Side Quest with Secret Ending - Horizon Zero Dawn
Ойындар
Wanted to make a video about the Secret Ending or Easter Egg on Fatal Inheritance since a lot people dont seem to be aware of it. Since the only play I could find where it was mentioned was the Horizon Wiki. It also helps saving time when I do 100% speedruns of Horizon Zero Dawn which is awesome.

I love that the devs decided to do things like this instead of keeping everything purely linear which makes the game feel more natural and alive. I often wonder what and how many lines I missed because I noticed that already completing another quests give you some extra lines in other quests. The devs truly did consider and set alot of alternatives. And I can see that they gave love and care for what they had created.

@@TheMrblessed I rushed through the story and made the game harder than it needed to be. I fought my first deathbringer when I was level 12-15 on a level 20 something mission. I rushed to get the ancient armour without doing any side missions. That stormbird took me a whole day to kill after reaching the top of the mountain. After getting the armour I noticed that harder machines spawned all over the map. To make matters worst I went to the DLC area at level 20 trying to get the banuk bows. Had to run pass the first demonic machine as I spent over an hour getting one shorted. Every machine in the dlc area is OP.
I could never go through with this ending. Even though I know that no one in this game actually exists I would feel bad if someone died who I could have saved. I get attached to characters in games.

Talking about Olin, after rescuing Olin's family, if I talk to Olin again, it doesn't give me a new dialogue as usual. Does this happen to everyone?
This is what I really like about hzd, they consider even dialogs for if players decide to do things out of order. I went back to Rost's grave during the all-mother's invasion, and Aloy has a very specific line saying how she feels like visiting him even though there's an emergency going on. If you visit other places during the invasion, you will find interesting details too, such as the Aloy commenting about the merchant guy dying or her trying to find Old Greta but she went into hiding.

This is pretty cool. I just found a secret ending of my own. Not sure if you know about it, but I bet you do. The side quest Robbing the Rich has a secret ending. Nasan is already at the Shadow Carja fort, apparently from the start of the game. If you rescue him before beginning the quest, then instead of having to meet with the thief leader in the lakeside shack, you just tell the lady at the market stall that you already saved Nasan and tell her to stop stealing heirlooms. Probably a significant time save, too.

Not really a secret ending since the ending is the same, it’s just an alternate route. A lot of quests are like this like if you have an item someone needs in your inventory already, you can skip the hunting part of a quest. But, great tip though!
So basically helping someone evil saves you time... Horizon is basically instigating some messed up stuff
The amount of details in this game is amazing

When the "secret" ending is actually the worse ending...
cool showing. Thank you for this. I did not have any idea there was alternate ways to do any of the missions.
These is a quest where you have to get back a sword that got stolen. In the normal ending you have to rescue someone for the thieves and then they will return the sword and come to a deal. But you can rescue the guy before the quest, if you do that it cuts out a lot of the quest and the sword just gets returned.

Not sure about Forbidden West, but that spherical device you find in A Moment's Peace is actually a part of GAIA herself. If you speak to CYAN (from the Frozen Wilds) after doing A Moment's Peace, it will hint at the machine being exactly that. Then again, the Oseram tinkers themselves comment that the device looks as if it "fell from the sky", and if you pay attention, the clues point at it falling from the general direction of the Gaia Prime facility.

An Easter Egg is a reference to, or an item from, another game (or more rarely from a movie or song).

I did NG+ many times and experimented with quests in different orders from the previous playthroughs and you can see a lot of different lines. On the top of my head: I had the dlc. In new game+, after the world opens up and immediately you go to Banuk lands, if you complete the dlc Silenz won't be introduced yet and thus won't comment on the ending (awakening of Hephaestus and running rampant) but the line will then trigger once Aloy investigates the heart of the mountain. If you destroy all bandit camps without talking to Nil, he won't be a quest NPC (duh) but after the last bandit camp, he will be marked on the map as a quest and will comment that he has heard of the exploits of Aloy and how she's "doing his job". No different ending though, you still duel (or not duel) and kill him. Collection quests where you already have the objective item, the quest giver has different lines. It amazed me how Guerilla had the foresight and recorded these dialogue changes just in case.
