Unfinished: The Talos Principle 11/11/2014

ooo

Edit: AssCreedUnity was the ad and i didn't know that they would use "it took 10 studios" as a positive talking point. Pretty big kitchen for all those chefs.

aaah

eeeee

the way the screen jostles when you move is making me nautious

I played the public test and I'm so jealous you can play more of it now.

I wonder why the title invokes a mythological giant bronze man.

Puzzle Solved!

Ok this looks kinda rad.

Edit: IT'S A LOCKDOWN, BABY.

So this isn't a new Elder Scrolls game?

Sent a message to Vinny last week hoping he would take a look at this, oh well.

Ive played the ftp, and the test and say this isThe Witness+portal and looks amazing. It also has 3rd person view and a lot of pc options.

Too Many Cooks?

Not if you want a buffet of collectibles :)

Been keeping an eye on this one, seems pretty interesting.

Should also be noted that the game is 15% off if you own The Swapper, Antichamber or Serious Sam 3 and also comes with a free copy of Serious Sam 3.

LOCK DOWN BABY

@drewbert 'Elohim' is actually plural - it predates monotheism. Talos is a figure from ancient Greek mythos that also predates the Hebrew bible.

I've had this game on my wishlist since it showed up on Steam & this QL has made me more intrigued at the philosophy explored, but a bit less interested in the puzzles.

Looks pretty cool, and it's neat seeing Croteam do something different than what they've done in the past.

Lock me up and throw away the key.

@boodoug187: ♫ It takes a lot to make a Drew... ♫

Talos isn't a god! #ElvenMasterRace

Watching this suddenly reminded me of "The Witness." When is that game coming out? It's been years since I've seen anything about it!

@wllmyrs: would you say there's too many cooks

Looks like a game I would thoroughly enjoy.

<3 Jason

I'm way into this.

It showed up at the sony e3 conference briefly with no explanation, good to finally learn more about it.

This looks really rad, and I also have been reminded of how pumped I am for The Witness.

Would you say that it had.... Too Many Cooks?

Ryckert droppin' that Latin knowledge!

4C4946452055482046494E4453204120574159 in hex is "LIFE UH FINDS A WAY" in ASCII, right below the JEFF text at 13:37 hehe

This looks pretty cool!

Judging by my name, I am pretty close to the CroTeam devs :D

@rickybicks: @sanderjk: @boodoug187: Okay, guys. Instead of being cryptic someone could at least mention that this is the name of a recent adult swim video that you can watch on youtube.

Those guys with the tripod things are surveyors, they do stuff like looking at the contours of the land, measuring distances between points, making maps and such.

This game seems really interesting. And strange.

That QR code says exactly what it says in the game. Good. And it makes sense considering what Drew shows directly after.

Wow... Dan sounds eerily concerned by Drew's little play at 25:55. xD

This looks like a better and more interesting version of the game Jonathan Blow has been making forever and hasn't finished.

A secret/hidden thingo I noticed during the video: Pause at 21:26 and look at the left wall. It's possibly just the location of a star or similar, but it piqued my interest.

I enjoy practical puzzle solving and have a keen interest in philosophy, so this game is very appealing to me.

Did someone say Talos?

This looks super cool.

Any QL with a Lockdown reference is a good QL.

Hmm, I was expecting relentless waves of puzzles. But this looks really thoughtful and intriguing.

I'd like to think this is a Serious Sam prequel. His training, in which he's built up to be this brilliant man. But due to circumstances beyond his control, he's eventually forced to shoot like a billion rounds of ammo instead.

Hopefully the next installment bridges the gap, and shows the rise of Outer Heaven or its serious equivalent.

Interesting.

Sounds like Dan will play it.

I was mostly interested in this because of the writing by Jonas Kyratzes but the game looks really cool too.

This game looks pretty cool! It kind of reminds me of Antichamber, but less mind-bending and more just "straightforward" puzzles.

Looked to me like there was an elevator behind the green puzzle door, so there's probably more levels of puzzles?

This game seems pretty neat. Since Drew didn't show it, anyone know what the box he unlocked does?

damn, this actually looks pretty great

This looks really neat. I love puzzle games, especially those who encourage experimentation, and this has really picked my interest. 40€ might be a little too much for me though. Maybe I'm just used to indie titles that don't go over 20€, but it just feels a little too much. I'll see when the game releases.

If people are interested, here is a link to the free The Talos Principle Public Test. And while you're at it, you can also try their Sigils of Elohim teaser as well. Also free. Really great stuff Croteam ! I may strongly dislike the Serious Sam series, but this is really well done !
