the only ones I know are Dear Esther (walking simulator with a rich story), Firewatch (another masterpiece honestly), Tacoma (it is from the same developers as Gone Home), Life is Strange and its prequel Before The Storm (idk, it kind of has the same vibe), and Everybody's Gone To The Rapture. I recommend you discover the lore of all these videogames by yourself. Another great walking simulator would be The Stanley Parable, though it has nothing to do with Gone Home.
Every once in a while I come back here. Her voice, their story... There is something about this game that soothes me to moon and back. It just make me feel.... I don't know. It makes me feel things I can't even put into words. This game is something else. Thanks for putting all these audiologs together. Now I can cry whenever I want lmao.
Yeah, between the house being a mess, the complete absence of life, the red-stained bathtub, and Lonnie’s phone messages trying to find Sam, it really seems like something bad went down. Hell, if you don’t find "I Said Yes", then it comes across as if you’re going to find Sam’s body in the attic with a bottle of sleeping pills.
FR! When I started playing, I was so scared because the sounds the house makes (?) While you walk in it are so weird + the rain and storms But after I heard everything and ended the game, I just cried like a baby bc aa It's such a pretty but kinda sad story :(
So this is one of the things that triggered the gators... A cute love story that adresses issues a lot of LGBT people have to face. It's thanks to those things that you can see who the real fragiles and censors are. Seriously, I get that some people don't like "walking simulators" and that's perfectly fine, but most people I've seen complaining about Gone Home were talking about "lGbT pRoPaGaNdA". Do these people even know what propaganda is ? Then again, they're probably the same kind of people who use terms like "feminazi" unironically. So uh yeah, really nice story ! I'm not gay, but since I'm an ebul SJW I always appreciate positive LGBT messages.
I just got this game from Epic Games as a gift during the Covid-19 pandemic. Having played Life is Strange before, I knew that this was a game of similar emotional content. However I had no idea what I was in store for. I love the storyline and I literally cried. Lonnie and Sam remind me so much of Max and Chloe from Life is Strange. The romantic twist is something I did not expect at all
I’m so glad people still care about and see the amazing beauty this game is it doesn’t matter if your gay or straight male or female (as im a straight male opposite of Sam but ofc it doesn’t matter) this game will stick with me forever it has helped me thru so much …this one little game
I remember a few months ago I played this for the first time, late at night. My tired mind just got sucked into it, as though I really was transported into this house from 1995. I felt like I grew up with this family, and that I lived there too. One of the few games to take me out of my own shoes and into ones of a stranger. I'm really glad I played it...and replayed it over and over until I discovered every secret. Sam's voice, the writings between everyone, everything just made me feel any one of them would walk in any minute. That game messed with my head and leaves me feeling empty at the end every time, in a good way. It helped reinvigorate my desire to write, even going so far as to writing my own fanfic of the game from Katie's point of view, also in letter form. I haven't felt this way about a game since maybe Silent Hill 2 or Earthbound. I love this game.
I really thank you for this beautiful edit! Played the games twice and sometimes - like right now - I am in the mood for the journal - without actually playing the entire game. So you helped a lot! Thanks again...
the last few entries always sends me to tears, on one hand i wish there was closure for sam and katie reconnecting but at the same time idk if the game would as well as it does. i swear you could do an entire broadsword video essay about the game
I’m a straight guy. Playing this and listening to it makes me think, “who am I?” I know that’s weird. You know, I’m someone that’s suppose to hate gay people apparently. I’m already told I do by many people. But honestly, I don’t. I have had people I cared about. People I loved. And sometimes it didn’t work out, sometimes the world and who we were spilt us apart. It’s something we all want. I’m not even sure I’ll get that in my life. Maybe I’m not a huge fan of myself. I don’t know. But we all want that with someone. I don’t know if I’ll get that, I have a preference, but if someone finds that with someone they care about, it doesn’t really matter who it is.
6:25 glad I’m not the only person that had experienced this weird emotion. At a loss of words to a point of wanting to just cry. Almost like feeling lost and confused to the point where your brain can’t decide what your feeling, and defaults to sadness.
Nope, The Song is called: "Complicated" by Heavens To Betsy, it was released on March 1st, 1994. I quote: "Since Gone Home is set in 1995, and focused on the travails of a teenage girl in the Pacific Northwest, we knew we wanted to get authentic Riot Grrrl music into the game. So we worked with Kill Rock Stars to license tracks from a couple of the most groundbreaking Riot Grrrl bands of the time: Heavens to Betsy and Bratmobile. The sound is lo-fi and emotional, just the right soundtrack for this episode in the life of Sam Greenbriar." [...] "Heavens to Betsy was the first band fronted by Corin Tucker, who would go on to form Sleater-Kinney in the mid-’90s. Their sound is more aggressive and raw, though some tracks, like Complicated, are also a bit mournful:" [...] "The role of the licensed music in Gone Home is to emphasize a sense of place, both geographically and temporally- it is as much a part of the game’s setting as the house you explore and the notes you read. But the music you’ll spend the most time with in the game is the original score. Chris’s music plays ambiently as you explore the house, but he also created a custom track for each and every audio diary in the game, giving each voice sequence its own unique feel." fullbright.company/2013/08/14/the-music-of-gone-home/ The fact that we thought that this was made explicitly for the game shows how well of a job they've done in selecting them.

I took my time when playing this game. Leaving no stone unturned, reading everything. Took me over 3 hours and somehow I only got 18/24 journals in spite of my efforts lol As to the heart of the story, can't say I'm much of a cryer, but I came close. Excellent voice acting and storytelling. Normay, I find it hard to care but Sam got to me even without appearing, and I'm a grown man.
@@babbisp1 Nah, I just added them today. The sound bite has been cut out now, there was a part where you could hear the next audio log playing for a split second.
@@IndieDenma Oh so you did make use of my comment. Good to know! Also, interesting that you managed to retroactively edit your video after having uploaded it on RUclips.
The journal entry at the end on the table is a sorry note to explain why she left. You'll find it at the end of the game, tho it actually was written at first, every note you find in game is out of this book. Everything is okay dude, it's a happy end ♥
This game has helped me through a lot of things going on in my life and sort of related to me with Sam’s parents and her relationship with Lonnie it’s just a beautiful game and I love the story. Thank you for this ❤️
The story was the best thing in this game. Especially the voice acting. God, there are so many feelings coming through. And the soundtrack was another story. I really enjoyed these 19 mins. Kinda wished a sequel to this game... Thank you.
You and me both. I actually tweeted at the twitter account for this game, but they said there were no plans to "extend the narrative." See, I feel that the ending, while happy in some regard, didn't have much closure. Was Kait gonna go after her sister? Will she stay at home? Will she confront her parents? Damnit, I wanna know what happens next! But alas, we only have our interpretations. I'd love to see...something from the devs of this game. Maybe not a sequel, but at least a story or short movie or something to show what happens next. I guess that's another reason why this game continues to tear me up inside.
@@xboxboy93941 If I was to write a sequel to this game (a total fantasy) I'd set it several years later, perhaps with the sisters in their 30s or 40s, and have Sam exploring Katie's empty house - perhaps house-sitting while she's away? We could find out what happened to each sister and their parents since the first game through environmental clues and audio logs in much the same way. It would be great to learn about Katie's story at a different point in their lives - she was the 'white sheep' to Sam's 'black sheep' but I'm sure she has her own issues, and I'm sure a lot would have changed in a decade or so. It would be great to explore deeper and have more of a sense of closure with this family's story...
Super late on this one as I recently played and cleared this game for the first time, and god what a rollercoaster. What started off as curiosity as to what happened turned into sympathy for Sam as I read more and more journals and notes, slowing turning to joy at the sudden blossoming of love between the two of them and then to heartbreak at Sam's realization of Lonnie going off to the Army, and then to brief joy at the prospect of them running away to...uncertainty at what lies ahead, both for the couple, the parents with dealing with the loss of their daughter, and lastly...Katie...how does she process all of this? What will she do? We never find out.
I'm probably gonna go cry happy tears now. This story is absolutely gorgeous! I didn't feel like going through and finding all of the pieces to the journal, so thanks for making this video. I feel like the developers should make a "side note" or extra secret or something saying whether or not Sam found her and if Katie ever gets to see her sister again. Anywho, what a powerful story!
I literally listen to this all the time! The game is pretty old by now but it's really nice to listen to before bed or whenever really. It always make me cry, I love it😁
Every once in a while I come back to this and emotion floods through me. Nothing has brought me to tears more than this story has. There something magical and hopeful and honest about this story that gut punches mr every time... I love it
I'm confused. Sam said Lonnie didn't go to basic training but there is a picture of Lonnie in uniform looking like she graduated!? did anyone find that picture as well?
I really enjoyed this game. I'm straight guy, but I found the story very relatable in a general sense. Everyone's experience is unique, but there's a lot of shared themes. Also, I loved the riot grrrl music, brought back so many memories.

"Looked in the mirror".
Yeah, right, as if there's a single mirror in this whole freakin' game.
+Todd Dawson-Cooper Isnt there a blurry grey one in the bathroom with the red dye?
+IndieDenma Nvm, there is not ^^
Todd Dawson-Cooper Oh shit, good point.
When Sam ran away to get Lonnie, she took all of the mirrors in the house with her.
@@xboxboy93941 that’s the only explanation
"Very long phase" part hits hard... easily most memorable part of the entire story, at least to me
There’s Gone Home : The Horror story

this story is gorgeous
but sad
I actually cried in the last few journal entries, and I rarely cry at anything.
if you cry at bc of this,, ´you must cry all the time

What started off as curiosity as to what happened turned into sympathy for Sam as I read more and more journals and notes, slowing turning to joy at the sudden blossoming of love between the two of them and then to heartbreak at Sam's realization of Lonnie going off to the Army, and then to brief joy at the prospect of them running away to...uncertainty at what lies ahead, both for the couple, the parents with dealing with the loss of their daughter, and lastly...Katie...how does she process all of this? What will she do? We never find out.

"I've known since like, She Ra."
This aged well.
I love this story so so much....just love it!! I can't stop playing this game and hear the awesome love story between Lonnie and Sam
the unseen story of the dad and uncle is very messed up.
Trinity Maynard yeah thats right
lilylil I will buy part 2 STRAIGHT AWAY
Yes dude, good job. Thank you for trashing the rain away and mix voice / music properly. What a game guys...
+Alommed Thanks, and yeah its a great experience, I even cried a bit at the end!
I thought this was a horror game type but i was shocked to see that its a great game
I'm probably gonna go cry happy tears now. This story is absolutely gorgeous! I didn't feel like going through and finding all of the pieces to the journal, so thanks for making this video. I feel like the developers should make a "side note" or extra secret or something saying whether or not Sam found her and if Katie ever gets to see her sister again. Anywho, what a powerful story!
This game was the first thing to make me question my own sexuality lmao
this hit me in the feels
I missed both the entries about Daniel LMAO
I literally listen to this all the time! The game is pretty old by now but it's really nice to listen to before bed or whenever really. It always make me cry, I love it😁
Every once in a while I come back to this and emotion floods through me. Nothing has brought me to tears more than this story has. There something magical and hopeful and honest about this story that gut punches mr every time... I love it
I'm confused. Sam said Lonnie didn't go to basic training but there is a picture of Lonnie in uniform looking like she graduated!? did anyone find that picture as well?
Yep, but this pic isn't from basic training, it's from school.
jrotc uniforms look identical to the real thing
I really enjoyed this game. I'm straight guy, but I found the story very relatable in a general sense. Everyone's experience is unique, but there's a lot of shared themes. Also, I loved the riot grrrl music, brought back so many memories.
Thank you for this🌲
