The Talos Principle 2 - All 3 Endings & Secret Scenes Bonuses Compilation

[@bonitapersona]

Skipping the credits ALSO SKIPS THE POST-CREDITS SCENE, if you were to get one. So be careful! I hope they rethink about this and patch it!

[@BlackTorito]

Yes don’t skip them

[@headoverheels88]

OH NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO T_T I was so confused where all these extra scenes could have come!

[@AgentFire0]

Damn, I skipped the credits. :(

[@mx0r]

Why should they? You pay respect to the developers, they pay the respect to you back.

[@cekaem81]

@@mx0r How wasting my time by watching the names I will never remember is paying respect?

[@cloudoftime]

Glad this was uploaded. I ran the game on the highest settings with no glitches or issues. It was beautiful. Then the ending glitched and was playing in half speed desynced from the audio. What a shame.

[@toffylikesgames]

Thank you for the compilation! I was really happy with the ending I got, and I'm glad to see the rest of them :) The one where you shut down the pyramid is s ominous! I also loved the secret scenes. Byron's dreams makes me feel things 🥺

[@radscorpion8]

I think there is one more scene after you deposit all the stars at the star temple on the island where the VTOL plane lands. It has Athena's discoveries about the universe. Although I kind of like that you kept it out, that makes it a secret for the worthy players who went through all the effort of solving all of those star puzzles, some of which were quite nasty!

[@BlackTorito]

That is not and ending scene, actually some of the scenes here are for completing the golden puzzles which are the next step after getting all the stars

[@AgentFire0]

You can deposit your stars?? fuck's sake. I've collected all of them.........

Odd how Alcatraz is in none of the endings from what I can see. Did the devs forget about him? Or did I simply miss him in one of these?

[@BlackTorito]

Its in none as far as I know :/

[@Petitmoi74]

He undoubtedly retreated for his transcendental meditation, to obtain the ascetic life he desired.

[@wormi27z]

I noticed that Alcaratz speaks instead of Cornelius/Byron in some endings if you chose to do nothing, but that didn't happen in my testing. I guess there is something that activates him.

[@bonitapersona]

For some reason he did some of the narration in one of the endings I got, so there may be some way to trigger him.

[@AlucardNoir]

Hmm, returnign back after a month off - left the game at the golden gates - I got Leap of faith, the bonus scene - with ghosts though, the Yaqut and Miranda scene, Pelegrino succeeding, Miranda and Coreneliu - advanced civilization - and the Trevor memorial. Dunno how I could have gotten the Byron ending though, especially since he was mayor. PS. Also you technically missed an ending.

[@BlackTorito]

That ending is for chickens only :) kzbin.info/www/bejne/f3KQZn2ef8eqh80si=viLOPBAk2JYfHO5n

Ending 1: Become God Ending 2: 🤷 Ending 3: Become Homeless

[@Rollingningen]

LOL

[@liampope1]

Thanks for this. You miss a scene when Byron gives the mayor's speech if he is mayor and you choose to destroy the machine. Presumably there's a Herman version too, but I haven't seen it. I'm also hearing there are more possible 'secret' mayors, so maybe even more scenes?

[@BlackTorito]

Only the mayors have a scene so Herman and Byron. There may be slightly variants to those scenes, like purple ghosts in the grass scene.

[@Rev-Up]

@@BlackTorito There's actually 4 different mayor speeches scenes, depending on your choices and who is elected mayor. Watch the video below. kzbin.info/www/bejne/i2bCoHp6m7ppgc0 (Machine destroyed) 2:33 Rand 3:03 Hermanubis 3:42 Byron (Machine shut down) 10:10 All 3 mayors arguing

[@ampac]

Great video! There is a main ending that depends on 1K's choice after saving Athena. The other scenes are shown the end credits, and you will miss them you skip the credits! The post-credit scenes depend on your decisions during the game. Note that a few scenes are missing here...

[@lothrazar]

i had leap of faith but cornelius and the ex-mayor were nowhere to be found , i think it was Athena making a speech there instead

[@BlackTorito]

Interesting

[@kieranking7173]

Didn't realise the ending was so damn modular. Anyone know what the conditions are for the little bonus scenes?

[@DrCornelius]

I noticed Miranda is in all of these endings. What happens if you depart for the megastructure choosing not to complete the golden puzzles?

[@BlackTorito]

Seems you and Athena are alone based on someone commentary

[@jakovvodanovic9165]

@@BlackTorito yes

[@rjclive]

If you don't do the golden puzzles and meet with Cornelius and rescue Miranda, the Athena free scene is missing Cornelius and Miranda, and their scene playing chess never appears, nor them looking out over the city from the dam.

[@blazinakos2482]

i forgot to talk to cornelius and went straight in after finishing everything but some stars, i got athena falling down from the machine without anyone helping her, then i got leap of faith with ghosts and after gredits i got the trevor grave, nothing else, i have no idea what triggers all these tho

[@kota19740108]

I collected all the scenes in this video on my first playthrough. However, in "LEAP OF FAITH", the scene where grass grows behind "1k" walking was a little different. He was walking with pink particle humans.

[@BlackTorito]

Yep, thats a variant as well

[@magpiestudent9357]

I got them as well. I wondered if they were the iterations of those left behind in the simulation, like Samsara, Shepherd, DOG, admin from RTG (if chosen) etc

[@rainivelazphez4864]

@@magpiestudent9357I think they are all of the figments. They show up in the credits when you collect all of the purple memories of people who spent time on the island (Miranda, Athena, and Cornelius)

anybody know the music starting at 8:20? that melody is so beautiful, i dont know if its in the official release of the ost

[@javi199169]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppK8gZuDatOBe8U I haven't been able to find the name of the song, although you can listen to a clean version of it there. It sounds like it might be a remix of another song from the first game. If the timestamp doesn't set correctly, the track starts at 2:38:30.

[@radscorpion8]

What determines pellegrino's failure/success I wonder

[@BlackTorito]

If you choose “I want to know the truth” pellegrino will succeed

[@zeisss]

I had a Leap of Faith video with ghosts - not much different though otherwise.

[@sirius_sus]

There're Byron and Hermanubis as mayors as well as refusing to go with the expedition at the first briefing missing here.

[@BlackTorito]

Already stated in the description, though the Chicken ending is just a joke. Covered in another video though.

[@Cklodar]

Nope, Mayor Byron and Mayor Hermanubis each gives a speech if you choose to destroy the Machine, just like the one given by Mayor Rand.

[@SegoliaFlak]

What determines the ghosts vs no ghosts in the leap of faith bonus scene?

[@BlackTorito]

Good question I think nobody knows, it seems its a mixture of stats probably since I got everything in the game and nothing. Maybe if your popularity stat is high?

[@AlucardNoir]

@@BlackTorito did you do the forum posts you get throughout the game?

[@BlackTorito]

@@AlucardNoir I did, but I stopped in Act 3 since I needed to elect all mayors in one playthrough. So I probably didnt max out my popularity which I suspect is what triggers it

[@aniforprez]

ghosts is determined by how many memories/remnants(?) you got i.e. the purple ghosts of miranda, athena and cornelius. i think if you get 90+% or 100% you get the ghosts in that scene

[@BlackTorito]

@@aniforprez don’t think so because I got 100% and the extra one

[@magpiestudent9357]

I got the leap of faith ending and Trevor's grave. I could NOT be bothered to try for the other endings. Unlike the first game, which I was obsessed with, I found the sequel a real slog to get through, especially towards the end. Thank you for putting all the endings here!

[@ramsy66]

I didn't play the first, but really enjoyed this one. I agree with you though, the last few hours of the game I was just willing it to end. Really enjoyed the overall experience though

[@zhilingwang2175]

Since the DLC is released, which ending is offical after all?

[@BlackTorito]

Leap of Faith with Byron Mayor, as per Isle of Blessing DLC

[@d3vism]

How do you get the "Trevor's grave" scene? I collected all audio logs but didn't get it

[@BlackTorito]

Did you choose “I want to know the truth”? It only triggers there I think

[@uros.u.novakovic]

@@BlackTorito I collected all logs and chose "I want to know the truth" with Byron being the Mayor but I didn't get that scene. Does it happen post credits? Cause I skipped the credits and the game only went to the main menu.

Excellent, no nonsense, with timestamps. Great resource.

[@sam9708]

I went with to not use the machine but to not destroy it. Prometheus just before you enter the lift sounded just like Elohim. When he talks about generations. I’m still glad I choose that path. It felt rushed and it shouldn’t have just been up to 1K. Like how do you use the machine without making the same mistakes humans did. They needed to know that. I felt like they would destroy more than just the earth unless they used it carefully.

[@Rattlesnark]

Great video, thanks! Came here right after my own ending to see the rest; so convenient to have them all nicely labeled and timestamped here

[@ampac]

Completing all main puzzles in all areas will unlock the golden gates where the gold puzzles are located. There are 12 gold puzzles, one in each area. Most of them are challenging and tougher than all other puzzles in the game. After completing them, you will close on of the story's major story arcs and will be able to take a mission to save Miranda. Note that there is no need to collect all stars and flames since these do not have impact on the endings.

[@xellestar]

what's the "Byron Dreams" scene is that when you shut down the megastructure ?

[@BlackTorito]

No, it happens when destroying it, when you shut it down it happens the lantern robot

​​@@zepwafelsYes I just saw the scene in this video and it made me so sad. Byron is a beautiful character. I'm si happy I decided to side with him and embrace the future. Now he can reach for the stars

[@bigshrekhorner]

@@scas97 I chose to deactivate the machine (I was with Byron's side at first, but in the end I sided with Al and Yakut [and, side note, the person Doge connected me with was Helga]). He should be able to reach for the stars one day, yes, but Al (and Herm, to a degree) was also right, progress without caution is only destructive. And Byron was self-destructive (he got overloaded because he was blinded by emotion, when trying to find Athena. Who knows what he would do in his relentless enthusiasm to reach the whole cosmos with a machine *this* powerful). He should first earn his goal, by showing he is indeed ready to reach the stars (and wanting to reach them and being ready to reach them are two incredibly different things). Of course, this will take a long long time, but this will make success even sweeter.
