danielpholt Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 I used a walkthrough to finish off a section and now I feel like I've cheapened the entire game 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did the same for Talos Principle and I can't shake the feeling that it sort of cheapened that one too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMightyEthan Posted February 4, 2016 Report Share Posted February 4, 2016 If you run into an impossible one you can fail it intentionally and then run back and solve the previous puzzle again which will generate a new random one for the one you failed.

danielpholt Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 I feel my time with The Witness is coming to something of an abrupt end. I've done enough to get into the mountain, and I'll probably work my way through that content over the next few days. I started The Witness really enjoying my time with it, but as its puzzles became more and more complex I could feel myself slowly reaching for the internet and that's robbed the game of its most important aspect; achievement. It's still a fantastic game, but I've found myself spending more and more of my time with the game in a state of near constant frustration. Is that my fault or the games? I dunno.

SomTervo Posted March 11, 2016 Report Share Posted March 11, 2016 (edited) Been absolutely rammed by a couple of the puzzles in this game. I feel you, DPH. I looked up the solution for a tetris puzzle I mistakenly thought was a tutorial one, because I hadn't explored the rest of the island, and it sort of spoiled it for me. Now I'm getting to really complex puzzles and sitting there thinking "I can spend 2 hours to try and do this and maybe do it, or I can look it up (thus ruining the game) or I can play another game which I'll be progressing within 10 minutes". It's a pity. Says more about us than the game in any way, though! Edit: There is one puzzle I think they didn't tutorial well enough, though. Reveal hidden contents For the colour-based "quarantine" ones in the Bunker, which were fantastic on the whole, there is one (the last one on the second sequence, directly opposite the entrance door) where the solution is to quarantine two red squares separately. This isn't how you've been trained to do it - you've been trained in the preceding 5 puzzles to segment the coloured squares into groups together. Eg if there are two greens and two blues, you block the two greens into a group and the two blues into a group. Then out of nowhere there is a puzzle which you can only solve if you give the two red squares their own little quarantine. It pissed me off because I spent literally a week trying to quarantine the red ones together in a big long group, then eventually, frustrated, I googled it, and you just separate them into their own space – which I thought was against the rules.
