It's a little old reunion, but still not with Joseph.

Ummm... Scruffs... have you at any point considered turning off your flashlight when attempting to sneak around? I haven't played this game, mind, but I think it might make you slightly less conspicuous.

Time to stretch our legs and expand our range with another safe room.

And lasers.

You've missed a document in the underground room where you found the first explosive bolt. You can see it briefly around 6:05 in the video.

So was that large house from the begginning of the video unenterable?

Welp, I guess the daily updates had to end someday.

I think you're supposed to hit those multi-headed guys in the raw red bits and not the dead blue bits. The slow head doesn't actually have any red on it, you need to hit the butt somehow. Or maybe the midsection?

I think the slow form is there to let you put some distance between them and yourself since the red one seems to move faster than you can sprint. So basically hit the red side, run away, line up another shot, wait for it to switch sides. Rinse, repeat.

Sadly for Sebastian he's been living with Beacons every day since he got out. STEM just makes it more visceral.

For a second I thought City Hall turned into Beacon for a second, but that's just restoring that collapsed tower.

Did you find that extra med pouch or did jumping into the boss fight lock it off from you?

He found it before the boss fight.

You've missed a statue in the Marrow - it's in that dead end behind the chainlink fence, lying horizonally on the pipe above your head - you can see it here

You are all giving MOBIUS a heck of a lot of credit when it comes to forethought. These are the people that kidnapped an insane person and forced him to create the machine the entire population of the world would all live inside and then took apart his body and made him the control center for that machine. They are not a very forward-thinking group.

I'm going to play the devil's advocate here and point out that :

a) Ruvik designed STEM before MOBIUS had any involvement with him. It's Jimenez's fault that they took notice of him at all.
b) We don't know wheter or not MOBIUS intended STEM to have global range from the start or if they changed their plans later.
c) Ruvik had modified the (at that point) only STEM in existence so that it would only work with him (or, to be more exact, his brain) as a core. He really didn't think that move through.

Wasn't it heavily implied that the STEM effects also worked somewhat in the real world? Some TEW1 stuff under the tags here: Like I remember the Ruvik-possessed Leslie essentially teleporting at the end of The Evil Within 1, and wasn't Ruvik a ghost killing cops in the real world at the start of TEW1, too?

Maybe the plan is that once the entire world is enveloped in STEM, Mobius can use it to physically alter the real world, too, and not just the dream world? I'm honestly not sure, but it would make the whole plot make a lot more sense.

I don't think we need to spoiler tag events from the first game. Regarding the second part of the spoilered text, I thought that the implication was that from the moment when the gang heard the signal in the car everything took place in STEM. How the gently caress they all ended up in those tubs was never explained.

And as for the first part, I think at that point they weren't yet sure whether or not they were going to make a sequel and the ending was meant to make you question whether or not Sebastian had actually managed to leave STEM or if the was still trapped in it. But that's just my interpretation.

So... When do you realise that it's the all-seeing eye in the sky that's making the growling noise, scruffy?

Did you miss a statue tucked away at ~31m in? Before the jump down and the mirror?

Nope, that's not a statue, he hasn't missed one in this chapter yet, at least according to the guide I'm checking. So far he's missed... five kes I think, six if the shooting gallery is gone permanently. The one he picked in this chapter should be #21 if he was getting them all.

And that's missed key #6. This one was in the house you were taking a stand in, somewhere in the rafters apparently.
