平淡无奇,索然无味,没玩过1和2的打折可入,玩过1代2代的看看实况就行了,不好玩
Simulacra 3 Like the previous games you follow some characters , solving puzzles , and figuring out what happened. The earlier games had a certain pension for humor and comedy this game tries to take itself more seriously but unfortanely its more consistent its really lacking in complexity in terms of the first game and the second game to be interesting in the lore and the universe of the Simulacra. The main characters are pretty rough some really good moments but the characters are so linear and lesser interesting, and its a really grounded story you can't really go to the different path but the ending is the only thing that can change and even then the best ending is so easy to get. Replayability from that would be pointless which you know you don't need to be a good game but man theres almost nothing on a replay unlike the first and second games. It also lacks save spots and fast fowarding the text so in that department its kinda rough. But i can't really dislike the puzzles , its pretty good they're interesting and solid which is pretty fun stuff , but ultimately when i did it correctly? i enjoyed it. Theres a section thats pretty interesting in terms of video calling and makes it more creepy and scary mind you its not that scary. On another note the voice acting was good enough? but compared against the first and the second game its really rough , i assume the budget was less so i can't say much on that , but the voice acting the overall game it really lacks the layers the horror the scares the well written characters. While there is alot to enjoy here for story the game falls flat for me. I really preferred the first and second game , but i did enjoy Simulacra 3 but the ending felt a little flat and quite a fumble for the series, i really hope they do better next time but again still was enjoyable just wish it was better.
Whats up with these small self contanied horror games to get milked to death and murdered out of their identity? first Corpse Party now this, Simulacra 3 is a soulless re attempt of making another found footage horror title with its immersive experience Except it isnt, immersion is compelety gone as apps like Jabbr or Kimera are mentioned but cannot be used or interacted with, for the sake of cleaning up the gameplay both apps are merged in Atlas and only neccesary aps are traced or downloaded as opposed to previous games that restores whatever was lost instead of inventing new ♥♥♥♥ Mechanics are same as the second game with only 2 new additions, the connection puzzles that you only solve two of and a literal copy of fnaf and not even one of the good games, yes lets lure a supernatural ghost into a different room with a camera using a sound couse we know how fun fnaf 3 was Concept of simulacras are also assasinated to point of no return, simulacras were digital ghosts they possesed apps based on attention, first game possesed Spark (game's Tinder) becouse people seeked relationships there, second game posssed Kimera (game's Instagram) becouse people crossed every line imagineable to be famous so what does the third game do? Well simulacra possesed a FOLKLORE LEGEND yes a FOLKLORE LEGEND not an app even though its a digital ghost through a DRAWN MURAL, you cannot make this ♥♥♥♥ up, no impersonating a profile no suspicious service NO NONONO, someone at the town summoned a LITERAL GHOST WITH A MURAL and thats somehow a simulacra and SOMEHOW can be stopped by power of technology despite having nothing to do with it, only good that came from this story was that its acting, its the best in the franchise so atleast they had enough money to hire better actors gameplay wise its also dull, in first 2 games puzzles were pretty easy and I like the attempt of making them harder but they did it the wrong way, problem wasnt that the answer was easy to get, problem was that every puzzle played the same, second game did it the best as missing stuff was fairly easy, third games puzzles are all mandatory just like first game but they are now so ridiclously subtle that it feels weirdly on purpose like Im meant to waste time here, especially the physcic puzzle that didnt register my clicks Overall Simulacra 3 is just a blatant cashgrab, what was once a immersive self contained found footage horror is now a folklore ghost story with an iphone and combine that with a dry gameplay and butchered immersion there is no reason to play this game skip this one, its not worth it
Sıkıcı bir hikayesi var şahsen ben beğenmedim sadece puzzle bulup çözmek neyin ne olduğunu bulmak öğrenmek falan yani 1-2 oyunları daha iyi diyorum hiç değilse 1. oyun o gerilimi korkuyu veriyor 2. zaten 1in bir farklısı 3 hiç beğenmedim berbat ötesi almayı düşünen varsa bu oyunu eğer çok istiyorsanız indirimdeyken alın tam parasını vermeyin haketmiyor.
It's not a terrible game, but compared to the first two, it feels like a step backward. [list] [*][spoiler]Maybe I'll change my mind after playing the whole game.[/spoiler] [/list]
After comparing the game across 21 categories, I ended up giving SIMULACRA 3 a final score of 4.8/10.
WHY ALL THE HATE????
Должен сказать довольна не плоха, но эта уже не та симулякра, конечно игра немного начала дегродировать во второй, но и эта часть не плохо, хоть и душновата и иногда непонятно 6.5/10
This game could have been an email. In all seriousness, the Simulacra antagonists having been getting worse and worse. I miss when they were interesting and complex characters rather than evil green screens. The Atlas system is cool tho.
After waiting so long I finally got around to playing this and I can say, the reviews I saw when this first released lied to me. I thought I would hate it but I actually had some fun and got attached to some of the character. I really liked the characters, their stories, and even the town's story. I fell in love with Stone Creek. I did get what I presume to be the best ending and I wouldn't have it any other way (other than maybe 100%ing in the future). The graphics/effects aren't great at times, the dialogue can be a bit flat or weird, some puzzles are a bit annoying, there are a few typos (however knowing how I type I feel that adds to the immersion), and I did experience one crash from staying tabbed out for too long. I can see why some people don't like the game, but just like Stone Creek the game has flaws and charms and I can appreciate it for what it is. The story to me is quite beautiful, while it doesn't have an as Impactful twist that Simulacra 1 does (nor as good horror or effects) I thought the characters and story were much better than Simulacra 2, although I wish there was more connection to those games than just a passing mention. this also could have been a bug but the epilogue and credits didn't have any music but I feel it also gave me a bit of nice silence to reflect on everything. overall, I think the game is worth a try.
