Nerd³ Plays... The Stanley Parable

[@IRAMightyPirate]

If you keep going in the broom closet and annoying the Narrator, he eventually has it boarded up in subsequent plays of that branch. Priceless.

[@thegamerfreak5706]

Stanley parable actual plot: accidentally came in on a day off

[@mistertagnan]

Yeah lol

[@cyancoyote7366]

...and also accidentally took cocaine instead of aspirin xD

[@mjr.ashhole7436]

cyancoyote you mean LSD

[@Tumbleflop]

@@mjr.ashhole7436 you mean both

[@Dizzynoodlegamer]

I love how the achievement for clicking the door 5 times ends with clicking the door 5 times

[@ChickenOfAwesome]

Me, watching this video and thinking: 'Huh, this is like Portal meets Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy...' Dan: "This game is like Portal, if Portal were written by Douglas Adams" Great minds and all that.

[@supeaptorthedinoofgaming3752]

You mean funny minds

[@CuddleCuttlefish]

"A game about choice.... Sort of" That is actually a really accurate explanation of what this game is.

[@TheRyQuaza]

My favourite thing about this is that the demo has literally nothing to do with the actual game, and still gives you a feel for it. That's a serious achievement.

[@officialkirbyfan6899]

It's like it's own thing

[@SuspiciousScout]

Damn, the Broom closet ending was just spectacular.

[@nineteenineeteen]

He didn't finish the ending

[@Uni_Iris_1]

4 years late, but I appreciate the Big Nep pic!

[@sierra_bravo6388]

only three more years until i get the "go outside achievement"

[@sierra_bravo6388]

wait no 2 more years. i forgot its 2016

[@ZyphLegend]

+360Ragequit that's cheating!

[@_Maddex_]

Zyph_Legend since when does it stop anyone

[@ZyphLegend]

iAre Maddex if I am correct, it has been stopping people since August 27, 1986

[@torresworries]

2 more years now...

[@YourFatherVEVO]

I just noticed something. When you were pressing the 8 button in the demo, the narrator says this has nothing to do with the full game. And yet, in the control centre, there are buttons 1-7, but no 8. Beautiful.

[@prettydecent9958]

I'm currently going for the 'don't play The Stanley Parable for two years' achievement. Its an actual thing

[@sokolgaming7597]

change the date on your computer to 2 years later and you should get it.

[@Crapcom86]

I fucking love this game. Also, I think you meant the "Go Outside" achievement. It's "don't play The Stanley Parable for 5 years"

[@sokolgaming7597]

***** Well he said 2 years in his comment +Edward Hills

[@Crapcom86]

cqcrtdoesgaming So? He could've gotten it wrong. The achievement says 5 years. Look it up.

[@jockohomosexual]

I finished it by changing the time of my computer.

[@maximumaction1125]

Dan has now got the 5 year achievement

[@Soplex64]

"When there was no more dialogue from the narator, Stanley realised the game was trying to tell him something."

[@LazerLord10]

I'm still trying to figure out this game. I've gotten to heaven, but that's about as far as I could ever get. Oh, I also got lots of boxes at some point.

[@BigFrostySnapple]

In the intro I just realized that Stanley is an npc with a repeating animation. No, not literally in the cutscene, but in the game. He's one of those unimportant npc's that does the same thing over and over again. Only his room is loaded in the game (when it zooms out) because the player hasn't gotten to him yet. All his co-workers are gone because the player moved on and everything de-spawned...except him. Anyway this is prob completely wrong but I thought it was an interesting take on the game.

[@mainstreamdiogenes1344]

Or you could play the game and find out...

[@BigFrostySnapple]

bum bum buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuum (have the game and love it btw)

[@andiehuman]

After watching your Fallout series, I really got irked that you didn't collect the duct tape in the broom closet

[@kahlei98]

Lol :D

[@cmoore1057]

when dan said "go and buy this game now" i was yelling at my computer "i have a mac. i cant!"

[@SeamusFries]

HA, BEG FOR FORGIVENESS

[@SeamusFries]

Cynthia Moore enjoy my Demma plays Left4dead reference

[@davetheman7495]

You can now

[@ThatOneShortieHo]

I genuinely wonder if any child got their guardian to get them this game because of Dan's message. And I wonder if they did their chores.

[@FreestyleCrazy12345]

Why not i just showed my parents this and my Dad just laughed and got me it xD

[@musicthesedays5652]

Half of this video was someone clicking on doors.

[@_Maddex_]

Music these Days AKA Master Yoda the other half was sitting in a broom closet

[@SeamusFries]

And the other half was sitting in a closet

[@hawkfalcon6707]

Has anyone else noticed that the "Click Door 430 Five Times" achievement ends with clicking door 430 five times? "Oh Stanley. You thought that an achievement is worth five measly clicks? What were you thinking?" Well, Mr. Narrator, you still get it from clicking FIVE TIMES.

[@girlparodys]

That was the point.

[@EndlessPandas]

10 times. 5 clicks starts the achievement and after you do all the other stuff, another 5 on door 430. 5+5=42 and 42 has 4 10s so it must be 10.

[@scovelme]

Endless Pandas what????????

[@EndlessPandas]

scovelme I made a Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy joke. In that show, 42 is the meaning of Life, The Universe and Everything. I know that 5+5=10, but I wanted to make a joke.

[@scovelme]

Endless Pandas ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh it all makes sense now

[@Topshy_Kretts]

you missed the end of the broom closet ending, it continues for a bit if you go back in there after he welcomes player 2.

[@candyman9635]

Hi, nerd, its 2016 now, and steam achievements still exist

[@zaxtonhong3958]

No, it's 2016 NOW

[@candyman9635]

+Zaxton Hong it was 2016 2 weeks ago, i posted that at midnight

[@sophiabrandt1563]

YOU'RE BOTH WRONG!!!! ITS 2016 NOW

[@elmode5225]

+Totally Not A Banana pretty sure it's 2016 now

[@blackhound3107]

It's 1987 now FNAF 6 confirmed.

[@CommanderNomNoms]

I was literately screaming; " Go back in the broom closet!" after the narrator said player two couldn't do any worse.

[@patrickjohnson1175]

But now you can go back in the broom closet :]

[@CommanderNomNoms]

Patrick Johnson Fair enough.

[@the_nerd5976]

achievement hunter should do a video of this.

[@GonzoAppreciator]

yes

[@OneJazzyBoye]

25 Games that Defined the Decade indeed

[@insomniplier7063]

I was brought here by a man playing the who died in a broom closet, his name was Dan.

[@Devotedport13]

My mom actually bought it! Thanks nerd!

[@Jontheawsome92]

+Devotedport13 how did you enjoy your extra 3 weeks of chores?

[@cloroxbleach6960]

HIS NAMES DAN NOT NERD

[@adamchmielewski6162]

NEEEEEEEEERRRRRDDDD

[@TheInfamousCookie]

Dan didn't actually finish the broom closet ending, he needed to go back in as the second player

[@JimmyHelp]

You should have stepped back into the closet!

[@aligallaton3978]

I just watched a man spend 10 minutes clicking on random things because a gravelly voiced man in the sky told him to *Those were the best ten fucking minutes of my life*

[@hollypenny2193]

Dadcubed needs to play this!!!! It would be in-genius!!!!

[@SamuelTBrooks]

You know what's great? That's not even all of the humour derived from the broom closet. If you enter it on your next playthrough (in the same session), the Narrator starts commenting on it again.

[@Hi-Jinks]

And if you go by it the 3rd time, the closet is actually boarded up so you can't go into it.

[@tjbanansen1]

The Mystery Video was the same video.... The end is never the end....

[@dazman7173]

1 second longer

[@KirbyMario12345_939]

Achievement guide (spoiler warning): Click on door 430 five times. - (In video) Speed run - restart the game until walking forward brings you straight to the two doors. Then complete the "Freedom Ending" as quickly as you can. Unachievable - a random action in the game (which changed with each patch) may grant you this achievement. Commitment - On Monday at 10.35PM, start the game (probably mute the sound too), and wait until Wednesday at around 1AM before turning it off. You Can't Jump - press the Source engine's jump key a few times (Space bar by default) Go outside - Can only legitimately be achieved if you last played in 2013 and wait till October 2018. Else, set your clock 5 years ahead. Beat the game - Achieve the "Freedom Ending" 8888888888888888 - during the "Freedom Ending" type "8888" twice into the boss' keypad, and you'll hear the "Eight." soundclip from the demo.

[@VenseyNess]

I'm almost 60% of the way through the "go outside" achievement! After I'm done with that I'll go and do the rest.

[@spartan20005]

Right?! I didn't notice that was an achievement until I came back to the game after 2 years.

[@gferrol118]

To get the 8888888888888888 achievement you need to type 8888 into the keyboard in he bosses office. To get the this is an achievement one you have to look into the settings for it. To get the don't play the game for 5 years you can just change the date on your computer. And to complete the game you just have to do everything the narrator says.

[@josephdabunny]

happy that you played the ultra deluxe version all these years later... in 2022

[@EndlessPandas]

13:13 Pause. Love the text on that whiteboard.

[@humantimelord5546]

The broom closet ending was my favourite

[@lorimottau]

I feel like Stanley would have the same voice as Dan :P

[@dawe9awe]

nerdubed, 6 years ago: dont watch this video if you HAVENT PLAYED IT me, 6 years later: I''ve played it I'm back

[@Razticz]

This used to be a half life two mod. It’s amazing to see how far it’s come. You can watch the yogs cast video on it. It’s amazing to see where it came from

[@NitoNine]

NerdCubed Completes... The Stanley Parable

[@monkiemonA]

no , just fucking buy it

[@austincochran6905]

challenge: make a video about getting the go outside achievement

[@CommanderKatelyn]

The funny thing is, the first time I played this game I thought Stanley's job was a subtle hint to how some video games just make you hold buttons, but probBly not...

[@aduck3504]

this was the greatest mystery video eva

[@VengefullyQueerDragon]

Did he get the Go Outside achievement yet?

[@endadoran4861]

there is 18 endings

[@leemurweeks]

Plot twist Stanley accidentally came in on a Saturday

[@Telomerase9]

According to the ad before through video, Farming Simulator 14 is only on mobile.

[@finalhorizonsmultiplayerga7533]

did you get the broom closet ending

[@SowhartGaming]

"ooowww, did you get the broom clorset ending? The broom clorset ending was my favourite" ;P

[@insertname5813]

Oh it was my favourite

[@luluhyams9059]

It was so cool

[@fitzfizzy]

I remember this when it was just a hl2 mod

[@YOM2_UB]

A small excerpt of the list of the thousands of emotions you will experience while playing The Stanley Parable; - Nausea - Angry for no reason - Peckish - Spurious - Deep existential dread - Just groovy, man - Like a virgin - Tempted into grand larceny - Catlike - Late for work - Emotionless - Wondering what's for lunch - Thinking about umbrellas - You are Spiderman - Afraid of the number 18 - Dead - Near dead - Dead except for your knees - Alive but with no knees - Alive but only knees - 80's training montage - Moving to Spain next month - Clive Owen - You are at the beach - Being burned alive - Wanting to start a Brazilian Pachinko company but ultimately unsure that the local economy will support it - Oneness with the universe - Oneness with other universes - Having a mustache - Orange - Down in the dumps - Down but out of the dumps - Up and beside the dumps - Cheesecake hangover - Loved by ducks - Bad at grammar - Spacious - Are you honestly reading this entire list? - Why?? - Being hunted by your cyborg father - Swallowing a whole tire iron - Wishing you had a third arm - King of the bees - Confident-ish - Unprepared for next tuesday - All over next tuesday - Seriously, I'm going to make next Tuesday my bitch

[@YOM2_UB]

...or was that a different game?

[@onlinepanic2036]

YOM2 i think your right?

[@xavierdebates7694]

watch 830-930 with subtitels on time

[@RedsBoneStuff]

Wait, the mystery video link at the end of this video leads to this video!

[@pahman3070]

that's because the end Is never the end Is never the end is never the-

[@RedsBoneStuff]

Pahman And yet the end is right there, at the hyphen :P

[@pahman3070]

+RedsBoneStuff the hyphen stands for infinity, because the end *continues forever*

[@RedsBoneStuff]

This reminds me: that's how I once won a song competition, I put a hyphen at the beginning and at the end, indicating that the song loops. The content doesn't even make sense if it doesn't loop.

[@Razzlewolfflight]

I love this game. The narrator is the best.

[@madmandan1000]

Watching during 2020 quarantine remembering the good times

[@masonlutz2319]

Choice, it's the best part about being a real person.

[@James-xb1zm]

Finally, a indie game video not done by a screaming, unfunny Swedish person or a another screaming person who even though twenty acts like a five year old girl.

[@liwuos]

I suppose you mean pewds and mark? No offense to any body who likes them.

[@tommyc8006]

[@smouty9794]

Oh shit wassup Wesley... you're not still on fire are you

[@guyonacomputer1261]

Speed Run Instructions (Its extremely hard...): Complete the game following the narrator multiple times. Eventually, the game will skip the first section, and drop you at the doors The game will open the boss's secret door automatically. Go down the lift, and get on the chairs and table to reach the catwalks faster. Run down. Press "Off"

[@ashtonjohnson344]

Little did Stanley know it was a bank holiday DUN DUN DUHHHHH

[@ramimansi8511]

Wtf this is so holarious there is actually an ending called the broom closet ending no joke its a real thing ?! WTF

[@LocustxXxLocust]

[@myar4931]

That moment when the "Mystery Video" annotation links you right back to the same video you just watched.

[@THEButterFingerBatma]

3.2 percent of people have achieved the unachievable achievement.

[@TheJayson8899]

I finished this in 2 hours. I wish I didn't get this. It was incredible but way too short. It should be $5 not bloody $15! It seems like no one else agrees with me for some reason. If this had about 25 endings then it would be worth it but what, 13 endings? That's bullcrap. Oh well...

[@MrCrasherdog]

There's more endings than 13...

[@johnvanek9514]

did you find the broom closet ending?

[@TheJayson8899]

John Vanek Yeah I did and it was hilarious XD MrCrasherdog Really? I remember reading a guide to see how many endings there were and it had 13. Maybe it was too early where they didn't know all the endings. How many are there then?

[@MrCrasherdog]

I did some research and I concluded that there's at least 17 or so endings.

[@TheJayson8899]

MrCrasherdog 17 endings? A little more then i thought but still worth more like $5 in my opinion.

[@thicboibigsmoke7220]

for the 888888888888 achievement, just type that in for the pass code in the boss's office over and over.

That wasn't the broom closet ending, you have to go back inside.

[@prajwalbhat56]

The broom closet joke actually continues if you re-enter the broom closet after the narrator welcomes the second player.

[@James_Byron]

the best thing on KZbin history would be a video with the AH guys and Nerd³...

[@emmanuelgoldstein9806]

"Portal if Portal was written by Douglas Adams." That alone would persuade me to get this game...

[@foxboy94]

There's more if you go back into the broom closet as the second player.

[@cooldudewill07]

Dan did you get the go outside achievement?

[@nathanrexter5613]

I love that the mystery video is this video

I love how this game pokes fun at so many modern gaming concepts. The pointless tasks and achievments, the RTE, the so called "choices" etc etc...a fine game.

[@acsdfdve7146]

888888888888 is actually when you enter 8 multiple times at the keypad behind the boss desk
