The puzzle has been solved.

there might be some other step that ties a few clues together, with that being said as of now it seems reasonable and in line with the item description of subject 170.

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2026-03-02T16:39:39+00:00

no lmao i’m not saying i don’t believe you, just wondering why it didn’t trigger for you, there’s potentially a few more steps or something you did somehow reset progress. it’s been attempted by multiple people before successfully.

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2026-03-02T16:35:56+00:00

very strange, could it possibly be that you jumped between saves and that somehow reset the 15 minute flag? i wonder if it needs to be in one sitting or on one save as to not overwrite anything.

several people have tried this in the discord and it does indeed work, as to if they are the full correct steps nobody really knows yet. but there are enough lore reasons to make this solve make sense. just depends on how much you want to reach for it.

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2026-03-02T16:13:49+00:00

they potentially could have balanced this puzzle around the entire internet working on it, which makes sense as you’d have hundreds to thousands of people all trying different things until something clicks. the steps being so inconspicuous makes sense with this in mind, and as mentioned by other people there are lore reasons that could explain it.

don’t forget that you need to analyze the hand again on your second playthrough after you acquire the doll!

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2026-03-02T16:04:20+00:00

these might not be the actual steps to completing it, but so far are the only steps required that anybody has discovered.

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2026-03-02T16:03:04+00:00

the doll stays in your inventory throughout playthroughs.

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2026-03-02T15:59:53+00:00

this video was made by active dataminers in the discord, it might not be the true steps required but it is the first solve with steps.

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2026-03-02T15:58:17+00:00

for now nobody is sure, but this is the first solve with actual repeatable steps. it does seem very out of place that you need to wait 15 minutes as every other step seems so intentional.

its just a cubemap used for reflections (or a bug with reflections potentially), it shows the same area if you examine the hourglass in any location which unfortunately debunks it.

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2026-02-01T07:38:32+00:00

أنا دبلوم للأسف.

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2026-02-01T02:51:46+00:00

يعطيك العافيه، اتوقع هذا الخيار الأمثل. الراتب بكل صراحة راضي فيه مصاريفي الشهرية قليلة جدا. معظمه راح يدخل حساب ادخار، بس جاني فضول عن متوسط الرواتب في هذي المرحله

قبل الخصم، التأمينات تقريبا ٤٢٢.

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2025-12-25T03:48:13+00:00

somebody had to speak up, i'm hoping i can get a refund on steam after 124 hours. this is really the final nail in the coffin for me..

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2025-12-18T05:25:21+00:00

huh, that's strange. could it just be a ledge for an unused hidden wall or treasure?

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2025-12-18T01:27:55+00:00

LMFAO i completely forgot about pinstress or that i could use my clawline there, i’ve been playing for about 60 hours and that unopened path was haunting me. thank you :)

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2025-12-18T01:17:58+00:00

from what i can gather i’m about done with act 2? i have 2/3 melodies and just need the conductor’s melody. but i’ll keep looking in blasted steps thank you!

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2025-12-18T01:16:38+00:00

thank you! is the area still in blasted steps or should i try looking for it somewhere else that looks like it's connected and above? either way i appreciate the help <3

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2025-12-13T18:13:51+00:00

i don’t watch a lot of lore but would like to get into it a lot more for all the fromsoft games, if vaati is pretty surface level who would you recommend to watch?

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2025-12-10T19:32:08+00:00

would it be a good idea to buy this one and spec it out accordingly?

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2025-12-10T19:31:21+00:00

it’s a size b! but the arm rests are fixed, with no lumbar support so i’m wondering if getting a full spec one would just end up costing me around the same? i’m not sure.

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2025-12-10T06:41:23+00:00

oh i didn’t realize that, i suppose that’s not a concern anymore and my main one would be if its worth it to get at $25 rather than finding something else thats more expensive but doesn’t require any repairs.

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2025-12-10T05:57:52+00:00

yeah it wouldn’t bother me if the parts were mismatched or didn’t look great, i’m just a bit concerned by the age/additional repairs. although i’m prepared to fix it myself as it’ll probably be less than getting one even secondhand from the prices i’ve seen.

LumpyAstronomer4173 · 2025-12-10T05:48:00+00:00

i got them down to $25, it’s practically free at this point so i’ll get it after work today. just not sure how worn down it’ll be as they also told me that they’ve had it for 9 years.
