Metaphor: ReFantazio

这一切真的是幻想吗？

暗喻幻想:ReFantazio-理想国度的虚妄之梦 「当世界并不完美时，我们是否还有改变它的可能？还是选择接受现实，放弃那个看似不可能的未来？」 暗喻幻想讲述的是一个关于“理想”的故事。 在这个幻想世界里，人们被身份、种族和阶级划分，强者掌握更多权力，弱者只能接受自己的处境。许多人并非不知道这个世界存在问题，只是他们认为改变根本不可能。 而游戏想追问的是：如果现实已经如此糟糕，人是否还有勇气相信一个更好的未来？ 暗喻幻想最吸引人的地方，是它创造了一个充满现实隐喻的幻想世界。 表面上，这是一次寻找王位继承人的冒险；实际上，主角一行人的旅程，是对这个国家旧有秩序的挑战。 这个王国拥有辉煌的历史，却隐藏着严重的不平等。不同种族之间存在隔阂，普通人难以改变自己的身份，而人们也逐渐习惯接受这种规则。 因此，主角面对的敌人并不只是某个强大的反派，而是一套根深蒂固的观念。 它想表达的不是“击败敌人，世界就会改变”，而是真正困难的，是打破旧有认知，并创造一个新的未来。 玩法方面，暗喻幻想融合了AULUS的策略战斗与角色培养体系。 当然，暗喻幻想也存在不足。 游戏后期对于部分世界设定和社会矛盾的展开不够深入，一些提出的问题没有得到充分描绘。同时，相对严肃的叙事氛围，也让作品少了一些轻松冒险中的陪伴感。 但作为一款原创幻想作品，它依然展现出了独特的创造力。 暗喻幻想并不是告诉玩家，幻想可以替代现实。正因为现实存在遗憾，所以人们才需要幻想去寻找另一种可能。一个更好的世界不会凭空出现，它需要有人愿意相信，也需要有人愿意行动。 当旅程结束时，玩家或许会发现，这场寻找理想国度的冒险，真正改变的不只是世界。 还有那些曾经认为自己无法改变世界的人。 因为所有伟大的改变，都始于一个看似不可能的想法

It's good. Pretty typical Persona game. However, it's very lenient on time and roleplay choices. You won't need to be constantly checking a guide to get the best ending. Dialogue choices don't matter for the most part. You also don't need to stress about finishing quests, friendships, stats, etc.. there's enough time to do absolutely everything and be left twiddling your thumbs at the end wondering how to pass the extra days.

Metaphor 2 when?

GENUINELY LIFE CHANGING

good game, worth it if it is on sale! dont be scared that its woke just bc the MC looks like a girl, its just an asian child, they look like that and tbh not even an asian alpha male could look more masculine then the square jawed women that get so very popular nowadays in our western hellhole of a culture... there is also a suspicious looking character later but dw, he is evil, he looks like that to make him more hateable and not to HuMaNiZe him xD now about the actual game the demo has 6 hours of playtime, i suggest u try it out and see if you like it. i feel in the demo the balance between cutscenes and fights is ok however after the demo that changes, it took me 4 hours to do the first dungeon (after the demo, it wasnt a slog but it was a noticeable difference from the earlier pace, btw leave one of the summoning crystals alive so your mage can farm MP, not ideal, i wish they would sell MP items but... nothings perfect, overall it was still enjoyable) and there are times when its 1 hours+ of cutscenes, personally i can handle that but i am afraid thats not for everyone, the good thing is alot of it is voiced and i like the english dub. the story is fully skippable though, so if you dont like it, you dont have to sit through it and maybe u rather watch a recap of the story on youtube. the story may not be woke but some political themes are touched, i think the main message is "rage against the machine" although one could also wrap it up by saying "be kind to each other" racism is touched but as a white straight male i am not bothered by it even though the MC belongs to "the lowest of the races" lol i feel its subtle and most people wont even realize whats happening, well now i primed u for it so *U* might :D some thing i dont like is sometimes its worth to alt f4 and reload and face a fight with the right archetypes instead of just toughing it out... it feels bad if you bring the wrong archetype, the char feels so useless. good thing is the autosave system is good (at least until now) i could always just alt f4 and the autosave got me right before the fight. the balance is also bad, every dungeon i go i only do quick fights now because i outleveled the areas, i didnt grind, i only did all the sidequests and another thing that i noticed... all the most fun dialoge options are a trap! you dont get funny responses, all you get is less rewards :( WTF?! why are they there? did they want to be funny but the mean evil CEO came in and cut the humour out? (there is still humour but the dialogue option thing is weird) well... be good guys and always pick the "right" answer :D
