Mycologists Act 2 [Potential clue/Spoilers]

[Casanova]

If you feed enough cards to the mycologists, they say that they're studying these cards for "the code". I'm assuming this is linked to the cipher people have been searching for. After giving them 2 blue mages, it dropped a purple holo key for me. I haven't done much past this but it looks like this is the next step of the ARG element of the game.

I'm assuming this because of info people have been trying to decipher where the mycologists are mentioned + to achievement hunt for what I assumed would be the Collective Effort achievement.

you have to actually give him 3 pairs of cards... maybe is something related to their power and health but i discovered another interesting thing...
when loading act 2 there is a check that goes inside the OLD_DATA folder and search for key maybe we have to search into that? maybe is an hidden folder? P03 uses in his part so it may be...

One locked door is in the crypt cane be found when entering crypt area and go right.

Other one is behind refresh station after you cross the first bridge by clicking hidden arrow AT THE BOTTOM RIGHT CORNER of the screen.

The coordinates are too imprecise (I found it really funny when he said it was nearby without saying the decimal - a degree of latitude covers like 100km), but if you look up the full coordinates from the card he shows in the later videos, you get a spot just west of Beaver Lake in Stanley Park, Downtown Vancouver - which I could totally believe was where they filmed)

I got the key but I couldn't open the lock in the crypt in Act 3. However I was able to open another lock that was located in the techno tower in the top left part of the map. The lock just disappeared tho without any effect that I could find. It was just hovering in the room and not on a door.

There were people who went to the coordinates and dug up floppy discs at the location. No idea what they contain though.

Go to the intersection between where Leshy's cabin and Grimora's crypt would be. It's a node with a waypoint. Move your mouse to the bottom right of the location. This should show a diagonal arrow. The key will unlock the door at that node.
