Top Comments of this video!! :3
There was this player that I will remember forever, so I wanted to revisit the game because I hadnāt played for a month. I was at the broken bridge and I saw a person sitting down alone so I came up to him and started to communicate with him, he communicated back. ( I had the white robe) So I decided to show him where the secrets were around the game and he would always be behind my back. But at the end when we were at the top of the mountain, he started to draw hearts on the snow, at first glance I didnāt recognise what he was doing but then later realised that he was saying a goodbye and thank you to me. So I decided to draw a heart on the snow, then he drew his heart and linked his to mine. After a few minutes saying goodbye, we walked into the light.

The person who introduced me to this game did so without telling me what to expect, so when I met another person in the game I thought it was an NPC! We danced, hid from the monsters together, kept each other alive in the sandstorm, and they showed me things I wouldn't have found otherwise. I grew dependent on them, missed them when we were separated, danced in circles and chriped to each other when we reunited, and cried when we died together after such a long walk. It was a cathartic experience, and I gave a lot more of myself than I would have if I would have known it was another person, but when I found out it was a human I was with, I was so moved. I still think about it when things get really dark and I don't want to continue anymore. I think about that person and their amazing soul, and I can go on. Amazing that this can happen because of a game. <3

i traveled almost the whole game with a stranger that, really, i became friends with. we would often stop and wait for each other, 'call out' to each other, and make sure we were both safe. at the end, just before we went into the light, we stopped, and drew hearts in the sand for each other. ive never spoken to them but i feel like they were a good friend

Playing this game made me a better person. The last part of the game made me realize life was like that. No one knows when their time will come; who will still be with them the next morning. After playing I've left my room and tried actually getting a life. Since finishing this game, I've improved my relationship with my grandma, learnt to keep away from negative people, and made actual RL friends. This game is a piece of art.

I thought the other was just AI. No lie. I'm seeing all these people saying that it was another player, and it's blowing my mind. They were the greatest guide and would always wait for me to catch up, even helping me by showing me what to do. It was amazing before I knew it was another player, let alone knowing that it was. I'll never forget it.

I remember having a Journey with a stranger and we always waited for each other. Everytime we somehow lost the other we spammed the "noise" button really fast to signal for the other to wait or look out. It was our way for communicating, truly amazing how we understood each other with only movement, noises and jumps.
SPOILER However at the snowy area where those weird aggressive beings are I was almost spotted by a light, so my buddy ran into the light to sacrifice himself and got hit REALLY far away, I'ver never seen that before and I simply couldn't find him. To not make his sacrifice for nothing I simply ran forward until my character collapsed in the snow. I was so upset that I had to do the beautiful "Paradise" level part on my own and when I finally made it up the mountain I looked back a last time.
But what was that? I saw a little noise bubble when I looked down, very very far away. I didn't even know you could see them from this distance.
I had my hopes up, was it just my imagination and I've seen wrong? After a few minutes someone dropped right next to me into the snow and jumped, spammed the "noise" button and I replied back. To this day I am certain it had to be him, it was my own little happy ending and that's a moment in gaming I'll never forget. Walking into the light and both reaching the end.

To all those who I may have played with in Journey:
I don't know who you are.
I don't know where you live, or what you do, or even what your names are.
But I know that you shared this with me. You shared this beautiful experience with me, and together, we made it through.
And for that, I love you.
Even though we'll probably never meet, know that I love you for sharing this with me.
Thank you.

To all the people who are saying they've never played through this experience,
PLEASE! I'm begging you. It is a very short play through and won't take up much time but this is the most beautiful "journey" you will ever go on. I promise!
Please do yourself a favor and take 30 minutes of your time, and fully embrace yourself in this world. Words cannot do it justice. We can all sit here and tell you how great this game is, but it
will never be the same as you playing it for yourself. Everyone has their own experience with it and they are all different and yet, still beautiful.
