FAR: Changing Tides (FULL GAME) 

So I think I figured it out, the connection in what had happened. So basically: The tectonic plates shifted much more than they should have and one ended up going almost completely over the other, so the one from Lone Sails would be the one on top as the water started to leave it going to the lower tectonic plate, which then made it into a barren wasteland as there was no more water, but all the water that used to be there went into Changing Tide's tectonic plate, flooding it and washing most things away. This made both societies develop different ways of coping with the CT one making everything from trains and towns into boats, and LS changing anything from boats and scrap metal into walking/driving machinery

"This is far too peaceful." No Sean, this is FAR: Changing Tides.

AAAAHHHH THE LADY SHE HAD A PHOTO OF LONE! For those who don't know Lone was the playable character from the LS. Lone Hendrickson was the Daughter of Ian Hendrickson which if you don't know was the man who invented the okomotive, the main unit in LS (or what Jack called Thomas). In the beginning of LS Lone is looking at her father's grave before she begins her journey. now in this game CT The woman who was found in the boat was holding a photo of Lone. My guess she is the mother of Lone and when the world "split" in two Lone went with her father while the lady stayed on the side of the world with ocean. Now I believe that when her father died Lone was on a journey to meet with her mother (The Lady from the painting). Now I don't know abt this part but there might be a chance the woman is also the mother of the playable character in this game and that Lone and the CT character may be siblings? I don't know abt the whole siblings part but I guess that's what a theory is really!

Sean: "This storm is way worse than the last game's." Last game's storm: *Literally a tornado*

Jack: "This ship is so much better than our last one!" Me: "You did not just disrespect Thomas like that."

Honestly Far: Distant Clouds would be an amazing third installment for this game. Instead of a plane, your little character has to take car of a giant airship.

"I just stood here all night looking at the lights? Why would I do that?" When I played I imagined that just for that moment, the world looked like the people were back.

3:21:00, I love how Sean says “I’m talking to a buoy..” and then immediately gets an achievement that says “oh buoy” 😭

"Anyone who sat through the entire thing in one sitting..." I legit didn't even realize I'd been watching this for 4 hours. So relaxing, beautiful, and fun to listen to Jack.

Jack: "I'm going to take this plant as far as I can!" *Plant falls into water less than 10 seconds later.* Jack: "and its gone." *plant sinking begging for Jack to come back and save it* Jack: "And moving on!"

I was literally thinking at the end that a co-op third game would be so fun! Or having to switch between the two characters depending on which "ship" you need to use to traverse the terrain.

It’s kinda interesting that Jack didn’t notice how the flag on the pole determined how much wind the ship was catching. If it was catching enough wind it would be at the top in the blue and the second sail would come down.

Sean: "Guys! I don't understand the sail! Figure it out for me!" Guys: * understood the sail * Episode: * one and only, so guys can't help Sean * Guys: * nervously point at the screen hoping Sean will figure it out himself soon *

"This is your captain speaking, shut up" I would LOVE to hear an airline pilot drop that line when we hit some serious unexpected turbulence.

I feel like these developers could make an amazing train game, just a open world train game where you explore and pick up cargo and passengers, riding the rails to some great music

Only Jack can overcomplicate something as simple as sails. With an indicator flag no less.

Jack: "I feel like I'm going to crash into things *a lot more* in this one." Jack in the last game: *Crashes into almost every single thing he could possibly crash into*

Jack trying to describe the scenery: "Definitely the Pacific Northwest. Up by Colorado. Maybe Portland?" Me, trying desperately to ignore the fact that he called an elk a deer: "CANADA."

I love this game so much. Okomotive has a real sense of how to create a good story just using an environment and sound. They really captured what most cheaper games can't. It was a beautiful experience to play.

Imagine if they make a third game in the sky and it’s these two adventuring together and maybe they eventually find a city with actual people in it. That would be so cool! Thanks for the fanatic let’s play, so fun to watch!

I always liked it when he recorded a full movie’s worth of footage for games. You can enjoy watching it with a snack or two!

As someone whos at through this one and the first one back to back straight it was such a amazing ride. Thank you jack for the experience i would have never gotten myself.

For everyone as curious as myself: Yes, at around 3:14:40 it's our ship "teleporting" from behind, visible for only a frame or two.

Any linear side scrolling game: exists Sean: THIS IS JUST LIKE INSIDE

POND SOLUTIONS: You want to buy some pond dye for it. The seagulls can’t see through the water to see the fish. Also add in things like drift wood for the fish to hide under.

I love that the first game takes place in an apocalyptic land where the water receded, and then this one shows where all the water went; to another land where the flooding caused its own apocalypse.

man i'd love to have a third one on an airship, that would be so cool

The ending of this game is actually sadder than i thought it would be, since the very start of the first one, lil firekid looks like they just buried their dad, and then in this one boatkid finds their mum(?) dead. the way they both stand their just looking at each other with less than joyful music, to me gives the vibe that they were both expecting to see the other parent. They can be deduced to be siblings as well since mum was found clutching a picture of firekid

I wonder how long it will take Sean to realize that the dead lady he finds in the ice cave paddle boat was the mother of the other character holding a picture of the red character.

I think my favorite part is Jack saying he'll take the plant as far as he can, knocking it into the water, and apparently forgetting that he can swim and dive in said water.

These games are metaphors for life, man. The long journey, the struggles, our parents leaving us behind and in the end it's really all about finding each other.

Honestly I could see the next game being a 2 player game. I think it would be fun to manage and control a giant ship or some sort of vehicle/mech with a friend

"Far: Wayward Skies" would be a cool name for a game where you operate a hot air balloon or blimp-type vehicle and navigate between floating islands

For the sails: the little flag at the front 1: always pointed in the direction the wind was going in. 2: When it was at the top the extra sails would come out & give you a boost.

Jack:so peaceful so far *not even five minutes later breaks something * Jack : we’re ok just a little dent

21:08 I don't think that Sean realizes that Colorado is about as far away from the ocean as you can get lmao

The fact that he played through the whole game without realizing there was a blue portion of the rope that the flag slides up and down to tell him how well his sail was positioned

Ah the intro, that’s how you know it’s gonna be a good game. Energy is on fire.

Thank you Sean. This series really helped me to sleep the past few days! I have insomnia, so it's a huge help. Thank you

I always love to listen to Jack’s commentary, advice, criticisms and appreciation at the end of a game. It makes me so glad that he’s enjoying the games he’s playing!! This was awesome :))

If there would be a far: sky bound it probably be a blimp. Just fits well with the theme of these games. Also glad Sean’s doing a non-horror game. Beautiful game and his commentary genuinely made me laugh.

Sadly couldn’t watch the whole thing in one sitting, so it took a couple days, but please do keep making longer videos like this, they’re my absolute favourite because they’re so chill to watch. Keep it up and do them when you can! I know its hard to find the time to, but its also totally fine that they dont come out as often as shorter videos

I sat through watching you play both games over the New Year. Amazing job Seàn! This was a masterpiece Duelogy.

Far Lone: Together sounds pretty cool for a third installment

Sean: “I wouldn’t be surprised if Lamborghini made boats” Me: LAMBOATGHINI

The sheer volume I yelled "HONK THE HORN" when I realized they were going to meet and the lil person in blue was still on the tower at the end omg, my heart soared watching this. Wonderful experience!! :D

Amazing game, the idea to connect the two games in such a beautiful way, is just wow. I get the same feeling from FAR series as I got from Journey or abzu, no dialog, amazing visuals, amazing music, that kind of games I would unironically call pieces of art. Even though they might not be long, like 3-4h they leave more of an impact on me, just the pure amount of emotion in such a short game. I just love that type of games.

Welp thought I was just gonna watch an hour or so then go to bed, but I ended up watching the whole thing in one go. Hopefully i wake up on time lol. You never disappoint Sean!

I just finished watching the FAR: Lone Sails play through today (I’d been meaning to watch it for weeks) and was wondering if you were still planning to do the sequel. What a happy coincidence

Watching this game and listening to Jack is such a chill and relaxing experience

I always love finding the longer play throughs. Having this on well working has made the last almost 4 hrs fly by, and made what I doing feel a lot less tedious.

Man, the music in Changing Tides and Lone Sails is disarmingly beautiful, absolutely chilling! The arrangements really suit the game with perpetually driving rhythms and adventurous yet very ambient chords and melodies and a stunning timbral palette! Absolutely blown away! Only an hour into the video and I had to go back to dissect "Circling" in particual, the track at about 35:00 because it literally gave me goosebumps, and although I love almost any kind of music, game OSTs or soundtracks in general aren't usually what I turn to when I want to listen to something (meaning no disrespect as I find many OSTs to be much more beautiful and complex than a lot of other music). So glad Jack played this game as I probably wouldn't have come across it or it's music if it weren't for this gameplay, same goes for Lone Sails. This actually made my day, thank you so much!

Jack: accidentally puts out furnace fire Also Jack: THERE’S GOTTA BE A WAY TO STOP THE ENGINE!

“Someone needs to explain to me why wanting clean drinking water makes you an activist, and why proposing to destroy water with chemical warfare doesnt make a corporation a terrorist.” -Winona LaDuke (1959-, Planet Earth)

I can safely say this was a great series to watch for 7 hours Great work Sean

Love when Jack takes the time to just enjoy the quiet moments. Like when he took the effort to go under surface for the jellyfish out to enjoy it. And his little commentary over the moments feels like a friend talking to you.

"I'm gonna take this plant with me as far as I can" immediately kicks plant in water😂 so much entertainment from one man. You sir have a gift of bringing joy to us all

Jack: *Brings a plant back* Me: *sees matching symbols on the plant and on what looks like a grow bed* "Oh! I guess he'll have to plant it!" Jack: *Hangs it up for storage* Me: "Okaaay.. He's almost there. Maybe the button there will do something. He'll figure it out" Jack: *Totally ignores new addition to the boat and said plant* Me: "He'll get it soon. He's a smart cookie" Jack: *moves plant to get burned* Me: "...jack?!" Jack: *BURNS THE PLANT!!!* Me: "JAAAAAACK!"

Can we talk about how amazing the art and music in this game is? Frickin beautiful.

I went back and watched the previous video like you said. Did NOT regret.

Sunday+10 am+ 3 hour gameplay= A relaxing day

Jack: “shall I do it guys, Ultra Instinct?” *my focus increased 1000%* Jack: “never mind” *my heart breaks*

Wow that's a masterpiece. These games are so unique and beautiful

Honestly watching it through one sitting was a great experience because it makes you keep track of everything yourself. Great video 10/10

The voice of youtube is still Jack. Always remember how much good content he has made.

I watched Sean play the first Far and fell absolutely in love with it, so when I heard there was a sequel I immediately bought it and played through the whole game right away. I was so excited to see he was playing it, mostly because I couldn’t wait for him to see the ending. These games are SO amazing. The art, the story (which is somehow so poignant without ever speaking a single word), the characters, the “lore,” the imaginative universe, the color choices, the music, the mechanics, the way they teach you the gameplay without it feeling dumbed down.. it’s just such an incredible game series. Truly a work of art. I really hope they make a 3rd one that offers co-op with both characters or at the very least that one person gets to play as both characters doing different jobs on a mix-matched vehicle of some type. But, even if they don’t release a third. I’m so thankful they created the two they did. They’re brilliant and beautiful and just amazing.

What a wonderful pair of games! Thanks for playing these Sean, big love.

I love these type of videos you make jack. the indie genre, the story and that you played the whole game in one video. AND it was a lot of fun playing the game on my own synced to your video. Thank you very much.

Me: *hasn’t sleep good in 2 days because nightmares* Also Me: oh look a 3 hour long video by jack Jack: Stay and get a snack! Me: will do!

I love how he’s like “I just put out my fire” and then like two mins later he’s like “how do I cut out my engine?”

Reminds me of inside. Man I I wish I could go back to watching that for the first time. Good ole days

Amazed. I love playing with camera and when you zoom out and become just a tiny being in big dark ocean. Also love to discover how the ship in working, without any tutorial. Game evokes all kind of emotions. Great experience. Piece of art for shure.

Jack would make a great sailor, seeing a whale and yelling "THERE'S A BIG FISH! IT WANTS ME DEAD!"

the sail actually functions semi-realistically, surprising I was screaming for him to lower the sail during the storm though

After a year, I finally have the rig to play this. And maaan, what an experience it was.

Thank you very very much for playing both of the games, it's not often that I'm able to relax as good as I did when watching you play these games. Always blown away by games that tell a story well by just showing scenery and playing fitting music without a single spoken word.

9:44 “Winds Howling” Instant flashbacks to Geralt saying that in-game. 😂🐺🖤⚔️ Loving this game so far, I love the art style, the music and overall atmosphere it creates; I love it. 💜☺️ Edit: Thank you for the Heart Jack!! 💜 This is like, a first for me. When it comes to a big RU-vidr instead of a friend; it’s an honour all the same. Completely made my entire year and I’m just, so immensely happy right now. I’m almost 3hrs into the video and I’m still loving it~ 🎶🎶 Edit: LMAO WAIT- THE HEART IS GONE??!! I DIDN’T KNOW EDITING IT WOULD DO THIS AHHH. 😂😭 Aw well. Have a nice day everyone, stay safe and be well. 💜

I could totally see them making the third game, you’ve titled sky bound, and having an airship to manage!

I just watched gab's ending to lone sails and backed it up with watching the ending of this video, and the pure joy it brought was immeasurable

I would like to thank Jack for introducing me to theses games, I’ve recently started to play them and I’m having a blast.

Seeing Tomas again and the fact they took it with them makes me ungodly happy

Hey Jack, I don’t know if you’ll see this, but it turns out that blue lady IS the main character’s mother(Or relative/guardian). How I know this is because just before you enter the green house at the beginning where her portrait is, that small room below the ladder has a child’s drawing affixed to the wall in the background. It features the playable character and the blue lady holding hands. And there is a special achievement should you bring the flower (from the greenhouse.) all the way to where her body is. The somber feeling when seeing her only cements the idea of a connection between the main character and her. (Also if you bring the flower and plant it just below the skylight in the house on your ship, it’ll grow even bigger.) And one last thing about the blue lady. When you discover her body, the paper she had in her hand was a picture of Lone (The main character from the first game.) The blue lady might have some connection to her, but that has yet to be seen. I thought someone should mention it, and I hope you see this. The creators of this game are masterful at being mysterious and subtle with their storytelling. Truly a ‘Blink and you miss it’ kind of game.

watched it all in one sitting, same with the first one! i really enjoy these videos and i hope you find more games with this length! thank you for making spectacular content as always!!

I love the idea of each subsequent game in this series adding a new person to the group and it evolves into a story about finding community despite the hardships that prevede it.

2:26:30 "Someone's gonna point out that there's a God who's crap at climbing as part of the religion" I mean, Hephaestus. Who was a cripple, was probably crap at climbing. Plus he was thrown off Olympus, which is, like, the opposite of climbing and thus caused him to be crippled.

An hour into the game... Sean: "OK Everyone take 5" me: "Oh ok"... *pauses and goes to refill my snacks Sean told me to get at the start.*

Can believe its already been over a year since this dropped always amazing to go back and watch some full play throughs

i absolutely love these full game playthroughs they are so nice to watch

They really made something special with these games. The atmosphere, the world building and environmental storytelling, it's a great series. And the art, truly amazing! I love the style.

Séan: "it looks like the pacific northwest. With the trees and the mountains" Me (someone born and raised in the pacific northwest): "and flooded"

The ship took off like the car in Chamber of Secrets! 🤣 It. Is. Pissed. Lol

I’ve been waiting for jack to play this and I’m so happy cause it’s a great game

With how these two games have been, I'm really hoping that they make a FAR : Roaring winds or something, where you have an airship type thing. That'd be SICK.

Jack : "This must be a mining town, right ?" _(Looks at Giant Hole on The Mountain)_ "Praise be The Mountain Mouth !!!" [48:51] _This isn't just a Normal Mining Colony,_ _This is Middle Earth's Moria !!!_

Putting this on to fall asleep at night is so perfect. Such a chill,relaxing video

These games (lone sails and changing tides) feel like a metaphor for life. There are hills and problems we have to face. And both of the games teach us that its always better to have a friend.

Me watching Jack put out the engine fire: Huh. He can stop the engine at anytime. Me watching Jack wondering how to stop the engine: DUDE YOU LITERALLY JUST DID IT. Lol

Jack: "I'm going to take this plant with me as far as I possibly can" *2 seconds later and the plant dies*

Been struggling with migraines and fatigue lately, this is the perfect chill playthrough for when I can’t do anything else❤

I pulled an all-nighter watching this gameplay. I loved the first one as much as I loved this one. Amazing vibes! And the name of both games reflected Sean's idea of "lone" and the "changing" tides.
