也不是故意要踩,是我个人到第八章为止,确实非常不喜欢XB2的剧情和演出方式,这里面也有人设和糟糕的游戏引导和灾难性的支线的锅,不过总体来说XB2应该就是个王道年番了,跟我理解的异度世界观的气质不太匹配,所以也不具体踩它了。主要说说XG好在哪里
其实最能代表XG故事基调和气质的就是这个主题歌:
Small Two Of Pieces
Run through the cold of the night
As passion burns in your heart
Ready to fight, a knife held close by your side
Like a proud wolf alone in the dark
With eyes that watch the world
And my name like a shadow
On the face of the moon
Broken mirror, a million shades of light
The old echo fades away
But just you and I
Can find the answer
And then, we can run to the end of the world
We can run to the end of the world
Cold fire clenched to my heart
In the blue of night
Torn by this pain, I paint your name in sound
And the girl of the dawn with eyes of blue, and angel wings
The songs of the season are her only crown
Broken mirror, a million shades of light
The old echo fades away
But just you and I
Can find the answer
And then, we can run to the end of the world
We can run to the end of the world
We met in the mist of morning
And parted deep in the night
Broken sword and shield, and tears that never fall
But run through the heart
Washed away by the darkest water
The world is peaceful and still
Broken mirror, a million shades of light
The old echo fades away
But just you and I
Can find the answer
And then, we can run to the end of the world
We can run to the end of the world
基本上这首歌把主线故事也讲的差不多了。两个人,四生四世的牵绊。这种轮回转世的故事其实也很范式,飞和艾莉俩人从一开始敌对到关系变好,后来发现是前几辈子的恋人,虽然套路,但故事节奏把握的很稳,也非常有代入感。这种叙事的重点在于前世的挣扎和今生记忆重塑,之前的不可得,与今生的打破命运循环,一方面立住了主题,另一方面把矛盾与世界观直接结合,两线推进非常容易打动人(FF8也好在这里,其实“爱”的主题说的是拉古纳他俩)。所以在这种叙事框架下,其实同伴的塑造是活跃气氛的加分项,弱一些影响也不大。而XG可贵的是,主角没有像现在二次元那样把马陌路,亚撒西,羁绊什么的天天挂在嘴边(根据《编剧的艺术》的理论,一个作品要呈现的核心主题和价值观,必须是靠观众的感受和发掘去呈现,但又绝对不能让主角亲口说出来,否则就落了下乘),但全篇的主题就是对命运——而非具体到神(XB2——老爹)或者教廷什么的——抗争,最终打破了几万年的循环,这是一种浪漫。
回到这首主题歌,歌手Joanne hogg把它演绎的出神入化,整首曲子一直用很轻缓的方式呈现,前期没有拉得很高,歌手嗓音中气十足,即使唱到副歌,也毫不用力。直到最后一小节
We met in the mist of morning
And parted deep in the night
Broken sword and shield, and tears that never fall
But run through the heart
压抑的感情在这里一口气释放,这是一句能让玩家直接破防的表达。
所以LZ问XG没有爆点,我说爆点有这一个地方就够了,可以让人记一辈子。 |
