@@griddmeirax I know that hehe, I played the steam ver, and finished the secret route as well without anyone guiding me, I just knew that the game could not end the way it did for the first route

@@UnknownArt_K I did not feek guilty putting the sun back because I felt as if Niko wanted this, If we knew that niko would get hurt if we put the sun back then I would have never, but that part was vague, not to mention Niko promised that she will be okay and a good child like herself will keep her promise right?
@@anasdev1553 yeah i kinda regret going back but i am gonna retry solstice while using the put the sun save, and yeah none of the original endings really resolved my emotions
I remember playing the game 4 times after the first run and then going solstice (I was dumb enough to solve the cart sketch puzzle). Now I know that I've saw additional content!
Abstract hat, serious alien child with a scarf, friendly world with deep existential problems, journal, desert, train, taming, sheep, lamplighter constantly at work, fox, wheat fields, anti thirst water pills, boxes, world's main explorer which sits in one place, tragic choice, death, broken plane, bolt which is stuck, aviator, sunrise Also in russian pink is _rozovi_ and literally means _the color of rose_ so connection between a pink flower and a rose works for me
Holy shit, I never realized that I'd tamed Rue for my first time playing Solstice. I thought they just normally knew Niko's name and all that stuff, but I guess not.
I thought I had saw already everything of the game from playing it and watching it on YT and stuff, but apparently no O.O Oneshot will always be one of the best indies ever made ^w^
OneShot is my favorite game of all time (with Hollow Knight) and I never knew you could have optional dialogues if you do the game multiple times. It sadly also shows how underrated this hidden gem is :(
I figured there would be such a thing, just one more prompt that might exist that you might have missed. Is there new dialogue with Cedric if you know Rue's name?
It has to be the longest speedrun route the game ever had. But we only have 4 speedrun routes so it's definitely something new. And maybe fun in a way.
There's also a dialogue change the first time you ask Rue about the others if you've interacted with Alula's plush fox. I know this because I couldn't figure out what I was supposed to do in the mines my first NG+ run lol
This was a thing for me, because i was an idiot. I did not know how to start the solstice run. I did not open the glowing diary while standing on the clover, so i thought i was supposed to do a normal run once again. Then i noticed the clover bed, that, as Entity has said, sends you to the beginning. Out of curiosity, i tried it, and of course, it did what Entity said. Then, i did the same again, except this time i went to Rue, and he said that i should come back later. And that's when i understood, why the bed existed at all, and this really ruined the game for me. I heard all the same dialogue and went through all the same puzzles, just to… do that again. This time i had to search for a walkthrough, so i won't repeat my mistake. Because of that, i hated Solstice. But, after i've finished it, i can say, that… i don't even know. Solstice really feels… fan-made. I don't know if i should accept the Solstice as it is, or should i forget about it and be left with the save the world/Niko ending, or be happy, because Solstice gave me a *good* ending, where eveyone is alive and well, and it is considered canon after all.
Didn't know this, very cool ! Though in future videos, can you avoid putting something like the Encounter Number in the right corner ? That's where the youtube icon appears so it ends up hard to see !
One meeting per run: *1 meeting* - she runs away and niko will answer question about seeing a fox differently *2 meeting* - _no triggers_ *3 meeting* - rue learns niko's name and tells her own. Solstice trio introductions will be shorter. There is an unused answer for Fox question which goes like "Rue?.." and kinda fits the context. I called this one meeting _completed taming_ cuz fox is your friend now and there will be no more changes *3+ meeting* - _no triggers_ but she's glad to see you again
I was thinking about making a _Rue% speedrun route_ but I cant decide if I will go for taming or all dialogue. There is like _a little difference_ in 1 run worth of time. But good thing is that I will go through the Tower only _once_ .
@@griddmeirax Well i don't know what to say, since i know very little of "speedrunning" in general, but I am sure that I will watch your speedrun, so I'll be happy to see :)
Wait, this means you can do multiple runs of the game before going the Solstice route? But you can't progress in the second run without typing solstice as password into the computer, right? Or can you?
@@griddmeirax I thought as soon as you enter solstice as password, you can only do the true ending, but you can just do a full replay of the first run even then?
@@griddmeirax woah thats weird. I wasnt aware there *was* a second run. I recently started one just to play the game again but sounds like I should keep going!
After completing the first run, the second one (ng+) is different and has more content (solstice, rue taming etc). After you beat solstice all ng+ content is gone except for the big penguin room.
Solstice is an _optional route_ that opens on the second run (on ng+) You're free to go first run route on ng+ or after beating Solstice (memory run). And *there is no limit* to amount of runs you can make. Except memory mode prohibits you from going through Solstice the second time (thats all it does aside from skin change)
Finish 1st run. Go the same route in the 2nd run. You can repeat the process as many time as you like. Even after beating Solstice. For players who came into community from someones letsplays this fact is simply mindblowing because these people do only 2 runs and ng+ isnt entertaining enough to go through so they rush to Solstice every time.

Wait, this means you can do multiple runs of the game before going the Solstice route? But you can't progress in the second run without typing solstice as password into the computer, right? Or can you?

Password puzzle replaces remote puzzle in ng+ to tease the true ending but the true ending is entirely optional
@@griddmeirax I thought as soon as you enter solstice as password, you can only do the true ending, but you can just do a full replay of the first run even then?

No its the current steam patch and that was always in the game anyway.
Rue is so cute .
in the description you have something about resetting from the bed behind the big password door
what's that about
Behind the big door on NG+ runs lies the _clover bed_ . You can already guess what its function is.
Does this work after you've done the Solstice ending?
Rue "taming" does, but you can't normally go Solstice route more than once so 4 dialogues from there will be unaccessible

just leave the mines, ur not forced to do glowing book stuff and even after that u can say "turn back" to silver while in minecart
