Jaiden and I play the cute divorce game...

[@bunnyluvspie]

When I got to the elephant part, I straight up told my partner that a happy ending wouldn't be them getting back together. It would be them going to jail.

[@PlayerSlotAvailable]

The gameplay had done nothing but annoy us until that point and when we saw that scene me and my wife both became visibly upset at the story as well. The fact there wasn't at least a divorce by the end really soured the game for us

[@Satherian]

Same - the moment they were like "We need to make her cry!" my spouse and I went "Wtf is wrong with these idiots" The part with the elephant had us fully against them getting back together. The game lost us at that point and, honestly, it should've been about the parents still getting a divorce, but still being friends. It would've been much more interesting and would've done a better job showing that a day of activities and trauma bonding can't fix a fundamentally broken marriage

[@SadLittleTurkey]

@@Satherian Honestly, it made me go full board in supporting the book and whatever crazy things he was going to try. I think the idea of that scene was to shock but also justify extreme measures.

[@TrojenMonkey]

@@PlayerSlotAvailable It's funny how many couples I hear from, who all say: "The gameplay is good, but the characters, the parents, dear god why?" Usually it's the story that saves a game, while the gameplay is kinda mid. It's so rare to see it the other way around. This is honestly a very good coop game, with meticulously written piece of shit story, and I don't understand why.

[@tyler-df3wy]

Love that the game is meant to be about Cody and May getting back together and reigniting the spark in their marriage but Jacob and Jaiden are just constantly going nah you actually really need to get divorced

[@suicune1324]

Considering that this game broke up couples and is all in all a perfect example why these two shouldnt stay married that is no wonder :D

[@tyler-df3wy]

@@suicune1324 literally lmao I think they went too hard on showing why they shouldn’t be together and how much they want to get divorced that I think they’re gonna try to divorce again in a year

I keep forgetting this was recorded after 6 hours of guess who and it just makes so much sense

[@nonexistenthumor1229]

So glad we got to see y'alls reaction to the elephant part cause its fucking morbid and bat shit insane that you just kinda continue on after that lmao

[@Julian-lz5pd]

I don't like admitting that the elephant scene is the hardest a game has ever made me cry but here we are

[@Sybry605]

I'm sorry but when me and my friend saw that, we laughed our asses off and then after that we were like:"hm, this is kinda sad I guess"(we did not take this game seriously at all, still had a lot of fun), but I do get why you would cry at this scene

[@Almaster_00927]

I wonder what the 2nd game would be about The kid grows up and gets a divorce too?

[@Pan_Tran_DnDfan]

@Almaster_00927 Cody and may, after a few years of being back as humans and reflecting on their adventure. They feel immense guilt every time they walk into rose's room and see cutie or moon baboon. Whenever they go into the garden and see a bee, wasp, squirrel or beetle, they remember "oh yeah. These things are basically people." They both desperately need therapy to cope with all the screwed up things they did on their journey, but refuse to get it because of wanting to appear strong for Rose and each other. One day, one of them, could be Cody or May, is cleaning rose's room, when they stumble upon those wooden and clay dolls. They begin to cry, tears falling on to the dolls. They wake up, back in their old doll bodies, met by Dr Hakim and possibly a new self-help book character. They must then embark on a new journey of making up for their past mistakes by helping people they've wronged in the past, and whatever else the two books tell them to do. Don't know how good this as a Concept is, just thought of it and figured I should write it. Hope you liked it!

[@flowey-UT-7]

That’s a cool idea

[@risottopose9970]

Never been this early to a video, unfortunately I will not be finishing it as of this moment but I’ll be sure to return to this sacred treasure

You guys should totally play No Straight Roads. The bosses are incredibly unique, the story is actually really good, and also you over throw an entire musical company. Honestly, I think it’s a perfect game for you two and it’d be fun to see you guys play it. Fun stream as always!

[@MillyKKitty]

Omg that would be fun!

[@brittbolt]

the space levels are so fun - but my husband got motion sickness from them though so I had to figure out how to do all the levels by myself. 😭

And now they’re divorced :(

As someone who’s knowledge of the game is solely from the first half of Jaiden and Jacob’s playthrough, my reaction to this comment was “Space Levels?”

AHHHH Im happy to finally see more. I wasn't sure this wasn't episode 1 again. The full VODs and cut down ones keep confusing my tiny monkey brain and I have to double take to make sure I didnt already watch. This part of the game is fun and I cant wait to see yall get through it. A lot of people hate the Elephant part, but it's so good, perfectly messed up. These parents got a waysssss to go.

Oh, how I wish to watch this right now. I was really excited for the divorce arc to continue but I couldn't watch live, and here cometh the vod and I can't watch it now either. I can't wait for when I can!!

[@TrojenMonkey]

If I could ever ask the writers anything, it'd be: "why?" Like, seriously, why make the parents so awful? It's not even comically evil, they're just awful people, and show no regret for anything they're doing, or the lies they're telling. It's not even a case of "bad" or "lazy" writing, it's clearly all intentionally, methodically written to be terrible. And I just don't understand why? Is it some cheap jab at 80s B-rated movies? P.S: Notice how at 3:00:00, they do not even feel any form of remorse for literally basking in the tears of their daughter, they just feel sorry for themselves. I literally cannot comprehend how I did not find a single interview with the lead writer, who asked him: "Yeah, uhm, what the fuck?"

[@misti4492]

Honestly this game is one where it was a ton of fun but I hated the characters and the plot. They were awful people to each other and to their daughter, I was 1000% rooting for them to stay divorced by the end of the game.

This game is one of the best games ever from a gameplay perspective and one of the worst games ever from a story and character perspective

[@SophieStarPlayxz]

2:05:18 You see, that's the thing about some parents who want to divorce. They always take needless hits at the other person when given the opportunity. It's always so uncalled for, but they do it anyways because of the bitter/negative feelings that have built up for the other person. They don't want to think about their own problems in the relationship, and use the other person's to justify them always doing this. It's annoying tbh how these couples that aren't really couples act. (For context: this is also how my parents are, so that's how I know about this) Off that topic, for the line "take a chill pill" the line in istelf isn't great, but the way he says it is good. Might've been funnier if they made his line something like "I'll freeze your asses!" (calling the enemy an ass)
