel permitted, if the tests failed the book would be destroyed.

@CoastalSphinx 23 дня назад

If I recall correctly, the Maintainers would also conduct regular inspections of Ages to verify that they were remaining stable. And if there had been no contact with an Age for a long period of time, they would treat it as "unknown conditions" and use the protective suits until they could confirm the Age was still safe.

@micahbush5397 28 дней назад

35:35 The first number isn't 37, it's 82. D'ni uses a base-25 number system, so instead of 3(10) + 7, it’s 3(25) + 7, which is 82.

@dylzim Месяц назад

You've mentioned being anxious about missing stuff a few times, you're doing fine, just as you said you're feeling out the space. Just be glad you weren't exploring this on the original 5-CD version.. you had to change discs every time you moved islands!

The lever you can't find, isn't there anymore. It was the power switch for the vent fan above the frog trap in the original. You had to do that, in order to reach Ghen's office. So, you're not going crazy, it's just not there.

@myuphrid Месяц назад

Riven! Come for the beautiful void, stay for the geology lecture.

@seankiesser6356 Месяц назад

Lore wise, and I'm guessing. The Tree absorbs the mineral that glows, and it's in the flowers, which the moths pollenate. Thus the Moths would also glow because they absorbed the mineral from the flowers. That's my guess at least.

@Mike14264 28 дней назад

That is absolutely brilliant!!! Like, wow, this is at the same level of connection between the elements of the world that's a staple of Riven! They did a really great job, integrating this new puzzle in the world!

@micahbush5397 11 дней назад

It might be some kind of fluorescent protein rather than a mineral. It would make sense, though, that the moths would get it by drinking nectar from the flowers.

@aristizle8797 Месяц назад

Neat. There's new content in this version. That lens is new. Might be an aid because it looks like 3D makes Rivan harder.

54:34 - Pretty sure this is indeed the bridge that collapses earlier in the game. . . Orientation is correct, and you can even see the broken steam pipe on the other island where it snapped apart (I think. . .).

2:05:00 I feel like he's not solving that puzzle correctly but he's really determined to solve it incorrectly. He's just focused on making it fit into the center boxes but I think the sliders need to match the locations too. If that makes any sense.

The purpose of the sound context subtitles is to narrate important things that happen outside of the player's sight and that's why you've only seen it in that one location. There's not many places where something important happens outside of the visual range of the player. That also explains why it's only visible above the console of the vehicle. It's a design choice specifically for VR but they didn't bother putting it at the bottom of the screen because if you're looking at the door, you don't need to know that the door is opening.

@generrosity Месяц назад

Even though you are missioning around to see everythning, you are solving so much! I do remember walls having random flipping eyes with numbers and sounds so they definitely have changed some puzzles. It might be the lens was only put there after ingame events. And I think you've missed something in that 5x5 grid solve. It would be interesting to see what the difference between the original and new puzzles are!

56:12 Is it me or they did the camera aperture simulation the wrong way around? Interiors should be darker until the aperture widen, and exteriors should be extra bright until the operture tighten again (56:18) Also, bezier curve catwalks and hallways are my pet-peeve. (Sorry I only comment random crap, but thanks for these videos as always!)

@mattsmith8160 Месяц назад

@1:34 That's funny. Right after you finished talking about having walked past a level on the long walkway you again walk right past the level on the right when you're looking at the window on the boiler which I suspect would turn off the burner underneath.

game wasn't bugged, you just look at the ground more than average last time you walked around the beach. You need remember you are playing in a 3D space, and to look up and all around. Great video, keep them comming!

@ViviFuchs 29 дней назад

To be fair, when he first ran around where the lens was, it was visible on the screen but it wasn't flashing like it was when he visited the second time. I don't know if the absence of The flash was intentional for the first time you walk by it or if it was a bug. I could totally see them supplying a subtle hint for such an important item if you miss it the first time you visit that area and then revisit it later. Also, yeah he doesn't look up and around nearly enough.

@ericwhiting7222 Месяц назад

Im playing the New Riven game myself, I solved the problem to this that u are having 1:09:14. BIG Hint , dont continue reading if u want to solve yourself, you did kind of solved the puzzle correctly, that how it should look, but not done the correct way. look at how the islands are positioned. The islands are the same as your pieces look at where the islands are at, sooo, where do you your peices go? 😉 If you still dont follow the 1 by 1 square piece should be on upper right corner.

@evewakefield3530 Месяц назад

@GreatWightSpark Месяц назад

Strange that Cyan made something so ambiguous - there are 4 different combinations, even if the correct one is literally under your nose at the time. Edit: let me reiterate: Cyan can be very, _very_ ambiguous, but they don't usually give you the puzzle with the solution so close by, especially not *in frame*. Usually it's deduce answer, enter, then see if it worked. This feels very strange for them.

@Mike14264 28 дней назад

@@GreatWightSpark it ain't that ambiguous, if it's right in front of your nose... tho this makes me wonder... how did this puzzle go in the original again? Or did he not solve the sliding block puzzle enough to get to the actual map puzzle?

@wallyman292 24 дня назад

1:00 - Funny as hell you bring up catching flack for years for not seeing a lever you needed at one point in your play-thru of the earlier version. . . All the while continuously walking right by the lever you need to throw in order to gain access to the boiler! ;)

@LittleWeevil Месяц назад

The notebook in this game is my only real gripe. There should be a hotkey to open it, it duplicates images sometimes for no reason, sometimes just captures the straight up incorrect image when I press the button, it doesn't save your position so you have to scroll down every time, scrolling is annoying because it loads up all the images in a row when you open it which makes it jittery, just kind of a mess.

@GreatWightSpark Месяц назад

I think Myst IV may have had the same issues, even though that wasn't Cyan (Ubisoft).

@CoastalSphinx 23 дня назад

@@GreatWightSpark Obduction had an even more annoying bug where deleting an image would mess up the image indexing, so clicking on one thumbnail would open a completely different full-size image. If you needed to look at a specific image in full size, you had to try every one until you found it.

@wallyman292 23 дня назад

Ooooff! Having to pinpoint the location of each of the orbs on each of the islands to solve the elevator code would have just been cruel! (. . . says the guy who's feeling a bit cocky at this point for having figured out the slider puzzle rather quickly!) ;)

@the1stMoyatia Месяц назад

Everything seemed to be well hidden. I have memories of the boiler island. It seemed pretty difficult. This version does have layers of complexity after all.

If I am recalling correctly, you can take that elevator inside the monster sculpture up one more level. That's how you get to the upper walkways on the tree/village island.

@GreatWightSpark Месяц назад

I want to know why Cyan thought to change Riven's logo from the ]-[ to the fish 🐠 seems like a weird design choice, but maybe they've actually added the model to the remake. Not everyone saw the silhouette or even understood the significance of it. The new way to gain entry into Gehn's lab was cool - reminds me more of Myst III and all the marble mechanics they used. Obviously more visually exciting than going through a duct! 42:47 you made the EXACT same comment last time 😆

@B_Skizzle Месяц назад

Weird indeed. I understand wanting to change the logo, but I would’ve liked something simpler. *[POSSIBLE SPOILER]* I think they should’ve used the new Rivenese symbol for the number 5. It retains the meaning of the original D'ni logo while signaling to people who've played Riven '97 that this isn't a one-to-one remake.

31:38 "hospitably" Also, a small hint for reading the D'ni numerals with two digits: I think the years on Gehn's journal are the same as those in Atrus'. Or at least around the same period more or less. Certianly more than 30-something: that something has a value greater than 9. And the new age that Gehn did manage to write? It certainly is a greater number than 98. Nah, this guy ruined a much vaster amount of worlds. More than double of the value you assumed it was, actually. I'll say that much. Also damn, everything is a numbering system for you, huh? 54:35 no yeah, this is the bridge you collapsed in the first epsiode :)
