Damn, i should've listened to the spoiler warning, otherwise I'd have beaten the game, discovered the qr code thing, cracked it, discovered the ending thing, solved the unsolved puzzles, and gotten the true ending by myself.

It is all so clear to me now: "yendor" backwards is "rodney" , so the key to the eyes lies in doing sick tricks on the skateboard that spawns at the beginning, like rodney mullen would do /s

Noita devs: Let's make a super complicated and complex ARG inside our already very complex and difficult game Also Noita devs: Lmao get Rick rolled.

Need to mention here that in original Rogue/Nethack games, there was Cheap plastic imitation of the Amulet of Yendor if got in wrong place. As well as true Amulet of Yendor have specific influence to gameplay.

Imagine how funny it would be if the Noita devs admitted in a couple years that the eye glyphs never actually meant anything…

Assuming the eyes or cauldron are the answers to the 34th orb that would be very cool, but also to note there is a message after getting the 34th orb that says something along the lines of "you aren't supposed to have this" which makes it seems like getting the 34th orb (at least via the chest method) is supposedly deemed impossible. Which could mean that maybe there is A) a potential real 34th orb that you can summon or B) perhaps owning the Amulet of Yendor is actually a curse, as in you are never supposed to be able to obtain it legitimately, and is a further sign of the Noita's greed to have a bright glowing gem around their neck via 'illegitimate' methods.

the 'Amulet of Yendor' is something from the original Rogue - the item that ends the game by bringing it back out of the dungeon. I do find it interesting that I don't hear this in discourse all that often on YT. I would not be surprised if the creators of a highly complex rogue-like built the end of the game as a homage to the original Rogue - especially one that feels so faithful to the identity of it. An interesting part is the fact that in the original Rogue, you could not return to previous levels UNTIL you had the amulet. Makes me think about Noita and how each temple collapses and forces you further down, along with how New Game + works - sending you to a new world and the previous one you can't get back to. And the Cauldron only spawns in the NG+. Other interesting comparisons is how you can choose instead of finishing the "The Work" you can take the 'amulet' to the alter above the mountain, similar to how you use the Amulet of Yendor in NetHack - another popular Rogue game - where you ascend to the Astral Plane and sacrifice the 'true' (as there are fakes) amulet on the alter of the gods to ascend to godhood and end the game. I find a lot of these similarities WAY too convenient. I am thinking the cauldron is their own little addition to the lore of the Amulet of Yendor. There might be ways to go back. There is also the possibility that using orbs from parallel worlds may be 'tainted' and might keep you from finding the true end - escaping with the Amulet of Yendor - and you need to find another way to collect the orbs. That's my theory though.

Dang it I can't even transmute meat to poop without some crazy new theory keeping me on the cauldron for 6 minutes

2:56 Dunk's recent video also reminded me of this. Thanks for the fish, each unique orb adds a fish to our Holy Mountain.

clearly we are supposed to put all of the fish from the holy mountains into the cauldron

If you take the video from 5:45 to the end, reverse it and put in a spectrogram, you can see the phrase "the space in between two halves" repeated over and over.

I, for one, think it's an incredibly appropriate way to get the amulet of Yendor. For what is alchemy if not ripping what you want from God's hands via some convoluted trick?

The rickroll could, in fact, be a clue. The obvious puzzle (the QR code) and the hidden noise puzzle (which makes the same QR code) could be a reference to the Emerald tablet of Hermes. That which is below is like that which is above, and that which is above is like that which is below, to accomplish the miracle of One Thing. Both puzzles lead to the same thing on purpose.

I'm amazed that Noita's eye and cauldron secrets are so well hidden they've still yet to be discovered. It will be a historic moment in gaming when they're finally figured out. As a crazy theory, has anyone tried bringing a live fish to the cauldron while it is filled with water?

Amulet of Yendor? Is that a reference to Rogue? An actual-to-god Rogue Reference in my Roguelike? Wild.

Fury, another comment mentioned this idea. But what if having that amulet is a trap for cheaters? Because it says your aren't supposed to have the 34th orb. I think you should go through the puzzles more and see if theres anything different for a non tainted Noita

Considering how the devs made it a point to leave instruction in game (no matter how cryptic) to actually complete all objectives, I feel like the eyes probably somehow give the recipe of actions you need to do with the cauldron. Considering the eyes are different for every run, that must mean the actions are file specific. It's possible the cauldron gives you a method of creating a great chest, and a way of GPSing where to open it legitimately. I wouldn't be surprised about it being a specific pixel either. We can destroy and create platforms and land at will, so creating a way to stand in a hyper specific location isn't out of the question. I mean, for God's sake, the game had me handle a Sun and Black hole to get a crown. Just doing it successfully took me months.

This is truly the "Noita gameplay vs Noita lore" meme. You know the one I'm talking about.

Has anyone tried visiting the eyes after surviving one of the endings? Same with the cauldron room, maybe something changes when the world is toxic gold. We know some things can survive the endings. What about bringing the salt in its various forms and seeing if anything changes? The eye item? People have probably tried these but it's worth suggesting

*"The sacrifice of oneself to the pursuit of knowledge* *Is the highest tribute to the gods."* - Secretorum Hermetis How noble a sacrifice, hopefully something comes of it! (I like the idea people have mentioned of it being a trap, maybe this was, if unintentionally, the right step.)

I think we're looking too hard. Researching WHAT a cauldron represents symbolically might yield results. I am reading "Kalevala" again, a 19th century finnish story about the creation of earth and the Sampo. Though, there are hundreds of wiccan / "norse pagan" and many other stories who tell of magic cauldrons and what they specifically do. I feel like there is a reference somewhere in "kalevala" that is pointing us in the direction of the "true" story.

I’ve been watching your videos for a year or two and have not commented before but just wanted to say that I think your deletion of your save file was a very respectful thing to do in pursuit of true knowledge :)

With that "thanks for all the fish" message, has anyone tried bringing all the fish from the holy mountain to the cauldron room?

I’m so fascinated by these unsolved mysteries, but have no idea how I could possibly my contribute to solving them.

One of the things that is not seems to be used but always was in the plain sight is fish in the Holy Mountain. Number of fish corresponds with number of orbs, so maybe the secret is about doing alchemy in every HM (as meat needed to make midas)

The music you played at the very end... something sounds off in the background of it. It's close to insect noises, but it repeats over and over again with little variance. I wonder if a clue has been hidden beyond our eyes...

this is such a beautiful symbolic thing and i adore how seriously you take the integrity of the intened tools and wya to play. youre honestly one of my favorite youtubers, keep up the amazing work!

Really well edited video! I see how much hard work you put into these

The space in between two halves?

You mean that in my first ever run i could have gotten 34 orbs legit but because i was just starting i died to fire

I've always kept an eye on this since your first video on it. I may not have anything to offer after reading the collective knowledge, but i'm rooting you guys on.

Lovely video, I thought for sure something was going to be solved this time. Good luck re 100%ing noita!

I love your passion Fury keep up the great work!

Dude! Starting Noita fresh. What a chad. I hope you upload some videos showcasing your progress of rebuilding. Maybe I should check out FurySquared...

Wasn't there an implication that the Eyes and the Cauldron are not connected from how one of Fury's questions was answered during a Noita dev's Q&A?

If a single pixel is kept in memory after the 34 orb runs, could it be a number of 34 orb runs in a row? or maybe some order of orb collection?

If you hold 'shift' while you click delete it will bring up a text box that ask you if you wish to permanently delete a file so that you don't need to empty your recycle bin afterwards.

I like how Noita is also an AR game for us to discover the real secrets

I just started noita, and now watching guides. This game is deeper than earth's ocean, like for real. What seems like a roguelike with wands where you don't understand a thing, when you go deeper and deeper you still don't understand a thing. What the heck actually, and playing the game doesn't help understand. Damn.

I'm not convinced that "cheating" isn't already the intended method of obtaining the amulet of yendor. Otherwise it wouldn't make any sense for great chests to randomly spawn extra orbs, and the fact that the end of everything spell provides a method of manipulating chest RNG only makes me more certain. The meaning of the eyes and the cauldron could be anything, and there isn't anything that would point to them being the real way of obtaining the 34th orb

the wasd rock has eyes

Gotta love the final QR-code is just a huge rickroll

''Nolla games laughing silently''

I was all excited to try to learn how to get the 34 orb ending to join the ranks of all the experts, just to find the emperors have no clothes. This really shows the false elitism of a certain section of this community, acting so high and mighty about beating such a hard game, telling people who use mods that they're 'ruining the true experience', etc... when in reality everyone is using exploits, hacking the game, and bypassing the system. Which is fine! But maybe people shouldn't act like they're superior for following a guide made from data mining. I'm pretty sure one of the main virtues that can (and SHOULD) be learned from things like the Kybalion and Hermetic philosophy, is humility. Quite ironic. I think I'll just beat the 33 orb ending and get the regular necklace, since the amulet is just superficial drip that only one person may ever achieve legitimately. At the end of the day, what I think is so profound and beautiful about this game is that it is a community effort, as is science, which is what alchemy was all about. "The sacrifice of oneself to the pursuit of knowledge is the highest tribute to the gods" Thanks Fury! Your content is awesome

Hi. Never commenting on youtube but I wanted to thank you for your videos and knowledge. As I first discovered this game I got in blind. (Best thing I could do) After getting the a$$ kicked and a few hours in I decided to hop on youtube to find some tutorials and help from gamers. Starting to get into the secrets and lore/possibilities of this game my fckn mind was blown. This game definitly is becoming a new kind of art and MAYBE it will be remembered forever. (Not that many people know about the game). I respect that you deleted you save files and I kinda feel the same about it. After learning about the 34 Orb and the cheats you need to use to get there I couldnt believe it anymore. In this game cheating is just not an option if you want to become a true wizard. My guess: You can obtain an ending with the credits rolling, not using cheats and 34 orbs, being on your first run ever (deleting or reseting your save) Maybe it is only even possible with your first run and nothing explored. Thanks you for your dedication. Watching your videos (+DnS, LST) is part of playing/enjoying the game for me. If i wouldnt have found it about all the secrets, maybe I wouldnt have bothered playing one of the best games in the world

Haven't beaten Noita yet but I did beat Nethack once upon a time by heavily save scumming. This is a fun Easter egg for classic Roguelike fans

Have we tried changing our approach to the eye puzzle? I've seen stuff about trigrams and various ciphers and all, as well as the dance-moves-style interpretation (lol), but what about like looking at the images separated into groups of like-facing eyes? like remove all but the right-facing eyes, etc. What about overlaying the images and looking at eyes that have all five states? or looking at which spots are not covered? I feel like this direction of inquiry would be worth investigating more. It might be like a magic eye picture from the 90s lol Could also trace lines between eyes using some particular method, or even follow the direction of the eyes using old pixel font text, or w/e (each unit = same length of line) Lots of various ideas for that kinda thing.

the eyes look to me like directional inputs on a controller: left, right, up, down, and neutral.

I wonder if transmutation of Void Liquid that the cauldron spawns with is key? Like changing the void liquid to another material before the room is loaded.

Give the eyeball puzzle to a severe schizophrenic and watch the mystery unravel in a week

clearly the Amulet of Yendor is only for the one who gets 33 orbs without killing one foe :)

Wow! You really did delete those files?😮 Years of progress gone, just like that. But starting on a new page, is something that can unlock some new insight on the matter. May The gods guide the Noita community to the answers for all these secrets. I love your content, you truly show passion for this game. 🙂 Btw what is that phrase?

I've been playing Noita since early access and in trying to explain it to other people have mostly come to the conclusion that the main theme of the game is: greed. greed for power, greed for money, etc. I was thinking the other day about how even mods/steam workshop could be a red herring intended to 'corrupt' the player, greedy to finish the game by making it easier or something. The cauldron, the eyes, and the rest of the achievements could all be linked to the Noita seeking that power - and I wonder if the inverse (as above, so below) could trigger an orb? You're literally busting apart this world at the seams - tearing through the firmament (sacred) with black holes, lasers, etc. We see angering the gods now as pretty rote, but I wonder if the gods are the ones who can give you that last orb? The gods are angered when you destroy their holy space, but not when the spell is triggered and it's destroyed regardless. Basically - I think collapsing the holy mountains is linked to the grace of the gods, and only when the noita gives up their power and refuses greed can the orb be summoned. No HP expoits, no money exploits, no mods, no breaking the mountain. The bosses (to me) seem like former Noitas, corrupted by specific influences - philosophers stone, infinite magic and alchemy, etc, and the gods who we anger, need the strength stolen from them by the other corrupted Noitas. Everything is pushing you for more more more, make a sun, kill the sun, merge the suns, do trillions of damage. What if, when you have 33 orbs, you go and give up every perk, drop all your wands, and take the stone to the cauldron as a sacrifice? idk lol think about this game all the time

the eyes remind me of the puzzle in a zelda game on the gameboy that where ever the majority of the eyes were looking, was the direction you needed to go oh forgot to mention the eyes that had no direction in zelda you ignored, they didnt affect the direction you needed to go

The noises at the end is definitely a code.

I'm not gonna lie, it's been a while since i got back into Noita. It's crazy to see that there's still so much to be discovered.

Those are some interesting noises at the very end of the video

I greatly look forward to whatever you decide to do with your fresh save file! 👁

An idea I've had about the Eye Glyphs is to use the parallel world teleport wand. Think about it; To use the wand, you have to *look* in a specific direction in accordance to where you want to go. What if you use the glyphs as a set of directions (Eye looking up, aim the wand up and so on) and teleport your way through the world, starting at a set of eye glyphs and following its directions? Where would you end up after you follow the direction every eye is looking?

Kiitoksia kaloista - Thanks for the fish could hint that we need to make some fish soup; Fill the cauldron with water, bring 1 of each fish into that same cauldron, most likely alive - also those eels from big lake

I guess we'll know for sure if Fury did this because he secretly figured out the hidden way, if he has the amulet in any future videos then.

have people searched for hidden messages through the path that the link sends you? may not be a direct path to the video itself and contain something between even though the image appearing in the game with some extra pixel for the qr code sending to the real link is more probable

Now what happens when someone randomly finds the 34th orb legitimately by extremely minute chance.

5:27 gave me goosebumps, cause i use this background as my wallpaper

I'm sure folks have already thought of it and I am far from proficient at Noita but aren't the eyes correlated to spells? I read that there are the same amount of variations of eyes as the maximum spell capacity of a wand so could it not be that the eyes translated to spells would yield a wand (perhaps unintuitively built) that when cast would produce some effect? Just my musing anyhow.

for some odd reason I was watching another vid and I realized something with the black hole spell, for a single frame (On youtube) while the black hole was ending, it looked like one of the eyes.... maybe check if the "eye" changes position in different areas? (while you were digging for the "tiny" boss the black hole was "aiming" slightly to the top left).

Unironically maybe deleting your save is the first step. I wouldn't put it past the Noita devs to put a flag in place that blocks the secret 34 orb ending if you get the amulet via the illegitimate method.

Wow. these secrets are insane :O

Imagine it being way more simple than what people are doing to solve it and the devs are just watching like "did they actually think we put cryptography on it? how didn't they find out the actual solution yet?" and laughing

Hm, I like this idea. I have a feeling this has something to do with a peaceful ending (the recent cryptic letter also had something about peace). Dumb first idea - try to explore NG28, mb there are actually 34 orbs there, only to be found with guiding powder :D (doesn't really tie to the eyes, but still)

Minä wanted that shinny precious amulet so much they couldnt help themselves but look to the outer gods for assistance

The eyes, perhaps 34 laser eyes should be brought to that location from all of the different left and right alternate realities.

What is the space in between two halves? Yes, I saw that message at the end of the video.

Everything about this game is torture, and I'm loving it.

so the "thanks for the fish" makes me think that meybe we need to put a fish for the holy mountain to the cauldron

the gods are just rolling their eyes duh

... I wonder if the fact that positional coordinates mattering for chest orb drop means that the solution to the eye glyph puzzle may give something like a seed, rather than something in that run in particular. And that a chest somewhere in that seed is located such that it intentionally houses the final orb.

I could never bring myself to hit that delete button.

And here I am left scratching my head about what the fuck have I watched, before I played Noita I knew it was hard game with physics, after playing it I've randomly encountered pyramid when I "broke out of bounds" as I thought, after curious cheating I was able to confirm existence of parallel worlds of which I've heard randomly... and yet I know absolutely nothing about this game.

What if one trigram equals two letters? On the tutorial stone above the three eyes, it says "ru-be-do" and perhaps it's a key to solve the cipher. That's also why there are never two identical trigrams following each other and why there are more combinations that what would allude to an alphabet. I think they took the text (the solution) and turned two letters into one trigram.

the space in between two halves

What did it cost you? Everything...

That bit at the end where it dont know how to pronounce the phrase, nothing further appeared on the screen and all I heard was noise in the background, which to me sounded like morse code. Secdonly, someone below posted an idea that doesnt sound crazy to me. Is the cauldron in new game+? Could some combination of sequential new game pluses spawn something, diffferent, dependingon the order of the NG+?

At this point Fury, I'm weirdly convinced that you yourself have already solved these puzzles. The puzzles themselves can only be solved by one's own hand, the fact that you feed drip us hints throughout all of your videos, the clues you put out in the background, audio and more. At this point I might have to restart my own save as well.. slowly figuring out every secret through their intended purpose might just unlock the final secrets themselves. I don't actually know, but I 100% believe you know something others might not.

Hearing about the 1/100,000,000 chance almost makes me wonder if there's any kind of pattern to where these specific chests would show up in various seeds.

They say that only an experienced wizard can do the tengu shuffle.

oh god considering the daily changing thing on the cauldron you may have to get an orb ending in correlation with it

A guy named bluePachyderm on DunkOrSlam's fish video commented: there's more to fish, the message in the credits "thanks for the fish" (Hitchhikers reference), they die to fall damage, they disintegrate with concentrated mana, and they are connected to orbs. I'm convinced fish are a part of the unsolved mysteries. Instantly thought that maybe it's fish that's supposed to go into the cauldron? Unless that was already thought of.

giga-Chad move to rip off your stolen amulet and serve it back to the gods.

What if you need to bring the Holy Mountan fish into the cauldron room? Maybe even mixed with one specific liquid too? It seems big enought and from DunkorSlams video he said that each fish stands for one orb collected, so maybe you present that you gained true knowledge and the game gives you the last orb needed, maybe it unlocks the true true ending. Or maybe the eye glyphs are like coordinates for where to open the Great Treashure chest exactly. Maybe one eye stands for one chunk, and in the middle of the final chunk is the spawn for the orb?

What if you have to finish the game in order: beat it with no orbs, then 1 orb, then 2… Maybe even collect the orbs in a certain order

Ayo there were some wierd whistles at the end of the video, if somebody has a spectrogram check it out.

Maybe the eye puzzle can be solved by comparing Noita with Environmental Station Alpha?

It all boils down to Nethack. You kids just don't understand.

Fury is trying to crack the eye puzzle and the cauldron puzzle... Meanwhile i'm amazed at myself when i reach the end of a basic run...

I hope these 3 unsolved mysteries are connected and solved. I don't care if I have to remain subscribed for the rest of my life. I want to know.

Stupid, but could the eyes be music? Like old-school ocarina c keys without A?( Maybe A is neutral, or center)

The TRUE ending: NOITA IS YOU!

Personally, I think the true ending isn’t even in the game yet, and it’s still under development.
