Blue Prince

cool
i never had problems with steps tho

The last puzzle, finding the blue prince book, is basically saying this nonsense is the only way the mother can interact with her son and tell him all the shit she did.

Speaking of funny tricks (though this one is intentional), try taking an Electro Magnet into the Locksmith room. Watch what happens.

ESL here, how the fuck does the ul/lu particle works? Why it is not elteach but ulteach?

Yes. The rumpus room fortune teller’s last prophecy is bullshit, there is no additional content planned, Mary can’t come back, so all she could do to tell her son all the shit she did was scattered through the house.

It’s pretty much that old animal crossing pasta about a kid introducing animal crossing to his terminally ill mother and then coming back to it after and finding all the shit she did and left for him

but a lot of the mysteries are unfinished, either because they game's still gonna get content (which it is, to be clear, although the only thing confirmed is a minigame), as sequel bait, or just to be mysterious

It just leaves a bitter taste that the game feels incomplete with how it throws some clues at you at the end that just go nowhere like theROSEWARY and solarium thing.

What the fuck was Mary's problem? What's the point of stealing red crown and painting it blue? There is not even a blue realm in that world. They could've painted it black because Orinda Aries existed at one point, but then the game would be called Black Prince. Even the first Alzaran prophecy tells about black and red colors, possibly pointing at Orinda and Fenn. Or is Mary just wishing for another country other than Fenn and rest of the world, thus the blue color as no other realm is blue.

Which is silly because phone, mail, and email exist and the inner court already suspect she's behind the heist.

The prefix denotes the subject of the verb. Ulteach would be "you teach". Elteach would be "I teach". The "me" is being treated as implicit there. If they wanted to include it, it would be ovelulteach.

This stupid stamp is driving me crazy.

'me' on 'you teach me' is implicit
It's not about the direct object, but the subject

Simon must think his mother is insane.

I hope this post is not a political statement!

It’s that the kid is rightful heir to a throne of a sovereign nation that the redniggers stole from the blackniggers, but has no reason to honor the customs or ideals of the blackniggers. History has decoupled him from any sort of obligation to the past and the future is his alone, as ruler, as soon as he wants to be, of his own future.

or something. It’s a coming of age story.

Mary thinks there should be a new country that's blue.
She has autism and Simon inherited it.

Oh god, I was hyperfocusing on this text here and wondering how "I will/I will not" relates to ul/lu instead of translating the answers and understanding that ul/lu is "you/no u"

Phone, mail, and email, can be traced

She didn't paint it blue, she replaced the 8 red rubies in it with sapphires. That's where the 6 rubies you get with the letters come from (+ the 2 mentioned as having already turned up).

Also, yeah a lot doesn't make sense. The crown was always red even when it belonged to Oris, so desecrating it doesn't make much sense in the first place. There's also the matter of the original idea being to return the crown to Oris, but then she ended up leaving it in Reddington for you. That's likely because Mount Holly is the site of the original capital of Orinda Aries, but the idea was for the seat of power to be in Oris for the king to be closer to the people. Frankly she basically shit all over the legacy she was butthurt about.

So what’s the translation of the note in the tomb? I haven’t bothered because literally every time I’ve gone hard on solving some puzzle in this game, it’s a clue for shit I’ve already solved.

She's implied to be in either Corarica or Eraja. Literally who gives a shit? Also payphones exist given the time period, I'm sure.

give this game a shot

it's literally just slowly walking through rng rooms getting collectibles that are worthless

How is this meant to be fun? The only puzzle I found was piss easy.

Oris invaded/conquered aries, thus their crown is invalid according to Mary, that’s why she altered it.

redniggers stole from the blackniggers

I'm surprised there haven't been any fennposting or orindaposting or nobody got called a morajai nigger in Blue Prince threads. There's a glimpse of potential here.

The slowly walking rng fest is only the beginning unfortunately.

She committed crimes that would invalidate her child’s claims to sovereignty, is the logic at work. If anyone else could figure out the connections, they’re all in prison and they take Mount Holly

It’s because none of the nations have a distinct identity. They’re all just trivia to solve other puzzles that only amount in a trophy

alright faggots, wish me luck

The last answer is 46

I'm about mostly done with it, I think.

To my first iris,
You are my day, you are my night, you are my world.
To you I gift my house to the south. This is the dawn of your future without me.
This is the dawn of my future without you. First, I bid you heed my word : You oddiris.
Abandon House Sinclair. Abandon House Epsen... Forget your ein inn.
Your jorjeari. Your future is to the south away from Fenn. Your einjoro away.
To Eraja. To the south is a new future.

I'm guessing it's a letter from Herbert to Mary before she left?

I know commies aren't very smart, but what the fuck was the point of wrecking all the railways supposed to be

I'm not done with the game, but I don't think we're ever given definitive proof that the MC is descended from the royal line that fled to Eraja even if he is Erajan.

Destroy a major national symbol. Also makes a counterrevolution hard to organize and supply.

The plot thickens when you learn the history of Orindia and find that Orinda Aries was not the good and noble realm that you might expect, casting further suspicion on Mary's actions.

Why does fire open up the sundial? The game has a bunch of stupid "puzzles" where you get a note that tells you to do something random in a random spot and this has got to be the peak.
How does that even make sense in-universe?

I did this shit by accident. Haven't found a clue for it yet. Why is because Herbert liked stupid puzzles. That's not exactly impossible to engineer.

It’s just bad game design. It’s practically constant to find hints for shit you already solved because of basic “game” logic. The worst example being the painting puzzles telling you how to open safes you’ve already opened

I like it. It means that even if there's a secret you'll never notice, you might find the other secret and solve the puzzle.

Was there 30 or 20 minutes for the exam? Because I barely managed to answer everything before the time started to run out.

fml

Cs make degrees.

I got an A- on my first try. Glad I don't have to do that shit again.

That’s just why Mary doesn’t want to establish the blackniggers

What do you get for getting a good mark? I got B-

this game seems stupid. i played it on ps plus and all you do is walk slowly and choose rooms to walk into and get gems, keys and bananas and some shit. theres no point to this game. thank god it was free on ps plus, bc i would be mad if i paid for this garbage. the reviews are so botted

Landmark location for deciding battle of the War of the Fifth Era

Colossus Orinda

I don't see anything which points to that place, there's one map which mentions it but I don't see it anywhere else.

It's a nonlinear game with multiple hints for various puzzles. That's good game design.

If anything some solutions are too rare. The only solution to the Office being in the Foyer is rough.

A trophy for any A grade.

the worst example is swansong being spelled on the monitors if you don't just read it on the scribbled note in the same room

You can see it in the history class slides

Bear in mind you need 8 trophies to unlock the hint system.

This is stupid given how much harder finding the clues for that shit is than finding a magnifying glass.

I liked the puzzle that leads you to the sundial, I just hated how the reward is more slots for microchips when I can't even find the other two for the Grotto.

I don't think so.

I just hated how the reward is more slots for microchips when I can't even find the other two for the Grotto

You'll laugh when you find the 2nd microchip. Definite "I guess nothing said I couldn't do that" moment.

There's more to the monitors than just "Swansong" though

Have you gotten all the mail room letters? One of the letters basically says that everything leading to blackbridge is hidden in A New Clue

I have already spent so much time staring at that damn book

Well, besides the fact you can't do that to any of the other identical copy-paste vases

Yes. The sad part is that the community DOESN'T think it's fully solved yet when it is. The game has zero content left according to datamining.

One slide in the classroom shows battle taking place in a town scenery.
Another slide where people are celebrating is taking place in a nondescript empty land. I am not seeing this Colossus Orinda anywhere. But I guess it's the only correct answer because:

angel tower is not mentioned anywhere, not even on a map unlike the Colossus

Royal Museum of Fenn was created after Leerson's death

Mount Holly wasn't related to this specific war

Looking at the discord every now and then is pretty funny, it's fucking insane chaos in there. I can't believe people think it's a good platform for collecting and storing info, every single thread or topic is a mess of people joining late and asking answered questions, or disrupting any actual discussion on insane attempts at finding more puzzles

There's definitely more content coming. Dirigiblocks, for one thing.

To be fair, datamining wouldn't tell you certain shit. Anything ARG or just hidden messages in shit already in the game.

I don't think there's anything like that given how direct all the other clues are, but I can see how people might think otherwise. The dumbass robot kinda primes the player base to expect more than what is in the game.

its almost like discord is worthless or something

angel tower is not mentioned anywhere, not even on a map unlike the Colossus

Actually it's on the guidebook and subway maps.

dirgiblocks is a tetris reference negro.

He didn't see the signs.

The game outright says dirigiblocks is coming in a later patch, dipshit.

Yeah. There are attempts to make databases and someone registered a wiki that still seems to be in the onboarding process but on the whole the Discord is ridiculously inefficient because of its nature. I'm just watching it to see if someone can prove me wrong and actually find something huge, but there's just been nothing. The wiki is personally going to be the best closure I can get personally for the game since I can put my notes there and forget about the game.

I know. The only sane thing left to do is wait for that.

Well, the thing is the dev said he wanted people to be able to solve the game on their own and specifically said he didn't add ARGs. But the dev also said he wanted to sell a complete game that won't need updates or DLC but the game breaks the fourth wall to tell you to wait for the Dirigiblocks update so who the heck knows what's going on over there. The game's pretty huge and dense so it's definitely possible for dataminers to overlook things, but again, they've found nothing so far.

oh my fucking god
I read this book 50 hours ago. I also saw the metro map but skimmed through it, decided it's probably for the new clue and I left it for later. That's a lot of faraway clues for a single exam question.

the devs said there aren't going to be any patches.

I'll join you
I don't understand my low Erajan score, I really studied that shit
I believe that alone would have taken me to A territory

Not him, but that's news to me. Link?

dirigiblocks home edition doesn't imply that

he didn't study for the final

You don't say.

I didn't and managed to squeeze out an A- and get the trophy. ggez

No, it was 2am, I was 1 hour into the run and wanted to get it done. I never was good at those kind of games.
Also

day old last

you something first something large

night day

not your word name?day

Any erajan masters can help me understand how ULRAAJORAM breaks up into specific words? Of course it's the only word which makes sense here. I guess "raa" means "name" so it's ul-raa-aj-or-am? Where did this OR come from?

Jor = name

Of course it had to be in A New Clue.

The only solution to the Office being in the Foyer is rough.

I solved it entirely in the office somehow. I found the intended solution later.
"If we count small gates..."

Any idea why Clara Epsen's diary has a map of the West Path?

Based on the tile placed on the Outer Room, it's supposed to hint that you need to monk the Antechamber there for a clue. I've seen people also try to connect it to the spiral but I don't think that goes anywhere.

lolwut
at least do it on the floor wtf

It spreads to the floor eventually the more dirt you spread.

First time I get to the middle block in the chamber of mirrors; I have an idea of what I need to do now but my middle button is not interactable anymore
Is this intended

game put me to sleep within an hour, is it even worth playing

game keeps teasing at you visiting cool new locations

it never happens

legit mad

How long did it take you to reach full end? And how many spoilers did you use to get there? Don't lie. I know anyone saying under 150 hours is full of shit.

Well if you some slight hints (I'm not going to spoiler this whole message), there are two separate clues you're missing, each on individual pages so they're kinda easy to overlook while you're doing the whole book puzzle you've already done.
One is on a text page, one is on an illustration. They're both very simple, but the illustration one is so simple of a hint it's hard to even consider.

What in the fuck

used the Axe on the Vault because I was tired of finding deposit box keys and not being able to use them

I didn't know that you can only use the Axe three times

There must be an all-true box. There must be an all-false box.
White has the gems.

Ov=towards)(eld=my)(aj=1st)(iris=daughter),

(Ul=you are)(eld=my)(dau=day), (ul)(eld)(nai=night), (ul)(eld)(mora=? everything?)

(Ov=towards) (ul=you,)(el i)-(gift, give)-(eld, my)(hew=house) (Ov=towards/in the)(iss=south). (Nev=new)(dau=day) (ul=your)(arei=future) (le=without me, not me, a new future/beginning for you when i'm gone?).

(Hew=house)-Sinclair-(lu=wont,isnt) &? (Hew=house)(Epsen)(lu=wont)... -(Forget)- (uld=your) (ein=dreams) inn (north, northern dreams). (is it saying "you'll never be a sinclair or an epsen"?)

(Ov=towards)(eraja). (Ov=towards)(iss=south) (nev=new/start)(arei=future).

my theory understanding is it's clara's mother lady ashlynn who is actually the one with desilets bloodline, grew up in eraja exile, and I think kaitlin ja arri born in 1924

but if letter is from clara side, and clara is a desilets i'm confused how it relates to herbert, and simon senior feeling so strongly about orindia

notice her saying "a new future in the south", is subverted in the holly mansion, herbert letter and sanctum says "a new future in the north"

I half guessed white and it had them. I understand white is false but blue and black trip me
-Next- means immediately adjacent in this context?

White must be false because only one box can have gems. Either blue or black is true — it doesn't matter which — which means white has the gems.

Yes, "immediately adjacent" is correct. One wouldn't normally say that blue is "next to" black in this context.

thx

whats the deal with angel tower

thats what next to means. yes.
a line of three objects object 1 and 3 arent next to eachother.
