r/stray

Is there anyone that can help me get this trophy? I’ve tried for a good while, gave up and tried to just complete the run and I just cannot do it. I still really want the trophy but I just need help. If you’re skilled enough and kind enough I can screen share and perhaps you can help me!

I really liked Dami Lee’s video on Kowloon Walled City, but one thing I haven’t really seen yet—and honestly might end up making myself if nobody else does—is a deep architectural analysis of Stray.

People often compare Walled City 99 to Kowloon, and there are a few architectural breakdowns and technical discussions online, but Stray feels fundamentally different in a lot of ways. The city’s construction style, the massive sewer systems, the layered infrastructure among other things.

I think a video exploring questions like “Would a city like this actually be possible?” or “What would it realistically take to build and maintain something like Walled City 99?” would be incredibly interesting.

With the free cam mod and some technical analysis, there’s a lot that could be explored in detail:

• Why are there so many pipes everywhere? What are they actually carrying?
• How does the infrastructure even function across such a vertically dense city?
• Were the buildings constantly being repaired, expanded, or rebuilt?
• Why do the structures seem so integrated despite all the visible scaffolding?
• Why are there almost no obvious construction seams or major style shifts that would show different eras of development?

The city feels less like separate buildings stacked together and more like one giant construction wonder.

Would anyone else watch something like this? Or does anyone know of a video/channel that already goes this deep into Stray’s architecture?

What are yalls thoughts?

We know from early in the game that the scientist who became B-12 tried to upload himself into a robot body after his family died, but the upload didn't work. However, we see other sarcophogi scattered around during gameplay and I'm relatively sure B-12 mentions humans trying to upload themselves into robot bodies.

Could this be why the robots in the slums and midtown are so different from those in the control room, who are emotionless automatons? Whereas the robots we meet during the game have personalities, relationships – including parent/child relationships – and yearn for the outside?

For a personal art project of mine, I was looking about building some part of one of the towns in stray. Despite the amount of photos on line, I haven't been able to get good photos on at least one part of the towns from different angles and haven't had time to go in game to check. Would anyone have resources I could check out to go off of? Thanks!
