My favorite part is when you reset the game fully to replay, the canon explaination is comedy asks tragedy to start from the top and retell the story, which made me feel a lot better about restarting for the achievement
That's so sweet 🥺
Love, how it's also color coded. Like each protagonist has their own, and when they meet, they add to the others color scheme. With the true endings having every four of them.
Oh that's why the True Endings looked so different! I noticed the fact they obviously each have their own colors but not that they added to eachother after meeting. Thanks for bringing that up
tysm for this observation, i didnt notice it before
Ikr? When I saw colored ending for the first time (not true ending yet) I was like "heeey this is important for damn sure"
IT SUCH A COOL DETAIL WOW
mmm i was super suspicious about the last slide in the credits with the pink sky and purple hill 👀
This is actually one of the most charming short indie games I've seen recently. You can tell this was made very passionately.
Short.....
@@Horseshoe_Crab 1 32 is short
@@gwenzy750 sorry if I messed up somehow with just a small comment. (Also it was edited down from original time)
@@Horseshoe_Crab For what it's worth, I stopped watching Mark's play through when I realized I wanted to play the game myself, and I just 100%ed it on Steam and it took me 100 minutes flat, so it's not edited down THAT much
@@LilacVenus yeah I know it’s not super long but an indie game but for a small indie game I thought it was long. (Hope that clears up my reply)
First 30 seconds of the game: “WARNING: BLOOD, VIOLENCE, AND STRONG LANGUAGE”
The ending: Literally the most heartwarming thing I’ve ever seen
It did say that it meant to be lighthearted so, it makes sense
They're kinda adorable little peoples
if the ending of this game is sweet, the other games by this dev is a 20 ton delivery truck full of powered sugar... and thats why i love this dev
edit: i actually havent played any of nomnomnami's games recently enough to remember if thats actually true but if i can trick someone into buying their other games (which they will inevitably enjoy) i think that would be a win. Plus i feel the exact same as that review shown in the beginning of the video and bought both a game i had already played for free on itch io (her tears were my light)and bought this game a long time ago to support them, although i only played it now so i could watch this video, so the more money i can help get funneled towards this dev the better.
@@cinnamoncat8950 i played "Her tears were my light" recently. It was good!
wait till you see Oneshot
Anyone else see that when a true ending is found, the color scheme combines all the colors of each of the storylines.
Wow- you are so observant it's amazing :0
@@inkcat3189 sarcasm?
and something else i noticed is that it does do that at all the endings,but mianly features the color of the character you first chose (or maybe not,i cant remember)
Man, that’s deep
@@Virgolish you're completely right!!
The song thooo. "share in my missery for all eternity"
"For all your tragadies I'll write happy endings"
Beautiful
I don't know why but I teared up and cried at the last verse of the song. Just how pure the love is between Tragedy and their lover. That Tragedy's love let's Tragedy be her, writing what she wants but also be able to bring her happiness and bring more light and life into their lives, writing happy endings for Tragedy. No matter if they share in misery they also will share in happy endings, together.
And I'm a sucker for happy endings and I think hearing that last verse I just knew that Tragedy's lover was singing and knew they would be able to be happy, no matter what comes their way.
Just Beautiful, over an hour of investment for that unexpected payoff. Magnificently beautiful.
Thats what i said
The best part : if you don't get every single bad ending you wouldnt even see tragedy ending. And the closing theme ends at : "it's my misery for all eternity"
This song (and the game to an extent) definitely had Vocaloid vibes and I wonder if that was on purpose. The mood was similar to many of the vocaloid songs people made and the characters from both things sort of remind me of each other (probably because each one has characters that are distinctly associated with a color and I happened to listen to a lot of the tragic AMV's for Vocaloid). For me, the reference alluded to when times were more simple. I felt that much more drawn to TRAGEDY's story in the end because I could relate to the pain of growing apart from people and more simple times. Even though it didn't happen as tragically for me as it did for them, the pain of stuff like that is inevitable. And much like our protagonist shows, you learn that sometimes you have to work hard and persevere to make things work out despite the odds.
No when it said “For all you tragedies I’ll write happy endings” I was like we play as Comedy. We are the other half and then at the end I was like YES I knew it!
Game: "You must be as much of a masochist as me!"
Mark: *"And I took that personally."*

tragedy is the maiden, and comedy is the overlord. ...ironically beautiful, i think 🥲
I’m unsure but maybe it’s the opposite, hard to tell when in the end everything is always sad.
Comedy? How did you get that name? I don't remember it being mentioned
@@EmilysLovelyBakery theatre is often represented with 2 masks, one called tragedy and the other called comedy, since tragedy is a character in this game and it also takes place at a theater it can be guessed the character tragedy speaks to at the end of this video is probably called comedy.
@@RoseDeleca ohh alright thank you!
@@RoseDeleca Not only that but during the ending, they say the MC (In this case Comedy) said while talking to tragedy that they were intent on making things a Good ending so that's another way to show that they are Comedy.
The moment of clarity that the player was "Comedy" hit with the final line of the credits song and I was eagerly waiting for Mark to figure it out since it didn't seem like the game was going to tell you.
I had a feeling the player is comedy as soon as he found his first letter
I mean I think he figured it out, at least partially, when he learnt the narrator was called 'Tragedy'
1:01:06 He does figure it out lol

It was nice to see that markiplier genuinely enjoyed this game. sometimes he sounds exasperated having to read so much dialogue, but I think this one was just sweet

Fun fact!: Your health at the final battle (mark's face cam was blocking it) is the number of endings you've collected. Since Mark had got all 41 when facing through it, he had 41 HP
41 likes.. it’s perfect

"you must be as much of a masochist as me!"
*mark stares in discontent at the audience, knowing what everyone is thinking.*
The end music at the credits honestly made me cry, it’s beautiful, so is this game
same, i'm here at 11:56 pm about to go to bed after finishing this video, and i'm here trying not to cry over it since i hate crying before going to sleep 😭
God i'm just crying i can't
the full soundtrack is on spotify!
Yess I love it!
I literally had to find and save this song. Such a pure song for a cute game 😭
The look on marks face when he realized the voice he had given to tragedy did not quite match what was behind the mask 😂
that's exactly what I was thinking lol
He's just like; "God.. God damn. This happens to me all the time." *Immediately switches voice.*
Gotta admit, if Tragedy just looked identical to the player that voice would work almost perfectly.
And.. That'd also lead to a more insane ending, and another bad ending, because that'd be oddly fitting. Almost in a slightly morbid way.
In the end tragedy was just a future version of yourself somehow. You're just in the loop forever now. Just as you're about to get a happy ending, SIKE-
Fitting end for Bad End theater. Kind of? A bit too morbid for.. Anyone's tastes, really. But naturally, that would never work for what the story was actually going for.
Honestly I think a few games have already done that, though.. Quite a few..
(INB3 little nightmares 2)
@@grodygibsonlcd8038 sweet ending. Not morbid. In meh opinion
id like to think that tragedy had a voice modifer, so that we wouldnt know her true identity by her voice
holy you're right
I'm not sure I've ever encountered a game that felt so cliche, yet, simultaneously, deeply original.
it just uses cliche in a way that feels... natural. it uses cliche perfectly, and while i could predict the ending(s), i was still emotional at the very end. really beautiful.
well said
Cliche is cliche for a reason. Powerful tools in writing.
I think that's called being "campy" lol
@@tylerholley9823 lmao, I suppose so.
Before the last conversation with tragedy and seeing her end I was almost disappointed. I really felt like something was missing, something that tragedy's end provided. I've noticed that intentionally creating that feeling that one loose end is yet to be tied up is incredibly hard to do, as is creating a feeling of closure when you put that feeling into your audience. Incredible story over all, and congratulations to the writer for pulling it off so well.
I agree, very few stories/games do it well.
I was kinda the opposite. The ending for me was the most disappointing part. She just... appears. As your main character that you've been playing as. Doesn't really feel like there's any stakes to anything. Loved the game up until that point though. Props to the writer for almost making it work
@@somarafa9998 yeah, but what stakes were there other than the characters or having a happy ending?
@@somarafa9998 I agree. I was hoping for something like Tradgey takes off her mask and relieves she's just like the player and then maybe we put in a comedy mask or something. The ending felt kind of... wrong. She just appeared.
It's nearing a month since this video came out and the ending still gives me chills and makes me tear up. This game was so lovingly and wonderfully crafted, it brings so much joy to my heart
Agreed but it came out 10 months ago??
@@davv6628 ahhaha
If something is nearing a year
@@davv6628 Heck! You're right! I meant to say a year, but ended up saying a month. Oops!
@That Me either!
What I love about this is at the end:
"Tragedy ends"
This is in both a literal and figurative cense as it was the end of Tragey's story and the end of the tragedy.
Or maybe I'm looking into this too much
I had the same feeling, and would've commented if I didn't see yours. I didn't cry the whole video, but somehow those two words broke me
Well the simple placement of the s makes a difference. Tragedy's end has a different meaning then tragedy ends.
you must be part of the game theory community.
Nah bro, I think it was intentional. This created was a genius. That word choice was so... freeing. It was great.
@LexMcDufflePants agreed.
The tiny little detail, the "closed" sign on the theater at the end of the game, makes this really feel like a true ending, a complete one.
Edit: HOLY ALMOST 2K LIKES
You also can't play anymore after that unless you reset the game. So it really does leave some finality to the ending
Tbh I didn’t like the battle with tragedy because of how much it assimilated undertale true pacifist run
Most people when faced with only bad endings: I’ll never give up trying to get the happy ending I desire!
Mark: you have no idea how BONEHEADED I AM!
Two sides, same coin.
Man, i really am falling in love with these characters. I don't even know their names
Fr what I'm saying. I feel like drawing all of them... for some reason especially the underling.
@@potatofreak6680 Omg I'm so glad I'm not the only one
@@potatofreak6680 i rlly like the underling, they are a very cute little gremlin
The underling, the overlord, the hero and the maiden
I like how, at the final bit, "Tragedy's End" can also be interpeted as the end of tragedy in the game since every single character got a happy ending they were satisfied with.
Wait is there any other way to interpret that?
@@staticchimera44 merely as the revealing of “tragedy’s” story and tragedy getting their happy ending. Easy to miss the detail that it’s truly an end to all tragedy. So basically could be interpreted as the character’s ending or the ending of that emotional feeling itself
@@silentreaper5805 Ahhh I see. I always saw it as just Tragedy's character end but that makes sense.
Something that I realized: The maiden's (the "maiden" at the end) face when she hugged the "overlord" was showing her crying but with a smile on her face (the exact face that the mask shown when she was Tragedy). I think this symbolizes that her tragedy led her to her true ending
it's also the same face at 16:04!! when she tries to save the overlord but dies in the fire
16:04, 1:15:36, and 1:30:06 all have the same face. i love the consistency of this, it's these small details that really help the characters shine through and reveal their true selves regardless of the form they are presented in
Okay this makes more sense now, I thought at the part as tragedys mask fell off, why maiden? Could also be overlord, you know, they are a demon and thats what comes to my mind that a demon would do tragic stories rather than a maid. But I guess it does not matter that much, because the faces of comedy and tragedy are not really the overlord and maiden, they just represent it like in the story
" you cant help but compare my face to the maiden's "
…….
I have a cute little fact here-the flower in Tragedy’s hair seems to be a crocus, which is one of the flowers representing sapphic love as Sappho herself wrote about them in her poems 🥰
so she does love the maiden!!
I love that :,) this game is so cute, and the metaphor makes so much sense now that I think about it.
OH MY GOD THATS SO ADORABLE
That's so sweet 😳💕
eyo
i couldn't recall the amount of times i've rewatched this. it's *that* beautiful. that "take all my money" review was too relatable. this was (and always will be) my favorite series of bad endings. i never loved bad endings until this game from a year ago showed up.
I feel like this game teaches a very good lesson. There can never be a truly tragic story without happiness. Otherwise the tragedy loses its meaning. There can never be a happy ending without tragedy. Otherwise the happiness is undriven and unappreciated. Poetically, the stories that lead to the happy ending are tragic and only the tragedy of the death of the characters and sadness of the stories do the two find each other and end happily
Why yes I have read, hero of a thousand faces
I'm unsure whether this is a reference or not but I do know that it's true in a way. All the tragedies in the world, couldn't mean anything with happiness. The same is true if the roles were reversed as well! And now I feel I've stated something blatantly obvious. Rip, bad ending.
Not really trying to reference this, but you ever seen that twilight zone episode, basically a murderer dies and is sent to heaven, he is given everything he wants, wins all the games he plays and gets all the women he wants, eventually he gets bored and dispondant, he asks the “angels” what hell is like and if he can go there, the angel reply: who’s to say they’re not already there
@@pigoverlord8250 sounds like pretty fun , or at least, like a different version of life.

I love how Mark was about to give his final opinion on the game, and when the singing started, He stopped talking immediately. It truly shows how much he loved this game, even before he saw the true ending.
Edit: Also I'll mention he didn't say A THING during the song. He made sure the song was over before speaking.
Honestly loved that part as well. It's such a small gesture but shows how much he respects the effort put into the game.
I know right, just giving the spotlight to the song out of respect
There are so many people on this platform who would have talked over it, and not really cared. Markiplier is a class act on a whole 'nother level.
He would do the same to every game which makes him an even more respectful gamer. Waiting till experience everything the game has to offer until he takes his part
I just appreciate it because the singing is as nice.
I love the song in general. The way it starts with no vocals as a welcome. Then for the bad ending it ends with only “tragedy” then the true one with “happiness” side of the song and it ends with Ive missed instead of I miss is just so amazing even if it’s a small detail. I rewatched and still love that fact amazing game and will rewatch again.
This game tells a story that was told a thousand times, but it tells this story in such a unique and special way. I loved this game very, very much
How so? Ya mean the story about a romance that was impossible or just the we going trough all the endings of the game?
@@alsparkproductions7849 i’m sure they meant how the story has mostly similar endings and how each time something changes. Like an anomaly!
@@alsparkproductions7849 probably about the cliche hero saving the maiden who was kidnapped by an evil demon overlord and also the underling is there. It’s a very cliched story premise, but there are little nuances and character complexities which makes this story more unique

@@CrownedYeti the song was so fantastic at the end, it gave me so much goosebumps
Why am I crying at the ending like I figured after seeing the letters we played as comedy and that we were here to reunite with tragedy, but I wasn't expecting it to be so sweet and adorable and gay. This game is fricking amazing. I laughed, I cried, it moved me, Bob.
And gay💀😂 that got me
This game reminds me of "No-one has to die" it's basically a lighter version of the game where... no one had to die. And it gets solved via the same time fuckery that caused everyone to die anyways. Except this story actually MEANS something more human than time fuckery, it's about Tragedy that makes sense, natural, and it hits closer to home because of it... and the cutesy artstyle really adds on it for some reason. Thank you Mark.
I am going to try that game! I hope other UA-camrs have played the game you mentioned.
Interesting.
Guess what video game I'll be watching next
The reason the art adds to it is, IMO, the fact that it grounds us more to the game. We feel more, human, humane, around cutsy things like dogs than horrifiying demons. Would you sympathize with a dog or a demon more?

Everyone's talking about the underling or the relationship between the overlord and the maiden/tragedy and comedy but the hero has such good writing. To not know what will get you accepted or successful and force your future into misery and confusion because of other people's ideals and beliefs.
Think about it, the only time the hero is doing what he wants is when he's making a costume. Either the maiden, the crowd or his "duty and legacy" seem to always decide for him beforehand. I bet a lot of people can relate to that.
A lot of guys can relate to that.
It's subtle, but there. You have a duty to yourself, and what makes you happy. Being yourself is the best way to be, your best self.
the endings that got me the most were the ones where the hero fails without dying, and he questions what being a hero truly means. it reminds me of one of my favorite sayings: “you either die the hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.”
He’s happening making costumes right? Hear me out, he makes wedding dresses for the maiden and overlord. The Underling and be the ring barer or marry the two and they can also get an outfit tailored by the Hero
@@tacossmiley yes
That ending almost got me in tears, this was such a beautiful game,, the art, the story; everything. It was very sweet
Tragedy's ending at the very end is pretty much my entire story, losing someone in a way I would not like to say, to starting something that would eventually lead us together after a few years.
Truly warms my heart
This is why I love Mark, He gaves smaller game creators the attention they need to keep making their games and updating them, The same said about Poppy Playtime, I'm sure not many people would even know what Poppy playtime was if not for Markiplier, Keep up the good work!
Nami actually has a pretty decently sized following! Her work is amazing and I deeply love all of them. She's a fantastic storyteller and creates lovely characters. I really reccomend checking out her other works!
I'm hoping he will play Purrfect Apawcalypse. It has the same style as this game, and its pretty good

a truly fitting double meaning of an ending for an equally as artistic game. This is a true masterpiece. also cudos on the voices lol
Hits you right in the feels
I really love that someone else noticed that. It doesn’t say tragedy’s true ending because its officially an ending for the character we marked as tragedy but also an end to the tragedy that took place for the game to happen. Absolutely beautiful.
is tragedy's end based on a true story? maybe from the game creator's experience or something? I've been trying to find something online but I don't see anything.
@@orihallmark Apparently the creator had a contriverisal relationship earlier in her life which will lead us towards an argument about morality (and I will not discuss about). I believe Tragedy's true end is likely to be based off a real story, but despite the apparent "good" end where Tragedy is reunited with her lover in the final story... I think her earlier comments leading into the final story indicate her story didn't have a good ending.

Mark shouldn't have apologized for his own narrative, his voices are really what made the video for me, I loved this game, the ending was really sweet, thank you for playing it Mark. :)

Let me just push that to 1k
I’ve discovered who the real antagonist of this game is; A. The stupid old man that keeps saying that the maiden was brainwashed. B. The demon guards
Edit: Thanks for the likes
You could say... the community?
Yes
Seems like truly ignorance was the antagonist all along
I mean……. The antagonist could be the player. Forcing the characters to suffer over and over again.
@@itsthejavavoid But if it weren't for the player, the characters would've never gotten their true endings
listening to the song again after seeing tragedy's end/story is absolutely heartbreaking and it just makes the song 10x more beautiful and sad
I’d argue the bad end version is even more heartbreaking, especially if you get the true ending first
Agreed! I was also surprised to see the SynthV bank Eleanor sing it! As a Vocaloid fan, it really made me appreciate it being used in games as well! Such a cute little game. Might try it for myself even if I watched play throughs already
It’s too wholesome……. I love how mark knew that the ending would be more wholesome and it genuinely made me cry…. Damn
Mark, having unlocked two traits: there must be two more
Also Mark, when he discovers a fourth trait: *suprised pikachu face*
This video is very reflective of how Mark is:
When he messes up, he makes it hilarious.
He unconsciously gravitates towards his own style of voice acting.
Sticks around till the end of the game if he is attached/committed/enjoying the game.
He always acts to his morals or amusement.
I enjoyed watching this collection of stories just as much as Mark did.
The underling is my favorite character. Also I am so impressed at how they managed to make one singular storyline into so many different strings of in depth events.
I love how easy the underling is to draw
They’re so freaking Scrunkly
Thank you
i like the maiden because of her arc :D
i know all of them have some sort of arc but the maiden's is my favie
They're cool bt if i see one more person call them scrunkly or anything like that i WILL kms
1:25:45 bro liked the music so much he just shut up and listened 😭😭
I know it's nice I got to listen to it
Honestly didn't expect such a heart warming ending
I'd be lying if I said It didn't make me tear up a bit
same honestly, i started tearing up and had to quickly wipe away my tears.
I started sobbing because it reminded me of the girl I was in love with in high school, any time a gay love story ends with them not being able to be together because of family it hits too close to home
@@skystygian aw I’m so sorry, hope you’re doing well ❤️
I'm not crying! You're crying!
just a bit, it's not like I'm sobbing or anythin
Mark: "Humans are scary"
Also Mark: "Speaky Doomen"
Edit: OMG SO MANY LIKES TY? 😭💀
@Savetion 100k UA-cam GOD what....
@Savetion 100k UA-cam GOD wtf
Where was that part in the vid cause I don't think I was paying attention
the bots have gone too far
actually they’ve crossed the line a long time ago but this is a new record
“Speeky dooman” now sits at number one of the best things I have ever heard Mark say. I was crying with laughter.
Ill never forget "you've gotta keep your count aselfable!" (Intense mentality anguish ensues)
"Speeky dooman" just makes me think of a talking shit monster
Sammeeeee
Same!!
@Beast v2🔥 stfu that’s completely not ok to say. And you don’t even have any content
When listening to the song again you can tell that only the first verse is sung by tragedy. The second half is sung by joy/comedy.
It’s so cute 🥺
1:25:27 (singing starts around 1:25:43), if anyone wants to listen again
Is there somewhere else I can listen to this bc I absolutely love this little song
But my fair friends, you forget, this story is still told after it has happened. Spoken by history.
@@elainabowersox8964 yeah, the creator of the game has a UA-cam channel where the entire soundtrack is uploaded. They're called "NomNomNami"
Actually the part where "She" sings is just Hope/Joy/Comedy throughout. She was drawn by this theater, had an interest from the stories it give, "for all bad endings i shall write happy endings" this is the secret after obtaining everything and then she reveals herself to her
This one killed me inside, especially toward the ending. Relationship not being supported by family and community hits close to home. My anxious and deprecating thoughts consistently making me expect and imagine the worst ending for my boyfriend and I. But despite these worries, he's always there. Always working to fight my dark thoughts. I think he's my happy ending.
that's so sweet
Keep living your happiest man. We’re all rooting for you
Aw I can absolutely relate with you with this. I had the same thoughts and expecting the worst attitude for the longest time when I was dating my ex. The relationship ended for reasons outside of the issues you’re highlighting, but regardless during that time we were dating it really felt like it was us vs the world, especially because they’d been brought up in such a shitty household and I had really bad anxiety about how my family would feel about our relationship. It was a really sweet albeit tumultuous time in my life, and this game outlines the kinda emotions felt in such a time oh so perfectly. If anything I just wish I embraced the highs and lows as much as I could when they happened; it was all beautiful looking back at it. Regardless, I wish you and your partner all the best in your lives. Love is a magical thing and I’m so happy for you guys :)
Why you make me cri 😖😖
I hope you guys are still doing well! Stories like yours keep me going
1:16:36 the best moment. "You must be as much of a masochist as me!" Then the face mark makes and the noise he makes and how it goes full screen on his face it was so perfect and cute😂
Bruh cute? You're cringe he just looked at the camera
@@Kiabeta bruh, they can think hes cute lmao
@@Kiabeta Why not?
@@katzgawrgoredrinker0620 Wdym why not? I called him cringe
Why mark is not cute?
I finished this game myself today after being VERY thorough, got all the endings for the actors and saw mine and Tragedy's Good End... the game was way more than I expected, it touched on themes about writing, roles, destinies, different perspectives in REALLY creative and subtle ways! I was very pleasantly suprised! And THE ENDING... it was soooo satisfying, I was a little worried it would be lackluster, but no, it feels like a sendoff that goes above and beyond... I love this game. So, so, much...
ok now i actually finished watching the video, daaaw im glad he enjoyed it so much :)
I love everything about this honestly. The whole experience and the enthusiasm that Mark shows. I definitely knew that Tragedy made these stories since she lost the one she loved but I didn't expect that they both represented each opposites, the overlord and the maiden. But I'm glad that they did, cuz honestly I was rooting for both of them to have their own happy ending and this thought made the ending much sweeter for me.
Me,,,, Tragedy: Can relate
I've been hearing the ending song for Bad End Theater for probably a year or so now on Spotify, and I've always enjoyed it, so seeing this video, I knew I had to watch it, and I'm blown away by everything. The creator did an amazing job on this game, and you did a great job sharing it, as always.
I love how the ending is "TRAGEDY'S END"
This is such a great game
The song is so good, the end where it was like "my darling" sounded so wistful.. would love to listen it on repeat
It needs to be on Spotify ASAP 😩
You can find a play list of the OST on the developers UA-cam channel
NomnomNami. You can even buy downloaded music as steam DLC as a way to help support the developer.
Me: Not expecting to watch a full hour and a half long video about a game I've never heard of.
Also me: Crying at the end of it.
Stop I don't need to called out in the comments more
I WAS TEARING UP AT THE END
Bawling
Hey neighbor, don’t mean to be rude but did your bath flood or something?
Is leaking down here.
Can we just stand and applause for Mark's good voice acting HAHAHA
This was such a rollar coaster, i loved the fact the maiden and the overlord got their happy ending.
same ugh i want a relationship like them LOLL
Well it's not necessarily the maiden and overlord more like the maiden and overlord are characters based off of tragedy and the player but yes still very nice ending
@@CowKirbo sorry, thats what i meant lolz
When you think about it, nobody here was evil...or at least evil without reason. The Underling was manipulated by his 'friends', presumably because the Overlord was a bad boss, who in turn just wanted to live a peaceful life. The Hero chooses unwise decisions at times....ironically more than the other 3, because he lived a false reality, taking "The clothes make the man" all too literally. The Maiden was just bored. The villagers burnt her in fear of the demons...actually come to think of it, it was because of the overlord's father. So technically he was responsible for the conflict in the story. Tragedy? Why, she's just making and telling stories. A game that gives you a depressing concept and yet being one of the sweetest games I've ever seen, absolutely heartwarming. This was a masterpiece of a game.
Absolutely 💯 agree the whole "nobody is completely evil and nobody is good" has never been told better
Copy this comment UA-cam KILLED THE COMMENTS
Tragedy was able to make it sweet because of the same traits assigned to the characters in the boss battle. It's like Hamlet meets Romeo and Juliet meets Wizard of Oz
Hey, the game only uses they/them for the underling! This is a good analysis and I can tell you really enjoy the game, so I'm sure it was an honest mistake, but with the LGBT theme of it I think it's important to respect the proper pronouns for the characters in it as well
Congrats you figured out the entire point of the game.
Mark: Cries because he can't read
Lixian: "*Maybe if you finished college*"
Fucking savage
@Savetion 100k UA-cam GOD WTF? THIS BOT IS FUCKED UP

Gosh, same here! 😭🥺
My emotional defenses became the castle after that wonderful song. It wasn't a happy ending, it was a beautiful one...

The ending of this game has me openly sobbing every time I play it/watch someone play, its so beautiful honestly, I love this game
it got me crying at the end. This was a journey that I thoroughly enjoyed.
me to man..me to
Even tho im not a person that cries alot, this game hit me like a truck.
same.

The ending touched my heart. I KNEW THE MAIDEN AND THE OVERLORD HAD A CONNECTION!!!
I KNOW RIGHT AAAAAAAAA
@@TheHuffmanator yes
Yes and? What’s wrong with being lesbian or gay homophobic
@@abigaildavis4093 well…… that last one may have a few issues….
@@abigaildavis4093 you missed a comma
I can safely say this was the first game that moved me to tears. at the reveal of tragedy’s partner I started tearing up. I simply did not realize how much I connected myself to the characters until then. I have to get this game myself now
Agreed
For me, this is the second one, with the first honor going to Mark's blind playthrough of __Presentable Liberty__.
I wasn't even half through Mark's playthrough when I decided I want to finish the game myself... worth it!
I love that music in the credits. Comedy discovering the theater and thinking of Tragedy. Then the actual ending, amazing
1:16:31
"You must be as much of a masochist as me!"
Mark: [stares at the camera]
I honestly kinda like that he recognizes this meme going around!
@Savetion 100k UA-cam GOD god damm these bots really do say the worst crap
@@DarkReaper-oj2nd i know right. Its like if Mobile game ads and the Discount Dark web had a weird fucked up baby.
Tragedy: you know, i'm something of a masochist myself
Hes been aware of it for absolutely ages
Yeah, because that's all it is. Just a meme. No real masochism here. /lh
I audibly "awed" so many times at the end, I'm not a mushy gushy person, but the ending was beautiful and I loved it.
Memento Mori!
@@Sheep. Memento Mori
I never fond over many lgbt relationships but good god this was something…beautiful
@@augustuzmoon3814 same. Ive never been interested in them because they felt so forced and shoved into the show for representation rather than for the story. But this game is the first time ive ever shipped a lgbtq couple they were so cute together.
I hope that doesnt sound homophobic ive just never seen a lgbtq relationship done right.
@@pinkestelle558 Have you watched the owl house? It has great rep and actual relationship development between the LBGTQ characters
I’ve just been going through Mark’s series (Raft, Phasmaphobia, The Forest, and Unforgiving: A Northern Hymn.) I just cannot get over how much I adore watching this man play games, and get scared, and banter with friends.
Edit: I have seen a LOT more than just these series, these are just the ones I’ve been rewatching recently. Y’all are so sweet to recommend more to me!
Alarming, isn't it? When you're aware of your curious obsessions? I'm right here beside you.
I’m sure mark would not want this
I started with his Prop Hunt series. If you haven't seen them it should look it up.
ok?
@No 🔥 No u. Why haven’t you been abrtded yet?
1:00:32 I just realized the quote from tragedy’s “love” is in the same color as the overlords sprite, she was giving us clues the whole time
Also 1:22:09 tragedy says they could lose only when the player brings the overlord, not the others, even when you bring the maiden she basically insults herself
Nice catch!
in the ending, the two characters' text box colours are the same as the overlord and maiden, nice touch to draw paralells between the two couples :)
I honestly thought Tragedy was being sarcastic here
@@kaorifujimiya1358 Yeah, it kinda does
Humans: “Demons are merciless and savage creatures!”
Also humans: *set an innocent maiden on fire*
Meanwhile, demons: *set an innocent overlord on fire*
@@occultnightingale1106 so they are the same. Lol not exactly tho so I don’t care about any corrections you spectators might have
Of course, Humans ☕
@@thatguy1056 ...what correction was there? The whole point of my comment was that, while the humans are pretty much the same, they’re also not wrong. It’s an amusing observation, not a correction.

Hello everybody my name is Markiplier
I feel like the whole game was an incredible build up to just being told a very real story of someone’s life. Truly amazing, there need to be more games like this and I’m definitely playing through this one myself. It deserves the love.
aww man the ending made me tear up a little. Also the song during the credits was pretty.
I love how the first part of the end song sounds like Tragedy's part while the second part sounds like it's the Lost Love's part of the song
dude, the ending gave me tears. this game is very well-made, and i just want to appreciate it's existence rn. my glasses actually fell down while crying oh god.
profile pic checks out
i just got done watching it like 10 minutes ago and i’m still sobbing haha
Me: "ah sweet, all bad endings"
Also me: *cries over the only good ending*
Same
Sammeeeee
Yees, same!
Butter make rule 34 BUT fast
what is the timestamp
1:17:49 Ah, don't you know? To give clothes to someone who has none, to me THAT would make you a hero in your own way.
Honestly, Mark indulging in the voices just made the scenes all the more fun.
