Journey - Story Explanation and Analysis

If you haven't played this game yet, please play it before watching this video. It will only take you an hour... an hour and a half maybe... to complete it. I still remember the first time I played it, and all the emotions that welled up in me right before the end credits. Please don't forbid yourself of that possible experience.
I've held off on tackling this game for a while, even though it is one of my favorites. Unlike other games that cry out for you to interpret them, I think this game works so well because it tries to keep its inherent meaning shrouded in mystery. By doing this, it forces the player to project their own life experiences onto the events of Journey, and this results in an experience that is intensely personal to the player.
Nevertheless, I decided to give it a try. Please go easy on me. :)
