3:50 there was actually a part of Talos Principle where i finished all the puzzles in an area and a hologram started running toward me using the exact same sound byte as a headless kamikaze. There hadn't been anything else like it in the game and the fact that the level looked exactly like one of the later ones from serious sam 3 certainly aided in bringing on a PTSD-inspired episode.

IIRC, that puzzle is actually in that same section as the other puzzle that requires you to place the box in the moving mine. Which means if you do one puzzle first, the solution is easy, but if you happen to do the other one first, the solution is unintuitive. Since there's no indication for what puzzle to do first in any given section, I feel like that was a bit of an oversight

@@trmn8tr3737 I think that's kind of the point. IIRC Elohim even tells you that if you're struggling with a puzzle, walk away and try some others, and the solution may present itself. That's what I did with that part, starting with the unintuitive level and was confused, went to the other one and had the "aha!" moment. Was actually quite satisfying.

@@AlphaMc111 I think this "no tutorial" approach was actually quite refreshing, making me explore the possibilities. An example was this level where there were maybe 5 bombs running around really tightly, called "handful of mines" or something similar. Only way I found a solution was to bring a jammer and a hexahedron from another level where I could bring them over walls (for some of the more complicated stars, I think), and disable a mine from outside the level. Not really sure it was meant to be done that way, but I did :D

The game actually makes you find quite a bit of stars to fully understand whats going on. For those of you who are too lazy to read all the logs or are simply sick of the game but still can't quite comprehend it. SPOILER ALERT: The logs are from the final days of humanity. A virus that was frozen away in some sort of permafrost has been released due to global warming, has wiped out all of the chimpansees and is rapidly mutating and infecting humans. In a last ditch effort to save civilisation (and not humanity) a massive AI simulation is created in the last efforts by a team of researchers. You are a single simulation in that program. Your parameters are randomised and you are being tested. Not only to your logical skills (aka puzzle solving) but also the ability to think for yourself. Thus ELOHIM guides you throughout the game but warns you to never go to the tower. Arguably, someone who blindly listens to an unknown voice in the sky but with amazing problem solving skills is just a very efficient machine, following orders. Thus, listening to elohim procs the first ending. A failed simulation. Your parameters are reset and randomised and you start again from the beginning and thus a new simulation with a different version of you begins (storywise, its still exactly the same game). However, should you choose to defy elohim and reach the top of the tower even after various warnings not to, you have proven to have the ability to think for yourself, hence a succesful experiment. The simulation ends and you are released from the computer to enter the real world.

Thanks for writing this out. I don't really remember, but I feel like I put this story together from only the non-optional puzzles (and my incredible intuitive skills lol). There are also parts of it that don't really fit together, tbh. Like, why is the simulation set in serious sam world instead of, say, blank corridors? Why is the guide so starkly Christian-themed? And the real answer is: because it's a video game and it had to be interesting to real humans. But it doesn't make a lot of sense in the fiction of the world.

A game as intelligently reflective as it is philosophically educational and self aware of it's intellectual puzzles regarding the mysteries of existence, The Talos Principle is certain to take the player on an intrinsic journey through his own existential nature. I can say beyond the shadow of a doubt that this is one of the greatest video games of all time; not just for its stellar graphics and appeasing soundtrack, but also for its thought-provoking story.

He uses Microsoft Photo Story (I think he said) to make ZP. So it's entirely likely that he accidentally misclicked a wrong button in that photo, resulting in the cross fade. He's made errors in the past with frames that went missing or were held too long before, but this is the first I've seen of a random transition.

I gotta say i was a bit sceptical about this game but boy am i glad i decided to try it. If you are a fan of Portal - definitely try Talos Principle. Graphics are amazing - i have an overclocked Intel i7(@4.8Ghz all cores), 24Gb of RAM(1600@CL9) and moderatly overclocked R9 295X2(only 7% OC) on LG 34UM95 (34" 3440x1440 IPS) monitor and you can max out graphical settings way beyond Ultra setting. It allows you to change settings for CPU, GPU and even VRAM. With everything maxed out to 100%(with exception of Supersampling) both of GPU's on my 295X2 were sweating at 100% utilization (and 295X2 is the second fastest video card on the market right now(after new dual GPU Titan X presumably)), but payoff is amazing. I dont think i have ever seen nature, waterfalls, forests as lifelike as i did in Talos with all settings at absolute max(17 settings set above default Ultra setting) - and yes i have played fully modded Crysis. Make sure you have some serious hardware if you want to see what i saw unless of course you are still rocking 1080p. The only thing i would add(and nitpicking here) are 1-dynamic skies and 2-some comic releif like wesley in Portal2. I cannot recommend Talos highly enough and will follow or Croatian developer brothers new efforts from now on!!!

I think there were more clues than you gave it credit for. I found out the bomb trolley thing BT getting frustrated running round aimlessly and then trying to drip a box on the thing that kept blowing me up. The placement of the stars on the start signboard appeared to give a clue as to where the star might be near. Clues in the area names like moonshot. Wasn't expecting that one. I found this game rewarded human curiosity and perseverance even one of the achievements says exactly that. I googled two in all. The rest were down to something i didn't spot or brain tiredness and coming back after a break they seemed obvious. Like I even went back and checked a video I'd taken to see if a ladder I'd sworn Wasn't there before was. It was. I just walked past it 30 times without noticing. Really liked this game. Appreciated your humour as well

Yahtzee, Myst had puzzles, yes, but they weren't cobbled together out of several recurring tools like the ones in Talos Principle and, indeed, Portal. Same with Zork. Those are first-person adventure games, like Monkey Island, or, idk, Syberia were adventure games.

Yahtzee, have you ever heard of/played a game called The Infinite Ocean? Intriguing and compelling (albeit long) story, with a bare-bones puzzle game shoved in between the pieces of story to qualify it as a game. When you described The Talos Principle in the video, I immediately thought of The Infinite Ocean. Yes, the latter is a puzzle game, yes it's a very short game as a result, but experiencing all of the story within it can take upwards of three hours. I'd call it a novel if it weren't also an escape-the-room, there is a lot of story. But don't let that deter you, it's engrossing and profound, and I highly recommend you play it, especially if you rate story highly in games. Slight spoilers, but if you need to know a bit about it first: You're stuck in a lab. As you find clues you learn it's an AI development lab. A team of geniuses had been working for years to create a true Artificial Intelligence, but their funding ran out, as they had made no real new progress. Military caught word of the project, and inject billions into a new project, similar to the last, but with a tweak; they want the AI to man drones. A new team is set up, with only a handful of the scientists and engineers from the last team having returned, and with their near bottomless account they succeed. But the newly created entity is hesitant to comply with some of it's coding, specifically the part that requires it to kill designated targets. It does not rebel, but what ensues is a story I can only describe as beautiful. Play it. Experience it. Now.

Sir, you just earned yourself a subscriber with 3:00. When I was playing the puzzle in the Ancient Egypt Map that had you jump on top of the "bleeping explod-y death balls" I nearly punched my computer because I was so annoyed! I spent, probably 45 minutes trying to sneak around and block the wankers with the boxes! It even had the audacity to patronize me by saying something like, "You've been trying this puzzle for a long time, it is OK to take a brake and come back later." Your review of this game is spot on and I agree with just about every word of it so great job! P.S. to whoever actually read my whole comment then congratulations, you get a gold star.

Thanks for the gold star! They are hard earned in Talos! It's a great game to be sure, but the stars are a bit too difficult to get without help online. Some games like this are too easy, like Portal, or too difficult like The Witness. The best game like this recently is Lord Temin's Fortress, which strikes the perfect balance. Excellent game!

Funnily enough in Road to Gehenna DLC there is a Serious Sam text adventure game (Serious Sam: The Text Encounter) where Sam gets plagued by Ennui, which I am pretty sure is metaphor for depression or old age or something similar, and you (Sam) tries to debate against it using philosophy, psychology and other debating tactics but it always end with Sam shooting it in the face.

The ability to put boxes on the roaming mines is shown through a level in the first chamber of world 2, where a mine starts out with a box on its head and the puzzle is about getting the box off of its head.

Just finished the game, all 3 endings... Holy shit, this game is far better than Portal ever was. It doesn't have wacky humour (except for the dozens of easter eggs), but has awesome music, more puzzles (and more difficult), and that kind of intense story focus that intrigues you the whole way through, pulls you in, blows your mind and leaves you in awe, depressed, contemplating, with chills all over your body. Do yourself a favor and play this.

Nah, the Internet loves to overrate things, see FF7. I don't get what's the deal with Portal. The portal gun was a nice idea, but since it was the only thing you had, puzzles started feeling identical after a while. A few funny lines here and there, but the overall narrative was pretty weak and lacked engaging elements and context. I much prefer TP's approach.

I know I'm about 5 years too late and someone else has pointed this out, but the point about putting the boxes on top of the mines is a weak one. I know the spot in the game that Yahtzee is referring to, and there are 2 different instances of the game drawing you to that conclusion within that level. There's a text log hinting at it and there's a mine elsewhere in the level that has a box on top of it. Yes, that puzzle seemed confusing at first, but once you are able to piece those hints together and figure out what you're supposed to do, it's all the more rewarding for it.
