The Stanley Parable

"Wow, The Stanley Parable just keeps getting better and better!"

"Ooh... nice and quiet. Finally. Well, I suppose we can both agree that I've failed, haven't I? My job was to be a teacher, and I so badly wanted to teach you exactly what The Stanley Parable is supposed to be, but... somehow I couldn't... I-Well, at any rate, I don't know if I care for The Stanley Parable anymore. Do you think any of this is actually in the main game? Honestly, I doubt it. What would that even look like? No, I think I've had enough of it. No more doors, no more demonstrations, no more... endings. That's the other problem with this game - there's too many bloody endings. I'm sick of them? How can one game end so many times? It doesn't make sense. Oh, but back at the beginning of the demonstration, now, that was lovely! No concerns about where it was all going, no confusion, just a blank slate. Yes, that's what I want. A game of beginnings. Hey, heh. Do you remember? When we met for the first time? And I showed you the technology used to make a demo, because I thought there actually was a demo? [Chuckle] Oh, we were so naive back then. How little we knew of the world. And then, when we ended up back in the waiting room? Even though you had already done that before? Yes! It's all so fresh in my memory. They were such wonderful moments! Ooh, and then when we played the game with the cup and you won! And then we kept wandering, and we ended up in a stairwell somewhere, and we just kept climbing and climbing - flight after flight after flight. I thought they would never end! And then we were on some kind of catwalk? I didn't have any idea what was down there, did you?"
