The Talos Principle
Through a window discussion. (one of the puzzles).
Ok, I'm not sure if a puzzle title is considered a spoiler or not, so I just said screw it and put spoiler tags anyways. My question is: am I missing something? I don't think this puzzle can be done with only three connectors. I'm driving myself crazy trying to figure out the right way to do this but everything I try is not working out well. I'm not really asking for help, I'm just asking if maybe there should have been four connectors so it could actually work, or I'm just an idiot who can't figure this out? What I'm asking I guess, is the level I mean hard for everyone? or is it so easy, a child can do it?

Edit: Apparently you can't add spoiler tags in the title. Sorry for spoiling a puzzle title.

I am stuck on this one as well. I keep thinking I am missing something. It is really annoying me. I wanted to look up a guide for it because I was on it for half an hour with little progress I got the three close to the last area I just can't figure out what is next in the last part.
Yes, it is possible to complete with three connectors. It isn't too hard but it I think once you figure out the first 'half' of the puzzle the second half should be much easier. Just like a fair number of puzzles, the title is a hint.

Swapper is actually a very clever puzzle;)

Somehow, your "clue" led me to easily complete it, as I was stumped before. It WAS clever, as I didn't know that was possible, as it was never exploited in the original game. Thanks!

Interesting.....I'm also tempted to ask what that impossible thing is. Though I guess it be better to figure it out myself? I don't know, really.
I can't explain it in writing, but open field and through a window are the only two i did, i think through a window took me more time than any single puzzle to complete. All i can say is look at the previosu opened gates and ask if you still need them, and use the windows for shortcuts. It can be done. I'm stuck on the one called the swapper - two colours, yet only ONE mirror. My guess will be the other colour may come from external source.
Still this game is SINISTER! Does my head in. Never been so happy.

Yea, I love puzzle games, but sometimes figuring the puzzles out is annoying. Especially when others seem to finish them so quickly. Makes me feel like I'm missing something.
Very tricky puzzle, especially the last corridor, you pretty much need to do a round around so you can keep the second last force door open from the outside, so the connector on the inside doesnt have to worry about keeping it open.
You don't need to go aroud, you can keep all 3 connectors behind last door as well. I guess one of the solutions.

Big spoilert alert: A connector can connect red and blue simultaneously! (At least they can be selected at the same time.)

Ok, actually, I'm still not getting it, how would you select which laser gets picked? I mean, you can connext both of them to the connector, but they would not work right. I'll keep trying.

Big spoilert alert:

You're addressing an entirely-different puzzle in World 1, not 'Through A Window'.

'Window' is solvable with three - the creators are just messing with your assumptions based upon your previous experience. It just means doing something with the items you have that I don't think ever came up in the main game.
Just a hint (this one stumped me for a while as well): You might have an urge to not pass a laser through an open barrier because of the fear that it might be cut off if the barrier closes. Fight that urge. And remember to use one of your connectors as a primer, much like you probably have done in the original game.
I hope that helps.
