I've been a gamer for over 30 years. Played and beat hundreds of them. This one will stick out and always be close to my heart. The creators did a phenomenal job. And thank you so much for a beautiful game and story.
i think it's really clever how each stage of the game is meant to symbolize each stage of grief. This game is so so amazing and deserves way more credit than it's been given.
I don't understand why this game is getting hate. it's beautiful. the music, the visuals, the mystery, the game play! I love it all. shame on those internet trolls!
thedarkestdawn1 he is getting hate because this company doesn't have a good reputation and so releasing something beautiful suddenly got people suspicious and just assumed that he was faking the visuals in the trailer to the point where they won't even play the game before calling it garbage.
I'm really impressed with how this game managed to convey such a clear story without words. I managed to tell around half way through that the story was about the boy 'passing on', trying to work his way up the tower to the light at the end. But around three quarters through, it became clear that it's also a story about grief. About loving and losing and loving again. And I really felt that.
I got the patience trophy because I was walking in that dammed hallway for 2 minutes thinking I'd get somewhere😂 i got a ultra rare trophy because i was an idiot.
My thoughts on this game (SPOILERS) - - - I think the "boy" was the father all along, and the entire journey symbolized his journey through the stages of grief. The reason he started out as the boy was because in his mind, he'd rather he had been the one to die in the accident instead of his son, which is why we see the seemingly misdirecting scene at the beginning: it was his denial that started this whole journey. The world is seemingly beautiful and perfect, but there is always that nagging feeling of wrongness, symbolized by the red hooded figure he is always chasing, but can never quite reach. Gradually, anger sets in and the world is a desolate, scorched land plagued by monsters. We also begin to see the dark creatures that symbolize depression and grief. The giant bird represents our psyche that actively tries to fight back and continue our state of denial but as we pull out the stops and let the grief run free (the smoke), this opposing force weakens until we are able to face the fact that something bad has happened. In the bargaining stage, the dark creatures become hostile but the boy can seemingly fight back against them using the light orbs and the robots, and for a while it seems that the boy could win. That he could change the world back into the sunny place it used to be. But then we see the last of the robots sacrifice itself to open a door into more gloom and darkness, and you see the boy finally break down. The last stage is pretty obviously grief and depression. Instead of lighting torches, you proceed by extinguishing them. There is no light, and the dark creatures leave you be because you are clearly not a threat anymore. As the last of your hope dies (the fox), you stop feeling and become numb (stone). Life feels pointless, you've screamed so much you've lost your voice and you literally become a shadow of yourself. In the last stage, the boy fights to open up the flood gates and let the light back into the world, and finally the truth is revealed and relived. The "boy" walks towards the corridor and confronts himself (as the father). He chooses to accept his fate and leaps into the void. The father then gets up and goes to his son's room for the first time in a long time. All the locks the boy opened through out the game culminates in the final, physical act of unlocking the door into the room. Finally, he lets go.
PositiveSarcasm this is the best explanation of this game. I understood the end but I didn't put the whole game together till I read your post. I also recommend watching the alternate ending. When the father goes into his sons room, a fox is on the bed and a robot is hanging in the window. It shows that the father/boy was remembering all these things during the game play
Journey was brilliant. But it didn't get a strong response from me. But Rime really hit me hard. I love the beautiful scenery, and mysterious, surreal environments. And the ending really had me choking.
Just finished this game. I’m still crying, hard. I miss my grandma whom passed away almost 4 years ago, in a few days it will mark the 4th year. I still miss her, this game helps me remember to just let go. I love her and can miss her, but I cannot change anything. This was such a wonderful and beautiful game, so emotional.
Did u all hear of how the game maker cried for 2 days after reading the horrible comments on the internet? He even said he wasn't going to make the game if he knew how mean people were. Honestly, this game is awesome and F people. F them hard.
This game is amazing, but when you put something out for the world, you have to be able to handle criticism. There is always someone who is never going to like you, no matter how good you are.
Its true, criticism is important if you want to get better and think outside the box a lil bit more, but its not all about that. Many people would of been discouraged to paint,compose music and do all kinds of creative things because people told them how bad they were, how its not a good idea and how they should give up. Not all criticism is good, and sometimes even the good one is meh. For example, everyone told my mom not to study to be a musician, not to sing, not to create music (all her life) and she didn't listen to them. Now she is famous and many people love her songs. Most of the critics were just eating her alive, for like no reason. I've seen that with movies as well. People HATING some movies when they come out, later on changing their minds and actually loving them. I agree with you however, not everyone can enjoy everything and that's the lesson we need to learn here. Critics don't always know whats best however. People told the airplane makers it was a dumb idea too, but hey.. look at us now.. flying to every corner on the planet.
We cannot always base games on happy endings...Thats why I love Indie games, they showed us a wonderful adventure without any words and still made us realize beautiful moments of this journey full of emotions.. And since I could read the Spanish credits I see that this was inspired by a lot of people that left and stayed trough the making of the game, cried so much too!! So gorgeous, loved it!!! Mis agradecimientos a toda la equipo que ha echo este juego una maravillosa viaje para muchos, Gracias!!!
This game was amazing. In all my life I've never cried so much at a game or even a film. The beauty of this game is that it slowly lets you unfold the intricacies of the story for yourself. It was the puzzles, artwork and sense of adventure that gripped me first. As it progressed the mystery and wonder took over and I was just in love. Then it broke my heart. It ripped me into pieces. 10/10.
This game is probably the most beautiful game I’ve ever played! I seriously have never cried for a single game but this, this hit hard. Great job developers. Honestly, F*** the people who hated on this game!
I just got done playing this game, and the ending hit me hard. I cried. WOW! This game is so simplistic and yet so layered all at once. Beautiful design, too.
the first part is my study ASMR. when I got tired of studying I just look up my screen and it relaxes me. thank you so much! this video and this game are life-saving.
I had no idea of what the game was actually about until the last cutscene in the room. It was a shock for me. The whole perspective of the game changed. It was very heavy in emotions. I can only recommend
Downloaded this on a whim off of PS plus because it was free. Thank whatever celestial or holy force may or may not be up above that led me to that decision. This is one of the most beautiful games I have ever played. Amazing cinematography, mesmerizing soundtrack and a story & theme that hits you in the feels like a truck. The only other game that has made me cry at the ending is The Last Guardian which I highly recommend. There so much I can say about this game .. but honestly you have to play it for yourself. RiME is not a game .. it’s an experience.
i don’t know if anyone’s said this yet but there’s a grave you can visit at the start of the game. it’s in the area with the red trees that you fill with water to get to the key. if you get into the water and swim down there’s a little passage you can go through where you can find some flowers, a gravestone, and a torch on the wall. i don’t think you get anything for finding it. when i found it on my first playthrough i thought i get could something by lighting the torch, but the boy just cried instead. i remember spending a good ten minutes in there, just trying to process everything and letting the boy cry.
This game sort of reminds me of The Last Guardian, and Shadow of the Colossus. The boy can climb and interact with the environment and looks to be all alone with his pet. Is in mythical world of magic and danger. The shadows are like the shadow people in Shadow of the Colossus. Big bird reminds me of the Colossi. Big robot friends remind me of Trico. Bitter sweet ending + plot twist.
This game is a beautiful piece of art. The ending had me near tears. I'm really surprised that nobody has talked about this amazing game. I replay it a lot.
So cute and lovely. Everything is beautiful, the characters, the scenarios, the lights, the shadows, the colors, the story, the sounds and the music, everything. It's like to watch a movie, and even better because it's interactive. Absolute masterwork, the best game ever
This game makes me feel sad and depressed, yet I would recommend it 10/10 to everyone, it's so fucking important. Beautiful. Soothing and heartbreaking at the same time.
I don't knoe if it is just for me... but i played this game a long time ago and now, when i watch this it just brings up such good memories. It's an absolutely amazing game...one of the best out there. Idk, watching this now, just gives me goosebumps
This game is litteraly a work of art, the music, the story, the visuals, the emotions all on point! Only thing that was a bit less was the performance on PC tbh
I end up crying in the ending, I know what's like loosing the closes thing you love the most! I lost my dad a year right now on May 5th, it's sad and terrible
This game was incredibly breathtaking, and stunning graphics into the 3D era. RiME came out for PlayStation 4, Nintendo Switch, Steam and Xbox One in 2017 and was developed by Tequila Works, and published by Six Foot and Greybox Software. The music was so dramatic, often times family-friendly.
just completed this game and for me it was an honour to have played through such a beautifully made game 😃 no words yet told a story with so much emotion ❤ well worth the money i paid for it and thank you for the walk through on this game very much appreciated as i did have to refer to your video on ocations on solving one or 2 puzzles
I thought this game was going to be a fun easy going game with a light story, by the looks of the trailer anyway. Little did I know that I would become so emotionally invested as the story priced together. I was not thinking by the trailer that I’d be sitting in my room at midnight fighting tears and loosing the battle. What a wonderful game it’s been a while since I had a good cry. I loved and will continue to live this game. Thank you
Jonah Gray It is. I played the game myself and at the end you can go into "Stage Select" and the stages are (in order) "Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression, and Acceptance"
I just finished playing this, and I must say one thing. This made me cry so hard, I couldn't stop crying. Ya ik that sounds fricking stupid but 4real. And when I already thought I survived, I saw the naming of the stages. And it made me cry even more, and there is this theory I can't take either. If the boy really was the one who died, this is all in his MIND. And it's just so sad, and when his dad threw the little red cape part in the wind, it was so awful. Now everyone who sees this comment are going to think for sure that I'm stupid, and that thing is not a theory, but the most likely way it to be. Just wanted to share this idk why xd. Yeah thank u and bye. ps the game was so so beautiful and so so so good, I should play it asap again.. :))
Only here to see maybe a minute or two of what the game is about, ended up staying for three and a half hours! Mesmerizing and visually stunning. Watching is one thing, playing it probably going to frustrate the hell out of me. The game looks difficult at times.
This game is soooooo good! The soundtrack is soothing, the design is so well done & I love all the color, & the story as a whole is just, ahh, I have no words, just tears. I beat the game in one sitting because I couldn't stop playing. Bravo to the creator 👏 Will definitely play it again in the future!
I have so many thoughts about this game. All are different. But one that sticks with me after playing the game is this one. It’s about the bond between the father and the son. And the son’s spirit finding the father/finding out he is dead, and to accept and say goodbye. And it’s all because of the ending. So let me explain. You begin as the boy and you play as him through all the stages. You have this journey to go to the end and find and lose friends, but you do you’re best and keep going. The stages reflect the fathers grief and while you traverse trough them, you help hem cope. At the end you have reached you’re father, since you helped him cope in your spirit form. He’s found the strength to finally go to your room. And you have reached your final destination. You appear in your spirit form and you and you’re dad get a final goodbye and he’s able to let go. Ps. This game is amazing and every different meaning anyone can think of in this game is still so powerful and emotional to me. Played this in February but came back after losing someone a few weeks back. It’s a big help when it comes to letting go. Even though I don’t always feel like playing it myself. Even thinking about it gives a lot of strength. It’s like overpowering my own emotions trough playing this game. Crying when it got sad. But being able to let it go and end that chapter of my life. It’s really that powerful
2:12:42 I don't get what one can do here. There's the item in the grotto, but the demons respawn too quickly. I blew up the orb and almost made it, but then died. Any pointers? In the scene at the time code, there's a ledge to the left that can be climbed and one walks through the respawns. Edit: okay, just needed a bit more patience. Just continued on playing.
I think the father actually died but in the end, the old men is actually the kid wich has aged and the game is all a big flashback. In the end of the game, he enters the room that has a toy with that tall legs thingy, because he must let go of the memories, thats why he lets the wind take the red thing. And the fox must be his dead dad that helps him thru his journey. Anyway, it was a great game. 💌
This game is quite surprising, I did not expect this ending. It does use your emotions very well, there are suspense, drama and those lovely moments. It left me very sad after. To be honest, I played till the end but the last achievement to let go, I don't think I did let go in real life. I followed the game and did not get all the extras. I liked the graphics, music and story, but this type of game always make my eyes hurt because of moving the camera too much, the truth is that I am so sensitive that I really got motion sick sometimes, but still I kept playing, hahaha.
on question: I have a Core i7 4th gen; GT 860 nvidia; 2ram dedicated; 12ram; 1tb+8SSDHD and can run the game only in High, can´t run it in Ultra with 1080p and 60fps. Which specs do you use?
My brother recently died... and stupid as it sounds, this helped me through the grieving part... I love this game for that reason
Hope you feel better!
My heart is with you...
Hugs.
I’m sorry, I hope you feel better...
Your brother is always there in your heart.
May he give you the courage to move forward in your life. Hugs
I've been a gamer for over 30 years. Played and beat hundreds of them. This one will stick out and always be close to my heart. The creators did a phenomenal job. And thank you so much for a beautiful game and story.
@@JohnSmith-XYZ What about this is a diversity game? I'm intrigued?
@@JohnSmith-XYZ What does that even mean?
@@ilovesparky13 I'm guessing it's because the main character is dark skinned
play arise a simple story!
@@twistedcherrypop I did! Good game, but it didn't stick with me like Rime did.
i think it's really clever how each stage of the game is meant to symbolize each stage of grief. This game is so so amazing and deserves way more credit than it's been given.
I would have appreciated something showing that early on. It would have engaged me better with the game, and I would not have stopped playing.
I don't understand why this game is getting hate. it's beautiful. the music, the visuals, the mystery, the game play! I love it all. shame on those internet trolls!
The reality is that almost any piece of work that gets a reasonable amount of notoriety is going to have haters. Best thing is to just ignore them.
thedarkestdawn1 he is getting hate because this company doesn't have a good reputation and so releasing something beautiful suddenly got people suspicious and just assumed that he was faking the visuals in the trailer to the point where they won't even play the game before calling it garbage.
Dragon Butts I see. but honestly it's beautiful. You're chasing the truth in an innocent way. I appreciate what was done here
because neogaf

I cried when he lost the fox like he lost to much
Nice pfp... also I didn't know...Thank you for sharing your experience I'm playing it rn and I feel that right now
I feel that hard af
totally agree :'(
I got the patience trophy because I was walking in that dammed hallway for 2 minutes thinking I'd get somewhere😂 i got a ultra rare trophy because i was an idiot.
Kimberly Voss what hallway?
Eventually I turned to go back because I was going nowhere. And when I looked back again the entrance was right there
What entrance lmao
I assume you are referring to this hallway? 1:54:05
Thank you for telling me how to get that one. Now I just need to actually get it.

I agree
😶...oh gods 😰😰😰
PositiveSarcasm but is it worth £30
PositiveSarcasm
how will i read all this
This is the first game to make me cry in a long time (journey was the first). Looking forward to seeing more games like this one.
Same, I cried at least three times.
The ending had me literal bawling.
Journey is a masterpiece, a work of art!
Journey was brilliant. But it didn't get a strong response from me.
But Rime really hit me hard.
I love the beautiful scenery, and mysterious, surreal environments.
And the ending really had me choking.
I haven't finished Rime yet, but you should check out Ico too. This game so far reminds me a lot of Ico.
Just finished it. And yes, on the verge of crying myself.
Just finished this game. I’m still crying, hard. I miss my grandma whom passed away almost 4 years ago, in a few days it will mark the 4th year. I still miss her, this game helps me remember to just let go. I love her and can miss her, but I cannot change anything. This was such a wonderful and beautiful game, so emotional.

Daniela Dani if only the vast majority of gamers around the globe think like you do, the indie industry would be so much better.
the spanish credits are because this game was developed in spain.

Just a tip, increase the brightness, makes it much easier in dark places.
This game is pure poetry!!!

The freaking power of the " AAAs " XD
One of the best games I´ve ever played. First Time I´ve realised, whats this game about, my heart was hurting so much!
i don’t know if anyone’s said this yet but there’s a grave you can visit at the start of the game. it’s in the area with the red trees that you fill with water to get to the key. if you get into the water and swim down there’s a little passage you can go through where you can find some flowers, a gravestone, and a torch on the wall. i don’t think you get anything for finding it. when i found it on my first playthrough i thought i get could something by lighting the torch, but the boy just cried instead. i remember spending a good ten minutes in there, just trying to process everything and letting the boy cry.
There's some kind of award for that. Something like "a good final resting place". It was the first thing I got, actually.
Thank you, I couldn’t have done it without your video!
I just completed it, and I must say. It was one of the best games I've ever played!
do you know what the movable box thing is at 15:05. ive finished the game but idk what that part was for
@@LittleLillypad it's for that puzzle he just did the heck lol
I watched this cause I couldn’t figure out some parts
same
When I didn't know what to do I watched a bit then did it myself
Same, I got stuck on the part of 1:27:14
This game sort of reminds me of The Last Guardian, and Shadow of the Colossus. The boy can climb and interact with the environment and looks to be all alone with his pet. Is in mythical world of magic and danger. The shadows are like the shadow people in Shadow of the Colossus. Big bird reminds me of the Colossi. Big robot friends remind me of Trico.

Just got this for free with PS+ And I fucking love it (Wouldnt know how to do alot of stuff without this video tho)
I played this years ago, and listening to the boy sing still hits hard
No game has ever captivated me as much as this one...❤
This game is litteraly a work of art, the music, the story, the visuals, the emotions all on point! Only thing that was a bit less was the performance on PC tbh
Oh my God!
The ending was so sad!
Every gamer should play this game at least once...... Very beautiful and heart breaking.
This game is the only game made me tear up. The most saddest part for me was when the robot turned into the door and the kid tried to stop it
*breathes in* _my tears will feed the developer's soul_
I didn’t realise someone else wrote this comment for 5 seconds
Foxes are one of if not the cutest creatures on earth.
I end up crying in the ending, I know what's like loosing the closes thing you love the most! I lost my dad a year right now on May 5th, it's sad and terrible
The tears, I can't fight them back. This is a beautiful game.

really reminds me of journey, it amazed me, moved me, then finally trampled on my heart and make me cry
Wow, it's almost like the stages of grief...Truly heartbreaking towards the end...

The boy was the father going through his grief
This game make me cry as Brothers A Tale of Two Sons ;(... awesome.
This was probably the saddest shit I ever played, how do they expect people to play if their eyes are constantly blurred out by tears. 😭
When the thing died to get us through that door 😭😭 I was sobbing
I just finished playing this, and I must say one thing. This made me cry so hard, I couldn't stop crying. Ya ik that sounds fricking stupid but 4real. And when I already thought I survived, I saw the naming of the stages. And it made me cry even more, and there is this theory I can't take either. If the boy really was the one who died, this is all in his MIND. And it's just so sad, and when his dad threw the little red cape part in the wind, it was so awful. Now everyone who sees this comment are going to think for sure that I'm stupid, and that thing is not a theory, but the most likely way it to be. Just wanted to share this idk why xd.
Yeah thank u and bye.
ps the game was so so beautiful and so so so good, I should play it asap again.. :))
no need to feel dumb or stupid, this is one game that comes at some time and brings back the feelings that other games just destroy. take care !
I'm a huge fan of The Talos Principle and I didn't think anything could come close atmospherically. RiME hits the spot. It's fun, but thoughtful too.
So emotional. This stays with you long after you've finished it.
Thank you so much for this - I was so stuck getting off the big pillar and down to the tree and now I know how to progress! :-)
No one realizes how much work goes making a story like this it takes hours to get it perfect
hours ??? you meant to say months or years ..
I literally cries at the end
It is an awesome, phantastic and beautiful game. Sometimes with tears in my eyes. No more words......
Who made this music? *thumbs up*
Lucy Heartfeelmeah Lindsey Sterling created some of the music
How did you see in the fucking dark. I might need to order in night vision goggles.
Only here to see maybe a minute or two of what the game is about, ended up staying for three and a half hours! Mesmerizing and visually stunning. Watching is one thing, playing it probably going to frustrate the hell out of me. The game looks difficult at times.
What? Where are all these RPGs coming from!? A man needs a list.
I got this game free on ps plus amazing game!
I'm on the part where I've just escaped the dragon and I'm back in the tower and it's all forestry and stuff. How close am I to finishing?
Preston2cool 2/3 game
this game is AMAZING. I'm going into the massive tower on chapter one and so far i'm loving the non violent content
This game is a lot like the last guardian but instead of having a giant cat dog bird with you, you just have this little fox friend
This game is amazing. It`s the most saddest game but also the most beautiful.
This is my favourite thing on this planet.
This game is soooooo good! The soundtrack is soothing, the design is so well done & I love all the color, & the story as a whole is just, ahh, I have no words, just tears. I beat the game in one sitting because I couldn't stop playing. Bravo to the creator 👏 Will definitely play it again in the future!
First game ever to make me cry everything about this game was just wonderful
1:14:02 do you have to collect both keys separately or can you collect both before heading back?
What song plays at 1:56? I can’t find it on the soundtrack. That whispy flute is amazing!
My tears.
2:37:31 I love that sound
Thank you a million for helping me through the difficult parts!
I seriously need more games like this. Any similar ones?
@Solid Snake Thanks! But, i saw the trailers to this and none look like Rime.
I have so many thoughts about this game. All are different. But one that sticks with me after playing the game is this one. It’s about the bond between the father and the son. And the son’s spirit finding the father/finding out he is dead, and to accept and say goodbye. And it’s all because of the ending. So let me explain. You begin as the boy and you play as him through all the stages. You have this journey to go to the end and find and lose friends, but you do you’re best and keep going. The stages reflect the fathers grief and while you traverse trough them, you help hem cope. At the end you have reached you’re father, since you helped him cope in your spirit form. He’s found the strength to finally go to your room. And you have reached your final destination. You appear in your spirit form and you and you’re dad get a final goodbye and he’s able to let go.
Ps. This game is amazing and every different meaning anyone can think of in this game is still so powerful and emotional to me. Played this in February but came back after losing someone a few weeks back. It’s a big help when it comes to letting go. Even though I don’t always feel like playing it myself. Even thinking about it gives a lot of strength. It’s like overpowering my own emotions trough playing this game. Crying when it got sad. But being able to let it go and end that chapter of my life. It’s really that powerful
2:12:42 I don't get what one can do here. There's the item in the grotto, but the demons respawn too quickly. I blew up the orb and almost made it, but then died. Any pointers?
In the scene at the time code, there's a ledge to the left that can be climbed and one walks through the respawns.
Edit: okay, just needed a bit more patience. Just continued on playing.
Maybe try exploding the orb while running, that way you Can get a bit more time, and Rolling (press Swift while running) Can make you a bit faster!
Omygosh this game was so fun! The depth and feel and music was everything it's a masterpiece! And the end litterly broke my heart..
I still have no idea why people hate this game
Game Pass gem. Playing this to hold me over until Ghost of Tsushima. Didn’t expect to love this but I do.
Finally that gaping hole between Journey and Zelda that saddenned my sould is closed
I love this game.
when I played this game on the PS4 I was reminded of The Last Guardian
Yeah, this just tore my heart out by the end and started sinking its teeth into my heart, and chewed it up....
Can someone explain the story? I'm at the part where the giant bird is trying to get me (I'm a lil stuck lol)
Hate that bird.
Even though I have solved the middle door puzzle (1:48:06) I don't find the artifact at 1:48:23 is glowing, so I can't collect it. Is this a bug?
I think the father actually died but in the end, the old men is actually the kid wich has aged and the game is all a big flashback. In the end of the game, he enters the room that has a toy with that tall legs thingy, because he must let go of the memories, thats why he lets the wind take the red thing. And the fox must be his dead dad that helps him thru his journey. Anyway, it was a great game. 💌
hi, someone now the name of the music at 2:21 ? tell me pls ;-;
please tell me also...its so damn lossless beautiful music
This game is quite surprising, I did not expect this ending. It does use your emotions very well, there are suspense, drama and those lovely moments. It left me very sad after. To be honest, I played till the end but the last achievement to let go, I don't think I did let go in real life. I followed the game and did not get all the extras. I liked the graphics, music and story, but this type of game always make my eyes hurt because of moving the camera too much, the truth is that I am so sensitive that I really got motion sick sometimes, but still I kept playing, hahaha.
I love how the shadows animated a well and not just a shadow if you know what I mean
My nephews love this game, everything about it is just amazing.
the door wont happen at 12:00 HELP!!
on question: I have a Core i7 4th gen; GT 860 nvidia; 2ram dedicated; 12ram; 1tb+8SSDHD and can run the game only in High, can´t run it in Ultra with 1080p and 60fps. Which specs do you use?
