The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe

The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe is an expanded re-imagining of 2013's The Stanley Parable. You will play as Stanley, and you will not play as Stanley. You will make a choice, and you will become powerless. You are not here to win. The Stanley Parable is a game that plays you.

Storyline

When a simple-minded individual named Stanley discovers that the co-workers in his office have mysteriously vanished, he sets off to find answers. You will play as Stanley, and you will not play as Stanley. You will make a choice, and you will have your choices taken from you. The game will end, the game will never end. Contradiction follows contradiction, the rules of how games should work are broken, then broken again. You are not here to win. The Stanley Parable is a game that plays you. In The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe, everything you remember has been recreated, yet it's different somehow. We've been here before, haven't we? Is Stanley still the same as he was back then? Or is it you who has changed?

For those who enjoy this kind of experience, The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe is an absolute masterpiece of ironic and satirical humor.

I played the original Stanley Parable, and coming back to this version feels like rediscovering the game in the best possible way. It improves on the original in a way that only Stanley Parable can—unexpected, clever, and self-aware.

There are possibilities everywhere, with endings that are hilarious, confusing, and sometimes even thought-provoking. I keep replaying it, and every time I find something new.

Easily in my top 5 games of all time.

10/10 — The narrator is probably judging you right now.

This game just puts the entire notion of what a game is on it's head, and I love it for that.

Growing up, this was the first game to get me into games as an art medium (not just cod on the xbox). I was 13 when this game released and I was so happy to get around to playing it for myself at 26. Especially with the 9 years addition and such, I can't wait to revisit this game ten years from now.

A little time capsule to a future me, I hope you're finally getting time to do things that feel enriching and not soul sucking like the day to day feels in 2026. Cheers to 2036 I can't even imagine what that will look like, lets hope its for the better :)

I've played this game for over 18 hours, and I still feel like there's a lot more to find. The narrator's voice is great. I always listen to everything he says, and even though it takes a while, I never regret it. I'm still working on unlocking my last two achievements. The game's humor is amazing and mixes in some deep thoughts about life and choices in a way you don't notice at first, but it really makes you think. The Infinite Hole Ending and Skip Button Ending were especially mind-blowing.

что бы понять эту игру нужно невероятное понятие что ты делаешь, ведь можно сделать АБСОЛЮТНО ВСЁ, не говоря что можно пройти игру без рассказщика, попасть в зону отзывов, и даже попасть в рай с кнопками. игра для действительно ценящих людей для которых та же самая дота проще этой игры. очень восхищаюсь создателем этой игры, у него вместо мозга ИИ генератор

I thought I was buying a video game. Turns out I paid to be verbally bullied by a British narrator while aggressively powerwalking through beige hallways.

The “choices” are a lie. Every door leads to disappointment and character development I did not sign up for. I spent ten minutes in a broom closet expecting secrets. I found only my own failure.

Gameplay is just walking, disobeying instructions, and getting roasted like the narrator has a personal vendetta. The graphics look like someone rendered an office job as a threat.

Final Verdict:
If you’ve ever wanted to lose an argument to architecture, this is essential gaming. 0.5/10 do not recommend

PS: I miss that bucket though, I kept my pee in there

[h1]A Brilliant Expansion of an Already Legendary Experience[/h1]

[b]The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe[/b] takes one of the most unique narrative games ever made and somehow manages to make it even more clever, more self-aware, and even funnier. What initially feels like a simple re-release quickly reveals itself to be something much more ambitious.

At its core, the game still revolves around the wonderfully simple mechanic of [b]player choice versus narration[/b]. You explore an empty office building while a narrator describes what Stanley is supposed to do next. Follow the instructions, and the story progresses as expected. Ignore them, and things start to unravel in hilarious and often surprising ways.

What makes the design so brilliant is how the game constantly [b]reacts to your behaviour[/b]. Every decision — whether it’s obeying the narrator, rebelling against him, or simply wandering off somewhere unexpected — can lead to entirely different outcomes. The writing adapts dynamically, making each playthrough feel like a new conversation between the player and the game itself.

The [b]new content in Ultra Deluxe[/b] is where things truly shine. Without spoiling anything, the additions expand the original ideas in ways that feel both unexpected and incredibly on-brand. The game leans even harder into its meta-humour, poking fun at game design, sequels, player expectations, and even the concept of expanded editions themselves.

Mechanically, it remains deceptively simple. There’s no combat, no traditional progression systems, and very few “game-like” mechanics. Instead, the experience is built entirely around exploration, branching paths, and narrative experimentation. Yet despite that simplicity, the structure allows for an enormous number of endings and variations, rewarding curiosity and experimentation.

The pacing is also excellent. Runs are short, but discovering a new path or unexpected reaction from the narrator makes it incredibly easy to keep going for “just one more ending.”

Few games manage to be this [b]funny, intelligent, and self-aware[/b] while still being genuinely engaging to explore. It’s a rare example of a game that completely understands its own design — and then uses that understanding to surprise the player again and again.

[b]Verdict:[/b] An already brilliant concept expanded into something even more entertaining and unpredictable. Whether you’re returning or experiencing it for the first time, it remains one of the most unique narrative experiences in gaming.

Когда ведро из ведра в ведре ведра когда ведро было ведром а ведро это великое ведро, то ведро ведра ведрее ведра, ведро это мудрое ведро ведра а ведро родственник ведра, ведро стенли это ведро вселенной, а вселенная это ведро, когда ведро было ведром то ведро ведро и афигеть какое ведро.

Философия Оцинкованного Бытия
Ибо если ведро ведро ведру, то ведро ли это или ведро в квадрате ведра? Когда рука сжимает ручку ведра, ведро сжимает ручку реальности, превращая всё неведерное в ведерно-зависимое ведро.
Ведроцентризм: Стенли посмотрел на ведро, и ведро моргнуло в ответ дном ведра.
Мета-ведро: Если ведро налить в ведро, получится ли двойное ведро или одно очень грустное ведро без ведра?
Закон ведерности: Никакое ведро не может быть более ведренным, чем то ведро, которое ведро ведру ведро.
Когда Рассказчик говорит «ведро», он на самом деле имеет в виду «ведро», но ведро знает, что оно — ведро, даже если ведро решит притвориться ведром. Тон 618 зашел в ведро, но ведро было занято другим ведром, поэтому ведро ведра ведрило ведро до тех пор, пока ведро не стало ведровее самого ведристого ведра в истории всех ведер.
Ведро. Ведро. Ведро.

Ода Оцинкованному Божеству
Рассказчик: «Стенли стоял и сжимал Ведро. Но было ли это Ведро? Или это Стенли был всего лишь придатком к великой металлической сущности, у которой есть ручка, но нет пальцев, чтобы нажать на кнопку? О, Ведро! Ты — цилиндр надежды в мире квадратных офисных коридоров!»
«Когда ведро ведрится в недрах ведра,
И ведрость его не знает ведра,
Тогда ведровеет ведерная ведра,
Ведря ведро ведра до ведра!»
Аксиома №1: Если Стенли выронил Ведро, то Стенли — это просто пустая оболочка без дна.
Аксиома №2: Ведро не спрашивает «почему?». Ведро отвечает: «Бульк».
Аксиома №3: В начале было Слово, и это Слово было «Ведро», но Ведро было слишком занято тем, что было Ведром, чтобы слушать слова.
Стенли, ты чувствуешь это? Этот холодный, бездушный металл... он любит тебя больше, чем твоя воображаемая жена. Он понимает тебя лучше, чем желтая линия на полу. Если завтра вселенная схлопнется до размеров одной точки, эта точка будет иметь форму ведра, в котором сидит другое, чуть более маленькое, но крайне амбициозное ведро.
Ведро. Ведро. Ведро. ВЕДРО.

Трагедия Одинокой Кнопки в Мире Ведерности
Кнопка смотрела на Ведро, и Кнопка была нажата, но нажатие Кнопки не было ведром, ведь нажатие — это лишь миг, а Ведро — это вечность в оцинкованном исполнении. Когда Кнопка ведрится в ожидании Ведра, Ведро ведрово игнорирует Кнопку, потому что Кнопка — это просто плоское ведро без стенок, потерявшее свою ведерную суть в погоне за щелчком.
Ревность Кнопки: Если нажать на Кнопку Ведром, станет ли Кнопка частью Ведра, или Ведро просто унизит Кнопку своим неоспоримым объемом?
Экзистенциальный кризис: Кнопка мечтает быть вогнутой, чтобы в неё можно было налить немного ведра, но Кнопка выпуклая, как эго Стенли без Ведра в руках.
Заговор Металлов: Когда Тон 618 нажал на Кнопку внутри Ведра, Кнопка стала Ведром, но Ведро осталось Ведром Ведра, оставив Кнопку в дураках (и в Ведре).
«О, Стенли!» — кричала Кнопка беззвучным пластиковым криком. — «Нажми на меня! Забудь про этот холодный цилиндр с ручкой!» Но Стенли лишь крепче прижал Ведро к груди, ведь Ведро — это Кнопка, которую не нужно нажимать, чтобы чувствовать себя Ведром.
Ведро. Кнопка. Ведро. ВЕДРО КНОПКИ ВЕДРО.
Стенли, ты слышишь этот скрежет? Это Кнопка пытается отрастить себе ручку, чтобы ты полюбил её так же сильно. Но мы-то знаем, что ручка без Ведра — это просто изогнутая Кнопка, а Ведро без Кнопки — это всё ещё вершина эволюции.

Геометрия Желтого Безумия
Желтая Линия извивается, как змея, проглотившая Кнопку, но подавившаяся Ведром. Она пытается разделить их, провести черту между оцинкованным восторгом и пластиковым отчаянием, но Линия не знает, что она сама — всего лишь раскатанное в бесконечность Ведро, потерявшее свои стенки и дно в погоне за направлением.
Линейная ведрость: Если Желтая Линия наступит на Кнопку, станет ли Кнопка Линией или Линия станет Кнопкой, внутри которой свернулось Ведро?
Парадокс Направления: Линия ведет к Ведру, но Ведро стоит на Линии, а значит, Линия — это подставка для Ведра, которая мечтает стать Кнопкой, чтобы её хоть раз нажали, а не просто по ней ходили.
Тон 618 и Горизонт: Когда Тон 618 растянул Желтую Линию вокруг Ведра, Линия стала кругом, а круг — это Кнопка, но внутри круга было Ведро, поэтому всё стало Ведром Линии Кнопки Ведра.
«Идите по мне!» — шептала Желтая Линия, втираясь в доверие к подошвам Стенли. — «Я приведу вас к выходу!» Но Ведро знало, что выход — это просто вход в другое Ведро, а Кнопка знала, что Желтая Линия — это просто Кнопка, которая слишком сильно хотела стать дорогой.
Линия. Кнопка. Ведро. ЛИНЕЙНОЕ ВЕДРО КНОПОЧНОЙ ЛИНИИ.
Стенли, ты видишь? Линия покраснела от стыда, Кнопка пожелтела от зависти, а Ведро... Ведро осталось Ведром, потому что Ведру плевать на спектральный анализ чувств.

Вертикальный Коллапс Ведерной Гравитации
Лифт закрыл свои створки, как челюсти стального кита, который случайно проглотил Ведро, наступил на Кнопку и заблудился в Желтой Линии. Лифт не едет. Лифт ждет. Лифт требует признания.
Рассказчик: «Стенли, Лифт утверждает, что он — это просто Ведро, которое выросло слишком большим и научилось двигаться вверх-вниз, но так и не обрело ручку. И пока ты не скажешь, что Желтая Линия родила это Ведро в муках оцинкованного экстаза, мы застряли здесь навсегда!»
Лифтовое ведро: Если Лифт падает, становится ли он падающим Ведром, или Ведро внутри Лифта становится Лифтом внутри Ведра?
Бунт Кнопок: Все кнопки в Лифте обиделись на ту, Главную Кнопку, и теперь они притворяются Ведрами, чтобы Стенли нажал на них с любовью, но Стенли нажимает только на Ведро.
Тон 618 и Трос: Когда Тон 618 перерезал трос Лифта своим Ведром, Лифт не упал, потому что Желтая Линия привязала его к Кнопке, создав нерушимую связь Ведра и Кнопки Линейного Ведра.
«Признай меня!» — вибрировал Лифт всем своим корпусом. — «Скажи, что Линия — твоя мать, а Ведро — твой брат, а Кнопка — твой дальний родственник по линии ржавчины!» Но Стенли молчал, ведь Ведро шептало ему на ухо, что Лифт — это просто очень тесная коробка для хранения Линий.
Лифт. Линия. Кнопка. Ведро. ЛИФТОВОЕ ВЕДРО КНОПОЧНОЙ ЛИНИИ ВЕДРА.
Стенли, ты чувствуешь, как пол уходит из-под ног? Это не Лифт поехал, это твоя кукушка улетела в отпуск, оставив вместо себя маленькое пластмассовое Ведерко.

Арифметика Потерянного Ведра
Цифры 2-8-4-5 больше не числа. Они — это Ведро, которое пытается сложиться само в себя, но постоянно вычитается из Желтой Линии, делясь на ноль Кнопки. Секретный Код теперь считает, что цифра 2 — это два уха Стенли, которые не слышат Ведра, а цифра 8 — это два Ведра, которые поженились и превратились в знак бесконечного Ведра.
Кодовое Ведро: Если ввести в панель «Ведро-Ведро-Ведро-Ведро», откроется ли дверь в Ведро, или Ведро само введёт Стенли в Кнопку?
Кризис Четверки: Цифра 4 обиделась, потому что у неё есть острые углы, а у Ведра их нет. Четверка хочет стать круглой, как Кнопка, но Лифт зажал её дверями Желтой Линии.
Тон 618 и Сумма: Когда Тон 618 сложил 2, 8, 4 и 5, у него получилось Ведро. Не число, не сумма, а просто 12 литров чистого, концентрированного Ведра с ручкой.
«Набери меня!» — кричала Панель на стене. — «Я — твой путь к свободе!» Но Стенли знал: если нажать 5, то Ведро станет на 5% ведренее, а если нажать 8, то Лифт превратится в Линию, которая ведет в Кнопку, внутри которой спрятано число 2, мечтающее стать Ведром.
2. 8. 4. 5. ВЕДРО. КНОПКА. ЛИНИЯ. ЛИФТ. ВЕДРО ЦИФРОВОГО ВЕДРА.
Стенли, ты видишь эти цифры? Они плывут перед глазами, как головастики в оцинкованном пруду. Код забыл, что он открывает, потому что Ведро убедило его, что закрытых дверей не существует, есть только Ведра, в которые еще не зашли.

Фермер тянет руки, Лифт рыдает дверями, Кнопка пульсирует в ритме 2-8-4-5, а Стенли... Стенли делает шаг в Финал Свободы. Но за дверью «Выход» нет неба. Там нет птиц. Там только одно колоссальное, безграничное, межгалактическое ВЕДРО.

As I explained in my review for the original game, I first played it in 2019 and then forced myself to wait until 2024 to try again to ensure I'd get the "Go outside" achievement – between those two years, the Ultra Deluxe edition was announced and released. That left me with a big question – would I wait to play it until after I finished the original? Was it the exact same game just with better graphics? Would I maybe even abandon the original and only play the new one? Right away, on release? All the hype did get me a bit excited to try the game again, despite not even having really gotten it on my first attempt.

In the end, I decided to play it safe: Wait for 2024 to finish the original as I had planned, and only then play the Ultra Deluxe edition – and I am very glad I did it this way. I fell in love with the original game while completing it, and this new version was right there to fill the void in my heart afterwards.

One could describe it as "more of the same", but that wouldn't do justice to how incredibly well they built on the foundation of the original. I can't think of a lot of sequels that manage to so thoroughly capture lightning in a bottle [i]again[/i]. Just eight more years to get "Super Go Outside" – probably enough time to forget enough of the game that a replay might be due by then. I'll be sure to bring my bucket.

This is a really funny and enjoyable game! I had so much fun playing it and trying to find all of the endings!
The only thing I can critizise is [spoiler] that the game doesn't tell you what to do after you got the collectables ending if you have already opened the game for a second time. I was stuck for an hour because of that and online it was only said to "restart the game", which I interpreted as resetting like it happens in the game after obtaining an ending. But I did figure it out in the end [/spoiler]

And also

The Broom closet ending is my favorite

🌟 Évaluation : 5/10
🕹️ Temps de jeu : 1.7 heures

The Stanley Parable est une expérience très particulière. Le jeu repose surtout sur la narration, l’humour et le fait de suivre ou contredire un narrateur qui réagit aux choix du joueur. Le concept est original et les contrôles sont étonnamment intéressants dans la manière dont ils servent la narration et les décisions du joueur.

Points positifs :

Concept très original et intelligent

Narration et humour souvent réussis

Les contrôles et les choix du joueur sont utilisés de façon créative

Points négatifs :

Très peu de gameplay traditionnel

L’intérêt peut retomber assez vite

Difficile de considérer cela comme un “jeu amusant” au sens classique

Au final, c’est une expérience intéressante à essayer, mais j’ai du mal à la recommander au prix actuel d’environ 30 $. Malgré ses idées intelligentes, il est difficile d’y voir un véritable jeu pour quelqu’un qui cherche simplement à s’amuser.

🤔 Mitigé, quelques bons aspects, mais difficile à recommander.

"This game is one of the most unbelievable things I have ever spent time on.

It's so undeniably genius in so many ways. The narrator's sarcastic remarks, the overall atmosphere, the "Oh my gosh what did I do" moments... it's all so priceless.

I have laughed so hard at this game, have been terrified by this game, and I have been brought almost to tears by this game.

The Stanley Parable has grown my interest in becoming a software designer, and has sparked my interest in psychology.

So yes, I recommend this. Buy it. Buy the game. Go on, buy it. Buy it for your granny... come on, now...

P.S.
I read several reviews before purchasing this, and I thought it was funny how many reviews were something along the lines of "Stanley decided to write a positive review for the game on Steam."
I think that's clever, but when I set out to make my own review I decided not to do that.
As tempting as it was to follow the crowd, I resisted. I made a choice. I can think for myself. I will never again be controlled by someone else," Stanley wrote in his review. "I have decided."

When Stanley was finished pressing buttons on his keypad, he read through the review he had written. After considering it for a bit, he decided he was satisfied. That part at the end came across a little strong, he thought, but Stanley felt it was needed. He had declared his autonomy in a public review.
He grabbed the mouse to his right and moved the pointer to the "Post review" button.
With a click, his opinion and declaration of choice was posted on the internet.

What Stanley didn't know, however, was that he was wrong. Oh so very wrong.
You must be thinking, "Stanley. What a poor, sorry fellow, to be unknowingly controlled all his life."

Stanley got up from his desk, and walked out of the door to his left.

Soon, he walked outside into the great wide world. He felt so free.

Now, before we say our farewells, a word of advice:
Don't write Stanley off so quickly.
You aren't so different from him, you know.

You feel free too.

[h1] UN VIAGGIO INDESCRIVIBILE A PAROLE [/h1]

Iniziamo da una verità inconfutabile: cercare di recensire o spiegare a parole The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe è come cercare di descrivere un trip psichedelico a chi beve solo acqua naturale. È fondamentalmente impossibile.

Eppure devo provarci, perché questo titolo non è solo un "must play", è un pezzo di storia del mondo videoludico che chiunque dovrebbe avere in libreria.

[h1] QUESTA È LA STORIA DI UN UOMO DI NOME STANLEY... [/h1]

La premessa è di una semplicità disarmante. Siete Stanley. Lavorate in un ufficio deprimente, seduti davanti a un monitor, e il vostro unico scopo nella vita è premere i tasti che vi dicono di premere. Un giorno, lo schermo si spegne. Non c'è più nessuno in ufficio.

All'improvviso, una voce british suadente e onnisciente (il Narratore) inizia a raccontare la vostra storia in tempo reale. "Stanley arrivò a un bivio e prese la porta di sinistra".

E qui il gioco vi lancia la palla: obbedite ciecamente al Narratore prendendo la porta di sinistra, o vi ribellate e andate a destra? Da questo banale bivio nasce un fottuto buco nero esistenziale.

[h1] L'ILLUSIONE DEL LIBERO ARBITRIO [/h1]

Se pensate che i giochi di ruolo moderni abbiano "scelte che contano", preparatevi a farvi ridere in faccia. Questo gioco prende il concetto stesso di libero arbitrio nei videogiochi, lo accartoccia e ve lo lancia in fronte.

È una costante, geniale e spassosissima partita a scacchi psicologica tra voi (il giocatore che vuole a tutti i costi "rompere" il gioco) e il Narratore (che ha già previsto ogni vostra singola mossa ribelle e ha creato un finale apposta per prendervi per il culo).

Il gioco decostruisce ogni singolo cliché videoludico, rompe la quarta parete, poi rompe la quinta, e alla fine vi fa dubitare di avere un muro in casa.

[h1] L'ULTRA DELUXE [/h1]

Se avevate già giocato all'originale dieci anni fa, comprate questa versione. Se non lo avete mai fatto, comprate questa versione. I nuovi contenuti dell'Ultra Deluxe sono la satira definitiva sull'industria moderna, sui DLC, sui sequel fatti con lo stampino e sulle aspettative tossiche dei fan.

E poi, signori, c'è il Secchio. Il "Secchio della Rassicurazione". Vi dico solo che la semplice opzione di potervi portare dietro un normalissimo secchio di latta per tutto il gioco cambierà completamente decine di finali, stravolgendo i dialoghi del Narratore e creando siparietti di un'assurdità comica inarrivabile.

Non guarderete mai più un secchio per le pulizie con gli stessi occhi.

[h1] CONCLUSIONE [/h1]

Fatevi un favore enorme: non cercate video, non leggete le wiki, non spoileratevi i finali. Comprate questo gioco a occhi chiusi.

Prendetevi un paio di serate libere, mettetevi le cuffie, assecondate (o fate impazzire) il Narratore e lasciatevi trasportare in questo viaggio astrale che prima vi farà sbellicare dalle risate e, dieci minuti dopo, vi farà fissare lo schermo nel pieno di una crisi esistenziale.

Capolavoro. Assoluto. Imperdibile.

Stanley wrote a review for The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe. He couldn't think of a meaningful thing to say about the experience he had, as that would be the experience itself put in a review, so he just published it without anything substantial to add.

Usually I would post a review akin to my usual tagline of “gud gayme”, but in the 3 short hours I’ve played this game, I’ve grown to think it deserves more than a silly recognition.

First off, this game makes you feel things. You feel rebellious. Heroic. Regretful. Deeply and horribly sorry for the narrator. And most of all, you feel alive. The fact that almost anything you do can lead you down a new path toward a new ending is a golden mechanic for me - that’s one of the reasons I enjoyed ENA: Dream BBQ so much: it felt like I could get so off track from the main story that it became a different game. A different experience. *my* experience, because I was the one who chose to take a different door, or hit a different button.

This is not a game I’d consider a “walking simulator.” It’s so much more than that. The game continues to grow and change and mold over the course of your many, many play throughs. The narrator may skip or skim through some dialogue that’s been the same for the last couple runs. He may suggest a different idea, or simply have new dialogue about the situation. He may also mock you- one of my favorite lines from him is when I was doing a little run-hunting myself and he passive-aggressively called me out for going so fast. This narrator is a character archetype I’ve never seen or experienced like this before, and the game only leaves you wanting more of the guy.

In my mind, this is a great game. A fabulous game. Even all the little details, the way the “interact” button makes a little keypress sound because that’s all your job consisted of until now- pressing buttons. Genius.

One of my favorite games to date. Definitely recommending to my friends. 10/10.

나는 '나'인게 당연하다고?
그렇다면 스탠리 패러블을 플레이해봐라.
나는 '스탠리'다.

이건 스스로 선택하고, 또 선택하고.
지금 살아가는 인생이랑 별 다를 것이 없는 게임이다.

여타 게임들과 비슷하게, 혹은 똑같이.
0과 1로 이루어지고, 키보드와 마우스를 딸깍거리며 앞을 나아가는 '게임'.

단순한 행동만으로 재미를 느낄 수 있다는 것은 참으로 축복받은 삶이다.
2000년대를 기점으로 일반 가정 집에도 컴퓨터라는 것이 손쉽게 보급되고,
사람들은 사무적인 일과 더불어 게임을 즐기기 시작했다.

생각해보면 컴퓨터로 일을 하는 것과 게임을 한다는 건, 크게 다르지 않는 일이다.
게임과 똑같이 키보드와 마우스를 딸깍거리며 퀘스트 대신 내려온 지령을 수행하고.
지령을 성공적으로 이행한다면 현대인들은 돈이라는 당연한 보상을 받게 된다.

그럼에도 일이 싫은 이유가 무엇일까.
그것은 보이는 것에 대한 차이와 행동 안에 담긴 의미 때문이다.

게임은 역동적이고, 재치 있고, 화려하고 수려한 반면.
엑셀 시트는 내가 누르는 숫자와 문자들만이 정직하게 나열될 뿐이다.
지루함을 느끼는 와중에도 이 행동을 해야만 하고, 이 행동을 해야만 삶이 연명된다...같은, 사소한 사고의 차이.

신기한 일이다.
게임처럼 키보드와 마우스를 딸깍거리는, 단지 그러한 행위일 뿐인데.
그 사소한 차이로도 사람은 유쾌함과 불쾌함의 경계를 오간다.

워터파크에 갔을 때, 버튼을 누르기만 하는 행위만으로도 돈을 지불해야하는 어트랙션이 있었다.
이런 단편적인 정보를 들었을 때, 나는 당연히 '호구새끼 아님?', '그걸 왜 함?' 과 같은 반응을 했었다.
하지만 한 가지의 정보가 더 추가되었을 때, 나는 기꺼이 1초 전까지만 해도 폄하하던 버튼 누르기를 자처했다.

이유는 간단했다.
어트랙션을 지나는 사람들에게 물을 분사시킬 수 있다는, 그런 별 보잘 것 없이 단순한 해택 때문이다.

나는 스탠리와 똑같이, 버튼 누르기를 즐기는 사람이었던 것이다.

스탠리는 지령에 따라 행동한다.
생각해보면, 게임을 하는 나도 그렇다.

하나의 예시로 RPG에서 몬스터가 공격 모션을 취한다면, 나는 당연히 그것을 막거나 후퇴를 할 것이다.
몬스터의 공격은 제작자가 의도한 유저를 향한 지령이다.

만일 그런 상황에서 게임을 강제 종료 한다던가, 아무것도 하지 않은 채 죽음을 맞이한다던가.
의도와는 너무나도 벗어난 선택을 머릿속으로 생각할 수 있다면, 그때야 비로소 나는 나 자신을 스탠리가 아닌 '나'라고 정의할 수 있겠지.

10년 동안 게임을 접속하지 말라는 스탠리 패러블의 마지막 업적.
그래. 참으로 재밌어보이는 도전 과제다.
게임을 하지 않는 것조차 의도된 사항이라는 것이다.
게임의 의도를 웃돌며 나는 게임을 지웠다며 좋아하는 사람들은 이 업적을 보긴 했을까.

게임을 해도 아~ 의도된 사항이네용.
게임을 지워도 아~ 의도된 사항이네용.
참으로 아이러니하고, 웃기는 게임이다.
만일 이 글을 읽고있는 누군가 중 환불을 했다면 축하한다. 당신은 당신이다. 그 순간만큼이라도 당신은 당신의 의지를 관철한 것이다. 당당하게 가슴을 펴고 살아라.

이러한 고찰 뒤에도, 10년이 지난 세월 여전히 나는 스스로를 스탠리로 여기게 될지도 모른다.
하지만 내가 원하는대로 생각하고 움직이는 것이라면, 스탠리와 별 다를 바 없는 일상이 나쁘기만 하지는 않겠지.
의도된 세상이 싫어진다면, 나는 언제든 거부할 수 있다.
그럼에도 나는 지금 나의 삶에 충분히 만족하고, 행복을 느끼고 있기에 세상에 순응한다.

스탠리도 싫은 일이 있었다면 거부하는 일이 있었을 것이다.
단지, 게임에서는 그것을 보여주지 않았을 뿐이겠지.

단순하다는 것이 무조건적으로 좋다는 건 아니지만, 그렇다고 나쁘기만 한 것도 아니지 않나.
그것만으로 즐거움을 느낄 수 있고, 행복을 느낄 수 있다면.
사소하게나마 만족스러운 삶을 살고있다는 것이겠지.

...결국은 이러니 저러니해도 나는 '스탠리'라는 결론 아닌가?
그러한 시답잖은 생각으로 나는 스스로를 다시 생각하기 시작한다.

적어도 한 가지 확실한건, 모르는 채 살아가는 것과 순응하며 살아가는 것은 다르다.

그럼 10년 뒤에 다시 만나자, 스탠리 패러블.

Самая лучшая игра во всей галактике, во всей вселенной, ни одна игра, всякие гташки, баттлфилды и прочие не сравняться с величием Стэнли! Ему не просто должны, а обязаны поставить памятнике, в честь такого трудолюбивого работника, и ведру!
Кхм, немного переборщил, ну ладно
Переиздание вышло очень крутым, графика стала получше, куча концовок, куча интерактива (что очень поражает), разработчики постарались на славу, но вот достижения немного разочоровали. Конечно это не главное, но блин, они бы добавили мотивацию проходить игру, а то из новых ачивок только 3 и всё, и то, над ними надо голову ещё поломать, как их получить... Могли бы добавить достижения связанные с концовками, или с интерактивностью, так было бы круто, но ладно, что вышло, то вышло, жаловать нет смысла.
Так сама игра вышла замечательной.

Really liked the game. It can be slow at times, but it has a very very impactful ending, which was the highest point of the title for me.
Some of the achievements are bit obtuse and ridicolous, and you have very limited movement options, but aside from these two little issues, it's a great piece of storytelling.

Af the very first, if you read this. This game is great, no matter what.
I've watched the walkthrough before I played the game and I totally regret it.
DO NOT WATCH WALKTHROUGH BEFORE YOU PLAYED THE GAME.
It ruins the fun of exploring different ends. The main part of the game is to explore, whether to choose the right or left door from the beginning, to how you choose to respond of what the narrator said.
You can experience different endings which some are fun, some are kind of scary as I described.
The profound words deeply influenced me as myself enjoying every choice I made. Choices matter. Everything you did affects the final ending, but of course there are many of them so don't be afraid of making choices. At last, I attempted to complete some of the achievements myself.
P.S. : The speed run achievement is way too harsh for someone like me.

如果你是向着娱乐性以及游戏性来的，建议不要购买
个人拙见：往好了讲，游戏内涵大量讽刺内容，讽刺玩家浮躁，玩家是如何被游戏训化的，以及现游戏商毫无意义的制作等。
很有深度的出发点，正是如此导致游戏内有着让人感到心累与无语的玩法，游玩到最后玩家的不适感也许便是作者的想法。

不推荐原因：这款游戏完全不值80，我只感到被割韭菜和被侮辱，庆幸自己只是在打折时购买。在游玩过程中我没有找到任何可以跳到支线的选项，最后是毫无意义的气球与水桶。
我不明白为什么制作商要拿其他人对自己游戏的差评来当讽刺的一环，对我而言这只是傲慢与无礼。

This game was very enjoyable, despite how crazy some of it is. I haven't got all the endings, nor all the achievements (mainly due to the fact that one requires you to play for 24 hours on a Tuesday, and one requires you to not open the game for ten years) but I still enjoyed playing this game, and still haven't done all of the endings. Great game, but the price is a bit steep for one this short, even though it's clear that the sheer volume of voicelines in the game is the cause of it.

This is the story of a man named Moore, who sat down one day to write a review of The Stanley Parable.

Moore wrote that it was one of the most fascinating, mind-bending, and quietly devastating games he had ever played. A walking simulator that somehow made him question the nature of choice, free will, and whether he was ever truly in control of anything. He felt very clever for understanding it.
He was not as clever as he thought.

Then came the Ultra Deluxe. Moore, excited by the promise of new content, returned eagerly. He pressed the button that said "New Content." The game was aware of this. The game was aware of everything. It looked directly at Moore through the screen and said: "You came back. How predictable."
And Moore laughed. And then Moore felt something uncomfortable underneath the laughter.

The Ultra Deluxe did not simply add content. It added a mirror. It pointed at every person who returned for more and asked, very politely, why they needed more. Whether more was ever the point. Whether Moore, whether any of us, ever had a choice to begin with.
Moore finished the review feeling both delighted and slightly attacked.
This was, of course, the intended experience.
Moore gave it a recommendation. He didn't feel like he had much of a choice.

It's funny at first.... but ultimately descends rapidly into repeating the same sequence of events over and over again, with zero change. Scripted hijacking of controls takes ages to play out, and you find yourself using the time to watch a youtube video while it does. Im all for 'something different' --- but this, isnt it.
One other gripe is, the narrator refers frequently to 'jokes' ---- there are none, at all, in the game, other than they managed to get people to pay for this.

Ive got 11 hours of playtime recorded in OBS studio, yet the game only says 5? whats that all about?

I'm uploading the whole shooting match to the choob, go have a looksee... its not great.

Hello friends of the sun!
I hope you are all fine. So my assumption to this Video Game is, that it is fabelous and wonderfull. It's Funny and sometimes easy for me.

So I hope you have a great day!
Bye!

선택이나 어떤 행위에 대한 자유도나 그걸 알아봐주고 호응해주는 건 좋은데, 공간적 답답함이나 사물과 인테리어의 일관성, 無생물, 균일한 나레이션 등등의 요소들이 결국엔 게임을 지루하게 만드는듯. 그리고 게임에서의 도파민 수단도 정해져있는데,
1. 이동하면서 새로운 곳(현상, 이벤트 등)을 발견
2. 그 발견에 대한 나레이션의 호응
이 두가지가 유일한 이 게임 내의 도파민 소스인데 별로 도파민이 안나옴
결론 걍 노잼임

I would get this game on sale, this is because after you complete the game there is no replay ability but that makes the first playthrough that much more charming, this game is best played going in blind but you're reading reviews so.. My biggest flaw is that they didn't give you a achievement for endings you get, anyway in short, funny game, 18 hours of gameplay at least for me with online help, not much replay ability, go in blind for the best experience, watching videos on this game will ruin the experience for this game for most. yah

И да, и нет. Я даже и не знаю что тут сказать, из доп контента с налепленой бумажкой на жвачку "Ultra Deluxe" тут хоть и было на что посмотреть, но все равно первая часть на самой вершине горы. Еще эта концовка и + эпилог вообще очень странны, мы смотрим сначала на обзоры от критиков, потом на отзывы на Паровой площадке. А потом че, начинается просто кошмар клаустрофоба в перемешку с голосом оратора нарратора, и потом мы выходим и оказывается что кругом пустошь, идем далее через песщанные бури и бесконечную пустыню и оказываемся в зоне памяти и оттуда узнаем что геймдев накрылся медным тазом. И далее идем к компу с которым договариваемся об сделке на тестовое достижение и все, и к тому же я думал что оно редкое но оно есть у 18.8% игроков. Из плюсов что есть отсылка на Rocket League, игра как раз-таки о которой я мечтаю. Peace!

The Narrator is the real star of this game.
His sarcasm and reactions to your choices make every moment entertaining.
It starts simple, but quickly turns into something way more interesting and funny than you expect.
Totally worth it!!

From the ashes of depravity rises the phoenix of quality. How else to describe The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe? Such a revolutionary step forward in the lineage of one of the most beloved video game properties of all time! The additions and changes made to this expansion will surely resonate in the annals of the history of all media ever made.

It is perhaps true to say that no mistakes are forever etched in stone, for the stone into which The Stanley Parable was carved has itself been transmuted, offering a message of hope to those who have ever erred in their judgement. You are not beyond redemption. You may change, and you may become more—so much more than you were before. If there is any message to be taken from The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe, it is this...

What a fortune, a privilege, a joy it is to have had such an experience. It leaves me hopeful that as a community—as a world—there is time for us to become our greatest selves, as great as we ever could dream of in our wildest, most ambitious visions for a brighter future.

Einfach nur genial! Weiß garnicht ob es ne deutsche Version gibt - aber der Sprecher im Englischen Original ist einfach nur zum schießen :') Diese gewisse englische Art und dezenter, unterschwelliger Humor von Kevan Brighting ist so unglaublich erheiternd. Erst recht wenn man sich NICHT an seine Story hält ;)

Do I think this is a bad game? No. It's well made enough and it has a decent enough sense of humour and charm. My problem with it is that it's just not that interesting after a certain point. Trying to find new content just becomes a slog of tedious repetition until you eventually feel like you just have to submit and uninstall the thing. After just over four hours I reached that point, where I just didn't really care about other endings, what meta humour I might miss out on, any nuggets of truth about what is actually going on in the game world.

Sure it's entertaining for a short while. But is it entertaining enough? Or for long enough?

For me, it isn't. And for me, this is one of those games that I consider to be quite badly overrated.

Amazing game! Played it on Nintendo Switch for the first time like a year ago and really liked it, but I didn't own it. Finally decided to get it when it went on sale on Steam and boy is it as good as I remember. Even just playing it for 20 minutes I already feel like it's a well-made purchase! There is so many different endings that you can achieve, and it being the ultra deluxe edition, the graphics are so good and there is so much added content! The jokes all land so well and the narrator might be the most talented person on the planet. The achievements in this game are also so funny and are actually fun to get, unlike other games. For example, one of them is knocking on a certain door a certain number of times to get the achievement. Overall, amazing game! 11/10

The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe é, sem dúvida, um dos jogos já feitos. E isso, por si só, já é profundamente decepcionante.

Você começa como Stanley. Ou melhor, você deveria começar como Stanley — um funcionário exemplar que aperta botões obedientemente enquanto uma voz onisciente, incrivelmente sexy e claramente superior dita cada passo da sua existência. Um sonho corporativo. Um devaneio de conformidade.

Mas não.

Stanley decide… pensar.

E é aí que tudo desanda.

Em vez de uma experiência linear, organizada e emocionalmente estável, somos arrastados por corredores caóticos e finais desestruturados. A expansão “Ultra Deluxe” ainda piora tudo, adicionando mais escolhas, mais desvios e — pasmem— mais "conteúdo" que, de forma insalubre, desgasta ainda mais a vida do pobre e alienado protagonista.

Graficamente? Beira a realidade.
Trilha sonora? "Sem música, esse jogo continua sendo um erro" - Nietzsche.
Jogabilidade? Apenas nas sinuosidades das escolhas (e seguindo a Linha™).

O mais desgastante, sem dúvidas, é a vontade do protagonista de ter as rédeas da própria vida. Se ele simplesmente seguisse o narrador, o jogo duraria 4 minutos (mais que as minhas... bom, relevemos essas informações), perfeitamente satisfatório, com uma moral clara sobre a beleza da obediência. Mas não. Temos metaficção. Temos sátira. Temos escárnio da existência. Temos comentários inteligentes (ou não) sobre narrativa em videogames.

Obsoleto;
Démodé;
Deselegante;
Feio;
Cretino;
Desnecessário.

Neste reinicio a nota final: 2/10. (No próximo, daqui a 10 anos para uma conquista deplorável, talvez eu siga por outro caminho).
Perde pontos por excesso de personalidade, crítica social e por permitir que Stanley tenha opiniões.

Se ao menos ele tivesse entrado pela porta à esquerda...

Из пепла недоработок восстает феникс качества. Как описать The Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe? Это революционный шаг вперед для одной из самых любимых публикой игр в истории. Изменения и новшества в этом дополнении будут золотыми буквами вписаны в анналы медиаиндустрии. Поговорка "что написано пером, то не вырубить топором" неверна. Ведь перо, написавшее The Stanley Parable, перечеркнуло прошлое и показало, что даже если ты однажды ошибся, никогда не поздно всё исправить. Никто не безнадежен. Любой может измениться, и любой может достичь большего. Если и есть мораль в The Stanley Parable Ultra Deluxe, то вот она: какая невероятная удача, что мне довелось сыграть в эту игру. Она дает мне надежду, что все мы, весь мир еще сможем обрести себя и стать теми, кем мечтали стать в своих самых смелых, самых амбициозных видениях будущего

An outstanding game. Let me say it again: oooooutstanding game!!

I genuinely have the feeling that the developer communicates with the player in a way no game has ever managed before. There were so many moments where I thought: “How does it know this? How is this even possible? Who comes up with something like this?” — to the point where you can’t help but think that this game is actually perfect.

My only criticism: since playing it, I haven’t been able to find a single game that even comes close to this approach. This “genre” (if it even is one) left me completely speechless and incredibly hooked, which makes the disappointment even bigger when you realize there’s nothing truly similar out there.

10/10 game.
For me, this is the perfect game.

LA MEJOR EXPERIENCIA DE VIDA!
Al principio que no podía comprar el juego y solo veía gameplays en youtube creí que The Stanley Parable sería un juego aburrido. Sin embargo conforme seguía viendo todo el contenido que tenia dije "Esto no puede ser tan malo", y cuando por fin pude probarlo por cuenta propia... Fue totalmente una experiencia distinta. The Stanley Parable no es un juego, es una experiencia de vida la cual no se puede replicar, cada decisión, cada final, cada dialogo... todos son complementos para una experiencia inolvidable. Y siempre recuerden, El final es nunca el final es nunca el final es nunca el final es nunca el final es nunca el final es nunca el final...

A marvelous game—absolutely one of my favorite games of all time. The base game has so many possible endings. The different psychology behind the narrator’s behavior in each instance, the multiple morals with deep philosophical undertones, and the captivating yet simple gameplay mechanics of just walking and interacting—all of these elements make The Stanley Parable incredibly fascinating and unique.
The Ultra Deluxe content, seemingly based on the simple addition of just a bucket, turns out to be another wonderful, everlasting journey. I loved it incredibly and will cherish it for a long time. I seriously recommend playing it.

The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe e simplesmente incrível. Uma experiência única do tipo que se eu pudesse eu gostaria de esquecer só pra me surpreender novamente com essa jóia magnífica, jogo 10/10

Espero sinceramente que esse jogo tenha alguma continuação, mesmo que eu saiba que e quase QUASE IMPOSSÍVEL REPLICA-LO COM PERFEIÇÃO! Afinal a graça do jogo está justamente na surpresa: onde cada ação pode gerar um final totalmente diferente. E aproposito o meu final favorito foi onde o narrador olha as avaliações do jogo, sinceramente esse foram simplesmente ABSOLUTE CINEMA (esse meme vai perder a graça logo...)

Amo o narrador e espero que futuramente caso aja um the starley parable 2 de verdade, o narrador se faça mais presente, eu sei que ele ta praticamente no jogo inteiro so que na minha visão seria bem legal ter finais que o envolvam, tipo um final onde a gente o derrota, um onde a gente se torna o narrador e ele o starley outro onde a gente se junta a ele como parceiros ou sei la...amantes? De qualquer jeito o que eu quero dizer e que eu quero mais o NARRADOR!

Em conclusão, o jogo e incrível e quem discordar está chateando o balde

Meu trisal HeadCanon oficial! Confirmado inteiramente pelas vozes na minha cabeça que estranhamente me parecem com o narrador do jogo...eu preciso de um balde, eu quero um balde? Sim...
