Wonder if folks would wanna see a stream of Journey played even without voice to interrupt the music

'Final Confluence' started playing in my head un-bidden and the memory of the intense emotion I felt in that moment came surging back.

Genuinely, I think the first time I played a game that made me cry. I don't know how a game with no dialog, just the moments you have on this journey, brought such intense emotion forth.

To some extent I feel like it's not something that should be streamed, because it _is_ such a personal experience, at least it was for me. It's intentionally subjective, there's vagueness that allows one to find a meaning in it of their own. And I wouldn't want to take that from anyone who's never experienced it and might.

I believe this stronger than a lot of other "should be experienced" games. Something about it, the challenge, taking just...time. It's meditative in a way, the gentle focus, not on objectives, but on the journey itself. It's wonderful.

@KayOhtie (Rewrite since I read more into the first post than the second)

I think as far as streaming-not-streaming for Journey, streaming it is probably fine. Though it might be hard to convey a first play, and I agree others take their own experience from it, which is big.

Sky, otoh, might stream better, especially if you haven't played it. Similar experience, but a stream would convey and touch maybe 1%, and I won't initially say more for spoilers.
