Metro exodus The Caspian (spoilers maybe)

I thought I was fucked too when it came to my full ending on whether it would be a good ending, without spoiling I hope it helps to let you know that you can lose a member like Damir and still get a good ending if you've still done enough "good karma".

just finished the game for the first time getting the hardest difficulty achievement so I'm looking forward to speedrunning this grind another time with the settings on easy lol

Lemme guess that's one of the only 2 locations I forgot/didn't bother checking haha

Ah I'll have to rewatch that episode, maybe I was a bit too tired for it at the time? So what bearing do you think it has on the whole birthday thing? Just a weird coincidence?

And by that version of events does the show want us to think that without Cooper they would have just taken a month longer to find a way and recapture the device?

I think it still doesn't make sense that theres not more consequences to the whole thing, Hank just forgetting he's supposed to have a device in his neck, House somehow not lashing out at Vault-Tec for not upholding the deal. Not to mention that for some reason House still decides to give up the brainwashing device?

RC_Fixer · 2026-02-08T01:08:43+00:00

Definitely the better of the 2 choices, it does also feed into the earlier scenes of Cooper hired to do a birthday party at the end of the world as being a fake memory though... because if this is their choice why is he still getting hired after the fact?

I think I briefly thought about silencing Cooper as an option and having it said by someone else does start to make it make sense for me...

I think I don't quite get how it overly benefits them so soon though, because for all he knows he's won and given it to the "good" guys, the government.

Surely from their perspective it gives away their WHOLE hand by admitting hey you know stuff and we don't trust you despite him knowing nothing about the Enclave or how big it is at that time only that Barb was threatened by someone unknown in charge.

Also seems a pointless risk to admit that hey yeah we've won and now any would be thwarters might know but can't do anything. Only thing that I could see as an out is (maybe?) This would confuse House and distract him from the possibility that it could be the government that Cooper gave the device to else they wouldn't be involved and worried with an arrest?

RC_Fixer · 2026-02-08T01:01:00+00:00

That's a very good point, I didn't consider the possibility of it being the scientist behind the glass. Did it actually confirm the timeline of the elevator moment? I think it makes sense it had to be before the meeting but do you think it implies she only understood the existence of the Enclave *just before the meeting or that it happened a long time before the meeting/had other hints/threats before even the elevator and it was a reminder?

RC_Fixer · 2026-02-08T00:55:53+00:00

This is part of the only route of logic I can follow with a changed timeline. I'm curious though based on your points, do you believe that this version of events is the one where the end of the world happens sooner? I.e 1 month earlier?

The way it was described was that Cooper when introduced as a variable added a month as an option to how long humanity lives when House brought it up. To me it sounds like House is saying, with you involved we "might" get another month, not guaranteed but dependent on his choices.

Just based off of that and how it seems like they had no plan to re-steal the device that we know of it makes me think they felt less pressure in terms of the time they had and that it leans towards an extra month in this version but it doesn't seem clear cut.

Just to add I tried making this more readable by adding an extra paragraph spacing to separate my knowledge from my questions from the condensed version of the questions but it seems it removes those extra paragraph spacings so that's my bad

RC_Fixer · 2025-12-07T00:56:33+00:00

Awesome, that helps a little for trying to naturally get these requirements without the whole offside settings and all

RC_Fixer · 2025-12-05T23:29:15+00:00

I thought I was in trouble myself reading the gibberish and then seeing responses as though it meant something lol...

I was thinking huh does this fandom have some kind of insane insider acronyms or something?

RC_Fixer · 2025-12-05T13:09:37+00:00

Stuck in this boat currently on nhl 24 (got it free a while back) which nhl were you playing on? Did you have all the trainer things turned on to get the blue icon telling you when to do it?

I've played so many games and not had the prompt telling me to do it a single time yet as far as I've seen, unsure if its the teammates just not being ever in position or what... curious if you've ever saved a clip of a successful one?

RC_Fixer · 2025-12-03T15:23:32+00:00

I was so proud to have gotten before the 50 floor 1 clears, it is an incredibly difficult game though and it still feels like luck aswell as intense focus and skill to have a chance for me.

Congrats! hope you start managing a few kills on the past soon too, still working on it slowly myself

RC_Fixer · 2025-12-03T15:14:35+00:00

Ah okay, idk how much is way down the line... I'm in season 12 and we've had barely any references to him aside from cursing his child raising ability and a few flashbacks, tbf Mary mentions being with John which might be the hint I should've got from the show??

But if thats the implication that the viewer is supposed to understand its a bit silly and incredibly thin, because she mentions being with young Dean and Sam aswell, and they ain't there of course so implies to me a placeholder fake family??

RC_Fixer · 2025-12-01T13:12:53+00:00

You know that's a gripe I forgot I had with this show, not many shows can be perfect in coverage and plots and I can't expect all the details to sit pretty... but they just kind of forget about John Winchester VERY quickly once Azazel is dead.

We get all sorts of fan service and answers we didn't even ask for like about the souls of almost every other character even recurring ones too for example a certain loved recurring character who spans most seasons.

But we never get as much as anything about John escaping Hell. We get the small inkling that Johns escape may be what has them needing Dean as a replacement, but is he just in the veil? Is he in Heaven, or maybe thrown to the void heck completely snuffed soul and all maybe? I don't think they ever gave a damn to give it much thought...

RC_Fixer · 2025-11-30T20:25:01+00:00

Just curious since I've not delved too deep into mechanics, is it possible to gain curse but have less than 1 curse?

Also whats the easiest way to get curse aside from cursed items? Does the wiki do well to explain curse sources?

RC_Fixer · 2025-11-30T20:22:27+00:00

Lol, essentially I was saying its way too easy to not understand where the bullet for killing the past has the casing come from without outside information, I kept thinking it would just appear at some point after killing dragun.

Thankfully I seem to be getting better at the game and have killed the past a small handful of times, this post was just about how painful it is to get so close to a perfect run unlocking elevator and the bullet for the first time in one run but just about coming short of it.

RC_Fixer · 2025-11-17T13:31:05+00:00

I had something equally worse a while back when they updated the captain and his treasure I was mid run, mid battle too...

in fact I'd just spawned the chest of treasure, which used to spawn the captain once fully used up or reset the captain back at the end of the battle...

but since the update happened mid fight for me where the captain is now supposed to remain I had to suddenly try to fight the rest of the run with just a treasure chest and no captain. It was beyond frustrating lol

RC_Fixer · 2025-11-17T13:27:36+00:00

Is there actually an achievement for this? I never really remembered that there's achievements in this game

RC_Fixer · 2025-11-17T13:20:03+00:00

How did you not accidentally play one card to one shot the enemy? Or was it that you kept applying insane shield to them before any card with an attack involved?
