A Plague Tale: Requiem

Ой, а что это я в стиме не оставил отзыв на это замечательное произведение искусства, надо исправить.(матюки и спойлеры имеются): Это неимоверно устаревшая игра с геймдизайном уровня нулевых годов, где ты по скрипту не можешь пройти малюсенький огонек, в котором героиня сгорает так, будто попала в жерло вулкана. Но апофеоз случается в 12 главе, когда нам надо убегать от врага, который ЕСТЕСТВЕННО за нами будет еле-еле пафосно идти, гг еле ходит к этому моменту, тк кубарем с лестницы упала, то есть ему НИЧЕГО не мешает догнать её и всадить меч в спину, но нет, надо рассказать какую-то ЧУШЬ про свой мини-сюжет (это отдельная тема), и пафос, куда же без него. Потом надо заманивать его в комнатки, как это ТУПО выглядит - это просто видеть надо, я буквально ржал с этой импотенции у геймдизайнера. Мы вбегаем в комнату, он входит за нами, потом мы протискиваемся через дыру в стене, и как вы думаете что он делает? СТОИТ НА МЕСТЕ 2 ЧАСА, ЧТОБЫ МЫ УСПЕЛИ ЕГО ЗАКРЫТЬ, ♥♥♥, КАК МОЖНО ПОСЛЕ ТАКИХ ЭПИЗОДОВ ВСЕРЬЁЗ ВОСПРИМИНАТЬ ЭТУ ИГРУ? СЮЖЕТ - это просто что-то с чем-то, начиная с того, что они ВЗРЫВАЮТ НAXYЙ БОЧКИ В КАКОМ-ТО СТАРОМ ПОДЗЕМЕЛЬЕ, которое должно было стать их могилой после первого же взрыва, ну и снова эта ♥♥♥♥♥♥ 12 глава. [spoiler]Гуго оставляют БЕЗ ОХРАНЫ, Амицию почему-то решили НЕ УБИВАТЬ, хотя граф, ходящий пафосно за нами, говорил, что прирежет ее как собаку, а графиня удивилась, что она до сих пор живая. ТЕМ НЕ МЕНЕЕ, героиню не убивают, убивают матуху, Гуго, ОСТАВЛЕННЫЙ БЕЗ ОХРАНЫ НАПОМИНАЮ, идёт спокойно смотреть как мать убивают, ЕСТЕСТВЕННО ВЫЗЫВАЕТ КРЫС, КОТОРЫЕ СПАСАЮТ АМИЦИЮ, ГУГО И УБИВАЮТ ОСТАЛЬНЫХ, ля, более клишированной блевотины я не видел уже лет 100.[/spoiler] Лор про балисиоса, первого носителя макулы - вообще полный бред, КАКОГО XYЯ этот алхимик обоссанный, зная что было, когда басилиоса заточили в темницу, ХОЧЕТ ТО ЖЕ САМОЕ СДЕЛАТЬ С ГУГО, хотя вполне логично, что его надо прирезать просто. Лор графини написан на отъeбись, что-то граф промямнил, пока ПАФОСНО шёл на Амицию, и все на этом, логики там никакой. Над завязкой сюжета кста вообще не парились, тупо копипаст первой части. Ну и в начале тоже бред, крысы в городе появились из-за Гуго, и МГНОВЕННОГО солдаты оцепили огромный кусок города, что герои этого даже не заметили, вот тут верю, поверил. Из хорошего в игре - графон, музон, игра актеров, экшн-сцены, персонаж Арно (остальные новые персы - полное ГАВНО) и концовка неплохо поставлена, но из-за бредовости остального сюжета, воспринимать ее сложно, есди вообще невозможно. В остальном это такой посос, я в шоках, в еще бОльших шоках, что у игры под 90% положительных, в ЕЩЕ бОльших шоках, что после этого недоразумения кто-то ждёт и следующую часть. Я кончил.

First playthrough review time. A Plague Tale: Requiem builds on the first game in many ways. I played the first game about a year and four months ago, but it was still easy to get back into this sequel. The gameplay mixes stealth, combat, exploration, and puzzles well, and the larger areas give more freedom to choose how to move forward. Exploring side paths is also useful because the extra resources help with upgrades later in the game. The difficulty is fair, and most sections become easier once you slow down instead of rushing. The story kept me interested from beginning to end, and the voice acting and cutscenes are very well done. The graphics look great throughout the game, with detailed locations that change a lot as you progress. I played on ultra settings with everything maxed out. Performance was mostly smooth throughout my playthrough, with very few stutters. The occasional stutters did not seem like a hardware issue and appeared to be related to the game itself. I also noticed the camera sometimes sticking near objects and a couple of small bugs that required a checkpoint reload, but none of them caused much lost progress. Overall, this is a very good sequel that improves on the first game while keeping the same style. The gameplay, visuals, and story are all handled well, and the technical issues are fairly minor. Since the story continues directly after the first game, it is better to play that one before starting this sequel.

[h3]• Une aventure qui restera gravée…[/h3] À chaud, je viens de terminer A Plague Tale: Requiem, et je dois dire que j’ai refermé le jeu avec cette drôle de sensation que seules certaines aventures arrivent à provoquer. Le destin d’Amicia et Hugo m’a profondément touché. On retrouve l’atmosphère magnifique du premier opus, mais avec un monde encore plus grand et travaillé. Les villages, les paysages du sud, les villes médiévales… tout est somptueux. Il m’est arrivé plusieurs fois de vouloir dire à Hugo : « Attends deux secondes… je regarde juste le paysage. » Les musiques sont magnifiques et accompagnent parfaitement les moments les plus intenses, renforçant encore cette impression de vivre leur histoire plutôt que de simplement la jouer. Et puis il y a cette relation entre Amicia et Hugo. C’est clairement le cœur de l’aventure. On s’attache à eux, on partage leurs peurs, leurs espoirs, leurs doutes… et plus l’histoire avance, plus on comprend que cette aventure ne pourra pas se terminer sans laisser quelques cicatrices. Côté gameplay, c’est plus mitigé. Les possibilités sont plus nombreuses, mais les combats restent pour moi le gros point faible. Jongler entre les armes, les capacités et les ennemis peut rapidement devenir brouillon. Les phases d’infiltration sont plaisantes au début, mais finissent également par devenir répétitives, avec quelques passages où la frustration prend malheureusement le dessus. Mais malgré ça, je n’ai jamais perdu l’envie de connaître la suite. Et c’est probablement la plus grande réussite du jeu : même lorsque le gameplay m’agaçait, l’histoire, les personnages, les paysages et cette atmosphère incroyable me donnaient envie de continuer. [h3]⤷ En conclusion : [/h3] A Plague Tale: Requiem n’est pas parfait, mais c’est une aventure qui possède quelque chose de rare : elle fait ressentir des émotions tout le long. Et lorsque le générique arrive, on ne quitte pas simplement un jeu… on quitte Amicia et Hugo. Je recommande vivement, surtout si vous aimez les jeux narratifs, contemplatifs et émotionnels, avec une histoire forte, des personnages auxquels on finit réellement par s’attacher et une direction artistique magnifique. Il faudra simplement accepter quelques combats brouillons, des phases d’infiltration parfois répétitives et une progression qui peut manquer de souplesse.

This story is an absolute masterpiece! An emotional rollercoaster that was worth every minute of my time. The graphics and the gameplay were just as good. Amazing voice actors too! Unforgettable journey! No complaints at all. Made me think “finally something like TLOU games that I absolutely adore!” It is like TLOU in the best way possible, because the story doesn’t feel copied, it has its own lore and era! Shortly put, this game made me feel more human, more alive, and absolutely a lot more grateful for everything in life. I recommend it to every human and more so every being wanting to be (feel) human. Hoping to come across more gems like this! Also, yes I have played both the games and so glad I did!! Cannot wait for the third one even though I know it’s different characters, I’d still love to play it!!

The rats are on the loose again. There are more and they are smarter and faster than before. As in the predecessor, we mainly control Amicia. There are new weapons and many new ways to finish off your opponents. The places are once again breathtakingly beautiful. Both the idyllic and the gruesome ones. A few areas offer a lot to discover apart from the story. The weapon menu has been redesigned, but seems a bit more complicated to me. Our little brother can be a bit annoying at times. (that's just how little siblings are). The story is seamlessly connected and continues to follow the journey of the two siblings. https://youtu.be/az6C11c_wI8 Die Ratten sind wieder los. Es sind mehr und sie sind schlauer und schneller als vorher. Wie auch schon im Vorgänger steuern wir hauptsächlich Amicia. Es gibt neue Waffen und viele neue Möglichkeiten seinen Gegnern den Garaus zu machen. Die Orte sind abermals atemberaubend schön gestaltelt. Sowohl die idyllischen als auch die grausamen. Ein paar Bereiche bieten viel zu entdecken abseits der Story. Das Waffenmenü ist umgestaltet worden, erscheint mir allerdings etwas komplizierter. Unser kleiner Bruder kann teilweise etwas nervig werden. (so sind kleine Geschwister halt). Die Geschichte wird nahtlos angeknüpft und folgt weiterhin der Reise der beiden Geschwister.

出色的画质，完美的配乐，鼠潮的压迫和雨果最后的死亡，都让人久久无法忘怀。 游戏玩法上进行了升级，问题是敌人的种类单一，解密老套，创新不足。 总结依旧是一部电影式线性剧情佳作。

Let me begin this review by stating that I really liked the first game, A Plague Tale Innocence, it was a great story with excellent pacing and character development. And it's because of this that I regret playing this game and hope to dissuade any other fan of the first from experiencing this travesty that has all the hallmarks of a bad sequel, with character-assassinating and retconning so much of what made the first game good. I adored the first game because it was medieval in the true sense of the word, where yes, there was violence and brutality but there were ALSO various social protections against violence, chivalric code, and progress being made in science and learning. There was a story and meaning to it. Requiem on the other hand, is set in ye grimdark olde dung ages, where everything revolves around violence, and superstitions, any “nice” place is secretly a filthy mass grave underneath with gore for the sake of gore and nearly everyone is a psychopath and it's all just filled with nihilism to the point it all feels meaningless in the end. There were multiple times where the game introduces an idyllic scene where it was obvious it wasn't going to last and it devolved into senseless killing, and the game does this over and over; and in the same way too, either an Uncharted-style chase sequence or the protagonist is trapped in an arena and cannot progress until she kills a horde of soldiers, only for the game to castigate her for it immediately afterwards in an incredibly unsubtle fashion. I guess the writers never read the adage “one death is a tragedy, a million a statistic”, because they seem incapable of writing a tragic scene without introducing entire crowds of innocent bystanders to get gratuitously killed off. And this game does Amicia and her companions from the first game massive disfavor, essentially butchering their character arcs and personalities from the first game (and in case of [spoiler] Beatrice [/spoiler], literally butchering them for cheap trauma porn and [spoiler]dead mom trope[/spoiler]) and the new characters introduced in the sequel are no better. Most are killed off before they get a chance to do anything interesting, and whilst the inquisition in the first game were stereotypical villains, at least they were consistent and well tied together with the gameplay and worldbuilding. Meanwhile, in Requiem you get several factions, all equally infuriatingly nonsensical and incompetent as well as cartoonishly evil, and most of the new lore and concepts either just contradict or cheapens the story of the first game. And all this just to end with a tragic ending that in no way feels earned. I’m not against games with a sad ending or characters making bad or selfish decisions, I loved Clair Obscur Expedition 33 for those exact reasons, but there all characters had clear motivations and character arcs that tied together with the main theme and game world, whereas Requiem constantly requires all characters to completely change their minds and act against their own interests several times for no other reason than to force in more conflict. But perhaps its biggest sin is to shoehorn in so many horrible scenes and mass deaths the protagonists themselves caused (which in turn also makes it incredibly hard to root for them), that when the ending came, rather than feeling sad as the writers intended, I just felt desensitized to all the ridiculous catastrophes that had been happening that I just felt “well, guess it’s over now”, not devastated, not crying, just an angry disappointment at the writers for making a story that’s nothing other than a long cavalcade of cheap emotional shots with no real progress or meaning at the end.

Eu PRECISAVA rejogar isso. Experienciei isso com novos olhos, praticamente. Uma visão totalmente diferente que doque eu tive com ele na primeira vez a 3 anos atras Se uma dica que eu posso dar é: REJOGUEM oq vcs jogaram a anos atras Em 3 anos é o suficiente para mudar muito o nosso pensamento sobre varias coisas, além de opiniões e criticas que tínhamos a certas coisas. Foi oq rolou comigo jogado APT:R ----- HISTORIA: A historia continua praticamente de onde o primeiro jogo havia acabado. Nos ainda estamos procurando como ajudar o Hugo em relação a Macula enquanto enfrentamos todas as consequências disso pelo caminho O jogo melhora em um nível absurdo na narrativa, cutscenes, peso, presença, dublagem, motion capture, expressões faciais em comparação ao seu antecessor. O peso de cada decisão aqui parece muito maior Os novos personagens introduzidos são fantásticos e bem expressivos, não são apenas um NPC que te acompanha por que o jogo quer ----- TRILHA SONORA: Ate aqui vemos uma melhora absurda. Musicas com um tema bem misterioso e orquestral que usaram de uma forma absurda. Combina totalmente com a vibe que o jogo quer passar. São musicas que ficam facilmente na cabeça Tanto as de perseguições, como as que tocam ao decorrer do jogo. Se quiser contar tbm, o som ambiente também é fantástico. Jogar isso aqui com um headset é papo de ser obrigatório ----- GAMEPLAY: Definitivamente não eh a melhor parte do jogo, mas funciona muito bem Amicia continua com o seu estilingue que mata qualquer um, essa porra forte do caralho ai. O bom que dessa vez a gente nn precisa ficar pegando pedra pelo chão, as munições são infinitas A única coisa que temos que fazer é continuar caçando recursos para fazer itens de fogo, itens que apagam fogo, itens que deixam o fogo mais forte e etc No geral, é uma melhora clara ao primeiro jogo. Não teve nada dessa parte que eu achei mal feito ou incondizente. Tudo perfeito na minha visão ------ GRAFICOS E OTIMIZAÇÃO: Bom, graficos não preciso dizer muito, ta ai as fotos no post. Eu considero o APT:R um dos jogos mais lindos que temos ate agora nesta década Eu queria ficar parando a todo instante pra tirar uma foto, é cada cenário incrível que, junto com a direção de arte, causa esse espetáculo visual na qual vocês estão vendo ai A otimização não é das melhores que eu ja vi, mas esta bem decente. Ele é um jogo pesado, aqui na RTX 3060Ti joguei com ele em 1440p DLSS Balanceado Não ficou o tempo todo a 60+, as vezes caia um pouco, as vezes dava um leve stuttering, mas nada problemático que realmente atrapalhe a experiencia Ja acho impressionante botarem meio bilhão de rato na tela e não travar praticamente nada, ent eu acho que eles devem ter feito o possível. E ficou BEM decente 10/10

- 1편은 명작, 2편은 명작과 수작사이 - 개인적으로는 1편 스토리가 더 재미있었음. 특히 악역이 1편 비탈리 경의 카리스마를 따라가지 못함. - 전작과의 연관성 : 1편 직후부터 바로 시작하기 때문에 1편 반드시 해야 되는 수준 도전과제 - 스킬을 1회차에 3개 다 딸 수가 없기 때문에 뉴게임+필요, 스킬을 적당하게 잘 분배했으면 챕터6에서 세이브, 로드로 다 따는 것도 가능 - 자원 및 업그레이드는 전작과는 달리 부족함이 없음.

Отличное продолжение первой части, концовка очень сильная эмоциональная, графика и музыка в данной игре отличная, для всех советую данную игру.
