- David O'Reilly is an artist known for bizarre animated ephemera - a cult episode of the cartoon, Adventure Time, the foul-mouthed 3D simulation in the movie Her. And now he's created a video game that allows players to become anything - and everything -in our interconnected universe. It's called, Everything, and it's getting rave reviews.

Now I hope people is getting his message....what he is explaining do you understand more than what he's trying to explain.
lol undaunted boy... so true. Watts is so redundant. He's one giant tautology.
Irrational trolls are the best trolls.
Can I be a prostitute?
NO MAN'S SKY 2
Both their hairstyles look like something out a game's character creation screen.
Smoke but you couldn't come up with anything so you randomise it
im glad gerald from hey arnold grew up and got a good job.
Actually laughed out loud
He's just a boy. Why'd you have to go and do that? Lol
Thomas McCoy yessss!!!!! Haha
Lmao
Bruh
homie looks like a black marge simpson
Manuelle Angelo Dela Cruz more like Gerald from Hey Arnold!
lol
Manuelle Angelo Dela Cruz that my wife...
Manuelle Angelo Dela Cruz or that football head shaped character Arnolds best friend
I was thinking the exact same thing
yeah sure you can become anything you just can't do anything
Ben Schwarz yeah the game looks like shit
I can finally be a mailbox unlike in fallout who needs to go an another settlement run when u can wait for mail
Yet
dmontoy52 huh?
IT's kinda shit but also kinda absorbing. It's an interesting distraction just because of how complex the relations between all objects in the game are.
But at the end of the day, there isn't much in the way of traditional gameplay. It's a cool experiment though.
this seems like a great game to play when your really high
Jonathan Torres right this video just blew my mind high hahaha
Jonathan Torres right might have to get it now lol
I was just thinking the same thing LOL
It is a good game to play when your high.
Any game is a good game to play while high
Bro I can't take him seriously with this box on his head😂
Trinton Duncan whats with arnold's friend finally grew up
X box 1
Pepe Penninkhof 😂😂😂😂
Trinton Duncan xbox top..i rhought he was talking to a character he created
Leftists often need an exaggerated (public) image to make up for having shallow senses of self.
Thats what it does it appeals the male fantasie
Jeff Von Beer are you a feminist? Or was that a joke?
Napstablook its a quote from a video BuzzFeed did about GTA
Strong Beatle oh ok lol
The black kid from Hey Arnold became a journalist. Go figure.
Gerald? Lololol
He was supposed to be a game show host lol
😂😂 that's pretty good.
And the developer looks like that kid who shot himself in 13 Reasons Why
I can't wait to play as an atom of hydrogen.
I've been waiting my whole life.
GastonBoucher play flower
GastonBoucher isn't it out already ???🤔 I saw pewdiepie play this like 6 months ago.
GastonBoucher #heliummasterrace
Canni wait to be a a grain of salt
This is more of an art project rather than a gaming experience. He's out to express something, not to let the gamer explore a story or a specific narrative. Could be a cool game if you are familiar with Watts
game is a service, not an art, you are correct
h mc it can be art
sorry but according Hideo Kojima it is not, see www.eurogamer.net/articles/news240106kojimaart
www.rogerebert.com/rogers-journal/video-games-can-never-be-art
I just put the short excerpt in here, you should read the whole thing:
I'm an avid gamer of over 20 years, but games are not art.
"People like to think anything which creates some sort of emotional reaction or engagement to be art, but that's incredibly messy use of language; language and words are clearly defined for a reason. If I'm emotionally impacted by taking a dump, does that make it art? Absolutely not, and to assert such a thing is an absurd notion.
Video games are defined by interaction and experience. Art, as much as pretentious, self-proclaimed "artists" and "art connoisseurs " would like you to believe, is not experienced, it is observed. However, that doesn't make it any less valuable, it's just the simple truth of it.
On the same token, saying that games are not art is not a slight against them at all. People like to think that there is some negative stigma on games, that they are somehow less valuable than art is. Well,life itself suggests otherwise. Games, and the very nature of "play," have been instrumental in the development of life.
Games become a meaningful experience because they present challenges that must be overcome, much like life itself. You need to learn the game system, the rules of interaction, and then you need to develop the knowledge to make informed decisions, and the skill to execute your decision. The end result holds meaning because it's something you've had to work for, and because the skills you've developed and the knowledge you've gained are real.
Modern gamers have lost touch with this, because they do not like gameplay. They press for games to have "deep engrossing stories," rather than deep, meaningful interaction. It's because people don't like to work, and don't like to fail. Games require one and present the consequence of the other. That's why modern games like Uncharted, Journey, The Waking Dead, etc. amount to little more than shallow, inconsequential experiences. The interaction is dumbed down to minimize the potential of failure, and the fail consequence is all but nonexistent. Instead, gamers do little more than act as the invisible hand guiding their avatar along the singular, pre-determined path, trivializing their own agency in what is supposed to be an experience defined by their agency.
Roger understood games far better than the overwhelming majority of gamers, and he wasn't even a gamer."
+h mc
I disagree with all your statments.
"Games become a meaningful experience because they present challenges that must be overcome"
This is ''game'' is not described by this therfore totaly irrelevent.
"Modern gamers have lost touch with this, because they do not like gameplay. They press for games to have "deep engrossing stories," rather than deep, meaningful interaction."
Again it is projecting that because these games dont fit the discription therefore are not ''good games'', its totaly bullshit man.
How hard is it to understand that ''meaningful interaction'' does not nececarilly lead to challenges to overcome.
Hideo Kojima brilliant as he may be does not mean everything he says should be treated like scripture.
As for games art disscusion:
The 3d model designs are created by what? 3d artists. The music in games are created by what? Music artists. almost all games Hideo Kojima ever made are diffrent works put together to create something that fits together cohesively. If the individual works are art then why together would they stop being conciderd art? Does that mean he would not consider music/movies art? sounds confusing to me.
Excuse me if I sound agressive thats just the way I think.
Interesting read though. peace ;-)
+h mc I don't know, I suppose how you define art will deepen or shorten your expectations. If you discount poetry, stories, and film as art, then I suppose when you state "Art, as much as pretentious, self-proclaimed "artists" and "art connoisseurs " would like you to believe, is not experienced, it is observed," it suggests that you discount those? I mean, in what way do you differentiate between experienced and observed? To observe something IS an experience. A setting, like a museum, is the backdrop for people to "observe" "Art." This setting is an experience which people partake in to experience another, or their own, culture. I mean our language requires us to the word experience to describe how we as people interact with culture, be it our own or another's.
*VR CHAT !?*
VRchat is de whey
You do not know de whey
well that's not very nice
a meme can not be shit. You may think of it as shit but that is just your oppinion and your oppinion does not affect the meme in any way.
Gay people are just your usual people that have their own preferences. Why would you try to offend a normal person by calling them a normal person..?
The Game - its like your hair. It can't be explained
Brown colored grass on your body
Frazer Hatyai Loves Thailand that’s a shitty analogy...
51 likes, Subscribe to my channel, you will not regret it!!!!!!
Lol, I didn't wanna laugh, but I had to
Frazer Hatyai Loves Thailand What if your bald?
All I've seen from this video is random shit that you become moving around.
BrendanOriginal That is all the game is. It's mediocre.
From a technical perspective, yes, it can seem unimpressive. As a holistic experience, I found it to be brilliant. Talking about it will never do it justice, and it's not for everyone, but I was not disappointed with it and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
"what you are is changing all of the time but what it's doing is always the same"
The narrator makes it really therapeutic in my opinion.
Lol fr
Man that must have taken a RIDICULOUS amount of programming
nope
Just make a couple of classes and functions.
Yeh that hair looks crazy
He programed his own hair.
11swallowedinthesea exactly
This isn't VRchat
Just wait and 90% of gamers will turn it into another Battle Royale
Says the gut with the PUBG AVATAR
Jesus Galvan yeah but the thing isnthe game isnt that advanced so you cant really do anything
Gerald works for Vice now.
RFVC 600 lmao... Hey Arnold
RFVC 600 dope comment
AHHAHAHA
Oh wow. You can be a finite amount of shitty 3D models that can bounce around.
lol yep.
Sounds infinite.
Anomalous Cat it's actually sounds cool
Anomalous Cat exactly
Anomalous Cat Sorry for dissapointing you and not being able to create the entire UNIVERSE LIKE A GOD
I wonder what the micro transactions are going to be?
Foolish Doofus be a piece of dust
Foolish Doofus turd texture pack and the ability to be farts resonating at different frequencies
Who else laughed at that dudes hair 😆
yo it’s hilarious
to answer your question: Only white people laughed.
You probably all ready getting a bald spot
CJPlays123 everybody...lmao
SASHA SO i’m black and found it funny because i didn’t expect it whatsoever lol
Vice + hipster + hipster haircut = expected
It's some ironic shit a hipster would do. We're not in 1986
Hipster? Do people still use this term? Is complaining about hipsters still "a thing"? I think the last time I heard someone rant, or even say that term was like, four years ago? I mean, no offense intended, it's just a sudden realization...
twopercento no dude everyone hates vice I hated this I hate hipster bullshit the world isn't a zoo to be observed through hipster documentary films, do something, something specific, you're ruining the world.
Keith Welch Calm down there Mr. Perfect
giannski equals beetlejuice
I wonder how many psychedelic trips this guy had.
Dünna [Red Side] I've seen the sacred geometry bro it's like...so crazy I can't even explain
Manchelsea City true
I agree. To understand is quite possible and amazing. But first hand experience is something else.
Enough to make him feel like everything 😂😂
Dünna [Red Side] or how much Camus he's read. Dont need psychs to experience existential feelings, theres a whole sector of philosophy dedicated to it.
Dude weed lmao
3hot colours first thing I thought of was getting high and playing this now thinking that might not be such a good idea
skin19head69 Hahaha u mad bro?
Ned Gold kids that think they smoke weed piss me off.
I dont ever remember the effects of weed being anywhere near like this
yeah right this guy is doing psychadelics
Gonna eat shrooms and play this.
Graphics suck 0/10 -ign
MLZA graphics suc bad servers bad game. 7/10 ign
MLZA no the graphics dont suck
MLZA the game is immersive and brings you back to life, whilst boosting your IQ levels to oblivion! 10/10 gamespot.
Too much water
what I hate is the land animal animation, they could have tried a little more, the bugs and the flying things are fine though in animation
Guy sounds like no mans sky dev Lul
I thought the same exact thing lol!
Peter Molyneux 3.0
sweet little lies
Both Irish.
Holy shit this game looks boring as fk
Love this idea! Also love the vice guy. He is literally exactly what you would think someone whos works for vice would look like.
The cat sleeping on the projector was the best part of the video! 😄 Btw, interesting project.
So good to hear Alan Watts!
Johnny Vedmore lol... when I heard his voice I was like ... OMG ...
Johnny Vedmore it was sad to hear the documentary host refer to him as 'some dead guy' or whatever it was he said.
who is Alan watts?
KandaPanda yeah, that kind of pissed me off. Let's just call Jung some dead guy that had some cooky ideas about psychology while we're at it?
#cleanyourroomvice
Thehumanbrain a, he was a student of Karl Jung. Did many many many philosophy lectures and writings. Most of his lectures can be found on YT. If you like him, if suggest reading Jung and listening to Dr. Jordan B. Peterson, roughly speaking.
Why was the earth round?
Bottom Gamer because the earth is round
Earth is flat
Because if the earth were flat, cats would knock everything off the edge.
Wondered the same thing
because if it was square, then we'd know about it.
The fact they put Allan Watts makes me want to play it. Wow what an amazing idea.
Dude looks like Gerald from hey arnold
Lolo
Playboi Scotti
Deadass
Nice ! I can become a sperm tadpole again😃
The Observer except that, unfortunately. 😢
Life as a tadpole was so grand 😂
The Observer sure you want to worship the lord of light the price is your soul
again? you still are :P
Alfonso True true
bruh the Ice King is definitely Dan! may not be him entirely but his face😂
Can I play as a piece of crap? Because that mostly sums me up
you actually can.
I just want to know what it feels like to crush Dexter Thomas's tall haircut. I can imagine it would be so satisfying.
Max lol
I identify as first comment.
Killacamfoo O.G. This genuinely made me laugh hahaha
Killacamfoo O.G. 😂
Killacamfoo O.G. comment lives matter
Killacamfoo O.G. lmao
Man needs dat trim. Bush grown tooooooo high
the space exploration looks cool I've always wanted to play a game about space
He could have listen to Alan Watts more carefully. "What you are is always changing" is the opposite of his message.
What looks out our eyes -- sees and experiences all that changes, but itself never changes. What silently watched our life (thoughts, emotions, senses, feelings, occurrences, etc) from our earliest memory, silently watches still. Discovering you are what experiences, and not what is experienced, is called "awakening".
JamesThomas post-modernism at its finest. Take a deep idea and turn it into something the polar opposite of what it means, but then somehow actually make it hurt instead of help people.
This game is art. Earned my respect when I heard Alan Watts' voice.
?
I'm just wondering like did he have to pay like royalty to anything or like something like that or like not hmmm? 🤔 I also love Alan Watts hehe.
I know right
2:31 lmao thats how you go to the bathroom when its already peeking out
I cant believe it... Few years back i count find a single audio of A.Wats lectures, ant suddenly he's everywhere! Which is great...
0:40 there is a cat on the projector
What better place to be as a cat than on a projector? It has warmth and two chances of blowing the thing up: overheating and hair jams
Luuo73 or is the projecter under the cat
You cannot see the cat's face. So if it's on the projector and you cannot see it's face, it is both alive and dead simultaneously until the camera pans up and we can observe it.
How do we know its a cat and a projector?
Miami Coca Cola thats that "stoner philosophy". It irks me seeing comments like this on anything....well "hipster" lol. Its too open, youre not really asking anything, of course we dont know that its really a cat and projector and not models of them, but nothing is telling us that they arent real, and they arent important so why question it? You can ask the same thing about literally everything and anything, even your own existence....everyones existence really.... or everything surrounding everyone else that may or may not be existing.
Lol you ain’t fooling me all you do is move, but that liberal arts degree lingo almost had me...
Your simplistic. Keep your mind open
First word should be "You're" not "Your" ,':^>
Trust me I watch Rick and Morty.
TheWarBabe27
good call.
just another big ole attempt to overload the senses and cram BS down your throat.
btw
BS is just BS. It sucks the liberals are trying to hog it all and call it liberalism among other shit names.
TheWarBabe27 found the uneducated one
Hopefully an AI can be implemented and improved overtime to do more in the game other than "move".
1:20 look at all the baby lions doing summer salts
When you come home for Christmas dinner I bet your mom gives you that disappointed look.
The game doesn't look fun though...
Alan Watts narrated game? Oh yeah that's gonna be trippy as hell :D
yep smoke some weed and then play this lol then maybe do a low dose of salvia just to not go full trip
This game looks dreadfully boring.
BroToPro I'm good on salvia but I definitely would like to try playing it stoned or tripping on acid or shrooms.
People keep talking about his "Afro"......Don't hate because you're hair don't define gravity naturally
High top fade*
Facts💯🔥
Neither does his. It's just teased up.
Authorize King Dude looks like a fucking Eraser-Mate, how can you defend that fuzz on his head?
he's appropriating african culture with his hair. he needs to stop. #BLACKS LIFE MATTERS
It's awesome that Stoop kid welcomed Gerald into his home.
*"You can be everything."*
*"Can I be a rapist?"*
*"No."*
*"LIAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!"*
This is unapologeticly hipster..
Jesus, people use the word hipster to mean anything eccentric or artsy these days
What makes it “hipster” out of interest?
I want to play this so bad! I love original out of this world things like this! Alan Watts binge commence!
Interviewer: So how do you explain the game?
Me: Yeah before that, how do you explain that hair?
An old boring game is news now?
right. Vice is trash
MrFF7FF7 I wouldn't call it a game
Joe Bill the creator himself calls it a game
SAIKO Well yeah of course he would. He wants you to buy it.
Joe Bill so then it's a game
Hope its not empty promises like No Mans Sky.....
Phil Gamer
You mean that game that did a 180 and gets pretty much positive reviews now?
Raymond Pelt how much does Meth cost?
sad boi
IDK, Google that shit.
sad boi it’s actually expensive stuff you’re lucky to find under 30 dollar grams
Raymond Pelt
so no man's sky is good now?
0:40
Reporter: Explain the game
Dude: I cant explain the game i can *describe* the game
Reporter: Ok then describe it
Dude: I cant do that
Reporter: *explains game*
ALLAN WATTS!!
was hoping somebody noticed
I'm gonna get this just because of Alan Watts
Life Byte Headass
same
Or you could just listen to him... Just a thought.
no offense but alan watts was a hack. check out dr jason lisle
Rudy Fisher tnx for the suggestion, I'll check him out
His hair is a joke right?
0:39, so this is what Gerald from Hey Arnold has been up to since the show ended
"What you are is changing all the time but what it's doing is always the same" really true
The game actually sucks ass
it's supposed to be a joke
Blockistic how?
who says that acid can't be 'deep'?
exactly what I was thinking when he said it...
Great game to smoke a blunt and make ur brain go on a trip
" As significant as Everything Else " - That is 🔑
I want to be scotrum
Fahim Zia your wish is not my command
The game is super fun for the narration bits, but that's about the only fun. After that it gets pretty boring.
Yup, it's a great introduction and visualization of Alan watt's concepts and ideas, but as a video game ?
falls fuckin flat
Damn, I want this game, this seems like the you play to just chill, relax and explore
But can you be Kermit the frog holding two samurai swords while smoking a blunt?
Random google+ user Mod/DLC of that would be sick 👀
Bet you can't be a attack helicopter
Pure Memz U get that from the dlc lootbox
I thought it was called *ROBLOX*
*Powering imagina- I mean everything*
Can I be Hank hill
Lmfao
That’s dlc
Wtf wrong with the louis viton ad
This video makes this game seem so deep, dark, and mysterious and beautiful... But I've seen Pewdiepie play this before and trust me those previous stated adjectives go far out the window LOL
How do you explain the game? HOW DO YOU EXPLAIN THAT 2 FOOT HAIRCUT INTERVIEWER????
"And it will be never when it's over hahahaha" That's a very sinister laugh.
"How do you explain the game?"
How do you explain your hair 😂
Looks boring AF but idk could be fun
The Holytacoman if multiplayer it could be like a less fun Gary's mod on console though
The Holytacoman be high
Seems you didn't discovered drugs yet.
this the kinda shit u play when youre on LSD or other shit
BRILLIANT!
Can I be Trump and make gaming greaT again???
0:37 well that was a surprise lol
Stuff like this makes me question everything in life
That Afro looks ridiculous
And what do you look like?
Copulaxoxi Ranbooi a hydrogen atom.
Bret Harley looks like the kid from Hey Arnold
Copulaxoxi Ranbooi I look ridiculous too, but my ridiculousness wasn't a choice.
I think it looks awesome :D!!!
I really don't want to play this!
then don't ..... no ones forcing you
yes good because I'm not going to lol
Ben Dover yeah good for you
Ben Dover
LMFAOOOOOOOOO!!!
*Smokes Blunt*
"Yo what if you could be anything"
I'm really fascinated by this game. This is like a walking simulator but it's so different.
0:41 My man is over there looking like a brand new pencil eraser with that hair. He needs to put that to work and erase the mistake of making this episode.
.
3:25 "It takes the game from feeling like a weird acid trip into something that's a lot deeper... and just... real."
How do you sound so damn insincere? It's genuinely impressive. That pause, dear sweet ghost of Murgatroyd, so... phoney.
That weird, affected pretension of gravity when you speak, it's unavoidable. Your country is saturated by it. You've reached peak prevalence.
Help.
Magnus Danger Magnus k
Barber: How do u want your hair done?
Him: Up...
Barber: Say no more.
1:20 They see me rolling...
THIS IS EVERYTHING!
Bhavikh and nothing 😉
This project is simply awesome, imagine this creator making a game based on Rene Descartes’ philosophy. That would be so amazing!!!
Can people stop talking about the reporter’s hair but can we appreciate this amazing game!
When you hear Alan Watts and jump up in happiness. Damn me and my philosophy interests.
This is awesome. Just BE.
89 Til Infinity didn't need a videogame yo tell us that
Could I be a gay dancing cupcake?
with titties?
So if i can be anything, can i control that guys hair?
It actually looks like an adult Gerald and Arnold talking.
