You know, I can't really see Cry as a person, his voice is just so amazing, like try and imagine Cry's dad telling him to go do the dishes and him saying 'alright dad' like he does in this video, I can't do it. So due to this I have concluded that Cry is an AI, created by some government research facility trying to create a mimetic hazard that would cause anybody who heard it to be calm and possibly fall asleep, however they were worried that they would never get anything done due to sitting around all day listening to his voice, so they programmed him to also be also be as creepy as possible and read them scary stories so that they wouldn't fall asleep, but cry escaped onto the internet where he made a RUclips channel and became the cry we all know today. Yup, that's exactly how it went down.
+CookieDoughChannel Why wouldn't he, over 60% of the internet is made up of cats. So as an A.I. living in the internet a cat would most definitely be a reasonable pet.
The flower girl. When she saw what happened to the candle girl, she got scared and screamed that she changed her mind, that she did not want to die like that. Nobody gave a shit. _nobody_. I don't know wheter I'm more sad because of what she must have felt or angry at everything.
Now that you mentioned it, yeah...the flower girl is really sweet, too..which is disappointing, because her little stammers of not wanting to go in Mog Chothra's mouth were so innocent..
+Caroqqq I was listening to everyone else talking and I didn't notice. I feel lousy about that. That is really sad. And even though everyone acts like they're looking forward to the whole thing, they're all horrified when the girls get picked, so they don't really like it. But that fear must be why they don't do anything about it. Poor people. They're doing all they think they can. Except maybe that old lady...she seems kind of mean, but that might just be her way of dealing with things.
Cry! You gotta wait for them to cycle through their dialogue before solving the puzzles. If you do, you'll hear some pretty hilarious things. The dialogue is definitely one of the best parts of this game, since they're going for sarcasm and glaring stupidity with Shay's side of the story.
Man, this game sure has one unique opening. Both sides look really promising, but the guy's side intrigues me just because it has a much slower, boring start. That just means it's gonna amp up eventually. Of course, I look forward to learning more about Vella's stuff. Man, that's one morbid ass town. I really wanna find out more about Mog Chothra.
Mild Spoiler(s)? Alert: Personally I thought Vella's side was more interesting so far. Shay's part is interesting but it's different from Vella's in that you don't really learn what purpose he serves in Act 1. There are some references to him being important for some reason, but his personal mission is far more general and vague than Vella's by the end. Hopefully that doesn't spoil anything if you haven't played or seen this game to the end. I'll go ahead and put an alert at the beginning.
This feels like the imagination of a toddler, hence all the toys in the control centre, the cereal and table, the computer mum and dad, and the cute creatures.
"Hold on, I got a mission to let the cat in 'cause he won't shut up." I know it's annoying for cats to interrupt you, but it amuses me so very much, and that was just perfect.
It's sad when the one with the voice of starfire and princess bubblegum (the one in the rose dress) starts to scream "I've changed my mind!" She didn't want to die at the end... D:
This is a very compelling plot. The mechanics seem fairly intuitive, and consistent once you get used to them, and the art style just makes me want to break down and cry... This deserves game of the year just from the first 30 minutes. The female lead is so kickass, and the art is just tops, and it's less scary than games like Bioshock Infinite, because it doesn't predict with horrific accuracy the United States' future.
Throughout the entire thing I was like: "where do I know that boy's voice from!?" And then I was like "OH ITS uh, it's wirt! It's frodo! Um, shit what's his name..... ELIJAH WOOD!"
Every now and then, I come back to this game to watch you play it again. It gives me a feeling of wholeness, of everything being okay. Because the way you interact with the game is just so charming. I've been subscribed to your channel for seven years now, give or take, but I'm not really the kind of person to leave comments or even go watch your streams on twitch and stuff. Sorry about that. I think the only game I watched live was FFXV, which was such a chill ride. Besides that, I've watched pretty much every single one of your let's plays; and it's not that Broken Age is my favorite, but it's always the one I pull up when the nights get a tad bit too long for comfort. We've all had our shit, this ain't about that. I've been digging myself out pretty steadily. Got a job, have picked my studies back up and am acing the classes, I actually have friends now. It's nice. Life's nice. But it's also nice to visit your channel with a blanket and a mug of hot chocolate and my cat. And you're a nice person; really that's all I want to say. Hope everything's good with you.
Since the video started I loved this game! From the way they introduced it, to the art style, the story, the music, the characters!!! I just love everything about this!!!!
i think the boy's parents died when he was a baby, but managed somehow to create that computer with their personalities, like GlaDOS, and maybe thats why the controlls are toy-like and he seems to be almost 100% safe. this thought gave me the chills while watching that part.
(just finished playing the game last night, wakes up to see this) OOOOHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! You're in for a treat Cry. A real treat. And it's not icecream.
This game looks really cool! Love the animation, and the character sounds like it's been voiced by Elijah Wood. Am looking forward to seeing you play more of this mister Cry.
Cry your voice is so soothing it doesnt matter what you say it sounds so nice, like you could be graphically describing a murder scene but it still sound so relaxing
If you haven't recorded all the parts yet, I do have a suggestion for the RUclips playthrough. Do one character's story at a time, and then label which episodes belong to each character. That way, we can tell what story we're about to continue with you.
Game looks cool and promissing, but the girl's part got me screaming at the top of my lungs. How can a family/society, frigging people be ok with sacrificing someone for any reason. I know it's a cliched thing and whatnot, but still. It's kinda infuriating.
MrNinjaskills101 You mean like sacrificing yourself in order to save someone, sure. I'd do it as well. Given the situation. But on this game it seems that they've been living like that for some years now. Imagine if you're a girl on that place, people would tell you that you're possibly going to die so everyone else can go on with their lives. It may seem like a noble cause, and you'd be probably okay with it since you live in that society and all that, but... Bah, it all depends on culture. I see this as inhuman... I guess the game did a good job on this part.
I understand the noble cause thing but you're right, it does seem a bit inhuman. And from what the old lady said, things weren't always like that. The biggest issue I have with it is how brainwashed everyone seems to be about how alright it is.
I just fell in love with the art on how it's done, the main characters are love able. They both have a very odd way of living but they both want to change that. I maybe that weird person that likes these kinds of games instead of shooting with guns and actions and can't be patient to start to play again, I like to play those games but I have more of a connection to story games playing the life of the characters and see where their adventure takes them, listen to back stories and learning more about the game itself. I have patients for that ad I enjoy every bit of it. Can't wait to see more of this game and more seeing their stories and beautiful art. Hey I'm an artist, so I like to look at these kinds of things :P
Holy shit dat outro music.. Loving the whole feeling of this game, it's inticing without being clingy and evokes so many weird thoughts that I didn't know I were in my head xD This is the type of entertainment that keeps people happy and yet not hyperactive
"There was a hug attack" Me: "Oh no... This game i cant. i cant.we're almost done the missions, lets see if something happens" Also girl's side of the story reminds me of "The Lottery." If you are in high school, you should have read a story about farmer who sacrifice one person a year so they will have good crops. The girl's side is just a whole lot more... fantasy-ish lol
These moon/sun thingies remind me of the sun/moon emojis LOL. Btw, nice outro again. Had me thinking the outro music was part of the game, nice job with dat [:
10:03 - The picture on the box of Cinna-Moons was an homage to A Trip to the Moon, a really fun 1902 film about French people going to the moon. The film's on Netflix and people re-mastered the film so that it's in color. The film also had an homage in the movie Hugo. The Smashing Pumpkins' music video of their song "Tonight, Tonight" also references the movie by mimicking the film and doing jump cuts. Cool stuff! I know I was just talking about stuff other than this game but thanks for the Let's Play, Cry! It looks really fun. You have good commentary.
I can't believe this was uploaded in 2014. I feel like it was just yesterday. I remember exactly how I felt and where I was and what I was doing when I watched this. Oh my gosh. I just can't believe this honestly.
I love how unfazed cry was by the talking spoon. "Hello commander shay!" "hello spoon" he didn't even pause
you play some of the most interesting games i've ever seen. i'm always impressed by the amount of variety you have in your gameplay repertoire.
You know, I can't really see Cry as a person, his voice is just so amazing, like try and imagine Cry's dad telling him to go do the dishes and him saying 'alright dad' like he does in this video, I can't do it.
So due to this I have concluded that Cry is an AI, created by some government research facility trying to create a mimetic hazard that would cause anybody who heard it to be calm and possibly fall asleep, however they were worried that they would never get anything done due to sitting around all day listening to his voice, so they programmed him to also be also be as creepy as possible and read them scary stories so that they wouldn't fall asleep, but cry escaped onto the internet where he made a RUclips channel and became the cry we all know today.
Yup, that's exactly how it went down.
Wertsir So true.
The only possible explanation
Wertsir But...but he has a cat!
+CookieDoughChannel Why wouldn't he, over 60% of the internet is made up of cats. So as an A.I. living in the internet a cat would most definitely be a reasonable pet.
Saydee Trammell
But how would an internet A.I. have a cat... Oh wait i know. It is like a tamagotchi cat... I think
The flower girl. When she saw what happened to the candle girl, she got scared and screamed that she changed her mind, that she did not want to die like that. Nobody gave a shit. _nobody_.
I don't know wheter I'm more sad because of what she must have felt or angry at everything.
Jesus I just noticed and it's the third time I watch this .. Damn that's horrible..
Now that you mentioned it, yeah...the flower girl is really sweet, too..which is disappointing, because her little stammers of not wanting to go in Mog Chothra's mouth were so innocent..
+Caroqqq I was listening to everyone else talking and I didn't notice. I feel lousy about that. That is really sad.

Except maybe that old lady...she seems kind of mean, but that might just be her way of dealing with things.
oh god i can't believe i overlooked that... SHE CHANGED HER MIND
they're all... happy for their daughter to be eaten by a monster?... Not even one single goodbye.....?
The art... the style, the colours... I'm having a total artgasm here! XD It looks beautiful!
Looking forward to more of this Cry!
Same here. This is gonna be awesome!
VOICE ACTING AND THE SOUNDS TOO IS AMAZING. (Can't deny and forget Cry's voice, too hehe)
CRY, Thanks for using the Instrumental of our song 'The Manic" . You're WONDERFUL!
Good track!
amazing track indeed
Looks like I've just discovered a new band :)
The guy is voiced by Elijah Wood, for anyone who cares...
I was wondering if it was. The voice sounded familiar.
***** Elijah Wood, an actor (Frodo from LotR for example).
Ah, so it's Spyro's voice too! :D I knew it was awfully familiar...
***** idk the name of the character, but it's the guy Cry chose in the beginning of the video.
Timea Klum Yup. :)
anyone else feel bad that the "dad" is always at night, so the "mom" program spends all the time with Shay
me too i thought no one else did
They are human, you know. They're just using computers to communicate with him, they're still on the bassinostra
her family WANTS her to get eaten..? that's fucked up. her grandpa is awesome though.
I think its more so they dont want anybody to get hurt and are left with no choice but to make light of the situation. That thing is hella scary
Cry! You gotta wait for them to cycle through their dialogue before solving the puzzles. If you do, you'll hear some pretty hilarious things. The dialogue is definitely one of the best parts of this game, since they're going for sarcasm and glaring stupidity with Shay's side of the story.
Elijah Wood's voice is like the most soothing voice I've ever heard...*sighs*
As soothing as Cry's?
Griffin the griffin never
S'what I thought.
Never
WOW HIS VOICE! its like he was born with the voice of WISDOM
Main reason I watch his videos
me too
Sebastian Hooke
i thought i was the only one cx
I think he does it on purpose :/
idk it seems to me its all natural.
Wow, this is not what I was expecting... I'm really looking forward to more!
I love the style, and the story of each "world" each character lives in!
Looking forward to this AWSOME series
The computer is like my mom, if I stayed a baby forever she would have been so happy.
My mom too but I'm a sweet heart!
I'm so looking forward to the rest of this! :D
The music he adds at the end is always awesome
ALL THE CEREAL LOOKS THE SAME OH GOD THE MADNESS
Are you an actor you should be. Your voice is so - I can't even descibe it.
It's sounds so...husky...
I LOVE THE ART STYLE AHHH
80th like
This game is stunning. The colours are beautiful, and the art style- Plus, celebrity voice actors are always really nice. I love it so far.
Man, this game sure has one unique opening. Both sides look really promising, but the guy's side intrigues me just because it has a much slower, boring start. That just means it's gonna amp up eventually. Of course, I look forward to learning more about Vella's stuff. Man, that's one morbid ass town. I really wanna find out more about Mog Chothra.

Hopefully that doesn't spoil anything if you haven't played or seen this game to the end. I'll go ahead and put an alert at the beginning.
I swear that one maiden with the meat is Amethyst from Steven Universe
I was thinking that too!
Oh my god, it is!
i am fucking loving this entire production already.
you just know there'd be easter eggs if you pick "wrong" choices.
i'm sure that's 'a thing.'
Wow, this really reminds me of Dora the Explorer somehow, but in space.
XD This is very true
This feels like the imagination of a toddler, hence all the toys in the control centre, the cereal and table, the computer mum and dad, and the cute creatures.
"Hold on, I got a mission to let the cat in 'cause he won't shut up." I know it's annoying for cats to interrupt you, but it amuses me so very much, and that was just perfect.
Computer: choco rockets?
Cry: uhhh.. I feel like I'm living this again uhh.. no?
Computer: cinna moons?
Cry: ehhh.... bugs?
Computer: Honey Holo-Grahams?
Cry: Oh fuck yeah, sounds good...
So, he was supposed to choose one maiden, but was going to take all 5?
Good point 😃
nah, Mog Chothra chooses whoever he wants (so multiple people if he wanted)
All that happiness at the beginning was just.....disgusting.
It's sad when the one with the voice of starfire and princess bubblegum (the one in the rose dress) starts to scream "I've changed my mind!" She didn't want to die at the end... D:
Seamless ending, Cry. Seemless video cutoff. XD
I love the art style, too. Very textured. :3
14*6=84. she's 84+ years
This is a very compelling plot. The mechanics seem fairly intuitive, and consistent once you get used to them, and the art style just makes me want to break down and cry...

PhoenixPoptart WIRT! FUCK YEAH!
or maybe he is spyro? cuz Elijah Wood voices him to well that wouldn't make sense since Shay is a human
Jaimie Purcell ........Riiigghhttt okay....
Wirt precious baby.
PhoenixPoptart i never realized that his was wirt. THE VOICE IS SO OBVIOUS.
Sir! There's been another Ice cream Avalanche!
We've got 10 chilly toes and at least 3 Tummy aches!
There is something wrong with Grandpa Beastender. His eye-patch is on his right side, but when he turns his head, his eye-patch is on his left side!
I'd say that's a minor issue compared to the rest of the people but I'm sure you know that.
Glad to see you're feeling better, Cry.
What happened to him?
Food poisoning, I believe.
Well, this was pretty interesting, or some kind of unique I'd say. Either way, It's really nice to have you back on channel. ;3 Keep it upppp buddy!
Its nice to see you started new intresting serie mate :)!
well you can record it too pop it can be good
I saw this on steam and knew cry would play it!
the animation in this is awesome :3
Every now and then, I come back to this game to watch you play it again. It gives me a feeling of wholeness, of everything being okay. Because the way you interact with the game is just so charming.

I really think that Shay kid is depressed. He's looks soo bored :3
Since the video started I loved this game! From the way they introduced it, to the art style, the story, the music, the characters!!! I just love everything about this!!!!
i think the boy's parents died when he was a baby, but managed somehow to create that computer with their personalities, like GlaDOS, and maybe thats why the controlls are toy-like and he seems to be almost 100% safe. this thought gave me the chills while watching that part.
Ok, this game is brilliant, tnx cry.
this game is my nightmare. O_o
***** This game is somewhat awesome and hillarious... at least when Cry's playing it.
I don't know about you guys, but I'm really digging this so far. :D
Grumbling gramps is my spirit animal...
HRPHMM
yeah he is the only one who actually seems to be sane and thinks sacrificing innocent girls is wrong
(just finished playing the game last night, wakes up to see this)
OOOOHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! You're in for a treat Cry. A real treat. And it's not icecream.
i seriously LOVE IT whenever you play Amarante at the end of your videos :) such beautiful music
I don't know about anyone else but that bit with the Mog thing was nightmare fuel...
I love that you've started using Amarante music! I love them.
I swear, Cry is an angel in disguise. Only an angel could have such a voice .-. Sorry. Felt like it had to be said.
i kept looking for this
Literally i thought this game and playthrough were just apart of my imagination
This game looks really cool! Love the animation, and the character sounds like it's been voiced by Elijah Wood. Am looking forward to seeing you play more of this mister Cry.
That's because it is Elijah~
Yeah, Shay was.
I loved the game, but I loved even more the outo music! Holy Jesus, now I'm addicted to Amarante. Thanks Cry
Wow, this game is a lot more interesting then I thought it would be.
Wow! I'm loving the story so much! And the artstyle is pretty cool too :D ahah I love gramps !
i love the art style.
Cry your voice is so soothing it doesnt matter what you say it sounds so nice, like you could be graphically describing a murder scene but it still sound so relaxing

omg you have such a good taste in music
This game is plain Beautiful! This reminds me of Adventure Time and a bit of Zim the invader cause the knitt people voices are like Gir's voice :P
this looks like an awesome game so far!! i love the atmosphere, characters, and the music. nice pick cry
this game seems pretty interesting and has a very good story line so far
Cry.. I have to say. You play the best ending music after each episode you make. creds man.
...What an interesting, odd game.
I like it :)
I love how his voice (Cry) is so calming when I heard it I instantly subbed
this looks awesome i can't wait for more
This game is such a masterpiece as it combines sci fi (even if feigned) and natural. The art is amazing and the story is unique
Also Frodo is in it
That ending fell so good together
I like watching Cry's videos. His voice kinda brings it together, and it's really peaceful.
Game looks cool and promissing, but the girl's part got me screaming at the top of my lungs. How can a family/society, frigging people be ok with sacrificing someone for any reason. I know it's a cliched thing and whatnot, but still. It's kinda infuriating.
Screaming at a video game? Are you serious?
I can a number of reasons to sacrifice someone or to be the one sacrificed. Of course not for religious reasons because thats stupid.
MrNinjaskills101
You mean like sacrificing yourself in order to save someone, sure. I'd do it as well. Given the situation.
But on this game it seems that they've been living like that for some years now. Imagine if you're a girl on that place, people would tell you that you're possibly going to die so everyone else can go on with their lives. It may seem like a noble cause, and you'd be probably okay with it since you live in that society and all that, but...
Bah, it all depends on culture. I see this as inhuman... I guess the game did a good job on this part.
marcelluiz96 Figure of speech.
I understand the noble cause thing but you're right, it does seem a bit inhuman. And from what the old lady said, things weren't always like that. The biggest issue I have with it is how brainwashed everyone seems to be about how alright it is.
Man I absolutely love this game's art direction and whacky uniqueness.
UGH CRY COME ON.
so im obviously more interested in the girl than space boy, but im wondering what will happen in his story!
He graduates spoon academy and trades his training spoon for a real spoon.
Eric Tuchfarber lol XD
I just fell in love with the art on how it's done, the main characters are love able. They both have a very odd way of living but they both want to change that. I maybe that weird person that likes these kinds of games instead of shooting with guns and actions and can't be patient to start to play again, I like to play those games but I have more of a connection to story games playing the life of the characters and see where their adventure takes them, listen to back stories and learning more about the game itself. I have patients for that ad I enjoy every bit of it. Can't wait to see more of this game and more seeing their stories and beautiful art. Hey I'm an artist, so I like to look at these kinds of things :P
Every time someone said mog, all I could think of was moogles...
Mean while I was thinking Kog Maw... xD
Kupo?
Kupo!
Kupopo! *Nods* *Coughs* Sorry, sorry. I still miss my break dancing moogle.
the way you cut the ending music in the video is just pure genius!
this game is gorgeous amazing graphics and design
Holy shit dat outro music..
Loving the whole feeling of this game, it's inticing without being clingy and evokes so many weird thoughts that I didn't know I were in my head xD
This is the type of entertainment that keeps people happy and yet not hyperactive
And the only one I would miss would be gramps.
I like it so far! And I have to say, the outro music you used was beautiful.
Cry, on the boy's storyline, when youre doing the train wreck, click on the bridge guy again so the train falls
Stunning graphics, amazing voice acting. and to top it off your commentary. Best. Video. Eveeeer.
"There was a hug attack"
Me: "Oh no... This game i cant. i cant.we're almost done the missions, lets see if something happens"
Also girl's side of the story reminds me of "The Lottery." If you are in high school, you should have read a story about farmer who sacrifice one person a year so they will have good crops. The girl's side is just a whole lot more... fantasy-ish lol
Last time watching these videos before I never watch cry again....
sad but glad to get it done and never look at it again
I have a feeling that this is gonna get real dark real soon.
Same here
I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS GOD DAMN GAME FOR 3-4 YEARS HOLY SHIT, I LOVE YOU CRY
the song at the end just fitted too well
Sir Cry, I love the ending song so much. It fits soooooo well with the game.
Throwing a magical talking spoon will always wake up a mountain x3
So many famous VAs in this game! And the art is gorgeous!
These moon/sun thingies remind me of the sun/moon emojis LOL. Btw, nice outro again. Had me thinking the outro music was part of the game, nice job with dat [:
It looks amazing! I'm really happy you show me that game.
And music... I fell in love with it.
The actress playing as the sun sounds familiar
Its po from kungfu panda !!😄
10:03 - The picture on the box of Cinna-Moons was an homage to A Trip to the Moon, a really fun 1902 film about French people going to the moon. The film's on Netflix and people re-mastered the film so that it's in color. The film also had an homage in the movie Hugo. The Smashing Pumpkins' music video of their song "Tonight, Tonight" also references the movie by mimicking the film and doing jump cuts. Cool stuff! I know I was just talking about stuff other than this game but thanks for the Let's Play, Cry! It looks really fun. You have good commentary.
It went from PlayHouse Disney to...... something else....
I can't believe this was uploaded in 2014. I feel like it was just yesterday. I remember exactly how I felt and where I was and what I was doing when I watched this. Oh my gosh. I just can't believe this honestly.
