    Smooth-eh reacted to Vexium in Vex's Official PSA on Why Not to Buy The Stanley Parable

    Don't play this game. It's a waste of money. You think it will be deep. Maybe in some parts it is - on a surface level. But ultimately, to save you time, here's the underlying message: games are really like real life, so go out and play in real life instead of following the computer's orders in a simulated environment.

    'Cept the reason you play videogames isn't to find one that is so downright dull that it is just like real life. And that's what The Stanley Parable really is. A steaming pile of utter garbage straight from the cesspools of mediocre game design and incompetent storytelling.

    Some people argue that this game is a work of art. Really? And what was artistically profound about it? The series of linear choices you made? The randomly generated changes when you completed an ending? The amount of metanarrative conceptualization and the hilarious ways in which you would waste your time trying to find entirely pointless developments that offered no insights?

    How about that ending that caused you to quit out of the game? Ooh boy, what an exciting ending. I'm sure that really got you going, eh. You got to walk around a museum and see what the game's creation really was like! Wow! Another brilliant narrative development.

    How about the time you followed a line for multiple playthroughs and the same boring, hackneyed idea was drilled into your retinas for close to 30 minutes?

    But, sure. Maybe that's art. Maybe. For some really hipster kids who don't understand what the word 'art' implies (hint: effort and creativity). Maybe you think wandering around a Halflife 2 mod's simulated version of an office with no gameplay mechanics is fun. Maybe you think Minecraft and Portal references are the peak of ironic allusions to consumerism in the digital world.

    Even then, The Stanley Parable is a worthless pile of dung, not fit for the cost nor the measley time it takes to play. By the way, the game lasts about... oh... 20 minutes per playthrough. And at best, you'll play it for 5 hours to find the endings you want by diverging on certain sets of linear paths (and yes, they are highly linear - not complex at all) to find the 10 or so endings the game offers.

    No, no countless narrative structures. No endless divulging explanations into games, into existence, into the power of choice. Just several rather typified remarks on life, society, and the digital age we live in. You'd find more entertainment in an Ayn Rand novel.

    Now, before you critique my critique, I have played through every ending and literally every variant of decision-making in the game. And that only took 3 hours. Most of the longer plots have interesting commentaries mixed into the heaping feces-filled drivel spouted, but those moments lasted less than 30 seconds and then I would return to the futile hell that is this so-called game. Overall, I could not be more dissatisfied with my purchase.

    What really gets me is how this game was presented - this is where some credit is due. It was marketed in such a clever way, as if it held some deep purpose or meaning, and then it literally quite honestly admits that it doesn't have that significance in the game. The narrator then proceeds to subtly mock you on your purchase decisions, all the while critiquing you as being the kind of addicted-to-computers-and-technology person that needs to get outside.

    And maybe the game is clever in that sense. It forces you to be so disgusted with its own pitiful mediocrity that you actually want to go outside rather than play it. It makes you feel sorry that you completed the game in almost every ending, as if to say, "why would you ruin the little, terrible machine I've created?" In fact, I think I'm paraphrasing the narrator pretty acurately there.

    The saving grace is the voice acting, but even that can't change the lack of ingenuity and utter stupidity that is The Stanley Parable.

    Congratulations if you already bought The Stanley Parable. You were suckered in just like I was, and you have officially fallen into the consumer trap that the game figuratively represents.
     
    TL;DR You're a moron if you buy The Stanley Parable, and the game basically tells you as much.

    Smooth-eh reacted to Dyscivist in My thoughts on the Stanley Parable   
    A padded, boring piece of trash that doesn't come close to being worth the cost of admission. This is probably the best thing in the entire game:


     
    Everything else is a no-gameplay timesink and the worst part is that the dialogue isn't even clever or interesting, and that's all the game consists of.

    Anyone have any varying thoughts or opinions? If so, I can't wait to hear them! Feel free to drop me a line at fuckyourselfanallywithametalpoleuntilyoupunctureyourcolonandbleedtodeath@yahoo.ca.
