it's like the last secret of Shadow of the Colossus

@@3thanguy7 The 17th Colossus we never got?

And now is delivering on the "fake" teaser of said secret. Dude plays 5D chess.

Honstly the most simple solution is the best

Can't help but wonder if that's Mullins' alt to steer people the right way. lol

For sure, I think it's just a silly joke. Idk if we'll ever see a sequel to Pony Island at this point. He even joked about it again in The Hex with "Pony Island 2: Andy Serkis"

@@Flemmonade yeah, I wasn't trying to ummactually, just sharing some thoughts

There's actually a second reason they added that screen- apparently a fan made a joke to them that the second game should have been called Hotline Miami 3 because it was the 'wrong number', so it was also a cute nod to that joke.

That ending was so stupidly fitting The whole game was senseless violence by unimportant people for evil reasons, and the reward for going trough all of that is literally rendering everything that happened meaningless It's a proportional response to the senseless violence and the only thing that grants some sort of comfort is that all of the terrible circumstances are definitively over

Imo it's more akin to these 1 in 100000 old NES/SNES cartridges that had games pretending to be sequels that were actually romhacks/reskins, like these weird Mario clones.

he revisits this theme on Inscryption where we would skip am entire segment of the ARG bc we couldn't solve a part that had no clues 🤷‍♂️ But you can't count a solution if you can't show why it works. it STUMPed us for a bit

It only took 8 years

@@mlgcactus1035don’t forget he dropped off inscryption too

For real

@@OG_stevedidWHATThe Hex aswell

lol, a game from 2016 equals to "the oldest games"?

This wasn't an unfound secret though. All the details to find this ending were known shortly after it released in 2016. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h9Ckgph1tM65pZs.html

Yeah, I had to find what the fuzz was about panda circus, after seeing some comments about it, while being unaware of the arg thing.

Honestly, this guy plays for long term stuff. His ARG is madness and I love it. Makes it feel like a sort of time traveling stuff

I was actually said friend lol; happened to notice immy’s pfp in the vid and was like “yooooo wtfff”; good times 😅

Daniel Mullens is just a better version of Scott Cauthon.

@@thermophile1695 I wouldn't put it that way, but I do agree that Daniel is a whole lot more interactive with the fans with theories and secret hunting. Scott only confirms theories or teases how close people are to the truth every now and then, he doesn't actively update the games or add in and edit things in his games to follow the fans.

I was really surprised that there's hardly any videos covering that hopeless soul part. It's a tiny detail but it's super important considering Satan's relevance to the other games in the Mullinsverse

@@Flemmonade The connection of pony island and the hex wasn't clear for me until i saw this. The most important detail.

Where was 2023 hinted?

@@mistylandschaft in pony island 1 when Asmodeus asks you 3 question, one answer is simply just "2023"

I actually ran into that bottle issue the other day. Apparently it hasn’t worked since April 2019. I got the bottle duplication to work properly after reverting to an old version, so hopefully the rest of the steps work fine too

@@Flemmonade While you're messing with the Hex, do you think you can you figure out what the deal with Entervale is? Typing it in Secrets of Legendaria does something, but its unclear what the point of it is exactly. It lets you get out of bounds in a few ways, but it doesn't seem to solve any puzzles. That, and the phrase "entervale" isn't anywhere in game as far as I can tell, even though Endervale is.

@@TheFuzzyOcelot I’ve considered making a video on the Hex’s secrets too, since a ton of the secrets like the Entervale one aren’t really well documented. As for why people knew to put in Entervale, it was super hidden, and appears on the corrupted attack you get from copying Missingno’s attack with a Mimic Charm. The description’s in binary, but it just says Entervale over and over. So I guess that was the clue for it. I’m not sure if it’s mentioned elsewhere in the game

I love his style too, but the Inscryption ARG & his secrets seem to have extremely lackluster endings. It's like he begins a rabbit hole & instead of leaving something valuable at the end, he just ends it when he can't think of anything more to put there. It's a bit disappointing considering the puzzles & universe are both so interesting.

Thanks I’m glad I could help! That’s a lot of the reason I made these videos. I love lore and secrets like this, but for some reason there’s no videos about them. And the videos that do exist only show the ending. I think the journey’s a lot more interesting than the destination

I remember playing it with a steam emulator (cuz eff running Steam just to play a game) and the game, i kid you not, used the custom friends system from the emulator It just blew my mind because while the emulator has online functionality, you can find 10 ppl tops on popular game (and since the game has no friend addition system, all of them are considered friends as far as the game is concerend), so getting a message in a game like this was terryfying at best since it was with the name of a complete stranger

@vacuum sealed garfield how is his account is active? I thought youtube was really strict about that.

​@@bananafone1414 I was surprised as well. Lucky dude.

@@rompevuevitos222 what is wrong with running steam?

@@mattpatt4976 -If steam crashes or closes for any reason, the game closes too. -If there's an update queued, you cannot play the game. -Steam has a small but still noticeable impact on performance. -Steam's overlay can mess with games (and yes it can be disabled, but it's just another issue for the pile) -You can't take your games with you between PCs, unless you log in on those PCs (and Steam does not support multiple users logged from the same client so if that other PC already has an account logged in, you have to log off) -If steam is not running, you have to wait until it finishes booting up (which at least now it doesn't bug at random when doing so) before you can play anything. -In offline mode, Steam tends to forget your account, blocking you out of your games until you regain internet and log back in. -Steam's input system is system wide and can cause controllers to produce keyboard inputs in other games and apps even if they aren't from Steam (which wouldn't be that bad if it wasn't so buggy or required big picture to even configure) -If the game uses steam's servers and the client looses it's connection for any reason (specially during maintenance days) the connection is interrupted and often requires reconnecting to the game in question. -The workshop system is inconsistent at best, most of the time doesn't work without internet (deletes the mods already installed, which can screw up saves in modded games) AND to download the mods locally (without relying on the workshop doing so) you need to download SteamCMD separately and look up it's documentation for the commands, THEN look up the mod id and run the command. Instead of just offering a download button in the workshop page. Now compare this to GOG, which has 0 DRM of any kind. You buy a game and you can use it whenever at any time, no third party software required.

I assume you did a joke, but either way, the content was added on a later patch update back in the day. So, he added those new pony assets, smashed the keyboard while naming those assets, and changed the iamerror response to give you the name of those assets. So, if you had typed that name on an unity asset extractor tool, you would had get the raw files of those panda assets.
