      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

      As a therapist, his entire job is to help people come to terms with the metaphorical chains that bind them, and help free them from their constraints through understanding and perspective.

      The Princess is really not that bad. She is just suffering in the basement until you come and start shaping her with your actions. She is a victim, if nothing else. But "the hands" aka TSM is a whole other story. If not evil, she is at the very least really arrogant and ignorant of TLQ. They are pretty similar in terms of character with The Narrator.

      You could argue that it is a flaw, I'd say it's just his priorities. In the same way that I wouldn't call the Hero trying to be virtuous a flaw. The Skeptic has a goal, and if you're trying to achieve something else by listening to him, that's on you.

    • @KatrineO-e3u
      @KatrineO-e3u 14 днів тому +18

      Just for the record, I totally agree that The Skeptic's obsession with figuring out the situation isn't a flaw in itself. It's super useful in many routes, and it's a very valid way of dealing with the crazy situation the protagonist finds himself in.
      The flaw that I was getting at was more that I would argue that the Skeptic has a hard time differentiating what IS and IS NOT relevant to the mystery at hand. Nothing can just be an unimportant detail: The shackle can't be unimportant set dressing, it's obviously the key to the whole thing! Everything the narrator and the princess says is filtered through his worldview of clues and solutions, making him pretty useless in routes like !! PRISTINE CUT SPOILERS !! The Cage where the problem is the princess' emotional state and not a pattern that needs to be cracked using data points. Seeing him contrasted with the Broken in that route really brings it home I feel.
      Anyways, fucking love the Voice of the Skeptic, he's such a smart dumbass.

      It's also the foundation of the gameplay. This game is so interesting because the entire time you're trying to piece together the full narrative with partial messages, and yet every route you take provides another unique piece of the puzzle. Yet, on top of that, every route you experience (especially your first) gives you a wildly different interpretation of what that message could be until the game concludes (or sometimes even until after multiple playthroughs).

    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.

  • @Goldstarknight
    @Goldstarknight 21 день тому +122

    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! :)

    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 feel like he kinda believed that, but also said it exactly to make himself more agreeable.

You just need to know that I'm...different from you. More important."

I think there might be new dialogue? But I’m not sure. Overall since it’s a free update try it out.

    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

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!

    Edit: it’s interesting that you mentioned decision paralysis, because there are a couple routes that are basically indecision personified, and one of them (heart, lungs, liver, nerves- iykyk) is by far the scariest route, to me.
    Edit 2: Hating the Skeptic when you’re the one enabling his choices is… an interesting take. Very funny that you stated that sentiment RIGHT before his curiosity saves you from unchanging oblivion.

The stakes are so high in any choice you make, either killing one person for certain or POTENTIALLY allowing EVERYONE to die. I guess you could think of it as a trolley problem.

      I can more closely relate to the princess, she believes herself to be the same to a certain degree but changes based on her perception of how others perceive her. There's always some form of amnesia, but lately it's been closer to how the protagonist has it at times. The whole taking forever making choices with conflicting voices, thoughts, and feelings is also something that is highly relatable, and the silent protagonist shifting around what identities to identify more or less with when making decisions is also interesting (how it ends up for players when playing the game).

    My favorite thing is how with context from the rest of the game, the narrator is shown to be completely genuine while still being manipulating and wrong. Like, he isn’t even lying when he says there’s no mirror, because he can’t see it. It isn’t full lying to you when he says you weren’t there before, because from his perspective this is really the first time, even if he considered the alternative. He’s completely right that telling you more about her will make her harder to kill. The world will, in some sense, end if you don’t slay the princess.
    It creates an interesting relationship between him and the player. No matter what route you take first, he’ll probably come off as manipulative, powerful, and untrustworthy. You’ll definitely think he’s lying on chapter 2 without context. By the end of the game, you know he was genuine and altogether powerless, but you’ve spent so much time with him, including times where he’s at his worst, and in all likelihood you can see the flaws in his logic. So he remains hard to like, even when the reasons you once disliked him have been for the most part flipped.
    It’s an interesting psychological development, and I’m curious how Brady will react as the narrator’s truths are unfolded more.

    The timing couldn't be more perfect. I'm revisiting Slay the Princess videos again after two years, and you uploaded!

    I really appreciate your reasoning, but there’s one part I think you missed: putting yourself in the Narrator's position. Regardless of what the truth might be, imagine that, as the Narrator, your job is to lead someone to a cabin to kill a dangerous person. The moments where you find his tone manipulative-and therefore view him with skepticism-are actually moments where he’s desperately trying to convince the hero not to hesitate. He’s scared, too, and his only tool in this situation is his voice. “Manipulating” you is the only way he believes he can prevent disaster.
    Picture this: you’re walking through the woods, heading toward the cabin with the intent to kill the princess, but suddenly you stop and ask, “Why?” Understandably, he’s frustrated because any delay could be dangerous, and he can’t understand why you’re questioning this mission so close to its end. His tone comes across as annoyed, manipulative, or even pushy because the urgency of the situation is so high.
    If you go back to the 45:20 mark, try to listen to his words from his perspective. The Narrator has rules he’s bound to follow-he’s a Narrator, not a character like you or the princess. Another voice suggests he’s only on your side if you obey him, but that’s because he genuinely believes that if you don’t follow his instructions, you and the world could be destroyed. How could he “be on your side” if you’re about to take an action that he believes will lead to everyone’s doom? The interesting thing here for you to rewatch, is that he literally says that after the other voice calls him out-and you disregard it immediately.
    To me, it feels like he’s being honest, even if it sounds forceful. All I'm saying is I get where he’s coming from, in a way.

    Without any spoilers, I think the route you got here and your reaction to it is absolutely fascinating, and I really enjoyed the analysis you did about why the Narrator doesn't come off as very convincing and such.

    I’m so glad that I found this video of you playing and adding analysis to it. This was the first game in 20 years that made me cry and to do a long introspection, and to look for answers for question I didn’t know I had, or that I didn’t want to acknowledge.
    I’m looking forward for more.

    I normally couldn't give two poops about "professional whatever does UA-cam videos" like lawyers or doctors or whatever. It always feels like an uncomfortable gimmick.
    But this? This video is actually interesting and there's details like how you're running us through your thinking and your drawn diagram matching the style of the game (even jittering!) that I really appreciate.
    I hope I end up liking your channel overall.

    This is the first time I saw this game, I heard about it, but I had no idea about what it was about. And I gotta say, I'm impressed, the way how the game "reads your mind" is incredible, alongside with most of the things being some sort of allegory or interpretation.
    Seeing a therapist playing this was great, I could relate alot to the game and to his thoughs. Even though I already knew about "Paralanguage" and "scenario reading", it was very interesting going in deep about those mental interpretations!

    I actually really like this video. I never thought I needed to see this game played from the perspective of a therapist. The way you classify the meaning behind what's going on and consider the scenario as a whole is deeply fascinating.

    I like it already. Idk the specifics about the genre but This, the Stanley Parable, and Little Misfortune have some aspects of the manner of storytelling in common and I like it a lot.
