    Trying to love this game, but I cant, it is so boring. The story is mediocre and the characters are uninteresting. Hugo is kinda annoying all the time. The whole game is just a walking simulator, I just can't find any interesting part that is memorable. Graphics are nice though.

    I think that this is truly a unique game and I would recommend that if you are a fan of this type of genre then I think you should give this game a try.

    Plague Tale: Innocence is an Action/Stealth/Adventure game that focuses mainly on 2 protagonists, Amicia and her little brother Hugo. The game takes place in the country of France, during the 14th century. A great war has broken out and on top of that a strange disease involving hordes of rabid mice trying to devour anything in their path.

    Plague Tale: Innocence is an Action/Stealth/Adventure game that focuses mainly on 2 protagonists, Amicia and her little brother Hugo. The game takes place in the country of France, during the 14th century. A great war has broken out and on top of that a strange disease involving hordes of rabid mice trying to devour anything in their path.
    The story focuses mainly on the 2 protagonists and especially Hugo who was born affected by an ancient curse. His sister Amicia along with him, start their journey with the hope of finding the cure. The chemistry between them is decent - there are some points in game where the dialogue can become a little bit cringe but it remains an honest effort. The plot manages to keep your interest along the way for sure.
    Regarding the game's structure and then its gameplay, Plague Tale: Innocence is quite simple. You have the story which progresses through small cut scenes each time - the cut scenes end, you enter the new chapter and from there on you proceed accordingly. The level design is straight forward since we are talking about a structure that is perhaps the most linear thing I have played in a single player game in recent years! In this one, you don't have 2 and 3 paths as we are used to have in the most modern games these days - but only 1. I would really like to have more variety when it comes to this matter but it is what it is.
    Now, as far as the variety of weapons and equipment, unfortunately the game shows its weaknesses there as well. The ONLY weapon during the entire game is a slingshot which has only a few upgrades to run with. For example: fire pellets, poison pellets etc. - you get the idea. Literally, there is nothing else to experience when it comes to combat or playstyle!
    This results to each new battle feel more and more poor or even monotonous as you keep progressing through the game. Sadly even until the last chapter, it does not change or add anything fresh to it.
    Technically, the game runs flawlessly. I played it on PC at 3k resolution with everything set to Ultra and apart from my FPS being consistently over 60 - I didn't see the slightest bit of stuttering. As for glitches and bugs, I encountered 2-3 points that required the well-known "load to last checkpoint" but beyond that, nothing else. The better the technical field, the better the graphics. Plague Tale: Innocence's graphics are really close to those of photorealism. I stopped to look at the scenery and textures so many times, i lost count. Simply stunning!
    Soundtrack wise the game doesn't have anything crazy but it works as it should, when it should. On the other hand the audio design and quality of the game is where it excels - in combination with its atmosphere, it's a chef's kiss.

    Overall, the game is good with decent characters and an interesting story to tell! For sure it has its weaknesses, it's not something revolutionary or something that will go down in history (not that it needs to be anything like that anyway) - but for the 8-10 hours it lasted, i had fun with it.

    In a word, Plague Tale is different. I knew after I read the synopsis of the game that I would enjoy it, and I was not disappointed. I'm a fan of story-driven adventures, so this one was another wonderful addition to the repertoire.

    In a word, Plague Tale is different. I knew after I read the synopsis of the game that I would enjoy it, and I was not disappointed. I'm a fan of story-driven adventures, so this one was another wonderful addition to the repertoire.

    Unlike other games, this game is unique as it focuses on a mechanic most games never really flesh out: companions. The majority of the game is a cooperative experience where you continually issue your companions commands to progress through the game. The game itself more or less holds your hand throughout the entire journey, but it still gives you just enough to think about so that it is not a total cakewalk.

    I recommend Plague Tale for people who enjoy stories, especially dark ones. If you are looking for action, you are not going to find it here. This game is a narrative experience, and it is by no means difficult. It is an interactive story, and emphasis is placed on such. To enhance your experience, change the voices to French and enable subtitles to add a bit of authenticity.

    Overall, the game is really only worth an 8/10, however, because of how pleased I was with the story and how it has left me desiring more, I've bumped up the score.

The combat was pretty fun (never played a game where using a slingshot felt so satisfying) but there weren't that many enemy varieties. The puzzles in my opinion was one of the worst aspects in this game, they just felt incredibly samey, tedious and barely requiring any thinking. The human AI was bad and very buggy in most parts while the Rat's AI was pretty good and fun to dick around with. The game is not that long but there isn't that good of a story to make you want to finish it. The Voice acting for Hugo and most of the other characters was pretty great but for the main heroine it was just pretty awful, the VA barely showed any emotion when some **** up **** were happening around her and she felt incredibly bland when speaking (almost like she was bored to be there) which ruined like a lot of scenes in the game.
    Overall it was an ok game but I would suggest getting it while it's on sale, there were also a decent amount of bugs that can make you restart to the last checkpoints (hell even at the start some of the characters were missing their arms lmao).

This game is a n example of excellent work with thoughts about gamers in almost all aspects.
    About minuses: Why the heck not to say something that can bring you closer? Always in films or books(well, in real life too, I suppose) characters foolishly ignore such moments and then become conflicts only because they didn't just tell each other very simple words... Another nonsense is that when enemies are nearby, the heroes speak in whispers. But this never works when there is a crowd of enemies between the heroes, and the whisper sounds loudly so that the player would hear everything. "Whispering for the whole World"... Many times I noticed that resources are not well placed(during many locations there was much more crystals than another more needed at that moment resources)... Random bounces. It was awful experience: Due to the fact that the enemy catches you up quickly, kills with one hit, and most importantly, the animation of the killing does not even happen close to the girl's body - dodges are completely useless in this game. And on the other hand, they constantly interfered when you want to climb quietly over a wooden log, and she corny dodges off and makes it noisy... I didn't like that you can't go back to take the loot that you couldn't take earlier... Some skills are totally useless, and cost disproportionately expensive... And I really didn't like that the game didn't tell us any information about that curse.
    ...
    It's not really a problems so it haven't had an influence on my rating. Just some complains: The kid, her brother, sometimes madly enrages me with his behavior... The main line of the game that "Children against grownups" could be a little bit better. I think it would be more interesting for the game's atmosphere of despair to have in story some children-traitors and some good grownups(not 2-3 as we have).
    Even with these minor flaws, I was ready to give "Plague" a top rating for reminding me of what great storytellers of no less great stories games can be. Especially when it is backed up by incredibly beautiful and eerie surroundings, and incredibly thrilling music.
    ...But... than came two stupid film/book/game clichés that totally spoils logic and adequacy only to squeeze a tear out of the viewer's and player's eyes. (1) Part of me was jubilant that in this game, on the contrary, there were many moments that trampled clichéd actions. But on about 3/4 of the game, one of the characters first started doing what was discussed just now... and... then just stopped. As if someone had thrown out of his head what needed to be done and what was agreed just now! ...It was awful, very awful and foolish from the author's side. To my great regret. (2) Epilogue three days later after the game's end. Too ridiculous after all that the whole game has cultivated in our heroes and how it ended in the finale. This epilogue is like the fifth leg of a cat.

    I did not enjoy the game as much as I thought I would. The sneaking segments were very easy, levels too linear and the characters not likeable enough. I enjoyed the music and atmosphere and played this in preparation for part two coming out this year.

    Some checkpoints were frustrating and set me minutes back, other times it would save every few steps. Combat with the sling and auto aim

    Some checkpoints were frustrating and set me minutes back, other times it would save every few steps. Combat with the sling and auto aim made it a walk in the park and an abundance of craftable materials resulted in more action than stealth and same voice actors were used multiple times for different characters.

Creo que en verdad que la intención de los desarrolladores en poder vivir una de las muchas historias que se dieron en esa época mezclando a su vez realismo con ficción. En resumen A Plague Tale: Innocence podría ser uno de esos Indies que pasan desapercibidos pero creo que al ser tan ajustado y plantear todos sus valores de una forma tan adecuada ha podido destacar por encima de otros títulos.

    Что можно сказать ней? Plague Tale, пожалуй, одна из самых качественных и интересных игр, в которые я играл за последнее время. Я точно не зря потратил на неё своё время.

    Плюсы:
    - Геймплей. Игра заточена на стелс (горшки и камни, расбросаные по уровню, можно использовать для отвлечения противников), хотя, почти каждую миссию можно попробовать пройти, убив всех врагов в открытую при помощи пращи - основного оружия в данной игре.
    - Баги. Их нет. По крайней мере лично я за 12 часов прохождения не встретил ни одного.
    - История. Захватывающий сюжет с парочкой неожиданных поворотов гарантирован. Игре получается чуть-ли не с первых минут затянуть тебя в свой мир. Кое-где она может тебя рассмешить, а где-то заставляет грустить и сопереживать героям.
    - Атмосфера. Как я уже сказал, игра затягивает с первых минут. Во многом благодаря своей атмосфере. В основном мрачные и удручающие локации порой сменяются светлыми и красочными. Благодаря этому игра не кажется монотонной и играть становится легче.
    - Музыка. Тут описывать не буду. Сами послушайте. Скажу лишь то, что музыка является полноценной частью геймплея.

    Минусы:
    - Графика. Она не плохая, однако, глядя на системные требования игры, ожидаешь увидеть что-то крутое.
    - Головоломки. Они есть, но их нет. За всю игру всплывает 4-5 "больших" головоломок, которые, однако, можно пройти с закрытыми глазами.
    - Крысы. А точнее их модели. Я понимаю их много, и пк не потянули бы 4к текстуры и высокополигональные модели крыс, но то, что есть, выглядит... не как крыса.

    Подводя итоги, хочу сказать что игра удалась. Как минимум она получилась запоминающейся, а играть в неё было очень интересно.

I wish there were more true fighting parts like the one that happens near the start of the game. For the most part it's just stealth.

    I'm torn about whether the game is a bit overrated or not, decide for it, yes it is, but still recommend it.

    The mixture of stealth and action is convincing, puzzles are kept quite simple. The story is actually pretty good, but towards the end it drifts too much in the direction of fantasy botch. It's probably a matter of taste, a "WOW, how brilliant!" but it didn't get me.

    Graphically and sound-wise, the game is quite well done (especially the soundtrack), but the characters' faces look more like wooden dolls if you look closely. Facial animations could also be a bit livelier, for a (still) quite current game the whole thing looks very old-fashioned.
    Very negative:
    Bugs and glitches: fortunately, this rarely occurs, but sometimes a script event does not occur, which means that the puzzle cannot be solved. If this happens, you have to reload the last checkpoint and the error is fixed. Even glitch figures sometimes wildly up and down, it's not a broken leg, but it looks ugly.
    I really don't liked the final fight. On the one hand because it was designed quite unimaginatively, on the other hand because of the design decision that when calling up the weapon wheel, a slow motion is not triggered as usual and thus makes the fight unnecessarily difficult. That could have been done a lot better.
    Conclusion:
    In the end a nice story driven game, not really good but certainly not really bad.
    But entertaining!

    For a long time I could not decide to play it. But it turned out to be a good game. Very reminiscent of TLoU.
    I don't like stealth games. But here "stealth" is not annoying, it is simple and interesting.
    Pros of the game: atmosphere, plot, beautiful world around.
    Cons: Character animation, slightly monotonous gameplay.

A Plague Tale se divise donc entre son gameplay de moyenne qualité et ça DA qui par contre, envoie la sauce tomate !

    Even with couple bugs, which led me to start chapter or find place where collision is enough to get out of tent, it is a great game. At first I thought it is mediocre and boring, but mood match did it well. Masterpiece.

    A Plague Tale: Innocence is a compelling story about two siblings who try their best to survive in a plague-filled world whilst trying to look for a cure for the brother's sickness.

The premise was interesting and the first chapters felt genuinely sad, but unfortunately the plot falls short in the later parts of the game. After everything from rat tornadoes to characters that make amazingly dumb decisions, it is safe to say that the game really shines the most during its first half.

    The gameplay consists mostly of stealth and light puzzle-solving sections, where you use lights and shadows to create a path to safety. There were some hiccups along the way, but for the most part these puzzles were easy but entertaining enough. As for the stealth and possible combat sections there isn't much depth to them and there sure were times when the enemies were either too inquisitive or blind as bats. However, these hiccups were quite few and far between, so I wouldn't claim that I wasn't entertained. Just don't expect anything groundbreaking.

    All in all A Plague Tale: Innocence is a quite short but entertaining adventure with its highs and lows. However its beautiful graphics and environments are already a valid reason alone to pick this one up, so if you really like rats or enjoy chill achievement hunting, please do so!

    I absolutely loved this game! It runs and looks beautiful, and it has a great story to go along with it! I Would have given this game a 10/10 if it wasn't for the fact that the stealth was somewhat tedious. Also this game is hard to replay because of how linear the game is. Besides those small issues I loved playing through this game!

    Стоит еще отметить, что сам сюжет далеко не детский и не щадящий, сама история весьма темная, да, есть кнш налет мистицизма, что не оч комильфо лично для меня, но это не то , что бы большая проблема, а даже наоборот, благодаря этому сюжет углубился, как и геймплей. Возможно, дабы эта игра стала около идеальной, нужно ввести более открытые локации, потому как на данный момент, игра ну крайне линейная, нам дают кучу всяких плюх для решения пространственных головоломок, однако из-за прямолинейности игры, пройти можно лишь одним путем, ну максимум двумя, и это реально сделало бы игру на порядок интересней, если у нас бы была возможность выбирать как нам идти. Скорее всего им бы просто не хватило бюджета на подобное, все таки игра не трипл эй. В любом случае, годнота.

En gran medida se divide en dos tipos de mecánicas: por un lado escenas de sigilo cuando nos enfrentamos a la inquisición, por otro una serie de puzzles cuando lidiamos con ratas. Y el resultado en ambas dimensiones quizás no sea el más profundo, pero si es razonablemente satisfactorio y, como no es un juego largo, no da tiempo a que nos llegue a aburrir. Y todo esto metido en una historia ambientada en el siglo XIV frances, con un toque importante de magia y ocultismo (especialmente alquimia); una historia que, sin ser increíblemente original, si está bien contada, logrando emocionar con las peripecias de los dos hermanos y el duro mundo en el que viven.

    A nivel gráfico, el juego es espectacular, sencillamente. La realización de los personajes y los entornos es brillante, las animaciones, la expresividad, y el diseño del entorno resulta impactante y sugerente. Te mete de lleno en su mundo. Y el sonido no se queda corto, con una buena selección de música (aunque no tiene mucha presencia, sale cuando importa), buenos efectos y buenos actores de voz (al menos en inglés, que es como lo jugué). Y todo ello, en mi experiencia, viene casi carente de bugs.

    El resultado, como digo, no es un juego que vaya a marcar un punto histórico ni un antes y después en el género del sigilo, pero sin duda es un muy buen juego que vale la pena disfrutar. Un 8.

    ITALIAN:
    Gioco non perfetto ma estremamente bilanciato in tutte le sue caratteristiche, forse solo un po' troppo guidato.

    AUDIO E GRAFICA:
    Comparto audio di ottimo livello, soprattutto il doppiaggio e la colonna sonora. Anche graficamente il titolo si comporta molto bene, anche se è soggetto a qualche calo di frame rate.

    Una nota negativa sono le animazioni facciali, che in un gioco così narrativo dovrebbero essere estremamente curate (il mio pensiero va subito ad Hellblade) ma invece sono basilari. Forse è anche per questo motivo che sono presenti poche scene di intermezzo e spesso non incentrate sui volti. Rivedibili anche i topi, che funzionano bene come massa ma se si osservano nel dettaglio sembrano telecomandati.
    Buone invece le animazioni dei personaggi.

    GAMEPLAY:
    Sebbene io non lo abbia giocato in quanto "PC gamer", penso che le somiglianze con The Last of Us siano molteplici ma tutto risulta ben contestualizzato e credibile.
    Molto bello come entrambi i protagonisti partecipino al gameplay, creando varietà, enigmi e situazioni originali.

    Io sono un amante dei giochi stealth e dei giochi narrativi, quindi questo è esattamente il connubio di cui avevo bisogno.
    Interessante l'uso della fionda e dei vari tipi di proiettili, necessari per cogliere di sorpresa o sfuggire a nemici che se no sarebbero imbattibili (non esiste combattimento corpo a corpo, e avrebbe anche poco senso utilizzando una ragazzina e un bambino).
    Se quindi lo stealth è semplicemente indispensabile nella maggior parte delle situazioni, bisogna far notare come l'AI nei nemici non sia sempre impeccabile. Se per quanto riguarda la "vista" sono ottimi, in quanto non basta passare lontano da loro per non essere notati, la loro capacità di ricerca degli intrusi è veramente carente ed è facile far perdere le proprie tracce. Allo stesso tempo però se non riesci a nasconderti sono veramente ostici, soprattutto quelli con attacchi a distanza.

    Sono presenti anche alcune boss fight, non estremamente interessanti ma abbastanza difficili.
    Molto più originali e piacevolmente impegnativi sono invece gli enigmi, che spesso riguardano l'uso della luce per allontanare i topi o la collaborazione con gli altri personaggi.

    Il difetto principale del gioco è secondo me nei troppi "suggerimenti" su quello che bisogna fare. Io ho completamente disattivato l'HUD, ma spesso ci sono degli indizi che ti fanno capire quale sia la cosa migliore da fare (ad esempio spesso si trovano i materiali per i proiettili speciali o compaiono dal nulla materiali utili quando li hai finiti). Non si può molto agire diversamente da come è stato pensato dagli sviluppatori e ogni tanto dà fastidio.

    STORIA:
    Come già detto la narrazione è un aspetto cruciale del gioco. Non è molto originale ma ha un eccellente ritmo e non stanca mai, anzi a volte si vorrebbe che fosse più approfondita. La storia sa emozionare, soprattutto grazie al rapporto tra i due fratelli.

    In conclusione, il gioco dura 10-15 ore a seconda dello stile di gioco e passano in fretta. È uno dei pochi titoli in cui non ho avvertito un inizio di noia verso la fine della storia. Consigliato praticamente a tutti, anche se non è esente da difetti (piccoli).

    VOTO: 8/10

    La inocencia frente a la cruda realidad

    Es un juego lineal de aventura de ciencia ficción, esta basado en el Siglo 14 en Francia en donde ocurre un acontecimiento de una peste (mezcla entre la peste negra y la peste bubónica) reflejada en una plaga de ratas. Tu controlas a una chica en +- 18 años llamada Alicia que debe cuidar a su hermano que conoce muy poco de 5 años llamado Hugo que cuenta con una enfermedad en la sangre relacionada con las ratas, a su vez los franceses están en un conflicto armado contra los ingleses.
    Hugo es un niño, super super inocente que debe enfrentarse a la cruda realidad de estos acontecimientos traumáticos.

    Gráficamente es impresionante, es uno de los juegos con mejores gráficos que jugué en PC y para mi fortuna, esta super super pero super bien optimizado, lo pude jugar con un AMD FX6100 y una RX570 en Ultra limitado a 45fps para una mejor experiencia, y se ve increíble, me lo imagino en 4K con HDR, debe ser una locura.

    Con respecto a la jugabilidad, esta basada en sigilo, los puzzles son super sencillos, nuestro protagonista tiene una honda que al principio del juego nos sentimos en mayor desventaja con respecto al oponente ya que a medida que pasa el juego porque es poco precisa y ruidosa, podemos ir mejorando nuestra arma con un sistema de mejora y looteo calcado al del The Last of Us, al igual que la forma de producir objetos o la forma de seleccionarlos con el R1.

    La banda sonora del juego es excelente al igual que los escenarios que cada uno de ellos cuenta su propia historia sobre todo lo que esta pasando.

    Algo que no me gusto para nada fueron la forma en la que hicieron a las ratas, te la cantidad que hay, parecen manchas negras con puntos rojos, ademas de que se mueven rapidisimo.

    En conclusión, me encanto, la pase muy bien jugando a este juego, aprovechen que están en Xbox Game Pass porque es un muy buen juego, super recomendado.

The last of us was the 1st game that made me feel that the characters were not bots with scripted dialog but actual people that react to events in a way so real that was never seen before, and the way the characters evolve their arcs and the way the relationships builds was mind-blowing. Then 2018 God of War blew me away with the relationship between Kratos and Atreos.

    Seen the recent trailers on the Plague Tale sequel, and the hype or excitement everyone felt about the game, I figured why not, and then the game blew me away. It's a perfectly crafted masterpiece, the weapons you get are meant for you to feel fragile, and it works great, the enemy soldiers are imposing figures that can take you out without mercy if you are discovered. The implementation of stealth is masterful, some encounters are the tensest situations I felt in my gaming life.

    The graphics are supreme, I was under the impression they were using Unreal Engine 4 to power this game because in some forums many replied that, but doing some research I confirmed Asobo used their "in-house engine" meaning the engine, which I found strange. Many youtubers are talking about AA games made with a low budget and the baseline for that is using 3rd party engines like unreal, but these guys came out of nowhere and created a killer engine with a low budget and executed a masterfully crafted story with stunning attention to detail. Kudos to Asobo they really achieved something. And long live linear grounded single-player experiences :)

    In that horrible world we find the sister and the little brother who have that innocent and adorable bond. As the story evolves I felt so attached to Amicia, it could be the cute accent, but I think it was also how the character evolves to the point where she would risk anything just for the safety of her brother and that basically is how Amicia grew so charismatic and heroic to me.

    Excelente historia, se ve hermoso y unas mecánicas muy bien conseguidas. La banda sonora es de las mejores que escuché en mi vida, se complementa perfectamente con la ambientación y te deja sin aliento. Gran juego que dificilmente olvidaré!

    The game has it's problems. Most of them being bugs, but it's so worth it to play it because of it's story and ESPECIALLY ending.

    Initially the story becomes engaging, dramatic, striking and you want to know what happens in the next chapter. One of the most striking points of this game is the first contact with the rat pests. The story is linear and short, basically going through the inquisition guards and rat plagues. It took me approximately 12 hours to finish the game. I bought the game on Steam, on a sale.Initially the story becomes engaging, dramatic, striking and you want to know what happens in the next chapter.

    I've never played a game set during a plague in medieval times. It's a very unique setting and I think a lot of my positive impressions are due to this. The game overall is enjoyable, though it is *very* easy. Solutions to puzzles don't take more than 5 minutes to figure out. Solutions to stealth segments are very clearly telegraphed to the player.

The game overall is enjoyable, though it is *very* easy. Solutions to puzzles don't take more than 5 minutes to figure out. Solutions to stealth segments are very clearly telegraphed to the player. I never once had to worry about conserving ammo or the items required to craft ammo. The only times I died were due to me being completely oblivious about the situation.

    I wish stealth was pushed more onto the player as well. For the vast majority of enemy encounters, knocking them with a couple slingshot hits is the easiest and quickest way to get done with a chapter. Why would I choose to be stealthy when I can practically run past the level? Granted, there are sequences where you *have* to be stealthy, but these are few and far between. This is baby's first stealth game for sure.

    The story is decent. It is carried by the interactions and relationship between Amicia and Hugo. Over the course of the game you feel their bond grow bigger and stronger, as well as your own desire to protect Hugo. Other characters are also likeable, but the voice acting for one of them makes it tough to enjoy their presence. Most voice actors did a great job though.

    The dialogue can be cringey at times, and downright goose-bumps inducing at others.

    What's most surprising to me is how an unknown game developer was able to push out a game this good. I'm excited to see what they put out next.

    I would definitely recommend this game for someone who wants a unique narrative experience, but not really for someone who wants a good gaming experience.

    TL;DR

    Dialogue can be great at some times, terrible at others. Visuals are great. Story is ok. Voice acting is fantastic for the most part. Gameplay is a bit boring and unstimulating. The game holds your hand more often than Amicia holds Hugos. The setting is amazing. The music is great.

    Incredible story, visuals and characters. The voice actors (english) are on fking point. The only letdown is the main villian himself even though the organisation surrounding him is quite convincing.
    The combat is bare bones on purpose so you can cleverly use the enviroment and stealth to advance. What i didnt like is the kinda basic progression (crafting) but i guess it s believable

    The game is cut into several chapters, which felt like reading through a good novel set during 1300s France.

    Playing into the 13 hours of Plague, I found it felt wrong to play the game on one sitting because of its heavily written plot. I took time and rest between chapters and close the game and continue on the next day or week, because it felt right to process the events and enjoy the characters. I found the storytelling similar to The Last of Us (the first one) through the conversations between the siblings, Amicia and Hugo – and a little bit of the awkwardness and humor of God of War’s Kratos and Atreus.

    The environment and story entail Skyrim village meets Game of Thrones political devices, with TLOU crafting system and stealth. The characters eventually meet a set of friends along the way around their same age. It felt appropriate that no adults became part of the main characters because everyone had their skill to offer.

    Graphics are stunning. For someone sporting an RX570, this game had no hiccups and looked like I played on its best. Maybe the linear storyline and limited environment were utilized to be inclusive of older GPUs but I had no worries playing it despite my aged GPU. Characters were designed beautifully, similar to Square Enix designs in their faces. My only issue was that Amicia, the main playable character, wore braids. I thought it’s becoming too much of the female MC standard among this generation’s games; see Lightning (FFXIII) and Aloy (Horizon: Zero Dawn).

    Hugo de Rune, the sickly younger brother who the main character is not close with, is the first adorable younger kid in a game I’ve seen. He may be whiny sometimes, but it was logical and right for his age, minus the bursts of annoy.

    On another hand, orchestra music fit the French Inquisition well of the 1300s, with everything available for casual strolling and combat. I found it jived along similar to TLOU’s beautiful scoring while exploring the limited environment of the villages, churches, farms, and plague-ridden rat worlds.

    On the con side, combat is not the strong suit of Plague because of its repetitiveness and some mechanics not being used up all in the end. I just wished most of the combat mechanics and materials are introduced earlier on rather than learning the alchemy of it all by the chapter.

    I enjoyed Plague Tale: Innocence enough to say that this felt like a complete game. Even if the sequel is out and I might soon play, I thought that the whole of Innocence is a historical stealth-action masterpiece for its time and genre.

    Great storytelling and a mixture of adventure with horror. Had a great time playing it for the second time. Waiting for the following games.

    Ortaçağ'da geçen, veba temalı kardeşlik öyküsü. Bir ergen kız ve onun küçük erkek kardeşini yönetiyoruz. Oyun aksiyon ve oynanıştan ziyade hikaye ve hikaye sunumu odaklı. Hikayesi ortalamanın biraz üstü, oynanış ve çeşitliliği ise eh işte. Elimizde sadece sapan var. Bir kaç bölümde bir onunla fırlatabileceğimiz bir şeyler geliyor ancak buna rağmen çok da çeşitli değil. Yapay zeka çok kötü.Ortaçağ'da geçen, veba temalı kardeşlik öyküsü.

Elimizde sadece sapan var. Bir kaç bölümde bir onunla fırlatabileceğimiz bir şeyler geliyor ancak buna rağmen çok da çeşitli değil. Yapay zeka çok kötü. Sizi fark ediyor, sonra hemen unutuyor. Açık dünya değil, lineer bir ilerleyişi var. Bu ilerleyiş sırasında küçük bulmacaları çözmemiz gerekiyor. Bu bulmacalar ve oyunun genel oynanışı hem basit hem de kolay. Yani ne yapacağınız, nasıl geçeceğiniz çok bariz ve bunu yapabilmek kolay.
    Biraz düşük bütçeli AA bir oyun. Benzer tarzda Hellblade vardı mesela, onu daha çok sevmiştim.

    Bu arada özellikle küçük çocuğun seslendirmesi epey iyi. Hikaye odaklı lineer oyun sevenler fazla beklentiye girmeden deneyebilirler. Yaklaşık 10 saatlik bir oynama süresi sunuyor.

    It's unlikely Innocence will lead to an epidemic of similarly snappy games, but we'd love this particular contagion to catch on. [Issue#341, p.116]

    We’ve got another outstanding adventure game. It’s not without technical flaws, but delivers a pleasant impression. Perhaps the next game of the studio will become a real gem.

    A Plague Tale: Innocence makes a commendable effort to mask its somewhat routine gameplay, and in the end, it wins you over with captivating atmosphere, great music, likeable main characters and nice visuals. If you like cinematic games, this stroll through Dark Ages is worth it.
