Hi, coder of Strangeland here and part of Wormwood Studios (the dev studio behind Strangeland), so nice to see this video!! The asset was never implemented, it was just an idea to implement it. The idea was that it'd be triggered by typing L,S,D, but it didn't get implemented because it required recording new lines and we were too close to release!
This is one of those times where scrolling TH-cam comments is actually rad as hell. I'd never heard of Strangeland before this video but I'm absolutely in love with it visually and I'm about to look into playing it for the first time right now!
Let’s get this boosted!
Thats such a cool idea lol shame it was scrapped
Question, though: can't you guys just add it in with a patch? I know it'd seem kinda pointless to do at this point, but I just want to know if you don't do it because it'd be too much work or you just don't think it's worth for other reasons.
@@Dreadjaws Yeah, but there's reasons why it would never make it, that would take a long time to explain on a single comment. Let's say creative differences for now. That will do. The game is quite easy to patch even. Saves won't break no matter what.
Mortal Kombat has a rich, storied history of putting nonsense in the files for dataminers to obsess over.
@RealThomasFoolery”purple rain” also a prince reference
The biggest prank would be if pink Floyd was ACTUALLY in a mortal kombat
hey, if Ermac is anything to go by, then it's only a matter of time before it becomes real
I remember the original Mortal Kombat II having stuff like "Sal Divita Wins", implying that you could play as one of the motion capture actors, and "Tanya Wins", years before she was an actual character in the game. You could see that stuff alongside all the regular text in the game by loading the EXE file in a text editor.
the real joy is that mortal kombat also has a rich storied history of having real, functional stupid bullshit in the games as well. you literally have no idea until you play the games extensively and/or datamine the game. ermac is a special example in that he *was* bullshit and then got *made real* 2 games later
I love this channel so much. It holds that old youtube almost scrappy and authentic style to it, but always has fresh and new easter egg entries instead or recycling them every single top 10.
Truth
i really love this channel, wish they could upload more
who would've expected, the based man has based taste in TH-cam content.
RIGHTTTT
Bro you're right. Never really thought about it till I read this comment, but i immediately click on every one of these videos. This channel is great.
"Hey dude! You remember that time you went to the restroom 30 years ago? No? Of course not! Here's a video of it."
Seaman is a 9/10 risk level to say so many times
Remember, no plural.
lmao
they could’ve avoided the problem completely by just calling him ocean man.
@@drabulusdael9329 it's a Japanese game, called "Shiiman" in japan, so basically it was seaman there too. I don't think they knew of the other word in the first place.
@@germanelkapo1 i feel like some english speaking guy knew and just ran with it for fun
The “Floyd counter” in the files is definitely a callback to “Shawn attacks” and “kano transformations” which were other red herrings included on the audit screens in the early games’ arcade versions
Plus it's Pink Floyd, like the band
@@quinnwilson2215 I felt that was too obvious to have to point out
@quinnwilson2215 yeah, but Rain also turned out to be real, and he's a similar reference. Ermac, Rain, and Tanya all started out as red herrings but became real characters later, so there's a chance the same will happen with Floyd
Oddheader is the best at actually showing video clips directly relevant to what he’s talking about in video games. I’ve seen other channels do similar things, but they always have to use so much filler because they don’t put the actual time in to do it properly.
How lame
>There's a nude code in Chess
My brother in Christ, none of the Chess pieces are wearing clothes.
Picture of someone nude when you enter the code?
Amen, Brother 🙏🏽
😂
wrong! the king and queen have hats
@@TigirlakaLaserwolf6 well ofc. It wouldbt be regal of them to not have their hats 😆
Noita's eye glyphs remain unsolved.
Noita's everything remains unsolved. Are we really suprised though? Its Noita we are talking about here.
Been covered in a previous video iirc.
@@eugenekrabs141 That game is a puzzle hidden inside of mystery wrapped in an enigma
@@eugenekrabs141 Actually the eye glyphs and the cauldron are the only unsolved things in noita, and they may even be related.
Noita is a game that doesn't want it's secrets uncovered.
"On what formally was known as Twitter" I think that's what I'm gonna start calling it
Prince vibes
The website formally know as twitter.
I just call it TwiX now
@kevnerx
I call it xitter. X is pronounced as sh in portuguese.
@@childofcascadiaLOL
6:52 DEMVRS
Yeah, I got nothing either. It is interesting that the enemies could pull that kind of thing off, so perhaps there's more to do with the letters
It's the initials of some of the developers of diablo
@snowballeffect7812 probably this, should scour the names of the devs who worked on programming the ai for those enemies to see if any names match
Maybe it’s real arcane magic
Demers=DMT boost to magic and perception
Maybe (only uncnsr'd)"Darn Virus"?
5:47 I think that one about accidentally leaving the camera rig on was just a joke. I imagine the rig was probably very bulky and unlikely to be forgotten about.
unless it was rigged to a helmet, and he didn't bother taking the helmet off because he had to go badly. It's plausible.
@@ryonkarpierz1179honestly lol. I know I’d keep it on if I was busting to piss.
That "terminal" secret from Fallout 4 has never been found.
coulda sworn i heard an update on that where todd said it was found
it doesnt exist. he lied.
Howard lies.
You honestly don't get enough credit for these videos including those than contribute. Every video is entertaining because it's always something new instead of regurgitated lists from other TH-camrs. Massive props to you and Mrs Oddheader.
Then he sold out in his very next video. Sad.
@@Klied Eh I can just not watch that, it's more annoying having sponsored segments in videos but that's what Sponsor block is for.
@@KliedMan has to pay bills somehow 🤷♀️
13:15 just want to clarify, Magnus didn't accuse Hans of using a Vibrator. That was a joke made by some random twitch chatter in Chessbrah's stream, that somehow got picked up by the mainstream media.
To clarify further, Piers Morgan is a clown and you should probably assume anything he believes is at best questionable.
He's made an entire career out of making up lies about famous people who are more interesting and talented than him.
Some people might think there's more to this story when you credit the "mainstream media" with it, when really it was one famously untrustworthy dude from the tabloids.
If some random guy had said it, I'd be more inclined to believe it, but the source it's less trustworthy than something you'd read on the back of a public toilet door.
Yeah, its funny and memey but its actually crazy that that became one of the most well-known chess "stories" of all time and it was literally just a casual joke someone made.
wasn't it also a reference to the cheater that had vibration nodes in his shoes to tell him the optimal moves by a bystander using a chess computer and watching them?
Ididathing tried it on their channel. Go check it out
I highly doubt that there's some secret character in MK1. If no one has even found a model for Floyd via data-mining, he ain't in the game.
It could always be a recolor of an existing character model or something, but with a different moveset or stats.
Sure, that would be lame, but that's one way to hide it from data miners.
@@FrenchRarityI only think it's lame if you're really hoping for a new model. If the defining character trait of this ninja is being pink, I think a recolour would work just fine.
The fact that it's hard to find by hacking the game makes it more unique.
@@SineN0mine3 Oh yea, I don't really care for a new model at all personally. I like learning how devs hide their stuff!
I just thought some people might find the lack of new model lame, like you said.
I don't think people realize what year we live in. To think they would add a character to any fighting game for FREE in this day and age when they charge for day one DLC for characters.. I can't even remember the last time a game had secret unlockable characters lol.
@@FrenchRarity There would still be textures or something in the game's files.
Anyone else just now get the "Purple Rain" reference in Mortal Kombat? It's so obvious that it's invisible! Like a ninja!
haha :D I mean.... it's old.... and.... only obvious if you like that song.
Rain is also a prince... get it?
There are a ton of other Prince references regarding Rain. It's really funny.
What I had heard is Ash didn't appear in MK11 because they were doing the Evil Dead game and whoever held the rights felt it'd be a conflict if interests or something
From what I remember the main reason is because Evil dead as an franchise is just absolute hell to get the rights for as it belongs to like 3 or 4 studios
@@rontheauraknight9606 Pretty sure they would've made more money by actually using the ''I.P''
Also kinda dumb that we consider ''ideas'' as ''property''
Like oh no you stole my idea you can go to jail for stealing my ideas
And now we're in a situation where 4 different studios own parts of a ''concept'' which in all honesty isn't really that tangible like you do realise they're selling us hot air right?
@@RobotronSage ideas? 3 different studios own the rights to the evil dead movies, one owns the right to the first one, one owns the right to 2, and another owns the right for 3, which is why each evil dead has basically an mini recap of what happened in each one in it lol and idk who owns the TV Show but I think it’s the same people who own the rights to Army of Darkness and the two reboots
They aren’t exactly concepts cause otherwise said movie studios would roast Cabin in the woods over a fire for using the exact same premise to start as Evil dead 1-3. Owning rights is different entirely, it basically means said studio owns the rights to use that character, it’s why if for example I wanted to make an Terminator game without legally getting permission for the rights holders, I can legally be sued for using the T-100, and the terminator name
Also while sure they could have made more money from using the ip, it depends on the cuts, and which version or versions of Ash they wanted to use, if they wanted multiple they’d need to cut in the studios that own those rights, hope they agree to the deal and the cut, and yada yada
Like there was an reason for example Sora despite being desperately wanted for Smash for over an decade never joined till they finally ironed out the rights to not being allowed to use any Disney characters at all and the only iconography of mickeys in the game is the keychain on the keyblade
The Diablo 2 easter egg in particular blew my mind, and that's still only what we know of the unsolved part of it.
It's not actually new knowledge. I've been a (very small) part of the Diablo 2 modding community for 15 years, and this isn't a new discovery.
People noticed it over 15 years ago. Used to be used for farming loot honestly. But it was esoteric knowledge that got lost when the game faded from relevance. then D2:R brought it back and new younger people who never played the original get to be amazed finding stuff they didn't know existed.
I think Odd may have misunderstood Phrozen. The change seems to be the whisps making things akin to letters. the "dance" used to be less... interesting.
@@marhawkman303 I wish I knew it, +150% MF for hours it's a great bonus 😮
Oddly, That FMV football game was in 3rd person, 1st person, *and* if you at any point are looking through another players eyes while controlling _the QB it would be 2nd person as well._
The unfound easteregg in Eldenring has to do something with the many sword monuments hinting at a berserk reference. This has already been confirmed through partly activating it when visiting them by a specific order
This is the first time I've heard of it. You got a source for that?
@@Greywander87it was revealed to him in a dream
@@turkdeadpool3414no it's true i was there
@@basedmod2139 I never said he was wrong I now for a fact this man is a seer
@@turkdeadpool3414 sorry meant to respond to the heathen @Greywander87
If I had to guess where the CoD ones are I would say World at War probably has a lot we are missing. There are several levels in the main campaign that take place in big cities where any window could be hiding a sign, any scratchmark could be a message and and any treeline could have a hidden creature that we would struggle to find them. its a varitable gold mine of maps with potential easter eggs almost in plain sight at any moment for more then half of it
Oddheader, I love you. Every time you release a video I get cosy, grab a hot drink and just have a perfect 10-15 minutes. I hope that you never get tired of this because it brings me so much joy, no matter how long it takes.
man, just wanted to say I love coming across such genuine comments on the wild. God bless bro, keep living your best life
tbh i was really expecting a mention of Noita seeing as we just got another piece of the puzzle but still haven't solved the greater mystery
What piece?
3:32 That obscured symbol is just a larger version of the symbol to the right of it - below the 3 small islands. IDK what it is but definitely not tally marks.
It's not the same.
The alternate video kind of looks like it's just the same video with shaders turned off or something
I've always been a big fan of your channel. You bring back mystery to easter eggs that I haven't experienced since the PS2 days. Lately, it seems like not many developers care to leave their mark anymore, or that publishing companies just don't allow for that level of creative freedom anymore. Either way, you revive that feeling for me with each of your videos, and I absolutely love what you do. Keep it up!
2:04 This Game Was Ahead Of Its Tine

The character in Strangeland is wearing a headband. The acid is hiding under his headband, giving him a contact high. The more you sweat, the more you will absorb the LSD and trip.
Clicked as soon as I saw the notification.
Okay, not sure why you bothered telling everyone
@@Echidneys telling people she enjoys odd header and showing support? IDK why YOU bothered commenting no offense lmao
@@smokagaming Okay, next time there's an oddheader video I'll tell a riveting story about how I clicked on the video and watched it.
Then you can applaud me in tears since that's super relevant information to you.
The joy I gain from the frequency of oddheader uploads these days is unmatched
oddheader you need to review noita. The ENTIRE game is a huge secret. The game is literally unspoilable because of the next thing that the community needs to do, which is to solve the eye glyphs
i love your videos so so so much. i watch them whenever i feel down and the little puns you make always cheer me up. you’re a living legend, odd.
diablo 2? DEMVRS , sounds like the first letters of a runeword to me , Dol - (El/ Eth /Eld) - Mal - Vex - Ral - (Sol / Sur /Shael ) . 6 socket word.
Could also potentially be the initials of devs who worked on enemy programming
@@ShadowEclipse777 who knows. could be both. the magic find boost dosent show, maybe there is a blank slate runeword for a dev weapon as well
@@lokitakahashi3042 As someone who used to hang out discussing D2 modding on Phrozen's site....... Runewords are super easy to data mine. If it was meant as a hint at a runeword we'd be able to see the Runeword in the files.
@Oddheader Also... the "dance" as it's called.... has a bunch of randomness to it that did actually get noticed years ago. The Magic Find bit might actually be the entire point to it. Do the ritual, then go murder a boss for lootz. Not having the stat display right is possibly indicative that the D2R team didn't know it existed. Yeah, D2:R... is mostly a graphics and game engine update, but the core game logic is still the same D2. It's such a faithful remake it even copies certain BUGS from the original.
The letters are dev names! And it also adds "infinite" magic find! MrLlama as a video on it :)
by @CouldBeBaked
This is an old easter egg known for 20 years, just not talked about much. And yes it spells letters of the developers.
What I like about oddheader is that the discoveries and mysteries are always fresh. I see a lot of other channels that just recycle popular ones, but every time oddheader uploads I know I'll see something new. Respect 🤟
Was just hoping you’d post today and YOU DID
10:28 That kind of sucks. It would've been a pretty wholesome easter egg (despite being in a war game) had the relationships not gone sour.
me: being bored on youtube oddheader: here is a new video for you my child
I admire the quality delivered by this content creator. Good research into the detail, always adding something new (it may sometimes take some time to find something new) and passionate about gaming in general.
Your video uploads are the highlight of my month when it comes to TH-cam at least. THANK YOU FOR DOIN THE WORK AND PUTTING THIS STUFF TOGETHER AND BEING ALTOGETHER ENTERTAINING AND INVOLVED WITHIN UR OWN COMMUNITY U ROCK
love this channel, is the only easter egg channel that survived all these years
2:20 I've watched equalsthree videos in the early 2010's so I've already had a fish-frogman sing about doing my mother.
"Doin your mom?!
That's....just insulting!" -guptill89
13:13 This reads like a Kotaku article.
Every time Leonard Nimoy comes up it always something weird
I literally hang in for these uploads, these videos are incredible, thanks again oddheader for your continued service in providing us entertainment ❤
So glad I’m up at mid night to watch this the same day it comes out😅
The 'small element' in elden ring that miyazaki hinted could very well have been a wooden shield at the start of the game that had markings similar to a knight in the DLC that appeared not too long ago.
You oddy!! Thank you for the content fr. It’s enjoyable when I first watch, and the best background sounds for when I sleep or nap. Forever grateful for you 🤙
I love watching this channel with my adult son (who has autism). We usually watch together after his feeding time (he hates the tube no matter what gauge I try so he gets cranky) and right before I drop him off for his shift at Taco Bell. This always calms him down.
for the first one wouldn't the answers to trigger it be somewhere in the files? How would the game know what keywords are needed to trigger the easter egg if they aren't somewhere in the files?
You are right however the problem is the keywords are probably encrypted which makes this task extremely time consuming to reverse engineer.
@@MichaelPohoreski yeah I was assuming there would probably be more and that its not as simple as I think.
I just came back to watch this again to try and forget about the 13 minute sponsored ad he put out.
Just in time for my lunch break. Odd header never misses!
I love these videos so much. Thanks oddheader!!
4:56 Holy shit, I almost forgot about that Magazine! I actually think I still have that issue lying around in a box somewhere. I absolutely loved the pixel art pencil puzzles in those things!
This is the first time I've ever seen anything related to sea man in YEARS dude
Imagine proposing to the woman you love in Call of Duty. Gamer moment.
Are you saying that she wouldn't be playing the game?
This is classic Oddheader. Awesome video
love this channel and the commuinity that makes it possible. every video is a bangurr
Watching these videos always makes me wonder how many secrets were discovered by accident and the player who found them didn't even know they were a unfounded mystery
Isn't there a Marriage Proposal Easter Egg in Black OPs 3, more specifically in the Zombies map Der Eisendrache?
I know it isn't a CoD game he's worked on but it stands to reason he'd be within the industry enough to hear about it, no? either way, great vid as always Mr. Head
EE is not related to Jesse Snyder, but it's very good that you reminded us about it 😍
I had a real big smile seeing you had a new video. Thank you!!!
I've watched this six times already
That chess game is SO familiar! My dad got it for his computer, and I played that game a lot! I loved chess when I was a kid, and still do
Love the storytelling in your videos!
I wonder if the in-Game proposals are the gaming equivalent of getting your girlfriend's/boyfriend's name tattooed on you. Kinda crazy how that is yet another relationship curse.
I still think about the unsolved Destiny Last Exit cypher you’ve previously mentioned. Has there been any update to that one?
Yesterday I was thinking about when a new video would come out! And today a new ODDHEADER video is out!
I miss Seaman, it was the game that was my favorite dreamcast game and the game that made my parents sell my Dreamcast for a Playstation. They got tired of hearing me tell my friend 'Lets play with my Seaman' whenever they came over.
I genuinely love your lame dad-level puns. A new Odd video always brightens my day
It’s a good day when there’s a new Oddheader vid
Okay so that thumbnail violently ripped old memories from my childhood subconscious and I was not prepared
This is so much better than the ad.
Looks like the Easter Eggs are taking the toll on you brother.
The Sea Man song he used underneath the edited clips sounds EXACTLY like the Megaman NT warrior intro song. Wild LOL
The cow level is also referenced in hearthstone! its a card back from a 2017 tavern brawl, I remember playing it back then and I have the card back so I wanted to point it out :)
I remember finding the gloams for this D2 one many years ago before the xpac came out but passing it off as a bug since they were inexplicably non-hostile, and I think a lot of other people who came across them did as well.
Most people who came across this specific spawn probably didn't even see their behavior since it becomes very ingrained in you to start blasting the second anything even remotely resembling a gloam/soul comes on screen and not stopping until they are dead. It's not a big surprise that this was never identified as an intentional easter egg then.
That month went by way too fast
that cod developer was probably right about these proposal easter eggs being cursed lol. i think it has the potential to say a lot about the dynamic of the relationship before the breakup, like the infamous spiderman easter egg
for example: after it had gone viral and the girlfriend rejected the proposal, she revealed that she didn't even play video games.
for this kind of easter egg to actually work and be sweet and thoughtful, your partner actually has to have a love for video games. otherwise it kind of falls flat and only comes off as you wanting a cool easter egg in a game you like over wanting to do a special proposal for your partner.
Loved AVGN Seaman episode, this is truly one of the strangest games there is!
Black OPs 3 has still the impossible Easter Egg that was never been solved/found
My little oddhead is excited
4:57 Wow, I actually own that magazine. I don't remember where it is but it's in some box packed away.
I missed these videos, I love this channel
I love this channel so much, do you happen to know what happened to the Easter egg hunter he kind of like disappeared
Wow, I've played Diablo 2 so many hours and didn't know about that. That's wild.
Wow, just wow, still undiscovered EE after all these years, incredible
Oddheader has some of the best puns!
I would assume that the bathroom scene ended up being taken out at the last minute, unless they made its chances of popping up incredibly rare.
Floyd reminds me so much of Ermac back in the original Mortal Kombat
BABE WAKE UP! A NEW ODDHEADER VIDEO!!!!!!
FINALLY
Bro is like “I hope this comment will make people notice me again. So I’ll try it again.”
WOOOOO FUCKING LOVE ODDHEADER
HOLD ME BABE
Love the babe comments😂😂 these mfs have everything exept a bae😂
Dang, Oddheader. No Secret Zoo Level from Accounting+?
Can we have Todd Howard?
we have Todd Howard at home.
Todd Howard at home:
There are so many things lost in those old 90s Video Game Mags. I miss the Video Game Players Magazine aprilfools with Jurassic Pork and such.
I was NOT expecting Diablo 2 and definitely wasn't expecting something I didn't know about diablo 2. This is why I love your videos
@divinedoodoo I agree Diablo 2 is such an interesting game.
I was expecting some talk about the Zoo level in Accounting+
“… *Square* of acid…” 😂
It’s been so long since I’ve heard him sing in Seaman. I think you have to annoy him ever so often to make him to sing and insult you the player. It was funny yet bizarre times when that game got released. If I were to load my save file he be long dead
You need to make a compilation of Mortal Kombat Easter eggs and hidden stuff
Sad to not see Noita Eyes mystery in this video
I wonder if I should submit a weird thing that happened to me in Silent Hill to Oddheader. I recorded it on a Stream and all. Might be fun if no one saw it before, my husband's friend who is a Silent Hill fan sure didn't!
