I don't think even Raphael wants to be Raphael anymore.

The narrator's impression of Raphael sounds like Clavicus Vile's voice from Skyrim.

I have litterally played *almost* every important first person game since DOS. There are many iconic video game characters (for lack of a better term), but the narrator is quickly becoming my favorite of all time. In a way he is like the new Glados, but even better in that he is interacting with the fans in the real world with these videos.

(I say "for lack of a better term" because the narrator truly derserves a better title than "video game character" I am just too tired right now to think of a better description)

I really can't even comminucate how much I like the Stanley parable, and the narrator. I would honestly say that everyone should buy half-life 2 JUST to play this mod. The game itself is nothing compared to the stanley parable.

While I agree with Stanley Parable being an amazing mod, I don't think it'd be fair to compare the two games. Obviously of different genres and playing styles, HL2 is more focused around action and SP more around story telling and decision making. Both do what they do very well.

HL2 is a good game. But action based games are a dime a dozen, and half-life 2 is by no means the best in that category. In contrast, the Stanley Parable has created a category of its own. It is unique.

On top of that, the narrator is now interacting with the real world in a way by creating these videos and responding to fans.

They had created the narrator to be "that guy" which everyone wants to hear more from. And they have TONS of advertising potential if the Stanley Parable did something like Old Spice did with answering tweets.

Does The Narrator have a twitter? (one in character)

Obviously not, he'll wait for release date announcement date for his own game.

That will be emotional.

I think he misses the point of the story. To me, a large portion of the story seems to be about the illusion of free will in video games, and pointing out the fact that no matter what path (Other than quitting) you take, it is one that was designed for you.

Orange is my favorite emotion now!

Well played! Raphael shouldn'talk much to girls, even though he's partly emotional himself. Also, I'm amazed he actually got right to the point of what makes Stanley Parable unique - you can't change anything, you can chose to try - and chose to neglect that as "boring".

I am amused by both, the game and its reactions. Good reply! I wish I could come up with a burning question as funny, but when it's not genuine, it won't cause this effect.
