I love your game! Are you the voice of Richard? I swear I know the voice like it reminds me so much of Chad from Clarence but I'm not sure I just know I've heard it before somewhere

1:59:24 After such a sad game, Teo managed to make it end on such a light-hearted tone. I was sniffling/laughing right along with him.

[@_G0LD1E_]

I haven't cried this much in a while. Truly amazing game here. Honestly, at the end of the game they should've done a "In loving memory of," where it then just says, "Your damn feelings," and then it shows a picture that it took of you crying during the gameplay.

[@dom-ru5cc]

That’s on the same level as the pictures you get of yourself riding a rollercoster that they try to sell you when you get off

[@BLANKONTOP]

That would force me to have the same reaction too if they just decided to put "get rekt lol" right at the end.

[@HungryGusher]

1:59:25 is easily my favourite Teo moment of all time! I didn't cry while watching the game, but this moment had me in tears of laughter! SO AMAZING!

Whenever I need a good cry I tend to come back to this video. This game is absolutely beautiful and just resonates with my soul. I’ve always enjoyed watching Teo play games and this one is certainly special. Thank you Teo.

[@mothmantra6289]

Motherhood, and my bond with my own mother who has been in the hospital for two years, is some of the most important things to me. I've always wanted kids, and always suffered from a crippling fear of losing all of it, my mother, my dreams, my possible children, illness and disease. That Dragon, Cancer DESTROYED me for days. I remember watching it and feeling so. Horribly empty. As if I'd lost something. I knew, the moment the kid got sick, that something was off, and it was going to be one of THOSE stories, and it hurt the entire time I watched it. But these kinds of stories still feel so important. Idk where I'm going with this tbh. Just that it was a really, really good game, I guess.

[@calebchandler7503]

POV: you're trying not to blink too

[@julienpebble]

When Teo started talking about wanting to hug his dad and realising he can’t yet , it brings you back into a sense of reality of how difficult it is for some people to not have that human contact during corona. We all feel you on that one Teo

[@Lolman-yx6es]

I'm 18 years old and I'm playing video games since I was about 4 or 5 but I've never ever had such strong emotional link between a game and myself.

[@aoba8360]

SPOILERS Something that’s really cool that the game kind of didn’t communicate well was at the end if you blinked when the mother was reading the story it would switch back to the ferryman reading the same story. It would keep switching back and forth everytime you blink and it’s a pretty cool detail. Though it might’ve hit harder that it was just the mother reading it. Regardless, good play through!

The story in this game is amazing. Great work from the devs. They need to make more games like this or in this style, I think its really good narrative telling device. Stories like this remind us of how lucky some of us are to just be alive and to live every day likes it is your last, because it very well could be. To enjoy the time with family and friends, no matter how bad things can get. And that some people in this world are taken at such a young age end never get to experience life fully, is very sad and heart-breaking. But that even being born, being alive, is a gift in and of itself.

[@DanielLeite26]

The orator gave him a story that shows the player choosing their road to happiness; but, on the way to the Gatekeeper, the Orator had to inform the player of what actually happened in life, as not to lie to the Gatekeeper. Looking back at the beginning, the realization when the Liar Birds start immediately squawking when the Orator said he was going to tell the player the story of 'their life' caused me to BURST into tears.
