When I replayed NieR Automata on Xbox, I did the E ending, and a few days later, I got a message from some random person on my Xbox. I thought it was a spam message or something, but opened it up to find it was someone thanking me after my data was used to help them in the ending. That moment has really stuck with me, what a game
that's awfully sweet of them to remember your username
+
That clinches it. When I can finally get Nier, I'm doing that
I'll screenshot the names if I have to
That's amazing! ☺
Beautiful, I love Nier: automata so much
It’s actually 47 seconds you wait until you can inject yourself in Hitman. I love it.
also if you weigh yourself on any of the scales he weighs 47
@Matt YT I saw that and Bangkok and also on the walls, there are 4 butterflies on one and 7 on the other
I do like the newer titles but I actually miss the older games I don't understand why they've now made them episodic it's bull in my opinion
@@jamiematthews4176 they stopped that after Hitman 2. And every single bit of all 3 games is available now.
@@jamiematthews4176 WHy
"Agent 47 took another nap" is one of the best ways to hide spoilers in the achievement list
The achievement name actually hints at how to get the ending, since you have to wait 47 seconds before you get the prompt
it's amazing.
IKR? Many achievements spoil the heck out of anyone who sees them.
Portal 2: "Lunacy"
Description: "That just happened"
Not a single hint on how you get it, until you get it at the end of the game.
@@RubyCheetahCub How I love completely non-descriptive achievements that you're going to get anyway. Basically a teaser for what's going to happen in the story.
Fun fact about the Nier Automata ending E version of Weight of the World, the chorus singing in the background when the players come to save you is all of the dev team, including Yoko Taro himself.
It's a beautiful song
Wow The Devs are gods
That Nier Automata ending sounds weird on paper, but in the moment... I don't know, something about the music, the questions, the cooperation of players just made it feel like the most meaningful moments I've ever had in a game. Especially as it requires a real world sacrifice, and you know that everyone whose name you see has done that.
It also makes you feel AWFUL for losing with help, since (as far as I know) that's it for them. They wasted their assistance in *you*, the incompetent fool who can't get it right.
I lost so many more lives than I saved... And, odds are, one day the pool of names will dry up.
@@austinknight5881 I'm betting the characters get reused. While I'd love to believe in the shere generosity of gamers I feel the number of times people needed help outweighed the number of people who deleted their data.
So deleting your data probably just adds you to a pool that other games will pull from. Maybe you can only pull any specific name once but their name will probably also show up in another game.
There is no way they designed that mechanic with the possibility of it drying up.
@@metazoxan2 yeah, the first thing I thought of is that, if each name only gets added to the pool once, how can each person approaching the pool, get SIX names out of it? You can't remove names six times as fast as you put them in.
+
I got this ending playing offline, so I'm pretty sure I just kept on saying "no" whenever offered help. And yes, I died A LOT 'cos I suck at shooters.
The secret ending to this video: Luke suddenly shows up to talk about an eighth secret ending, but it turns out to be about an ending where you have multiple choices that all lead down to the same dark finale. Yes, my friends, that's right. A goddam Ellening.
He has form. We all remember the penguin
i agree on this tho.
You unlocked the Ell-ending
"The Ellen-ding": A compilation of all the times Ellen did the ending outro of every single video existed.
@@VonBlade It's surprising that Blades has been so... Normal... Considering that.
Can’t forget in Prey (2017).
You find out about Alex’s escape pod and can find the keys to it.
But if you do you find out it’s all a simulation and you failed by abandoning everyone.
And then you die. Because they cant trust you, I'd bet
I loved that game and recently replayed it again and I'm annoyed Bethesda never made a Prey 2 its was such a unique incredible experience. I really hope we get a Prey 2 at some point.
My unintentionally got this ending after doing the psychopath run and killing EVERYONE and used the self-destruct keys to blow up the space station.
There's the great ending of The Outer Worlds where instead of giving the ship to the board or the resistance, you just warp it into the sun and skip the final boss.
"Training is Important 47." -Diana Probably
I loved that. Wasn't intending it on my first run-through but saw I had the option and couldn't resist.
There's the great ending of Outer Wilds where you just fly into the sun.
Yeah, that was fun. 😁
That's only if you're doing a low intelligence run, though. You pick the [Dumb] option to fly the Lost Hope into the sun, where you and everyone onboard explodes and dies, and Halcyon is doomed.
There's another secret component to one of the endings in Cyberpunk. For "The Devil" your character had to ensure that they did not kill Oda in their boss fight & go back to save Takemura during one situation. They will then both join you in storming Arasaka. While the ending itself isn't a secret, a lot of people miss the option.
Ok, now I know the ending of the Patch 1.5 run I just started. Thanks for that!
@@Donnerwamp I knew about the storm the tower ending... didn't realise it had so much extra to it.... so yes... my new ending :)
@@Donnerwamp I honestly hope you're not being sarcastic when you're the one in the comment section of a spoilers video. If you're being genuine then no problem.
@@cd5sircoupe No, I was sincere. I've got the game on release and did three runs for each beginning and another run on my corpo start where I did the solo assault on Arasaka, but I didn't know that you could get Goro and Oda on your side for this. That'll be the goal this time.
@@Donnerwamp Alright cool. It came off a little sarcastic to me, but I wasn't sure. Technically having Oda there doesn't really change anything, just another set piece. Also, don't miss "The Devil" tarot card if you're a completionist. It doesn't carry over when you reload into the world after the ending, but it's nice knowing you got it.
And as a bonus, if you go for Rogue's ending, don't miss the special Caretaker's Spade. A reference to the boss enemy's weapon in Witcher 3: Hearts of Stone's questline. I personally forgot to grab this one, it's in the jungle/forested area.
The Katamari music being added to Inside was unexpected, but very funny xD
Okay, not to be that guy, but calling Hades the Greek devil is a little much. He along with Hestia was actually the least of an asshole among the Greek gods. The one time he actually punished someone was when Theseus and his buddy wanted to kidnap his wife. Whom he actually formed a functional relationship with.
Yeah, most of Hades's bad rep comes from his silly association with the Christian Devil. The rest is just because death is scary. If I had to deal with an Olympian, he's pretty much top of the list, which is helped by at least one major (if secret) cult who believed he's also Dionysus.
@@boobah5643 Wasn't that Dionysus thing with Zagreus himself?
As far as I know Hades was connected to riches below the earth, like gold diamonds and so on.
Who cares it’s all fictitious 😂🤣😂
@@drizztdourden666 Guess what? I do, because I had to fucking learn this in school. Plus mythology was and still is one of my favourite subjects
@Áron Tüske pfft ROTFLMFAO 😂🤣😂
The E ending for Neir: Automata is on another level. It's so beautiful and filled with emotion. Watching this made me tear up all over again thinking about my end run and the fellow gamers that gave up their time and effort to help me succeed...and when the time came, I could do nothing but do the same for someone else. Absolutely wonderful ending.
Let us also not forget the various questions where the game is essentially testing our resolve to keep going and if we truly find meaning in what we do. "Do you want to give up here?" "Do you think games are just silly little things?" "Do you think there is any meaning to this story?" I didn't mind the tears streaming down my face as I was booted back to the questions again and again and every time I chose to stay and persevere. Then I got that question, accepted the help and remember feeling like I was a child again, finding out the joys of playing alongside others in online multiplayer. Thing is, I'm not too big on competitive, but I love playing cooperative games. And so in the end, I felt I could make no other choice but give help where I have also received. And sent a message similar to the ones I've gotten from the other players cheering me on as I was fighting. It was beautiful.
Are the other players actual people or is the game just saying that? How do you know if your save data was destroyed saving another player?
@@tetov1620 I’m not sure if the names are completely made up, but the sequence wouldnt work if there were no made up names and only the sacrifices of other people. After all, someone had to go first. Also I don’t think your save data is ever actually destroyed, otherwise there would be a net negative of save data even if every single person sacrificed their data
@@ChaosDeary oh ok, still a cool concept but I guess it can't be done without some made up names.
@@darklord884 1000% agree with you.
I like how the secret ending where you leave the island in Far Cry actually enhances the weight of the true ending. Knowing what happens if you fail, it serves to make the good ending be more impactful, satisfying, and emotional. I wish more game developers considered things like this and added them to their game. It makes games more immersive.
Yeah, if I can screw up the story I'm more invested in it. Otherwise I could watch a movie. Without the possibility of failure (not just dying but in the story too), success is less rewarding.
In contrast, Far Cry 5's true ending makes the other endings not seem that bad at all, and New Dawn makes the true ending from 5 the absolute worst possible outcome.
I really love Nier:Automata's ending E, it's probably the only time I've been pleased about a game deleting my save data. And the music is really, really good too
Same here. Ending E is probably the most impactful moment in video games I’ve ever felt.
I get all teary eyed whenever I see ending E. It was a huge twist to me, and seeing all the messages of other players just hit me
I'm upset I messed it up for myself. I didn't realize what it was, and felt like I'd grabbed the golden tanuki suit in mario.
And so I tried to die.
And googled what was happening.
And let god knows how many other players data get erased.
I feel so bad about that. And its even worse cause I didn't even give mine up cause I had another couple endings to do myself. I did it later, but not on that run. Going back and wiping it did feel like an excellent goodbye though.
@@MercuryA2000 If you're playing on PC you can backup your safefile right before making the descission so you still have your safestate.
You get the same ending even if you don't delete your save
10:40 Hades being evil is a very common misconception. By actual lore he's actually quite chill, just, and helpful towards the other gods.
I mean he is an ass as depicted in the game but like in the game he takes his job of ensuring souls reach the netherworld to their final resting place very seriously.
My guy, did you just refer to the ancient greek religion as "lore"? lol
I believe the only bad things he did were kidnap his wife and force her to marry him. Pretty sure every last otger greek god does somethibg terrible on a weekly basis, Zeus on an hourly basis.
@@jaredcrabb the funny thing is that isn’t even across all writings of Greek myth in some she fell in love with him
@@WildGalaxy That's what lore is! Lore didn't get invented with fandom and video games. It encompasses all mythology!
The thing Andy didn't mention with Hitman 3, the time it takes for the secret ending to be activated, is exactly 47 seconds.
2B and 9S aren't the only ones saved in Ending E. A2, the true heroine of the game, also appears reassembled at the very end of the cutscene.
One of my favorites was in Prince of Persia:Warrior Within. After getting all the upgrade pedestals, you gain the water sword which kills the Dahaka, saving Kailena, and getting the true ending, as proven in Two Thrones as she's with you at the start.
Killing the thing that's been chasing you through the whole game is incredibly satisfying.
I don't have the best words for it, but the E ending to Nier Automata is the most beautiful video game ending I've ever played. There was just something so human and...final? about the whole thing. I cried genuine tears about something that amounted to some little galaga ships on a credits screen. Deleted my save data with pride.
In the original KoTOR, there is a hidden third ending were Darth Malak is turned into a dancing Twilek, thus skipping the final boss fight altogether. The only way to get this ending is by entering a cheat code.
dancedancemalak
Reminds me of the "you sir, are a dancing fool" ending from VtM:B
I would say add another weird secret ending for The Witness where after beating a ton of challenges, (and sitting patiently through a 40 minutes long lecture) you unlock an ending where you wake up as (presumedly) game creator Jonathan Blow and take a small stroll though his home, seeing puzzles everywhere you look.
Can't you do that by lining up the sun and the first gate? Or are there two secret endings? O.o
@@Crisjola you're right. The JoBlow ending is at the start with the sun. The one I was thinking of was where you go into the penthouse of the puzzle architect or something. There were a few endings I think
The best secret ending to the Witness is where you refund it and get all your money back instead of giving anything to Jonothon Blow.
Yeah, that game sure is connivingly pretentious.
The "space" ending in cyberpunk isn't a secret, any ending with johhny (the secret one mentioned in the video or the less secret one of letting him go with rogue) both give u this ending. The only difference is the mission itself.
And failing the secret mission gives you gives you the suicide ending, which you can also get by just shooting yourself on the rooftop. No cinematic, just crushing voicemails during the credits.
There is one other small difference and that Rogue is alive in the secret ending and not in the normal version.
@@Slayen This is the real reason to do this mission, saving Rogue.
I was gonna say...there's no "secret" ending. Just a secret way (storming Arasaka with Johnny) to go about getting to a number of the endings.
Secret mission then thx
Constant: “Wouldn’t you rather just inject yourself and work for me again?”
DM: “Ok that’s gonna be a persuasion roll with disadvantage..”
Constant: *20!!*
That's only 1 roll though, and it doesn't account for modifiers, so the other roll could have been a 1, or your modifier could be low
Nat 20 only applies to attack rolls and death saving throws. It does not apply to anything else unless otherwise stated.
You also missed the second roll.
@@azuredragoon2054 And you get nothing for landing on Free Parking, but sometimes house rules are just fun.
@@daviddaugherty2816 Free Parking breaks Monopoly really badly, though, since it breaks the outflow of money mechanic which prevents the game from turning into a stupidly long, drawn-out affair. Meanwhile, natural 20 is between you and your DM (though the DM should really consider why they created and allowed a skill check which no one could succeed in the first place - that's the bad design right there, and it's perfectly acceptable not to allow a skill check in a given circumstance).
Johnny, exasperated: I genuinely thought that wasn't going to work!...
The new Hitman trilogy is really interesting, it begins and ends with a training level...
And not only that, HITMAN 3's alternate ending is a fitting bookends to the very first game of the franchise, Codename 47.
It's not a NEW trilogy.....it was a newer game that completed the storyline...
Also new? It's 2 years old. 😒
I see what ya did there.
@@ashtonoak4370 I mean it’s there latest hitman trilogy
@@ashtonoak4370 it’s one year old. Year 2 just started.
A tip: it would be very usefull if you guys made chapters on the videos, so if someone wanna skip a game cause they don't want spoilers for that specific game they only need to click a button and not guess where to jump to
Ooh yes please! This is a great idea!
Often times, there is someone in the comments who does the time stamps for this very reason. I often just fast forward the bit I don't want spoilers
@@DucklynStark me too... But it would be easier to have chapters and it's not that much more work for the uploader
@@sessasidney I did not know that, thanks for informing me 😁
Kind of like CC? How some creators have it while others don't?
@@DucklynStark yeah, the uploader can write the CC (but YT make automatic translations from voice to text pretty good for CC also) as well as chapters, when uploading the person can just select where each part of the video starts and put a title for it, then when we are watching a button to skip the chapter ou jump to one specific appears on the progression bar. It's pretty easy for them to do it, takes like a couple seconds. A lot of creator even do it marking when they are talking about sponsors and you just click and skip it... Sorry, to long
At the end of Battlefield 4, if you fail to give the choose either Hannah or Irish, your ship actually blows up instead, and it's heavily implied that the war is lost.
I found this by accident, and it actually shocked me quite a bit.
Of course, the ending is non-canon, according to the stupid 2042.
"Waiting for secret death situation" probably doesn't fit the "best" secret ending category. You can wait too long to get to the vault at the beginning of Fallout 4 and the nuke gets you. Sounds like another list: 7 worst ways where waiting kills you.
@@carlsiouxfalls Well, they have a list of "7 times games were sick of your nonsense." One of them is for Deux ex: Human Revolution, which starts with a hostage situation, and if you mess around exploring instead of starting the mission time is ACTUALLY passing, and it leads to hostages getting killed. Not an ending, obviously, but it is about waiting too long at the start of the game.
Andy: besting Hades for the family reunion
Me: besting hades for all the Romance options - I JUST NEED THEM.ALL TO BE HAPPY 😭
11:06 “As for the *House of Hades”*
YOU HAVE NO IDEA HOW MUCH MEMORIES THAT LINE BROUGHT BACK-
19:20 thank you for this gift Andy. Got me actually laughing out loud and not just that exhale through the nose laugh.
My favorite one is the "and they all lived happily ever after" from Devil May Cry 5 because it's so sarcastically dark and it's so sudden 🤣 They even roll the credits extra fast!
In _LEGO Lord of the Rings: The Videogame,_ once you reach 100% completion, you can go back to Bag End and watch a final cutscene that shows the Undying Lands scene.
I love how Jane is reading an actual script, that she likely assisted in writing, trying to tie up the returnal secret ending and is still not fully believing thats how it went down.
Like me trying to figure out why my bank account is empty after entire weeks of boozing and eating out lol
Edit “horrible flesh catamari” weirdly accurately describes my own flabby human body 😅
I'd like to believe they all write each others entries without letting them see it before recording and throw stuff in to try and trip them up.
'And one of you is basically the devil.'
*Dons his Greek Mythology Hat*
OK, Hades was NOT the devil. He was a firm, but fair, ruler of the afterlife. That's literally All Of The Afterlife. The Heavenly Isles of the Blessed, the Purgatorial Fields of Asphodel, and the Hellish Tartarus. He just has a bad rep from the media trying to Christianise a whole Mythology and being a bit grumpy about having Literally All the Damned Paperwork in the Afterlife to deal with.
*Removes his Greek Mythology Hat*
OK, rant over. Carry on.
Agreed. Whilst Hades did rule over the underworld (which did include Tartarus, the closest the Greeks got to Hell), he was typically not the Devil as Judeo-Christian religions would define the role. Accounting for Tartarus, that realm is where the truly "sinful" characters were punished, but they were extreme cases (Tantalus, Ixion, etc.) who were usually punished by OTHER gods. Hades basically regulated a land of shades.
I always try to simplify it by telling people that he's not the God of death, he's the God of the dead
@@luxtobeyou That is definitely true - Thanatos is the God of Death, but beyond a source (i can't remember which) describing him as unkempt and detested by all the other gods, he's not a malicious force either. In fact I'm not aware of any myth in which he's an active participant.
@@TheBlackSeraph I can't remember the source on this so if I'm wrong, that's my bad, but I'm fairly certain there's one myth where he's close to a main character. Basically it's someone's time to die but another god (probably Apollo due to all of his failed attempts at love with mortals) keeps interfering and trying to get their death pushed back until Thanatos just gets fed up and does it anyway because otherwise the backlog of the dead gets too out of hand.
@@calebhughes975 Sounds vaguely like Sisyphus who, in some versions, Thanatos was sent by Zeus to take him to Hades, but was captured by Sisyphus. No one could die, so Sisyphus was forced to free him, then was killed and sent to Tartarus. I did read that he appeared in plays more than myths, but I don't know much more than that.
Jane mourning the inability to smooch Johnny Silverhand is an absolute MOOD.
Especially since people have invented mods where you can have sex with him. And Keanu approves.
@@darklord884 *Keanu's* sheer joy at people loving/wanting to bone Johnny brings *me* endless joy. The man GETS it.
And taking solace in gazing at his cheekbones. 🤣
In Outer Wilds if you perform one of two particular actions in the game you can destroy the fabric of spacetime and are treated with the credits with the background music replaced the main theme played by a kazoo chorus.
I will never not cry about the ending in Nier:Automata.
Bullet hell through a veil of tears XD
Again and again and again.
Same, it’s basically an automatic reflex at this point. I will tear up constantly when I hear that ending.
I've never played Nier Automata but that is the best ending I have seen in a game. I now want to play the game.
Because somebody mentioned Outer Wilds here, that game has some fun ending involving messing with black/white hole mechanics.
An experiment set up in one of the labs shows you that something actually leaves a white hole moments before it enters the black hole. Soyou can shoot your camera drone into a black hole, and very briefly you'll see two drones. If you manage to turn off said black hole at the correct time, you have two camera drones... and then existence crumbles.
And then later, you find another black hole that allows you to do this with YOURSELF, resulting in you meeting with yourself in a time loop and freaking out over the damage you're inevitably doing to existence by being in two places at once. Dialogue options include the ability to simply scream at each other in all caps.
100% worth giving up your data in NieR Automata because you get to help a player in need and it makes the game vastly more impactful.
Besides you can always just start a new game, travel to the barrels, input the code and unlock free rein of chapter select. That's what I did and it only took a few sessions before I was back to my pre-deletion stats, with more of the 26 endings unlocked than before, and with as many collectibles.
The Cyberpunk secret ending was absolutely nuts to get through. I was level 50 on normal and the worst part was the lobby. After that it wasn't too bad. Having to sit through the 5 minutes every time I wanted to try again was frustrating though.
I've done that ending recently. You can always skip the credits and load autosave (Smasher's rockets surprised me my first time). The autosave might be a thing of newer patch though, I'm not sure there.
So, how many times did Andy have to go through that Mendoza mission before he could hide his horror at the wine-press kill?
Some of these games they need to replay just to capture footage. For Hitman wine press kills, Andy probably has a hotkey.
In timeloop game Outer Wilds it's possible to literally break the universe, which leads to the secret Kazoo ending. While not the "true" ending, it is arguably the best ending. It's not too deeply hidden, and hilarious to see someone stumble upon it during a normal playthrough :]
It's definitely an amazing end credits song :D
Isn't there also joke quotes next to the creators?
Wait, I never knew that. How do you get it?
@@sohairtayyabbutt1456 spoilers for the game but you basically have to make an object be in two places at once
The quickest way to do this is to get into the ember twin lab (the one with all the black hole tech) set it up so you get time travel, and cut it off before the other scout can go through.
@@Kalion-mi1zcThanks! I've yet to play the DLC so I'll remember this for when I do that.
Just as an FYI the 'secret' ending in Cyberpunk 2077 is the mission itself, the post-climax ending ('Sun' I believe) is exactly the same as if you let Johnny take over your body and do the run with Rogue. In the game there are 4 possible ways it could go - Sun, Star, Devil, or Temperance, and you get to go to space in the Sun and Devil endings (although probably not for the best reasons in Devil)
Hotel Dusk: Room 215 for the Nintendo DS has a great addition to its ending depending on some factors. If you manage to not get a single game over, an additional scene showing the proprietor of the hotel, Dunning, be reunited with his daughter who had been kidnapped over a decade ago. And if you manage to complete a new game plus, signified by a star on your file, and complete a few additional tasks, you'll get an ending in which protagonist Kyle gives new friend Mila a keepsake from her childhood, and the ending with Dunning's daughter reveals her face. For a game that looks like a love letter to A-ha's "Take on me" music video that makes you hold the DS like a book, it's got a pretty amazing amount of secrets.
I never see Hotel Dusk get enough love. Had an absolute blast with that game. Though the puzzle where the solution was to close the damn ds stumped young me for so long, but once I realized was a really cool moment. I bought the game awhile back to play through it again and didn't end up getting a chance to go through it. Might have to rectify that.
I love the Time Paradox ending of Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater.
Because it is a prequel, killing major characters like Ocelot will get you a game over screen with curious calls from Campbell from the future telling you there is a time paradox.
If you die regularly, just by playing the game, the "Game Over" letters gradually turn into "Time Paradox" over the course of 2 minutes or so.
Surprised payday 2's secret ending wasn't on the list. In a game that's already bonkers as it is, the secret is even more so
no lie, if the Nier: Automata section had gone on even a *second* longer I would have started crying. even while the ending was being described had me choked up, and the moment the music kicked in at the beginning of the segment I felt my chest constrict. while the emotional impact of Ending E is great, however, I do believe one of the other endings could have been covered as many of them are much more bizarre or silly - the "death by eating a fish" is just the tip of the iceberg. might I suggest Ending Y, which will hold special significance for those of us who played the original Nier (Gestalt)?
Canonically, all of my Far Cry characters are huge cowards.
Oh great, now I'm at work crying over how Weight of the World goes from "I"m only one girl" to having a full backing chorus when you accept help.
Now make sure to put Nier: Replicant's extra secret Ending E in the next vid, just because Yoko Taro wouldn't even let fans of the original know peace.
God I love this channel. The quirkiness and consistent quality is amazing. Yall are underrated
Honestly, the ending that's hardest to notice I've found for Cyberpunk 2077 is the suicide ending.
(And I've heard but not seen that the endings with River or Kerry turns out better if you stay in the city. But Judy is best romance, so no disagreements there.)
Yeah, Judy is sweet, so my fave ending is the one where you leave the city with the Aldecados and find they've got Judy eith them and waiting for you. 😊
Tbh I got the space ending, and didnt do the hardest mission, I started with jhonny ending then gave control to v and it gave me the space ending
@@lingdorn51 Yeah, the Rogue/Johnny ending is very similar to the Solo ending - only real difference is that with the secret Solo ending [spoiler]Rogue lives.[/spoiler]
The suicide ending is the only one I've done. Felt there wasn't much point trying to save myself in that situation in a cyberpunk setting, and Johnny sucks too much for me to be happy with him joyriding my body. And forget about taking down Arasaka!
Honestly, having heard the other options, I'm now pretty sure it's the best one. Just be ready for some brutal messages during the credits!
I thought that ending for inside was your character realizing that they were being manipulated by the blob all along and severing the connection
That is one interpretation, but alas, there's no official interpretation and therefore explanation for it and even Limbo.
My favourite secret ending is in Overboard!, which is generally just a short little fun reverse whodunnit where you have avoid being found out for the murder of your husband. Or you can just, you know, murder everyone else on the boat and turn into a dolphin for some unclear reason. It's so stupid and out of nowhere that I just love it.
Oh, yeah.... that turned.
Yea, except that going to space ending in Cyberpunk is not a secret. The part of attacking the place alone is the secret but end result is just the same as choosing Rogues help. You get the same 2 options anyway. And no, its not decided by one conversation, you actually have to build Johnnys trust in you in several dialogues.
Right? Don't Fear the Reaper is the actual secret, not the raid on crystal palace. While that conversation you have with Johnny might be significant towards the goal, I'm pretty sure getting the correct choices in that segment alone still leaves you below the 70 Johnny trust meter required if you made the wrong choices elsewhere through the game.
@@cd5sircoupe it does indeed leave you short. on my run i did the conversation perfectly but still had only 60 (if i remember right) with johnny when it came to choose an ending, which was not enough. and i didnt really wanted to play through everything again just for a better choice, so i did the devil ending.
@@mermidion7552 What you need is just a specific dialogue path in the oil field and you don't even have to meet kerry
Played a through a few different endings. Only one I have not seen so far is giving Johnny my body. So far however my favorite ending is riding out of Night City with my honey Panem. I really enjoyed this game.
@@alnu8355 By far the only "good" ending out of the bunch. It's actually pretty cool if you do it as fem V, you'll have Judy at the nomad camp with you as well, including a special cutscene. Everything else plays out as normal.
It feels like they gave her the shaft though, like she had her own unique ending at some point but it got canned so she's just a footnote in the Panam one. She definitely feels like the key to actually creating a solution for V's brain problem. Future DLC I hope?
I still love the secret ending of CoD Black Ops 2, where Mason is still alive because you shot him in the leg 2 times
Only the suicide run on Arasaka is really a secret ending, you still can get the V Legend ending if you let Johnny go with Rogue and choose to stay in your body
Sarcastic Jane voiceovers are the best.
Personally, I think Nier Automata's E ending has got to be one of the most impactful in the medium. It never fails to get me teary-eyed just watching it. 💔
Same. I consider it to be one of the most impactful moment in my gamer experience. It has shaped my view of video games and changed my perspective. I don’t think I would be the same person if it wasn’t for ending E.
That secret Hades ending is extremely heartwarming~!!!👍👍👍
The Nier Ending and the whole game was an outstanding experience. Getting goosebumps when I just think about it.
Whenever they mention the Hitman organisation ICA, I must remind myself that they did not defect from my local grocery store.
The secret part of the Cyberpunk ending is the means you use to get there, not the ending itself which you can also get by other means
You can also screw up that key conversation by being too nice btw
Another great video. Looks like Ending E had me tearing up like everyone else. There's something special when games make players make choices that cause them to think deeply about their actions. Sacrifice your save data for a stranger, to repay a stranger who sacrificed for you, who in turn will also sacrifice for someone else is heartwarming. Reminds me of Kojima's secret MGSV ending when all players deactivate their nukes for world peace.
I love the music over the last one 😂 massively improved!
It's not a secret ending. But a somewhat obscure one. In Prey, the game with the goo monsters, at the end of the game, depending on your past choices, you get the option to leave to go back to earth. But if you want to be a "hero", you can choose to let the shuttle go home, and stay by January's side as the station blows up around you. Granted, the game ends as you played the rest of the game, and credits roll.
I think my favourite "secret" ending is probably the one from The Binding of Isaac: Repentance. There are a ton of different endings, all weird and tragic, but the true ending had me tearing up after having played the game for a frankly unhealthy amount of time.
Could you tell me what it is or just how to get it. I beat the heart and the cutscene shows Isaac opening a chest.
@@ruhenshamraaj8728 Basically, base Isaac Rebirth has 16 endings, and every expansion (Afterbirth, Afterbirth+, Repentence) adds 2 more for a total of 22 different endings.
I thought just the term "A horrible naked flesh katamari" was good enough... then the music hit and I absolutely lost it. Bravo and well done.
The Katimari music over the huddle is surreal and I love it.
Killing the firekeeper ending in Dark Souls 3. During the End of Fire ending there's a moment where you can off the firekeeper and take the flame for yourself
That Nier one is so cool though, with being able to help others but lose everything.
Wait. You didn't buy Cerberus his ball? *YOU MONSTERS*
I'd say the Florida ending in FC6 was the best. Saved you hours of brain numbingly repetitive missions and the frustration of dealing with weapons that were designed by people who don't understand how bullets work.
Some of these are so well hidden it's a wonder they were ever found.
Yeah gotta say, Pagan Min seemed like a surprisingly decent dude despite being a psychotic despot.
The twist to the secret ending is once you play through the normal game, you realize the rebels are just as bad, if not worse than Pagan Min. One rebel leader wants to install a Theocracy were he can wed underage children while the other wants to turn the country into a narco state. So, chosing Pagan's ending really is the lesser of three evils in hindsight.
while you're waiting for him to return you listen to him torturing somebody to death
great guy
@@Feasco You forgot the 'seemed' part, guess they don't teach reading skills in school anymore.
@@PLAYER_42069 and there's an implication that Pagan will install you as the leader of the nation after some time (at least that's what he's claiming after you got to him and surprisingly Pagan is not a lier so he might be telling the truth considering the relationship he had with your mother)
I got the secret ending first. It makes the rest of the game kind of pointless.
Thank you for adding the music.
How about AI: The Somnium Files and the ending where Date abandons his detective work, his friend's daughter, and his AI companion (Also his eyeball) to instead go live in a beach town with said friend's extremely hot secretary?
Damn I remember the E ending in Nier and thinking it was some kind of bluff and ended up in tears afterwards. Worth the journey though.
There are games out there like DMC 5 where u are able to beat the final/first boss at the start and get secret endings in some
In Tales of Zestria doing this gets you the bad ending because killing the final boss early means killing him the WRONG WAY. You find out much later in the game about this so killing him then means you'll do it wrong and doom yourself.
If that ending in Hitman III ends with the beginning of the first Hitman game then doesn't that mean that it's not only hidden but the canonical ending?
Hades is worth beating multiple times to hear the absolute banger of ost during your ride back with his mother to the underworld.
How about the ending in Chrono trigger’s game plus where you beat Lavos with only Chrono and get to meet the people who made the game? Or how about the ending in Oxenfree where you basically tell yourself not to come to the island and get trapped? I mean that is another trapped in time one.
I'd add the Kaine ending from Nier Replicant. For which you need first to have multiple other endings and replay a chunk of the first part of the game
"Horrible naked flesh katamari" made me cackle SO HARD, you have no idea lmfao
Great music choice Andy
the one thing i hated abut CP2077 is the ending could of been magical but they never even tried to attempt it, if any one dares to remember that Jackie inserted the chip into his head before V so the potential to have Jackie's consciousness back up on the chip that would come back at the end to be the one to help you take down Arasaka would of been an awesome way to just round off the whole story
The Chip isn't Soul Killer, so his Engram isn't backed up just because he had the chip in him for a few seconds. V's consciousness isn't even backed up from having The Relic installed in them for (presumably) months or weeks. You have to storm Mikoshi in order to get your own consciousness scanned with the help of the greatest of AI's who is literally the creator of Soul Killer.
If you send Jackie to Vic tho, Arasaka takes his body and puts him through Soul Killer to find out what he knows. He's too far gone tho and his consciousness is somewhat... broken... He's literally there in the ending sequence, too. What fragments are left, anyway.
But honestly, thinking that Cyberpunk 2077 could have even dreamed of having an uplifting ending is really a misunderstanding of the entire genre. It's not a Science Fiction story where Good triumphs over Evil.
It's basically Cthulhian Horror, but instead of tentacle monsters and elder gods from beyond space, it's cyborgs and megacorporations. The core question is LITERALLY "Quiet Life, or Blaze Of Glory". Winning is never on the table.
The secret quest and ending Y Nier Automata was more emotional to me than ending E cause i played nier replicant before playing automata
No mention of the Mortal Shell ending where you just give up your quest, become a brigand, and spend the rest of your days drinking and playing the lute?
Inside & Limbo are not my kinda games but from a creative perspective they were both masterpieces im truly honored to have experienced both legendary games
other than the way u fight thru, the going to space in cyberpunk is also achieved through a different ending
@@robertsears8323 the aldecados ending is my fav, you leave NC with em and your love companion to find a cure for your big ol death loomin around the corner
@@robertsears8323 The ending you get if you go with Panams plan is as good as it gets. But that also depends on future dlc.
@@robertsears8323 A lot of the endings tie into your (shortened) life path choice at the beginning. So, for example, if you chose to be an outcast Nomad coming to Night City, riding off into the sunset with Panam and the Aldecados is considered a "good" ending because you finally found a Nomad family again... Even if you're going to die, eventually. It's all about the journey and not the destination. However, if you want a "good" ending where you live, supposedly, choose to let Johnny take over your body and it cuts to him either taking a bus out of Night City to restart his extended life in your body, or coming into Night City on a bus to do the same. The point is, you're already dead, but he can carry on in your body until it wears out, eventually.
Nier: Automata is the best game I've played in years. Maybe ever. Thank you to anyone who's ever been there, whether player or creative team. Seriously.
The automata [E]nding really is good. Deleting your save data is a real yoko taro move.
Cant forget about Shadow of War's secret ending. Slogging through it wasnt the most fun but the ending for Talion was worth it
One of the secret endings for hollow knight. You beat all the pantheon of God home, beating radiance and turning into something similar to the beast who gives you the hunters journal.
Far cry 6 is the only one who made me chose secret ending. All side characters were so unbearable, and MC had no reason to fight. Seemed normal to leave. Best ending that I left this game with
"Lucky for you I never throw away something useful" - Dads talking to scrap wood
"Delete your saved data to save someone"
*Backs up my game data*
"Ok"
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED WITH NO CASUALTIES
My favorite secret ending is probably the "Memory Lane" ending from Chrono Trigger. The window to get it is vanishingly small, and it's arguably even sillier than the Dream Project ending.
To be fair though, like 7 or 8 of the possible endings are set within similarly tiny windows. It's made even more complicated because most of the time those points are set somewhat awkwardly between points where the natural progression of the story takes you, but where you probably wouldn't think "hey why don't I just backtrack all the way to that stupid bucket and see if smacking Lavos RIGHT NOW matters".
And ALL of that is (or rather was) made even more difficult due to the game coming out before the internet was really even something people had, much less could be used to access information as easily as it is now...
That said, Chrono Trigger is my all time favorite video game, and has been since the first time I played it back in 1996 (was busy with Breath of Fire II & Final Fantasy VI in 95, CT had to wait in line). I have copies of it on PS1, Android, and Steam, legitimately, while also having the emulated versions for SNES and DS (which, frankly, is the best version of the game IMO). I play through the game (by which I mean from scratch, through several NG+'s, until all characters are completely maxed and I'm satisfied) at least once every couple years, and have been doing so for 20+ years now....
@@Astraeus.. Oddly, FAQs and walkthroughs were a lot higher quality in the 90s and early 2000s than they were at any point afterwards. Sometimes they were written by developers, other times just by dedicated fans - the ones on GAMEFAQS were often 70+ paragraphs long, much more in the case of games like final fantasy 12.
I guess it's because games are much more mainstream now, and less of a focus for super-nerds and such.
@@SyndicateOperative It's not just that. People in the last couple generations are just idiots who don't want to read anything without shiny pictures. Much easier to watch a walkthrough video than it is to actually read a walkthrough. It's cool that you brought up Final Fantasy, I've got some of the GameFAQ's walthroughs for a couple of them that I printed out back in the day, and yea, they're friggin huge. But that's how it was. I prefer having something physical that I can read when I need to know something, rather than having to dig through CZcams or wtv to find a video that just shows me exactly what to do. I much prefer if I just know what to do and can figure it out the "how" part for myself.
In Go Go Kokopolo there's a secret ending for the pacifist in you, if you so choose not to attack the first enemy of the game.
By the time I realized there was a secret ending in Cyberpunk my earliest autosave was at the mission right after the one with the critical choice. I've done everything else in the game but I get to replay it all again to get the final final ending.
🤣 I was like this is just like that game where your role a ball of debris around… then he says “I added the music” had me dying laughing 🤣
