    From Wikipedia:
    Journey is a video game developed by Thatgamecompany exclusively for the PlayStation 3 and which is distributed on the PlayStation Network. The game features the player as a robed figure in a vast desert, journeying towards a mountain in the distance. Along the way the player can meet other players on the same journey; the two players can assist each other, but cannot communicate via speech or text and are not shown each others' names until after completion. The game was released on March 7, 2012 for PlayStation Plus subscribers, and was fully released on March 13. It has been met with significant critical acclaim. Journey is the last game made under a three game contract between Thatgamecompany and Sony, the first two being Flow and Flower.

    To be honest, I really thought I was playing with some AI.
    However, I never knew any AI who would do the things my friend did.
    Waited for me, took a lot of hits, and guided me when things got rough.
    I avoided this game thinking it was an indie puzzle bland game.
    I was soooooooo wrong.
    It's that one kind of game that gives you that one feeling, that one thing no other game can give...
    I don't know what that feeling is called, but I felt a lot of it since the very beginning, until the end.
    Thank you for playing with me... random person.

      Yeah, I completed it the first time bumping into barely anyone. But the second time, a white robe guided me and helped me up when I randomly fell (my video game ability is appalling!) etc and showed me all the secret achievements and stuff and awww it was actually one of the sweetest things- it was such a different experience. And when I became a white robe, I went and did the same for someone else and :)

    I played this game the day it was released, it just looked so dreamy and i stayed up way too late to finish it. I was crying to myself when it ended and audibly gasped when i realized the companions I'd had along the way were real people who were also up way too late sharing an incredibly story with me. I just sat and cried at the sheer beauty of it all. Thank you to every single person I have ever crossed paths with in this game, I love you all even if you will never read these words

    One case that has amazed me most in recent years has been Journey, a title that in its less than three hours, does get you, surprise you and even put tears in your eyes. In Journey, there is no dialogue, no names or battles, there is only one destiny, a mysterious journey and an incredible soundtrack, and that makes it just perfect.

    I played this game and I cried overwhelmed by emotion. I let my best friend play it through while I observed mostly silently, and he also cried. My wife had tears streaming down her face just listening to me describe the game and the silent companionship of the online component. There is something truly masterful, unique and genius about this game. It's a deeply visceral experience.

My partner in this aventure always are by my side and clear the game together. My emotions rise in tears, the bonds between us were strong. I made a new friend in real life.

    I open my eyes and I come to
    an endless sea of daylight sand.
    No direction, no destination.
    But off I walk forward and forward.
    In the distance, a mountain stands.
    Bright and calm, strong and grand.
    It calls to me.
    and so I walk forward and forward.
    Marking glyphs, mending scarves,
    I marched through heat, ruins and shade.
    In unknown lands with unknown creatures,
    A solitary journey that I will brave.
    Even so in distant view,
    Another calls. A silent song.
    One more like me has travelled through.
    Our journey has begun.
    We marched through heat, ruins and shade.
    Safe from deadly, roaming gaze.
    Marking glyphs, mending scarves,
    Gliding still, in our voyage.
    And in the cold we withstand,
    By the warmth we closely shared.
    With you beside me hand in hand,
    We'll soar past the piercing air.
    We'll continue flying, forward and forward,
    While the light draws welcoming and closer.
    Atop the sea of endless clouds,
    The peak is waiting, the peak is brighter.
    As we walk our final together,
    this is the treasure I held.
    We travelled far from the start
    But we are close to this end.
    We cross the light. It is done.
    There is peace, there is longing.
    I open my eyes and I come to,
    Another life, another chance with you.

    Journey isn't a game, it's a work of art. You didn't shoot terrorists or slay demons or frag other players online. Instead, you helped another person.
    Maybe he didn't need help and left you. Maybe you needed his help, and followed in his footsteps. Or maybe you both needed help, and stayed together just for companionship.
    Whatever the reason, you and your companion walked the same paths, conquered the same obstacles, and shared the same Journey. And neither of you will forget that experience.

    Hands-down, the only game I have ever played in my life to have given me the pleasure of an emotional roller-coaster akin to the ups and downs of life itself. I experienced happiness, fear, anxiety, sadness, despair, and an unparalleled sense of wonder while playing this game, and, I am very, very far from being ashamed to admit that I openly wept for half an hour upon finishing the game, for sheer joy and elation alone. This is not only a game, this, is a masterpiece; a work of visual and musical art combined into something that I doubt will ever be 'one-upped'.
    This game, and the music, connects on a deep level with its players, and the creative minds should be extraordinarily proud of that feat. I play this game once a week, since I have purchased it, almost religiously.

  • @FracturedHope01

    Going in to this game I knew there was a possibility of another player being in my game. What I didn’t expect was a companion who stuck by my side the entire time. They showed me every secret and were very patient as I tried to figure my way around the levels. They chirped when I chirped and always stuck by me to refill my scarf. When I knew the end was near I was so shocked when I started tearing up. The crescendo of the music as my new friend and I soar through the clouds. I didn’t want it to end. But I am happy that it happened. I will never forget my companion and I will never forget my Journey.

      they like "game-y" things and a lot of sony's endorsed indie games are not that "gamey" at all.
      Which is why I like them. Fuck leaderboards and rules and challenge and fast pace and all that other shit that doesn't belong in something I'm doing to have fun. :V
      Take solace in those people being a vocal minority on sony platforms. They'll never stop getting plenty of "gamey" things they enjoy and the occasional game that doesn't put a whole lot of emphasis on pressuring the player to complete objectives isn't going to hurt them.

    I just now searched up the lyrics to this song. It had never occurred to me that the song actually transitions between several languages, particularly citing some of the most ancient works that we know of. Truly elevates this song to sound like all of humanity's forefathers saying goodbye, farewell, we've gone our own way. Definitely crying now.
    Here's a copy I found of those lyrics and translations along with where they were generally sourced:
    Stat Sua cuique dies
    (To each his day is given)
    Stat Sua cuique dies
    (To each his day is given)
    - Latin, The Aeneid
    Maél is mé tó féran
    (‘Tis time that I fare from you)
    - Old English, Beowulf
    Aleto men moi nostos
    (Lost is my homecoming)
    Aleto men moi nostos
    (Lost is my homecoming)
    - Greek, The Illiad
    C’est pour cela que je suis née
    (I was born for this)
    - French, Joan of Arc
    Kono michi ya (On this road)
    Yuki hito nishi ni (Goes no one)
    Kono michi ya (On this road)
    Aki no kure (Autumn sunset)
    - Japanese, Matsuo Basho
    C’est pour cela que je suis née
    (I was born for this)
    Ne me plaignez pas
    (Do not pity me)
    C’est pour cela que je suis née
    (I was born for this)
    - French, Joan of Arc

    I started playing the game and I met them. They helped me get through the game. They must’ve finished the game, I thought. They helped me get through the ghostly sands. Though I lost connection. The time we spent together was very special. Very memorable. I remember them waiting for me when i was a bit slow. I remember flying with them in the dessert. Then our quick friendship came to an end. Though losing connection was devastating, I made my way slowly almost to the end. The snowy mountain.
    Still I wonder if they’re doing okay. Thank you for helping me.

      It's just like real life. There is someone there to help you up, there to push you towards your goal. But then when they leave unexpectedly, you feel alone, vulnerable. Then, you can feel their force, just like they never left, knowing they will push you towards the right path.

    The soundtrack compliments this game so damn well. The game itself is really heart warming, and adding this music makes it impossible not to finishing it without shedding some tears. This song specifically; after "passing to the other side" to reach the top of the mountain, it's just... gosh... can't really describe it with words. I remember playing with company the whole game, even dying together (according to my sister's theory of what happens) after reaching the summit... That person even drew a heart on the sand right at the very end before crossing to the light... I will never forget it.

Austin Wintory is just as incredible as a composer creating such amazing music that perfectly falls in place with Journey and unlocks incredible emotion in our hearts. Jenova Chen, Austin Wintory, and all of thatgamecompany...THANK YOU. We need more people in this world like you guys.

  • @angelfox4919
    @angelfox4919 7 ปีที่แล้ว +17

    What I love most about this song is how it relates to the Hero's Journey theme in Journey. The first song in the OST is named Nascence, meaning birth, and the 17th one is Apotheosis, meaning either rising to godlike status after being reborn, or is the climax of a certain event. It literally comes full circle as the game does and it basically tells us: "You were born for this" which I think personally is the reason behind this song. The lyrics and instrumental are bittersweet, like a death that is peaceful and accepted and then is uplifting when saying the last 2 lines of the song: "Do not Pity me, I was born for this."

    J'ai joué à ce jeu il y a 2 semaines sans trop y croire, je ne m'attendais pas du tout à le finir et je l'ai fait d'une traite. C'est vrai que la durée de vie n'est pas longue mais l'atmosphère l'histoire qui est décrite était particulièrement prenante, et des semaines après y avoir joué j'y pense encore.... La bande originale est tout simplement superbe, elle colle très bien au jeu. Plus de jeux comme ça franchement une vraie découverte cela aurait été dommage de ne pas y jouer...👏🏻👌🏻 Merci aux créateurs.

    Sometimes she went front of me to prevent danger, or to redirect me to an hide bonus.
    She was so happy to see me still here and congratulates me when I have found something that was hide.

    For I was born to be lucky, and that was so true.
    Through the path that I have been,
    Of horrors I glimpse and wonder I've seen.
    To further the goal in torrential bliss,
    Of burdens unshackle, for I was born for this.

Everything I felt when I played through the game for the first time came back and hit me in the chest, like it was the very first time.

      @@Katsinum Right but the thought is not that death is a part of life, but the sole purpose of life would be to end in death. If everything about life were only relevant because it ended in death, it would be depressing. Stories aren´t badly written just because they end, but they will be when the ending is the only thing that matters and the rest could have been skipped over. As someone who believes in the God of Christian religion I can´t honestly say I believe humans were born solely to die but I think you´re responding to a statement that was never made.
