Touching on what Cry said at the very end: I agree, you know the scariest things in this world are people and what they're capable of. You know people have the ability to make your life heaven on earth, but the same is true when it comes to the complete opposite. It's easy to forget that if you haven't ever experience the incredible evil that exists people first hand. I like the way the game blended supernatural horror and the horror that can be someone's personal reality, it made the game unique, and I was able to take a little something away with me after I finished watching this playthrough series. Thanks for the uploads, Cry.
Yeah. I myself have a hard time believing how evil people can be, myself included. I'm what you call a Pussy.I'll never be alright. People scare me too much.
well shit, i mean i don't know you, but bad shit happens to everyone, and just because whatever you went through effected you very badly doesn't mean that you're going to stop growing, time heals everything, whatever's up will get better given time, at least in my own experiences
Mmmm.. Still not liking this game. The ending was okay, but. The ending of a game can't make up for an entire game and its flaws. The whole map was way too convoluted and you can see how easy it was to get lost, Anubis really didn't have a point and there was no solid story through the whole thing. You could jump in at anytime, which isn't a very good sign in video games in my own opinion. I dunno. The whole game felt like it was trying too hard.
The game's story felt solid enough for me, but it's conveyance is a little flawed. The gameplay is also not great either. the backtracking and exploration is rather tedious and can break immersion from the story. Not sure if this is the developer's first game, but it's not bad. Definitely room for improvement though.
Not actually sure myself. I always believed personal issues caught up to him and led to his death. Not saying the story's perfect, but I found the ending to be somewhat powerful. Again, it's conveyance isn't the best.
Hmmmm... this is one of those situations. I'm glad for the trigger warning and all, some people really need that and I'm happy to see Cry thinks of his viewers, but that warning was a spoiler. At least, felt like one. Oh well, I can handle a little bit of spoilers. It's not the end of the world or anything ^^
Thanks, bud. I really love that Cry's been using trigger warnings. I think (could be wrong) he even went back and retroactively added them as annotations on his older videos. Its great~
Yea Cry is one of the good guys out here :D. Even though i can't relate to the triggers because i am not affected by those i am glad that he is willing to help people like you. Have a beautiful day gentleman :).
I thought the ending was rather powerful and speaks volumes about real-world issues like depression, loneliness, and broken families. Again, the gameplay isn't great, but the story was solid enough for the experience. Thank you for sharing this with us, Cry I'll see you in the next story. Take care. Bye.
As I was strolling through the comments after the video, I realized how nice everyone on Cry's channel is. It's a change of scenery, a pleasant one at that. It really makes me smile to see everyone so friendly on TH-cam, especially all in one place. If anyone's channel were to have such warming people, I'm glad it's yours, Cry.
I really enjoyed this game. More so because, like you said, it dealt with serious issues than simply mediocre horror jumpscares and spooks. The thing is, anyone can be affected by illness - whether mental or physical, diseases aren't bias, they don't discriminate, and that's something I find genuinely terrifying. There were a lot of instances that touched home pretty hard with me. In any case, it's been a while since you played an RPG Maker game, and this one had a well thought-out style that I admire very much, so I'm glad you gave it a whirl - thanks, bud, for the cool videos. Top form and all that.
The only solution i can imagine is that she had some kind of sickness that also affected her mentally. so maybe she might have gotten insane. That one time Claire talks to her about the fact that she doesn't eat enough she onlyreplies with a groan. so maybe she was a little insane and drowned the boy while having some hallucinations or stuff. dunno. I also missed the part where the father apparently died. When and why did that happen?
He said he was having a hard time dealing with his demon (dealing with his shit). When he was getting around to fixing it he died. So it implies that he dies but doesn't say how. He was an alcoholic, so maybe alcohol overdose or an accident.
Vulpine I think Dad found out about Mom drowning Ethan as soon as it happened, and helped clean up the situation before he drank until he died of alcohol poisoning. Then Claire lived ignorant of the whole thing, taking care of her mentally ill mother for years, which basically ruined her life. Mom eventually died in the bathtub (maybe she killed herself, maybe she just accidentally drowned), and after that Claire finally learned the truth about Dad and Ethan. The shock of hearing that and the shame of taking care of the woman who killed her brother and father only to have her die too drove her to try and kill herself. That's just what I got, anyway.

Thanks Cry for being you, for not changing anything because of some people who complain about habits' change or not doing a thing prefectly. Nobody is perfect and few people still don't understand that, that pissed me off so much...But hey, you're awesome man, just the way you are so...yeah, thanks, just thanks. Oh, and Claire was a good game ! :D
Thank you Cry for the series , this might sound stupid but I every time I watch you play and hear what you have to say make me rethink about life , realizing and appreciating new things I never even notice before , so Thank you , for everything
Thank you for playing this, I had a very nice time! I started watching this because none of my go-to youtubers have played this game yet and I was curious and I rarely go out of my "comfort zone" but I am very glad I did, I enjoyed it a ton! Every time you said "dots" it made me smile.
This game felt like it was missing something. Despite the horrible empty rooms that had the point of fillers and bad orientation, even the story felt incomplete and unsatisfying (which, basing on the type of the game, shouldn't happen). It didn't touch me, at all.
i agree.. i think they focused too much on the "atmosphere" and less on the plot. Yes, we did have some interactions here and there but it's still difficult to understand even if you played it 'till the end.
Thanks for playing this, Cry. I absolutely loved your playthrough and I always enjoy what you have to say at the ends of games like these, really. This game was pretty deep, and I found myself crying at the end of it... wow.
Claire and LIMBO are the best abstract games Cry has played that I love analyzing, whether it be the game's original meaning or its way of being open to interpretation. Both have great narratives that could go in different directions and I like more than one way to solve a puzzle. It's a real treat! As for Claire, I can say from what I've seen, she as well as those close to her have had their tribulations and ways of coping with them and I liked this ending for it. Cry summed it up very well, applying it to a life outside of the game. Thank you for the games!
So I looked it up, and you missed two people. The true ending is pretty decent for this one, but yeah, the gameplay's not great. I think you just need to find all the people and save them. One of them was right before the end that you missed. Anyway, good luck with your next game, Cry! If you want to know what changes in the A ending I'll leave a spoiler below. SPOILER!!! All the people you saved from that place tell you to wake up, and you wake up in a hospital bed. Ani was by your side the whole time, watching over you. I'm not good at explaining things so I'll leave it at that, you get the gist of it.
I looked around a little on youtube and there is an even better ending. Spoiler below. Spoiling it now You wake up with Ani by your side just like in the ending you described but someone also sent you flowers. Turns out it is a male coma patient about Claire's age who just recently woke up.
I've saved watching your Claire play through for when I'm really down, so I'm actually gonna start them now. Looking forward to getting cheered up again by you. Thank you so much!
Not sure if whether I wanna cry or scream.... Kinda confused by the ending but the trigger (for me) wasn't as bad as I was expecting. I didn't really like the whole storyline but I kept watching because I could relate in my own way from personal details I won't ever retell. But I what Cry said at the ending that was true and really hit home about broken families and what people SHOULD be scared of. Not ghosts, not monsters under your bed or in your closet, but your own personal demons and situations such as a broken or abusive family that's becoming more and more normal everyday. That's what's scary. And this story touches on that slightly. If it was anyone but cry playing this I would've hated it but what he said at the ending made it worth it. Not sure why but it gave me a sense of peace for the feels the last few minutes brought. This is why I love Cry.
This game is a bit heavier on symbolism than what most are probably used to and heavier in tone than what most are used to playing. I'm not gonna lie, I haven't seen a game this heavy in tone since I played The Darkness. Like, it was dark for similar reasons and yet, not so much y'know? But that whole "real life demons and dealing with your shit" kinda deal? I just...I dunno - I think it takes a lot to be able to play this kinda stuff. The trigger was most appreciated as well. Thanks again, Cry, for taking us on another journey. I'm looking forward to the next one you take us on.
"hmmm" exactly. so there's alternate endings as well? well i think this ending was actually perfect for it. it matched the story well and it's just something to think about for situations that do happen in the real world, with people that have mental illnesses, alcoholics, suicides, and family issues. thanks so much for playing this and having the sanity to finish lol. the gameplay was confusing with directions, but the story was interesting really enjoyed hearing your reactions lol. looking forward to the next gameplay ^^
Though that was rather depressing, just wanted to say you are my absolute favorite gamer on youtube. Your sense of humor and your taste in music is fantastic and. Just. Thank you so much for doing what you do, 'cause I think you're pretty much awesome. Okay. Bye. (:
Thanks for sharing this game, Cry. I hadn't heard of it and wasn't even aware it existed. At first I was a bit confused about the end, but when I stopped a moment and thought about it, I figured it out. Also, I extremely appreciate the trigger warning, even if I am not affected by it in any way. I just really commend you for thinking of others who may be sensitive to it. Thank you. Can't wait to watch your next project. =)
For some reason it always tugs at my heart strings to hear Cry say "take care" at the end of the play through, I always wait until the very end for those last lines. It's like a mini chapter of a viewers life with Cry is over. Until the next time.
I was honestly expecting more from this game. The ending was so sudden IMO. Even though it maybe wasn't the most captivating game I still enjoyed watching you play it. I'm looking forward to the next thing you got going! From what I read on twitter it sure seems like it's something good. Ganbatte ne Cry-kun :3
i get the feeling that most people don't realize this game is supposed to make you feel lost and confused, because that's how mental illness and trauma is. it's confusing, it's scary, shit is sudden, yknow. i really like this game for not trying to be convenient and instead focusing on the actual message. regardless, thank you for playing it!
Cry, you literally just missed 1 person. It was the hanging woman, if you jumped up to her like you would normally reaching for items, then you would've gotten her and achieve the good ending.
I agree with those who have been posting about the trigger warnings, it is wonderful to have. A lot of others I notice don't put warnings and it comes as a shock to me sometimes and stirs my own demons... even this gave me problems but the warnings prepared me for it. You really are a great guy, Cry, thanks for that man.
Well, that was certainly interesting to watch. The map looked confusing as hell to me, so in my opinion you seemed to navigate it pretty well c: . At any rate, thanks for playing this and letting us watch it ~
I've got to admit Cry, I genuinely love the fact that you put warnings for things like triggers at the beginning of videos that contain them. Not many people are considerate enough to do so.
Thanks for another great playthrough Cry. Can't wait until the next series goes up and the suspense is over, If I'm thinking along the right tracks it should be right up my alley.
Thanks for playing til the end! I was quite curious (yet the end is not really surprising) and from what I see it's SO frustrating to play this game. I wouldn't have gone that far on my own. :P
This game, wow, I actually cried, its so sad but beautiful at the same time , thanks cry for playing it, even if you'll never see this comment, but wow, I can't believe it ended like that :(
I only just now realise how important it is for me to hear Cry say "take care" at the end of the playthrough. I don't know why but I just wait for it as he's wrapping up.
I was used to the upload at 4pm in my country and Claire comes at 1pm, so i always come late :c A shame it ended but it was really cool to watch you play it. Thanks, Cry, for your hard work. See you in the next game, patatoe.
Yeah, im glad to see this ending even if is a sad one, is kind of interesting, but i still prefere ken ending, anyway, good game and good gameplay, i can suggest you, Forest of Drizziling Rain, is a rpg maker game and is really good i think, sorry for any english mistakes and hope you see my suggestion. Peace.
Cryaotic Hey Cry, are you really posting Forest of Drizzling Rain tomorrow? I love your RPG maker walkthroughs because you read all the stroy for me so I don't have to. I could watch these all day...
Oooh cool you uploaded it when I got home!! :D First time I'm in the 301+ views xD Oh man...I knew something bad would happen because of the warning. And I know you wrote it for reasons that you know...could make some people feel something and I think it's okay, even if it spoils the story a bit. Nonetheless, it just...damn ;-; The ending is beautiful, but in a sad way. Goddamn... but thank you for the video!
For some reason, this game touched me quite deeply. I havent experienced anything like Claire but now, and as for a lot of games played by Cry, I just lay on my bed tortured by the feels. Sweet torture tho.
I love Cry and I am proud to be part of his fanbase. He's genuine and funny and, unlike alot of youtubers, given up on playing good games in favor of bad games for more views. I also love my fellow fans. Every video i look forward to scrolling through the comments and seeing all of the support and kindness that comes from his fans. I love Cry, and am so, so glad that i can be a part of this community ^^
You know that was a lantern not a backpack right? :3 and that Bro guy spoke pretty similarly to how you speak, mabe that's how you knew he would say he was just tying to fit in xD But anyway, it was a short-yet-fun trip to experience through all the moments it had. Although the gameplay could've been better the story was up there. Glad to have spent this time with you Cry and can't wait for the next series. See you there :]
The game was really amazing , really everything , the story and the art .. , but this story is really sad .. Life is hard , and everybody know it . We need to always find the best solution to keep on , if something happened . we need to put our heads up and do our best for everything , we only live once, and we should take advantage of every minute, every hour, every day when it's possible . But thanks to you cry , for all this , you are the best ! :) can't wait to see what will be the next game !
Don't beat yourself up about getting lost in the game. To be honest I think that was the entire point of having it laid out like that. Claire was lost, so by getting lost in the game put you in a position where you and the character shared the same feelings. If you think about it that way, this game is really cleaver.
Cry, I love that you put trigger warnings. It's so damn thoughtful.
10 ปีที่แล้ว
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to enjoy a great story :) It was quite dark, but very deep and interesting imo. Even if the gameplay part as you said wasn't that enjoyable.
Real life horror seems to make us yearn for the supernatural things lurking in the shadows. The more the world gives us acid feelings of fear; the more we want a good scare to act like a valve to release the steam of panic or sorrow building in us. Thanks much for the play through, I look forward to the next.
That end felt...off. but after looking up the "good end" I guess it was appropriate for that ranking. I really enjoyed that, though it was sad it was still kind of a "feel good" ending despite it not being what you'd hope would happen. Your commentary adding to it big time, felt more real. Thanks for playing Claire man.
I really appreciate the fact that you put trigger warnings on some of your videos. I personally am not triggered by these kinds of things, but I know a lot of people are, and it means a lot that you care about your fans enough to give them fair warning about something that might be very upsetting.
That was a great game play, I cries towards the end though. Can't wait to watch more! So much motivation to put in to watch all your videos but totally worth it :)
Leopard The Great Still Spoiler I do know that , but in the ending cry got,she is kinda on a spiritual place where she is with her dad and anubis, isnt it ?
destroyal3222 You're right... but- *spoiler* It doesn't make a lot of sense since the dog's still alive. Why is it dead in that ending? I guess it's showing all of that after Ani joins them, some years later, but still. It's kind of a weird jump in time.
Leopard The Great -spoiler- actually i thought Ani might be her old dog who's already dead - which is why she sometimes has him with her and sometimes not. When she loses hope, she parts with him and only finds him again in the afterlife - but then again, maybe the best ending proves otherwise.
It really bothered me at 1:07 because paper clips aren't strong enough metal to pick locks, and the paperclip would just break off inside the lock and make it so there would be no way to unlock it without changing the lock completely.
I think that, in the game, you could have saved more people/'souls' seeing that the map was big, but I felt a little disappointed seeing that a lot of it was cut off and it seemed like it would have taken a lot of getting lost and dying just to see some more of the map. So that could have changed the ending quite a bit, and probably shed more light to what this ending was about, although I did enjoy this, I think that the game itself could have been better :) But all around great play through Cry! :D
As (almost) always, a (kindish) pleasure to see you play. A differente way to show horror. We see now the new horror games and they lack the human part in it. Its just gore and blood and blood, and gore, and chainsaws, and big bloody deformed dudes, and gore and blood... But nothing about a broken home, that (I dare to say this) a lot of us have lived. (We wouldnt have enjoy this lets play the same way if we didnt have those experiences, to be honest). So, take care Cry. See you... Well, hear you around on the week ^^
This game wasn't too much about the monsters, but about Claire and her past. The past she could never escape from. I'm surprised Ani didn't play a bigger part in this game. I know how Cry loves his dog/wolf characters. Then again, that ending...
I watched the good ending and..... *SPOILER!* Anubis isn't dead!! In the good ending she wakes up in the hospital and it ends up Anubis had been sleeping by her side the entire time. (well, that explains why the only thing he was able to do was growl and lick her hand) Just thought I'd share that since for me it made the entire game a little happier.
I think this series was one that is hard to understand especially coming from people who don't have any of the problems presented in this game. But it was damn good anyways. Excited for what's to come! :D
I don't mean anything bad by this, but over time I have noticed that Cry's videos seem to appeal to depressed inviduals. Sure, there are mentally stable people, or at least those who say they are, but really... There's no one with no worries in this life and Cry's videos seem to help cheer up many people dealing with difficult times. My psychologist says that I'm "severely depressed" (hah, what a quack she is), but there are people in far worse state than I am, and for being someone to bring some sort of happiness and comfort to their life, I thank you, Cry. P.S. Pick a less confusing game next time, ok? xD
Not sure if I would enjoy playing it. I mean, the story was really interesting. But man, I would be lost as shit... Even worse than you, Cry. But I guess, if you leave the ridiculous monsters and the labyrinths aside, I really enjoyed watching Claire! Can't wait for a new video! :)
i slowly die every time he calls the lantern a backpack
rip in piece
Haha, I didn't even notice until I saw your comment 😄
I'll give it to him though because in a weird why it looks like a hiking backpack.
Kai Crowley Rest in peace in piece? Wha? Z:(
(P.S. Bein' a grammar nazi but idc)
YodragonStudios i think it should be, "pieces", instead of "piece."
Touching on what Cry said at the very end: I agree, you know the scariest things in this world are people and what they're capable of.

Constructive criticism. That's how its done! Good on you Casey cyanide.
***** if the story was solid why did her father die
Not actually sure myself. I always believed personal issues caught up to him and led to his death. Not saying the story's perfect, but I found the ending to be somewhat powerful. Again, it's conveyance isn't the best.
Hmmmm... this is one of those situations. I'm glad for the trigger warning and all, some people really need that and I'm happy to see Cry thinks of his viewers, but that warning was a spoiler. At least, felt like one.
Oh well, I can handle a little bit of spoilers. It's not the end of the world or anything ^^
Where was this trigger warning? I never saw one in this video.
The bottom right corner of the video, at the very beginning.
Masononi oh alright thank you
+CappuccinoGuil
I think it would've been better to put those trigger warnings into the description.
Thanks for the trigger warning, man. I really appreciate it.
I'm not up for that stuff right now, so ill stash this away for a better day.
Hope you get better mate :)
Thanks, bud.
I really love that Cry's been using trigger warnings. I think (could be wrong) he even went back and retroactively added them as annotations on his older videos. Its great~
Yea Cry is one of the good guys out here :D. Even though i can't relate to the triggers because i am not affected by those i am glad that he is willing to help people like you. Have a beautiful day gentleman :).
Hell yeah he is.
You too, man. You too. :D
This is the side of the internet that I greatly appreciate. I have those issues too and appreciate the warnings. Hope you get better!
I thought the ending was rather powerful and speaks volumes about real-world issues like depression, loneliness, and broken families. Again, the gameplay isn't great, but the story was solid enough for the experience. Thank you for sharing this with us, Cry
I'll see you in the next story. Take care.

Still don't understand why Claire's mom drowned Ethan.
The only solution i can imagine is that she had some kind of sickness that also affected her mentally. so maybe she might have gotten insane. That one time Claire talks to her about the fact that she doesn't eat enough she onlyreplies with a groan. so maybe she was a little insane and drowned the boy while having some hallucinations or stuff. dunno.
I also missed the part where the father apparently died. When and why did that happen?
Vulpine Well, he apparently had a drinking problem so it may have had something to do with it.
He said he was having a hard time dealing with his demon (dealing with his shit). When he was getting around to fixing it he died. So it implies that he dies but doesn't say how. He was an alcoholic, so maybe alcohol overdose or an accident.
Vulpine I think Dad found out about Mom drowning Ethan as soon as it happened, and helped clean up the situation before he drank until he died of alcohol poisoning. Then Claire lived ignorant of the whole thing, taking care of her mentally ill mother for years, which basically ruined her life. Mom eventually died in the bathtub (maybe she killed herself, maybe she just accidentally drowned), and after that Claire finally learned the truth about Dad and Ethan. The shock of hearing that and the shame of taking care of the woman who killed her brother and father only to have her die too drove her to try and kill herself.
That's just what I got, anyway.

And it's finished. Thanks for doing this :)
Wonder what's next... Anything on your mind Cry?
ItsTheWolf My spelling? What did I do wrong?
Chaotic Niki It might be the dong he is talking about.
ItsTheWolf Oh wow. Shit! didn't see that XD
Dong dong
VVhite5hadoVV Certainly not!
Thanks Cry for being you, for not changing anything because of some people who complain about habits' change or not doing a thing prefectly. Nobody is perfect and few people still don't understand that, that pissed me off so much...But hey, you're awesome man, just the way you are so...yeah, thanks, just thanks. Oh, and Claire was a good game ! :D
Thank you Cry for the series , this might sound stupid but I every time I watch you play and hear what you have to say make me rethink about life , realizing and appreciating new things I never even notice before , so Thank you , for everything

So I looked it up, and you missed two people. The true ending is pretty decent for this one, but yeah, the gameplay's not great. I think you just need to find all the people and save them.

SPOILER!!!
All the people you saved from that place tell you to wake up, and you wake up in a hospital bed. Ani was by your side the whole time, watching over you. I'm not good at explaining things so I'll leave it at that, you get the gist of it.

You wake up with Ani by your side just like in the ending you described but someone also sent you flowers. Turns out it is a male coma patient about Claire's age who just recently woke up.

But I what Cry said at the ending that was true and really hit home about broken families and what people SHOULD be scared of. Not ghosts, not monsters under your bed or in your closet, but your own personal demons and situations such as a broken or abusive family that's becoming more and more normal everyday. That's what's scary. And this story touches on that slightly. If it was anyone but cry playing this I would've hated it but what he said at the ending made it worth it. Not sure why but it gave me a sense of peace for the feels the last few minutes brought. This is why I love Cry.
This game is a bit heavier on symbolism than what most are probably used to and heavier in tone than what most are used to playing. I'm not gonna lie, I haven't seen a game this heavy in tone since I played The Darkness. Like, it was dark for similar reasons and yet, not so much y'know? But that whole "real life demons and dealing with your shit" kinda deal? I just...I dunno - I think it takes a lot to be able to play this kinda stuff. The trigger was most appreciated as well. Thanks again, Cry, for taking us on another journey. I'm looking forward to the next one you take us on.
I love Cry's respect for his viewers so much, he's a wonderful TH-camr.
"hmmm" exactly. so there's alternate endings as well? well i think this ending was actually perfect for it. it matched the story well and it's just something to think about for situations that do happen in the real world, with people that have mental illnesses, alcoholics, suicides, and family issues.
thanks so much for playing this and having the sanity to finish lol. the gameplay was confusing with directions, but the story was interesting really enjoyed hearing your reactions lol. looking forward to the next gameplay ^^
Thanks for seeing this one through despite the frustrations. Really enjoyed watching you play this. Again, thanks Cry.
Thanks for sticking with it, Cry. The ending you got was worth it. This last episode was really beautiful.
Though that was rather depressing, just wanted to say you are my absolute favorite gamer on youtube. Your sense of humor and your taste in music is fantastic and. Just. Thank you so much for doing what you do, 'cause I think you're pretty much awesome. Okay. Bye. (:
Thanks for playing Claire Cry, and your right not every ending to everyone's story is happy
I've watched several LPs of this game. Good sir, you certainly provide the most gravitas than any other ones I've watched. Keep at it. Great LP.
Dude...the feels hit me like a wrecking ball and built me up with a wall of confusion. Great let's play, good job Cry
Thanks for sharing this game, Cry. I hadn't heard of it and wasn't even aware it existed. At first I was a bit confused about the end, but when I stopped a moment and thought about it, I figured it out.
Also, I extremely appreciate the trigger warning, even if I am not affected by it in any way. I just really commend you for thinking of others who may be sensitive to it. Thank you.
Can't wait to watch your next project. =)
I have mad respect for you. You're probably one of the only youtubers who take the time to add trigger warnings. Thank you. That is all.
For some reason it always tugs at my heart strings to hear Cry say "take care" at the end of the play through, I always wait until the very end for those last lines. It's like a mini chapter of a viewers life with Cry is over. Until the next time.
I was honestly expecting more from this game. The ending was so sudden IMO. Even though it maybe wasn't the most captivating game I still enjoyed watching you play it. I'm looking forward to the next thing you got going! From what I read on twitter it sure seems like it's something good. Ganbatte ne Cry-kun :3
i get the feeling that most people don't realize this game is supposed to make you feel lost and confused, because that's how mental illness and trauma is. it's confusing, it's scary, shit is sudden, yknow. i really like this game for not trying to be convenient and instead focusing on the actual message.
regardless, thank you for playing it!
Cry, you literally just missed 1 person. It was the hanging woman, if you jumped up to her like you would normally reaching for items, then you would've gotten her and achieve the good ending.
No he missed the librarian, too.
I felt empty after it ended..with so many unanswered questions roaming my head.Oh well! Thanks for playing Cry!
I agree with those who have been posting about the trigger warnings, it is wonderful to have. A lot of others I notice don't put warnings and it comes as a shock to me sometimes and stirs my own demons... even this gave me problems but the warnings prepared me for it. You really are a great guy, Cry, thanks for that man.
Well, that was certainly interesting to watch. The map looked confusing as hell to me, so in my opinion you seemed to navigate it pretty well c: . At any rate, thanks for playing this and letting us watch it ~
Thanks for the ride Cry. I know it wasn't your favorite game, but I enjoyed your viewpoint of it. Once again, thank you.
I've got to admit Cry, I genuinely love the fact that you put warnings for things like triggers at the beginning of videos that contain them. Not many people are considerate enough to do so.
Thanks for another great playthrough Cry.
Can't wait until the next series goes up and the suspense is over, If I'm thinking along the right tracks it should be right up my alley.
Thanks for playing til the end! I was quite curious (yet the end is not really surprising) and from what I see it's SO frustrating to play this game. I wouldn't have gone that far on my own. :P
Cry, that's really thoughtful, putting a trigger warning, man. You're the best. qvq
3:16 lmao That Mr. Riddle's laugh. I'm dying
No, Cry. We have to thank YOU for letting us enjoy this piece together. I hope we can go for another ride to where no one has gone before.
I love watching cry's play throughs just for the sole fact of hearing him on the finale say "have a good one guys"
Shana Tova Cry.
I wish you success and happiness for the new year!
Love you all guys! I hope we all will have another wonderful year together!
This game, wow, I actually cried, its so sad but beautiful at the same time , thanks cry for playing it, even if you'll never see this comment, but wow, I can't believe it ended like that :(
I only just now realise how important it is for me to hear Cry say "take care" at the end of the playthrough. I don't know why but I just wait for it as he's wrapping up.
Acually, I enjoyed the game. The atmosphere was cool and not every ending is happy. Keep up the great vids cry! Your awesome man!
I was used to the upload at 4pm in my country and Claire comes at 1pm, so i always come late :c
A shame it ended but it was really cool to watch you play it.
Thanks, Cry, for your hard work.
See you in the next game, patatoe.
Yeah, im glad to see this ending even if is a sad one, is kind of interesting, but i still prefere ken ending, anyway, good game and good gameplay, i can suggest you, Forest of Drizziling Rain, is a rpg maker game and is really good i think, sorry for any english mistakes and hope you see my suggestion. Peace.
Well won't you be surprised tomorrow. ;D
Cryaotic Hey Cry, are you really posting Forest of Drizzling Rain tomorrow?
I love your RPG maker walkthroughs because you read all the stroy for me so I don't have to. I could watch these all day...
Really? Yeahhhhh XD
That game is lovely! A bit disturbing, but lovely! I love the creative character design.
Cryaotic 🙀 Yay!!! ❤️
Oooh cool you uploaded it when I got home!! :D First time I'm in the 301+ views xD
Oh man...I knew something bad would happen because of the warning. And I know you wrote it for reasons that you know...could make some people feel something and I think it's okay, even if it spoils the story a bit. Nonetheless, it just...damn ;-; The ending is beautiful, but in a sad way.
Goddamn... but thank you for the video!
For some reason, this game touched me quite deeply. I havent experienced anything like Claire but now, and as for a lot of games played by Cry, I just lay on my bed tortured by the feels. Sweet torture tho.
Can someone do me a solid and explain all the endings for me?
I love Cry and I am proud to be part of his fanbase. He's genuine and funny and, unlike alot of youtubers, given up on playing good games in favor of bad games for more views. I also love my fellow fans. Every video i look forward to scrolling through the comments and seeing all of the support and kindness that comes from his fans. I love Cry, and am so, so glad that i can be a part of this community ^^
props to Cry for adding the trigger warning. those are way more important than most people think
You know that was a lantern not a backpack right? :3 and that Bro guy spoke pretty similarly to how you speak, mabe that's how you knew he would say he was just tying to fit in xD But anyway, it was a short-yet-fun trip to experience through all the moments it had. Although the gameplay could've been better the story was up there. Glad to have spent this time with you Cry and can't wait for the next series. See you there :]
Thanks for the trigger warning Cry,some of us really appreciate it :)
The game was really amazing , really everything , the story and the art .. , but this story is really sad .. Life is hard , and everybody know it . We need to always find the best solution to keep on , if something happened . we need to put our heads up and do our best for everything , we only live once, and we should take advantage of every minute, every hour, every day when it's possible .
But thanks to you cry , for all this , you are the best ! :)
can't wait to see what will be the next game !
Every walkthrough is a great walkthrough with Cry
I'm kinda said it's finished, I really liked the series.
I hope you will do more stuff like this :)
Don't beat yourself up about getting lost in the game. To be honest I think that was the entire point of having it laid out like that. Claire was lost, so by getting lost in the game put you in a position where you and the character shared the same feelings. If you think about it that way, this game is really cleaver.
So many people are Claire. Thank you for playing this, Cry.
I would not be able to play this game just because of the gameplay. Jesus. I don't know how you do it. Props.
yeah but sometimes people choose to be scared by spooky shit so that they'll at least temporarily forget the real shit in their lives.
Of course I'll be joining you on your next adventure Cry!!! Woudlnt miss it for the world!
Well, glad that wasn't a long series like Okami. This game didn't really get to me, but hell, Cry is Cry, and you are awesome.
Thank you so much for the warning, Cry. It means a lot to a lot of people (myself included).
Cry, I love that you put trigger warnings. It's so damn thoughtful.
Thank you for giving us the opportunity to enjoy a great story :)
It was quite dark, but very deep and interesting imo.
Even if the gameplay part as you said wasn't that enjoyable.
Real life horror seems to make us yearn for the supernatural things lurking in the shadows. The more the world gives us acid feelings of fear; the more we want a good scare to act like a valve to release the steam of panic or sorrow building in us. Thanks much for the play through, I look forward to the next.
11:50 All I can think about is Jack Sparrow, "I got a jar of dirt!" lol
That end felt...off. but after looking up the "good end" I guess it was appropriate for that ranking. I really enjoyed that, though it was sad it was still kind of a "feel good" ending despite it not being what you'd hope would happen.
Your commentary adding to it big time, felt more real. Thanks for playing Claire man.
I really appreciate the fact that you put trigger warnings on some of your videos. I personally am not triggered by these kinds of things, but I know a lot of people are, and it means a lot that you care about your fans enough to give them fair warning about something that might be very upsetting.
That was a great game play, I cries towards the end though. Can't wait to watch more! So much motivation to put in to watch all your videos but totally worth it :)
*----Spoiler Alert----*
Soo , in the end she decided she wanna stayed with her dad , anubis within that place?
Spoiler below
Anubis is with her on the hospital bed if you save the survivors to get the A ending.
Leopard The Great Still Spoiler
I do know that , but in the ending cry got,she is kinda on a spiritual place where she is with her dad and anubis, isnt it ?
destroyal3222 You're right... but- *spoiler*
It doesn't make a lot of sense since the dog's still alive. Why is it dead in that ending? I guess it's showing all of that after Ani joins them, some years later, but still. It's kind of a weird jump in time.
Leopard The Great -spoiler-
actually i thought Ani might be her old dog who's already dead - which is why she sometimes has him with her and sometimes not. When she loses hope, she parts with him and only finds him again in the afterlife - but then again, maybe the best ending proves otherwise.
Filip Piękny S-P-O-I-L-E-R
The problem is that in the better endings Ani isn't dead. So there's some inconsistency, or a weird time skip involved.
It really bothered me at 1:07 because paper clips aren't strong enough metal to pick locks, and the paperclip would just break off inside the lock and make it so there would be no way to unlock it without changing the lock completely.
11:43 Reactions to finding a Heart in a Jar.
I wonder how Cry feels about Link's inventory
I think that, in the game, you could have saved more people/'souls' seeing that the map was big, but I felt a little disappointed seeing that a lot of it was cut off and it seemed like it would have taken a lot of getting lost and dying just to see some more of the map. So that could have changed the ending quite a bit, and probably shed more light to what this ending was about, although I did enjoy this, I think that the game itself could have been better :) But all around great play through Cry! :D
5:46 yup... Best song ever, so catchy~
As (almost) always, a (kindish) pleasure to see you play.
A differente way to show horror. We see now the new horror games and they lack the human part in it. Its just gore and blood and blood, and gore, and chainsaws, and big bloody deformed dudes, and gore and blood... But nothing about a broken home, that (I dare to say this) a lot of us have lived. (We wouldnt have enjoy this lets play the same way if we didnt have those experiences, to be honest).
So, take care Cry. See you... Well, hear you around on the week ^^
"Things are going good so far, I'm dying and anxious, but its going good"
Cry- 2014
This game wasn't too much about the monsters, but about Claire and her past. The past she could never escape from. I'm surprised Ani didn't play a bigger part in this game. I know how Cry loves his dog/wolf characters. Then again, that ending...
I watched the good ending and.....
*SPOILER!*
Anubis isn't dead!! In the good ending she wakes up in the hospital and it ends up Anubis had been sleeping by her side the entire time. (well, that explains why the only thing he was able to do was growl and lick her hand)
Just thought I'd share that since for me it made the entire game a little happier.
I'm really glad that Cry put in thr trigger warning. Some people tend to not think of those kinds of things, and its really great that he did.
Please, PLEASEEE play Off!
And sequel!!
I LOVED it! Thanks for playin' Cry. Reminded me of "The Lone Survivor", but in better, maybe 'cause the story was easier to understand.
Thank you, Cry. I enjoyed this very much. And you are right about it touching on some pretty dark things. Can't wait until the next.
I just can't believe I actually finished at like 1:14 in the morning. I really enjoyed watching this game.
I really enjoyed this Cry! Thank you for doing this series :3
"He was a little more on" cry i haven't heard you laugh like that before...awesome!
I think this series was one that is hard to understand especially coming from people who don't have any of the problems presented in this game. But it was damn good anyways.
Excited for what's to come! :D
I don't mean anything bad by this, but over time I have noticed that Cry's videos seem to appeal to depressed inviduals. Sure, there are mentally stable people, or at least those who say they are, but really... There's no one with no worries in this life and Cry's videos seem to help cheer up many people dealing with difficult times. My psychologist says that I'm "severely depressed" (hah, what a quack she is), but there are people in far worse state than I am, and for being someone to bring some sort of happiness and comfort to their life, I thank you, Cry.
P.S. Pick a less confusing game next time, ok? xD
Even if that's not one of my favourite games, you did a good job ! ( I'm also curious about the next game. I hope it's something extremely happy :D )
Indeed a dark one that this game did touch on. Very tragic.
Thank you for playing Cry.
Not sure if I would enjoy playing it. I mean, the story was really interesting. But man, I would be lost as shit... Even worse than you, Cry.
But I guess, if you leave the ridiculous monsters and the labyrinths aside, I really enjoyed watching Claire!
Can't wait for a new video! :)
I was hoping by the end that itd all make sense
it didnt
I can't wait to see what're you're playing next >:D
