I just finished playing this yesterday, this game simultaneously soothes you, offers an existential crisis, and then brings a level of catharsis I didn't expect at all.
This entire game's energy is 'wandering through a really obscure art gallery, getting lost, ending up in some art form of the back rooms, getting un lost, and then continuing to look at art'
My cat just lost her mind at 34:46 when the duck starts squeaking. She popped up from a dead sleep and is currently pawing at the monitor trying to get at the duck.
"If you see your parents, immediately punch them in the face and run away." "Ok, if I see my dad I will punch him. That makes sense because he would be a zombie." Mark, I'm sorry for your loss but that's the funniest shit I've ever heard
Because he knows the secrets exist, but he doesn't care to go after them. He does not know if the game will break if he duplicates the doors enough. Mark goes after that which is not known to him, because the mystery is a much more intriguing pursuit than the facts.
i love the scary part of the game because of exactly what you said; “nothing terrifies me more then my own mind.” they didn’t show us anything inherently scary, just gave us ideas and let our brains fill in the blanks. just another clever way to add to the whole theme of the game.
Like the bean juice. They let us fill in the blanks like, oh is that blood? And the chess piece. The top of it looks like a person's head. That bit got me.
fun fact: the four objects from inception that they used to know if they were in a dream are in this game, the dice with the pawn that always lands on top, the toll that keeps spinning, the golden bishop that falls very slowly and the casino chip that clones itself
57:15 If you do the developer commentary they tell you that the voice actor for Dr. Glenn Pierce actually did this in a full take with no editing, they were full ready to splice the words after a normal take but didn't need to because he actually said it the way displayed in game. Major respect to that voice actor.
Oh wait, like he did the part with the words out of order. I guess that is more difficult to deliver well and recall your lines but it didn’t even occur to me they may have just had him say things normally and then edit it! That’s neat
I’ve come back and watched this video 8 times, this is my comfort video. I love this place, this game, and no matter where I am, this calms me. It’s familiar, and safe. Thank y’all, Mark, the commenters, all of you. Wish y’all well, God bless.
@Lee Saddleback I see that your profile pic is the Doom Slayer. Do you want mark to play the DLC as much as I do?😩 (Even though he did criticise it a lot towards the end it was still a good series I.M.O)
pretty sure mark playing this game normally equates to breaking the game in most first-person games. this (not sponsored at all) exceptional game really performs to mark's destructiveness.
Mark struggling with the red apple stair room comforted me. I, also, tried to snake them around the fan. That room took me 20 minutes and I finally gave up and looked it up
Gawd, they nailed that sense of unnerving, comforting familiarity with liminal spaces. I like how when you reach areas of the map that don’t feel right the music stops, and it just leaves you with the faint sound of fluorescent lights and ventilation. I love being in those spaces if I want to left alone or put into situations of transition where it isn’t rushed, but merely suggested, like when your shift is done, but nothing is really going on later at your house or anything. The concept of liminal spaces is very interesting and mysterious and I sometimes seek it out just to give myself a different perspective of the world, even if it’s just for a few minutes. Awesome game

y'know..markiplier vids really truly hit the spot when you watch them around the last 3 months of the year, in the evening, and when the vid is at least 50+ minutes long and at least a year old.

6:14 Upon closer inspection of the alarm clocks in game, I found a cool Easter egg. The numbers 4, 8, 15, 16, 23, and 42, can be found on 6 different alarm clocks going left to right. (In this frame you can see 8, 15, 23, and 42). This is a reference to the show Lost. Pretty nifty I would say

Damn wow didn’t see that but it is strong, you grow , get more in control, come to realise that you need to approach problems that were impossible to solve under many perspectives

2nd best achievement only to "Get A Life" from one of markipliers falling/flying guy game. "Achievement! Get a- DONT TELL ME TO GET A LIFE, YOU GET A LIFE!"
Every time markiplier mentions Unus Annus when he sees white and black, there's gonna be that group of people who have no clue what he is talking about.
what I absolutely love about this game is that it's the type of game that humbles the player, because as soon as you THINK you know what's going on, no you don't.
@@wilburlookslikewaldo-2309 I know it's not easy. I hope you have a good support system to help you out in those moments. Nobody should have to deal with that shit alone. I'm gearing up to see a therapist first time, I'm pretty sure I have ADHD... and I'm an adult. Take care of yourself, ok?
this has quickly become one of my favorite games of all time. it’s a fun play that manages to subvert every expectation and ends with a beautiful message
When I was typing it, I can just imagine Unus or Annus appearing just out of nowhere in the game just saying that as the unus annus theme start playing
Well, I mean, think about it right? Unus Annus gets deleted, where do they go? Unus Annus now only appears in a person's head as memories and Superliminal takes place in the mind of a person in a dream state. And within the dream state, anything can happen. So, in the dream state, the mind could make the world in black and white and have Unus and Annus appear within the dream state. I have no idea what I said there
I went into this game completely blind, and cried at the end. I still play it every now and then, if I'm feeling sort of stuck in life, or like I've lost control of things. It's wonderful.
yes, i absolutely love how the message at the end of the game is just so insightful, impactful, real and meaningful in a game that felt so bizarre and unreal.
it did mean a lot to me to read that message at the end, and it told me something that i needed to know; that every problem has a solution and you just need a different perspective. i was looking for a comment like this
“Hello! My name is Dr. Glenn Pierce, and many years ago, I had a dream. I found myself in a place where I understood that each of us begins as nothing. Where everything I perceived was shaped by seeing it exactly the way I wanted to. Whitespace. But in Whitespace, I also faced the greatest challenge I could imagine: Because with a lifetime of life itself behind me - and all of the weight that it carried... I realized that seeing things the way I wanted to was not as easy as it used to be. You’re well beyond dreaming now, and further out than anyone has ever come back from, but we hope that you won’t get discouraged. After all: If this is a place of pure perspective, isn’t it also a place where a different point of view could make anything possible? Isn’t that why you came here? Hello my name is Dr. Glenn Pierce, and by now you may have realized that all of this has happened exactly the way it was supposed to. You see, everyone who comes to the Institute does so because they feel that they are no longer in control of something important to them. But, more often than not, the problem is not that the problems we face can’t be solved: The problem is that we become so afraid of failure that we refuse to see our problems from a new perspective. And so we do the same things again and again and again. And therein, of course, we find exactly the failure we were looking for. Your life will always be a struggle and you will always have problems. But today, you had the chance to see things differently. Even though it meant facing obstacles that seemed impossible at first, you thought outside the box - and you overcame them. Because you saw things from every angle, you understand them for what they really were. Because you kept moving forward, no matter how far off the path you were told you were headed, or how unexpected it became... You found your way. In a few minutes, you’ll be back in the real world, and some part of you will say that none of this was real: So how could it have meant anything? But - just like the power of perspective itself - it will have been as real as you believed it to be. All you’ve got to do is Wake Up.
i'vr found that this is a very pleasant video to fall asleep to! calm music, no action or sudden chaos, and just overall relaxing vibes. combine that with how much more chill mark has gotten over the years and viola! the perfect lets-play to sleep to :D
At 17:30 Mark just playing with the sound of the piano music is just the most wholesome thing, and I love that it cuts out so you know he was doing it for a lot longer it was just cut down for us lol
Markiplier: “This game will blow your mind!” Me: *1 hour and 37 minutes of motion sickness later* “My mind is so blown that you also tricked my stomach into thinking I’m dying.”
@@MichelleBelle1776 I had to pause then resume towards the last third of the video because I was getting to the point of motion sickness. The doorways especially were a source of eye hurting dizziness.
they had to implement non-euclidian planes of existence, it basically teleports you when you go above a certain part on the map, and makes the items pop in magically, really cool stuff you can find good information about here on youtube
there was a scraped game called F-Stop that was supposed to be portal 2, you had a camera and would take pictures of cubes and use the pictures to place those cubes on the buttons
Thats because this is inspired around F-Stop, the scrapped version of Portal 2, in which you take a photo of objects to make them bigger, smaller or in locations where they would normally not be such as doors
My 2 favorite phrases from portal 1 and 2 The cake is a lie. And YOU'RE THE MORON THEY BUILT TO MAKE ME AN IDIOT!! Don't ask about the last one, I just like it.
All this talk about people being “true fans of markiplier” got me thinking of just how far along mark has come. Very proud of him, very nice Edit: I’m glad my comment became a place for people to reminisce about the markimoo of the past
Ahh yes over an hour long with many correct, incorrect and confusing choices mixed in with fear of losing your mind with a sprinkle of not being able to comprehend what's happening in real time.
this game is a perfect example of what i like to call a "one night experience", a game that you only play once but one that will stick with you for a long time and always hold a special place in your soul and memory. i like this game.
What I love about this game is it is incredibly well made. I don't understand coding, but I understand that this can't have been easy to make. I would say what I think the game's message is, but I think it summarizes all of it nicely in the end. I especially love how you go back through all the scenarios you were in as you wake up. And while even this game wasn't Mark proof, not many games are so I'd rate it a solid 10/10.
I love how when it all started falling apart, Mark kept accidentally stumbling into the developer's intended path like "oh woah, okay, guess we're going here now"
I just love how Marks voice can be smooth as butter when he wants to, and then you have the times when he surprised or acting silly and it’s just like this man’s voice is crazy.😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅

what I absolutely love about this game is that it's the type of game that humbles the player, because as soon as you THINK you know what's going on, no you don't.

"Nothing terrifies me more, than my own mind."
I felt that.
my mind makes me have nightmares and it's scary >:(
This game was made by someone's Mind
The minds of these devs must be terrifying
As someone who doesn't have control of some regular intrusive thoughts and is very afraid of what I could do on violent impulse, I felt it, too.

Mark is tapping into his unknown ASMR potential now.
He used all his yearly Markymoo on Unus Annus. He'll recharge for next year. 👀
this has quickly become one of my favorite games of all time. it’s a fun play that manages to subvert every expectation and ends with a beautiful message
"This dice is too big. This dice is too small. This dice is just right" Says mark all the while using the exact same dice.

Mark: "it's very Unus Annus in here"
Annus: "Welcome to the world of Unus Annus, Mark."
I read that as Ethan speaking!
I READ THAT IN THE VOICE
When I was typing it, I can just imagine Unus or Annus appearing just out of nowhere in the game just saying that as the unus annus theme start playing
Don't you mean welcome back?
Well, I mean, think about it right? Unus Annus gets deleted, where do they go? Unus Annus now only appears in a person's head as memories and Superliminal takes place in the mind of a person in a dream state. And within the dream state, anything can happen. So, in the dream state, the mind could make the world in black and white and have Unus and Annus appear within the dream state.
I have no idea what I said there
I went into this game completely blind, and cried at the end. I still play it every now and then, if I'm feeling sort of stuck in life, or like I've lost control of things. It's wonderful.
Can we just take a moment to appreciate how on point Lixian is at all times during his editing?

Yes
Lixian is AMAZEBALLZ at his job... Those animated pokes at mark gets me everytime.
I love how silly this game started, and then it became an important life lesson, which was, as Mark said, profound
yes, i absolutely love how the message at the end of the game is just so insightful, impactful, real and meaningful in a game that felt so bizarre and unreal.
it did mean a lot to me to read that message at the end, and it told me something that i needed to know; that every problem has a solution and you just need a different perspective. i was looking for a comment like this

Fall asleep to this nearly every night. That special little “hi” at the beginning instantly makes me tired
“Hello! My name is Dr. Glenn Pierce, and many years ago, I had a dream. I found myself in a place where I understood that each of us begins as nothing. Where everything I perceived was shaped by seeing it exactly the way I wanted to. Whitespace. But in Whitespace, I also faced the greatest challenge I could imagine: Because with a lifetime of life itself behind me - and all of the weight that it carried... I realized that seeing things the way I wanted to was not as easy as it used to be. You’re well beyond dreaming now, and further out than anyone has ever come back from, but we hope that you won’t get discouraged. After all: If this is a place of pure perspective, isn’t it also a place where a different point of view could make anything possible? Isn’t that why you came here? Hello my name is Dr. Glenn Pierce, and by now you may have realized that all of this has happened exactly the way it was supposed to. You see, everyone who comes to the Institute does so because they feel that they are no longer in control of something important to them. But, more often than not, the problem is not that the problems we face can’t be solved: The problem is that we become so afraid of failure that we refuse to see our problems from a new perspective. And so we do the same things again and again and again. And therein, of course, we find exactly the failure we were looking for. Your life will always be a struggle and you will always have problems. But today, you had the chance to see things differently. Even though it meant facing obstacles that seemed impossible at first, you thought outside the box - and you overcame them. Because you saw things from every angle, you understand them for what they really were. Because you kept moving forward, no matter how far off the path you were told you were headed, or how unexpected it became... You found your way. In a few minutes, you’ll be back in the real world, and some part of you will say that none of this was real: So how could it have meant anything? But - just like the power of perspective itself - it will have been as real as you believed it to be. All you’ve got to do is Wake Up.

I had a stroke trying to figure out how the developer coded this game.
The Teleports and the scaling of objects is so
crazy!
they had to implement non-euclidian planes of existence, it basically teleports you when you go above a certain part on the map, and makes the items pop in magically, really cool stuff you can find good information about here on youtube
@@rexyaxy4314 It may also implements non-euclidian physics engines and ray tracers.
Me too buddy. Me too.

Markiplier: doodle bob sounds
Funnily enough it wasnt there originally because Uberhaxornova managed to jump up there
23:54 for those curious
Omg your right
This whole game sounds like something that Aperture Science would try.
True
there was a scraped game called F-Stop that was supposed to be portal 2, you had a camera and would take pictures of cubes and use the pictures to place those cubes on the buttons
Thats because this is inspired around F-Stop, the scrapped version of Portal 2, in which you take a photo of objects to make them bigger, smaller or in locations where they would normally not be such as doors
My 2 favorite phrases from portal 1 and 2
The cake is a lie.

Chapter 4 - Blackout
What I love about this game is it is incredibly well made. I don't understand coding, but I understand that this can't have been easy to make. I would say what I think the game's message is, but I think it summarizes all of it nicely in the end. I especially love how you go back through all the scenarios you were in as you wake up. And while even this game wasn't Mark proof, not many games are so I'd rate it a solid 10/10.
I love how when it all started falling apart, Mark kept accidentally stumbling into the developer's intended path like "oh woah, okay, guess we're going here now"
