I often wonder what and how many lines I missed because I noticed that already completing another quests give you some extra lines in other quests.

There are tiny things that change dialog mostly. Like at the beginning, if you get off the strider before Varl sees you ride it, then he will see it after he gives you the quest. He will yell "a strider" and Aloy will yell "its ok is with me"

I've spent countless hours on HZD since 2017, trying all the different scenarios; It never occurred to me to just leave the estate after killing the machines. Will go back to it before Forbidden West comes out.
@@ElkjaerTV I've tried so many different scenarios that were rewarding that, the fact that you found this in year 4! Like going to Sunfall before going to Meridian, or going to GAiA P right after leaving The Embrace,... I guess I appreciate the fact that they planned these different outcomes out and reward replays and different attempts. Guerilla really did a fantastic job.
@@TheMrblessed I'm a brand new player, PC, and experiencing the game for the first time. I'm absolutely loving the complexity of the storyline and all the divergent paths to take. It's nice coming around.... finding veteran players who've not encountered EVERYTHING. Gives me hope that maybe I'll stumble upon something myself as well.
@@TheMrblessed I rushed through the story and made the game harder than it needed to be. I fought my first deathbringer when I was level 12-15 on a level 20 something mission. I rushed to get the ancient armour without doing any side missions. That stormbird took me a whole day to kill after reaching the top of the mountain. After getting the armour I noticed that harder machines spawned all over the map. To make matters worst I went to the DLC area at level 20 trying to get the banuk bows. Had to run pass the first demonic machine as I spent over an hour getting one shorted. Every machine in the dlc area is OP.
I could never go through with this ending. Even though I know that no one in this game actually exists I would feel bad if someone died who I could have saved. I get attached to characters in games.

This is pretty cool. I just found a secret ending of my own. Not sure if you know about it, but I bet you do. The side quest Robbing the Rich has a secret ending. Nasan is already at the Shadow Carja fort, apparently from the start of the game. If you rescue him before beginning the quest, then instead of having to meet with the thief leader in the lakeside shack, you just tell the lady at the market stall that you already saved Nasan and tell her to stop stealing heirlooms. Probably a significant time save, too.
That's awesome. I'm gonna keep playing around and see what I find. Yesterday I learned you can clear out the Shadow Carja camps before talking to Varl and Sona near the ring of metal, but it doesn't appear to save you any time. I tried to sneak into the ring of metal itself without starting the quest, but I wasn't able to find a way in.
Not really a secret ending since the ending is the same, it’s just an alternate route. A lot of quests are like this like if you have an item someone needs in your inventory already, you can skip the hunting part of a quest. But, great tip though!
@@ace_gamer12 I don't think so. It just changes aloys dialog. She tells her about Roth not being around any more so she's gonna have to be strong etc. Kinda bitter sweet actually.
Same. I went through to obsessively platnium the rest after platnuming the base game on an original run through as I am horrible about 100% especially if I love the game. Then restarted to do a new game plus on hard mode and still let this guy die.
It's interesting though - because it's only terrible if you know the other option and know what you're allowing to happen - if you genuinely didn't hear the screams it would seem like a fine ending
@@taylorrayner1394 Also Sun King Avad, and Erend, and that one chick from the shadow carja who's name I forgot, and- damn people really thirst over Aloy huh?
Thanks for sharing! This is one of my favourite side quests in the game but I wasn’t aware it could end differently. I’m definitely not gonna let evil Ramanan get the estate tho haha.
This is what I really like about hzd, they consider even dialogs for if players decide to do things out of order. I went back to Rost's grave during the all-mother's invasion, and Aloy has a very specific line saying how she feels like visiting him even though there's an emergency going on. If you visit other places during the invasion, you will find interesting details too, such as the Aloy commenting about the merchant guy dying or her trying to find Old Greta but she went into hiding.
These is a quest where you have to get back a sword that got stolen. In the normal ending you have to rescue someone for the thieves and then they will return the sword and come to a deal. But you can rescue the guy before the quest, if you do that it cuts out a lot of the quest and the sword just gets returned.
I remember this quest , slow-walked from cauldren XI to the family home packing a chaingun just to take out the ravager there. took quite a while but it was worth it.
Not sure about Forbidden West, but that spherical device you find in A Moment's Peace is actually a part of GAIA herself. If you speak to CYAN (from the Frozen Wilds) after doing A Moment's Peace, it will hint at the machine being exactly that. Then again, the Oseram tinkers themselves comment that the device looks as if it "fell from the sky", and if you pay attention, the clues point at it falling from the general direction of the Gaia Prime facility.
To everyone, you are special Always know you are cutiful and special! Reach for your goals! be positive and do what makes you happy! You are beautiful just the way you look! I am glad you exist! Yay!!
Thank you for an interesting and informative video. Well done. 😊 I definitely heard his siter's screamsd and let her out. I got the normal ending.

An Easter Egg is a reference to, or an item from, another game (or more rarely from a movie or song).
You can actually go in the estate without doing the quest by jumping the wall on the right of the main gate by "sacrificing" a few striders, and you can go in and interact with the door and you will find nothing... Pointless comment but I thought it was a curious thing so I shared it

I was not aware of this ending, I love how well thought out this path ends up being.
Killing Olin is only faster in 100% and other category its faster to let him live.
Talking about Olin, after rescuing Olin's family, if I talk to Olin again, it doesn't give me a new dialogue as usual. Does this happen to everyone?

Didn't know about it thank you, I would of never did that ending the original is too funny when he gets snatched by the flying monster

Totally forgot how good this game looks
I stumbled upon the villa before I got the quest, killed the monsters and then talked to the brother. Then pick up the key.

what armor are you wearing in this video. I like the look a lot. edit to clarify: the armor in the segment for the secret ending.
what is that weapon you used to kill the ravage?
when do you get this icerail thing? i think in the frozen wilds dlc but how
so basically, be a heartless monster to get the secret ending, got it.
What is that ice weapon you were using?
In that case I can be satisfied with myself that I didn't discover this ending.
