After going through all those loops there was no way I was going to let myself die even if I could reset it. Fortunately I had done the journey a few times cause of screwing around so I knew exactly what to do, but I was so afraid the whole time. And wouldn’t you know it, right before I entered the final bramble seed I heard an Anglerfish growling at me, which had never happened before, and my heart basically leapt out of my chest. I panicked a bit but thankfully I made it. Was probably one of the biggest scares I’ve ever had in a video game. The rest of the ending was pretty freaky too, of course…

The Eye of the Universe ending of this game is simply amazing, it truly feels like that’s the end of the game. And I love the vagueness of what the hell just happened, leaves lots up to interpretation. My personal take on it is when you jump into the eye of the universe, the sheer complexity and confusion gets to you so hard that you try and find a way to make yourself comfortable, so you picture everyone you’ve met on your journey, even including Solanum. And since the law of quantum imaging makes you part of what you can see, it forms that into reality. Who knows, maybe all of the Nomai in Dark Bramble huddling together to make themselves feel better in times of total confusion was foreshadowing to this very moment. Maybe I’m wrong about all of this, but even then, one things is clear even with all of the loose ends. *Fuck those fucking anglerfish.*

The canon ending never fails to make me cry. The whole game you're taught to use your time wisely, that you only have 22 minutes until you have to start again, and every loop you're finding new ways to make that time all the more effective, do just a little bit more in the time you have. But it's a constant - you die. The sun goes supernova. You can't stop time, and you can't stop the eruption of the universe. Then you get to the Eye, and there's a sort of feeble hope that maybe now, now that you're in the middle of things, now that you're a part of the universe's very fabric in all its life and death and destruction and rebirth, that maybe now you can stop the cycle of death. But you can't. And it's bittersweet, because you know you can't, you know that the universe that you know will be gone, and is gone, and has been gone for time innumerable, but the end of one day leads to the next. You get to watch as the universe goes on, and will go on, and has gone on, being reborn and remade and recreated a million million million times over. It fucks with me so much I love it.

No it doesn’t. Space game with a super tedious puzzle for its story. The puzzle shouldn’t take as long to complete as it does as knowing where to go completely destroys the need to visit anywhere in the game except two planets. Which destroys replayability for me. The soundtrack is nice I guess but you don’t notice it often. The plot was boring and the puzzle to figure out what to do and where to go is very messy and disorganised and can be confusing for no reason. Ship physics are annoying and floaty even when there’s supposed to be gravity. Lots of useless mechanics that didn’t need to be in the game such as the ghost crystals things. Lots of random annoying glitches which force me to reset. Sometimes I accidentally get launched into space because of how floaty it is and I can’t get back to my ship so I’m forced to reset and sit through the slow ass cutscene. The endings were pretty uninteresting and underwhelming yet the community won’t shut up about how it brought them to tears. I’ve never seen so many people who seemingly have no impulse control and can’t regulate their emotions so any little thing sets them off, that’s the only explanation I have for why people are “brought to tears” over shit I thought was simply cool on first viewing and then didn’t care for any other viewing.

I'm not entirely sure why that breaks timespace though. I guess the idea is that we're the other self from 22 min ago so if past self dies, then future self shouldn't be able to exist, but the thing is, as soon as we wake up and do anything different or have any different memory (which we do thanks to the ash twin project), that removes any possibilities of us becoming our 22 min older self. So either the game over should happen immediately at the start of the loop (which wouldn't be very satisfying or clear), or the thing works on multiverse theory and even dying shouldn't break the space time continuum.

However, even if a worm hole does exist, it can’t violate causality. An object entering a wormhole may appear on the other side in the future relative to outside observers, if the wormhole accelerated the object near the speed of light, but it can never travel backwards through time. Because of this, no object could exit a wormhole before entering it, so there’s no need to worry about duplicate/quantum material. Human beings also do not have the technology or material to create a black hole that wouldn’t instantly collapse on itself.

The universe is dead, so i have no idea what the ending actually is. But the thought of pursuing knowledge despite it costing the only thing keeping you alive is something big

@@STANNco i think it was the innumerable probability of all creation being collapsed. our friends all represent different parts of the world your perception of them creates. Solanum as the Nomai representative stands in for intelligent life due to "seek out and understanding is the nomai way", chert is wonder and curiosity, Feldspar is adventure and so on. It's basically the quantum Eye collapsing with you as the focus due to being the last living thing capable of perceiving it. It doesn't much matter if it is literal or not, although i dont think it is, as much as the emotional impact. That's jut my take, though.

As I understand it, the eye of the universe is some form of quantum based planetary body or being, predating the universe it's self with the ability to restart the universe using quantum energy, but to do so it needed a sentient lifeform to witness it's creation and lock in one of the endless possibilities (same as quantum material needs to be observed to exist in one form), so when the universe started collapsing on it's self (I'm unsure whether that was the eyes doing, or whether it was happening naturally), it put out a call to attract some form of sentience so that the creation of the new universe could be witnessed. (Spoiler for DLC) The species that inhabit the stranger detected the signal, and assumed it was some form of God, and so drained their homeworld of resources to build a ship to heed it's call. I'm unclear whether after finding it they thought it was the one destroying the universe and so blocked it's signal for that, or where just mad that it didn't offer the salvation they seeked, and so blocked it's signal to stop anyone else being "tricked", but the prisoner clearly disagreed, and periodically let out a burst of signal which is what called the unfortunate clan of Nomai to seek it out. And due to them reactivating the blocker, the Nomai ended up having to go to extreme lengths to try and locate the eye. (DLC spoiler end) The Nomai where a nomadic species, spread across multiple ships, and knew the universe was slowly collapsing. One of the ships heard the call of the eye and so went to investigate. Unfortunately they warped into Dark Bramble, destroying the ship. Those who managed to eject and escape started a new life on the planet, with one aim: to discover the secrets of the eye of the universe. First they needed to find it, as it was hidden. After several failed attempts they came up with a pretty extreme plan. A device that could reverse time using a local black hole, to send a single probe to infinite destinations simultaneously. The issue is that it needed immense power, as in the power of an exploding sun. To achieve this, they made a device that could detonate the sun, and the statue that could record and retain the memories of a single Nomai, so that when the probe found the eye, that Nomai could stop the loop of the sun exploding whilst retaining the information collected. Unfortunately, the device to detonate the sun didn't work. That left them with a need for power, and so in comes the interloper. An asteroid with an unusual but powerful energy reading. The Nomai went to see if they could use it, but found out too late that it contained their demise in the form of ghost matter, which spread over the solar system when the ice containing it melted, wiping them out and ending their quest to find the eye. Skip ahead, and a new species is born, the Hearthians. Saved from the ghost matter by their aquatic beginnings (ghost matter doesn't like water), and the fact it dissipated over time. One in particular is just about to set out on his journey to the stars, when an ancient Nomai failsafe detects the sun is in the process of going supernova and kicks into action to fulfill is original purpose. It fires it's probe and starts recording the memories of this particular Nomai, thus starts the game. At the end, the player witnesses quantum variants pulled from their memories of home and their friends, before witnessing the big bang of the new universe, an act which solidifies the existence of one of the endless quantum possibilities, but which also brings an end to their own universe. A long one I know, but I tried to just focus on the core events. I may have misunderstood a detail here and there, but I looked up the main points from places like the wiki when I finished the DLC, so all the core details should be actuate.

You can break spacetime in a number of ways involving black holes, and now there's more endings as well.

Bro, when I saw that angler fish in 42:12 when I was playing the game myself I was so jump scared. And thought it would follow me the entire time and I didn't know it would just disappear like that, so I was paranoid for like 5 min until I assumed he was fully gone. And I even see you getting a little jump scare too XD. Very good game.

as soon as i first got in the ash twin, i didnt want it to end yet, because i knew that the vessel and the coordinates HAD to mean something.. but i had no warp core. as soon as i opened up the core, my brain IMMEDIATELY sprang into fight mode. i got the warp core to the vessel asap and got it first try somehow

Such a good game

Did the self-ending/breaking fabric of spacetime sound freaks me out so much no matter how many times I hear it. So uncomfortable, aish. It was also super freaky because I triggered it without realizing what it would do, got to the Eye, then broke reality right before jumping in lol. I was so confused.

I like to think that a less intense more quiet version of the music that plays at the Big Bang is what the next travelers will hear as the quantum dignal

The canon ending actually splits into 2 parts, if you dont invite solanum to the band then the intelligent life that makes fire doesnt appear

"Hey, Solanum, check it out."

So I ended up breaking spacetime on my first playthrough, but not because I tried doing anything dumb. My scout just glitched out when I shot it into the black hole and clipped out of bounds instead of going through the hole. I tried retrieving it but couldn't so then casually tried removing one of the cores and triggered it. It didn't even occur to be that you could intentionally trigger this, I assumed that this was just a fun in-universe way to explain a glitch!

You simply get the “You’re dead” ending, because you’re back into the solar system and your “quantum” self is blasted by the nova. The reason there’s a special ending in the Sixth location is because you suffer the same fate as Solanum, since every planet back in the system is destroyed by the nova, and your “quantum” selves are also roasted, you have no way to return or getting out, forever trapped in the timeless sixth location

Fun fact: In the Final Eye of the universe, if you throw a scout out of the atmosphere you cannot recover it. And in the post-credits scene it appears flying in the new universe.

I love the breaking space time ending

also seemed like the star chart was correct when it went all over the place when trying to lock on to the eye of the universe... and the kids theory seems correct about the eye wanting them to go there... although not sure if it's a space time thing wanting them/ needing them to go or if the eye is actually alive... or maybe it's a little bit of both... also wondering if that would make the eye god Edit: reread this after playing the dlc and I now know the real reason why they could not find the eye of the universe...

You have missed one : There is a seventh hidden one that IS the REAL one ! ^^ 14.3 billions years later , if you had thrown the portable probe into the eye, at 54:35 - 54:40 you have seen it passing by into the sky... ^^ And this IS the REAL end of the game as it IS the answer at the question the Nomaï have been searching for in the entire game : " What is the nature of the eye of the Universe " ?

You probably jumped into the black hole in the Ash Twin Project core at the end of the previous loop. It created a clone and said clone died and because it's the previous you, you shouldn't exist

I weirdly got the quantum moon ending the first time I removed the advanced warp core. All I had left to explore in my ship log was the ash twin project and the sixth location, so my first thought was to go to the vessel again and enter the coordinates, but I decided I'd go to the sixth location first as there must have been something important there before triggering the ending. I do that, game ends and the credits roll. I'm confused thinkiig that there's absolutely no way this is the end to the game. I immediately find a discord server to ask people question and they told me I got a "faux ending". Anyways i did what i was actually supposed to do right after

I accidentally triggered the Self Ending the first time I got into the ATP. Ended up dying from something totally unrelated the next loop, and having the screen shatter into "you destroyed the fabric of spacetime" instead of the standard death animation was one of the greatest jumpscares I've ever had in a game. Probably should have thought a bit more about what was going on with that black hole lmao

The end is so beautiful

the self ending is cool

seems like the self ending implies doing anything but going back into the black hole causes destruction of space time...

Ok what happens if : you create a clone by jumping in the black hole, but on the next loop you end the game the way it's supposed to end ?

I got the broke space time one by accident and thought my monitor broke

Perfection.

Isn't it ironic that we can get a "you destroyed the fabric of spacetime" while removing the black/white hole cores, when it's exactly what happends with information in the ash twin project, when we remove the core, but still have the eye of the universe coordinates without probems.
