So, I've got the door to open, but there is something fishy with this puzzle.

I've got the secret right away without any trouble, but the door did not open. I've gone through the steps that got me the secret again (after a reload), and this time the door opened.

Yeah, I also reloaded before I could finish it, but I also went back to a save where I hadn't even started the puzzle yet. I dunno if it's the door needing to be opened or you have to reload or both, but something doesn't seem right here.

I noticed something else that points to there being a bug, too:
SpoilerShow
When I opened the first door (in the hallway leading to the puzzle and crystal), the second door in the upper puzzle room never opened, and the robed figure who's supposed to appear and slam it shut, never showed up. This was on the attempt where I managed to complete the puzzle and open the door.

What's extra weird is that I didn't use the same method to get the secret as I did to get the door open.
SpoilerShow
To get the secret, I dropped the spider on the middle plate and dropped rocks on all the pressure plates. I then hit the teleporter again, and got the secret (as well as all the rocks teleporting to be in front of me. The door didn't open until I dropped the rocks on the specific pressure plates the lights indicate.

Speaking of being stuck in those ruins, could anyone post a screen with locations of both keys needed to open the hamlet. I have one and i just spent 5 fucking hours looking for the second and I just may gouge my eyes out soon.

I am stuck at the beginning of Ruins of Desarune. Where it says "meditation spire" or something like that. Any hint?

Oh well, I got stuck here too, so it seems to be a design bug. What I did is jump down the pit near the crystal first, before opening the door. But the stairs up back from the pit are on the other side of the door, so there doesn't seem to be a way out. I found the secret with the spider in the middle and all, but no way out.

I guess I need to reload my previous game which was before entering the ruins... pfffff. :( :roll:

I think you haven't solved the spider riddle yet.

No, I got the spider in the middle and got the three plates lit up, and then I got to the full helm, if that was the riddle... I just replayed to the same point, this time entered through the door. I directly dropped the items on the right plates, which opened the secret but not the 2nd door above. I had the spider go up and then down again and the door opened this time, not sure why.
