Slay the Princess is a masterpiece, we already experienced the full game and walked endless playthroughs just to see how many changed and how many did not. Stp as the complete game is beautiful enough but I think we need to talk about the demo too, in the demo not much was revealed except the complete chapter 1s and a glimpse of the chapter 2 so we only get to just conjure some thoughts about the game's plot with what the game has, idk but I've been watching the game's demo since on Manlybadasshero's channel so yeah it was my introduction to the game.

So I've been rewatching the demo videos and I think there's something interesting about our assumptions before and how they differ in the full game, but even with our assumptions it still can be true since that's the games nature. Before I remember that many people believed that the narrator was the one who pulled all the strings and the narrator is bigger than both TLQ & TSM, some already caught on the main plot of the game but there were many comments discussing theories about the game is essentially just a "what if?" alternate version of Knights & Princess games, and how it's an edgy and more darker version of Stanley Parable etc. with the narrator gaslighting you and stuff. But the main thing is that the narrator was a BIG direction of the game and it's mystique led as to believe as such.

And I'm always emphasizing that one Nightmare Scene where she took off her mask is what made ME to believe that there could be a backstory to this. But there isn't, there wasn't people that could back up the background of the Princess, there aren't animals found in the world(construct), there were no birds but trees, there wasn't a story of the Princess that could back her up that she's HUMAN or even a real princess at that. Because she isn't a princess or THE princess, she's the Shifting Mound titled as a princess. (Quick Tangent here: I think the Narrator could have made TSM into something else rather than a princess, he could have made her a seamstress as he likes; maybe the Narrator just doesn't like royalty)

Especially TLQ, it's already given that he isn't human but his voices and his choices morale make him seem human a little. Many people in the comments actually thought TLQ was made to be a bird-like creature to be diverse to its players. There aren't exactly hints at the demo that we are a god and the half of TSM because the focus was centered on the Princess, even he has no backstory, no background, no nothing.

It was obvious that the 2 didn't really have a life except the plot device of TLQ slaying the Princess. So that should've been a big sign to ME atleast that I shouldn't expect a backstory or something to make things less vague. I thought in the complete game we will be given more hints about the 2(+narrator) and expand more on the personal things.

But no, in the full game we were given answers to our previous questions but were also given more. The “world” was just a construct representing many more worlds to be devoid of change. That's why there weren't many living beings surrounding the Construct, just Shifty & Gary (+ the trees). Because the Narrator wanted a scripted situation to happen in order to release his tension regarding death.

So basically the Narrator is actually the only one with an ACTUAL backstory, yet his story and where he come from isn't expanded more because, again, the game is centered around the two TLQ & TSM. 2 Gods and concepts reuniting again after being separated by a desperate man with a fear of death.

So again BASICALLY what my assumptions of how the Narrator was BIGGER than the two. He is actually smaller than the CONCEPTS of Permanence and Change. He tried to desperately remove death from the universe which is actually badass af by splitting the pair and making the other kill the other.

It just hurts my brain to think that the plot I subconsciously made was so drastically different compared to the final game. Yet it's satisfying at the same time, cause tbh I was expecting for there to be boss fight with the Narrator and finally breaking out of the artificial plot, instead we got an argument with Shifty and finally breaking out the artificial plot. Which is essentially the same thing just a WHOLE different execution of what I thought.

Thank you for listening to my ted talk

THIS SHI LONG ASFF bro I should go to sleep goodnight peeps

would she still need chains in this au?

So I've been looking at the "slay the monster" stuff and i think the stuff I've seen is neat i gotta ask. Has anyone thought about it where the goal ISN'T to slay the monster but to be a sacrificial maiden for the monster. A switching of places but not of roles.

I mainly ask this because i think it'd be very interesting to instead of the narrator painting the creature as something that deserves to be killed whose entire existence would be better off destroyed, it would be the narrator trying to show you how good it would be if you just let the monster devour you. You're a princess so obviously they wouldn't have sent you away if they COULD do something else. Look at how nice this cabin is, wouldn't it be lovely to rest here while doing a good thing. The monster while powerful and scary is gentle and will allow you to pass painlessly. Go on princess, step into the beast's maw and slip away into a deep slumber forever....

I do feel like the princess wouldn't be instigating the resets but the monster. I feel like it could play on the monster always wanting to desire something. The "cold" route (aka just doing what you're told with no hesitation) would be interesting. Imagine seeing a lady wordlessly step into your maw and allow herself to be devoured. While the stp cold route is vengeance of a killer i feel like it'd be the opposite. A curiosity the monster couldn't sate as it sat there after that odd event. They could feel time slowly pass now that they had an unanswerable question. Eventually becoming too much to bear so they die and it starts up again.

Anyways i mainly think it's interesting purely because the vibes of everything would be so different.

I think that since the hair is the more human feat of the princess and everything else is an animal, it's balding to show that her humanity is fading as you perceived her to be like a talking animal

rating the princesses based on how long their hair feels like to me (Vessels and Shifty)

Apotheosis- ∞/10 bro's hair is bigger than tower and all the other vessels combined 💀

Tower- 10/10 an olympic challenge to braid

Fury- 10/10 it looks longer than Tower's hair but tbh Tower's hair is floating

Eye of the Needle- 10/10 long and also coming from a giant💀

Adversary- 9/10 Tied up but pretty long

Beast- 6/10 she looks like she's balding, if not counting her fur she's pretty down the list

Den- 6/10 same with Beast

Wraith- 8/10 long for a skeleton

Specter- 8/10 Floating hair gang, pretty long as a human-size vessel

Nightmare- 8/10 same with Specter but hers have more dead ends jk

Damsel- 7/10 I like to think her hair is more fluffy/wavy and a littleee bit shorter than Prisoners

Prisoners- 7.5/10 her hair is straighter than Damsels

Drowned/Burned Grey- 7/10 Both have a drastically different hairstyle than the others, and are two sides of the same coin so yeah pretty similar

Witch- 8.5/10 I feel like her hair is longer if straightened

Thorn- 8.3/10 Looks a bit shorter than Witch as how she was drawn

Wild- 🌲/10 idk man

Wounded Wild- 8.3/10 One of the princesses with a different side part

Deconstructed Damsel- 📝/10 Not a single hair on her body jit that's paper💀

Bloated Drowned Grey(technically doesn't count as she isn't part of the vessels)- 5/10 idk how her hair is better than mine being a bloated corpse

Stranger- 9/10 considering they have 3(4?) heads I think their is pretty long combined

Razor- 0/10 I don't believe there's a single hair on her body, it's just bendy metal

Mutually Assured Destruction/Arm's Race/Empty Cup- -∞/10 💀💀💀💀

TSM- ∞∞∞/10 💀 Nahh

First Chapter Princess- 7/10 Medium-hair length queen

finally someone talking about skeptic

Had thoughts on how Cold and Skeptic are similar, but different.

They're both unemotional generally, but Cold suppresses emotion to deal with being hurt better, while Skeptic simply tries to ignore his emotions so they don't get in the way of logic.

Also Cold is a lot better at it than Skeptic. Skeptic tries to keep his emotions under control, but you can tell in the Drowned Grey when she starts drowning you that he's terrified.

Something something Skeptic being envious of Cold's ability to shut off his emotions, other Voices finding out and assuring him it's okay to be scared, etc.

extremely biased because they're my favorites but god i think damsel/tower would be such a fun combination

damsel: don't you just adore the sensation of your heart beating? all i want is to make him happy ^_^

tower, an equally fragile vessel, dispassionate as a result of her divine ascension, and disgusted by any acknowledgement she's still bound by flesh and desires: how i pity thee

Hero is a Johnny, just like his va

One question, if you guys had to give the voices and princesses from Slay the Princess names, what would you guys name them?
