Это было бы интересно, если бы не: - Видео можно было бы свободно перематывать, а не используя систему перемотки будто мы смотрим видео кассету. У нас электронная запись, где свободно нельзя каждый отрывок просмотреть. - При таком поиске, вообще-то, существуют внутренние хранилища со всеми видео-данными, и можно просмотреть всю галерею, а не тыкаться в каждое видео. - Если не брать в расчёт предыдущий вариант. Почему при совпадении слов, находит видео на допустим 7 минут 20 секунд, фраза допустим "пересохло во рту", находит данную запись, эта фраза звучит на отрывке в 7 минут 10 секунд, когда вся запись 7 минут 20 секунд, НОООО нельзя просмотреть всю запись, а лишь этот отрывок ПОСЛЕ совпадения по поиску. Что за чушь! (Надеюсь понятно получилось объяснить). - Возвращаясь к прошлому пункту. Какого... много записей по 7 минут, на которых часто не происходит НИЧЕГО. Соглашусь с обзором: Это очень странная игра, и смешанные оценки у нее не просто так. По началу тебя захватывает, ищешь ключевые слова, пишешь в блокнотик всякие даты события, пытаешься связать историю. Через пару часов игра откровенно начинает надоедать, последние полчаса я просто подсматривала какие ещё слова можно поискать, чтобы открыть все видео. Самое обидное, что я видимо упустила смысл концовки, а их там вроде как несколько, и я даже не понимаю в чем их концепция. Может если игра была менее затянута, я бы не упустила цель игры вообще. Была бы оценка средняя, поставила бы, но в целом скорее негативная. По скидке можно взять, если любите детективы, но тут довольно быстро становится скучно.
I really enjoyed her story so i thought i'd give this game a shot too despite all the negative reviews. while yes, it is annoying that the clips are on average 5 minutes long, compared to 15 seconds in her story, what's different about this game is that you have a limited amount of time to "solve the mystery", so the clips being that long and not having time to check everything is also an interesting experience and it only took me 3.5 hours to beat so its not that much longer than her story. Some things I really didn't like about this game though is how linear it is. It felt like I was watching a movie rather than actually investigating something. The lack of a mystery also played a huge role in this. There are no clues to try and solve a mystery, you are just trying to find keywords so you can watch the next video,. The game ends once you watch the final video chronologically. Also, those scenes that play during the credits felt insanely dumb I don't think this game deserves all these bad reviews but her story is a million times better. I'm honestly surprised it was made by the same director because it feels like he missed the whole point of his other game.
é um daqueles jogos que ficam numa região estranha entre videogame, filme interativo e investigação particular. Em vez de andar por cenários, conversar com personagens ou resolver quebra-cabeças tradicionais, passamos praticamente toda a experiência diante de um computador, pesquisando palavras em um banco de vídeos roubados. Cada pesquisa apresenta trechos de conversas envolvendo quatro pessoas cujas vidas estão ligadas por mentiras, relacionamentos complicados e uma investigação policial. O jogo não entrega os acontecimentos em ordem. Cabe ao jogador observar nomes, lugares e frases importantes para encontrar novos vídeos e montar mentalmente o que realmente aconteceu. No começo, essa proposta funciona muito bem. Existe uma sensação genuína de estar mexendo em arquivos que não deveriam ser vistos. Quando um personagem menciona uma palavra suspeita e a pesquisa leva a uma gravação reveladora, é difícil não abrir imediatamente outro vídeo. A curiosidade vira o principal combustível da experiência. As atuações também ajudam bastante. Os personagens parecem naturais, desconfortáveis e contraditórios, como pessoas reais tentando esconder partes da própria vida. Como vemos apenas um lado de muitas chamadas, precisamos interpretar silêncios, expressões e mudanças de comportamento para imaginar o que está sendo dito do outro lado. Essa escolha, entretanto, também causa o maior problema do jogo. Existem vídeos nos quais passamos bastante tempo vendo alguém apenas ouvir a outra pessoa. Isso pode criar intimidade e tensão, mas também deixa a experiência cansativa. Rebobinar gravações, procurar a outra metade das conversas e assistir a longos períodos de silêncio começa a quebrar o ritmo. Outro ponto que pode incomodar é a falta de uma direção clara. O jogador pode descobrir momentos importantes muito cedo, perder vídeos relevantes ou chegar ao encerramento ainda sem compreender completamente algumas relações. Isso faz parte da narrativa não linear, mas também pode transmitir a sensação de que a investigação terminou antes de realmente chegarmos a uma conclusão. consegue algo interessante: faz o jogador participar da construção da história. Não estamos apenas assistindo aos acontecimentos, mas escolhendo quais palavras pesquisar, quais pessoas acompanhar e quais versões dos fatos merecem confiança. Cada jogador pode montar o quebra-cabeça de uma maneira diferente. Não é um título indicado para quem procura ação ou mecânicas variadas. Quase tudo se resume a digitar palavras, assistir às gravações e anotar pistas. Para quem gosta de investigação, cinema interativo e histórias contadas aos poucos, porém, existe uma experiência bastante envolvente. tem uma ideia excelente, boas atuações e uma atmosfera voyeurística que combina perfeitamente com sua história. O sistema de pesquisa transforma palavras aparentemente comuns em pistas importantes e proporciona ótimos momentos de descoberta. Ao mesmo tempo, a lentidão dos vídeos, os longos silêncios e a navegação pouco prática tornam a experiência mais cansativa do que deveria. É um jogo interessante e ousado, mas que exige paciência e disposição para montar uma narrativa fragmentada e se manter afim de jogar até obter todos finais. Nota: 7,5/10**
The story and acting are pretty good. That is the only good thing I have to say about this "game". Playing this thing is very annoying. I'd suggest just using a guide and looking up the keywords and bookmarking videos. Then just watch them in order. The reason for this is because each video has to be manually rewinded like a vhs tape and some of them start in the middle. This is tedious for no reason. Also stupid that you can't have both sides of conversations play at the same time. Watch 1 side of an 8 minute conversation and then watch the same thing as the other side. You can only hear one side each time. It is really dumb and doesn't add anything to the story. Just make a movie. As a "game" this sucks and anyone who could possibly be interested in something like this will find it too annoying.
Sooooo boring and tedious, skip this one and play Her Story and Immortality instead </3
Well, this game is exceptionally well-designed in terms of the acting, realism, and the very precise writing that's necessary to ensure the player uncovers the story gradually but reliably, but it's quite poorly designed in regard to the actual user experience. The worst part is that each clip is only one side of a conversation, so you have long stretches of time where the character is just staring silently at the camera. Some of the clips are pretty meaningless, as well. You can fast-forward through the videos, but if you try to grab your note app to write down a keyword, you lose your spot in the video, which is really annoying. Also, a keyword will take you to the precise part of the clip where that word is used, which necessitates rewinding through sometimes several minutes of footage to see the entire thing. So, I think LESS realism would have actually been optimal here. But, well, it's an interesting experience, and the story is interesting.
A poor follow-up to Her Story, which even with some flaws, is a great game. A bigger budget, more complex story, and higher profile actors don't have the game from having an overall weak story. Most importantly - gameplay loop goes from super quick and engaging in Her Story to super awkward with looooong moments of silence and dumb facial expressions as your watching basically half of a conversation. Only buy it if it's on deep discount
Интересно почувствовать себя неким детективом, ковыряясь в видосиках, цепляясь за определённые словеса, и выстраивая логику. Мне игра понравилась. Если умеешь вникать, сидеть на жопе ровно, внимателен и обладаешь чуйкой и воображением - тебе понравится!) Но!!! Сам сюжет игры и «вскрытие» истины мне не понравились… Чисто сам процесс, вот.
Her Story and especially Immortality are much more interesting Give this one a miss
after starting it and having no clue shortly followed by finishing the game i would say i enjoyed it. it sucks you in and the progress is subtle but enough to make you want to keep digging.
