Pentiment

我自己玩下来感觉非常好，所以我会推荐像我一样，对情绪和氛围比较敏感，习惯性思考的玩家去玩。 剧情其实都不复杂，但是沉浸感很强，感觉自己好像真的成为了主角似的。里面的人物也很像真的，能很清楚地感受到他们的想法，理解他们为什么会这么做，从而为事情的结果感到欣慰或者惋惜。每章之间的时间跨度会有点大，所以你能看到那些在你眼前真实发生的事情，现在变成了历史，你只能看到所有选择的后果非常直接地摆在你面前，看着老去的旧人，新生的生命，看着曾经辉煌的废墟，伴随着响起的人声吟唱bgm。当时我一句话都说不出来，只能感受到鼻子酸酸的，心脏在跳动。 相对的，营造沉浸感的一些设计——比如说跑图，一些塑造氛围和真实感的对话、文本或者演出，就会成为你打二周目刷成就最大的阻力。 这游戏比起说是悬疑故事，更像是借着案件的壳子在描述这段时期人们的生活的故事，他会给与案件无关的所有人非常真实的塑造。游戏性这一块见仁见智吧，基本上就是对话，调查，更像能自己自由探索的文字游戏。 体验感最好的游玩方式应该就是用自己的想法去过一遍剧情，反正我就是这么做的，好久都没有遇到让我这么有感觉的游戏了，太优秀了。

Эта игра – искусство. Даже само название игры, «Pentiment», является живописным термином. Пентименто, что произошло от итальянского слова pentirsi, дословно «раскаяться» или «передумать» — это видимый след авторской поправки, изменение, которое художник внёс в картину прямо в процессе работы. И это идеально описывает всю игру. Ведь, несмотря на внешнюю тематику убийства в маленьком городке и последующего детектива, в первую очередь эта история об изменениях. Изменениях в городе. В людях. В мире. В религии. В искусстве. Уже только за это можно полюбить Pentiment. Но меня особенно покарила визуальная часть игры. Стиль, отсылающий к средневековой фресковой живописи. Церковная эстетика, которая, несмотря ни на что, очаровывает. Музыка, ради которой хочется остаться на локации подольше и просто слушать. Всё это восхищает и создаёт невероятную, завораживающую атмосферу.

Pentiment is a game that is so different from anything I've ever played before. I can't help but wonder how the development team managed to make this whole thing work. There is almost no gameplay, the music is barely present, and there is no voice acting. Only sound effects, text, and animations convey life in this world. And yet, despite all of that, it feels so alive, so meaningful, so powerful. The story it tells is such a slow burn, such a long breath. And "breath" is the keyword here, because almost everything this game does is breathe. It takes its time to such an extent that every meaningful event feels incredibly powerful and impactful. As a result, the player can't help but feel as though real historical events are unfolding before their eyes. I only have one negative thing to say about this game: there is a particular sound effect that I find annoying when certain characters speak. It sounds like two wooden blocks being tapped together. I really wish they had used the sound of a quill scratching on paper for all of the dialogue instead. Apart from that, I know that the game offers multiple options and entirely different sequences of events depending on your choices, but I don't feel compelled to explore those other routes. Not because the game is boring or anything of the sort, but because doing so would require a huge time investment. More importantly, I feel like the story I experienced—with all of its good and bad decisions—is my version of the game. Going back and changing those choices by exploring different routes would, in a way, diminish the value of the experience I had. I will warn you, though: if you don't like reading a lot or slow-burn mysteries, this game will probably bore you to death.

Pentiment is such a good, soulful experience, that I really doubt we'll ever see another project of this quality from Obsidian Entertainment. Especially not with the current Xbox Game Studios management. They'd very much prefer The Outer Worlds 3, or something else that digestible. I didn't expect this game to be this cool. And yet it is. Not knowing medieval and religion history doesn't ruin the experience. However, knowing the context makes Pentiment so much better, I guarantee. The story of Andreas Maler is definitely touching, and watching the changes (often influenced by your own actions) happening to one small European hamlet is satisfying, to say the least. The villagers feel so lively, so amazing in terms of both writing and visuals, that you'll have no problem learning who is who and remembering what happened to each and every one of them.

真正的第九艺术！三章之间的时间流逝，塔兴以及每个农民家庭的变迁和主角的变化，让人在游戏中感受到了历史不仅仅是伟大英雄的宏大颂歌，更是那些小人物最卑微的叹息，这些不曾被记入年代的声音，在游戏中被装进福音书里，用文字和绘画一一描述。当终章的书页终于合上，塔兴教堂的彩窗仍在你眼中燃烧，而你的手掌已沾满看不见的往昔尘埃。你这才明白，原来不是故事在时间中推进，而是时间本身就是这个故事的主角。
