With their mystery stories, mystery novels and arcade games Of software You're not done making players think. This time, the solved puzzle is none other than the hidden message puzzle Evil spirits.
A 10 year old secret
It was in 2013 that YouTubers Fake wall Discover unknown message files in the first installment of the Dark Souls game series. “Try light” And “Try lighting” (respectively, “try the light” and “try the lightning” in French) are messages that were introduced into the base game by the developers, possibly to help players. They have been known to the community for a little over a year. Ten years. However, until now, No one has discovered the whereabouts of these messages and therefore what they mean.
Now solved: It's the same content creator, Phantom Wall, who found the answer to this 10-year-old question.
Illusory Wall recounted its discovery in the Miracle Seek Guidance video, which allows the player to see more messages on the floor. With help HotPocketRemixcreator of a tool to decompress Dark Souls files on Nexus Mods, the YouTuber has realized that the messages in question were never used, and were replaced by other messages in a post-launch patch for the game.
The help messages end up being a bit useless…
By restoring the default version of Dark Souls on PS3, Illory Wall found the location of the missing letters: one of them is in a fairly obvious place: the “try light” is located right at the entrance to the Tomb of the Giants, the entire area immersed in darkness.
The other message, “Try the Lightning,” was found near Chief Pinwhell (or Virevent in French), the chief of the catacomb region that borders the Giants' Graveyard. According to the Illusory Wall Theory, the message was to be placed there to trick players into using stun attacks on the water pool in Pinwheel's arena to help them kill the clones he summons. A useless message just like the previous one, since Pinwheel is so easy to beat that even the worst players will have no trouble getting rid of it.
In short, even if it's an uninteresting secret, it's a new Dark Souls mystery that's been revealed. Until next…
