Perhaps you missed a memo, so better head to the meeting room.
You might even be hearing voice’s in your head.
And the voices narrate what you are doing. For example you come to a set of two doors and you choose to go through the one on the left.
That sounds like a stressful situation, I think I’ll just hang out in the broom closet.
I heard there is a broom closet nearby, so might as well head there
I played this game and I don’t understand it, what is the point ? honestly the performance of the narrator was amazing and was my favourite part of the game but otherwise I don’t understand what the “message” is.
spoiler
and like, who is stanley ? who is the narrator ? how come stanley can hear narrator’s voice ? if stanley is in a game and we are playing that game, then narrator should be in the game too, somehow he is in the game and not in the game at the same time ??
If you’re asking all these questions, you’re trying too hard to “get” the game.
It’s kind of a humor game, kind of a satirical take on how games in general just kind of expect you to follow along but in SP you can do all kind of “not what we’re here for” shit like sitting in a closet for twenty minutes. Is it riveting gameplay? Not usually, but it was worth the $5 I paid for it. I certainly have gotten more than $5 of entertainment out of it.
Totally understand if that kind of game isn’t everyone’s cup of tea. I certainly wouldn’t have played it in highschool. Or at least I’d be bored with it very quickly.
And with all the different paths in the game, replay is okay because you probably don’t remember all of them.
I am sorry, but could someone please explain this to me? Looks like an old office with old monitors, but is the joke more than just “times have changed”?
It’s a game. Stanley Parable
Ah, thank you. I never got to actually play it yet…
it’s funny and clever. kind of like Portal without all the puzzles.
Wait, this is a game?
The Stanley Parable, really good. It‘s not The Backrooms, if you thought it‘s that.
I went through all the endings in under two hours and spent the rest of the afternoon in intense terror about the idea of eternal life and the possibility of eternal suffering…
Probably not what the author intended, but I’m not playing it again.
but I’m not playing it again.
For five years, so you get the achievement right?
