My theory is Nigel and Gavin are actually the same person and we’re actually dealing with someone who has schizophrenia/ multiple personality disorder

[@ericnesbitt3161]

Sounds very likely

[@corvette_jake7225]

Not likely since the letter from Tom you can loot off Nigel talks about both Nigel and Gavin as two separate people.

[@corvette_jake7225]

But Nigel does seem like a nut so I was thinking some sort of ptsd psychosis stuff, like Gavin was killed horribly in front of Nigel and he snapped and believes it wasn't real and now just wanders around like a nut looking for his friend

Ex-Playstation employee here, I worked in the company right when the PS Vita was released, they also told us it was an accessory port, supposedly to "extend the functionality and experience" of the PS Vita, but not even we were told what kind of accessories were going to be released, not even management knew, so it's an even bigger mystery than one thinks.

Hex FF 06 B5 is 16713397 decimal. The FF value looks like an 8 bit rollover value intended to trigger something. Increment it by one and it resets to zero. Hex 06 B5 is 1717 decimal. I think I'd be setting the system clock and/or game time to 17:17 and seeing what if anything happens by the statue. Failing that I'd be looking for FF 06 B5 (or an offset version of it) in the code and I'd reset it to 00 06 B5. Once again I'd be checking out the statue.

Regarding the PSVita mystery port, I think it's exactly what it looks like, an expansion port that had planned attachments but was just never used because the Vita didn't meet expectations. Nintendo and Sega used to do that sort of thing all the time during the cartridge era, where the NES, SNES, and N64 all had expansion ports that were either completely unused or the accessories that went to them didn't release outside Japan, like the Famicom net modems or N64DD.

[@DZXDachande]

Elite Dangerous and Raxxla is a big mystery. It's only mentioned in a book that came with the first Elite game in the 80's. David Braben has confirmed it's in the current game. The problem is there are 400 billion star systems in the game and after nearly 8 years of searching players have mapped less than 0.1% of the galaxy. Good luck finding that one!

If I remember correctly, the Marathon -> Destiny connection is that Marathon is a paraverse or alternate universe to Destiny. I believe that was all confirmed with the 30th Anniversary update in Destiny with the Dares of Eternity game mode and some of the Marathon/Halo inspired weapons. Hell, even the MIDA Multitool and MIDA Minitool are a reference to the MIDA corporation in Bungie's earlier works and the lore tab on MIDA Multitool even states that it was pulled in from an alternate timeline.

[@FacelessKill3R1]

Building off your comment, with the release of the 30th Anniversary Update on Destiny 2 it's strongly implied that all Bungie games are within the same multiverse, or Paraverse as Bungie themselves named it, and beings of immense power have the ability to manipulate the boundaries between the universes as seen by the Master Chief pod, the Horse that pulls enemies from other timelines, Halo and Marathon weapons. And vice versa, the Flower game reference in Marathon, the Destiny Awaits poster with the Traveler in Halo

[@jackholson92]

About Gavin: "The joke is apparently a reference to a Rockstar Games Developer who reportedly left the company in 2016 after expressing doubts in Red Dead Redemption 2. The joke is basically saying, where is Gavin after this extremely successful game was released."

Speaking of connections between Halo and Destiny, there's obscure lore somewhere in Destiny 1 where Ghost spoke about trying to resurrect someone with a strong light (before he found our player character), but the dude said he just wanted to sleep, that his previous battles were enough for a thousand lifetimes. The warrior was implied to be John 117. Also more obvious would be the addition of the Forerunner exotic weapon, which was heavily implied to be (and even looks a lot like) the Halo 1 pistol. The gunsmith even said that it was too big for a sidearm, like the person who used to wield it was massive, before he had to tinker with it and downsize it.

My take on number 9 is that it's just meant to be a futuristic type of modern art. As in, in the future some modern artist could just display the color code instead of actually painting the statue, so everybody could imagine it painted in their head. That's pretty simple and also kinda cool from an artistic point of view. There's no mystery behind there :)

[@nv1573]

Nope, one of the devs that regularly streams the game has confirmed there is a secret that no one has found up to now. The crazy stuff is that you can find random doors in buildings you can open theres allot of things the game never tells about with icons

The Chameleon Twist code reminds me of the whole EntropicDecay Zero-Tau thing from Perfect Dark. Now it's a mystery, even though it was likely a scrapped feature intended for the short-lived Carrington Institute and dataDyne websites that existed at the time.

[@gerarbendfeldt]

I have always wondered what determine the color of eggs in RE4. Is it by a set percentage of chance? Do all color has equal or different chance? Can you somehow manipulate it to spawn gold more often? Because it is known that healing items drop from enemy more when Leon stay in low health. Also in the village does scaring the chicken help faster egg spawn or not to touch them. I need to know.

[@KirbyNPenguins]

I think the Megaman mystery can be best described by this iconic quote: “NO THIS ISN’T HAPPENING, THERE’S NO REASON FOR ME TO GO ON, WHA- WHAT AM I [searching] FORRRRRRRR”

[@saxwastaken]

Bungie has hinted at a sort of multiverse that spans their games, not as in the games take place in the same universe, but rather their own universes that are in some way connected, further hinted at when they released the 30th anniversary event in Destiny 2, where they implied that the Halo Magnum somehow made its way into the Destiny universe, and also with Mida Multitool, where it straight up is implied in lore that it's not from the universe the game takes place in.

[@roseo9287]

I like the Cyberpunk 2077 statue thing. Even though I have the game (haven't played it due to playing other games), I find it funny because I always sense that the answer is in plain sight or non existent at all to trick us gamers (wild goose chase).

[@roseo9287]

@@Dilirium23 I gave it some more thought on this. Maybe it’s something us gamers have to figure out outside the game like using Command Line or Powershell. Then utilizing the results in the game for further code or function in game. I dunno it intrigued me last night but it could be nothing or something someone already came up with.

[@cournteygibson3761]

[@codydoxey2497]

I just learned after platinuming tunic that there is some mystery with the secret treasures and this tower you can go to after getting at least 6 of the 12 or so secret treasures.

[@thelonggame9166]

1:44 As a game developer I would say the solution is this: The color code is the code that's used as a transparency color for scenes and models. For example, if you create a model with a material or texture, then import the model without it's associated material/texture into a game engine (esp. Unity), the model will appear in this color. When objects of this color appear in actual game play, the object is "ignored" for purposes of collision detection, display, and the like. If the developers were pointing to something, though, I'm willing to bet that there are some invisible objects in the scene that may be affecting game play at or around the point. One trick a dev could do is have one of these invisible models trigger a script that changes something somewhere else in the game when the PC comes too close, as an example.

[@cournteygibson3761]

but that would mean to uncover whatever is being hidden we would need access to the engine files it was made with, and the engine there in... would it not? then on top of that you would have to scour the whole game and all sequences within the game, top to bottom. changing all textures to this magenta color one by one to uncover the hidden secret. and even then, on something this massive of a scale. the possibility of overlooking what youre trying to find would still be tremendous. fuck that part being impossible. how are we supposed to get into the game dev software and edit the game on a "developer" level!?!?! it isnt exactly like your average joe can click and drag the EXE into unreal engine and et-viola pursue this possible lead XD much less have enough people to ensure that it dosent get missed on the first pass, because were basically talking about breaking into or heisting equipment from CD project red to do so

For the "Magenta Code," I think it may be for a time and/or place. Just started up a game and wanted to load a save and it had a time stamp. The time was labeled 12:34:56.

I played Portal 2 for the first time today. Pretty cool game. Hopefully I can check out the rest of the franchise

[@Papa-Murphy]

100% chance that the Cyperpunk mystery was just some scrapped content like the rest of the game

[@nickk4953]

Holy I did not expect you to go into Marathon and Pathways into Darkness. Those games, Marathon more, really make your head spin. I watched some KZbin videos on it from MandaloreGaming really comprehensive but not to deep (because if be hours if it was) review. Im glad you did some old school games. Also all 3 marathon games are completely free to download and play.

[@juliobarrios2520]

I'd though Gavin was a giant cut from RDR2.

[@philithegamer8265]

No. It's just a reference to a meme.

[@thegamerwithin1676]

Devs putting some random number on statues and watching whole community go crazy after after it has to one of the greatest prank ever

[@blood1366]

Gary's quest in cyberpunk talks about aliens infesting the net and in one ending with him a group of men in suits take him away...there eye color when on the net or scanning isn't the normal yellow, there eyes glow Magenta

[@crazyviperfox]

Gavin is from AH (achievement hunter ) because they put Geoff and jack in the game as voice actors

[@lucasmenchone2826]

I saw a “cut content” video that shows a giant from a freak show that ran away because it had been bullied so much, that call itself Gavin. Perhaps it is the conclusion of Nigel’s quest that we never received Edit: yeah I quit, spend a whole hour trying to find the damn video on my history, and nothing, it was months ago and the difficulty in finding information about it makes me question its validity.

you got the link?

yea u got a link?

[@dylanwood2287]

that dudes named bertraim tho, right?

[@KentrellBraxton]

@@dylanwood2287 yep. It’s not Gavin.

[@KentrellBraxton]

It wasn’t cut content it was a side quest and you had to fight him in a bar. Then go find the little magician guy.

[@whyjnot420]

20 years later you are talking about the future by talking about the past. (Mirai is Japanese for "future")

[@gameranxTV]

👍🏼

[@philithegamer8265]

That's an esoteric way of describing this.

[@whyjnot420]

@@philithegamer8265 Esoteric enough where I certainly had to put that little translation note in.

[@EvelynnWinters2000]

My guess about the Borealis is that it was a ship experimenting with dimensional travel (or teleportation) but when they activated it, in classic Aperture style, it went horribly wrong and ended up "Vanishing" So the one in Half Life 2 is either where it ended up after teleporting, or is an alternate dimension one that ended up there (from a very similar dimension) I think teleportation is more likely, since they A) are already using portal technology, and B) the thing that probably went wrong, is that all the organic life (the crew) aboard were killed, or completely destroyed during teleportation

That Atari system looks like it could be an updated version of the the Atari XEGS console. My uncle had one I used to play it a lot as a kid.

[@DjoYazid]

0:55 as a Game Asset Designer myself id do something like this sometimes just to mess with people 😂 there is no secret there its just a prank

[@Name_Lessness]

The cyberpunk mystery is easy, it's the reference to "dark light." In the chakra system the last 2 or 3rd eye and enlightenment are indigo and violet. Combined this creates magenta, cyberpunk is embracing the "shadow" or darkness looking outward. "We're all chasing the same light, some chase it from the opposite end of the spectrum."

[@CanIHasThisName]

Well, as easy as it may sound, what solution does that lead to?

[@Name_Lessness]

@@CanIHasThisName Figured it was just lore for cyberpunk monk culture that has a real world ideology. They didn't really ever explore the monk lore, sadly.

[@MrSpartan993]

As far as the Cyberpunk Magenta Mystery goes, where’s the members of the Gravity Falls fandom when you need em? This is RIGHT up their ally.

[@philithegamer8265]

Gravity Falls has fans?

[@mynxiejean1169]

Man the second you mentioned the first Destiny game I had an instant nostalgia wave. Crazy that Bungie had link so many games together

[@Artlas1]

the magenta one is probably just referencing the "printer missing magenta" memes

[@pla6ue]

Uhhh...Gavin IS Nigel. How tf do you guys not know this? The letter you find confirms this. Look into it more, and you just might feel silly afterwards.

[@IcedForce]

The Atari Mirai is pretty much a dead end until either someone talks or someone takes a look inside of it. Most likely it's a mockup model as stated, it doesn't have hardware in it. From the inside we could see the manufacturing process which would pretty much tell us was it really considered a thing or just something put up as example (as in how expensive process was used to make the case from just temporary molds to something more serious). In the late 80's while Atari was already going down and fast they probably had still quite many plans and so they would have had probably multiple consoles in different stages to be done, so one case mockup left behind into some closet to be found later wouldn't be something surprising.

[@DXSwanton]

Fun fact about the Marathon symbols and clues to Destiny being teased through Halo: there's also a mission in Destiny 1: The Taken King, where you can scan a life pod on a wall, and it is clearly a reference to Master Chief as a Guardian, 117, and "wanting to rest after a war enough for a lifetime" - not the word for word quote but close enough for this fact

[@KentrellBraxton]

It’s no longer a mystery or theory between Nigel/Gavin. It’s implied in the note (while John) that Nigel no longer have Gavin because he accomplished what he needed to. He needed Gavin in order to achieve what he has achieved and once achieved Gavin disappeared. Nigel is dependent upon that personality so he searches for him endlessly. We all know this. Nigel IS Gavin… Gavin will never be found. The note was addressed to Nigel but vaguely references Gavin.

As a fan of halo and destiny, it's pretty crazy looking back at all the marathon lore and how it's similar.
