The Talos Principle

정말 잘 만든 명작 퍼즐 게임이지만, 한국어 번역이 너무 아쉬운 게임. 24년에 완벽한 번역으로 리마스터된 재각성 버전으로 플레이하는 것을 강력 추천.

I thoroughly enjoyed this game—it stands out as a masterpiece that fully satisfied me. The difficulty is well-balanced across every section, despite when collecting stars and tackling World 1 in the DLC. Overall, this is my top recommended game and is undoubtedly better than Assassin's Creed: Unity. By comparison, ACU feels thoroughly disappointing and seems rushed by its douche bag publisher.

[h2]Puzzles[/h2] They start slow (as usual) and get more and more difficult in a nice pace. There is a significant number of puzzles as far as I can tell (I estimate around 90 if the locked content follows the same pattern as the one I already unlocked). [h2]Storyline[/h2] It is an interesting premise that makes you think about somewhat deep topics. It really surprised me how the game is constructed and how they chose to let the player interact with the story. [spoiler]All hail CMD!![/spoiler] [h2]Graphics[/h2] To be expected for this type of game (and release year). I recommend you adjust your brightness/contrast/saturation/etc before you start playing as the game might be a bit too bright. Overall, great game that I recommend to all puzzle games enjoyers.

Good game

This game seemed to trigger my motion sickness. Did not enjoy the puzzles enough to play.

Unpopular opinion, but the philosophical fumbling in this game is not saying anything interesting. As a result the game is really pretentious and uninteresting. The puzzles are engaging for a while, but in themselves do not keep me as a player engaged for long enough. I strongly dislike the inclusion of mostly out of context passages framed as musings from real works which all contribute in producing a veneer of profundity which is simply just intellectual posturing. The Talos Principle does not make a sound or coherent philosophical argument in doing so, therefore does not have anything to say on its own merit. This is reflected in the entire aesthetic of the game: a grouping of ruined, empty shells of buildings and structures that no longer indicate their purpose due to being divorced from their original cultural context. A culture that no longer exists and pretends to be available for us the player to uncover. I would take a step further here and state that there was never any purpose to these art assets, they were simply added because they fit the art direction of the game. There is no underlying world to be uncovered or intriguing lore in The Talos Principle. There is no underlying philosophical merit either, just a collection of quotes ripped from their context and meaning in order to fit a feeling or vibe. The idea of man made or artificial sentience has been exhausted in recent time in popular media and the Talos Principle is a tired retreading of the same affirmative claim, which in itself is not even controversial. It is not an interesting question to ask if the answer provided does not lead to any further meaningful argument or metaphysical insight, the Talos Principle simply makes no philosophical or artistic contribution to the subject matter it concerns itself with. The game just claims to affirm its own arguments posed and believes this enough to enrapture a player in wonder about the implications of this affirmation. If you like the puzzles more than me then you will have a fun time I guess.

Честно говоря, давно с таким интересом не залипал в компьютерную игру. Готов ли я её посоветовать? Да. Но нужно быть готовым к тому, что игра очень неторопливая и размеренная. Здесь нет захватывающих полётов через порталы или юмора, построенного на пассивной агрессии и сарказме. Зато есть море философии и рефлексии. Мне лично зашло, но кому-то может показаться тягомотиной. Из минусов для себя пока отметил только мелкий шрифт в компьютерах. Глаза от него быстро устают. Плюсы: Очень интересные пространственные головоломки, над которыми действительно надо подумать; Приятная графика; Красивая спокойная музыка.
