@@lucasschuble847 *GAME STRUCTURE SPOILERS, putting the rest of my comment under a cut in the interest of people who haven't watched the whole stream yet and would want to experience it completely unspoiled* The game's structure is pretty nonlinear (hence why the note at the very starts tells you there are no wrong choices) --- Your actions in Chapter One open up different Chapter Twos, which themselves can lead to Chapter Threes, again depending on player choice. You get most of the endings by bringing Her five separate vessels, and then making your final decisions, but how you get to that last stage is entirely up to you. There are several primary and secondary branches (and some Princesses and Voices) that Dan hasn't seen. ... Plus a lot of flavour text. I've 100%ed the game very recently and I'm certain I've missed some individual dialogue lines even then. :) This game has a lot of variation. (edit: grammar!)
We could've seen RT's reaction to the Contrarian letting us flip the knife in our hands, to hold it the other way! Now we'll never know what his reaction would've been...
@@brn2pil928 I can see that! "There are no wrong paths to go through, take the route you want to take" is a powerful message, especially in those types of interactive games, which usually tend to be full of bad ends -that stick- ... On the other hand, I can also see how the game could give someone a whole host of *different* trust issues :D (on the Witch path especially, this was TENSE)
I love how when you got the damsel, and she started going all "i jUSt wANT to MAKE YOU HAPPY!!!" you literally did the "let's put this mask back on" meme
RT is one of the few people i've seen play this game who, first try, slays the princess. in and out 10 minute mission EDIT: the part where he stopped stream to ask chat to stop being fucking weird around the Tower Princess is like a dad pulling the car over to talk to his kids
Honestly I’m pretty glad that he ended the route for the razor as his first one, I feel like meeting all the voices at once is less fun than meeting them individually first
I just wish he had been able to see the Smitten simp for the Razor's final form, the Razor route overall is probably the funniest in the whole game for me
@@gwest3644 It felt like the version that was the most of Birdman and The Princess. You had all the voices and she had all of her personalities at once
@@gugol1In that ending they did not leave as gods, so it is probably not what the Narrator was referring to. I think for that to happen rt would need to accept the offer to leave from the "god mode" princess.
And to be honest? I think all the endings are canon. They're eldritch gods unknowable to man after all, there's a possibility of all outcomes happening all at once so no ending is better or more official than the other. Still prefer the Leave end, though. Who cares about godhood, birb just wants to be with the love of their life ☺️
Just bought the game solely to follow the routes and dialog I could tell he skipped. Apparently, I just instinctively pay unneeded attention to games now. Damn you, indie horror. I will never be able to just have fun casually with a game again.
I listen to RT and the Magnus Archives to help me fall asleep. The Narrator is the main voice actor for the Magnus Archives. This is a perfect medley of sleepy time voices for me, lol.
At the time of reading the comments, I was halfway or so and didn't understand. After watching all of it, I think the ending he got was right. FOR. THE. SMITTEN.
I'm glad I turned of stream to play this myself first. It was nice not to get spoiled on what happens. I recommend it going in blindly really lets you carve your own story almost into a reflection of yourself
**IMPORTANT PLS READ TO AVOID DEMONITIZATION!!** I havent watched yet so sorry if this is already addressed, but huge warning if you upload a video of this. Any scene where the princess looses her arm (via blade, but especially the OTHER way,) HAS to be censored. Showing the arm after is fine, but youtube has been going after all youtubers playing this game for that scene.
Why that scene in particular I wonder? There's WAY gorier scenes in this game (like Fury literally having an exposed heart and UNWINDING YOUR ORGANS with a snap) and ((Spoilers for routes Dan didn't see)) A literal head getting sliced off much more gruesomely. Heck, there's even a vore scene in one path, and one involving burning alive. The arm getting sliced is TAME for this game
@@drawingdragonoh youtube has been going after those scenes as well. I watch another youtuber and he had to reupload one of his videos bc of one if those scenes
@@drawingdragon im not sure about that one, Manlybadasshero is the person I watched this series for and he hit that ending in an episode after the biting through the arm thing. He censored that bit preemptively.
I am so excited that Dan played this - I'd also recommend he try Scarlet Hollow (also from Black Tabby Games) it's a fantastic horror-comedy visual novel with the most interesting choice system I've seen, and would make for a fantastic stream!
I love Scarlet Hollow so I was excited about Slay the Princess's release, and I've been playing it for the past few days as some sort of late Halloween celebration... "RT would be all over this game, I hope it pings his radar" crossed my mind on about my 8th playthrough, so I feel ya. :) Looking forward to watching the stream, this ought to be good!
I wish the chat was visible at the start because I want to know how many people in chat were absolutely flabbergasted by Jonathan Sims’ voice like I was
Don't you just wish there was a Stanley Parable/Slay The Princess crossover just to have the competing narrators try to twist reality back and forth. One trying for story beats and the other just trying to get the only NPC killed.
I would like to see how the princess may be altered by Stanley's perceptions of her and maybe have the cabin and office merge due to the looping nature of both games.
@@SwagSwagSenate Oh yeah, that vaguely Russian guy that just wants you to leave and never come back. He'd be like the worse case scenario for this narrator...
half the things Jonathan Sims said, as the narrator in this, I could picture it being applied to Jonathan Sims. the overlaps of eldritch horror and forbidden knowledge
You know, I noticed something. The Narrator says you're in pain. The voices talk about pain but being able to work through it. But the protag only acknowledges pain in an emotional sense talking to the arm entity thing. He never mentions physical pain, just like how the Princess doesn't react most of the time.
According to the game wiki's trivia section one of the directions for the voice actress for that section was literally "dommy mommy" so it was by design.
Wait, RT is asexual? Also I don't think it's inherently asexual, I think people were just being creepy and it's enough to make anyone uncomfortable, asexual or not.
RT you were supposed to slay the princess, not lay her 😂 The ending he got was honestly so sweet tho 😭 I have to get this game now and try to 100% it lol
As both a woman and a professional girl liker, i am happy to say that it is incapable of me to be weird about simping for fictitious women. If you do find grievance with this you can talk with my agents. I am just doing my job.
I'm absolutely with you, sometimes I forget that not everyone is a lesbian (or bi/pan!) simping hardcore for every lady. and oh boy there were *a lot* of lovely women in this game 😍
"it is incapable of me to be weird about simping for fictitious women". So are you incapable of not simping, or are you incapable of not finding simping weird?
@@TeacupDragon33 HELL YEAH Honestly The Princess is the absolute hottest eldrich being in any form of media she is LITERALLY everything And I think the fact the story is made from the perspective of a god who was only made for her and her only added to the romance (regardless of if we were supposed to kill her or not)
Without getting weirder than I must, I will say the Voice of the Broken can have the name replaced with Voice of the Lesbian and that will have full immersion for me.
Voice of the Broken was Voice of the "I Don't Care Anymore, Nothing Matters, Let Me Go Crawl Into My Hole And Just Die, Please..." ....until he met the Tower. THEN it full-on turned into "Voice of the Submissive". XD
A good deal into this, and the pattern I've noticed is this. If you die, you add a voice. If the Princess lives, you go to the Mirror. So I do wonder if there's a way to get all the voices before going to the Mirror.
I think most people consider thorn the best, and I don't disagree, but networked wild is really interesting in its own right. it's so directly connected to the game's larger story
Now that I've looked up some other endings that people I've watched play this, multiple, have STILL missed, I kinda wonder how the chat would've reacted to The Apotheosis. Would they STILL have wanted Mommy Black Hole to swallow them up in her gravity well, like "oh yes, Mommy, spaghettify me!" or would that finally have been _too_ big of a lady for at least some of them? :P (Not all. The LITERAL black hole picture from 2019 was drawn into a character, and many people thought _that_ was hot, so...)
My dinky ass brain not realizing that this game just came out: Okay, what the fuck is going on. I heard of this game when it came out, but never played it or watched a playthrough. TH-cam Reccommends it to me, and I watch a rando's first few seconds, but then stop. The next day, Yesterday, a tiny streamer that I really enjoy, posta a vod of this game. Today, I watch that vod. I come back to my subscriptuons page, AND HERE WE ARE. Are you trying to tell me something, universe?
There are only two voice actors in the entire game, one for the Narrator and the voices (Jonathan Sims) and one for the Princess in all her forms (Nichole Goodnight).
RT should just make a "Chat is too WEIRD" penalty, where whenever a majority of the Chat's filled with sexual words, he doesn't play the game/locks chat for 20 minutes.
There are better ways to disincentivize a behavior in a group of people than that. He’d be doing a terrible move as a streamer and towards the rest of his audience for that. The people being horny aren’t even inherently a problem themselves just the intensity of the behavior.
@@AnInsideJoke besides, they were not being overly graphic, just being goofy, and RT treated like the chat was screaming the n-word or some shit like that
@@dnidaz2553 .........Do you think Dan's reaction to his chat screaming the n-word would be mild irritation and a finger wag? Because I am three million percent sure it wouldn't be.
Voice of the Broken was Voice of the Depressed until he met Big Lady. THEN he turned into the Voice of "Oh yes Mommy STEP on me Mommy yes oh yes my mistress YES" aka the Voice of the -Submissive- Chat. :P
i just went onto your twitter as i noticed it on the stream starting soon screen and realised i wasn’t following you. 9:29 and i shit you not i scrolled down 1 tweet and saw you saying ‘if twitter gets removed, you want people to know that people called you the drift king back in college’. and it lined up perfectly to you saying it here on the video 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that’s made my day
Okay, why didn't the Narrator imbue the hero with lethal kungfu and try to have him kill her barehanded in the Damsel route? Or is "a weapon" that important? (He doesn't emphasize that the hero specifically needs the blade for some reason there. Just "a weapon".)
The protagonist shapes the world(well and the voices but they are him). The narrator only gives cues about what is and the protag in turn manifests it. I think the narrator leans so heavily on the weapon because convicing someone that they would be able to killl someone with a knive is far easier then making him think that he was a martial arts master all along.
I wonder if the pristine blade has Plot significance that I still haven't figured out. There's a heavy emphasis placed on it for sure, as if it's the ONLY way the princess can really be killed. Other routes Dan didn't take and other endings make it seem like it's pivotal to the world of the game
@@drawingdragon it's not SPECIFICALLY the pristine blade that's so important, but the idea that it should be. you have a nice little knife and you think you can use it to kill a god, therefore you can. the only reason it always shows up is because it's built into the construct, just like the cabin. there's no reason *why* it's a cabin or a princess or a basement or a knife. they're just the way it manifested to you
The narrator’s control of the world and character is somewhat limited, and it dwindles with time. He can lock a door or take control of the protagonist early on, but he’s constrained to mostly-plausible things and the protagonist can override it to some degree. Both the protagonist and the princess have a stronger influence on reality than the narrator ever can, so the best he can do is a stabbing. The protag’s belief also factors in a lot. He doesn’t believe that he can kill the princess with his bare hands, so he can’t, but he does believe the blade can kill the princess, because of logic and because he’s been told so.
The game where backseating and spoilers is the least of your concern, Dan shouldn't have been as surprised when people were being horny in chat whenever she was in a dominant form but at least it was compensated when certain voices came up
30:19 Hey now, Mr., Ms., Mrs., Mx., or otherwise The Narrator, birds are people too. why is the princess talking to me and calling me little... hmm... 2:44:22 ARE we a bird? 2:59:29 seems like a consistent theme... 1:56:25 what's wrong here And what was wrong the second time we didn't even see chat that time 2:20:15 Godblessyou! x2 3:04:51 Godblessyou! x2 10 of 97+32 achievements? then why is there a video out, and why is there only this one four hour vod? 2:31:37 >:o 2:36:17 Yeah, what RT said, that was comically abrupt lol "Voice of the Cold" is interesting considering she always feels cold before the hands take her away... Especially since their goal is the same as the title. oooo yeah this "Cold" motif is going hard...! 3:39:31 ohhh ok at least we'll see AN ending. I guess having this sort of system makes every run a lot more personallized and helps narrow the scope of a "full" playthrough for non-completionists. 4:03:17 wh- THE NARRATOR IS A BIRD?! THE ENDING HAVING ALL THE ENDINGS IS SO COOL AND- AGUHIAGHiuagushihuifhaishiasfai so good so good fsgdrfgdgdf 4:32:35 at least he said it was understandable, cuz that first time at the very least wasn't all that intense.
maybe i'm just hard of hearing, but the music is way too loud and the dialogue is too low. i get that he wanted the music to be a bit overbearing, but man is it hard to hear the VA AND Dan at the same time. This didn't happen with Persona or Ace Attorney so idk what happened. this isn't a critique or hate, btw. just voicing something that I noticed.
I often struggle with similar things due to an auditory processing disorder, where I can't separate layers of sound. If there's multiple conversations going on, I will hear a mishmash of voices and words, often unintelligible - similar results with too loud background noise, even if it isn't necessarily louder than whatever conversation I'm trying to listen to
Usually Dan has to lock the chat so people dont back seat, now he had to lock chat so they don't try to make their back a seat for a large radiant lady
I don't think he actually locked chat, did he?
@@SevenVT12He made it sub only for a large part of the stream.
Yeah- it calmed down so much after that 😂 but I was sad I couldn’t talk to chat too
@@Norseowl_Jae but the problem *was* the subs!
@kitakita545 yep that's the sad part - that the simping subs only shut up once they'd cost everyone else their speaking rights
like, istg they made up more than two thirds of the simpers at that point
....and then they went on to say how much better chat is, now that rt "fixed" stuff by locking the weirdos out
like... c'mon chat, my guys, my siblings in arms, my gentlepeeps, IT WAS LITERALLY MOSTLY THE PEOPLE YOU'RE STILL CHATTING WITH WHO WOULDN'T STOP SIMPING
but at the same time let's be honest: it did work to shut the simpers up, so rt obvs did the right thing.
just messed up that subs had to be cowed into compliance like that via "well i don't want him to shut chat entirely, now that he's proven it's not just empty threats" - like maybe it's just me, but i expected better from subs, because they're the people who are supposed to be used to his streams and to the fact that _of course_ there'll be consequences!
but nope, they just kept on pushing....
...and here i am, ranting about it as if it's even truly noteworthy instead of just chat being chat, just with the number of subs more inflated than before ig lmao
so uh... sorry for this random rant, fellow stranger, hope your day is going grand and only gets even better from here on out

"it is incapable of me to be weird about simping for fictitious women". So are you incapable of not simping, or are you incapable of not finding simping weird?
@@RasmusVJS it's impossible to call my simping weird, it's my career
@@TeacupDragon33 HELL YEAH
Honestly The Princess is the absolute hottest eldrich being in any form of media she is LITERALLY everything
And I think the fact the story is made from the perspective of a god who was only made for her and her only added to the romance (regardless of if we were supposed to kill her or not)
That was a hell of a ride... What a surprising game. I assume RT won't be doing any more but I'd love to see more!
Maybe he will do another
Playthrough once the free dlc comes out
Nice to see that some of the characters can overpower the narrator
Without getting weirder than I must, I will say the Voice of the Broken can have the name replaced with Voice of the Lesbian and that will have full immersion for me.
Voice of the Broken was Voice of the "I Don't Care Anymore, Nothing Matters, Let Me Go Crawl Into My Hole And Just Die, Please..."
....until he met the Tower. THEN it full-on turned into "Voice of the Submissive". XD
A good deal into this, and the pattern I've noticed is this. If you die, you add a voice. If the Princess lives, you go to the Mirror. So I do wonder if there's a way to get all the voices before going to the Mirror.
Yes there is! 2 routes can collect all the voices before heading to a mirror
Out of all of Dan’s streams, this one most of all would I like to be able to see the chat 😂
I love how Dan has to specify the princess, anyway I hope ends up experiencing the rest of the routes
Smitten sounds like Matt Berry and I love it
ahhhh I love this game!! I was there live and i'm so excited to rewatch it again!
Amazing how this could have been a Halloween special or a valentines special
@2:41:16 smitten start... your welcome future me and others :P...
-_- thank you past me... grateful mate...
There's quite a few other routes aside from the ones RT got to. The Razor is probably my favorite.
Razor and thorn are the best ones for me
I think most people consider thorn the best, and I don't disagree, but networked wild is really interesting in its own right. it's so directly connected to the game's larger story
Man, Dan's the first person I've seen make it to the Fury's Meat Mountain. That place is fucking cool. I blame the music.
It reminds of the Crimson from Terraria. I blame the flesh
Now that I've looked up some other endings that people I've watched play this, multiple, have STILL missed, I kinda wonder how the chat would've reacted to The Apotheosis.
Would they STILL have wanted Mommy Black Hole to swallow them up in her gravity well, like "oh yes, Mommy, spaghettify me!" or would that finally have been _too_ big of a lady for at least some of them? :P (Not all. The LITERAL black hole picture from 2019 was drawn into a character, and many people thought _that_ was hot, so...)
My dinky ass brain not realizing that this game just came out:
Okay, what the fuck is going on.
I heard of this game when it came out, but never played it or watched a playthrough. TH-cam Reccommends it to me, and I watch a rando's first few seconds, but then stop.
The next day, Yesterday, a tiny streamer that I really enjoy, posta a vod of this game.
Today, I watch that vod. I come back to my subscriptuons page, AND HERE WE ARE.
Are you trying to tell me something, universe?
it's definitely a sign, you gotta play the game for yourself now too!!
See how all voices are British, save for one: the princess', which is in fact, American
This is actually "Slay the American". What does it mean?
There are only two voice actors in the entire game, one for the Narrator and the voices (Jonathan Sims) and one for the Princess in all her forms (Nichole Goodnight).
Honestly I wouldn't even mind if he plays through the game again.
That ending is still my favorite.
even though this game is quite tragic, it is beautiful in the end
Jonathon sims being the narrator is so strange to hear after listening to the magnus archives, like wtf are you doing here jon
Dan having to stop the down bad lesbians and bis in the chat is sending me 💀
1:56:23 chat caught in 4k
12:18 is when the video starts all, have a wonderful experience (:
RT should just make a "Chat is too WEIRD" penalty, where whenever a majority of the Chat's filled with sexual words, he doesn't play the game/locks chat for 20 minutes.
Otherwise known as being a massive killjoy
That would kill basically every future stream. You can't just un-horny the internet, man. It's impossible.
There are better ways to disincentivize a behavior in a group of people than that. He’d be doing a terrible move as a streamer and towards the rest of his audience for that. The people being horny aren’t even inherently a problem themselves just the intensity of the behavior.
@@AnInsideJoke besides, they were not being overly graphic, just being goofy, and RT treated like the chat was screaming the n-word or some shit like that
@@dnidaz2553 .........Do you think Dan's reaction to his chat screaming the n-word would be mild irritation and a finger wag? Because I am three million percent sure it wouldn't be.
not gonna lie I got *really* invested in the story with the broken and the stubborn, it was definitely the best route I think.
voice of the broken? more like voice of the simp
No no that's voice of the smitten lmao
more like voice of the twitch chat
at least voice of the smitten got the girl eventually
Smitten is the simp. Broken is the cuck.
Voice of the Broken was Voice of the Depressed until he met Big Lady.
THEN he turned into the Voice of "Oh yes Mommy STEP on me Mommy yes oh yes my mistress YES" aka the Voice of the -Submissive- Chat. :P
i just went onto your twitter as i noticed it on the stream starting soon screen and realised i wasn’t following you. 9:29 and i shit you not i scrolled down 1 tweet and saw you saying ‘if twitter gets removed, you want people to know that people called you the drift king back in college’. and it lined up perfectly to you saying it here on the video 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 that’s made my day
1:45:11 when it all UNRAVELED 🤣🤣🤣
FOOOOOORRRRR THEEEEEE SMIIIITTEEENNNNNN
Why am I watching this before bed???
I JUST SAW THIS IN MY TH-cam RECS YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE THE GASP THEN EXITED MY LUNGS
I vote he should play this game again and see what other routes he can discover.
Agreed, especially when the Pristine Cut update finally dropped on this Fall 2024!
please play the rest of this on stream this will be the only way i see this game
Okay, why didn't the Narrator imbue the hero with lethal kungfu and try to have him kill her barehanded in the Damsel route? Or is "a weapon" that important? (He doesn't emphasize that the hero specifically needs the blade for some reason there. Just "a weapon".)
The protagonist shapes the world(well and the voices but they are him). The narrator only gives cues about what is and the protag in turn manifests it. I think the narrator leans so heavily on the weapon because convicing someone that they would be able to killl someone with a knive is far easier then making him think that he was a martial arts master all along.
I wonder if the pristine blade has Plot significance that I still haven't figured out. There's a heavy emphasis placed on it for sure, as if it's the ONLY way the princess can really be killed. Other routes Dan didn't take and other endings make it seem like it's pivotal to the world of the game
@@drawingdragon it's not SPECIFICALLY the pristine blade that's so important, but the idea that it should be. you have a nice little knife and you think you can use it to kill a god, therefore you can. the only reason it always shows up is because it's built into the construct, just like the cabin. there's no reason *why* it's a cabin or a princess or a basement or a knife. they're just the way it manifested to you
The narrator’s control of the world and character is somewhat limited, and it dwindles with time. He can lock a door or take control of the protagonist early on, but he’s constrained to mostly-plausible things and the protagonist can override it to some degree. Both the protagonist and the princess have a stronger influence on reality than the narrator ever can, so the best he can do is a stabbing. The protag’s belief also factors in a lot. He doesn’t believe that he can kill the princess with his bare hands, so he can’t, but he does believe the blade can kill the princess, because of logic and because he’s been told so.
@@chickenelafsworld7105
Hell, in one of the more godlike perspectives, doesn't he get completely overtaken by the princess and puppeted?
1:56:28 LORD CHAT TOUCH GRASS
2:45:00 before I fall asleep
Edit: I ended up watching the whole thing but the last Cutscene before I fell asleep
saw this on steam a couple weeks ago and was wondering if RT would play it! excited to watch this one
For the smitten
Game is fairly dark
And fairly sweet
The game where backseating and spoilers is the least of your concern, Dan shouldn't have been as surprised when people were being horny in chat whenever she was in a dominant form but at least it was compensated when certain voices came up
RT talks 1:45
yo I am SO HAPPY he played this I LOVE this game I love this game

For the Smitten!

I'm like this game already, it gives ability to speedrun it with jokes.
is the narrator the guy from the magnus archives?
Ye!
nah, this is Jonathan Sims- you're thinking of Jonathan Sim's monster, Jonathan Sims
Listening to this because i just found out jonny sims is the narrator
that was an absolute joy-ride. I love it.
JONATHON SIMS????
30:19 Hey now, Mr., Ms., Mrs., Mx., or otherwise The Narrator, birds are people too.
why is the princess talking to me and calling me little... hmm... 2:44:22 ARE we a bird? 2:59:29 seems like a consistent theme...
1:56:25 what's wrong here
And what was wrong the second time we didn't even see chat that time
2:20:15 Godblessyou! x2 3:04:51 Godblessyou! x2
10 of 97+32 achievements? then why is there a video out, and why is there only this one four hour vod?
2:31:37 >:o
2:36:17 Yeah, what RT said, that was comically abrupt lol
"Voice of the Cold" is interesting considering she always feels cold before the hands take her away... Especially since their goal is the same as the title.
oooo yeah this "Cold" motif is going hard...!
3:39:31 ohhh ok at least we'll see AN ending. I guess having this sort of system makes every run a lot more personallized and helps narrow the scope of a "full" playthrough for non-completionists.
4:03:17 wh- THE NARRATOR IS A BIRD?!
THE ENDING HAVING ALL THE ENDINGS IS SO COOL AND- AGUHIAGHiuagushihuifhaishiasfai so good so good fsgdrfgdgdf
4:32:35 at least he said it was understandable, cuz that first time at the very least wasn't all that intense.
an absolute masterpiece :)
It's so hard taking the narrator seriously when all I hear is Jon Sims
Shame he never got to play the Thorn route.
Daneshiro would probably be even more onboard of the princess destroying the world if she somehow worked in child labour.
For the Smitten...
Damn, he got the best ending
What happened to the main channel video? I can't find it anywhere, did it get taken down?
It's weird, searching does not bring any results except for the VOD, but it is still on the channel: /watch?v=6EviDgptFHY
maybe i'm just hard of hearing, but the music is way too loud and the dialogue is too low. i get that he wanted the music to be a bit overbearing, but man is it hard to hear the VA AND Dan at the same time. This didn't happen with Persona or Ace Attorney so idk what happened. this isn't a critique or hate, btw. just voicing something that I noticed.
I often struggle with similar things due to an auditory processing disorder, where I can't separate layers of sound. If there's multiple conversations going on, I will hear a mishmash of voices and words, often unintelligible - similar results with too loud background noise, even if it isn't necessarily louder than whatever conversation I'm trying to listen to
1:46:12
And this is the moment I started simping 💀
