Every Echoes Of The Eye Easter Egg

- Hello everyone! Ive been wanting to make this video for a long time but I wanted to wait to ensure no new easter eggs had been found! As it sits now these were found pretty early on and its been pretty quite since then. There were a few more things I couldve shown but they werent really unique assets or anything like that. But I may revisit them in the future! Hope you enjoy!

another cool easter egg thats hidden in plain sight is how in the origin story slides you can still see the planet where dark bramble is now
I noticed that right away, just solidifies that these owlks we're wayyyy before the nomai
I may just have a funny definition of easter egg. When I think of an easter egg I usually think of a hidden reference to something else. So bramble. The weird spin the bottle owlk thing. The Owlk watching a reel. I didnt really think they were easter eggs. But definitely a "things you may have missed" sort of thing.
I said at the beginning some of these aren’t technically Easter eggs but I’ll show them off because they are unique and easily missed.
@@TheLoreExplorer I think that is the usual definition. An "easter egg" is something that isn't part of the narrative of the game, like a reference to something else or just a random joke, like that cat. Hidden details that may be easily missed, but are still part of the game's narrative, are usually called "secrets" instead.
They came to their universe 280,000 years before the nomai
This is a game not really many people make videos about, so for you to make them I am very thankful. Thank you Mr. Lore, very cool.
Glad you enjoy them!
I figured out what happend in the second test in a different way. In the room with the test chambers you can find some v2 artifacts in a crate off to the side. If you take one to the shrine and test it out it will explode and kill you. You'll even get an achievement called "beta tester".
The hull breach reel even signifies what actually happened in the test, never put it together until later
I wasted SO much time thinking this artifact was the solution to the alarms. I had to go back to the vault several times just to analyze the reels (this was before the update that put the reels in the log). Finally I was explaining the puzzle to a friend and was like “I need to die by the fire. But how can I do that?? There’s nothing in here but the fi- ohhhh”
I remember seeing the scratched off portrait during my first play through and finding it really creepy. Really sad instead once you discover the true meaning of it.
If you look at the antlers, you can see it’s the prisoner!
NOOOOOOOOOO
@@roofusmaximus I agree
3:25 Remember someone saying that it'd be very funny if this Easter egg was canon in the simulation and it was something left by one of the inhabitants when the simulation was created.
yoooo i found the prisoner's portrait in the extensive time spent scouring the stranger because i was way too scared of the dream worlds! i noticed the broken antler and immediately figured that they must be an important character, and the scratched out face made me pretty sure he was gonna be a friend :D
it was pretty much the only time ive been able to do that kinda thing in this game, and it honestly helped me feel a little bit more comfortable with going into the dream world now that i knew one of them was friendly, or even that they were ostracized from the group. definitely humanized the owelks for me
If you stay in the vessel at the end of the game when your solar system is about to explode you can see The Stranger in the distance floating away until it is shrouded in darkness.
3:20 that's a reference to journey to the savage planet specifically the "character selection screen"
That's awesome
When looking at the reel, you can see that it's the same owlk who enters the chambers in the first 2 tests, and a different one in the 3rd, which is kinda sad because that means that the owlk was either killed or injured by the test, or, if we're being really optimistic, just scared of doing any more tests. Although we don't find their body floating outside the breach on the stranger or anything I don't think, so that's good
They almost certainly died, the explosion ripped a hole straight through the stranger in the game. If the blast didn't kill them, the vacuum of space did.
@@connorhalloran9630 I agree, but it's nice to think since we see no other evidence, although I did just think that I don't recall seeing them having space suits, even though their ship docks don't have oxygen, which might mean they could survive in vacuums. Still probably dead though
@@Hubcat_ 200,000 years probably would do that to them for sure.
@@U1TR4F0RCE Yea, they're definitely dead now, I just meant when the accident happened. I also realized, you could check to see if they died by looking for them at the sim fires
I dunno man, it kills the player if you try use that artifact at the fires. Plus it tore a hole in the hull, so it is probably strong enough to kill a being.
4:40 its off- key echoes of the eye music!
Oh. I think youre right. Sounds a lot like what I remember from zelda but Im probably imagining it since the easter egg had me thinking about that game.
It's Elegy for the Ring, specifically. The song that plays in the shrouded woodlands when you're approaching the cabin
@@TheLoreExplorer it does! Although the cabin song is etched into my brain
Perhaps they used the missing ship in the bay to create the silencer
the devs think in everything
This isn't an easter egg so much as it is a reference, but if you damage the Deep Space Satellite, the achievement you get for it is "The Silenced Cartographer," which is a reference to a mission in Halo: Combat Evolved called "The Silent Cartographer." It's a fairly open-ended level set on an island where your goal is to find a map room that will let you locate the titular ring world's control center. It's locked, so you need to find a security station somewhere on the island to unlock it, kind of like how you can only progress in certain areas in Outer Wilds by doing something else somewhere first (for example, you can only find out what's in the Black Hole Forge by first raising it in the Meltwater District, then going to the Brittle Hollow tower on Ash Twin).
You don’t have to go to ash twin.
Just simply land upside down.
@@dompan9169But it's harder and not the intended way. Just like landing on Sun Station
@@dompan9169 My favourite solution :)
yep i found out intended way after the game - feltspar gaming@@dompan9169
Interesting fact! In the prisoners vison at the end of the dlc we can see not only our solar system and the owlks, but two others as well! My guess is they're set ups for future dlc!
(The rest of the comment is just theories on what said dlc might be or how they'll be implemented)
Given the missing Owlk ship on the stranger id wager the next dlc may start with us finding said missing ship and it being pre-programmed to take us to one of the neighbouring solar systems (Perhaps it's cloaked on timber hearth so they could do what they did with the stranger and ret-con it to having been there the whole time.)
The nomai's original solar system. We know for a fact the nomai that came to our solar system whernt from either of the two solar systems we see as the signal goes past them to reach the vessel, as such if they did attempt to do something like that it woulr have to be abandoned. Perhaps they used all their own natural recources like the owlk's but rather than fall into despair they ventured out into the universe and became the nomai as we know them. (Personally id love to explore a darker side of the nomai)
The interloper: This is the one im the most confident about, given we know absolutely nothing about the interloper like how it came to our solar system or what caused it to release the ghost matter in the first place... The owlks had a much larger role then we thought before the nomai so it could be safe to assume some other species where observing the nomai and as they grew too close to discovering the eye's location they sent the interloper to wipe the nomai out.
Unfortunately, they did claim EOTE was the only DLC they're making :( I hope they were just playing because more DLC would just be the best
Thank you for explaining that the secret reel can be found elsewhere but it’s partially burned. I saw someone showcase it in a different video and I was very confused how I had seen it already despite never going that secret route. Guess I had forgotten the burned version and wasn’t sure how I knew what I knew, haha
also I know this definitely isn’t the mystery guy at 3:40, but he really reminds me of the Protostar Corporation guy from the defunct mmo Wildstar. Same green skin and goofy face with the tall forehead. But that’s where the similarities end
These are really cool! I like the cat most. Also that daylight mod made it all so much easier to see and do for you.
I remember my confusion when finding the cat Easter egg by mistake. I never saw the cat though.
i was pissed because i was so sure it was the key to getting past the statues.
@@MaestroAlvis Same here.
you can tell what kind of game this is that despite seeing the thumbnail, hearing the purring and the demeaner I was more than half expecting some eldrritch horror to be purring just behind us having consumed half the map.
I always interpreted the burned experiment reel to mean the slides were burned out during recording by the explosion. Pretty sad that that's not what happened, but scared owlks is funny, i guess
honestly the full thought process doesn't really make sense to me. maybe they have a wider aversion to failure, in general (pure speculation)
@@MaestroAlvis remember that this isn’t just a failure. It’s a very explosive failure. They may have wanted to destroy the evidence so that a saboteur doesn’t use one of those lanterns inside of a fire room and kill everyone there. Remember, they were just burned (figuratively) by a saboteur who was helping end the universe.
4:33 The korok was playing the music from the party house in echoes of the eye, lol
One of my favorite achievements in the game is “Celsius 232.78” with the description of “This knowledge isn’t going to forbid itself!” And to get it you have to burn a slide reel at any fire/campfire. It’s such a hilarious achievement to me
I booted the game up trying to find the art room and I think they removed it. The room with the Owlk just has a bunch of shelves instead of a path turning right. A bit unrelated but on one of my attempts to juke the Owlk I ran to the invisible bridge thinking starting there might make it easier. What I didn't realize was that he sees you go there and immediately starts moving in that direction. So I'm just casually running back without a care in the world when all of a sudden the Owlk comes out of the darkness and instantly charges at me. I got the worst Owlk jumpscare of my life for an easter egg that doesn't even seem to exist anymore. Oh well I guess it's better than going in blind just to find a troll painting.
They didnt remove it. they just changed it. There is a shelf of what seems to be wine there. If you find the right bottle its actually a switch to enter the art room.
@@TheLoreExplorer Ah ok that makes sense. I'll try it again later.
That's really neat, i didn't know about the zelda easter egg, nice find
About the hidden portrait, I don't know if the character is a reference to anything, but the laser background is a classic school yearbook photo background
1:00 I was actually kinda bummed that none of these reels were viewable. Was like of damn you can get here! But then couldn't pick up any, except that one.
Not sure if this counts as an Easter egg, but at the end vision you give to the Prisoner, there is a harmonica playing for a short while whenever it shows the Nomai arriving to Dark Bramble as a nod towards Feldspar
The music isn't from The Legend of Zelda.
Its actually Outerwild's Elegy for the Rings by Andrew Prahlow.
Played on out of tune recorders, same as when you destroy the fabric of spacetime and you get the main theme in bad recorder and kazoo
it seems no one is talking about the owlk in endless canyon watching a slide reel, and when you focus your light on the screen, it turns black and you can hear a screech
@@LincolnLoria-lh4fb not really an Easter egg as such. More an important story implication. I actually talk about that in my latest video ::D
I had no idea it was actually part of the story! I ran across it before I learned about how to get to the first forbidden archive(via the underground tunnel) so I thought it was just a cool implication. Also love the videos!
IMO anyway. It tells us a lot about the inhabitants state of mind. Not only do some inhabitants sort of remember the real world exists. They break the rules and watch forbidden reels. Plus they act scared if they get caught.
3:32 I think the painting one is a joke about like school photos. they use the same background a lot of old schools used and the outfit feels very teenager-y
Laser-Disco Big Head Guy. Tanks for this Sentence.
5:08 the description of the achievement you get for finding this Easter egg is a reference to. It's called 1/900 and the description of the achievement is ya ha ha you found me the same thing the koroks say when you find them.
So glad to see the silencer featured here after I mentioned it in a comment on another video :) Thanks for reading the comments @The Lore Explorer
2:47 did they change this recently or is it affected by Reduced Frights settings? Cause I had to pull a secret lever that's visible when you leave the artifact behind.
Yeah. It was changed in the most recent update so its actually hidden by a wine cellar now. You have to turn one of the caps of the wine bottles!
Unfortunately the disco owlk painting no longer exists the game. (Atleast to my knowledge) I would always visit it. Tried to visit it the other day but instead it was just a room with a chair, table and some shelves of some sort.
Ah. Yeah. They updated the art room to hide it better by adding a wine cellar. The shelves in that room hold wine bottles. But disco Owlk is indeed still there. One of the wine bottles caps is actually a lever which opens the door to the art hallway! :D
(When owlks were developing the simulation)
“Okay, whos the funny guy who put a s**t on the hotel roof?”
I really love that you talk like a Rick and Morty character (in a good way! Haha) good vídeo!!
4:30 The Koroks are originally from Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker.
Yeah but he said where he knows them from. The hetsu gift is from botw tho. And the finding hidden Koroks is botw.
In the part of the digital world with the lodge there's a standalone building that you can't get to.
0:40 is the prisoner.
I just completed the dlc and actually found the DJ portrait and cat myself. I was laughing at the DJ portrait and confused at the same time
Holy shit(no pun intended) that korok/poop Easter egg is actually awesome
i may ve late for this but thr korok was actually playing a song from outer wilds, elegy for the rings!
It's not actually a Zelda song, it's a poor recorder cover of Elegy for the Rings
edit: at least I think it is
iirc you used to be able to get to the korok without the lamp in the first place, making it easier to get the archievement, but they patched in the poop and made it so it doesnt give it to you anymore
Also the lights used by the Owlk as devices both take in and emit light is the Saul thing is normal IMO
I dont know if anyone knows this but apparently when you are in the vessel in the eye of the universe if you zoom into a yellow star thats moving you'll see the watcher
Watcher? Are you talking about the Eye silencing probe from the owlks? Or are you referring to a different yellowish star?
Well i was playing outer wilds (not echoes of the eye) and i was in the vessel and saw a drifting yellow star when i zoomed in i saw a spacecraft thing and assumed it was the watcher
What is the watcher?
You know what. Shit. I never got to test something. That probe may be there regardless of whether or not you got the dlc. Lore wise it should be there. So they probably would have added it to the main game.
I thought in echoes of the eye there was a thing called the watcher those deer poeple made
drink every "actually"
2:40
2 years later, but I think they removed that room because now there's a bunch of shelves and a chair with no way out.
Am i the only one with this issue?
they did not remove it. They updated and changed it slightly. On the shelves that you mentioned youll find some wine bottles. If you check the corks or lids of those bottles one of them will have the option to rotate it. Rotating it will open the passageway shown in the video ::D
"Pretty fly" easter egg
remake, lol
There is an easteregg/detail inside the tower of the second simulation location,
In this place you find a missing npc among them, this stands for the prisonner who betrayed them and wake up to release the seal from the eye
not an easter egg really. They show them waking up in a reel and we would have worked out from where. The tall tower with the 3 antennas I think. But neat none the less!
@@TheLoreExplorer true but still a cool detail to notice.
Nice! This video is awesome! Do you think that the developers added the cat as a tribute sorta thing about you because you have a cat?
No. One of the devs has a cat named comet. So when you light the candle a comet appears. Then a kitty arrives. So it’s a nod to that. Certainly not me.
@@TheLoreExplorer ah ok it was just a idea anyways. I thought that the comet was a galaxy at first. Have you gotten the achievement yet where you have to ride the tidal wave on a raft? Also, do you know what the portrait of that one owlk in the dream world means?
Yo, its not just random cat comet, this is 146% Nyan Cat :3
If u dont remember - its cosmodancer cat with rainbow "tail"
Its added for and named after one of the devs cats. Specifically a cat named Comet. The actual design or whatever of the cat idk
Finnaly! Thank you!
Disco dave is my second favorite Owlek (I call them Owleks)
Hey lore explorer, there’s a video called “outer wilds puzzle” by a RUclipsr named Lorkhan, and I think you should try to solve it. I have no clue how though, it just looks like alien writing, but maybe you could
ruclips.net/video/XYiMI-Vp74M/видео.html that’s the link to the video
4:42 that's elegy of the rings tho, that's from echoes of the eye
Great video
that cat looks so similar to another cat from a mojile game called "nameless cat"
Did you use "cheats mod" as the mod in this video?, I also want to try exploring the owlk world with flashlight
"Cheat and debug Menu" mod. Also , there is a "day dream" mod where it lights the dreamworld up as if its daytime. Its excellent. Especially for exploring the simulation with the need for a flashlight. You can also download the friendly owlk mod to get a leisurely stroll through the simulation! Have fun!
Where do you think the device that controls the eyes of the universe comes from? I couldn't find it.
I'm your fan! from Japan!🇯🇵
You mean the eye silencing probe? The owlks built it in one of their ship docking bays. Where you enter the stranger. You can see the resemblance from the reel and the docking bay. Exactly how or where isnt known. But a ship is missing from one of the ports. So a lot of people assume they transformed a ship to become the probe.
3:30 is only a nod to the early 90's. Black undershirt, popped collar, chain, classic school photo background, and that's not a "big head". It's called a hi-top fade.
“Off-Key Zelda Music” haha that’s elegy of the rings playing not Zelda music
Yeah. Youre right. I could swear it does remind me of zelda music though.
The Easter egg at 3:30 kinda reminds me of the guy from Vitas, the 7th element 😂😂
Why is his game so much brighter when the owlks are patrolling? Does reduced frights turn the lights on?
It's a mod called Brighter Dreams
@@OHADI22 Thank you!
Greetings from Russia (Let's not talk about politics) something is wrong with your video, but I know it will be cool, I love your analysis of the game "Outer Wilds"
sorry, false alarm, I'm having trouble with the video
Thanks for the kind words Mad Gamer. And thanks for reporting when something was wrong! Glad it was only for you! And glad its working now! Hope you enjoy!
Hey lore
Hi
@@Indian0Lore not you
I tried going to the Easter egg but I will not work for me 3:13
How is everything so bright for you without the candles on?
I use mods to showcase the dream world!
KITTY❗❗❗
it's a kitty cat aww.
1:36 he farted
mega mind
Don't know if it's an Easter egg or if you've ever brought it up but when you're following the owlks through the tunnel to the cabin if you look up above them i think you'll see the shadow of a hand, almost like their projected selves in the dream world are being held in the lanterns
Isn't that because they are holding their lanterns? Thats my guess, since the light source is below their hand, their hand's shadow would be projected on the ceiling.
Does anyone know if any easter eggs have been found since?
Just to be clear. There are no way to view this slide real since i need to jump down, leaving my lantern behind with no way to get back up?
there is definitely a way. I think you ride the top of the elevator and hop down.
You can put the slide reel in, then wake up and re-enter the area. The slide reel stays in.
@@Laevatrien2 Didn't think of that thank you
2:40 every time I try to get to this easter egg it's a wine cabinet. Is there something I'm doing wrong?
No. They updated it. One of the bottles of wine is actually a secret button to open art room
Now I wish my gamertag could be LaserDiscoBigHeadGuy. Why did you do this to us? 😭
I played Outer Wilds first before I recently played Breath of the Wilds so it's reversed in my experience.
I saw things that look like something in Outer Wilds :)
The thing where you put the tablet looks like the switches in the Stranger to call elevators and enable/disable stuffs.
There are many trials like the Quantum trial.
Despite it being a big influence to Outer Wilds, I'm not a fan so far though.
I think it's too Ninentdo and designed for kids which is cool in a world where games are mostly killing and sex XD but it's just not for me. The story is cliche and doesn't intrigue me so far
Yeah if you want good story definitely try some of the earlier 3D Zelda's that came before BotW, I recommend Twilight Princess. BotW tried and succeeded at being a cool open world game but it sacrificed the 3D zelda charm IMO.
@@CodeRed0 Maybe I should finish at least one Zelda game. At the moment, I haven't played BOTW in days, I just don't feel the urge to play it and I think most of it is because of the story. I just know that I need to beat the Ganon and collect the guardians or something and I kinda know what will happen already?
I feel like botw does a decent job at that. Yeah. It’s all historical and legendary and you know the story in advance. But breathe of the wilds makes it personal. You go through the trials of these ancient champions yourself. And so I feel like they do a Decent job giving you a personal connection with the world and story at large. Sort of like we follow the nomais steps. We follow the champions.
@@AninoNiKugi BOTW is pure gameplay masterclass, story is not really interesting although champions are so cool and so their stories but they're just cutscenes, but if you are playing BOTW for story you are wrong, I hope I don't sound too harsh 😅
@@cloud99vii27 That's the thing, story is a big thing for me to push forward in most games. Though I must say, I think the fact that I don't have my own Switch and it was my brother's is a big factor I didn't feel like continuing especially since I know it's a very long game. I would probably play it again and finish if ever I get it as my own :)
Alright walt jr.
"This is a way to find the actual Eye Silencing Probe the Owlks left at the Eye. And it's actually just a green speck on the horizon that you can zoom in with your signal scope to actually see."
But... what horizon? Where do I zoom in? What part of the sky? What direction? Where's the 'way to find the actual Eye Silencing Probe'? :(
Easter eggs and secrets are not the same thing
Your Tuber voice kinda ruined the wonder of exploring these easter eggs
if you wanted wonder, you would have explored the game for easter eggs yourself
