If you were impacted by our game, please consider supporting us by purchasing or gifting it to friends and family - available on Steam and Epic for $10. You guys are* awesome. Thank you Teo for sharing this incredible stream.
I love your game! Are you the voice of Richard? I swear I know the voice like it reminds me so much of Chad from Clarence but I'm not sure I just know I've heard it before somewhere
@@Jaakeup that's the voice of Eric Edelstein - and he indeed does play that role in Clarence! I did motion capture for Richard and other characters in some parts of the game.
@@jamesgames3043 “Idiot” doesn’t come off as “charming” to me. Yeah, there is the charming kind of idiot who acts dumb but it’s not like they’re ignorant so they’re alright. Teo just comes off as infuriating, even though I’m sure he’s not a bad guy.
What makes it even better, is that at the very start. The very first words your mom says to you is "what are you smiling at" while y'all are at the beach.
This hit so hard home. It’s so sad :( when he said “here before you is a child who died before he could grow old” I lost it. This was so beautifully made
I love how Benny’s mother didn’t like having the cat around but was very loving to the cat when she came back while Benny was sick. She was empathetic to the cat because her own child is at death’s door
@@jamesgames3043 How so? I think her character was one of the most easily understandable ones since it’s clear what her motivations are, especially since her character is clearly inspired by real experiences that aren’t uncommon in many families
I haven't cried this much in a while. Truly amazing game here. Honestly, at the end of the game they should've done a "In loving memory of," where it then just says, "Your damn feelings," and then it shows a picture that it took of you crying during the gameplay.
Ik this is late but i wanna give u a tip so if u don't wanna pay for vids without ads just skip to the end video and press the restart button and it should get rid of the ads if it doesnt click another video and go back and try it again
Whenever I need a good cry I tend to come back to this video. This game is absolutely beautiful and just resonates with my soul. I’ve always enjoyed watching Teo play games and this one is certainly special. Thank you Teo.
When Teo started talking about wanting to hug his dad and realising he can’t yet , it brings you back into a sense of reality of how difficult it is for some people to not have that human contact during corona. We all feel you on that one Teo
Seen a couple of playthroughs because Im not going to get a chance to play this but i bought it just to support the indie developer for such a beautifully sad game. It brought up intense memories, feelings, and thoughts throughout all of it. One of the best games of the year for real.
Motherhood, and my bond with my own mother who has been in the hospital for two years, is some of the most important things to me. I've always wanted kids, and always suffered from a crippling fear of losing all of it, my mother, my dreams, my possible children, illness and disease. That Dragon, Cancer DESTROYED me for days. I remember watching it and feeling so. Horribly empty. As if I'd lost something. I knew, the moment the kid got sick, that something was off, and it was going to be one of THOSE stories, and it hurt the entire time I watched it. But these kinds of stories still feel so important. Idk where I'm going with this tbh. Just that it was a really, really good game, I guess.
I'm 18 years old and I'm playing video games since I was about 4 or 5 but I've never ever had such strong emotional link between a game and myself. Only the fact that this storyline could happen to anyone brought tears in my eyes. I'm happy I watched it and I'm pretty sure that this experience is going to stay with me forever❤❤
I honestly think watching Teo play this game is the best. Teo is so intact with his emotions and not afraid to display them that watching this was beautiful and very emotional. God bless ya Teo! Much love!
SPOILERS Something that’s really cool that the game kind of didn’t communicate well was at the end if you blinked when the mother was reading the story it would switch back to the ferryman reading the same story. It would keep switching back and forth everytime you blink and it’s a pretty cool detail. Though it might’ve hit harder that it was just the mother reading it. Regardless, good play through!
Before I watched this video the last time I cried was when my mom died and that was 10 years ago, I don’t know why this hit me so hard but man was it a good game. Thanks for all the years of happiness Teo!
the hardest part of this for me is when i’m already crying, and then seeing teo crying and alex comforting him, because it makes me feel sad i don’t have a partner to cry on, anyways thanks teo you are the best
@Kim Squires I hope you have someone now. I've been alone for over 10 years because of my PTSD (combat veteran). But I'm old enough that it's not as important anymore. It's a lot harder when you're young.
3 years old to this game and i still find myself coming back and watching it because of the pure emotion felt not only witnessing the game, but teos reaction to it.
Game: "This is a game about blinking. Blink when you see a metronome to progress" Teo through most of it: "I think I have to blink" *metronome is clearly shown*
Holy shit I can't believe it has already been 9 months since this stream was posted on More Teo. I have to say that this stream really did help bring more emotion and color back into my life when Covid was at its peak and I was struggling to adapt to my first year of college. Thank you Teo for streaming it with your loving and real personality and thank you to the creators of Before Your Eyes for creating this awe-inspiring game.
This video of yours brought me genuine tears. It changed my perception on life and I actually went to mother to tell her I love her and cried like in her arms as if I had lost everything. Thank you for playing this game and giving me the opportunity to watch it. Seriously. Thank you.
Honestly don't know what to feel from here and on. Such a rollercoaster! 1:51:39 - 2:00:36 He Semi-Happy 1:51:42 He Sad: 1:51:55 He Smiles and Laughs: 1:54:54 He Cries: 1:55:37 We all sob 1:55:59 We sob again: 1:58:09 We Laugh 1:59:24
As much as you cherish your life and the people in it, sometimes you take it all for granted. Games like these put it all into perspective and I can't tell how grateful I am for still being able to have my parents with me and to be able to hold them tightly. Thank you Teo for allowing us to experience this with you. It's been a pleasure and a privilege to grow with you throughout the years and watch you become this amazing human being. Thank you for everything, man. Much, much love
The orator gave him a story that shows the player choosing their road to happiness; but, on the way to the Gatekeeper, the Orator had to inform the player of what actually happened in life, as not to lie to the Gatekeeper. Looking back at the beginning, the realization when the Liar Birds start immediately squawking when the Orator said he was going to tell the player the story of 'their life' caused me to BURST into tears. Fantastic game.
The story in this game is amazing. Great work from the devs. They need to make more games like this or in this style, I think its really good narrative telling device. Stories like this remind us of how lucky some of us are to just be alive and to live every day likes it is your last, because it very well could be. To enjoy the time with family and friends, no matter how bad things can get. And that some people in this world are taken at such a young age end never get to experience life fully, is very sad and heart-breaking. But that even being born, being alive, is a gift in and of itself.
Teo is one of the few youtubers who show true emotions that I can feel through a screen. I love to watch these kinds of game. Love you teo, thank you for experiencing this with us too
When Teo started crying at the end I couldn't help myself and I started to cry too, especially when he was talking about hugging his dad. This year has been hard and I have split parents so I've only seen my dad 1 time this year. I know lots of people are going through tough times, so hopefully everybody is doing well right now, and if you aren't... keep holding on. We're going to get out of this soon. Much love to you all.
I may not know Teo. Ive only ever watched him on RU-vid, I´m not one for livestreams. But seeing my man cry at the end, man i really wanted to give him a hug. Here is to hoping that he feels hugged. Blessed content creator
Seeing Teo trying to hold it down was very wholesome he always wants his community to be happy so he didn’t want to worry us. But once he saw Alex come in he couldn’t hold it in and that part really made me shed a tear :’)
I remember playing this game the day it came out. I knew it was going to make me cry but I didn't think it would make my eyes turn into a pressure washer with tears just spraying out.
Man, it's been a long while since i shed tears, this game is both beautiful and phenomenal, a masterpiece i would say. I'm someone whose just hollowed inside but this blessing touched my soul. Such a wondeful game.
Oh man! First time I cried for a game... So beautiful. When teo said "I wanna hug my parents now" and then strted crying, it was like a dam that just collapsed. Oh god, such a good cry T_T
@@rundome8233 he didn’t blink through the whole sequence so if he knew that was the same story the ferryman told the gatekeeper as his way into the afterlife. I’m sure teo would have broke
Such a Strong and Emotional Game! Made me realize that "Every good Will end but, not every bad Will start" (Quote by My Dad) Is a Quote That Was and Will Make life Great No mater What!
this might be my favorite playthorugh so far cause when i played this game it made me cry the hardest a game has ever made me cry possible the hardest ive cried at anything shows, movies, games, everything im so glad i got to go through with you cause this game is so amazing and heartbreaking but in a good way thank you so much for this
What a beautiful game, what an amazing journey. Wish I was there to watch it live, but I was here to watch every second. Absolutely loved the video and I’m so glad I got to experience it with my favourite creator. Much love, Teo!
Dude, i was crying with you and then suddendly popups your webcam calibration at the credit scene, i lost it there HAHAHHAHHH crying and laughing so hard at the same time hahahahah didn't expect it!
Just finished the game like an hour ago, I played it with my girlfriend and to be honest even that I watched the stream before playing and knew what would happend, playing it myself blinking when I wanted to, really got me a lot, I really recommend you guys buying it and trying it out for yourselves. Greetings from Mexico and good crying.
