10:50 the beans thing is a reference to "Invasion of the Bodysnatchers" A sci-fi movie where aliens made copies of people then abducted the originals. the copies.. were created in things that look like giant pea pods.
Someone might have already said this, but I'm 99.9% sure that the "green figure in the water" in Stardew Valley is a Kappa, a little green water dwelling creature that's been in the other games as an Easter egg (you can even romance it in one game).
As someone who’s played stardew casually and somehow got lucky enough to the capsule.. it’s a little scary knowing that somehow I’ve MISSED that shadow thing. Might have to hop on later and look around a bit
The Choro Q Mystery seems to be heavily referencing Invasion of The Body Snatchers, where alien pods land on earth that slowly grow into clones of humans that kill and replace the original. This one definitely seems a little tongue-in-cheek by depicting the pods as a Soybean pod. This means that if you don't believe Rosspury he's replaced by his alien clone 😰
When I first started watching Oddheader some years ago, it gave me an uneasy feeling that I no longer gets from horror youtubers. Still, Oddheader is kind of much freakier. Unsolved mysteries just triggers something in me.
These videos somehow remind me a little bit of those GTASA bigfoot hunting mystery videos from back in the day, lol. But obviously these are a lot more professional. Always loved the nostalgia tho :)
This video is why I prefer OddHeader over every other Easteregg Channel out there. It's well researched, exciting, offers insights and doesn't do an outlandish guessing game on every easter egg they come across.
Have you ever seen "FunWithGuru"? I love that channel too! He is a great youtuber. No unnecessary commentary, just Easter eggs and background relaxing music :D
Aliens are so perfect as an easter egg in a game. So closely associated with conspiracy and mystery, they grab the players' interest without fail. Definetly applies to me at least :D
Helicobuctur pirori sounds a lot like Helicobacter Pylori which is a type of infection. Maybe something to that? And the seed pod with a clone coming out could be a reference to pod people from invasion of the body snatchers?
Totally believable considering it's a Japanese game and those would most likely totally be both written the same in Japanese. Could be a translation error or something.
Alan Wake was originally going to be open world but got scaled back massively, however much of the open world didn’t get axed, so what you’re showing here could be remnants of content from what they wanted to make!
There was a beta-dlc or something, maybe playable maybe just footage...I can't recall. Either way it ended with a massive flying saucer. I think all the ufo stuff was Easter eggs for a scrapped sequel idea.
For part of the Alan Wake mystery, we learn in game that Danny was actually "Taken" by the Dark Prescence, not replaced by space aliens. Later in the game we fight Danny as a mini-boss. You can hear Walter just before the fight confirm that the Taken is, in-fact, the same Danny mentioned before
The ChoroQ easter egg is a reference to Invasion of the Body Snatchers, where so-called "pod people" emerge from alien plant pods (i.e. a pea pod) looking just like other human beings, who they promptly replace and imitate. Spooky!
There was a Looney Tunes episode that parodied that movie, and I'm pretty sure I was traumatized by it. idk why but that scared me more than anything else as a kid lol
@@captaindapper5020 That always freaked me out, too! When I saw the 70s version of Invasion of the Body Snatchers that it’s based on it gave me the same creeps. They did a good job on that cartoon.
Does anyone know if that one is actually legit? It sounds like someone tricked this guy with a fake Easter egg, at first glance. Even if those assets do exist, it's probably just a morbid joke from someone involved with the game.
With the stardew one there is actually a bit more to it that the community does know! First off the mural at the volcano actual depicts the Dwarf race arriving on earth, as they are called The Sky People, and have stories of a massive cataclysm that sent them hurtling deep into the earth. The Dwarves were also significantly more technologically advanced than they are as we see them in the game, represented by the ancient Dwarven computers you can dig up. Though the Dwarves we're able to talk to don't mention growing in tubes, and the shadowy figure doesn't look like the silhouette of any dwarf shown in the game so its likely they are different species of aliens. But aliens have been an established part of the stardew valley lore for awhile, even if we don't know a whole lot about them
personally, the silhouette reminds me of the weird statues you can get from giving specific items to specific boxes. Especially ??Foroguemon??, or ??Pinky Lemon?? minus the heart antennae it has.
Not only the Artifacts exist, pointing to advanced technology (Computer, Helm) but some of the best weapons in the game receive the name Dwarven and are found inside the Volcano Dungeon!
People Playground has an INSANE amount of lore and secrets in it, It sadly doesn't get the attention it deserves though as the community is more focused on "haha funny gore sandbox game" and most other people don't even know it exists.
The pea pods are probably a reference to "invasion of the body snatchers" , where there's an invading alien race that aims to replace every single human being with an exact lookalike, which spawn from pea-pod like sacks.
The SH4 UFO ending was cut. The assets are still in the game files, but there is no code associated with them. It's TCRF material at this point. Rodolfo Nuñez has made that much clear in past videos as have other SH4 hackers/modders. You can find another one of the channeling stones still visible in the game in the back room once you've broken a hole in the wall with the Pickaxe of Hope. It's just laying on the ground. Can't be interacted with. But it's there.
@@streemerz1 If I'm not mistaken, Rodolfo himself had a vid on it some time back. But there were other modders who have looked. It's not like I bookmarked their posts for the day I'd be pop quizzed on it, so I can't link you directly. Sorry. I'd just suggest looking around. It's a fairly well known bit of trivia in the SH community. Unfortunately, SH4 modding isn't really very big. Everyone is heavily focused on SH2. I'm hoping SH4 modding comes along someday. There's tons of cool things that could be done with it the same way the SH2 Enhance Edition does for SH2.
It’s important to note with Stardew Valley that the ingame lore has aliens as well. There are “dwarves” in the game, who call themselves “the sky people” and landed on the planet an unknown number of years ago. The in game Shadow People (not the weird figure in this video) fought a war with them due to their sudden appearance on the planet and a fight for resources and space.
The Alan Wake/Control world is interesting because it's very obvious that there are multiple supernatural things that are actually unrelated to each other.
In the AWE expansion, you can find an alien, but he's seemingly been locked up in there for decades. It's doubtful he had anything to do with, but there are canonically aliens in the series. Since they're a shared universe, the question now is of the chicken and egg variety. Which came first, alien contact of some kind which introduced the AWEs or did the AWEs bring the aliens.
Considering there's forces at work in that universe far more powerful and dangerous than aliens, I'd say the aliens are as much at their mercy as everyone else is.
Thank you for this. Most content creators abuse of the same easter eggs over and over, making difficult to see something actually new. Definitely not you. What a fantastic compilation and editing.
The Choro Q stuff is likely a reference to the movie Invasion of the Body Snatchers. In the movie aliens come to Earth and begin replacing the inhabitants with dopplegangers grown in fleshy pods, which the protagonists refer to as Pod People. In Choro Q, an exact replica of Rosspury emerges from a giant pea pod, making the duplicate a Pod Person (or Pod Car I guess).
I’ve been fascinated with Easter eggs and secrets in video games since I was young. I’ve seen so many Easter Eggs and secrets I started running out of things to see. I kept watching the same ones over and over, until I discovered oddheader. He never makes the same videos as other Easter egg and secret hunters. Watching him I’ve learned about so many things that other creators never showed. Dude is great at what he does and that brings me back every time knowing I’m gonna see something new.
The drunk guy in Alan Wake talking about Danny being a "space alien" is actually alluding to the fact that the people in Bright Falls are being possessed (or "Taken") by the Dark Presence. When this happens, the person is basically dead and their body becomes little more than a puppet filled with darkness. Obviously, Walter didn't understand this and chalked it up to aliens; but you do fight the Taken Danny later in the game, which confirms his story.
It's worth noting that SH4 wasn't originally meant to be a Silent Hill game at all but rather a different, unique horror game simply called The Room that, while set in the same universe, would have no important connections to the story of Silent Hill beyond maybe a few easter eggs. It only had the Silent Hill name slapped onto it along with some hasty connections to the Order because the higher-ups were worried it wouldn't sell otherwise. With that in mind and considering the point you made about the scrapped item descriptions being in English even though localization isn't normally done until late in a game's development, I'm guessing that the game wasn't originally going to have a UFO ending because that's a Silent Hill tradition, not a The Room tradition, then when it was forced to become a Silent Hill game late in development they started trying to implement one, and finally it was hastily scrapped anyway because they couldn't finish putting it together before the deadline. It doesn't explain everything, but it's food for thought.
How the fuck does this still get thrown around? This is not true and has been debunked by developers. Do you have any source for saying that all the Silent Hill connections were added later?
I heard that's just a rumour because the development code name was simply "The Room" but that it was developed as a Silent Hill game from day 1. Also some games have localization happen alongside the original writing to make sure both are very similar. There also is the case that some Japanese companies sometimes release games in America first. I believe at the time SH4 came out Mario & Luigi and a Sonic game or two have done it, plus maybe some smaller names.
That's a misconception around the internet one of the developers outright said in an interview that The room was always a silent hill game. Tsuboyama: We wanted to make a sequel after Silent Hill 3 and you could say that was the initial concept, but upon that we needed to implement a lot of new flavour to the sequel, otherwise it would have been the same old Silent Hill. So for that, we created "The Room" as the concept for the game, so that we could use to represent the contrast between the normal and the abnormal life which changes suddenly. For the scenario we got our general influence from a book called Coin Locker Babies, which was written by a Japanese writer called Ryu Murakami. It talks about a baby abandoned in a coin locker. That was the general background.
in Yakuza 6 when you beat the game an item called "ufo detecter" becomes avalible at the pawn shop, when you buy it and equip it UFO's can be seen at multiple places in both cities with no use or explanation.
Im assuming the peapod thing in ChoroQ is just a cheeky reference to "Invasion of the Body Snatchers", which had Pods in it that cloned people to replace them with aliens. The toilet thing in Silent Hill 4 may just be a joke reference to Silent Hill 2, where James had to fish a wallet out of an extremely gross toilet.
Such a huge fan of your videos! Had a question though, how long does it take for someone who submitted something to you for it to work it's way into a video? Probably varies heavily depending on topic. Thanks alot!
I've mentioned one ufo related one or two years ago and he said he'd put in the alien special video, which I was guessing he forgot or scrapped, but here's the video. The one I've mentioned isn't here tho... I guess that if it's something big and/or complex, he'll feature fast, as it's more interesting
It depends on the genre and how many others fit since he does usually 10 mysteries at once, so if you have one about a topic that's obscure it'll probably be a while. It also depends on how well documented it is that can be researched
There are UA-cam Videos I'm watching while going to sleep or while I'm working. And there are UA-cam Videos like yours that I'm watching on a big screen, without distractions and some snacks. Thanks for the great entertainment!
I had a really fun Stardew Experience of not checking one distant corner of my farm for like two weeks and then just walking over to it at the start of a new spring to clear all the like rocks and branches and seeing an empty capsule right next to an owl statue.
Hunting Unlimited 3. This triggered an old memory from way back in my childhood that could possibly be the reason for its existence. This possibly clues to an "alien movie" easter egg. I do not remember the name but I remember this scene very vividly. The alien approaches one of the characters houses, and sticks his fingers underneath the front door frame. The character then uses an axe he was holding, and chops off the aliens fingers. I remember it as well because it was also in a robot chicken parody skit they made one time. So that's my theory, and if someone could tell me if they know the movie I'm talking about, then let me know!
It's crazy how the first and only time I ever really played stardew valley I experienced both the capsule and the showed figue both in one sitting with the showed figure happening multiple times in one night
In the days before the 1.5 update of Stardew Valley, the Strange Capsule and Stone Owl (which did and still do share the same spawn conditions) were so rare that the few people who knew about them weren't even sure they really existed in the game or if they were unused assets. I seem to recall ConcernedApe saying either on Twitter or in the 1.5 patch notes that this was because of a mistake in the code that made their spawn conditions next to impossible to fulfill. The 1.5 update fixed the mistake and restored their spawn conditions to what they were supposed to be all along. They're still rare, but nowhere near as infamously rare as they used to be.
14:25 American translator Jeremy Blaustein worked closely with Team Silent throughout the series to ensure that the story and characters resonated with western audiences. He also wrote the English script and assisted with the voice acting. His contribution has often been forgotten, but it's thanks to his support that Silent Hill has retained a cult following. So Im not surprised there is English in the game, they most likely co-wrote the script in both English and Japanese. I doubt Silent Hill 2-4 even has Japanese voice acting. I imagine the Japanese version has subtitles. The toilet is just a reference to show different Henry is from James in Silent Hill 2.
Probably useless note on the Strange Capsule event in Stardew Valley but it wasn’t actually made more common more that originally the capsule was bugged, normally events of that type (that spawn objects) work where after the event triggers it scans around 100 tiles on the farm and places the object on a random clear tile however the Strange Capsule event was bugged where it would instead require every random tile it scanned to be clear (which was typically not possible due to the game also potentially scanning water, the player’s house or other tiles that are impossible to clear) so it’s still the same chance in 1.5 but they fixed it so it works like any other item spawning event (and was probably not fixed till 1.5 due to ConcernedApe only adding more to the event in that update) Also on the “our ancestors came from the sky” line the lore in Stardew would more likely imply thats related to the Dwarfs as they’re canonically aliens who crash landed on earth in ancient times
I played hunting unlimited 3 when I was a kid a ton and I completely forgot till now but there is 100% a UFO lodged into the ground in one of the maps. I am certain of it, I vividly remember finding it and walking around on it as a kid
For people playground, the alien-like sounds in hybrid are still in-game (named c.ogg) but the radius and volume has been lowered a fair bit, as for the end-result. yeah It's still not solved and we'd very much like if people would help us out on trying to figure it out!
The Beanpod from that car game is likely a play on the "pod" people from Invasion of the Body Snatchers, where the aliens steal humans and replace them with identical duplicates, which are grown in pods.
Silent Hill 4 released in Japan with English language options and voiceovers and everything, you could import it and get the same experience as the US version (I did to play it 3 months before release). From working with localization teams on games myself, most likely the spreadsheet contains a raw dump of all the sentences, items, etc. that are translated en masse which winds up including cut content.
The toy car was modeled after "penny racers" and the pea ie pod is obviously a nod to Invasion Of The Body Snatchers with pod people clones that take over. I recommend the version with Leonard Nimoy, Jeff Goldblum, and Donald Sutherland because its has a wide cast and has a cute little alien hobo dog 😏
I didn't expect it but I'm very glad see more stuff relating to people playground secrets, due to it being very interesting to find out about them as a player of the game myself, along with the secrets intriguing me to learn more about them.
3:54 The severed fingers may be something to do with using a bow?, in mideval england once a archer was captured they used to chop the 2 fingers off so they couldnt use a bow, they used to taunt enemies giving them the outward v in defiance (its a rude gesture nowadays in uk)
The beans aren't "green beans" but rather Japanese "edamame", or "soya beans". Perhaps it's a reference to the "pod people" from "The Body Snatchers", as beans are in pods, just as the invasive plants in that film are. The plant aliens also attached to, absorbed and replaced their human hosts in that film too.
Is the End_result file supposed to be an image? I know that you can change the extension on a file and it gets converted so maybe it’s an image that converted to a .txt file
The Stardew Valley one is unlikely to get an update since CA is hard at work on his next game and, to the best of my knowledge, doesn't plan on doing anything besides minor bug fixes for Stardew anymore.
There is a Stardew update 1.6 coming out soon, although apparently it's going to be primarily focused on improving mod support. Still, it might have something relevant to this mystery.
Pls make a video on just mobile games... there's ways to access the files through certain apps interestingly enough some mobile game files u can access and change in the old Google games store not to be confused with the Google play store.... also I would like to see a video of u doing a deep dive into super Mario's parents. I know it's not ur style but saw someone else do dat and it was so interesting I like to watch it again but I'd rather watch u! Also in fnaf:SC there is something danTDM discovered, when u play there r different types of level security badges u can get and they open that level door. However, there are level 10 doors around the map but no way to get to level 10 security. So dantdm installed a hack that allowed him level 10 security but when he went through the door he fell through the map... but what Dan didn't notice was something in the background as he was falling... it was pretty hard to see. I would understand if u can't find it. Y DO THIS COMMENT KEEP GETTING DELETED!
Unless but interesting fact about that car PG. The toys are what G1 Bumble Bee turns into. The toy he was based on oringaly was meant to be a tiny robot that turns into a toy car, rather than a full scale VW beetle that turns into a big robot.
Remember that Alan Wake was originally supposed to be an open world game but got turned into a level based one later on in development because they didn't have the money to finish it, so that might be content that originally _was_ supposed to be seen.
So am I hearing things or is this an error? At 0:50 he's summarizing Stardew Valley, and then says "which has sold over 29 copies since it's release in 2016." And just like.... yeah, it better have sold well over 29 copies, lol. It's been 6 years since it's release. If you can't sell 29 individual copies, I think the game failed.
I never knew about the stardew valley stuff! I only knew that if you click on the 'E' on the main screen enough the door would open and a little green alien would wave from it, or something like that. It's been a while since I played lol

Holy shit the Stardew Valley one reminded me of how much the "shadow figures" scared me my first time seeing them. Glad to know I wasn't crazy
That sounds so terrifying tbh I'd scream
My first thought is Krobus but I don’t recall them having arms
I had the owl statue show up in my game and I just assumed it was normal so I forgot about it until now and I think I deleted that save...🤦♀️

Helicobuctur pirori sounds a lot like Helicobacter Pylori which is a type of infection. Maybe something to that? And the seed pod with a clone coming out could be a reference to pod people from invasion of the body snatchers?
Wonder if there's some sort of special meaning to that. 🤔
Totally believable considering it's a Japanese game and those would most likely totally be both written the same in Japanese. Could be a translation error or something.
Helicobacter Pylori is the virus that causes stomach ulcers.
probably a japanese pun that didn't get translated well given the game already seems kind of low-budget

Nothing to do with the video, but I love your profile pic. Okami is so underrated!!

Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1956) is the reference you are looking for.
Thank you. Can't believe this was missed.

The drunk guy in Alan Wake talking about Danny being a "space alien" is actually alluding to the fact that the people in Bright Falls are being possessed (or "Taken") by the Dark Presence. When this happens, the person is basically dead and their body becomes little more than a puppet filled with darkness. Obviously, Walter didn't understand this and chalked it up to aliens; but you do fight the Taken Danny later in the game, which confirms his story.
I actually was lucky enough to have a alien capsule and owl statue spawn on my farm in Stardew Valley
Me too actually..lol..and that pink meteor thing or w.e.
I tought it happen to everyone lol
I dont think it's that rare
@@ghostoflazlo afaik they made both much more common, they used to be WAY rarer
Dang you're one lucky individual!
Has anyone tried containing the creature? For example, keeping the pod indoors, blocking the door with furniture, then sleeping the required 3 days?
It's worth noting that SH4 wasn't originally meant to be a Silent Hill game at all but rather a different, unique horror game simply called The Room that, while set in the same universe, would have no important connections to the story of Silent Hill beyond maybe a few easter eggs. It only had the Silent Hill name slapped onto it along with some hasty connections to the Order because the higher-ups were worried it wouldn't sell otherwise. With that in mind and considering the point you made about the scrapped item descriptions being in English even though localization isn't normally done until late in a game's development, I'm guessing that the game wasn't originally going to have a UFO ending because that's a Silent Hill tradition, not a The Room tradition, then when it was forced to become a Silent Hill game late in development they started trying to implement one, and finally it was hastily scrapped anyway because they couldn't finish putting it together before the deadline. It doesn't explain everything, but it's food for thought.
Nope
How the fuck does this still get thrown around? This is not true and has been debunked by developers. Do you have any source for saying that all the Silent Hill connections were added later?
I heard that's just a rumour because the development code name was simply "The Room" but that it was developed as a Silent Hill game from day 1.
Also some games have localization happen alongside the original writing to make sure both are very similar. There also is the case that some Japanese companies sometimes release games in America first.
I believe at the time SH4 came out Mario & Luigi and a Sonic game or two have done it, plus maybe some smaller names.
That's a misconception around the internet one of the developers outright said in an interview that The room was always a silent hill game.
Tsuboyama: We wanted to make a sequel after Silent Hill 3 and you could say that was the initial concept, but upon that we needed to implement a lot of new flavour to the sequel, otherwise it would have been the same old Silent Hill. So for that, we created "The Room" as the concept for the game, so that we could use to represent the contrast between the normal and the abnormal life which changes suddenly. For the scenario we got our general influence from a book called Coin Locker Babies, which was written by a Japanese writer called Ryu Murakami. It talks about a baby abandoned in a coin locker. That was the general background.
I'm pretty sure I've heard this myth positively debunked by someone, it was always going to be Silent Hill 4
in Yakuza 6 when you beat the game an item called "ufo detecter" becomes avalible at the pawn shop, when you buy it and equip it UFO's can be seen at multiple places in both cities with no use or explanation.
I love UFOs and I love when devs put alien Easter eggs in games. This is just a video of all my favorite things. Thanks oddhead! You are awesome!
2:50 yo Lil broomstick is a gamer now?? Wasn't he broke asf?
I fail to see how being broke and being a gamer are mutually exclusive options
Bro started gaming to make money, we prolly gon see his twitch channel soon
He needed some dough.
bot
maybe he did sold an NFT
Im assuming the peapod thing in ChoroQ is just a cheeky reference to "Invasion of the Body Snatchers", which had Pods in it that cloned people to replace them with aliens. The toilet thing in Silent Hill 4 may just be a joke reference to Silent Hill 2, where James had to fish a wallet out of an extremely gross toilet.
Don't know why but out of all of Odd's tracks, this one suits the more mysterious videos so well.
The green bean is a nod to pod people, and Invasion of the Body Snatchers, where aliens replace humans with identical copies grown in pods.
Such a huge fan of your videos! Had a question though, how long does it take for someone who submitted something to you for it to work it's way into a video? Probably varies heavily depending on topic. Thanks alot!
more likely to get a response on his discord
I've mentioned one ufo related one or two years ago and he said he'd put in the alien special video, which I was guessing he forgot or scrapped, but here's the video. The one I've mentioned isn't here tho... I guess that if it's something big and/or complex, he'll feature fast, as it's more interesting
It depends on the genre and how many others fit since he does usually 10 mysteries at once, so if you have one about a topic that's obscure it'll probably be a while. It also depends on how well documented it is that can be researched
There are UA-cam Videos I'm watching while going to sleep or while I'm working. And there are UA-cam Videos like yours that I'm watching on a big screen, without distractions and some snacks. Thanks for the great entertainment!
Thanks Odd! This is exactly what I needed!!! Awesome video! Thanks for not having jump scares, UFO stuff always has me on edge lol.
You know it's a good day when the oddheader uploads, love the easter egg content
I had a really fun Stardew Experience of not checking one distant corner of my farm for like two weeks and then just walking over to it at the start of a new spring to clear all the like rocks and branches and seeing an empty capsule right next to an owl statue.
That would make a nice plot twist. A hunting game where you as a hunter end up being hunted by aliens.
Hunting Unlimited 3. This triggered an old memory from way back in my childhood that could possibly be the reason for its existence.
This possibly clues to an "alien movie" easter egg. I do not remember the name but I remember this scene very vividly. The alien approaches one of the characters houses, and sticks his fingers underneath the front door frame. The character then uses an axe he was holding, and chops off the aliens fingers. I remember it as well because it was also in a robot chicken parody skit they made one time. So that's my theory, and if someone could tell me if they know the movie I'm talking about, then let me know!
The movie you are recalling is Signs. That is actually a great reference and sounds accurate.
It's crazy how the first and only time I ever really played stardew valley I experienced both the capsule and the showed figue both in one sitting with the showed figure happening multiple times in one night
The farmer being a Lamborghini is a funny reference to the fact that they used to make tractors and other farm equipment
In the days before the 1.5 update of Stardew Valley, the Strange Capsule and Stone Owl (which did and still do share the same spawn conditions) were so rare that the few people who knew about them weren't even sure they really existed in the game or if they were unused assets. I seem to recall ConcernedApe saying either on Twitter or in the 1.5 patch notes that this was because of a mistake in the code that made their spawn conditions next to impossible to fulfill. The 1.5 update fixed the mistake and restored their spawn conditions to what they were supposed to be all along. They're still rare, but nowhere near as infamously rare as they used to be.
I saw that kobayashi moru line on the wall, nice reference 0:07
Dude that alien ship setup you put into your video looks so well made and fun :)
14:25 American translator Jeremy Blaustein worked closely with Team Silent throughout the series to ensure that the story and characters resonated with western audiences. He also wrote the English script and assisted with the voice acting. His contribution has often been forgotten, but it's thanks to his support that Silent Hill has retained a cult following. So Im not surprised there is English in the game, they most likely co-wrote the script in both English and Japanese. I doubt Silent Hill 2-4 even has Japanese voice acting. I imagine the Japanese version has subtitles. The toilet is just a reference to show different Henry is from James in Silent Hill 2.
Probably useless note on the Strange Capsule event in Stardew Valley but it wasn’t actually made more common more that originally the capsule was bugged, normally events of that type (that spawn objects) work where after the event triggers it scans around 100 tiles on the farm and places the object on a random clear tile
however the Strange Capsule event was bugged where it would instead require every random tile it scanned to be clear (which was typically not possible due to the game also potentially scanning water, the player’s house or other tiles that are impossible to clear) so it’s still the same chance in 1.5 but they fixed it so it works like any other item spawning event (and was probably not fixed till 1.5 due to ConcernedApe only adding more to the event in that update)
Also on the “our ancestors came from the sky” line the lore in Stardew would more likely imply thats related to the Dwarfs as they’re canonically aliens who crash landed on earth in ancient times
The guy who submitted the hunted unlimited 3 one, I swear I was just in a round of tf2 with someone called young cash register. Weird
Mysterious aliens in video games have always fascinated me
I played hunting unlimited 3 when I was a kid a ton and I completely forgot till now but there is 100% a UFO lodged into the ground in one of the maps. I am certain of it, I vividly remember finding it and walking around on it as a kid
2:11 I love how an Oddheader is vibing by the bus stop in the left corner
For people playground, the alien-like sounds in hybrid are still in-game (named c.ogg) but the radius and volume has been lowered a fair bit, as for the end-result. yeah It's still not solved and we'd very much like if people would help us out on trying to figure it out!
In FF8 there’s a rare encounter which is just a UFO using a tractor beam to carry away an Easter Island head
YEP here it is!
ua-cam.com/video/2hOhZxYVkLI/v-deo.html
@@eW91dHViZSBpcyBjZW5zb3JzaGlw I didn’t realize it carried other objects too!
The Beanpod from that car game is likely a play on the "pod" people from Invasion of the Body Snatchers, where the aliens steal humans and replace them with identical duplicates, which are grown in pods.
oh man the nostalgia those hunting unlimited 3 clips gave me. completely forgot about that game entirely
3:55
....Korone?
The "ODD HEAD" in the corn while talking about the capsule was a nice touch 👌
Silent Hill 4 released in Japan with English language options and voiceovers and everything, you could import it and get the same experience as the US version (I did to play it 3 months before release). From working with localization teams on games myself, most likely the spreadsheet contains a raw dump of all the sentences, items, etc. that are translated en masse which winds up including cut content.
A car-pg is something I never knew I needed
The toy car was modeled after "penny racers" and the pea ie pod is obviously a nod to Invasion Of The Body Snatchers with pod people clones that take over. I recommend the version with Leonard Nimoy, Jeff Goldblum, and Donald Sutherland because its has a wide cast and has a cute little alien hobo dog 😏
Doesn’t that one also have a nod you can see the protagonist from the orignal film shows up at the end yelling his famous “they’re here!” Line?
I didn't expect it but I'm very glad see more stuff relating to people playground secrets,
due to it being very interesting to find out about them as a player of the game myself,
along with the secrets intriguing me to learn more about them.
3:54 The severed fingers may be something to do with using a bow?, in mideval england once a archer was captured they used to chop the 2 fingers off so they couldnt use a bow, they used to taunt enemies giving them the outward v in defiance (its a rude gesture nowadays in uk)
0:48 he's using an axe to harvest fiber, everyone point and laugh
The beans aren't "green beans" but rather Japanese "edamame", or "soya beans". Perhaps it's a reference to the "pod people" from "The Body Snatchers", as beans are in pods, just as the invasive plants in that film are. The plant aliens also attached to, absorbed and replaced their human hosts in that film too.
Love how i always remember this channel after months and then after a couple days a new video comes out
"I'VE COME FROM URANUS"
Hearing Odd say “Yung Cash Register” is sorta jarring when you don’t hear the “AKA Lil Broomstick” afterwards.
I haven't watched any of your videos in 2 or 3 months. I searched your name a few hours ago. Watched your latest one before this. Now this. Noice
Woah, I didn't know Control and Alan Wake were in the same universe
Is the End_result file supposed to be an image?
I know that you can change the extension on a file and it gets converted so maybe it’s an image that converted to a .txt file
I feel like if it was as simple as that the mystery would have been resolved three days after it was discovered, at most.
Nope, it's a 108k character long base64 code but it decodes into garbage data, so it's likely using a cipher of sorts to make it more difficult.
The peapod is probably a reference to Invasion of The Body Snatchers and the "pod people" from the movie.
The Stardew Valley one is unlikely to get an update since CA is hard at work on his next game and, to the best of my knowledge, doesn't plan on doing anything besides minor bug fixes for Stardew anymore.
There is a Stardew update 1.6 coming out soon, although apparently it's going to be primarily focused on improving mod support. Still, it might have something relevant to this mystery.

always love it when you use that background music
Pls make a video on just mobile games... there's ways to access the files through certain apps interestingly enough some mobile game files u can access and change in the old Google games store not to be confused with the Google play store.... also I would like to see a video of u doing a deep dive into super Mario's parents. I know it's not ur style but saw someone else do dat and it was so interesting I like to watch it again but I'd rather watch u! Also in fnaf:SC there is something danTDM discovered, when u play there r different types of level security badges u can get and they open that level door. However, there are level 10 doors around the map but no way to get to level 10 security. So dantdm installed a hack that allowed him level 10 security but when he went through the door he fell through the map... but what Dan didn't notice was something in the background as he was falling... it was pretty hard to see. I would understand if u can't find it. Y DO THIS COMMENT KEEP GETTING DELETED!
In the game either judgement or lost judgement there is a side quest and at the end of that side quest there is an alien ship in the background
1st?
no
Yes
Seems like it
Half life 3 confirmed
actually you're the third half life game
Lol the oddheader at 2:11 is amazing
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Unless but interesting fact about that car PG.
The toys are what G1 Bumble Bee turns into. The toy he was based on oringaly was meant to be a tiny robot that turns into a toy car, rather than a full scale VW beetle that turns into a big robot.
Am I the only one that never thought in a Million Years Stardew Valley will show up in of his Videos?
I never expected to see ChoroQ covered on this channel, it's one of my favourite childhood games!
Odddddd
Remember that Alan Wake was originally supposed to be an open world game but got turned into a level based one later on in development because they didn't have the money to finish it, so that might be content that originally _was_ supposed to be seen.
So am I hearing things or is this an error? At 0:50 he's summarizing Stardew Valley, and then says "which has sold over 29 copies since it's release in 2016."
And just like.... yeah, it better have sold well over 29 copies, lol. It's been 6 years since it's release. If you can't sell 29 individual copies, I think the game failed.
he says 20 million
If you open subtitles, it states 20 millions
But I also heard 29 too lol
Oddheader clearly says 20 million
He says 20 million, but kind of mumbles the million part so it sounds a bit like 9
I never knew about the stardew valley stuff! I only knew that if you click on the 'E' on the main screen enough the door would open and a little green alien would wave from it, or something like that. It's been a while since I played lol
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
I pressed "Translate to English" and it added three more As.
That Choro-Q one definitely feels like it came straight from a creepypasta.
beans come from pods, bodysnatchers come from pods, "invasion of the pod people", it 100% makes sense.
The oddheader figure at 2:11 nice detail
4:14 I wasn't expecting to hear my name pop up lmao, thought I was hearing things
oddheader come back, we miss you
The peapod = Invasion of the Bodysnarchers, an alien sci-fi with "pod people" who replace you
Invasion of the Body Snatchers for your pea reference
I think the Choro Q mystery is a reference to Pod people, Bean pods.
The Choro Q games are phenomenal...I knew they would end up on this channel eventually :)
