- In this video I talk about the post apocalyptic world of Stray, its robots, monsters, and its cute cats.
Highly recommend !

BGM: Stray OST
Get the game on Steam! - Hry
Stray is really breath of fresh about within the post-apocalyptic genre, because there isn't a lot of games that focus from the animal's pov and how affect them.
Human exctinction would be the best thing that could happen to animals tbh
Animals will thrive naturally once us humans are gone.
@@Cashewcream Yep and probably better if humans were gone
@@Cashewcream I agree fully.
I only wish that we could've had a mode where we could explore all the places after finishing the game, just to go back and talk to the free bots, or just to explore again and just be a cat with no mission but to explore and chill.
Hopefully they'll pull a Death Stranding/The Last of Us II and have a big patch that adds some extra modes like that.
I agree
you can lol
@@adrenalinebmx8794 You can’t though. Once you finish the game that’s that. And you can’t go back to previous sections once you’ve reached a new one- unless there’s been an update?
@@adrenalinebmx8794 you can? did they release an update?
I expected a cute little cat game to pass the time...not a gorgeously-rendered, full-blown post-apocalyptic wasteland with a story and quest to put Mario Odyssey levels to shame. What a ride
I loved this game, though to be fair my being a cat-person might’ve influenced my opinion very heavily. Anyway, one thing I did feel when roaming around the Walled City was.. depression. Depression and dread. The claustrophobic nature of the infrastructure was really depressing to look at, but I felt a connection to all the robots who somehow inherited what made humans humans: emotions.
I wish this game was a bit longer, but maybe the length is exactly what it needed to be. I didn’t pay for it, since I’m subscribed to PS Plus Premium, but this game 100% is worth people’s money.
What’s it like being half human half cat
I wonder, is humanity extinct or has left the city or has digitalized itself like b12?
1. In the control room, everything is very neat. Show that they leave in an orderly manner.
2. During the game, we can see many white chambers similar to the one in the secret room we found b12
only one room had access to only humans. Why everything else was neat was because the companions kept it neat and tidy. They probably threw the dead bodies from the plague into an incinerator and then continued on with their programmed duties.
@@clan741 At the Control Room, there is a protocol forbidding robots from entering
@@duckysgt yeah but thats just one room. I don’t think it being clean proves they digitized themselves. Its also not the place they’d throw their papers around and knock over cups.
Best game in many aspects even tge NPCs don't feel like NPCs. They feel human.
The first time I saw a screenshot of the game I thought it was a simulator and that helps the game to be even more surprising. If someone plays expecting a post-apocalyptic scenario, it may not have the same impact, although the visuals and animations are admirable. They were right about making the player always curious about what will come next. Now I'm curious about the world outside and can't avoid any videos talking about it. :)
Idk i still find it wierd that the Companions just gained sentience.. they seem to remember things like smells.. so what if some of them are uploaded like b-12?
DING DING DING - they haven't "evolved" - they ARE human, they are uploaded into the system just like the Doc/B12 was - that's the difference, the ones that are still "base" didn't get over written - so nothing has "evolved", they are just doing what they used to do since the process seems far from perfect.
I completed it, got all the badges and all the memories. Still here.
Def A LOT longer than 7 million years. 2 BIG clues. 1. Look at the clocks (Time Will Tell clue). They are 16 hour clocks, so 32 hour days. When will the earth’s rotation slow to 32 hour days? 2.3 billion years from now. Another clue; at the end, when they show you a picture of the earth and where the city is, look at the continents; they look NOTHING like they do today.
I feel lile you get a background idea of what life is like and it provides a bit of mystery too. They should have done more with the cat but they did enough to be satisfying. The view is incredible and we get to view a dystopia kind of environment
PS. I don't believe 7 million years for an instant. Only fossils would remain
I was surprised that someone else felt that Stray was similar to Little Nightmares
I didn’t have any expectations about this game, but as I was playing it, I liked it more and more and after I finished it I loved it. What a beautiful game! ❤
I'm kinda surprised that reviewers aren't seeing parallels with anime films like Ghost in the Shell, Akira, Paprika, and the series Attack on Titan. Post apocalyptic worlds where humans have created destructive chaos either through trying to enhance human consciousness through biomechanical means, seriously advanced AI or genetic engineering OR in the pursuit of ending war and cultural dissension by making the ultimate weapon/doomsday device. Attack on Titan has walled cities to protect humans from giant human like drones that may have been made by biochemistry and possibly magic? And, of course, ignoring the obvious detrimental harm that has been done by pollution and waste mismanagement because it is inconvenient for the rich and would cost them too much to address it in any kind of meaningful way. Thoughts and prayers, Ya'll, thoughts and prayers...
Human pov : world is broken
Cat pov : lot of hole to go in and nap
I'm no game designer.. But I remember wanting to make a gta type open world set in the serengetti.. No human characters just animals.. And you would be able to play as different animals, herbivores and predators
I would play that.
I’ve only gotten 2 journals for momo, so I’ll have to come back and watch this. Loving the game so far though
This was great, Thank You!
cats will be the new generation in this game
Just to add, there's some clocks in 12 hour count, but rare to appear, could be an oversight. You can find one near the bed from that nerd robot we take the code and the tracker to be fixed.
This game is great, I’ll admit I was hoping for more of the cat aspect, being able to just chill and mess with people, specifically humans, but either way, this was still fun
“If you like the games like little nightmares you will like this one”
*EXCUSE ME HOW DID YOU KNOW WHAT*
What bugs me is the use of CRT monitors - we have phased these out now - so why have they come back in the future?
They’re cuter as robot heads.
Fallout aesthetic lol
I found an article once that said the city in Stray was inspired by a real city in China called Kowloon, a walled city.
Kowloon has no physical walls it’s just very dense
@@arshu_parshu1999 Oh, ok. In the article I read it called Kowloon a walled city, sorry for any misunderstanding
@@soleyalexandravalbergsdott3126 maybe I can’t really spot walls covering the city
Edit: Wikipedia says there’s no visible wall but the way it looks makes it look like it was made in a compact room
@@arshu_parshu1999 Oh ok
Very good game. Sad but same time entertaining
Honestly this game looks pretty interesting also you can play as my fellow Felines. That’s cool.😺
5:38 "...and reunite with our cat family?" It does not happen in the game...
We dont have to be shown everything. We can safely assume he went back to his family
Since the clocks had 16 digits a day should have had 32 hours and since we know that the earth spins slower as time goes by it should have been 7 million years later and not 300 years later because then it would have only been 25 hours per day.
I ain't no scientist don't come for me i just thought I'd share my hypothesis
There's no way in hell that robots and cats evolved to new stages and a bacteria grew to a animal in a few hundred years.. Millions make more sense.. It would also explain why we don't even see a human skeleton anywhere.. There are many levels with no zorks that probably would have skeletons if it was just a few centuries later
Well my interpretation of the 16h clocks was that this world is inherited now by machines who evolved beyond what they were programmed too and designed their own world. But how are machines, in our world, programmed? Via binary code or, which is also quite common, via hexadecimal code. Hence the 16 units to a day :)
I don’t understand how you keep saying “I will not spoil” while spoiling the story anyway lol. Great explanation though, I just wish you did go into the things you left out… future video?
He probably meant the finer details of the game
Because _oh my god_ there's so much personality to the Companions
@@baimhakani oh for sure!! I’m curious though, can the cat understand b12 (you react to him) or is he talking to himself and everything is a coincidence the cat is complying?
I don’t believe that it take place 7 million years into the future. Case in point, paper & cardboard wouldn’t last 7 million years.
Him: full spoilers
Also him: I’ll keep that a secret
Also him: 13:21
"The world of Stray explained"
"There will be full spoilers ahead."
"I'm not going to spoil anything."
So what was the point?
China or India? Stray sets in the Slums...
It's supposed to be a fictional Hong Kong. It was called HK Project in 2015.
As technology advances, at some point in time, game designers will just find it simpler when making a game to press a button to create the universe.
**SPOILER ALERT**
I just wanted to see our little stray be reunited with his family, he earned it.
The cat did. czcams.com/video/tEOEczZQHbo/video.html
Stop saying buy the game andt you say nothing about the ending
That’s so fucking stupid, why cover a game and spoil the ending but not even give context for the story beats 💀
This video game kind of ripped off the story from the movie 9. Which was animated using Valve's Source engine.
The scientist had put his soul into 9 puppets to fight AI robots.
Nah
It doesn't. The story is completly different.
Jay Clarke that's a different story you mut.
Transferring human memories to robots already existed since the late 50s. 9 movie was released in 2009 so your argument that Stray is a ripoff of 9 movie is wrong.
