      @@Diorm Commonly in English French words are used as an intense counterpart to what they translate to in English. So for example, there’s Black, and then there’s Noir, which hits different in English and conveys a darker dark than “black” does, if that makes any sense.
      In this case, Ennui is used to describe a depressing lifeless boredom, whereas using boredom in English to mean depressing lifeless boredom wouldn’t hit as hard because it already describes regular boredom.

    I think the sad people represent the stages or aspects of depression.
    The demons and lies that depressed people have to deal with. Notice how each person is alone and cold, they have such distaste for each other because they can't face the ugliness they represent. Like the guitar guy represents self-loafing and how he hates himself. The green dude on the keyboard is projection of that self-loafing and his own flaws onto others. The dude on the mouse was the part of him that tries to run from his demons using crass humor. They all paint a picture of a depressed introvert who's afraid of the outside world, but they all showed tiny shards of a little thing called hope. the all seemed to realize the error of their mindsets, like the guitar man who realized that if he truly hated himself he wouldn't care enough to write a song about himself.
    I think this game is all about a single man reflecting on his depression and coming to an decision, that's what the camera in the window represents, self examination.
    In the end I think he comes to an realization: he's that cause of his own depression, these aspects of himself that reject each other, that are alone, need to come together and accept each other, as he needs to accept them as part of himself.
    "when I woke up, I was still tired, but I had to start the day..."
    I think that could be interpreted in many ways, but I think it means he realized that enough is enough, its time for him to stop his self-loafing and accept these aspects of himself and turn over a new leaf, that it's time for him to face the day and begin living and enjoying life.
    TL;DR A depressed man/woman takes some to to reflect and gets through his/her depression by accepting the facets of him/herself and coming to terms with them. They then decide to turn over a new leaf and start enjoying life.

By accepting these parts of himself, sad photographer leveled up in maturity and self confidence, and he was promoted to not so sad photographer. Perhaps with some love and friendship he will one day become happy photographer.

    The game is about a person going through troubling times. Each... Person is a reference to a part of their inner self. The person deals with it by dreaming of tiny people who feel the same as him. But awakes to find them gone. Most likely depression as stated by the one on the door handle. They makes them tiny to represent how big they think their problems are but actually they are a huge threat represented by the end of the game. The "void" refers to their inner self (I think). They also state things that happened to them in the past. I'm young and I'm making possible theories so don't judge but that's what I think so bye :)

    • @MHRolley
      @MHRolley 10 лет назад +8

      I agree with you up to the last two lines. Perhaps "the void" is in fact real life or the outside world, making the room inside the person's mind. The camera at the end is somehow the person waking up to realize that they are actually taking pictures to look into their own mind through dreaming. Personally, i believe these problems are what face people when they realize and truly try to grasp what reality is about and i admit myself echoing the thoughts of these tiny people. I think that is what makes this game so powerful and relatable. Either way, the ability of the creator to first realize these thoughts, and to then be able to effectively show them in his chosen media is genius.

One that says none of this matters because it's human nature. We just gotta endure and carry on until we find something better. The last thing humans have in their nature, is Hope.

    I believe that the void is actually a reference to the French term 'l'appel du vide' which translates to 'the call of the void.' It is the urge to jump from high places, and it seems to have no cause or cure.
    These characters are so realistic, you actually feel for them even though they don't have faces and are multi-coloured or whatever. It's crazy how much good dialogue can do for a game.

    This. This is why I love Markiplier. He plays games that no one else does. He doesn't do things purely for views. There was no shooting, no jumpscares and very little humor in this video, but I still loved it. I would have never even heard of this game without him. Thanks for the great content mark.
    Keep it up, you are becoming the best on RUclips.

    @hxhxhgfd 11 лет назад +42

    This game seems to have a rather deep meaning (At least in my interpretation.) Think about it.... foc/us..... it spells focus, but the "us" is separated, so focus on us. Those little people could represent a small piece of all of us. Jealousy, worries, anger, hatred, the desire to be accepted, squashed by the immensity of everyday problems, hanging onto dear life by a thread, grasping for the light as everything seems to pass us by, eventually slipping and falling into the void (death). Sad? Perhaps.... but remember that these people are tiny. Does this mean that we're tiny in relation to life's problems? Maybe... or it means that these are only tiny parts of us; parts that we can overcome. In the wise words of Benny: "But who are you?"

      Ben Gordon I don't believe it's actually from an anime, I think it's a drawing someone made of their roleplay character or something.

    That was really deep. A man goes about his flat, scrutinizing the different facets and insecurities of his life and personality, then after seeing it all he is face with the fear of having them scrutinized by others, and it makes him very small. For someone who's had to struggle with manic-depression in the past, this game speaks volumes (if you can technically call it a game).

    • @laurahope6644
      @laurahope6644 11 лет назад +1

      I was thinking that, I suffer depression and thought the game covers all the doubts that you have and the fear of others scrutinizing you, I think some of the characters were also the defense mechanisms that are put in place to make people believe you are ok.

  • @NickLifts
    @NickLifts 11 лет назад +16

    Maybe.
    Maybe they're you. Each and every one of them is the "tiny part of your life" where you fell to sadness, desperation, anxiety, anger, or loneliness. But it is only when we go back and "focus" on these things is when we are brought down into our own "void". I'm sure alot of us can relate to this, and to me, I think this game was made to make us realize we shouldn't spend time looking back knowing there is too much out there to miss.

    I think this game was supposed to show that all our problems are actually small compared to the rest of the world. If you focus too much on your problems, you lose sight of how big and wonderful the world is, and forget that there are people who care enough to - as it were - FOCUS their attention and listen to you.

      I agree that this would have been much better as an animation. I can see what the creator was aiming for though. In an animation you can only observe, in a game you can choose. He also probably wanted the user to have fun looking for them. Still, I liked the idea and would love to see it turned into a story/animation.
