This was a surprisingly poetic episode of Completionist. I appreciate how much love you showed not just the gameplay, but the tones and themes behind it. I agree that this game became such an iconic piece of gaming history, it's always stuck with me as a pretty important title. Thanks for the nostalgia trip back in time. I think I need to replay this one.

Hearing a "Hey all" without a "Scott here" is mildly depressing

Like how changing your perspective of time changes the whole tone of the media...

Game is ahead of its time with its blend of gameplay and story like you mentionned, amazing episode, love me some philosophical talk

Still say I wanna torture him and make him play Shadow the Hedgehog. I honestly think it may be the longest game to 100% while also being the most dreadful. Most missions have 3 objectives each which can get an A rank, the game tracks the order you beat the missions in so you have to play through the story 365 times to get all paths of the story listed (yes you read that right, the game really does keep track so it does count), The bosses also have to be A ranked, after getting all 10 endings (not all story paths) you got to then do the Final Story, then after you get an A rank on every mission on every level you get to do it again as it unlocks Hard Mode which has whole new A ranks for every single mission. You can't tell me there is a more dreadful 100% that exists.

It’s an incredible feat to be so compete in a media field, and what you’ve done for video games has been incredible. You and all your team should be incredibly proud of the content that you’ve put out the past couple of years.

The great thing about you, Jirard, is that your love for videogames always comes across in each and every one of your videos. Even if you don't like the game that much, you can still find things you enjoy about it. I never knew about Braid when it came out, so this has made me consider digging it up and having a go.

This is one of my favorite games of all time! (No pun intended) Thank you for this awesome video, Jirard.

I haven’t played Braid but I have heard consistently good reviews of it. This was by far the best review I’ve seen. Thanks for sharing!

One of my favorite games, and my first speed run game. So glad to see Jirard talk about this game!

Ahhh the music! It has one of my favorite tracks from Diddy's Kong Quest!

Neat! All of the background music pieces we hear throughout this video are actually slowed-down versions of classic video game songs from his favorite games, including DKC2!

Great vid, very well done. I think you did the game justice. Liked and subscribed

Top notch videos...as always.

Thanks for reminding me I still need to watch Primer!

I would actually want this episode but in reverse now that you mentioned it...!

Braid: Chrono Legends

This game was the first stone that kicked of the landslide of my game design interest. It made me realize games are art pieces if intended (and sometimes unintended). This game showed me how games and gaming tropes can be used to tell a story, and engage the player in a transcended manner. Really happy that you give this a showcase. It's a great games simply for how it weaves the story and immerses the player.

Excellent game and excellent episode!

That MUSIC. It's been on constantly in my playlists since playing that game. I listen to it while I go for nature walks. Its so soothing and beautiful. The game is fantastic as it is, but the music brings this game to a whole-nother level.

That 15 minutes that wasn't used was used for this episode

feels like theres a more analytical tone to this one. i like it.

Great video! You should try the infamous series!

I never played Braid, but I love how they use the rewind feature in so many ways

Ah, a classic not lost to time.

i was thinking about filming this episode backwards but "HOUSE GODS".

The Company of Myself is another great game about time. It is a browser game where, through repeated tries, you help yourself get through puzzles.

Take a drink every time he says "time"

The ending you unlock is so good, though. Completing it is totally worth it.

I just want to say this game looks amazing, sound amazing and is all-round AMAZING!

BRAID: SHADOW LEGENDS

Man now I want replay Braid it's been so long.

I remember my first time playing Braid. I felt so stupid at times because I couldn't figure out how to get certain puzzle pieces, and having to look up guides on how to get them, thus somewhat staining my experience with it. But I definitely wasn't expecting that twist at the end. I still remember it vividly.

I've been looking for this game, I've played it a while back and forgot what it was called. I love it.

Cave Story, Castle Crashers, Braid, and Super Meat Boy .. The immortal indie game overlords.

ooo Braid. I remember this game very well. this game is what inspired me to begin story writing in college

I know you said Patreon... but Quackshot should be in the running for a metroidvania game that is reviewed. It is massively underrated and one of the few in that genre on the genesis.

Oh man, Braid was one of the first big indie games I ever played. Real real blast from the past on this one.

I was having an awkwardly silent dinner with my dad when the notification rang. I remembered Braid having a something of a link with Dr Strangelove, so I Checked to see if it was available on Prime Video, it is; and from there I struck a conversation about classical and overrated movies with my father. Thank you.

I hate to admit how much I needed a guide for this game lol.

I've never played this, but definitely heard good things about it!

I have got to try this game!

Best videogame theme song ever. 'Nuff said.

This game was definitely an experience...

I really like your thumbnail art

That problem with layers, is that you have to peel back the previous layer to get to the next one, discarding any meaning or purpose the previous layer had.

I bought this game on Humble a long, long time ago, but it never interested me until now. I'll definitely check it out now. Thank you.

I NEED THAT DKC2 / DOWNSTREAM SONG

Wow, one of the first few commentators on a video with a channel as big as this.

This games soundtrack has been on constant rotation in my life since I first played it. Downstream is pure bliss.

Ooh now you gotta do Baba Is You. There's a mind bender for you, and there's a hell of a completionist criteria as well.

Time is ever marching onwards beyond reality but eternally linked to reality. When you try to understand the complexity of Time and reality it is always harder to connect it to something inside everyday life.

first time hearing about this game!

Watched, commented, and liked to boost that revenue 👌

When he started with hey all I thought it was gonna end with Scott here

you should start a website with each game you complete with a list of completion criteria. you could even add games you haven't completed because you personally don't want to or you just don't have the time to.

You know, I learned that time is a fuck while tripping on acid recently. Sure it's a thing, but the rate it flows is hardly absolute. First thing I noticed when I dropped was that things were getting weird with time. Time was moving really fast. I was like "Wait it's been an hour? It feels like half an hour". But then things slowed down later on. And it's like that while sober too. The old saying "Time flies when having fun" is an example.

a platforming classic that everyone should play if you ask me
