Truer than You

This game had a bigger effect on me than any other in a while. And on the first playthrough the effect wasn't even necessarily positive, but I kept playing because this just had so much power. And on later playthroughs the effect has been increasingly positive. The game puts you in many rather uncomfortable or even unethical situations, and that is by design, and also a really good thing. The romance routes work a lot better if you are (at least open to being fictionally) polyamorous. They are pretty alright. It's clever, it's engaging, it's powerful. If you can take being uncomfortable, this is a strong recommendation.

A thought-provoking game about the roles we play in society. Beautiful characters, with a nice blend of 90's aesthetics and pastel colors. Definitely recommended!

感谢双语鉴赏组提供的这次关于《真实之上 Truer than You》评测的机会。 《真实之上 Truer than You》一部很有意思的视觉小说，游戏目前暂不支持中文，想要体验玩家可以先试玩一下游戏demo在做考虑。 一个关于生命中出现的爱，失去，和迷茫的游戏。 我们的主人公凛，为了逃避过去的旅途的上，在一个陌生的城市中，发现了一家名为“真实之上”一家专注于为真实情景出租演员的公司，从此开始了新的生活，当然作为一家真实情况出租的演员公司，我们也必须遵守公司的规定！ “你不可以与客户有私人关系，并且需要在不违反公司准则或暴露自己的情况下完成所有工作。” 我们所需要的做的便是通过游戏中和各种人物的对话，然后选择你认为合适选项，从而获得最高的评分，但是作为演员守则最重要的的一点就是，你在全身心扮演角色的同时，切记，这只是你扮演角色之一，不要入戏太深！ 《真实之上》也是通过这种方式，让我们代入他人的视角体验到与各种人际交往的真实状态和让我们有机会不同社会角色下体验不一样的故事，并且游戏拥有大量的选项可供玩家选择还是值得一试，但是目前不支持简体中文，还是十分可惜的，但是制作组也在回应我们原因，正如制作组说的一样，“如果你们愿意支持我们，请将游戏加入愿望单——愿望单数量越多，我们就越有机会获得翻译资金——一旦我们有能力，我们一定会尽快完成翻译！” 大家可以期待一波！ [code]双语评测，认准我们： [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/35263058-Bilingual-Curator/]双语评测[/url] Make Chinese and English speaker feel at home： [url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/35263058-Bilingual-Curator/]Bilingual Curator[/url][/code]

Intressanta karaktärer och fin grafik. Uppskattar spel där ens val har betydelse för spelets gång =)

This is an astonishing game! I very much enjoyed my time being Rin, and through Rin being various other folks. I wasn't sure what to expect from this game, but it gripped me, and kept me entranced by the lives I saw and experienced. I felt a lot, in ways which surprised me. I've only played through once, but I feel I missed a lot by the choices I made, so I look forward to plunging into it in other ways to experience more, and maybe to hope more. Incidentally, this game came out on the same day as a game I made myself, which is why I was convinced I'd find some kinship with this, which I saw as a fraternal twin to my (very different) game. This turned out to be more relevant than I could have expected. An excellent work, but I wish it had lasted another month.

I think the strength of this game is the setting and narrative. The story unfolds based on your choices and I really got invested in the world, thanks to the compelling artstyle and music. The game is perfect to enjoy at the evening in a cozy place wrapped in a blanket, I played it on Asus ROG Ally and it worked fine. Sometimes I wished I had more choices and in the end of the game some of the stories came to a close very quickly or didn't really get a conclusion. But I have have only played it through once and then playing as "myself". In the next playthrough I will explore some of the choices I didn't make and see how the game unfolds. I think it will benefit from more play throughs t to get more perspecitves on any given situation. Would recommend the game if you like story heavy games with choices like, Detroit Become Human, the Telltale games or similar but in this game choices is the base so it is a more focused experience. Wonderful to have a shorter game as well!

This game has you manage and balance your own social needs, your professional obligations and the expectations of your clients in a job that tests the limits of existential bad faith. As you get used to playing someone playing someone else, it starts challenging you by placing you in uncomfortable high-stakes situations where the choice between professional distance, authenticity and compassion could mean hurting or helping someone, and caring or not caring could mean hurting or helping you. The overall presentation is great. Pastel colored art with expressive and bold color choices for the characters, It's not just fixed portraits over backgrounds, but a lot of situation-specific illustrations that go a long way toward making sure that the narrative and visuals never feel out of sync. The music is beautiful, carefully neutral in tone where it should be, and emotionally loaded where it fits the narrative, especially at the end. The writing is not too wordy, though without compromise in terms of conveying sensation and emotion. The interactive choices are frequent (and brilliantly treats waiting to think or listen as a choice in itself), so it rarely felt like I was just watching something happen. I'm not a completionist, but with the apparent variety of options and mysteries to unravel, I'm looking forward to playing it again once I've let my first playthrough sink in.

如何做一个真实自己 在这个充斥着标准答案与成功模板的时代，做一个真实的自我，竟成了一种奢侈。我们被各种社会角色所定义孝顺的子女、优秀的员工、可靠的伴侣却在这些角色扮演中逐渐遗失了那个最本真的自己。真实自我并非与生俱来的状态，而是一场需要勇气与智慧的持续追寻。它意味着挣脱外界期待的枷锁，聆听内心微弱却坚定的声音，在混沌中辨认出属于自己的独特轮廓。 真实自我的第一重阻碍，来自我们对外界评价的过度依赖。古希腊哲学家第欧根尼白天提着灯笼"寻找真正的人"，讽刺的正是人们戴着面具生活的荒诞。现代社会更是将这种表演推向极致：社交媒体上精心修饰的生活片段，职场中刻意模仿的成功姿态，甚至家庭里扮演的"完美"角色，都在蚕食着我们的真实性。法国思想家卢梭在《忏悔录》中大胆暴露自己的阴暗面，这种勇气在今天看来尤为珍贵。当我们停止为他人眼中的形象而活，才能开始为真实的自己而活。解缚之道不在于彻底无视外界，而在于培养一种健康的自我价值感——知道自己的价值不取决于多少点赞或夸奖，而是源于对内在一致性的坚持。 认识真实自我需要直面内心的混沌与矛盾。心理学家荣格提出的"阴影理论"启示我们：那些被压抑、否认的自我部分，恰是构成完整人格的重要拼图。一个只展示阳光面的人，如同只有正午没有黄昏的世界，是不完整的。梵高在给弟弟提奥的信中写道："正常好比铺好的道路，走起来舒服但长不出花朵。"他的疯狂与天才同样真实，同样构成了他震撼人心的艺术。认识自我是一场没有地图的探险，需要我们勇敢走入内心的迷宫，与每一个不完美的自己对话。这种对话或许痛苦，却是抵达真实的必经之路。 保持真实自我需要日常生活中的持续实践。陶渊明"不为五斗米折腰"的选择，展现了中国文化中对气节的崇尚；而美国诗人惠特曼在《自我之歌》中宣称"我辽阔博大，我包罗万象"，则表达了西方对个体多元性的包容。无论东西方，真实自我都需要在具体情境中做出选择：是违心附和还是坦诚己见？是随波逐流还是坚持原则？这些微小却关键的抉择，如同涓涓细流，最终汇成我们生命的走向。建立真实的生活或许意味着放弃某些机会，却赢得了无可替代的内心安宁。 真实自我不是一次性的发现，而是终身的创作。如同雕塑家不断凿去多余的石料，我们也在时光中逐渐显露自己的本真模样。这个过程没有捷径，需要耐心、勇气与大量的自我宽容。当我们停止扮演他人期待的角色，生命反而展现出意想不到的丰富可能。一个真实的人或许不够完美，但那份真实本身，就是对抗世界浮华最有力的姿态。在这个鼓励一致性的时代，选择真实或许是最叛逆也最珍贵的活法。

一款很有意思的视觉小说游戏，玩家在游戏中将扮演“凛”，一位被公司雇佣来扮演各种真实情景中出现的不同角色，需要在和客户的对话中作出合适的选择来获得高评分。 本作的玩法和笔者之前玩过的《丑小鸭与文字祸》有些类似，选项不会像一般的视觉小说那样直接弹出来让玩家选择，需要在对话的过程中主动地去点击旁边可能会出现的选项，而无脑地一味点击屏幕就会视为“沉默”即没有做出任何举动。 本作的故事为，凛在试图逃离过去的旅途上，来到了一座陌生的城市，并且在一家名为“真实之上”（Truer than You）的公司开启了新的生活与工作，这是一家专注于为真实情景出租演员的公司。 玩家需要在不违反公司准则或暴露自己的情况下完成所有工作。做出不同的选择来引导各种状况，并通过对话来获得高评分。根据准则，你不可以与客户有私人关系。但在游戏过程中，玩家扮演的角色会逐渐与三位不同的角色建立更深层的联系，并渐渐发展到更深一步的关系……此时是坚持原则，还是顺从本心，就看玩家自己的选择了。 整体而言本作算是一部比较有新意的视觉小说了，画风也是比较清新独特的那一类，缺点是目前还没有中文，好在本作的英文文本也不是很难，游玩起来没有太大障碍。 [quote]关注鉴赏组：[url=https://store.steampowered.com/curator/45134494]浮生评测[/url] ←"浮生若梦，一鉴倾心，邀您共赏人间烟火" 加入Steam组：[url=https://steamcommunity.com/groups/LLFLLFF]浮生评测[/url]←“一起追寻'浮生若梦'般的游戏体验” 开始“浮生若梦”鉴赏组的奇幻之旅！[/quote]
