Braid - Full Ending

SPOILERS. Duh. If you have not played Braid before, do yourself a favor and a) close this video and b) buy the game now.

If you have played the game, be sure to watch this in HD. It looks pretty damn good. =]

This vid shows the last stage of the entire game and all of the text (including the hidden paragraphs) of the epilogue... plus a little look at the full constellation as it appears with all 8 stars collected.

I like how I get through the castle pretty much without rewinding until a basic 'jump up platforms and avoid the piranha plant' portion, lol.

I uploaded this basically to test codecs/HD video in order to see how it looks on YT. Captured in Fraps and encoded in VirtualDub.

It was mindfuck for me when I realised princess was actually trying to get away from us.

I pooped myself when I saw that the final level is composed of traps set by the princess. Simply amazing storytelling.

@rubberduckey111 Well, I must say I'm not disappointed anymore. =) You're right. It's unfortunate for me that I couldn't play the game before seeing this... Because it just means I couldn't get the whole world and idea of the game turned upside down in front of me, while I'm truly being sucked into it. ;P

But, i've been playing games a lot, and seeing this ending did surprise me. =) Knowing about this also makes me truly WANT this game: I have so much respect for the idea.

@Platykwak i beleave that the idea of making and initial decision of what you want, or what you think to be right, is in fact being wrong, is EXACTLY what the game was displaying.

in seeing spoilers before playing the game, you partook in what the game was trying to tell us. Now, you can see first-hand exactly why this game displayed this theme because you basically just experianced it.

i dont know if that mind fucked you at all, but i hope it helps.

This is a video game. Not C.O.D. This is a real game. Simply brilliant. I cannot name one aspect that is lacking in this game. Everything is excellent and exceeds my expectations of a game by FAR, from music to message. The gameplay is flawless. A masterpiece in its finest.

hahahah man super cool 

[cloudlocke]

Gotta admit, I totally didn't get that the princess was running from me. The whole time I was just like "WTF??"

[jordplunk]

Raiden, what's going on?? Raiden?? Raiden?! (sorry, saw the fission mailed and couldn't resist.)

[Platykwak]

I'm sad. =( The ending was already spoiled for me through other videos, so I just watched all this. And I've never played it..

And knowing that I can't be mindfucked by this or surprised, if I ever decide to play... *cries*

I WISH that I could rewind or do something to forget this.

Not possible, because this was so damn beautiful. =(
