But in all seriousness, here's hoping some of the Anons who were enjoying Blue Prince find their way over here. I am currently fishing for a Pump Room. I wanna see if I can introduce some chests to my morning star.

>>1101219 Alas, the answer is no. I expected as much, but the wording got me hopeful.

>>1101219 lol I was there I was going to post my luck before 4chin was kill now I just need to make it happen again with the laboratory made it to room 46, so now I feel comfortable messing about again now I need a magnifying glass to test a theory I have in the drawing room

I have gotten every permanent upgrade but still haven't gotten a single gen for one of the room 46 doors. I'm on day 7. Am I just getting RNG'ed or is this the norm?

>>1101395 The only protip I can give is to pay attention to the flow of power. Specifically, make sure you're opening doors in the same direction that the power is flowing by moving the lever on the Boiler room generator, and if a room has a glowing line running into it when you draft, it can transmit power. >>1101436 Honestly, getting 4 permanent upgrades by day 7 is pretty damn good. It took me i think 20 days to get them. I'm now 50 days in (~40 hours) and the game keeps leading me along with new shit.

>>1101436 >all permanent upgrades on day 7 lucky I'm 20 hours in and still don't have the last one

>pic related I also have ~30 pages of a real-life notebook filled out. If anyone has any non-spoiler questions about lore or other details I may be able to help. Trying my best to fully understand the world of the game, and I've been rewarded many times for it.

it's a little scary how much you can potentially miss like how the boudior will look like the photo when you draft it on christmas. and I'm certain that a statue depicting the saint of maids can appear in the maid's quarters, but I've only seen it once

Wish me luck, I'm going for the Day One victory trophy.

>>1104757 Ganbare!

>>1104302 I actually tried to draft the Boudoir on that day and it refused to show up. On an unrelated note, does anyone who is far enough know if you eventually can reset/change your room upgrades?

What wound up being in the black chest with 3 keys after you do the shrine swap? I was having fun monitoring anons' progress on the old threads.

Fun game but I wish some stuff was a bit faster, like the terminals, or running to the outdoor room every day.

When did you realize that the color rules for the slider box puzzles are based on the historical events of the region? It was fun to Intuit new color rules based off my history notes

>>1104931 I should probably pay more attention to those history books...

>>1104896 Yeah after 100+ days you really start to wish for stuff like that. I always want the computers to respond like the ones in Fallout 3 and NV. The start of the day panning into the Entrance Hall should be skippable. Revealing the safe in the Drawing Room is an unnecessarily long cutscene. The one in the Office works perfectly, you can start pressing buttons while the safe is rising up in there. Why doesn't the other one work that way?

>>1104863 royal scepter that lets you choose a color and if you end the day in that color room you keep the scepter. blue scepter + blue crown + cursed idol in throne room = blue throne perma upgrade that unlocks all blue doors

>>1105112 Yeah the terminals kill me and i probably havent found everything on them just because i dont want to wait for it

>>1101219 I'd enjoy this game more if the dev actually had the ability to design a puzzling world to navigate instead of offloading the discovery and solution beats of good puzzle games onto the player's RNG.

>>1101219 I managed to roll a library and get enough dosh for the two 50 gold books, right now I'm waiting as well for the boiler pump/lab and those rooms with chest pieces

>>1113392 Holy shit, lad.

how do you make money in this game? I'm lucky if I get 15 coins in a run, and most of those are usually eaten by the chapel

>>1113673 Early on, there's no good way to make money. As you progress different things like the permanent additions, you'll probably stumble into a few Allowance tokens. These things can be found all over the place in various secret nooks or in a puzzle box. Doubly so if you get a good Experiment. These are permanent money bonuses you get at the start of each day. And after a while, they add up nicely. I start each day with 79 coins thus far.

>spend over an hour with a 300% speedhack trying to power the archives >does fuck all and is not what the aquarium hint is about I hate this game so much. I already know what other thing I should try but it's all so tedious.

>>1113710 I really need to use experiments more I never bother with them because usually I never get the lab early enough for it to be worth it

>>1113673 Find a treasure map and a shovel

Well, I have made.. some progress. Exhibit spoiler.

>>1114559 Ye

>Fuck it, let's try for day 1 trophy >Actually get a powered Pump room day 1 >No Foundation, Keycard, relevant rooms, etc. Oh this is going to be a bitch.

Huh.

>>1115173 My most recent try. Had high hopes for it about halfway through after getting the Garage but a 2nd Ivory Die never showed up when I needed it so I couldn't guarantee a Tomb in the Outer Room.

>>1117806 Jesus. Well, I did find one important thing at least, Great Hall day 1, the lever should be 3rd door on the right. Doorways are middle both sides. The game seems to use a seed to generate rooms per-day, which is also influenced by resources gained, but the first rooms you draft and daily-reset things like Great Hall RNG should be fixed. The first rooms you draw always seem to be Bedroom, Closet, Hallway.

>>1118005 Nevermind. The lever in Great Hall changes.

>>1118005 There's definitely some sort of seeding/weighting at work. Going east or west with the first door from the Entrance Hall always gives Bedroom, Closet, and Hallway for me on day 1. After that the RNG seems to kick in.

I just spent three hours schizoing over A New Clue my head hurts now

>>1121700 I feel you, brother. There's definitely more, but at least I got the chip.

>>1121813 it doesn't help that I unlocked the vault lockbox the day before

>>1121869 THE? Surely you meant a lockbox.

>>1122226 lol I suppose so it was the one with the passport in it

>>1123202 Oh don't worry, I know which one you got. :^) In other news, I have to remake the Power Sledge...

post you're aquarium house

>>1127499 Fuck, it's so obvious why that works how it does yet I'm only just getting it.

>>1113392 You literally don't even need the magnifying glass, you can make out the word "swan"

man, the grade 4 classroom escalated things quickly

>>1104302 what's worse is not knowing if any of this shit is relevant. I've got a notebook page full of me deducing the saint names which I assume is relevant for something because they keep dripfeeding bits of it. The only thing that has paid off was autistically jotting down stamp details though I realize now I should've just taken a picture

So I tried to do the Trophy of Speed (Reach Room 46 in under an hour). I assumed it meant "under 1 hour in-game time in a single day." There was no trophy when I got there about 10 in-game minutes early. So I think you gotta get there either in 1 real-world hour on a new save or god forbid, 9 minutes on a new save.

>>1131149 I've tried going old school pen and paper with the game as much as possible, but I finally broke down and took two screenshots in the grade 4 classroom

Unfortunately, I gotta put the game down and go to work. But I did at least make more headway. >Finished the Power Sledge... third time, opened all the doors in a certain place >Opened a new file cabinet >Found out where another file cabinet key is, which I missed before >Solved another Sigil, bringing me to 3/8, on the cusp of the others, gotta reread some books >55 hours deep now >Thinking about the game often

>>1132373 Amendment, >opened all the doors up to the one with the funny symbol

Does anyone know if the inventory check in the security room counts buried items or not?

>>1132840 It does not. Buried items don't even exist until dug up. The RNG is ran when you dig it up, which lets the game account for if you have metal detector and/or jackhammer.. Also a random fun fact, dig spots have a very rare chance of giving you the broken lever.

>>1132875 Ahh ok thanks, guess I gotta search better. I had a bunch of stuff missing including an upgrade disk.

Yeah, I think I'm done with the game. Brute forcing would've probably been faster than actually hunting after some of those sigil hints. Shoutout to Cheat Engine for saving over 20 hours of my life.

man, I'm really happy I know what the doors in the sanctum are for now. I got really lucky with the boxes in the reservoir

The idea of a shifting layout puzzlegame with House of Leaves geometry should be right up my alley but I think I'm gonna wait until they iron some shit out, I've heard that bad RNG can rail you into bricking way too easily.

>>1139452 I just abused the Laundry Room to give me dpzens of keys lol.

>>1127499 ><> blub <>< blub blub Went from the game crashing on a 90 minutes insane run to being forced to wait 20 minutes, how u doin?

I love the witness and outer wilds so much and i dont like this game. I think i actually hate it. It does things that make me mad and halt the small amount of fun i was almost having. Fuck this rng bullshit puzzle game in its blue ass. Thank god i got it for free at least.

>finally got power to the laundry room star wash is absolutely broken. I will never be poor again

>>1142045 By the time I finally saw that, I had more Allowance than Stars lol

>>1142092 then that means I have a lot of room to grow because I only had 6 allowance and 26 stars

>>1142132 Yes. Yes you do.

>>1117806 It's probably not going to happen but as a reminder just incase If happen to get lab + boiler room connection you can try going for drafting the throne room >>1121418 Going east/west from entrance puts you along the edge of the manor, if a room would have its door facing the edge then it won't be drafted. So dead ends and 2 door rooms become a lot more common

I'm waiting on the inevitable QoL patch Waiting an hour for item pickup and terminal animations across all those runs? I don't think so

I FINALLY got power to the laboratory it's funny that I've had that puzzle solved for at least a dozen hours before finally being able to complete it. I thought the sequence would be longer and then already having both chips but good on the cheeky fuckers for making the admin pass I found useless

>Possibly found the code for the office safe >The office refuses to spawn for 4 fucking days

there is no easy closure in Blue Prince, only cloister

I just had a great run on day 15. Had frozen my accounts the day before so I stared with 7 gems and 40 coins, got the laundry room so I ended up with way more gems and keys that I would need, reached the antechamber for the first time, drained the fountain, entered the basement, realized I could do nothing there without going back to the pump room to fix the water level for the boat, did that, came back to the basement, reached the lever, IT OPENS THE FINAL ROOM ALL THE WAY BACK IN THE ANTECHAMBER AND I HAVE NO FUCKING STEPTS LEFT. I contemplated suicided but then realized the basement door remains open so now I can unlock the room at the start of every day, but reaching the antechamber again is a pain in the ass by itself.

damn

>>1132340 lasted longer than me lol. I got through the whole demo and solved all the portrait messages on pen and paper (though it was completely lost on me) the second I found the shitty torn sigil book I took photos, so now all my notes are scattered between a notebook, a phone and steam screenshots

>>1144984 there are wizards that solve things and don't share, little guideling

>Unlocked something special a while ago, namely the satellite dish by complete mistake >Haven't been paying attention to the major reward from that >Check it today >Literal dozens of hints and spoilers thrown at me, some obvious, some not Holy mother of screenshotsville.

Well, that makes 8 Trophies (won't let me upload a pic for some reason). Time to find out how much blue tents costs.

Damn, after 80 hours and a fake "ending" I didn't expect a whole new fucking 46 rooms area to opened up after another clue hunt.

I know the game has a lot of positive aspects, but I don't know how you people can bear to deal with all the TIME-WASTING in this game

Blue Prince sounds like blueprints

>>1167779 after 41 hours, I don't even notice them anymore and the need to solve everything is too great

>>1168013 This.

>>1168013 I reached room 46 after 15 hours and am ready to call it quits at least for now, stuff like the chess puzzle is too RNG dependent for my taste

>>1168102 Wait till ya find out you have to do it twice, possible 2 more times after first depending on your original choice for a different puzzle.

>>1167779 3x speedhack
