ATTN: People who have played the Stanley Parable

Does it have a point beyond "game but what if not follow instruction????"

Odradek · 2016-01-06 22:11:46

Actually I've heard it's funny, so maybe that's it.

Tachyon · 2016-01-06 22:16:36

my brother has it

i did find it funny, but it's kinda short and nothing much happens

which is part of the joke, of course, but when you've seen that, that's it

Odradek · 2016-01-06 22:20:44

I did find Dr. Langeskov and the overly long title funny.

yeah, that's it

I like the idea of a game where the player can never ever be right, but it's something that a lot of people are uncomfortable with. I don't know if it's to your tastes.

I watched rockleesmile play the whole thing, it looked like much more fun than most games, but it felt like it needed... a capstone of some sort?

like, it looked like if there was juuuuuust something a little more it would have been fucking incredible, but as it it's just Pretty Darn Good

Obā-san · 2016-01-07 01:28:44

I know that's vague as fuck, but that's because I really don't know what that thing would be

I will accept this.

I always felt like Stanley Parable was a game for people who take the "games are art" maxim really really seriously.

I didn't care for the freeware version and never bought the full one.

Odradek · 2016-01-07 02:13:13

I will say, again, Dr. Langeskov was pretty funny and a way better meta game about games than a lot of meta games about games.

Salix Babylonika · 2016-01-07 02:13:33

I have that downloaded, I should play it sometime.

Odradek · 2016-01-07 02:13:35

Also it's free, so I certainly got my money's worth.

if it was, it was definitely having a joke at the expense of the people playing it

well, it was anyway, but i felt it was quite scathing when parodying halfassed art games

Salix Babylonika · 2016-01-07 02:15:51

I dunno.

I have nothing left to say about that game really, I don't think it is necessarily bad but it is certainly not something I'll ever get anything out of.
