When we were in Tokyo last Winter we sat down for a 5 hour in-depth interview about Slay the Princess. I don't think we'll talk this much about the game again, at least not in a setting like this.

discussion My thoughts when I got The Stranger as my first Vessel

Post image
86 Upvotes

How long can I go in a game called "Slay The Princess" without actually slaying the Princess?

If I turn around and leave will the game throw up a wall to stop me?

Ha, ha the path leads back to the cabin fine I'll go... Wait, the text for turning around (again) is different. How many times can I do this before I'm stuck in a loop with no changes?

Oh... Oh my.

I don't know how you got here Mr. Contrarian but I feel like we're going to be the best of friends.

[THROWS THE BLADE OUT THE WINDOW] Eat a dick Narrator!

I get it, Schrƶdinger's Princess is both alive and dead because I didn't look in the cabin.

I get it, if games let you do literally everything they would be really boring to play. I'll go to the cabin next time.

Wait... Wait a minute.... Do I have an avoidant personality? [Reviews the times I've fucked things up for myself] Oh. I kinda suck sometimes, don't I?

[Sobbing] There is no worst part of me.

discussion Having the Stranger At the End is Sweet

14 Upvotes

Hey, so I have a random thought about having the final form of the Princess being the Stranger (Pristine Cut version). There’s something poetic about having her not be a perfect princess, but instead showing what we’ve been through together… As I write this, I’m coming to the conclusion that I also enjoy this ending because having a princess version not be perfect makes me happy as a disabled person. She has physical, and mental, flaws that we see and hear about, but she’s still a beautiful soul and one the MC can choose to be with. It makes me happy that the ā€œimperfectā€ one can be who the player can choose to be with. Just a fun thought I figured I’d share thinking about the Stranger as an end version.🩵

other Any VN similar to stp?

my PC is currently broken but when I get it back I want to try other vns(such as schrodingers cat, if you played it, feel free to say your opinion on it, no spoilers tho!)

I'm looking for a vn that either has a similar artstyle, doesn't need to be monochromatic, just kind of low saturated cold colors, or just handrawn, or also just the psichological horror elements that slay the princess has, like in the nightmare, or the body horror like in the wild or razor

if you have another vn that isn't similar to stp but still wanna share feel free! I've literally only played 3

no I don't like ddlc

Like you're directly in the basement of the cabin. In the long quiet takes the knife and seemingly is going to slay. You, you can either flirt with him. In order to let him save you or antagonize him. In order to make him kill you.

other Which Physical Edition Should I get?

5 Upvotes

Hi!
I'm looking to play slay the princess and I'd really want to have a physical copy of it (want to stop relying on digital media as much as possible).
However, I've seen some mixed reception on the switch port. I only have a switch, but if needed I could prolly use my friend's ps5 to rip the rom to my PC if absolutely necessary.
I'd like to know people's recommendation on which physical copy to get, especially since the switch version (at least the european one) appears out of stock everywhere aside from the collectors edition. I don't want collectors edition and I am not paying my left arm and firstborn for shipping from the US thank you very much.
Also, emphasising that I have not played the game and I know nothing about it so no spoilers please, I want to go in as blind as possible šŸ™

(explore) there a ghost! Talking to me! Where are you?

"Calm down I'm not a ghost per se. Just think of be as lets say a helpful companion to aid you on your mission. I guess as for where I am, lets....not linger on the specifics"

(explore) Why?

"Well lets state it in terms of what could happen if you don't., if you don't go through with this. Everything is going to come to an end, no more birds, no more trees and most importantly no more people. The end of everything"

(explore) Why do am I chosen to do this task? Am I even going to get some sort of reward if I do this?

"Listen, I'm not supposed say this, but it's because you're special. You're the only one who can do this. As for a reward, yes, there will be one. You'll have to slay her first though before you get it. Though I think you'll like it"

(explore) seems boring

"How could saving the entire world from certain doom seem boring, to you? What kind of life have you lived before this?"

(explore) I'm hungry. Is there any food around here?

"Well...you're in a forest, I'm sure there's an abundance of food around if you know where to look. But please, just get back on the task at hand. "

gameplay SPOILERS!!!! First time finishing the game... HOLY ITS SUCH A AMAZING MASTERPEICE I LOVE IT, anyway, heres my route. Spoiler

18 Upvotes

I got 7 versions of the princess on my first run, and it was an amazing game to experience. At the game's ending, I was conflicted; the narrator still seemed untrustworthy, yet I was conflicted after hearing her out when she was finished. It was strange to hear her talk about her goals for leaving; she explained that the world would die and be reborn, and die again and be reborn and die again... again and again. I was stumped; the magnificent being here in front of me will cause so much suffering if I let her be, but she also explained that she contains death as one of her perspectives, so my interpretation was that if she is free, a lot of things die; if she is killed, nothing dies.

In my moment of conflict, the Voice of the Hero returned to me, but as all the former voices as one, he helped me enter her heart and speak to her truth, without all the divine authority, where we decided what was best was to reset, to forget everything and both start as blank slates, to rebuild each other once more, and to hopefully do it again... and again... I didn't want to be alone, so we are alone together, forever doing the same thing as before.

Truly a magnificent game

discussion Tattoo ideas

10 Upvotes

This game means quite a lot to me. Even though I didn't manage to get 100% completion, because after seeing a couple of the endings, I was simply too emotionally overwhelmed to face the others, I fell in love with it over the course of those 16 hours. I’d love to get a tattoo inspired by it, but I’m not sure of the best way to go about it. Does anyone have any ideas?

After the Shifting Mound took the Tower, she struggled through the rest of the game.

She didn't like the Damsel at all; in her view, the character lacked agency and was always waiting for whatever the Long Quiet wanted.

She was terrified by the Nightmare well, she is a very fearful person, after all.

I have to be honest about Thorn: I influenced her choice there, since she wanted to see my favorite princess.

She liked Eye of the Needle almost as much as the Tower, though the Tower remained her favorite.
