This War of Mine

In This War Of Mine you do not play as an elite soldier, rather a group of civilians trying to survive in a besieged city; struggling with lack of food, medicine and constant danger from snipers and hostile scavengers. The game provides an experience of war seen from an entirely new angle.

“Game pacing is slow but pretty fun”
看攻略通关了,游戏节奏很慢,挺好玩的,2024年新dlc会捐赠乌克兰,乌克兰有美欧输血,加沙没有,加沙儿童和婴儿被以色列肆意蹂躏,不如帮助加沙难民,加沙难民的生存环境比游戏里还要惨烈。 I finished the game with a walkthrough. The pacing is slow, but it's pretty fun. The 2024 new DLC will donate to Ukraine. Ukraine gets blood transfusions from the US and Europe, but Gaza doesn’t. Children and infants in Gaza are being trampled upon by Israel at will. It would be better to help the refugees in Gaza — their living conditions are even more brutal than in the game.

如果说有哪一款游戏,会在你点下“开始”之前就已经把期待值压低到一个不舒服的位置,那《This War of Mine》一定算一款。 它不欢迎你,也不试图取悦你,更不会在开场就给你任何“玩起来会很爽”的承诺。相反,它几乎是在一开始就明确告诉你:你来这里,不是为了胜利。 这也是为什么,很多老玩家会把它记成一款“很难再玩第二遍”的游戏。 不是因为不好,而是因为它太清楚自己要让你承受什么。 从玩法层面看,《This War of Mine》并不复杂。 白天修补避难所、制作工具、分配体力; 夜晚外出搜刮资源,冒着被狙击、被发现、被抢劫的风险。 角色需要吃喝、需要睡眠、需要药物,受伤会感染,心情会崩溃。 如果只把这些机制拆出来看,它甚至有点“朴素”。 但问题在于——这些系统从来不是为了让你建立成就感而存在的。 它们存在的唯一目的,是不断向你提出选择。 不是“生存游戏”,而是“选择游戏” 很多生存类游戏的核心乐趣,在于资源管理与效率最大化。 而《This War of Mine》里,资源管理只是一层表皮。 真正折磨人的,是你必须在有限信息下不断做出道德选择。 要不要从老人家里偷东西? 要不要拒绝陌生人的求助? 要不要把仅剩的药留给重伤的人,还是给那个已经情绪崩溃、再不治疗就会自残的同伴? 游戏并不会跳出来告诉你哪个选择是“正确”的。 甚至很多时候,你直到很久之后,才会意识到某个决定的后果。 这不

“bugs, freezes, crashes, character deaths from technical issues” (19)
Очень гнетущая, но антивоенный посыл правильный. + Тяжёлая психологическая драма; + Атмосферные локации; + Мрачная графика. - Бывают баги, залипания, у кого-то даже вылеты. Если один из персонажей умер из-за этого - продолжайте без него или начинайте с начала; - Дурацкое управление и неочевидная реакция на Ваши действия. Персонаж умер - продолжайте так или всё сначала; - Нет сохранений. Отвлёкся, позвонили, дрогнула рука - персонаж умер - терпите или всё сначала. Игра для очень морально устойчивых или для любителей пострадать, причём в негативном смысле. Да и современные реалии войны показываю
