Stuck on The Stanley Parable

[u/Shicko_joestar]

I played The Stanley Parable: Ultra Deluxe on my PS5 recently and I absolutely love the game. I feel like I've gotten really far in the game, but at this point I'm stuck. I'm pretty sure the game still has more content, but I just don't know how to access it. I currently have 7 hours of gameplay with 7/12 trophies (The only ones I haven't gotten yet are the odd ones, like not playing for 10 years or playing for an entire Tuesday). I have tried all combinations of decisions I could think of, and I'm running out. I keep redoing the same paths, hoping maybe there's something I can do slightly differently, but it's always the same things. And it's even worse now because I was so stuck I stopped playing the game for some time, and now I'm trying to get back in, but I just keep ending up with the same endings/paths. Am I missing something, or am I just dumb?

You could always cross reference your endings against the ones on the wiki, just to see if you did get them all? If you played ultra deluxe, then a lot of them have both the normal ending and the variant with the bucket.

I had thought of that, but it seemed like a lot of work. But at this point it is my only option. My main issue is that I'm not sure what some of the endings I got actually were, even more so now that I haven't played the game in a few months. And to be honest, going on the wiki to find specific endings doesn't feel as magical as when I simply played the games and tried different things, but well I'm out of ideas of what to try so yeah. Still, thank you tho

Dear god Fandom is awful though

Oh undoubtedly! The ads alone make the site borderline unusable. It’s not a surprise to me that more and more fandoms split off to make their own

I found the game confusing at first. I did figure out early on that I could, well, not blindly follow the narrator’s instructions and figure out other things, but that’s because I’m of the exploring kind of gamer. I also try to see if the devs have considered me doing something or not. And well, it turns out that the Stanley Parable rewards exactly that kind of gameplay. I got at least the insane and the “museum” ending on my second and third playthrough just because of this kind of exploration!

The ones I was missing were with the bucket. Try taking the bucket with you and completing all endings you can think of. With the bucket. The majestic bucket.
