DM: You're walking down a hallway with a thousand locked doors. You try to- Julia: Is this one opened? DM: They're all locked. Julia: I jiggle the knob a li'l. Does it open? DM: Roll to see if the door opens. Julia: Natural 20 DM: You jiggle the knob and it does not open and you're convinced it never will. Now, you wal- Julia: What about this one? DM: They're all- Julia:Maybe if I jiggle it counter clockwise. DM:*sigh* Roll for investigation. Julia: 3. DM: You reach for the knob, but grab the air in front of it. Julia: I try the next door. DM: JULIA!
The dialog of the narrator pleading with Stanley and asking if he's there and if he's alright at 1:01:30 is so legitimately heart wrenching oh my God how can I find and comfort this poor man!
i love how the response to the jim button is consistently and universally to repeatedly press it as much as possible upon realizing it's sliding into the floor
I think the absolutely most ape shit wild part of this as that right when they start playing at 9:51 , julia clicks door 430 exactly 4 times, missing the achievement by 1 click.
Oh man, the "and I found it" when Julia found the source of the dripping was perfect. Such a big smile, she's so proud of finding the drip. It's a beautiful moment in Secret Sleepover Society gaming history.
The incredible timing of Jacob asking "So are we stuck here?" and then the screen blacking out and the narrator talking about how Stanley needs him to wrap everything up and make sense of it all.
Lol I watched every ending of the game and hours of gameplay when stanley parable first came out, but somehow Julia dug up dialogue options I had never heard within just the first five minutes. Classic
1:19:00 The treatise vs manifesto debate and monologue about choice is every single paper I ever wrote in university. Edit: Speaking of, I just graduated from university earlier today actually. And these vods have been instrumental in keeping me sane. Though, I’m not sure this game is a terribly great example of sanity but oh well XD Anyway, thanks!
It’s nice to know that apparently Julia too plays like a squirrel. Whenever I play The Stanley Parable I can’t help but stare at every detail and hope for something more, it feels like it’s all put in place for a reason. The doors and rooms you can’t open, the paintings on the walls, the papers on the floor that you can barely even read. I noticed that in the new content area the gray room where the Easter egg of the appearance of a second Stanley is in is blocked off by boxes, and to me that was interesting because it felt like a simple obstacle meant to be put in place for you to wonder why you couldn’t cross it. That’s exactly what I’ve wondered since the deluxe version came out, among many other things. I could talk for hours about this game and my obsession over its details. Needless to say I really adore it and I’m happy you guys are playing it!
It’s my favorite one. I was watching a different streamer and he would wait a couple of seconds before hitting the button. He got to the ‘is never the end is never the’ part and the entire chat was freaking out. It was terrifying
1:37:00Its so hilarious when Julia sees a door or almost any item she immediately goes to click it. And just when Jacob thought that was over, she still to tried to open the doors even after multiple endings lmao. She "plays like a squirrel" but he still loves her
I appreciate the chapter titles. 2/3 of the game is "Gaming?" and the last 1/3 is "Gaming." Very Stanley Parable. Also my headcanon is that the friend who followed the narrator's directions and then asked what the point of the game was was karina, and she did it passive aggressively to spite jacob.
Haha, this had such chaotic energy, with Julia whipping around and clicking everywhere and Jacob getting fed up with it. xD I really hope you get back to this game at some point, even if it's in your free time. There's a lot more fun and interesting stuff they added.
Nintendo can't have anyone playing games on their platform being made aware that other gaming platforms exist! Especially platforms that offer generous refund policies, large savings on games via discounts AND WORST OF ALL: the ability of purchasers to review the products they purchase! 😂
Julia's reaction to the French song in the Memory Zone is my favorite thing and so relatable as a bilingual French speaker, lmao. "Wait, that was actually French, right? What the - lmao the heavy accent on Memory Zone - wait what even is this accent - Canadian???" all with the silliest look of pleased confusion
This is my first Secret Sleepover Society I’ve ever watched and Julia is channeling so much Ogalvy energy and I’m so here for it. Just… the steady mischievous grin accompanied by complete silence is so hilarious.
That place you fell down into finally after rocket league was the original build of the game, it was a half life mod Also the game dev is dougdoug’s brother they did a stream together talking about the game and playing it
If you're of the landed gentry? The note you leave behind after going on a killing spree is called a "Treatise" If you're a commoner the note is called a "Manifesto" 🤣 F'kin' aristocracies are the same the world over! lol
The way the narrator pronounce "The end is never the end", it sounded like he was saying "Is Never the end?". Which I think is a great question! Is never the end?
Ok so for some reason I couldn't brain out what was on Jacobs shirt because the first thing I saw was the shoulder where two gengars intersect, and I somehow interpreted that the pattern was just a bunch of wario mustaches, like just the nose+mustache+smile and I was like yeah leave it to Jacob to work that look. 😂
No joke, the end of the 1:33:25 run, where we're just staring out into nothingness and then return to our regularly scheduled normality really left me in a weird kind of mood for a few hours. I had to step away and like, stare at the ceiling for a little bit. Got me thinking all kinds of things. This game is a masterpiece.
"Sequels are good: Aladdin 2: Return of Jafar" had me howling! I don't mind it but I didn't even know it existed until a babysitter brought it to my house one day and said it was the second movie. I had the original Aladdin and Aladdin King of Thieves and thought those were the only movies. XD To be fair, King of Thieves is far superior to Return of Jafar.
Let me just say that choosing to listen to this while I do chores around the house is hilarious. Non-stop doorjangles and narrator sass. loooooooooool! Julia, I adore you.
Ahh, 14:25 - that’s exactly how I played this game in its Half Life mod form and I was so confused about why people loved it. I feel like that says a lot about me and what it says isn’t great 😅
One of the few streams I was able to catch live and it was as brilliantly chaotic as I knew it would be. Been waiting for them to play this one for so long because it is just the perfect Julia game.
"Walk through the red door" Normal people disobeying the narrator: walks through the blue door Julia: does a 180 and stares at the clock for a disconcerting amoung of time
For the console releases of the ultra deluxe edition , the steam reviews are called pressurized gas for copyright reasons (I assume) which made me chuckle when playing it
I watched three play-throughs prior to this one. You are the only ones thus far who actually listened to the majority of the narrator's ramblings in the skip button room. You have the patience of absolute saints.
I know it was a little frustrating for Jacob at times, but it really was nice to see this game played another way. It was nice to see it played! Thank you both!
Speaking of Julia "whipping the camera too much" Lepetit...I had to watch this in two parts. Last night I was starting to feel a bit nauseous but I thought I'd been up too long.... XD Love you though, Julia! You're great!
