Nah I'm pretty sure Cry just made it up, I think he mentions it in episode 1-2, if you wanna go check it out. Also, since we see that the blob cannot move, when it took no time to recover after terrible falls before, we can arrive at two conclusions: 1 - The fall killed the kid, which was controlling the blob, and now, without it's control it can't move, and can only squirm around, it's arms move just because it's their instinct to move. 2 - The fall and movement caused the kid to fall unconscious. So he's still alive and he'll wake up but still be inside the blob, but now the blob is "unconscious" too, for now. I really don't see a situation where the kid escapes. I think the only way for him to escape is with the human's help, and they certainly don't want to help.
+Angry Skeletor The blob is also much smaller now, and is missing most of its limbs. The last fall was obviously the worst of all and did quite a number to it. It can also be assumed that it simply cannot move anymore due to lack of limbs.
Taylor M. Collette Oh right. That I did not notice, I thought the blob looked smaller because the grass it was in was really tall. However if the kid was alive/awake, he could at least cause the blob to struggle impotently.
Dude, i laughed so much when he said that at the very ending. That was great. Weird game though, especially how the water physics were at some point. That was just trippy, man. Good game though. Weird ending though. Was humorous though! I feel like I'm satisfied by the overall game!
yeah it is never free - everything was planned for it to end up on the beach. the intire game is about control and the illusion of being in control/free.
SPOILERS EXPLANATION OF THE END The Blob was controlling some innocent people to free its self. You can see many dead bodies of the people that didnt made on your way to it. A poor boy was mind controlled an made all the way and got absorbed into the Blob (he was probably mentally dead already like the other slaves). At the end the Blob was outside and free. Edit: Ok so people pointed out that at the model there was miniature of the Blob (instead of just being a model of the base outside), so its implied that the slavers knew this would happen and were just guiding it to a bigger cage. So in the end the chain of control is : boy
Hey cry there's another ending with all of those achievements, if you get all of them you go back to one of the first ones and open a door and break the final one. When you do, the kid scrunches up like the husks do when they have nothing controlling them, giving the hint that the kid was a husk, and that's why he was able to be absorbed into the Swedish meatball
The guy at 29:25 is actually able to be saved. If you're a good person, you can slowly approach him, and he takes the hint and dives to the left. I really like this, because I didn't want to hurt a single person as the hive.
+Keiko Long well you don't know for sure if the experiments were done on humans just because they look humanoid. Most of us probably wouldn't blink once if we had the same mechanisms using e.g. tiny boxes who follow us everywhere and help us. The humanoids just look so fucked up and remind us of ourselves and that's why I think it looks cruel. But we don't even know if there's a being/soul inside of 'em.
I personally think that the kid wasn't completely a puppet thing until after that section in the water where that rope thingy gets him when the mermaid person drags him under water, because after that he's able to survive w/out breathing and I'm pretty sure his posture was more slouched like the other puppet things were.
What I think is that The kid was working on its own for the whole time until the mermaid thing had strangled him and then they both began to sink into an abyss of sorts and the yellow machine had strapped itself to the boy. I think that the yellow light was the thing that allows the humanoid things ( In my perspective I think the humanoid beings are just dead. ) to be controlled. Because lets deal with it, The kid had obviously died because all the other times you come across a mermaid thing you die. This time there shouldn't be any exceptions. And because of that, the kid is allowed to be controlled because they wont show resistance. And that's when they changed motives and decided to set the mob free. But idk.
Did you notice that the exhibit cry's blob fell into was a structure kind of the place wear the blob lands in the end? That means that the blob was planned to get there by humans
Yep, it's exactly the same, even has that lit spot you're supposed to fall into. One of the theories is that no matter how much you tried to escape the experiment, no matter how much you looked for a way out, you are still INSIDE.
I don't think it was planned entirely. After all the blob killed the CEO. I think they planned for the blob to escape but they couldn't foresee how it would happen.
The blob was the hivemind controlling the little boy to come and free itself. That's why the little boy was so determined to walk all the way to the blob without stopping or even thinking about it. Then the blob makes it outside, it is no lomger "inside" like the tidal says. It has finally reached it's goal, it is finally free, and so the game ends.
That's not a play on words though (Pun). It's just stating a factual observation. A play on words is like "I wasn't planning on a brain transplant, but then I changed my mind." It's a sentence that works in more ways than one.
Old playthrough, but I think the game's message to the player is the illusion of control. However, the story inside the game seems to me like the world is in a wartime. All the technology could be construed for war uses. The shockwaves earlier could be a huge wartime weapon and the parasites infecting the animals from the beginning could be a developing form of biological warfare. I think the "zombies," for lack of a better term, at the country's own civilians, somehow turned into mindless husks by the government and tested for their physical ability (the line). The merpeople, maybe a way to attack by sea? I dunno, something about the colors reminds me of a wartime I guess.
I guess the guy was destined to be the one who controls the meatball. That's why he could go in 1 direction, that's why the naked guys help you etc. They know you're their leader, maybe? The people who work at the alien-place wanted to catch you so they could accomplish creating the meatball faster. The dogs who wanted to kill you, are just trained to kill whatever comes on their path. The guys who work there (and who were looking at you gave up in the end, because you were going to the meatball anyway, they figured. Also: the place where 'it' ends, looks like the 'it' was meant to be there. It looks so artificial, like a place in the ZOO that's made for observing animals etc.
Stealthy Mery Hence why I said for medical purposes. It's more commonplace these days for beauty/hygiene products to not test on animals though, so at least things are improving on that end.
Nayday I think it's best you let things go. Whatever feelings you have about our quite irrelevant conversation, or about this person's comment, are highly unnecessary. If you feel the need to express your thoughts so badly, leaving a passive aggressive, vague comment isn't a good way to do so. Saying nothing at all, as I've already told you, is sometimes better than what you personally feel the need to vocalize.
SPOILER: It's a commentary on your lack of real control in any given game - even as a player. The secret ending has you disconnect a mind control unit from the floor which has the Boy deactivate not unlike all the mindless people in the game do in a similar fashion. But it also has you, the player, deactivate too by virtue of ending the game. The blob monster is the amalgamation of every player who will play this game with the developers of the game represented by the staff of the facility who guide you toward their own end. It's just now they're doing it more directly instead of leaving you buttons and other environmental puzzles. Just imagine what it would look like with every player character overlaid in any given game. It would be a blob monster and one that acts toward the exact same purpose albeit in similar though slightly different ways. Really, this blob monster is how any given game developer needs to view their audience. Of course, you win by going outside a la the Stanley Parable. The only difference between playing a video game and doing what you're told is your choice. The developers of both Inside and the Stanley Parable advise you not to let others choose for you. In essence, they advise you not to let another person design your world which is something a game developer understands better than anyone.
The way it bumbles around to do the simplest things is kind of cute and hilarious. I couldn't help but think that it was also in horrible pain, especially the tiny little legs supporting the whole blob at the bottom, so that cut down on the cuteness a lot.
the employees crack me up so much. they're not really scared, they mostly look really fucking thrilled about the blob... except when it's almost killing them. otherwise, they consciously help it, like they point at buttons and stuff (36:40, yellow hard hat guy). fuckin' adorable. what the heck. such a nice game.
There's some theories that the boy could have had mind control powers from the very beginning, but could only control little thingies like those chicks - hence why they followed him around.
cry, if you disable all of those glowing orb thins, you'll get an alternate ending! looked it up on Wikipedia (obviously the most reliable source for all things ever)
I did not expect the kid to be absorbed, but I did not expect Cry to be so casual about it either. Like, dude, I was so disturbed I was getting down with the sickness. However, I love how Cry seemed to be having so much fun with the mass of human- especially when he crashed the cafeteria/break room (?) asking what's for lunch. Man, that was pure perfection right there. Also, swinging on the vehicle, that right there made me laugh. Thank you. All in all, I really enjoyed this playthrough. I'm sure all of us are going to have fun trying to figure out the story. The ending was kinda weird, a little messed up, but i still enjoyed you playing. Again, thank you. Stay awesome, Cry, everyone reading. Have an amazing day (PS: Cry, I heard you singing Wonderwall, you sneaky bastard)
Thank you Cry, you inspired me to start making my own videos not long ago. You're a true pillar of the community and I hope one day i can entertain and inspire people as much as you do.
I love the way both Cry and Jack couldn't figure out why they could barely hear anything in that reversed gravity water room, you're watching the boy from an observation room behind reinforced glass, that's why you can see computers and desks and the "04" on the glass in the bottom right corner XD The reason for that kind of view isn't too clear, but I guess it was to explain why the people in the background aren't paying any attention to what's going on, their backs are turned and they can't hear what you're doing at all because of the reinforced glass windows blocking the sound...
A lot of danish creative projects have some underlying tone or "bigger meaning", often displayed in a sort of "black and white" visually with a very blunt surface (like all the times and the ways we see that kid get killed). This is a very good example of that. And the meaning I sort of took from this, is a child on its journey into growing up, seeking answers to who they are themselves and moving forwards without any certain destination. People around him seem like "mindless zombies", all experiencing life in the same ways and doing as they are told, because that is just the life they were meant to live. As he reaches further into adulthood and tries to explore what this means and why this is, he finds what he considers to be an amalgamation of it all; people becomming an interconnected mass with no will of its own, with the only true individuals being the ones with power. He makes an effort to guide this mass, try and help them break their bonds, take revenge and 'escape' this status and situation. That's what I tookm away from it, just at the top of my head. Not saying it makes sense or is accurate, but hey, I felt like sharing.
When the blob stretches it looks like a big dough thingy with arms and legs. I'm very uncomfortable but also excited by this, which I think any reasonable would and/or should be.
Just a random thought, I love that cry adds the fan art at the end of his videos, its just pleasant to watch the different art styles and perspectives of the game and how they find a way to incorporate cry into some of them... I like it.
It's weird how I enjoy the shuffling sound the blob makes, of dry flesh brushing dusty concrete. And maybe the dry "plop-slap" it makes when it flops on the ground. It reminds me of marshmallows, the feeling of rubbing big marshmallows together. And he's right, it would be cool to feel what the flesh texture is and kinda squish it to see if it's all fatty tissue or muscley-fatty-bones. I also believe the blob was alive, that it was just basking in the sun and that was it's goal all along. To be free and feel sunlight again. It kept moving, after all.
I enjoyed this game a lot, and I enjoyed how calm your playthrough was even despite how horrific this game could be. I really enjoy games where you sort of have to 'fill in the blanks' more or less, but I feel that this was almost... Too vague. I don't know, am I the only one? Love ya, Cry. Hope you have a good week.
The whole interaction with the box and the humans at 37:34 where the guy in the helmet nods and gestures as if to say, "go on buddy, go out", makes me really lean towards the theory that everything is still part of an experiment. The blob is not truly free, they are just watching if it is smart enough to go "outside". Of course, the mere fact that "outside" has a replica - the exhibit where the blob first fell - just adds to the evidence.
Holy crap! That was one of the more amazing things I've seen in a video game. Story-wise it was spectacular but I had to marvel at the animation at work, too. The whole game had great animation but everything involving the blob was even more exceptional. Everything was so dynamic and fluid. These guys should tech courses on 3D animation.
When Cry either talks to himself or sings to himself it's the cutest and funniest thing in the world. It's the most entertaining thing about his videos tbh.
So, we became the persona, Legion, and escaped the lab we broke into just to die. At least the journey along the way and the theme of morals versus progress was great. Thanks for playing this, Cry!
I highly regret eating breakfast at the beginning of the this episode ;_; and I thought I was pretty desensitized to this kind of stuff. Thank you Cry for your pure enjoyment and silly jokes, it helped me die down my nausea just a bit >
Around 40:50 "all this time i've refused to say.. *LOUD CRASH*" What was he refusing to say? I listened to it like 10 times and can't seem to make it out lol
Guys, did you notice when the big thing fell down at 27:39 and landed in some sort of experimenting room - the room is a setup of a forest and an ocean exactly like how the ending looks like! Even a spotlight is placed to be focusing at the big thing. It's like... like it was planned out by the people running the "world". I'm mind blown
I haven't finished the video yet but a thought just occurred to me. Does Cry have a Patreon? I know he's not all about people giving him money but that might be a good idea.
gavin byrne Damn. I mean he posts videos and does streams and some content creators use patreon and in return just use their videos as a reason for people to donate to their patreon but I can see why he might not like that. But it's his decision. :3
I'm back to civilisation (aka wifi) which means back to falling asleep to Cry's voice. It's just so reassuring... even when he's talking about weird stuff like that game... (which was cool btw) I can fall asleep normally when I'm disconnected but I have such a hard time letting go when I'm online that this is really helping me. Thanks!
You turning into a blob was the best! You were certainly enjoying destroying everything in your path, I know I was! x'D I hope you didn't die at the end, gonna go find a video that explains this game and its ending! :'c Glad I watched you play this! An actual series of yours that I watched from start to finish, it's been a very long time since I've done that. :D
Cry singing is honestly the best thing in my life , the existence of cry just... Man you don't understand how much this person brings so much happiness in my life, I just love cry. ^v'
Tanzanite I might watch someone do it if there's a good play through of it, but I honestly got stuck on so many puzzles I just did not understand lol, took me months to get surprise killed. Any suggestions where to watch it?
am i the only one that loves the shot where you're breaking out of the tank and the camera moves through the wall. everytime i watch that scene im in awe of how awesome this game is
You could't hear in that one water puzzle because the perspective was from a testing station behind glass windows; probably really thick and noise cancelling to withstand pressure.
Except this one did have storytelling. The worms, the shockwave, the mermaid thing, the humanoids, the weird water gravity, the abandoned labs, the diorama. The fact that all of these things opened up a great premise makes the ending so much more disappointing...
Cry, join Pewd's charity stream please. He asked people to tell you that. And I love to see you play together, no matter if you guys have problems under the curtains or not. No judging. I was actually one of those who shipped you two a lot. #PewdieCryStillAThing
Oh my gosh xD "I hope you lose custody of your child" - Cryaotic Like damn Cry. Chill. I had no idea you would say that after they taken the mindless people away from you. I'm just here saying wow to myself after hearing that.
I know the game is old now but I reaaaally want Cry to play Alice's Madness Returns-- there's not ONE good playthrough of it and it sucks. Just bad amateur commentary. I know Pewdiepie has played it, and I have seen it, but he never finished...
Man that was a crap ending! You did all that as the bad ass little kid hoping to get a good ending and find his family or whatever the purpose of this game was. And then he gets absorbed into this huge, ugly, ridiculous blob of human experiment and then fucking dies on the beach! It was incredibly sad and anti-climatic. I wish I knew the backstory behind this game but damn
I have a theory that the blob was the one controlling the boy just so the blob could "escape". Hence why he only goes in one direction. In the alternate ending you disconnect yourself from the blob.
R Jackson You know those things cry kept finding and breaking? You need to destroy all of those. Just look up "Inside alternate ending" it's a bit much to explain.
How about the alternate ending? After disabling all the hidden light orbs, the alternate ending will be unlocked. When it's unlocked, play again. At the cornfield there will be a door with light going to the underground bunker.

The meatball is actually kind of cute in the way it grabs stuff.
Yes omg ikr? Finally someone that thinks the same as I do 😂
I knew I wasn't the only one!
+Hawkeen it's really adorable when it stumbles 😭
The meatball is just great ball :D
It looks kind of like NoFace when he went all crazy. :3
Am I the only one who really hoped that Edmund would crawl out and be free at the end?
Same. I guess it's all left up to the player to guess whether Edmund Wells died, lived or "lived" as a part of the blob.
+Angry Skeletor is that actually his name? / I like to think he lived, even with all the shit that the thing went through.
Nah I'm pretty sure Cry just made it up, I think he mentions it in episode 1-2, if you wanna go check it out. Also, since we see that the blob cannot move, when it took no time to recover after terrible falls before, we can arrive at two conclusions:
1 - The fall killed the kid, which was controlling the blob, and now, without it's control it can't move, and can only squirm around, it's arms move just because it's their instinct to move.
2 - The fall and movement caused the kid to fall unconscious. So he's still alive and he'll wake up but still be inside the blob, but now the blob is "unconscious" too, for now.
I really don't see a situation where the kid escapes. I think the only way for him to escape is with the human's help, and they certainly don't want to help.
+Angry Skeletor The blob is also much smaller now, and is missing most of its limbs. The last fall was obviously the worst of all and did quite a number to it. It can also be assumed that it simply cannot move anymore due to lack of limbs.
Taylor M. Collette
Oh right. That I did not notice, I thought the blob looked smaller because the grass it was in was really tall. However if the kid was alive/awake, he could at least cause the blob to struggle impotently.
*disgusting ginormous blob of body parts and adipose tissue holds a stick*
Cry: That's cute.
Linkin well duh it’s freaking adorable it’s like a fatty potato I love it
Tbh, I thought it was cute too...
Am I okay?
It literally formed a crappy version of Voltron, holy shit LOL
AND I FORM THE HEAD!!
Dude, i laughed so much when he said that at the very ending. That was great. Weird game though, especially how the water physics were at some point. That was just trippy, man. Good game though. Weird ending though. Was humorous though! I feel like I'm satisfied by the overall game!
+dylan musij though
+dylan musij yeah, I like the light and mood :) not a bad game
+SmokedHa Agreed. Hopefully more games come out like this. I just hope that the ending becomes less freaky as hell
Dont worry cry hes not dead. The hive mind is satisfied so it took your control away from the blob. pretty meta huh? :p
cool
That's just a theory. Wether you choose to believe it is your choice.
I don't think the hive is free, if you look through the window somewhere, you'll see a big light shining at the place where the hive rested
Except for the fact that they didn't actually escape.
yeah it is never free - everything was planned for it to end up on the beach. the intire game is about control and the illusion of being in control/free.
Okay, I think I understand. I just have one question.
What?
He's inside.
...
THAT'S THE JOKE.
SPOILERS EXPLANATION OF THE END
The Blob was controlling some innocent people to free its self. You can see many dead bodies of the people that didnt made on your way to it. A poor boy was mind controlled an made all the way and got absorbed into the Blob (he was probably mentally dead already like the other slaves). At the end the Blob was outside and free.
Edit: Ok so people pointed out that at the model there was miniature of the Blob (instead of just being a model of the base outside), so its implied that the slavers knew this would happen and were just guiding it to a bigger cage. So in the end the chain of control is : boy
But this is, of course, just a theory
+Edwin Mendez a gaME THEORY- -imsosorry-
A GAME THEORY
But then why wouldn't it send like thousands of people all at once to free it?
+Jess Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Maybe it was weakened and could only control one person at a time?
Hey cry there's another ending with all of those achievements, if you get all of them you go back to one of the first ones and open a door and break the final one. When you do, the kid scrunches up like the husks do when they have nothing controlling them, giving the hint that the kid was a husk, and that's why he was able to be absorbed into the Swedish meatball
Swedish meatball
The guy at 29:25 is actually able to be saved. If you're a good person, you can slowly approach him, and he takes the hint and dives to the left. I really like this, because I didn't want to hurt a single person as the hive.

Does it make any difference?
some deep conversation here
I personally think that the kid wasn't completely a puppet thing until after that section in the water where that rope thingy gets him when the mermaid person drags him under water, because after that he's able to survive w/out breathing and I'm pretty sure his posture was more slouched like the other puppet things were.

And because of that, the kid is allowed to be controlled because they wont show resistance. And that's when they changed motives and decided to set the mob free. But idk.
i just realised that game could be called "run boy, run"
That was literally the only song I've been thinking of since the very beginning. Ha!
Shoutout to Woodkid.
What about the last segment?
Thomas Dierkes
that's a good question
+Tiny Yamato "flop human meatball, flop"
Did you notice that the exhibit cry's blob fell into was a structure kind of the place wear the blob lands in the end? That means that the blob was planned to get there by humans
that doesn't necessarily mean anything. It could just be some foreshadowing the developers decided to put in there.
Who knows, but's it seems pretty obvious if you ask. Its probably why the humans were helping the blob
Yep, it's exactly the same, even has that lit spot you're supposed to fall into. One of the theories is that no matter how much you tried to escape the experiment, no matter how much you looked for a way out, you are still INSIDE.
I don't think it was planned entirely. After all the blob killed the CEO. I think they planned for the blob to escape but they couldn't foresee how it would happen.
You sure that was the CEO?
It could've just been Joe Average.
The Little Blob That Could.
The blob was the hivemind controlling the little boy to come and free itself. That's why the little boy was so determined to walk all the way to the blob without stopping or even thinking about it.
Then the blob makes it outside, it is no lomger "inside" like the tidal says. It has finally reached it's goal, it is finally free, and so the game ends.
The pun on the title of the game made me facepalm so hard I can smell the ceiling
lol
What pun?
+Gilmore Mizzi (Sorez) the kid is INSIDE the blob
That's not a play on words though (Pun). It's just stating a factual observation. A play on words is like "I wasn't planning on a brain transplant, but then I changed my mind." It's a sentence that works in more ways than one.
Cmon guys, you got what I meant dont be such boomers -.-" I know its not an actual pun.
27:44 anyone realize the diagram everyone is looking at is the ending? the hill? the patch of sunlight? the blob falling down it?
Old playthrough, but I think the game's message to the player is the illusion of control. However, the story inside the game seems to me like the world is in a wartime. All the technology could be construed for war uses. The shockwaves earlier could be a huge wartime weapon and the parasites infecting the animals from the beginning could be a developing form of biological warfare. I think the "zombies," for lack of a better term, at the country's own civilians, somehow turned into mindless husks by the government and tested for their physical ability (the line). The merpeople, maybe a way to attack by sea? I dunno, something about the colors reminds me of a wartime I guess.
"Part of me is crawlin away n-"
cRAAAWWWLING IIIIIN MY SKIIIIIN
you win!!!! XDD
bruhh!😁
you need a trophy.
THESE WOUUUUNDS, THEY WIL NOT HEEEEAL
FEEAAAAARRRR IS HOOOOOWWWW I FAAAAAALLLLLL....
That thing looks like something you might see in Spirited Away, lmao.
i thought the same!
bruh
Yessssss
Literally what I was thinking the whole time blobby the skin potato was moving lol
Cry, it would probably feel like a Thanksgiving turkey before you cook it-cool and kinda squishy, but you can feel bones if you press hard enough.
Gross.
Epic
Things are so much better with the skin off. You can hear the bones better that way.
I think it'd feel like dough with random bones merged inside. Squishy yet bony.
I thought warm mounds of soft flesh with bones in weird places
24:49
"The Clusterrrrrrr!! If you could on-ly knoooww, what we really are, What We Really Are, WHAT WE REALLY ARE!!"
Oh my god that's what I was thinking! XD
Whats dat?
Jasmine Villagomez watch Steven Universe
SU all the way
so this is what -homeworld- society thinks of fusion
I guess the guy was destined to be the one who controls the meatball. That's why he could go in 1 direction, that's why the naked guys help you etc. They know you're their leader, maybe?

Also: the place where 'it' ends, looks like the 'it' was meant to be there. It looks so artificial, like a place in the ZOO that's made for observing animals etc.
Also: the artificial place is exactly the place created in the exhibit. So it must be destined to be :P
its an exact replica of the diorama u fall into earlier
The people killed him when they caught him, though
those were tranq bullets not metal killy bullets tho, so the people didn't want to kill you
Really? I thought the meatball was controlling the kid.
"These things have souls, probably" Yes. Animals have souls too an they are used for experiments on a daily basis all over the world. Such cruelty :(
It's a necessary evil of life, in terms of medical testing anyway.
Medical reasons I can somewhat understand, but something as shallow as beauty? never.
Stealthy Mery
Hence why I said for medical purposes. It's more commonplace these days for beauty/hygiene products to not test on animals though, so at least things are improving on that end.

The way it bumbles around to do the simplest things is kind of cute and hilarious. I couldn't help but think that it was also in horrible pain, especially the tiny little legs supporting the whole blob at the bottom, so that cut down on the cuteness a lot.
+Mocha well..its a blob so it must not be that heavy...right? I mean it is a skin blob but maybe the legs are really strong?
it *is* cute
it is kind of adorable in a way
Was the ending like an 'inside' joke or something? Cause I don't get it.... ;)
:333 I like you
he was outside...now he's INSIDE .. BAM BAAM BAAAMMM
Damn.
the employees crack me up so much. they're not really scared, they mostly look really fucking thrilled about the blob... except when it's almost killing them. otherwise, they consciously help it, like they point at buttons and stuff (36:40, yellow hard hat guy). fuckin' adorable. what the heck. such a nice game.
The blob reminds me of noface from spirited away.
I was thinking the same thing
+chikin luvver Same
Lol, someone had the exact same comment at the end of the two best friends playthrough of this.
Bodhi Yas!
it was actually really sweet seeing the construction workers trying to help you
Holy shit, 0 dislikes. The world is the way it needs to be.
YOU JINXED IT
1 now :(
You did it. You Fucked it up. You did the one thing you should never do in the comments. You reminded people that they are assholes.
YOU DANG JINXED IT YOU DANG GOOF
Good. :-)
Why am I only realizing now that the zombie people are acting exactly like the chicks at the beginning of the game?
There's some theories that the boy could have had mind control powers from the very beginning, but could only control little thingies like those chicks - hence why they followed him around.
Same with the fish.
cry, if you disable all of those glowing orb thins, you'll get an alternate ending! looked it up on Wikipedia (obviously the most reliable source for all things ever)
love the fanart at the end, cry's always had the most artistic fans :) you guys rock!
I did not expect the kid to be absorbed, but I did not expect Cry to be so casual about it either. Like, dude, I was so disturbed I was getting down with the sickness. However, I love how Cry seemed to be having so much fun with the mass of human- especially when he crashed the cafeteria/break room (?) asking what's for lunch. Man, that was pure perfection right there. Also, swinging on the vehicle, that right there made me laugh. Thank you.
All in all, I really enjoyed this playthrough. I'm sure all of us are going to have fun trying to figure out the story. The ending was kinda weird, a little messed up, but i still enjoyed you playing. Again, thank you.
Stay awesome, Cry, everyone reading. Have an amazing day
(PS: Cry, I heard you singing Wonderwall, you sneaky bastard)
The way that cluster thing moves is so weirdly pretty i love it
3:57 His little 'I backstabbed you bud' with the box moment HAHAHA
I love Cry's, "Hello :D!" at 27:34
I don't know why, it just made me chuckle
Thank you Cry, you inspired me to start making my own videos not long ago. You're a true pillar of the community and I hope one day i can entertain and inspire people as much as you do.
: )
I love the way both Cry and Jack couldn't figure out why they could barely hear anything in that reversed gravity water room, you're watching the boy from an observation room behind reinforced glass, that's why you can see computers and desks and the "04" on the glass in the bottom right corner XD
The reason for that kind of view isn't too clear, but I guess it was to explain why the people in the background aren't paying any attention to what's going on, their backs are turned and they can't hear what you're doing at all because of the reinforced glass windows blocking the sound...
15:58 i lost my shit
lol same 😂
yASS someone mentioned it ;u;
same😂😂💀
Same 😂
A lot of danish creative projects have some underlying tone or "bigger meaning", often displayed in a sort of "black and white" visually with a very blunt surface (like all the times and the ways we see that kid get killed). This is a very good example of that. And the meaning I sort of took from this, is a child on its journey into growing up, seeking answers to who they are themselves and moving forwards without any certain destination. People around him seem like "mindless zombies", all experiencing life in the same ways and doing as they are told, because that is just the life they were meant to live. As he reaches further into adulthood and tries to explore what this means and why this is, he finds what he considers to be an amalgamation of it all; people becomming an interconnected mass with no will of its own, with the only true individuals being the ones with power. He makes an effort to guide this mass, try and help them break their bonds, take revenge and 'escape' this status and situation.
That's what I tookm away from it, just at the top of my head. Not saying it makes sense or is accurate, but hey, I felt like sharing.
I see the lead game designers raging vore fetish made it into the game somehow
No
oh my goDhfb
Also the necrophilia.
ahahaha yeah, I imagine so too XD
+Gabu - San I wonder what causes yours and the OP's bias against this game...
32:37 "God, I got a headaches" well played Cry...well played
When the blob stretches it looks like a big dough thingy with arms and legs. I'm very uncomfortable but also excited by this, which I think any reasonable would and/or should be.
*person
what
Protip: Don't eat whilst watching this episode
I made my mistaaaaaaakes
The first half is fine, ate two sandwiches watching it.
+Raven Corvus How could this happen to meee!!!
I ate ice cream during the whole thing and was fine.
I had some soup
"I hope you lose custody of your child." love you cry
And I'm sure that was the only other child in the game.
Just a random thought, I love that cry adds the fan art at the end of his videos, its just pleasant to watch the different art styles and perspectives of the game and how they find a way to incorporate cry into some of them... I like it.
*spoilers*
I don't think the blob is dead... I think the blob is *done*
It's happy in its little spot of sunlight, finally 'outside' (or is it...?)
It's weird how I enjoy the shuffling sound the blob makes, of dry flesh brushing dusty concrete. And maybe the dry "plop-slap" it makes when it flops on the ground. It reminds me of marshmallows, the feeling of rubbing big marshmallows together. And he's right, it would be cool to feel what the flesh texture is and kinda squish it to see if it's all fatty tissue or muscley-fatty-bones. I also believe the blob was alive, that it was just basking in the sun and that was it's goal all along. To be free and feel sunlight again. It kept moving, after all.
"i hope you loose custody of your child." Cry 2016
I enjoyed this game a lot, and I enjoyed how calm your playthrough was even despite how horrific this game could be. I really enjoy games where you sort of have to 'fill in the blanks' more or less, but I feel that this was almost... Too vague. I don't know, am I the only one? Love ya, Cry. Hope you have a good week.
cry would be a great mom
The whole interaction with the box and the humans at 37:34 where the guy in the helmet nods and gestures as if to say, "go on buddy, go out", makes me really lean towards the theory that everything is still part of an experiment. The blob is not truly free, they are just watching if it is smart enough to go "outside". Of course, the mere fact that "outside" has a replica - the exhibit where the blob first fell - just adds to the evidence.
Well, that skin potato made me chuckle a lot
WHY IS CRY SO CUTE?! the way he treats everything like a friend is adorable!!
First thoughts: *So this is what homeworld thinks of fusion.*
Second thoughts: What the actual heck.
Two things I really like, Cry's reactions to the end, and all the cool fan art people drew! Makes me wish I could draw.
you really sticked together, you and your friends there.
Holy crap! That was one of the more amazing things I've seen in a video game. Story-wise it was spectacular but I had to marvel at the animation at work, too. The whole game had great animation but everything involving the blob was even more exceptional. Everything was so dynamic and fluid. These guys should tech courses on 3D animation.
Well, I wasn't expecting the End of Evangelion today...
Every other TH-camr I've watched when they finally get outside: yay I'm outside!
Cry: omg I'm a bolder
Freaking out that my fanart got in! qwq
When Cry either talks to himself or sings to himself it's the cutest and funniest thing in the world. It's the most entertaining thing about his videos tbh.
15:56 - 16:07 ..
1:50 Not gonna lie. I kinda wanted the box to kill him. XD
same
lol I expected that to happen
Yeah when he did it I was like "the box is gonna squish you...." M surprised it didn't.
+Princess Lancelot I'm *** gotta love shitty typing.
19:05
Oh don't worry cry
You'll see them again when you've grown.
So.... what's this game about again?
Mind control :)
This is one of the best game plays I have seen you do! It was amazing!
I'm the same big guy. I just want my time in the sun while I still can.
Imagining the blob muttering to itself in crys voice throughout its entire rampage was the best thing
CRY THIS ISNT HOW YOU FORM VOLTRON
So, we became the persona, Legion, and escaped the lab we broke into just to die. At least the journey along the way and the theme of morals versus progress was great. Thanks for playing this, Cry!
Love the "Wonderwall" cover.
I highly regret eating breakfast at the beginning of the this episode ;_; and I thought I was pretty desensitized to this kind of stuff.
Thank you Cry for your pure enjoyment and silly jokes, it helped me die down my nausea just a bit >
Around 40:50 "all this time i've refused to say.. *LOUD CRASH*"
What was he refusing to say? I listened to it like 10 times and can't seem to make it out lol
+Frosty I thought he said Ball sack
lol i can see that, thanks
Pulsing?
Guys, did you notice when the big thing fell down at 27:39 and landed in some sort of experimenting room - the room is a setup of a forest and an ocean exactly like how the ending looks like! Even a spotlight is placed to be focusing at the big thing. It's like... like it was planned out by the people running the "world". I'm mind blown
I haven't finished the video yet but a thought just occurred to me.
Does Cry have a Patreon? I know he's not all about people giving him money but that might be a good idea.
He does not, cause yeah, not his kinda thing, would only do that, if peeps got stuff in return he said
gavin byrne
Damn. I mean he posts videos and does streams and some content creators use patreon and in return just use their videos as a reason for people to donate to their patreon but I can see why he might not like that.
But it's his decision. :3
Yeah, but he said before, that he doesn't like just getting money from peeps and feels they should be get stuff if they give him money at least
i guess you could sub to him on twitch, or buy his merch and that generates a similar aspect of support
Cry your commentary is so great. Thanks for being so chill man.
that grabby meat thing reminds me of Lisa
i thought i was the only one that thought of lisa
hanamura...more like idiot.
Maybe needs a bit more gross oily hair but holy shit you're right!
Joy Mutant vibes...
o gee
I'm back to civilisation (aka wifi) which means back to falling asleep to Cry's voice. It's just so reassuring... even when he's talking about weird stuff like that game... (which was cool btw)
I can fall asleep normally when I'm disconnected but I have such a hard time letting go when I'm online that this is really helping me. Thanks!
Sooo... their like this world's homunculi?
You turning into a blob was the best! You were certainly enjoying destroying everything in your path, I know I was! x'D
I hope you didn't die at the end, gonna go find a video that explains this game and its ending! :'c
Glad I watched you play this! An actual series of yours that I watched from start to finish, it's been a very long time since I've done that. :D
15:46 im fucking dead 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Cry singing is honestly the best thing in my life , the existence of cry just... Man you don't understand how much this person brings so much happiness in my life, I just love cry. ^v'
Aye yo cry.. You should play 9 Persons 9 Hours 9 Doors
999 was so fucking good, i hope cry plays it one day
+Tanzanite fr
I actually tried playing that game, and got a real shitty ending....I spent so much time on it too that I don't even wanna try it again lol.
+Damien Casual You should it up again! The endings are part of the experience and add to everything. In the end (as in the true end) its all worth it.
Tanzanite I might watch someone do it if there's a good play through of it, but I honestly got stuck on so many puzzles I just did not understand lol, took me months to get surprise killed. Any suggestions where to watch it?
15:56 That was the greatest part of this whole series. Bravo.
Oh GOD. The compression is fucking disgusting even on 1080p.
am i the only one that loves the shot where you're breaking out of the tank and the camera moves through the wall. everytime i watch that scene im in awe of how awesome this game is
Seriously? That kid was supposed to survive 😢❤️
You could't hear in that one water puzzle because the perspective was from a testing station behind glass windows; probably really thick and noise cancelling to withstand pressure.
Games without actual storytelling will always be too cryptic for me. I just never understand even the tiniest bit of story.
Except this one did have storytelling. The worms, the shockwave, the mermaid thing, the humanoids, the weird water gravity, the abandoned labs, the diorama. The fact that all of these things opened up a great premise makes the ending so much more disappointing...
looks like you could call it
CRYptic
Hugs for including "Sands Of Time" XX
cry should play hyper light drifter
ALAS, THE WAIT FOR INSIDE HAS COME TO AN END
loved this series cry, keep up the good work 👍
Lmao that enya song
Great playthrough cry and thanks for being awesome with those quick uploads x
Cry, join Pewd's charity stream please. He asked people to tell you that. And I love to see you play together, no matter if you guys have problems under the curtains or not. No judging. I was actually one of those who shipped you two a lot. #PewdieCryStillAThing
Oh my gosh xD
"I hope you lose custody of your child" - Cryaotic
Like damn Cry. Chill. I had no idea you would say that after they taken the mindless people away from you. I'm just here saying wow to myself after hearing that.
I know the game is old now but I reaaaally want Cry to play Alice's Madness Returns-- there's not ONE good playthrough of it and it sucks. Just bad amateur commentary. I know Pewdiepie has played it, and I have seen it, but he never finished...
That was quite a neat game. Loved the ambient tracks, really helped set the mood.
Man that was a crap ending! You did all that as the bad ass little kid hoping to get a good ending and find his family or whatever the purpose of this game was. And then he gets absorbed into this huge, ugly, ridiculous blob of human experiment and then fucking dies on the beach! It was incredibly sad and anti-climatic. I wish I knew the backstory behind this game but damn
I have a theory that the blob was the one controlling the boy just so the blob could "escape". Hence why he only goes in one direction. In the alternate ending you disconnect yourself from the blob.
How do you get the alternate ending??
R Jackson You know those things cry kept finding and breaking? You need to destroy all of those. Just look up "Inside alternate ending" it's a bit much to explain.
oh ok yeah I remember those. I wonder how many there were. But I hope he knows about it and goes back to try and get it
How about the alternate ending? After disabling all the hidden light orbs, the alternate ending will be unlocked. When it's unlocked, play again. At the cornfield there will be a door with light going to the underground bunker.
