I will give this game another try
thank you we love you afro just try to slow down :)
pls do its such a cool as game. PLAY IT MORE!
Yes please
Goodluck this game is a mindfuck
When you get to the phone before the mannequin, try unplugging the phone at the wall instead of answering it :) much better ending
this game is basically a self aware game theres more than 40 endings it also has a “sequel” in the game if u play for long enough….but i gotta admit watching u play this was extremely painful 😭
Ngllll I feel the same wayyyy idk why but it was painful af
i believe it got more than 50 endings
Cause he kept talking instead of understanding.
His style prevents him from exploring story-driven games (GoW, a game like 12 minutes, etc), hence, stunting the growth of the channel.
@@sunkanmifafowora9402 it was also 3 am and he was playing tired. You could hear how tired he was when he started it. Of course he having a hard time, he was not warned at all XD
And he keep quitting I wanna pull my skin off but we love him
Learned alot about afro in this video. His irrational fear of naked mannequins and he doesn’t know what a fern is
Bruh when he walked passed the fern and the Narrator starts talking about it, Afro kept walking looking for something he just passed by I nearly shot myself in the head 🤣☠️
@@cursebarklee41 that shit made me want to break my own fourth wall and grab afro while shaking him in frustration
@@cursebarklee41 And then he walks by the fern again and is like "fuck it" and walks on lol
Honestly to really just enjoy this game, you gotta let go. Let go of trying to make sense of a bunch of stuff, just listen to what the narrator says, make your choices, and take everything as it comes. Do some unconventional stuff, be unpredictable, and enjoy the ride. That's really all there is to it. There's a lot of philosophy and stuff about game design and life itself, but if you dont want to wrack your brain over it, just take things as they come and make your choices.
That's pretty much what Afro did lol
@@SlugKnightDracula nah afro was metaphorically slacking his face into a rock and rag dolling where ever the game took him
Let him play how he want
Best tip is to not self restart unless told to do so. The game remembering each ending you got and even each time you restart and uses it to mess with you lol
The game is a masterpiece but you have to take your time to understand what it's going for in every ending, if you're gonna restart and run through things it's probably not for you
Fr everytime when he restarted it pissed me off a little
@@Vibin_897 fr i wish i could just watch him finish an ending instead of calling it quits before stuff really happens
@@Rrowipw because he thinks he knows better than the games. Dude doesnt really know much about games for someone that has a channel about it lol
@@Vibin_897 never played it but same
@@evantaylor1378 Ight nigga chill with the disrespect
He can beat Melina but a single mannequin got him beat. The Mannequin is the true boss, dont call yourself a pro unless you can look at it in it's lack of eyes for at least 5 seconds. All fun in games bro, a little weird but keep at it, you'll get over your fears one day :)
Take a breath, try again and take a page out of everyones favorite yelling Irishmans book.
There really isn't anything like this game. I wish I could go back and play it for the first time again!
Same!
@Robin Shorts 🅥 what's here you mom's nubs?
Undertale maybe?
There are like 50 games like this
You might like Kyle Is Famous. It's smaller than The Stanley Parable but similar
Afro is a perfect example of the streamer era of gamers not really....fucking with games they cant talk over lol
I noticed recently that many CZcamsrs and streamers have an extremely short attention span. Idk if this is because they have a limited amount of time/ doesn’t want to bore the viewers. But they will often skip dialogue, in-game reading, tutorials, on screen tips, and almost anything that would slow them down. Normally this isn’t a big deal with most games, but It’s annoying seeing them try to “rush” a slow game. They often end up confused or not enjoying the game since they sped through it instead of taking their time, which ruins the experience for the viewer and the streamer/CZcamsr.
@@thatonedude6596 which is what is happening here. And guess what...I just watched asmongold and he was being a normal human and playing it normally. this is an Afro problem, not the game.
@@evantaylor1378 well to be fair, afro literally has mental disorders that fuck with his attention span like adhd and also dyslexia.
@@evantaylor1378 “this is an Afro problem, not the game”
🤣🤣🤣😭☠️
@@evantaylor1378 that’s surprising being that he is not a normal human being
That confusion ending was a W friendship buildup with the narrator

I am going to be honest, watching this gameplay is very …painful 😥
Leave
@@reggielacey2235 I still found it funny so I watched it all
I can tell he likes gameplay centric games more than something with more story or exposition.
Yeah but thats just lacking artistic appreciation for a variety of things and feeling the need to be in "control" all the time.
Because i can understand a dark souls game, and understand how to play stanely parable all the same. Why cant he? So in my mind, is this dude just... dumber? lol
Narration in storytelling overall unless done right sucks
This game is mind-frying, let me tell you.
But damn, skipping two endings on the first video? AND not liking the Narrator talking so much? I don’t know if this game is a good experience for you then.
I will say this though, should you continue, this game is crazy about choices, some of the things you have to do to get an ending are completely “you-might-need-a-guide” type shit, and there’s now over 40 ENDINGS.
Dude does talk for what feels like years
can't really blame him for skipping the one with the mannequin seeing as it's been a fear of his since he was a child
Fair points, the both of you.
@@aguywithgames3135 the game seems fun tho ill buy it when i get the money
They kept adding endings? I only played on release. Should I try it again?
This game is literally a narrative scavenger hunt. Even little details can make a huge difference, and there is so, so much you have left to see.
@yuertina💘⤵️ no
Dude I was like...idk like maybe 14 when the first Stanley parable came out and that shit blew my mind. Glad you're playing this even though this isn't your cup of tea.
watching afro play this is the most stressful thing i have burdened upon myself in years
man i love senju…but this gameplay was painful 😭 you just gotta take your time with your choices and see them through to the end without restarting
This is one of my top 3 favourite games, its just a shame that afro is inpatient and has discrepancies with so many aspects of the game
Its called Attentiin deficit dissorder ,sucks to have it but what can he do? At least he tried playing it for our enjoyment
generation snow flake much you think?
@@narusawa74 people who whine about snowflakes are bigger snowflakes by default
@@ziontea7045 boom
After watching him play Elden Ring, I knew he wasn't going to be able to enjoy The Stanley Parable. He talked over NPCs so much playing Elden Ring and missed so many plot points because of it that there was no way he was going to be able to play a game that literally requires him to listen to a narrator talk endlessly.
Pretty proud to be in this community with ppl that get mad at man's for not letting this absolute fucking gem of a game play out lmao
I fuck with the energy but this game really is best played calmly and slowly, there's no point in running through it. It's a whole experience.
I mean… In his defense he really wasn’t warned properly.
@@757reaper nah no defense... you can just figure that out through gameplay. for someone who runs a gaming channel he really don't know games very well
@@cal5750 he doesn't play slow paced games though. 😐
@@cal5750 sure, but this isn’t his type a game. Your comment is equivalent to comparing a martial artist to others. Let’s say Afro knows BJJ and was getting confused about Taekwondo. Your comment would be “For a martial artist, he really doesn’t know much about Taekwondo”, even though he doesn’t specialize in it
Afro doesn't read 2 sentences in a small note... Y'all really mad? Lol
Watching Afro play this is like watching my impatient 12 year old little brother play
Bruh the more afro videos I watch the more I realise this man is scared of damn near everything and does not get the most simple stuff 🤣
Love this guy
If you're confused, basically this game is a meta commentary about game design in the game with good game design. But this also a game about mind control, yet this game is also a game about a the nature of a narrative tropes in video gaming... it's also a game about the free-choice yet it's about the illusion of free choice (which is basically confusion ending). Or it's just a funny game with jokes and gags.
Even reviewers are not sure how to describe what is this game about.
We don't care
Please bro it’s not a game you have to speed run you can take your time and let the stories play out
This shit was like a first person Undertale before Undertale when it came out. Undertale had the whole Earthbound/Mother 3 aesthetic going for it though, on top multiple characters aside from, say, a single snark fueled narrator, and so it's persistence throughout the test of time was greater.
On a side note, look in the achievements. There's one that tells you to "go outside" or at least there was in the original, and the only way to get it was, no joke, close the game and don't play it for like... 5 years. It was CRAZY.
and it lectures you for going through the cheat way (aka, just changing the time on the computer)
It’s 10 years now
Nothing like undershit
The point of this game is that there isn't really a point. You could listen to the Narrator OR you could see all the options of not listening to him are. Don't expect some grandiose plot, it's more fun to just do what you want and listen to the Narrator's reaction to your actions.
That seems boring

I legit got mad when you didnt finish the first path you took. lol
8:06 re-starting before you see the game through defeats this whole game's purpose
Boo hoo 😭
@@benjaminNcottrill09 no like seriously, the game has multiple ending and restarting before you even complete a ending defeats the point of playing 💀💀
As he did not know at the time, he still could’ve thought it could have one ending(talking about that around the time he reset),with the ways you choose not affecting actual end. Which would not matter if he reset.
@@snakeking1717 boo hoo
I swear Afro freaking out over the mannequin was something else
Watching you play games is both hilarious and painful 😭😂
I really hope/wish that you would do more videos on this, I mean, the Stanley Parable just radiates chaotic energy.
Hell yea, glad you got to check this game out.
It's so far ahead of time. It's SO Good
A big theme this game explores is the idea of choice in videogames. So many videogames have "choices" that are completely meaningless and do not impact the outcome. It also explores how obedient a player will be. Will they just blindly follow everything the narrator says? Or will the explore the odd parts of the map, fiddle with doors, sit in a broom closet for seemingly no reason just to see if something happens? And how long will it take for a player to try these things? Or will they never realize they had choice to begin with?
Omg that’s why Stanley’s job is to just press buttons WE are Stanley Fuck man that’s meta
We don't care
Afro deviated from the story so much he broke the game😂
Haha. I never thought I'd see you play this, but I am so glad you did.
Dude, please keep playing more! I would love to see more footage of this!
Over a hundred views every minute from the time you uploaded. Super happy for you and where this channel is. Thanks for making mine and plenty of other peoples days. Even when you feel down, know you bring more people joy than any of us could comprehend 🙏
As much as I appreciate you Afro, please take some time to listen to the Narrator and then make your decisions.
It's not very fun when you talk over a lot during story-driven games like this, you rob both yourself and us of the experience, but if you feel like you can't change your style and you're not comfortable with it fine.
I died laughing. The amount of tears watching you play this, especially watching your perspective lmao. Hopefully you watch more endings!
17:35 😂😂😂 the way he turns around and looks at it 😂😂😂😂
When a fighting game player has to rely on his actual brain, and not just muscle memory.
Its odd, i play fighting games, souls, all the way to kingdom hearts, stanely, dreamfall longest journey, shooters like doom all the way to deus ex or half life, the witcher. Etc
If you're someone who cant understand a variety of different experiences. Then you probably have a low creative IQ
A casual action gamer* afro is a cool dude but man does he suck at gaming lol
@@TylerSmith-sd2oc its a walking similater
Afro sucks at fighting games lol
Not a fighting game player
CAN YOU FINISH AN ENDING
My favorite content creator playing one of my top 5 favorite games of all time. I was introduced to your channel when i was in 5th grade and im 18 now. i don’t know you but i hope you are doing well Afro, genuinely wish you the best bro. You’re an inspiration
Pausing @ 7:51 cuz Afro is getting heated n im laughing at the “what is this pothead game.” 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 oh poor guy
Yo Afro, love this game - makes me laugh my ass off watching others discover it, I wish I'd gotten the chance to go in blind myself back in the day! Glad you checked it out.
What the game is about you asked? Lotta things. Game design, fate, life and death, philosophy, art, buckets, illusion of choice, illusion of control, narrative and ludonarrative dissonance (from Bioshock 1 if you remember that classic), infinite holes and not so infinite holes, hype cycles and marketing machines, DLC and greedy publishers, a wild experiment in structural narrative driven design, paradoxes and the collapse of reality, suicide, pushing buttons, annoying the narrator so much you tear holes in the fabric of reality... Y'know. The usual. S**t's crazy XD seriously, you don't have to share the time playing it with us (though I'd love more vids), but you've barely scratched the surface of the iceberg - you owe it to yourself to play more of it, just to see how weird and wild it gets.
Jack=Buckets
Sounds pretty simple
Nobody cares
Honestly Afro if I was you I would play another game. I've never played this game before and watching you was frustrating because the most interesting part of the video wasn't you at all it was the narrator of the actual game. It felt like you were competing for my attention with him and he was winning.
afro posted so u know i had to stop doing what i was doing to watch it
and after watching this it was hella confusing
Man this brings me back to Markaplier EARRRLLLYYY years!! This was amazing to watch. Sadly never played it
This was painful to watch lol. Man has no chill for games like this. Go hit something with a sword lmfao 😂☠
Mannequin part had me dyin laughing and kinda disappointed at the same time lol
This game was an absolute classic back in like 2015 on youtube.
Reminds me of when hello neighbor was super popular only a few years ago.
Now we have elden ring taking vowr youtubes popularity... as much as I love elden ring, the gaming community on youtube doesn't feel the same anymore TAKE ME BACK IN TIME. 😪
17:07 LMFAO I AM SO SORRY AFRO BUT THAT WAS TOO FUNNY OH MY GOD!!!! 🤣😂🤣😂
Yoooooooo I'm so glad you played this! I love the origional and I love your letsplays! I'm tryna get my other streamer friend to do this lol
You skipped like 3 endings it’s killing me lmao
Are we not gonna talk about how Afro walked past the fern like 3 times?
Man don't know what a fern is
@@fjoltnyr2464 I don't
Bro you are one of the funniest nuggas I have ever watched! 😂
Afro I love your channel and videos and everything you do man but nothing hits like fresh bread! So damn good! You should do a cooking video of you trying to make bread
Don't get too caught up in reaching a specific destination or making specific choices. The whole point of the game is experiencing all of the different twists and turns the "narrative" takes you.
Read on people's psychedelic experiences being trapped in a loop and read on famous psychologists about being in a loop to understand the game. This game was actually a brilliant psychological insight on being trapped in a loop.
Please make another episode!! I love this confused Afro lol. :D
Afro tripn, this was hella fun n I want even playing, I think I remember this game from a few years ago
Yeah, to get the most out of the game you should slow down and enjoy the narrator's musings and ponderings.
Engage the game more by entertaining the ideas and the questions the game raises.
Do what the narrators says or don't.
Play the game and let the game play you.
No
Afro not doing the full ending and restarting is the funniest part 💀
Watching Afro play this was lowkey infuriating 😭 between him not being able to make up his mind, through disregarding potential endings because of his fear of mannequins to him not knowing wtf a fern is 💀💀💀
I remember when this game FIRST came out like 7 years ago it’s was so cool can’t wait to see how it changed
I usually don't comment on anything, but if you like it, pls, play it and record it, it's so funny to watch, this game is very very good, I wish I can play it again for the first time
Lol this game kind of clashes with the natural flow of Afro's content... Afro is VERY talkative, no offense, thats why we love him lol. But this game is a very intimate and meta experience. The relationship between the player and the narrator is VERY important!!! It certainly isnt for everybody, but I give Afro props for thinkin outside the box 💪🏾
So cool to see YOU play this game, I hope you’ll play more of this. One of my favorite game ever.
One wish i want to be granted is a full on loop game where a gaming company develop the game and where the game makes people go crazyyy just like this one.. I am in love with loop "stuff". I've talked about this before
stop quiting your runs by begining again. its better for you to just continue because there so many endings its hard to repeat endings unknowingly
I noticed in the game you have full control from the start, but the more you restart the more the narrator gains control😂😂
restarting has nothing to do with it
@@reggielacey2235 yeah I was high last night my G
Yoooooo hella excited your playing this! Your consistency even if it’s a filler is 🤌🏾💋
Watching this when i barely have any sleep is really fucking me up 😂😂
Please play this game for the channel there are so many mind blowing endings
I started watching Afro a lot and there is nothing I hate more than when he doesn’t care to enjoy or understand the game. Sure he doesn’t like to see tutorials that’s fine but the fact that he never listened to the story much and always talking over the game always like pissed me off but I’m sure this is just me.
I was mad when he started over during the dream part I wanted to see the end 😂 and his expression
Yeah, he was brushing through alot of the things. I have never seen someone play this game in such a unnatural way.
Yoooooo this shii maaaad entertaining great video bro
Afro on stanley parable is something i’d tell to my friend and they’d think i’m pranking them
Afro love the content bro but this game is all about making decisions and seeing the outcome. The entire game is based on the story which is a master piece itself but hard to appreciate if u just keep talking over the narrator. Just treat it as if u were watching an anime but instead the anime gave u different choices as the anime progressed.
Bro I'm so surprised and happy that you played this!
Bro, PLEASE do more of this.
Seeing you react to this is killing me. Lmaooo
Afro is one of those CZcamsrs that it doesn't really matter which game they're playing because you know it's always going to be a good time. Captainsauce is another one.
ur not the type of person for this game bro just don't bother lol
Please do more videos of this it’s hilarious watching you play this game!
Homey this whole video has been saying yeah I went this way so I’ll go the other way even though watching it back he never went through any of these places they were all new 😂😂
To the people who actually played this game, what are your thoughts on it?
(I only seen one person play this game and I was just as confused as they were😂)
Great game. It literally tells you that as soon as you start a “choice based” game you lose the ideal of free will. No matter what choice you make that choice is already pre-programmed and leads you into whatever the game wants you to go. Loved the idea
It's beautiful LOL I love this game. Like def top 10. The writing is great. If you follow the narrator the writing is actually lowkey moving if you just focus on it. If you don't follow the narrator the opportunity to troll the narrator and vice versa is quite hilarious. The game has a butt load of endings and the deluxe version just brought a bunch more endings
Awesome game imo. It's just really about being curious, thoughtful and exploring all options. You can get one ending and leave it or replay it to search for all endings wich is the objective of the game, though you can get bored from restarting it if you're not into this type of game so much.
But give it a try and see it for yourself, I personally like it a lot.
@@tellyg47 idk to me that’s kinda boring I get it but ehh 🤷🏿♂️ I mean like yeah it’s a game of course it’s a fixed outcome even if it a choice game because…..it’s a game😭
Boring
18:09 I've lost all respect for you as a man
Lmfao I haven't laughed so hard in so long omg this vid was needed 🤣
Afro the point of this game is about narration and story choice. You were already hitting The nail on the head when you were talking about story choice and things like that. It's about how some games pretend to have a choice, but they don't actually give you a choice and it doesn't change the story at all. Stanley parables the game with the narrators telling you a story but you can go against the narrator or you can go with him and where you diverged in the narration, changes your story and your ending and there's over 20 different plus endings. Why don't you just stay in your office for one and or stay in the room closet for some more funny endings?
Bro Afro usually I'm with your energy but this time you got me f*cked up. Slow down. Listen to the narrator and actually enjoy the experience. This ain't that type of run through game you're used to. You really had my eye twitching.
He has ADHD bro

AFRO PLAYING STANLEY PARABLE???? YEEEESS IM GONNA ENJOY IT!!!
ima be honest, i dont think i can watch you play this game;
i like your commentary, but im also trying to listen to the narrator, as well.....and it clashes, and seems frustrating to watch...
this isnt a game that i wanna hear you talk over, tbh....so ill have to play/see the game and come back to this...
EDIT: ok...after playing the game 8hrs, and coming back and being 20minutes into this video...i realize now what kinda game this is....i wont say much....but i see what your friend was talking about...
each person definitly should play it for a moment AND film themselves doing it...or find 2 or 3 different youtubers to watch play this, after their first couple hours on this game:
this game is basically a philosophy on choices in video games/life....no matter what you do, youre going to have a unique story, and every choice you make will impact the furthering of your experience and the story, regardless of whether you follow directions or not....everytime you restart...the game takes your previous run into account(narrator included)... so everytime you start from that office, its gonna be hella different..but also the same...
i got to a point where i had a "skip" button...and got the narrator to shut up forever...
