I really appreciate Chris's compassion on this subject. I'm just a bit in but... I have agoraphobia and this sort of hit hard. I'm getting better, like I leave my house I'm just struggling to leave by myself, but hearing Chris say how sad and depressing this guy's life is just sort of really hit home. Especially the wanting to try more but not being able to articulate why you can't to those around you, and the hating yourself for not being able to.
Edit: finished it and poor Phil. I haven't empathized with a fictional character this much in a while. I see so many parallels, it's upsetting because the developer did such a damn good job here. So realistic and relatable. Fortunately my family didn't suffer an incident like this, but my initial agoraphobia was triggered by essentially my entire close family dying in rapid succession. It really takes a piece of you with them. Again though, Chris was amazing in this playthrough with his empathy and kindness. I can't imagine the typical let's player handles difficult intimate stories like this one with such tact and kindness.

âLight heartedâ yes because my heart sank to my aĹs at the ending đ

Knowing the track record of previous episodes of Midnight Scenes . . . I don't think the next one's gonna be light-hearted.
The dad was obviously abusive towards Piper. The mother wasn't helping either, as she let a lot of the dad's shit slide. Piper felt all alone at the end, but she didn't do the same to her brother. She must have loved him the most. Too bad she traumatized him in the worst way imaginable.
The shadows were a perfect representation of his repressed memory as well. Two 3-eyed shadows and the third with a gaping mouth.
Man, this was a real good one! Bittersweet ending, but at least he got out of there when he did.

the Barbie and the Ken doll comment was hilarious! LOL

I'm just starting to watch the video but wow, it hits a bit too close to home right away. I suffered from extreme agoraphobia for two years, I couldn't go out of my apartment at all. It wasn't sudden in my case but I slowly started to not being able to go to some places to not being able to go anywhere. At least I had access to all facilities I needed at home, got groceries delivered in front of my door, had enough savings, and had a support system in my family and my medical team. Everyday, I wanted to go out, see my friends, even just take a 5min walk.. but my brain would freeze and I would feel so much fear that I couldn't go out. I felt incredibly guilty to not be able to do something as "simple" as going out, some people didn't understand that it was an horrible and terrifying time for me, and that I wasn't just being lazy staying home all day. Nowadays, my symptoms have improved a lot, I can go outside for a few hours, though I'm often exhausted afterwards. Still I'm getting better and trying to celebrate all the little milestones. Some days are better than others, but you should never give up. Things can improve, things can change. If you're at the very bottom, all you can do is go up, so keep trying â¤ď¸â¤ď¸

Chris, I hope you alright. We haven't heard from you for a while. Hugz xxx

Chris being kind and empathetic the whole story was wonderful. Phil has been through so much and the story was well written.

Got to the end. Did anyone else catch the foreshadowing with the priest his mom calls to talk to him being different from the one he sees outside his window?

Ok. Weird! My name is Noelle. Hearing Chris saying my name was the high point of my day!! You dont see too many video games where a character is named Noelle. They actually spelled it correctly!

I really like your decent commentary. You're present without the need of talking non-stop or taking focus from the game. And I like your empathy.

I completely understand why CJU took a mental break after playing Midnight Scenes.

I had nightmares like that. It was worst when I went to therapy because they want you to remember your trauma.

Feels like forever since we saw any Midnight Scenes games.

Holy shit. This game went so much more viscerally emotional than i was expecting. Kudos to the devs for tackling this story. I wasn't expecting this.

CJU: And if you want to be in a safe place...
Me: ...you probably shouldn't be watching this!
:D

Absolutely excellent story. More of a tragedy than a horror. Thank you for being compassionate about Philâs agoraphobia, CJU

Its not often a game impresses me enough to want to know the writers, but this one did. Such a well written, well informed and well constructed storyline. I love how we saw Phil over the days losing his grip on reality, .. how he started to become dependant on Noelle, and how her crisis brought Phils own crisis to a head. There were some big 'issues' being dealt with here, and they were handled beautifully. I can see a lot of research went into this. Well done Devs. Also, as an introverted reclusive person, I want to give props to Chris and his handling of the commentary and the tone he created for this playthrough. Also, to my fellow Recluses and Agoraphobes, I truly believe every one of you are beautiful sensitive folk who are doing the best you can, and you will find your own pathways. Plus, we're all so good looking, we have to give the rest of the folk a chance, by staying in, out of the way...right.. ;) xx

Amazing that all this was done by only two persons. It's so impressive. And the story and the character build-up was so much better than all I witnessed in the latest AAA-titles. A further proof to my point that one person with a vision and passion can do so much more than a pack of 30 overpaid writers and consultants. Without indie devs gaming would - at least for me - a vast desert by now. So yeah, I guess I'll go along with the mantra and say: "Support your indie devs".
I watched all the Midnight Scenes games so far and hope to see a lot more from the Navarro/Granell team.

This... was extremely good storytelling. The habits and varying degrees of loneliness of a hikikomori hit heavily (emotionally) and is actually very relatable to a lot of introverts (like me).
Chris, thank you for your compassion. We can all feel it while you were playing this game.

Definitely one of the more original "man struggles with dark trauma he's tried to forget" stories in a while. Really good job on building him as a character and making us sympathise with him in a way most indie horrors don't manage
