- This was a ton of work but also a lot of fun to make! I hope you all enjoy this video, and please let me know if there's anything else you'd like me to test out/show! Thanks for watching. ^^
Here is the fanwork I mentioned at 12:33, by satindolphin052! It's an emotional take on the "what-if" of telling the Prisoner more, and it's incredible, bittersweet, and made me cry for several reasons. Please give it a read, but also be sure to heed the tagged warnings! archiveofourown.org/works/348...
For freeing the Prisoner without dying: there's the route of literally going through every combination, or the codes for each lock can be found in the game's code. They can be found with a simple Internet search. =]

I really hope y'all enjoyed this! Even though it took a long time, I loved putting this video together ^^

What happens if you try to visit the Prisoner (edit: after disabling the ATP) through a different fire? (I usually use the one in the hidden gorge - easy to get to from outside the ship!)
@@OneVioletRose i've tried this before! You can find the subterranean lake through other means, but nothing special happens when you visit from a different place.
Oh wow. That fanfic hit hard. Thank you for sharing it.
It's as simple as do the two locks, and for the alarm bridge, just jump off your raft in a tunnel and parkour up the back of the rock formation. Might take a few tries at first but I have it nailed to a tee now. (I didn't realise the actual solution so I improvised)
That does answer my question on whether there are actual working codes for the locks
there is one thing I see that no1 has ever mentioned or even experienced.
But blowing out the lights of the house with the long bridge, if one of the owls is right over ur head on the balcony, they will do a very creepy animation where they start to lean over to look at you and then hide themself so u cant see them.
It was the first thing happend to me when i first encountered them for the first time and I freaked out
It might've just been clipping, but I've also seen a weird animation I can't prove so
Really?? O_O Yeesh, that sounds incredibly freaky. I'm glad that didn't happen to me in my first playthrough, haha!
Something interesting about the prisoner’s corpse is that they seem to be trying to cover the lantern with their hand. It’s almost like they tried to prevent themself from re-entering the simulation.
I had the same thought! 🤔
what would stop the prisoner from blowing their own lantern out?
If it didn't light until they died, I guess there was nothing to blow out
This sounds right on paper, but, as soon as you check the other fire rooms, you'll notice that many Owlks are holding their lanterns the same way. It's a normal pose.
@@robertbereza6335 Died? no it would've lit up as soon as they fell asleep.
The fact that you bowed back at the prisoner at 12:45 was so sweet.
fun fact, at the elegy house, if you just wait at the door, the next Owlk will come and open it and maybe get you, still no way to get out.
The number of times this dlc made me scream, yelp, swear, and beg the Good Lord to let me get through an area is embarrassing...
7:00 this is probably to prevent you from extinguishing the bridge while they're on it
And yet they can extinguish the dock in the second tower level on you! Found that out today while messing about trophy hunting.
@@riverpengelly what really? lmao that's amazing
But yeah them killing you isn't a big concern, but if you could defeat them it'd change the vibe a lot
@@Laezar1 oh for sure.
although i knew the owlks from the first village died, it never occurred to me that theyd have an animation for that! thanks for the video, i learned something new about the game!
The owlfolk aren’t interested in the lantern because it can be one of theirs so to avoid to accidentally kill someone they know, they try to find their owner first
I'm pretty sure the first time I got caught by an owlk I watched them die right in front of me as they were holding me, I was so confused.
Really??? I attempted to get the timing perfect for that so many times, but I eventually gave up because I wasn't able to get the precision right. That's incredible that you did it without trying to!
That’s so interesting with the reduced frights, I didn’t know there was a music change. That’s so interesting!
Omg. I’d always heard them scream as they die but I’d never watched it. That was so terrible to watch
Oh gosh, the owlk death made me cry ;w;
By the way, the message you got after disabling the ATP isn't exclusive to freeing the prisoner, you get that because you enter the dreamworld by dying with disabled ATP, not because you freed them.
Anyway, I know I'm almost two years late but this was an amazing video :3
Oh wow. That message when you try to encounter the Prisoner after disabling the ATP is amazing (I don't get why you shouldn't be able to do it though).
That "they don't even bother to hunt you anymore" thing gave me shivers. Also the Prisoner corpse is such a heartbreaking thing to see, bro was trying to cover his artifact 🥺
The Owlks' death too is so sad, although it was not that great of an idea to put the green fire in a place this close to water.
This was a great video, thank you for making it. You earned a new sub
The message is triggered from entering the dream world in general after disabling the ATP, also there is another ending for if you stay on the Stranger after disabling the ATP.
I've been looking for a video about the ai of owlks, also owlks will actually chase you further when they dash at you, had one chase me across and invisible bridge once. I bet if you turned off reduced frights and kicked them out of their dash then you coukd bring them further out of their patrol areas.
I loved the DLC so much
1:46 Wow! That is interesting how the owlks' react after only finding the lantern!
3:25 I didn't know they _could_ die! 😮 And 8:27 was a jump scare!
I really loved this. Thank you for your hard work and I hope you'll have a great day and weekend! 😊
About your second point, did you play through the DLC or see someone play the whole thing?
@@Rukalin I watched Zuriel Productions' playthrough of it. I don't remember seeing owlks just vanish like that!
@@Kyzekrem Spoiler alert for anybody stumbling across this conversation
Well, if you remember back, the way to get through that segment is to enter the simulation through a different fire and getting back there by raft while waiting for the dam to break. That last part is what's shown here. (It's also the source of the screams that happen in the simulation shortly after the dam breaks)
this is so interesting! i didn’t know their behavior had so many details :)
I know im late but in 8:48
I'm pretty sure the reason they open their mouth is because they intended on putting out your lantern. But seeing as you don't have one, they quickly opt to break your neck.
For the first one, Was funny. thought I was playing on reduced frights until I went to make a point to someone. I went into my settings only to realize I didn't have it marked. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.
3:37 now I want to see an owlk death while they're grabbing you, wonder what'd happen
I've tried to get that to happen a few times, but it's extremely difficult to time it right, haha.
@@ZurielProductions can confirm, just tried xD I can say the dam breaks after 13min and if you put a 12min timer you know you're safe from the last owlk so you can enter the house and wait to hear the sound of the dam breaking (easier inside the house since the music stops)
but first try I was too late and second too early
I might try again another time, I think it's something like 6-7 sec after the dam breaks that you should try and get grabbed
@@ZurielProductions I did it!!! It's not that exciting they just drop you while they disapear but it still does work.
My timing was :
1) wait at the bottom of the stair after the last owlk entered (if you're 12minutes in you know it's the last one)
2) Wait until you hear the dam break (you hear it better if you enter from the hidden gorge rather than the tower)
3) set a 5s timer and when it's over run up the stairs and get grabbed (it was very close so I think 6s is probably better)
And yeah they'll then proceed to grab you and right before blowing off your light you'll be dropped and see them disappear, no special animation or anything but it does work.
It's probably not worth your time but it's still cool to see, and it must be such a clutch moment if it happened to someone randomly (though if you're in another area you can just re-enter anyway but shhh =p),
@@Laezar1 Oh wow, nice job!! I'm glad to hear it's possible, and I'm very impressed that you managed to do it. Good to know it's not too much of a difference; thanks for sharing your discoveries!
@@ZurielProductions didn't expect an answer 9months after haha
but yeah I remember having to time it exactly to make it work, definitely way too much effort =D
This was awesome
Nice of you to do all this research!
Nice!
Dude the thumbnail spoiled it for me argh
the owlks are basically owls and elks so the name is fitting
And also fanon
@@quantumblauthor7300 true morgan freeman picture
Can Owelks miss a lunge? Or when they go to attack are they guaranteed to reach you?
One lunged at me and I was able to jump off a balcony before it grabbed me. I don’t know if you can get away by running on foot though
They'll only miss if you manage to dodge them somehow, which is very difficult to do!
Wait… How did owlk die? You weren’t even in the dreamworld area where that should happen :O
One of the dream areas does not drown with the rest. If you set things up properly, you can be at one dream fire while in another dream area.
Can you outrun them during a chase?
You can, until they lunge for you. At that point, you're almost certainly caught.
can someone explain why the owlks "die" after the dam break? it dont make sense to me
The only ones who die right after the dam breaks are the ones from the first "village", which gets flooded. The fire (and their lantern) is extinguished, so they get forcefully ejected from the dream world. But since their real bodies died long ago, they can just feel their mind quickly fade into nothingness (or at least that's what I imagine), which explains why they look like they're agonizing. The Owlks from the tower only die near the end of the loop, when the tower finally collapse, and the Owlks from the hidden canyon will presumably live forever in the dream world, or at least until the building they're in collapses.
@@lordrath9894 oh, i thought the owlks just teleported back to a place or something like that
@@loldanilin well, they kinda do... They teleport back into their dead bodies 😭😅 or they just staight up disappear cause they got nowhere to wake up, idk.
@@lordrath9894 yeh, outer wilds is a great game, they represent death in way that is so idk wholesome i guess, like in the ending you die to make a new universe, it makes you fell that you’re important even though you’re so small compared to the eye of the universe.
