Darwin's Village Question. Mild Spoilers.
So I managed to clear the plague without killing anyone. I did come across a room with another mutant in a containment chamber with 4 turrets. I don't have the skill to unlock that door and I cannot talk with it. Anyone knwo where I can find the password? Is there an associated quest to go wiht this?

It's more of an easter egg, referencing something from the first game. No quest. I don't know the password.

All passwords for Darwin, all in last post in spoilers:

In my opinion all those designs for all those passwords are weak to bad, the designers are really weak to design tricks, divinity original sin shows a hugely better job in tricks design. Ok I admit I didn't found a single one, but also didn't tried search much. I still can evaluate a trick by looking at its hints and solutions, weak job here.

I, too, finally cheated here and got the password from the Wiki.

Nevertheless, I wonder if there is a legit way to find it somewhere. Any hints?

You will know these two passwords if you played Wasteland 1. The first password to enter Darwin's lab you can get in the RC musuem, which is Proteus. It was used to enter the elevater in W1. The password for the Night Terror is iceberg which was used in Finster's Mind Maze. I don't believe you can obtain the Night Terror code in-game.

Wow those are some stretches. Proteus was the name on that head up for display in the CItadel. The one is impossible since I never played the first. Thats really not good easter eggs... Luckily I had Rose to open the lab door for me. THere is a safe I cannot access anyone know where to find that password? It seems this area is way above my level.

The Night Terror is the easter egg, not the password. And you don't need the password. You can just hack the door.

It's even worse, considering the NPCs in Happy Vallay gives you tips for Red's password, and they have nothing to do with the actual password. They give you "password" and "preferred", seemingly implying it's an obvious password. While it's not.
You also have the owl of minerva, linked to a safe in Titan's canyon. On the owl of minerva, you have alpha, theta and epsilon carved. People have tested pretty much everything related to that, to no avail. The password is supposedly hebrew, and can be heard with the radio somewhere in arizona, as part as some discussion in latin.

The game gives lots of tips and clue for codes. Sadly, most of the time, they are not even remotely related to the code itself. I don't know why they did that, it's just pointless to create all those tips, when they are not used at all.

I found that "Proteus"-code in the Citadel and the "Bellona" on an item, I found in RNC.
But how could I even think, that these might be the codes for something in a zombie-town?

When did I play W1....? About 20 years ago? There is nothing left in my memory except the horrible fighting-screen...

Pointless? Obviously people figured them out since anyone who can't themselves can just look them up online. I remember in beta that most of these were solved. Many people in the niche crowd that funded this game love little hints and puzzles like this.

Proteus hints at Finister and a guy in Atchinson camp talks about Darwin if you have the medal of honor. Not too mention that all these can be hacked. Even the safe can be blown up with TNT.

It's sugar for the fans, if you don't get it, you aren't hindered at all.

Well, it's not about beeing hindered.
I just wanted to know, if there is a legit way to figure all that stuff out.

Might be, that many of these hints make references to the originl game.
But man, I bet most of the actual players weren't even born at these times :)

Some of them were entered randomly. The Red one for example doesn't makes sense. Period. Someone just tried the W1 password, and it worked, but it was random, not solving a mystery. There is no clue, not a single one, to link this code to the tips the NPCs are giving to the player.

Same goes for the owl safe, there is a 2pages long post on the forum (google it). People tried a lots of password, until some guy found the password. By apparently listening to a dev conversation.
Now, if you can kindly tell me which is the link between the owl and the word "Rabboni", which is heard through a random broadcast in AZ (which happened on the opposite side of Titan's canyon, AFTER I was done with it), that would be appreciated.

Now that's puzzle solving ! Some of them were found randomly, by listening devs, or even checking gamefiles (the owl safe had people checking the files for it) !
Woohoo, puzzle solving at it's finest !
