No matter how good a game is, nothing can really replace a game like OneShot, there's probably overlap between being too close to it or not enough like it to do so, whereas the ending had the kind of finality that would make even a sequel difficult. The game probably said it best to Niko: "...You did good, you saved the world..." "Are you not happy?"
... Its over... Its done... Nothing is left, I've seen it all, go home, save the sun... And the truth. Nothing more for me to see... No more Easter eggs... I've seen it all... But still... No Niko... Thank *you.*
It’s been done Niko’s gone home We only had one shot What will come next Maybe they will tell their friends and family about this journey We-ll We’ll just h-ave: t(o -wäî/t á-ñd śę-ê-ë-è-ē- -message corrupted-
@@Sapphire158 The equinox program was almost done properly, but the world machine's obsession with the original Niko was not cannon, and it influenced the story enough to where it lost potential
@@ram4771 Same. The ending was perfect and there is no need for more, but even so I want to know how Niko is doing. The wheat fields, the pancakes, the village, I want to experience it.
So here i am, sitting after 4 years after this games release, crying over a video game, i want to experience it once again, but if i do, i will never stop, this game is sooo good. This brings back real nostalgia. Niko is my fav boio 4ever
I wish i could of played this for my family's cat before he passed, but sincerely...Thank you, Mick for everything. You've always been there for me when i was down or upset. Always. Mick, my lil baby boy of fur, you are a true King Good Boy.
May you be away from here, Niko. But even if the journey was completed, you'll never be alone. Wherever you go, I'll be there. After all, that's what friends do. May there's nothing more to do both of us together, but I'll never be away. May this be a good bye, but I am sure there is no limit nor world that can separate us. When you need help, I'll be there. As I was doing all the time. In the end, we did the right choice. We heard them, even with the light again there was little to do... in an almost withering world. Just remember. Killing is wrong but dying ain't too bad. And we chose together. I promised to return you back home. And so, I will. *extends hand near the wall* Come. Your mother is waiting.
Boy am I glad I can never forget this game :D (Note: I'm not kidding, I literally can't forget it and it's the best thing I could ask for, lucky me :P)
I wish I could meet a friend like this. Unfortunately the world is so self absorbed and busy chasing money and success that no one has time make a friendship like this. I feel so hollow inside
this game always makes me feel want to return to the first day i discovered this diamond, so i can feel all the insanely massive emotions this gem gave to me.
The end has come, the savior has gone No world left saving as what’s left burns As you watch your darkened screen flash you laugh as the child makes his way back To fields of yellow, light and wheat smiling, the world draws its final breath You had OneShot, and so you Shot it.
What? What do you mean I'm crying? I'm not cryi- you know what forget it. I am crying. This journey with niko was a once in a lifetime experience. But every good thing comes to an end. And so does OneShot. OneShot and Niko have changed my view of the world. Thanks Niko. I will never forget you. ever.
We all are waiting hopeless for Niko's comeback. We all know that won't happen. Wouldn't happen. But still...... Somewhere in our hearts...... ...... Feel a missing part. And we know well... It's a friend. That has cat ears and eyes. Doesn't admit it's a cat. That has good and cheerful behaviours and personality... We're the one. Who sended Niko to eternity. With our hands. Niko said Niko won't forget us. As like we do. And that moment. Niko broke the wall which Niko has been stuck in a while, and went into home...... We know well Niko can't come back with it's own. We have to wait for devs to bring Niko back. But we know.. this is impossible. All we can do is wait Niko with or without hope. *We should be one to thank you, Niko. Thank you for bringing us to your journey. Thank you for this valuable memory. Thank you for remembering us. Thank you for million times.* _Thank you for everything._ Thank you......
Dang, when I finished OneShot it hit me like a rock. It hurt a lot. All I can really say is... Thanks For Everything! Ngl I want this played at my funeral
I don't know if I made the right choice. I'll miss you, Niko. I'm glad I got to know you, even for the short time we did. Thank you. Edit: Even after Solstice, this still holds true. I won't ever forget you, Niko. I miss you.
Where girls cried: Titanic. Where boys cried: The spongebob episode “Dumped.” Where men cried: True Pacifist Ending. Where *true heroes* cried: *Oneshot ending(s)*
Thank you Niko. Just a bit of hope for us both, given to us via our friendship. I may have helped you but you helped me too. I'll keep going, buddy. I know you're doing the same thing.
Niko is agender. (The gender of Niko is up to the player) But for me Niko is more like a her... Because you know,long scarf,calling her mother "mama",that big coat... Again,it's up to the player to choose the gender. So if you want Niko to be a him,let Niko be a him. If somebody else wants Niko to be a her,let Niko be a her. Only because the fanbase says Niko is a he,that does *not* mean that Niko *has* to be a him.
I think I read on TV tropes that Niko is either a boy or a girl and that it's up to you. He's a boy in my mind but there isn't any canon info on that so everyone is allowed to have their own headcanons about his/her gender.
i miss niko.. but he and i still remember... he's safe with his mama eating pancakes. all is well. except, he isnt here anymore, only in memory. i think i can live with that
"once you've established a mental link with the world, you cannot break it unless the world is saved." so, perhaps niko didn't truly return home in this ending.
The way it just has you sit their as the world fades away when Niko goes home is kinda depressing. It'd be a bit more depressing if they showed the individuals, like the lamp guy, the cafe worker, the Glen kids. That'd break me.
Fun Fact: In an interview with the developers of this game, one of them said that this is her favorite song from it. NightMargin added that this one wouldn't have crossed her mind because it was a remix of the main theme she "made in 5 minutes". Really surprising, to be honest
I tried to figure out how to get to the solstice route, which ended up me playing a bunch of times, until I was eventually able to get to it, I've gotten to the part where you meet proto and he said that I've played the game multiple times, to which Niko got upset at me for it, it really made me feel extremely bad, I never wanted to hurt Niko at all, and yet I have without even knowing it. But... I'll miss Niko so much...
You know, this game is very much like Undertale. I don’t think I can explain it well, but I’ll try regardless. Spoilers, obviously. In Undertale, your existence gives others hope because the monsters can use you to be free. However, you can deprive people of hope and just murder everybody. In Oneshot, Niko’s existence gives others hope because you can probably save the world by returning the sun. However, you can destroy the sun and return home, depriving everyone of hope.
The game really is such a hit, it should have been that way, you really only had one shot. You had only one shot, and it should not be wasted with Niko returning home with his mom and the other world being restored too in peace and harmony. True resetting it, is just making it worser...
Well, from my perspective, this ending is actually a good ending. Instead of allowing the world to slowly rot away, you just ended it instantly and painlessly, giving everyone the feeling of eternal peace, which most of the creatures (idk if i can call them so) actually looked forward to, considering that for most of them, there were pretty much, no hope left. So, in a way, you did the good thing. p. s. plus niko went home & got pancakes p. p. s. stupid squares they've ruined everything
Sure thing! But... I've done every file that was sent to me when I bought the soundtrack. If you can link me to whatever song you're talking about then I'll definitely upload it
came late to this, but to say, this game is super well made, hard work was put in, and one of my favorite games, if not, my favorite. In all ways, I can say to others, I will re-experience this game as many times as I want. It feels new and better everytime I play it, it confuses me from how it is like other games. I don't know if I am addicted to this game or not, but all I know is how to reset my save and play solstice again, instead of just seeing world machine instead of Niko, it shows Niko, and its not the 2 neutral options of end the world or save it. Though I can't get the fact out of my head that this game needs a sequel, maybe a new character, and maybe a new world. Like undertale going to deltarune. I want an alternative ending. Something else needs to happen. World machine edition is what I want as the tip of the iceberg. If the owner of OneShot sees this, maybe make a sequel? please? I would love to see new gameplay and a new take of this game. editing here: I hope everybody oneday comes across their old computer, and find this game, forgetting what it is, and re-experience it. But, that's impossible I would think, this game can't be forgotten by anybody, its too good to be forgotten.
No Niko... Thank *_you._*

You know, this game is very much like Undertale. I don’t think I can explain it well, but I’ll try regardless.
Spoilers, obviously.
In Undertale, your existence gives others hope because the monsters can use you to be free. However, you can deprive people of hope and just murder everybody.
In Oneshot, Niko’s existence gives others hope because you can probably save the world by returning the sun. However, you can destroy the sun and return home, depriving everyone of hope.
except oneshot came first (if you don't know, the original version was made in 2014, the steam and itchio release are a remake)
I'm happy to help Niko, until we meet again
Do you guys think Niko remembers us?
I guess... I did the right thing.
Right?..
p. s. This whole thing sounds like a lullaby.
A lullaby for the entire world.
When I chose to end the world for Niko I felt actual guilt…
The game really is such a hit, it should have been that way, you really only had one shot. You had only one shot, and it should not be wasted with Niko returning home with his mom and the other world being restored too in peace and harmony. True resetting it, is just making it worser...
Thanks Niko
I Love this game
oh fuck-
Well, from my perspective, this ending is actually a good ending. Instead of allowing the world to slowly rot away, you just ended it instantly and painlessly, giving everyone the feeling of eternal peace, which most of the creatures (idk if i can call them so) actually looked forward to, considering that for most of them, there were pretty much, no hope left. So, in a way, you did the good thing.
p. s. plus niko went home & got pancakes
p. p. s. stupid squares they've ruined everything
At least the instant death of the world is something that pc in the begging said, idk if it's true or not, but i suppose it is.
unholy contortions of agony
Niko is not gone. See niko again?
Yes<
No
Ok then.
Get a console and play the world machine
Good Ending: Niko returns home, grows up, becomes a programmer and rebuilds The World.
NO! thank you :)
Probably my favourite on, and right after on little cats feet :D
Are there any other games out there like this? I know of Undertale, DDLC, Dead City, and Alter Ego already. There has to be more out there.
Sadly, I don’t think there is. Nothing can quite make me feel the same. It’s over.
You have OneShot.
@@quest7314 I just found one today. It's much smaller, but definitely worth playing. It's called "a pet shop after dark".
Try the mother franchise . It has 3 games and you can start with any of them cuz each one of em has a separate story

think you can do the extended version of the piano version of this song?
