While the atmosphere and the art direction are pretty nice, the story commits the greatest possible sin in fiction: being pointless. It might as well not have happened at all. It’s like the writer set out to set up plot lines and resolve them in the most mundane, least interesting way possible. There’s dialogue and action decisions at various points, too, but none of them materially affect the outcome, beyond a character saying a different line. [spoiler] * The girls who get reported missing? They just went for a joyride and ended up in jail. * The love interest? She just flirts for no reason and is not at all interested in the protagonist. * The shady research facility out in the woods? It’s just a perfectly ordinary scientific installation tracking the movement and behaviors of fauna. (This is actually not even a mystery really; it’s quite obvious to any player right from the start.) * The main characters being spied on? It’s just a crazy veteran messing with them for no reason. * The protagonist’s personal problems surrounding his sick wife? Nothing gets resolved by the end one way or another. The trip to the wilderness was a waste of time that just put a pause on things and he returns home neither better nor worse than he left. [/spoiler] If the message is that running away from your problems doesn’t achieve anything, I guess it’s applicable, but it falls flat because it just feels like the narrative is incompetently constructed instead.
peak game, need a second game with deliliahs pov
はリリース当初からずっと大好きな作品で、あの圧倒的な没入感と、ワイオミングの大自然が醸し出す美しい雰囲気に一瞬で心を奪われました。孤独感の中にどこか温かさと切なさが漂うあの独特な空気感は、発売から何年経った今でも色褪せません。10/10
Uzun süredir bu kadar güzel yazılmış derin karakterleri olan bir hikaye görmemiştim. Karımız demans hastalığından sonra biz escapism olarak yangın gözetleme kulesinde işe başlıyoruz. Ama asıl hikaye hiç görmediğimiz bizimle aynı işi yapan farklı gözetleme kulesinde kalan delilah'ın telsizden bizimle iletişime geçmesiyle başlıyor. Delilah Npc bir karakterden çok insan olduğunu hisettiren gri bölgede bir karakter. İki karakter de gerçek hayatla yüzleşmek yerine kaçmayı tercih ediyor. Ama sonunda Henry karısını bırakmasının yüküyle yüzleşmeyi tercih ederken delilah henry'le arkadaşlığını büyük orman yangınından sonra bir veda etmeden sonlandırıyor. çünkü Delilah gerçek hayatla yüzleşmekten hep kaçmış bir karakter. Delilah kusurlu bir insan. Bir çok önemli şeyi görmezden geliyor ve yüzleşmek istemiyor. Bu sürede Delilah ile Henry telsiz üzerinden kusursuz bir arkadaşlık yakalıyorlar. Çünkü birbirlerinin sadece göstermek istedikleri yüzlerini görüyorlar. Gerçek dünya araya girdiğinde telsizdeki o büyü ve arkadaşlıkları bozuluyor. Henry’nin hikayesi de güzeldi. büyümenin ve iyileşmenin tek yolunun acıyı arkada bırakıp kaçmak değil o acıyı kabul edip onunla yaşamayı öğrenmek olduğu anlatılıyor. Bu kadar kısa sürede bu kadar derin bir hikaye anlatmak zor. Ayrıca Oyunu yapan Stüdyoyu valve tarafından satın alındıktan sonra yeni yapacakları oyunun bütçesini deadlock saçmalığına vermişler ve oyunu yapanları farklı yerlere göndererek stüdyoyu kapatmışlar. indie geliştiricilerin indie olarak kalması gerekiyor.
В начале игра хоть и обещает быть каким-то грустным повествованием о плаксливой драме, но потом она раскрывается, и вообще не остается этого ощущения. Отличная короткая игра на один вечер, ставлю "лосяру". Правда покупать за фулл прайс - ну такое себе, слишком что-то разрабы хотят. Но есть минус у Firewatch, что бывают очень странные баги с взаимодействиями. Например, когда хочешь прочистить себе путь от веток, то ты начинаешь просто убегать от этого места. Разрабы, пофиксите, игре то уже больше десяти лет!
I'm just... disappointed. Mostly walking and talking - great, but can we leave life for living and games for gaming? And still the thing Delilah says on the second day I guess is left unexplained. And don't talk about narrative stuff - go find yourselves an indie game to satisfy this need. Disappointing experience
对于生活中的种种不幸,大多数人最先想着的是逃避,可真正能够解决其不幸的根源的方法便是面对它,森林中那对父子的悲剧对应了主角的逃避,如果说主角最后能学到什么,便就是回头去面对自己的妻子,面对自己生活中的不幸,主角和女主一直无线电对话却没见到面,给我的感觉就像人与人的关系都是遵循距离产生美的定律的,一旦见面以及走近了也许就没有当初的那份幻想与美好了,总的来说游戏的剧情还是挺不错的,有种淡淡的感觉,但恰到好处,游戏的其他方面的话就是有点小BUG,交互的时候主角可能会一直往后退,以及被障碍物挡住的时候可能会被卡住,但也都是些小BUG,作为独立游戏已经很不错了,推荐喜欢偏剧情向的游戏玩家游玩
очень вайбовая и крутая игрушка
Well.... a good game where nothing happens.
Firewatch is such a great story-driven game. The gameplay is simple, but the story, atmosphere, and character conversations make the experience incredibly memorable. Overall, Firewatch is a beautiful and memorable game with an amazing story. 10/10. Highly recommended!
