12/12/2005 异域惊魂曲·失落的永恒【by 希俊恩】
A great game to remember, not only because of its beauty in magic display, but on a epical story it relates to everyone who plays it.
Nameless, the hero of the game, used to be a great warrior, a significant wizard, a humble thief, an ordinary person just like everyone else. He fought against the Godess of Pain. And finally ended up in her great power. In order to build a fort through which no one could break, he asked his lover Ravel to cast the spell on him----immortality, with which, he could break through the flaws of mortality and enter the very fort which only the immortal could get in. He betrayed Ravel, and his other lover Dianarra, who is of prediction of the future. Blood war, one for the gods to balance the given world and keep the equilibrium of benefitial desire. Godess of Pain, defeat all the other gods and trapped all her opponents into her labyrinth, which has gates on every clock markers. Sigil was built, a central transition of the universes. Pain found Nameless, and sentenced her punishment of losing memory each time he revived from his death. Nameless, with the curse of Pain, revived for the last time on the stone bed of mortuary. A bodyless skeleton turned out to be his mate. They started their journey, with secrets of memory gradually revealed. More people joined. The apprentice of nameless, whose main aim of joining is revenge; a retired warrior, who kept a dreadful promise to follow the hero...Gradually Nameless found out he is not nameless, the reason why he forgot his name on purpose was to get rid of the black shadows that follow the name everywhere and tried to bring the name to permenent hazard together with the owner of it. You can be of justice, evil, chaos what so ever. Dianarra is waiting in the mortuary all the time praying for your good, but she will never know the one she loves is not the one who loves her. Ravel turns into different shapes in Sigil to try her best to help you out. And finally met Nameless in her trapping labyrinth and killed herself with your weapon when she found out every wish for love is merely a mirage, after the final kiss shi has expected for decades. Finally you broke into the fort of Regret, and met the origin of all sins, the precedent Nameless,Superior, who tried everything to destroy the marks and journals which might have any chance of arouse your memory, after which he himself will become not only immortal but stronger than Pain. Nameless killed Superior, and set his destiny into the Blood War, in which at least he believe, he can right the wrongs,with his blood, his precedent souls has done to the world. P.S.: What can change the nature of a man, what can turn the dirty evil Ravel into an angel protecting Nameless forever even after her death, what can make Dianarra sacrifice her life even though she knew the truth of betrayal to let her lover into Regret fort? Love it is. Not a simple game attacting people with magnificent display, though it is truly magnificent. Not a game which can satisfy players with the happiness of killing, but a game containing loads of philosophical factors, a game which makes you really sit down and think: What can change the nature of man, what is life, what is everything... To continue: I've finally played to the end of the game, and found out everthing including the real name of Nameless, and all the fore-fleshes of his. I finally stood in front of the maker of all the tragedies, and learn every single crime I've convicted. It's time for the final sentence. I pursuaded Death to merge with me. And we were sent to the Blood War to pay back the guilt. In the fort of Regret, seeing the dead body of my friends, I, again, asked Death: "what can change the nature of a man?" "No one, including Torment Lady, can answer that question!" "After all the pain and sorrow I've been through with my friends, I may justifiably answer it. Love, a given divinity can change the nature of men. Love can turn a evil witch into a caring woman who can show her beauty to the one she love. Love can pull back the organisation of Curst from Chaos. Love can put my friends with me and fight through everything with their lives. And Love can accompany me here till I see you and my destiny." After reviving my friends. I fell down to the lower ground from Regret. When I woke up, I saw mountains of monsters and soldiers fighting. I knew that was my destiny, my chance to redeem everything I've done. I picked up an ax and went to the battle field. With the words of my firends echo in my mind: "Your path is my path." "I'll go wherever you go, because of my love." "I'm your fighter, chief." "I'll find you in the Blood War, though I don't know where you are. But I'm sure we'll all find you with the help of destiny, just like it helped you to find us." "Time is not your enemy, Forever is." -- The End -- 【转载】
老实说,这不是一款爱情游戏,爱情和它简直不沾边,至多只是绵羊身上的一撮毛,通长意义的恋爱游戏FANS简直一辈子不会去碰它,但是就是那么一点爱情,足可以叫其他游戏黯淡失色。异域镇魂曲是一部非常复杂的游戏,它糅合了许多哲学和神学的概念:生死,救赎,本质,唯心,信仰,多元宇宙……,首先它的世界就不是我们通常意义的世界,它发生在多元宇宙(也可以理解为我们的物质宇宙,和天堂地狱这些神学世界的组合)的中心——法印城,在这里到处都是把你从这个世界“biu”地甩到另一世界的传送门,当然也有一些形形色色的古怪家伙,天使啦,恶魔啦,半人羊啦,当然还有最最普通的人类和满奇幻世界乱窜的精灵矮人…………正当这帮家伙在街上各忙各的时候,我们的主角晕忽忽从停尸房的铁床上爬起来,把他姓啥叫啥忘得一干二净,幸好旁边有个会飞的骷髅头一口一个大哥靠了过来…… 原来我们的主角是一个体质奇异的怪物,他不会真正的死亡,至多只是小晕一会儿,但是每次“复活”他都会丢掉那么点记忆,而且他已经死了那么多次,已经记不起他的名字了……经过了无数的冒险主角大体知道他的身世,它原来是法印城一个相当著名的咨询人,但是他犯下了一个大错,足以破坏多元宇宙的平衡使它灭亡。主角只有求助一个夜巫将他变成不死之身,但是仪式出现了错误,主角的肉体虽然不死,但是他的凡人性与他剥离,导致了他记忆的消失。离开的凡人性——现在他叫超凡者——不齿于主角的行为,独自居住于一个与世隔绝叫“悔恨要塞”的地方。于是主角打听到进入方法后回到醒来时的床前,撕下了自己的一张皮写了忏悔书。在悔恨要塞中,不管如何都会与超凡者做个了断,得到真正的死亡。 这个游戏因为它的思想深度而得到了玩过它的人的一致赞扬,被誉为游戏艺术化的真正代表,但是对于那些日式恋爱游戏的爱好者来说,它颓废阴暗的美工简直就是美式游戏邋遢肮脏画面的典型。但是你不能不佩服这帮美国人塑造角色的能力,拿最终幻想和它比,就像拿琼瑶小说和《安娜。卡特林娜》比一样。主角在游戏中有两位同伴,吸精夜魔失宠和人与恶魔的混血儿阿娜,她们自愿跟着主角冒险,为他吃了不少苦。但是今天我不说她们的故事,我更想提提主角的两个前世情人,为爱情受伤的灵魂戴娜拉和将你变成不死身的夜巫——不死者。戴娜拉拥有透视未来的能力,主角的一个为了利用她的能力而博取了她的爱情,那个前身也成功地进入了悔恨要塞。在要塞前,他唆使戴娜拉自杀,让戴娜拉的灵魂指引他来看穿整个要塞的迷宫。至于戴娜拉有没有看穿前身的用意,游戏里没有说——因为游戏是站在无名氏的角度回忆的,但是从游戏的叙述看无论如何戴娜拉都愿意为爱人牺牲生命。在她死后,戴娜拉的灵魂仍然挂念着主角,主角在一开始的停尸房就可以遇见她。 戴娜拉的声音交织着深深的怨恨和同样强烈的爱意,但是如果主角好言以待,她仍然愿意帮助主角,向他透露了一些身世,最后主角进入悔恨要塞时前来警告的也是她,如果游戏失败——这个游戏的失败不是主角的死亡,而是关键线索的丢失——戴娜拉德的灵魂还是默默站在主角的后面,哪怕此时主角已经将她忘得一干二净。与愿意为了爱情粉身碎骨的戴娜拉不同,夜巫是一个十恶不赦的人,对于前往求助的人,她都会问:“什么才能改变一个人的本质?”没有一个人符合她的心意,于是所有人都被杀了,但是当主角求助的时候,任何答案都不重要,她将无条件的为主角服务——因为她爱上了主角。或许爱情不是真正的解答,真正的谜底在于她已经找到了属于她自己的答案。至少爱情改变了她的一部分本质,在她那丑恶扭曲的心灵宛如沙漠的心灵上开出一朵原属于温室的鲜花。此后夜巫向法印城的统治者——痛苦女士——挑战失败,被拘禁于一个小小的位面中。但是她在法印城的分身依然竭尽所能帮助主角,在最后,他们又重逢了,这个丑陋的老太婆仿佛又变成当日的美丽女子,甚至与失宠和阿娜争风吃醋。在向主角透露了他们的故事后,她心愿已了,在向主角点明去路后借无名氏之手杀死了自己。异域是一个探求信仰的游戏,爱情也是信仰的一个重要部分,它能改变人也能毁掉人,就像无名氏最后与超凡者的对话:是吗?我见过信仰移动城市,使一个人脱离死亡,将邪恶女巫的心转变为仁慈。这整个要塞都是有信仰构筑的。信仰诅咒了一个女人,她的心紧系于希望,希望一个不爱她的人爱她。信仰让一个人追寻不朽,他成功了。而且它让一个鬼魂以为自己不只是我的一部分。
---------- “死亡”的主题在这里得到了升华,看看周围的僵尸、骷髅,看看那些尸体收集者、尸体搬运工,尽管阴沉,却绝不像《生化危机》那样叫人恐惧、令人恶心,他们值得你同情,值得你爱怜,因为他们有自己的人格,有自己的故事,而你,也是他们中的一员。再看看你的同伴异域惊魂曲——不停唠叨的Morte,纪律严明的Dakkon,焚心似火的Ignus,与Grace的探讨信念,与Annah的浪漫时光……游戏中的每个人(物)都有着一段不同寻常的经历。 没有太多的战斗,没有太多的砍杀,走动、交谈、阅读、思考,《异域镇魂曲》更像是一部基于游戏的小说,而非基于小说的游戏。不,它并不是游戏,而是一次人生的体验,貌似荒诞的人物和对话中包含着多少复杂真实的情感和富于哲理的思考。你在游戏中需要解决的并非无聊的谜题或难缠的敌人,而是一些其它的东西,一些埋藏于游戏中的隐喻、象征。是什么使你成为人类的一员?是什么使你获得了新生?是什么改变着我们每一个人的心灵?我在《异域镇魂曲》中曾不止一次地流下激动的泪水,是的,还没有哪款游戏能带给我如此深刻的感动。 我想写一篇完整的关于《异域镇魂曲》的评论,可我无能为力,尽管我已经在“死亡”中“沉思”了五十多个小时。以下是《异域镇魂曲》最初的一段场景,这种凄丽之美比太空中Rinoa孤独的背影更教我感动,而且,那段突如其来、感人至深的旋律也令我久久难忘…… 在游戏的最初,我遇见一位掌管“生死簿”的长者,他告诉我在一楼大厅中有一位曾经是自己的旅伴的人,在代替我承受着无尽的痛苦。于是,我来到一楼大厅异域惊魂曲—— 你看见一位幽灵站在你的面前,她的美丽令人心动。她的双臂交织在胸前,眼帘轻轻地垂下。她有一头长长的飘逸的秀发,她的长裙仿佛受到一阵无形的风的吹拂,微微地颤动着。当你注视她的时候,她似乎被什么刺痛了,你发现她的眼帘在轻微地闪动……
她缓缓地睁开双眼,迷惘地眨了一会儿,仿佛无法确定自己此刻身在何处。她静静地环顾四周,然后将目光停留在你的身上。她安详的脸庞突然扭曲了起来。“你!究竟是什么把你带到了这里?!你是不是想好好欣赏一下自己的杰作,欣赏一下自己带给别人的巨大的痛苦?即便在死亡中我也无法摆脱你的阴影……” 她的声音突然低了下来,她啜泣着说道:“……我的爱人!” 我:“爱人?难道我认识你?” 这位美丽而忧伤的幽灵作了一个乞求的手势。“难道那些思想的窃贼又一次把我的名字从你的记忆中抹去了吗?你真的记不起我了吗?我的爱人?”她伸开她的双臂,“仔细想一想……” 她充满期待的声音再次化为了失望异域惊魂曲——“‘Deionarra’这个名字是不是能够唤起你的一丝丝记忆?” 我:“抱歉,我的记忆已经离我而去了。” Deionarra:“这正是我所担心的。我真的永远失去了你……曾经给你带来的种种不便,你在获得记忆后终于有理由彻底地将我抛弃。” 我:“不便?抛弃你?可我并不认识你……我一点也记不起来了。告诉我……你是谁?你知道我的哪些事情?” Deionarra:“你是被祝福和被诅咒者,我的爱人。你是我一直深爱着的人。” 我:“被祝福和被诅咒者?什么意思?” Deionarra:“被诅咒?我的爱人。看看你自己吧。” 她指了指你,说道:“死亡抛弃了你,你的记忆也离你而去。难道你没有认真地想过这一切究竟是为了什么吗?” …… 我:“似乎有什么东西在刺痛着我的记忆……请告诉我更多的事情,或许你的话语可以照亮我脑中的阴影,Deionarra。” Deionarra:“你终于肯怜悯我了!我的爱人,即便死亡也无法将你从我的心中驱走。难道你没有看见吗?你的记忆一定能恢复!告诉我,我该怎样帮助你,我一定会尽力去做!”
Deionarra:“你为什么要问Deionarra这样的问题?如果你告诉她你正在寻找一条离开这里的出路的话,她会觉得你将要弃她而去……” 我:“Deionarra,我的处境十分危险。你能指引我前往一个更安全的地方吗?我有机会一定会回来看你。” “危险?”Deionarra的神情紧张了起来,“当然,我的爱人,我一定会尽我所有的力量帮助你离开这里的……” 她轻轻地闭上了眼睛,一阵无形的风掠过她的身体,吹拂着她的秀发。过了一会儿,风止住了,她缓缓地睁开双眼。“是的,也许有一条出路。” …… 我:“好的,Deionarra,我要走了。我会回来看你的。” Deionarra:“等一等……我的爱人,在与你一同度过的日子里我学到了许多东西,你所失去的也正是我所得到的……” 我:“告诉我,你在黑暗中发现了什么?” Deionarra:“在告诉你之前,我希望你能立下誓言,发誓你会回来,回来拯救我,让我永远陪伴在你的身边。” 我立下誓言:“我发誓,我会想办法回来救你,让你永远守护在我的身边。” …… 我:“再见,Deionarra。” Deionarra:“我将守候在这里,这死亡的大厅之中,我的爱人……” 她微笑着,微笑中隐藏着无尽的悲哀。她闭上双眼,在一阵无形的微风中渐渐消逝…… Commenti (3)Per aggiungere un commento, accedi con il tuo Windows Live ID (se utilizzi Hotmail, Messenger o Xbox LIVE possiedi già un Windows Live ID).
