Metaphor: ReFantazio

Игра огонь! Не жалею потраченного времени

The storytelling, combat and almost everything about this game is so peak, the antagonist is one of my favourite i have seen so far in videogames, i am shocked that i didnt play this sooner (should have won GOTY 2024 instead of astrobot)

Игра полная ♥♥♥♥♥, я так устал когда её прошёл, ещё эти ♥♥♥♥♥ последние заезды 5 раз в конце

Was it fantasy? One hundred hours of fun! King had bad hair tho

最后一个同伴加入得太晚了 玛丽亚太可爱了

bad last boss

If I thought Persona 5 Royal was a lifechanging experience, Metaphor completely blew my mind in a whole new direction. After spending a good 93 hours immersed in this world, I am honestly speechless. What an absolute masterpiece of a journey. Having played Atlus games before, I expected great gameplay, but this feels like the absolute pinnacle of everything they have ever perfected. The combat system is a brilliant blending realtime action for weaker enemies with incredibly deep strategy through the Archetype system. It is fluid, fastpaced, and intensely rewarding. But what truly stole my heart, just like in P5, is the emotional core of the game. Building bonds with your followers doesn't just make you stronger; it gives you a profound look into their internal struggles, making every single companion feel deeply human, real, and memorable ILY Basilio!!!!! Where Metaphor truly transcends is in its narrative and its message. Moving away from urban fantasy into a grand, political highfantasy setting, the story delivers a powerful critique of anxiety, prejudice, and society.

这游戏带给我的震感程度不亚于6年前在ps4上第一次玩ff7 remake，当然仅限前中期，后期它给我的失望程度也不亚于ff7 rebirth 在游戏初期，它从种族、阶级、信仰、民生等多个角度与玩家探讨社会、宗教甚至是哲学议题，以一款jrpg来说是非常大胆的一步，但可惜的是起点越高、步子迈得越大，跌落时就会越惨。且不说前期红毛女、歌姬等人觉醒剧情写的太过仓促，等到后期你跟我说主角根本不是白手起家汇聚伙伴消除歧视草根革命的人设，而是靠宣传自己是皇家血统来为自己争夺王位正名，甚至声称自己“永远不会撒谎”的路易都要向国民隐瞒自己真正的种族以此来笼络民心，你们口口声声说要改变国家让种族平等，可自己却无法言行一致。主角能走到最后跟路易决战，可以说有一半因素是因为他有两位知识渊博的老爹和精通魔力的精灵老妈，他们用自己的生命为主角铺路，这种血统论的走向在jrpg里已经太套路了，当然在看到主角团为了续写幻想继续旅程的结尾，旁白诠释“幻想”题材背后的含义时，还是有那么一丝感动，只可惜成也jrpg，败也jrpg 至于战斗方面，回合制部分依旧做的很有挑战和趣味性，可以说集atlus游戏之长，特别是前期缺魔法时，在迷宫每场战斗精打细算，最后boss房前存好魔法或是找个小怪群靠阿基态免费回复都是不错的手段。可是在战斗外角色攻击、翻滚的手感仿佛回到了2010年左右国产单机仙剑之流的水平，简直让人无法相信这是2020年后制作出来的游戏。最后队友的阿基态不能随主角解锁也是非常逆天的设定，新队员入队，几十种阿基态要一个个激活、一个个练级太折磨了 Ui设计、美术风格和音乐水准是唯一没法黑的地方，毕竟这么多年的老资历，这部分再做不好这品牌还有哪些凯子能买单呢 7/10 总体来说是个前中期十分惊艳，后期让人有些失望的作品，还是那句话，成也jrpg，败也jrpg，哎

It's an okay game, but the gameplay isn't very intuitive. If you've played the Persona series, you'll probably find it easier to get into. The Archetype battle system is quite interesting, and the combat itself feels fresh and original. However, all of that is undermined by how completely useless melee attacks are. Why include them at all when combat is almost entirely dependent on Archetypes, which constantly consume MP? If you run out of MP, you're basically out of options...not even your melee-focused characters can save you. On top of that, the game feels incredibly mean-spirited when it comes to recovery points. They are few and far between, and because the game is constantly pushing you to manage your time efficiently, you can easily end up five hours into a dungeon or quest only to realize you didn't buy enough MP recovery items. At that point, your only realistic option may be to reload an old save and start over. In a game with this much dialogue, that's an especially painful realization. If you decide to play this game, make sure to buy MP replenishment items whenever you get the chance. Otherwise, you'll likely struggle with resource management throughout the game. Overall, it's a no from me. That said, if you're a Persona fan and enjoyed those games, you'll probably have a much better time with this one. Just wait for a sale instead of paying full price.

[h1] Just play Persona instead [/h1] I wanted to like this game, and it has some really cool stuff to offer that is unfourtantely mired in a lot of bad design choices and horrid pacing. I'm not the first to say this but Metaphor is just worse Persona is every way, The unique world is interesting but not enough to justify the lacklustre Archetype system or the plot that takes 10 hours to get going on an interesting premise only to abandon that premise 2/3rds of the way in for the most cliche thematically defeating reveal [Spoiler] The Nobody Mc was actually the most super special boy all along who has the special blood that gives him the divine right to be King and we will just maintain the royal family status quo and not really address the inherent issues with the system [/Spoiler] . The entire game feels half baked but coated in excellent production quality so you don't notice until you've taken a few bites.
