      @Broomer52 22 години тому +19

      I think it's pretty metaphorical.
      SPOILERS: The game is all about perspective and everything in it is filtered by how you think about it. Even the Princess is a Princess because that's how your character views her. Having her chained to a wall and having to talk to her, reason with her and free her through mutual understanding or through death speaks for everything happening between you and her

    The Prisoner my beloved. Consent queen.
    "That's pathetic." "I never said I wasn't." is one of my favourite Narrator interactions. Regardless of wheter he's right or wrong, he has been nothing but suspicious, insulting, and generally unpleasant so far. It came as a surprise and earned him a lot of sympathy points from me.
    I am so, so grateful that you're playing this. I wasn't sure you would and I certainly wasn't expecting it *now*. I could not possibly verbalize how important this game is to me, and you sharing your psychological expertise on top of that is all I ever needed. Know that the game only gets better from there. If Disco Elysium changed you, this certainly will.
    I wonder if you'll run into any Pristine Cut content on your first playthrough? Probably, but the game is pretty big, so you might not. The fact it (the Pristine Cut) only took the devs one year to complete is mindblowing. The game is now everything it was ever meant to be.

      I feel like he kinda believed that, but also said it exactly to make himself more agreeable. That doesn't really matter when you have the Skeptic talking though... and it could've even been why he just said it. On another route, he says to a voice, "you don't need to know what I am. You just need to know that I'm...different from you. More important."

    You predicted the game as much as the game predicted you. And your psychological insight on the interactions and the natures of the voices were very interesting. Definitely one of the most interesting playthrough analyses of the game I’ve seen so far. Looking forward to more Slay the Princess content!
    Also, the fact that you called that the Skeptic would be wrong and still inspected the shackle. Agh! I was genuinely on the edge of my seat there thinking “don’t do it, don’t do it!” You’d have definitely figured out the best ending for the Prisoner route otherwise I think. But yeah, great video!

    Slay the Princess is a work of art, the writing, voice acting and art are so good it's incredible.
    In Chapter I we have the trolley problem, where you have to chose between potentially sacrificing everyone or proverbially changing lanes so just one person dies, regardless if she is a princess or a seamstress. On the way the problem somehow morphed into the prisoner's dilemma, which is amazing since you got The Prisoner as your princess (one of my favorites btw).
    Now it's no longer the world or the princess, the stakes are personal, you either kill the princess and be let out or chose to cooperate with her and stay locked up and risking bad things to happen because of her near presence. Choosing the path of The Skeptic we cooperated and achieved the best result under the prisoner dilemma problem as the princess also cooperated with us (either willingly or not is unclear, my point is that just sitting next to her wasn't enough to kill/starve us).
    Very satisfying first episode, I liked how you went through with your thoughts and logic and especially how you underlined what you were feeling with regards to the pressure coming from the perceived time sensitivity of the issue rather then from the princess herself. Also emphasizing with the narrator when he started showing emotion.
    You say that The Skeptic is someone who tries to outsmart the situation while you were just trying to be a good person and do the right thing, but I have to contradict you on a point there... you picked up the knife both times with the argument being some shade of "better safe then sorry" this is more in line with the personality of The Skeptic.
    I find it funny because I also disliked what the game showed me on my first run, by the tune of "this isn't me". And it isn't, just how you said about The Skeptic not being able to sympathize with the narrator in his moment of emotional vulnerability proves the you are not them. Still.... the game raises a mirror in front of you, both literally and figuratively. In the end I think this is why the voices disappear when you gaze into the mirror you don't see The Skeptic, a part of yourself, you see the whole, you see you.

I can hardly believe how clever the design is to so accurately predict the player's thought process, and that there are also a ton of layers of that happening all at once. I can't wait to see the rest of this game.

      @@eurobrady if you spend any amount of time designing games or DMing in tabletop RPGs, you quickly learn players love doing anything except what they are told. A big part of developing games is channeling that urge to push players towards fun and engaging experiences despite that.
      If you decided to climb a barren mountain in an open world that was far away from your objective, a good designer will put something there to reward you. An even better designer will put something like a character that needs you to take him to a small town right by your main objective, to make your journey there feel personal, because YOU chose to take on this challenge in a place you discovered “on your own”.
      Needless to say, the StS devs are pros at their craft.

  • @Goldstarknight
    @Goldstarknight День тому +45

    One note on how we use the word 'trust' in different contexts, because sometimes it can get confusing: I think it's useful to differentiate between trust and reliability/reliance when we talk about this topic. Relying on someone is necessary for trusting them, but not the other way around. When I trust my friend to drive me to the airport, I'm (among other things) relying on her to perform said action. But that's different from me relying on my own car to drive me there. It can be justified to get emotional about broken trust, but not always about broken reliance. In everyday conversation we often use the term 'trust' when we are actually talking about reliance. Saying things like 'Trust your instincts.' or 'Don't trust the weather forecast.' does not refer to an actual relationship of trust between different actors. Those relationships are more akin to relying on tools. This may seem like a purely semantic distinction, but since there is real moral and social weight to a relationship of trust, which is not there for one of pure reliance, I think it's actually a pretty important difference. Also, this framework helps to avoid confusion.
    An example:
    At 1:24:17 Brady says the Skeptic isn't very trustworthy, which is true, since he can't be relied on. But here is the difference I want to highlight: the Narrator is made untrustworthy by engaging in deception. This makes him unreliable. The Skeptic however is made untrustworthy by his unreliable sense of judgement. As far as we can tell, he communicates truthfully, but is off in his assessment of the situation. Even if we can't rely on the Skeptic's assessment, he is not undermining other conditions for trust. The relationship of trust (i.e. the general feeling that he is "on our side") can persist precisely because we know the extent of his unreliability and we are relatively sure that he is not trying to deceive us. On the other hand, the Narrator's attempts at deception make him unreliable in a specific way that also undermines other necessary conditions for trust. Those are the ones giving trust it's moral weight.
    That's why I'd say it would be more accurate to say the Skeptic is unreliable, but not broadly untrustworthy. It would not be strictly wrong to describe the Skeptic as untrustworthy, but it feels a bit misleading to me, since that term has some moral implications that seem unfit to describe someone doing their best, but failing because of an unreliable sense of judgment.
    Anyway, glad to see you play this game, Brady! Can't wait for more analysis! :)

    Wow I really like the fresh perspective you bring to the game! One of my favourite parts of watching playthroughs for Slay the Princess is seeing what choices people make on their first playthrough, as I do really believe it shows what type of person you are (Only if you take the game seriously obviously). It's somewhat common for people to make the connection that the Voice you get in Chapter 2 reflects how you behaved in Chapter 1, but you're the first person that genuinely analysed the Voice and it's thought process (To the point where you could correctly predict what it was gonna say). This looks like it's going to be one of the most interesting playthroughs of the game I've seen, I'm really looking forward to more!

    I think the thing you have to understand about the voices is they’re all elements of personality taken to their extremes, so you say the Skeptic isn’t trustworthy anymore near the end, but I don’t think that’s the right way to think of it, the Skeptic is trustworthy in the sense that you always know he’s going to be skeptical of anything you’re told to some degree, it’s simply his nature as what he is to be that way, being mad at him for being skeptical and overanalysing everything is like setting a match to a load of dry wood and then being mad that it turns into a forest fire, it’s up to you as the center mass of this collective to determine what the ‘right’ course of action to take is based on the information you’re given, you have to determine whether the Skeptic is being correct in his skepticism or if he’s going too far with it. Like in a real human mind you can have multiple trains of thought pulling you in different directions simultaneously and it’s up to you to decide whether to follow those trains all the way to their conclusion or to step off and try a different route.
    Tldr: you’re the one who chose to listen to the skeptic and go up to the shackle lol

    Going in, trying to go against the narrator seems to be the obvious thing for the developers to expect most players to do. So in a meta way, doing exactly as the game instructs would be going against the intentions or expectations of the developers and thus the way to go. But I admit I'd like to explore too, seek more information and all that. So.... I think I would have made the same choices as Brady in chapter 1, because I would like to know 1- why I would have to attack someone and 2- if there would be a solution that would benefit or be agreeable to all parties.
    However, the moment the princess attacked us, she showed me that she is indeed dangerous. The second time around, chapter 2, I wouldn't either have stayed at a distance or attacked her straight away. I was curious about the empty chain too, but getting that close to her and to a suspicious empty chain seemed dangerous to me. I chuckled when Brady got himself trapped. Great playthrough!
    I would have liked the game to give the option "enter the cabin, take the blade but holder or hide it", since approaching a chained up person with a weapon in hand isn't exactly a great start in establishing neutral or common ground.

As someone who experienced the game first through a playthrough, I wish I had done what they said. That being said, do as you like.
      (Actually, I just realized that based on what you said, it’s possible you might have played the game yourself already, in which case ignore what I said)

    Slay the Princess is such a good game. There's so many ways to approach the situation. I think you'll find it interesting how things change by the mindset you put in at every loop. Definitely feel free to try something new (the game won't let you repeat the same 2nd chapter per playthrough anyway, since new perspectives are needed).

    Btw, not a spoiler, but you will not be able to recreate the princess from chapter II that you get (in this case, The Prisoner Princess) because the entity needs more perspectives. There are a lot of them in any case.

    Also, this game is incredibly huge, and (as you've already figured in the '4 of us' part) you, the player, are also a character, that can choose or not choose the dialogue options. I'd love to see more of your journey in this game! I'm now subscribed and ready for more! :D

    44:55 Now that is an interesting thought. I'm wondering if it makes sense to view your character through the lense of someone who is plural; and, if you have any experience in working with people who are also plural, if that may apply.
    Speaking from personal experience, we have a similar experience to the character in this game (tho our different facets are not this archetypal) and i think it could be quite informative to think about the game in such ways. I'm definitely excited where this is going already

    oh am i SOOO glad this video showed up in my recommendations cause i love it, not only the simple bit of hearing a therapist's approach to dealing with the characters in this game but also just casually teaching me things. I love it! Also while I've seen therapist react videos on my timeline a few times, never have I seen it for video games, which is more of my thing so that's an extra bonus :)
    If there is room for game recommendation I'd love to see you talk about the game Mouthwashing. A therapist view of that would be amazing, of course it is a heavy psychological horror game so completely understandable if you avoid it, but it is an average 2hr game so its not too long. Either way definitely enjoying this channel, subscribing RIGHT! NOW!
