My impression of this game is that the devs were originally like "hey let's make a cute little minigame where you're a cat in a cyberpunk city and you just vibe for like an hour or two and there's no plot or anything" but then the first trailer got super popular and Sony offered to give them 80 morbillion dollars and then went "uhhh fuck I guess we gotta try to make a real game now"

As a fun challenge, I tried to get more in the mindset of a cat by setting the language to what I think was Japanese, at any rate a language I couldn't read, and see how far a cat who neither understood nor really cared about what anyone was saying could get. I managed to get pretty far on cat-esque exploring and the occasional directional gesturing of NPCs, right up until the big city, where you get the clothes. It got me thinking, though, something they might have done, had they tried for the non-verbal storytelling approach, was actually made use of the fact that the people are robots with monitors for heads, and flashed up icons of what they want or need. An image of the construction outfit, or the cameras, maybe the bar sign or a robot drinking. Really, why else would they set it up so the people are robots instead of actual people? (That's a legitimate question, I played like 3/4 of the game in things that aren't even real letters, I have no idea what's going on, help!)

I like how you acknowledge that a lot of people look at Stray and go "oh shit you can play as a cat? 10/10" and cos of that people sometimes focus on how cool the premise is more than what the actual gameplay is like. But at the same time you acknowledge that playing as a cat *is* *still* an incredibly fun concept. And then you take it one step further and actually break down how the game makes you feel like you're a cat: how the simple movement mechanics lets players navigate any obstacle with ease, while the incredibly lifelike animations captures the gracefulness of your movement. Which is why the few jerky animations or visual bugs are so harmful to a game that prides itself on its smallest details. Rock-solid analysis. Yep them's my thoughts. I've always loved how you recognise the good with the bad in order to consistently provide balanced reviews. Its honestly amazing. Thanks for the vid!!

I played this game along with my oldest brother. We lost our cat 2 months ago and the cat lived a very very very long life. It was almost 18. She was very social, nice, smart, and a very good cat. I cried playing this game for the first 10 minutes because of how cute it was seeing it interact with the cats and the environment. It really helped with my grief even if I had been happy with her life and that I spent a lot of time with her near the end. I might be biased but I loved this game and I'll always remember that cat through the memories I shared with family and stray. Just a shame I couldn't share it with her.

Cat owner here, and I thought the same thing (kind of). On one hand, it's very cat-accurate, so huge points for that. Almost makes you feel like you're a cat. On the other though, it's still limiting (and possibly boring), as most are used to having to manually time jumps and such, rather than it being automated and simplified. So in short, realistic doesn't necessarily equal fun. Unless of course, you don't enjoy typical platforming frustration (which is part of the fun for the average Platfomer player I'd say)

Stray had a really awesome concept, but the moment they started having NPCs speak to you directly and give you quests and tell you about lore was where the game lost me. You don't play a game where the fantasy is to be a cat so you can get exposition dumps and do basic RPG quests for rewards. That sort of stuff should have been incidental and background detail or things you have to put together yourself from hints in the world that the cat doesn't care about, but you as the player would.

Cat game where he saves the world on accident is actually a dope concept… The cat has his own story line!

tbh, i was very impressed with the mechanics, because i wasn't expecting any.. I literally thought when i first saw pieces of this game for the first time a while ago, that it was gunna be a silly cat simulator, and having seen no trailer or videos on it, i had zero expectations.. and it creatively pulled out more mechanics and environmental gameplay integrations than i thought i wanted.. also the game had a lot of very cool pop culture easter eggs. There was a Doc and Marty easter egg, the wallpaper in one of the room was the iconic carpet pattern from the shining, there were more but i cant remember.. the game design from characters to environment to music had so much style, and so much drawback to old style games like FF7 vibes. To me what really made the game a masterpiece was the overall style it had. and it was a lot of stuff that needed to work together to make it work, so, so much props to the development team for that, i bet it took a crazy amount of attention to piece everything together.

I think where this game really excels is in its atmosphere, world building, and pacing. Yes, it is a simple, short game that definitely has “indie” flaws. Flaws aside, I became totally immersed in Stray’s world and the small touches where the game allows you to explore at your own pace really sold it for me. The “catnap” spots you can find where the game gradually zooms out to show you the level design all while beautiful atmospheric music plays felt refreshing and highly enjoyable. I also appreciate that the main reward for exploration were memories/exposition related to the story. While the game would be nice with more cosmetic or materialistic rewards, the memories drew me into the story and really made me want to solve the mystery of the plot, which felt like the correct choice in my opinion.

@@Daffodyl3 imo the game didnt need the perfect pacing that much. It just took the concept of playing as a cute realistic cat and added in an interesting world and for me thats all i need. The game isnt that long and ive seen many people complaining it wasnt longer. To me the game didnt mean to be any shorter or longer. I thought it was perfect the way it was. But the fact that you get tired when you do non stop grinding and making sure you get everything is something that goes for all games if not most. At least thats how i personally feel

your issue with the story being narrated through text-boxes was one of the reasons i was skeptical too. i feel like this game could’ve been so much more immersive if you had to piece the story together yourself with clues you find along the way.

or at least frame it as such so that it'll seem that a cat's curiosity saved the world instead of causing chaos, for once. but with the current setup, if you replace the cat with a tiny human being, there'll be no change.

Yeah. Should’ve had the robots talk to you, but since you’re a cat it comes across as gibberish, maybe just understanding a word here or there. Then your reward for beating the game is you can understand everything that’s being said in a subsequent play through to give more context and information if you so desire.

@@ThanhNgo-jn7bm Lol. The bot translates just about 99% of everything the robots say to you. And the bot even talks to you. And based off of the cats behavior, the cat can also understand the bot. The scriptures have also been decoded already, and all of the important descriptors are either already translated for you by B-12, or are already standardized warning symbols such as the exclamation mark on a triangular sign.

Joking aside it should be rather obvious that those premises are very different even if they at first glance don't seem like it. Now I'm with most of you personally; I don't intend to play a walking simulator simply because it's with a cat. But I do get why some people would. I usually despise survival games, but was very much into Subnautica simply because it was under water :)

I'm glad that someone finally commented on the fact that the addition of being able to talk to NPCs through text boxes turns a game about a cat into a normal RPG. Don't get me wrong, the game would be totally different if the protagonist wasn't a cat, because the gameplay is about having the mobility of a cat, but the storytelling leaves something to be desired.
@Charmlie.R

The game trailers early on gave me really strong rain world vibes, being separated early and exploring through a post apocalyptic world inbetween. I was a bit disappointed in the text, because it did make it lose all that potential of exploring as an animal, strengths and weaknesses together with exploration of a potential ecosystem even if simple. I had a great time, but it really really felt like the game was mostly Follow linear trail through story, reach hub world you could have fun exploring that is full of classic semi uninspired fetch quests forcing exploration, linear segment, etc. I would definitely describe it as a unique perspective parkour game where looking for potential platforms to move around is the large appeal with wacky sections inbetween to develop a plot and move between settings. Its crazy to me how after playing it, most of my ways to describe the game sound like negative criticism and a lot are, but i still had a really fun time exploring the city looking for beams or ACs even if it wasn't free movement. The areas are pretty, but there's definitely jank that comes from the tonal disconnect of being an exploration game where the exploration is in forced chunks. At one point I spent a long time exploring an entire area, finding little items and things, only to move onto the story part and just already have a dozen key quest items and potential fetch quests done from exploring myself. It makes those feel underwhelming, but yet I'm glad I explored myself instead of just feeling like i was on another rpg find key open door find key open door loop. I still was, i just did it before I was told to do so. And at the very least I'm glad those aren't locked behind a story trigger, though it is strange I just know what might be valuable out of every possible thing to find.
