More of a book writer hell. Books are follow more linear path due to character being someone who would follow that path by describing it in the book. But in the game character(aka player) is free to do whatewer he wants. That makes no sense since described character wouldn't do that. That what makes narrator get's angry: his description of character fades away once character choices are out of character.

By fighting the narrative in narrative driven games, and not enjoying the genre for what it is, and instead trying to seek freedom, the only thing you’ll do is make the experience harder on yourself and the game designer.

Determinism is the main theme of the game after all. And, because it's a parable, there must be someone to tell it. Consequently, everything in the story is predetermined. The only difference is that the narrator's made-up character 'Stanley' is somehow replaced by a real person which gives them free choice. But because every 'ending' is still predetermined it's debatable whether you have free choice at all. At the end of the day, you're still being puppeteered by the narrator even when you disobey him.

Had Jack not been skipping through so quickly, the narrator would have actually said as much himself at one point. Listening to all of the narration in that section shows a progression of the narrator's mind breaking more and more with each skip, culminating in him repeating "the end is never the end". It's a far more powerful and unsettling moment having listened to everything he had to say, rather than the "skip button go brrr" approach many are likely to take.

This game is truly witty and gives me incredible laughs. But when the game dives into deep and depressing subjects like this, I can't help but feel bad for the narrator. Having to sit there for years on end, watching existence as you know it crumble before you, having no one to talk to. That shit triggers that existential crisis mode in my head when presented with topics of immortality and loneliness.

Been part of the community since middle school, I'm 22 now. Watching a playlist of all the Stanley Parable videos from over the years. The playlist is comforting but you can SEE the difference between 2013 Jack and 2022 Jack. Proud of the growth he's made.

Stanely is happy following instructions though, his job is literally just following commands on a screen and pressing buttons and that's what makes him happy. In a more meta sense the player is also following instructions on a screen and pressing buttons but arguably finds the more interesting and fun endings by disobeying the narrator, a direct contradiction to what Stanley himself enjoys. Maybe the ultimate message of the game is that one may feel in control and 'happy' when following the commands of others (like Mariella and Stanley do) but true happiness and freedom can be found when taking ones own path and making independent decisions.

I've been watching since I was in 5th grade, middle me was going through it to say the least and Sean was escape for the day, his 2 videos everyday made the chronic anxiety and crippling depression a little easier to deal with, it was a familiar and kind voice that was loud and enthusiastic more often than not and It was like a friend tryna cheer me up and it worked, I went to his first tour the first show it was in Chicago and when I say I was sobbing I mean like this man is my hero, lives in another country and I never thought id be able to see him and here I am in the same room, i will never be able to thank him but this man has saved lives and touched people's hearts and he needs to be protected at all costs

I love how Sean was raving about buckets and then they added a bucket into the game. Absolutely gold.

The narrator calling the player their friend and sounding genuinely concerned that they'd been gone for so long after using the skip button is almost heartbreaking. I really enjoy how the narrator becomes less of an omnipotent voice and just someone with us who seems to be dedicated to recording the events as they happen, a friend even. It really speaks to the amazing creativity of the developers and writers. I honestly wasn't ready for this video to end!

This game with the beginners guide was my entire childhood, i would sit and play this game for so long and be completely happy to walk around and do the completely wrong thing.

I'm not sure how it's taken my so many years to realize. The "correct" ending of the game celebrates Stanley finally exercising his free will and independence. In the game itself, the whole time you're playing the narrator is actively stifling *your* free will & independence. That's why it's a parable!

He would hope the person had a fulfilling life outside randomly commenting for people to follow Jesus. Stanley then went to go watch lesbian porn while eating pizza with his wife.

As Jack said, in the "Memory" room, in the Steam reviews part, there are a lot of positive, "Recommended" comment,s but they're blurry and unreadable. Then the negative reviews are crystal clear. That really stands out to me because it can be like that. I know it has been for me in my life.

It's so weird, how the human mind & emotions work. Part of survival instinct, sadly. Negatives are focused on more so we can more clearly remember & avoid danger. But this sucks for self-esteem. We can get 300 positive reviews, but are hit hardest by 1 negative one. & even when we leave said reviews, it's much easier to go into detail about the flaws, even if they're minor, but much harder to give major focus & detail to the good parts. "This one part was a bit awkward because blah blah blah, many many sentences... But everything else was great!" & we can create something amazing, enjoyable for many... Yet notice one small flaw & feel like a total failure. This game KNOWS the human experience.

I love how many things in this can be a parable. The "good" ending is all about being freed from everyone's control and taking matters into your own hands, but it's the ending you get for never doing anything outside of what you're told. You're forfeiting freedom and having your eyes smeared with lies. It's not just goofy, there's a lot of really well thought-out storytelling

I love Kevan Brighting, the voice actor for the narrator in the Stanley Parable. He voice acted for one of the videos I made that was a parody of the Stanley Parable (it was an announcement video for an anime fandub that my teenage brain didn't consider the questionable copyright infringement of, so it's unlisted now). The fact, though, that he was willing to help a small teen KZreadr make a small parody video based on the game he voice acted for is super wholesome. Super kind and professional, too!

I study game Dev because of my love for games like this. And this game is also something I check that game channels new to me have played. In fact, this game was one of the first playthroughs I saw of Jack's! So this game, both the old and new version, I hold very closely to my heart

I love how jack talks about the reality of what reviews can convey to creators, they can be good or bad but the bad ones can sometimes be taken very deeply and that's just true, this game portrays that very well.

I finally got the chance to play Ultra Deluxe myself, so I no longer felt the need to avoid watching playthroughs that would spoil new content, so I’m here to watch this now, though it’s been months. I listened to all of his ramblings until they looped before pressing the skip button, and maybe it’s just because it’s so similar to my own anxieties in life, but I cried by the end of that part. Anyhow, it’s lovely to see a return to the Stanley Parable! I fell in love with the game so much that I sought out as many videos as possible to see people’s reactions, and yours was one I had watched. So I’ve been here, not regularly always, but often and for a long while, since then. You’ve grown so much, truly, and it’s beautiful to see. Thank you for being so amazing. I hope to see you keep changing for the better as time moves on. Have a lovely day!

I legit am that viewer you are talking to at the end! Watched your OG playthrough and here for this one as well! That 20 year old has nothing to be ashamed of.

I’ve always loved little indie games with amazing humor and 4th wall breaking. The Stanley Parable does incredibly at bringing that feeling while also being a massive game with hundreds of endings

Stanley is you, the gamer. When you first ended the game. It froze and shut down the PC, just as Stanley was walking out. It's telling you shut your PC and go outside and live. You are Stanley. And the PC is the mind control. In fact it knew that you finished it when you turned it back on. It was part of the game. Other clues: the initial screen has an infinite loop of screens. Saying you are part of the loop. Part of it. Part of the game.

The shutdown wasn't a real shutdown. It was the game pretending a shutdown. Since when you're back straight to the game after a shutdown? It would boot up the Bios for a short time, then the Windows and if he has a sign in screen (some of us have), then he'd have to sign in and then turn on the game and continue from a last saved point ... all of that was skipped, so it wasn't a real shutdown. He was still recording the whole time, even if he kept the recording on a separate computer (I've heard some streamers do that), it would record the whole process of booting up, not just returning with a "set your clock on" screen and then immediately back to the game. That isn't how a shutdown work, not even a reset. It's the game pretending.
