What...?
The protagonist of "The Face"...is a researcher at the Federal Bureau of Control?
And the process of the game...is the protagonist's self-salvation?
The entire game experience...is a false and real experience of the protagonist?
The players were stunned, with surprised expressions on their faces in front of the screen.
A long time ago, not long after the release of "Faces", Brother Banana discovered a contract with the FBC logo in the chapter of the protagonist Dwayne.
There is only one sentence in red in English above.
You
don't
give
a
fuck! (You don't even care!)
Then, based on this rough analysis, Brother Banana believed that the protagonist might have a cooperative relationship or an employment relationship with the mysterious Federal Bureau of Control.
But no matter which one it is, the protagonist is inseparable from the Federal Bureau of Control.
result...
Now comes a huge reversal!
The protagonist suddenly changed and became a researcher of this control bureau!
Now, when thinking about the existence of researchers, players can't help but think of the two doctors who disregarded life in "Sky Mountain".
There is also the protagonist in "Dark Forest" who is also a researcher but ends up miserable, and the agent in "Blackjack" who will die if he is not careful.
This organization is really full of talented people, and the protagonists are stronger than the last, and none of them are simple.
I really wonder if the protagonist of the next game will be related to this control bureau.
At the same time, what kind of adventures will he experience...?
Will the next game be a horror game...?
Players are both looking forward to it and being horrified.
I felt a little solemn about the Federal Bureau of Control organization in my heart again!
Because even the protagonist of "The Face" hides such a deep identity and background...
Soon, the video music started playing.
When the players heard it, they immediately felt familiar.
Take a closer look, isn't this...
The menu interface music of "Faces"?
And coincidentally, in the pitch-black scene, a light source suddenly shone down, illuminating the birdcage in the darkness.
So, the entire video was divided into two halves.
On the left are the game's menu options, and on the right is a metal birdcage.
Inside, there was a little gray-white Chirp looking around curiously.
Its chirps are accompanied by music, melodious and melodious.
At this time, Brother Banana spoke.
His voice seemed a little deep.
[Have you seen this birdcage and the little bird inside? This is the menu interface of "Face". At first, I thought it was just a casual menu animation, but when I got through the Lucy chapter, I discovered that this bird also has its own role. ]
[Let’s take a look at the opening of the game first. ]
As soon as he finished speaking, the game screen started playing.
This is a dark basement, with overhead lights flickering and flickering.
Mosquitoes fluttered in the light, and whimpers resounded among them.
The protagonist of the game, Dwayne, is silently loading his revolver with yellow bullets.
The video was then edited to show that the mother and son who were tied up in the basement were shot one by one.
When the players saw this, they couldn't help but think of the time when they were shocked by this scene.
It was the first high-degree-of-freedom VR game that players across the country had come into contact with in a real sense.
I thought I could flex my muscles and enjoy the game.
But I didn't expect that as soon as I entered, I would 'participate' in a... shooting incident with a real sense of first-person presence!
Because it was so realistic, many people felt guilty about killing people, so much so that they couldn't help but feel sick and vomited.
To this day, they are still vivid in their minds and cannot forget it.
At the end of the video, after the protagonist Dwayne killed someone, he moved the muzzle of the gun to the top of the screen, which is to his temple.
then...
Bang——
There was a loud noise and the screen paused
Brother Banana's voice interrupted this scary atmosphere and brought the players back to reality.
[The game opens with the death of the mother and son, and the suicide of the protagonist. ]
[At first, I thought the game was a flashback. Arrange the game process to the time period before the protagonist commits suicide, and understand the reasons for the protagonist's suicide from the player's perspective. ]
[Plus this is a horror game with real ghosts in it. Therefore, the common theory at the time was that the protagonist was attacked by past residents who died and became ghosts, and finally suffered a mental breakdown and became a madman who began to kill his family and commit suicide. ]
[At that time, many people also recognized this statement, but in fact, upon closer inspection, there are still many loopholes. ]
[So now, follow me to smooth out the entire game line! Let’s start with the first family, Lucy’s family. ]
In the video, a comic was opened.
When players see it, they immediately know that this is the collecting element of the game.
Many players have more or less collected some pages when experiencing "Faces". But they are not complete, because it is very difficult to collect, so I can only rely on chance.
In fact, this is understandable. After all, they are busy hiding from ghosts, so who can collect them carefully?
That’s why the plot analysis of Brother Banana is UP.
Video continues.
In the cartoon, it rains heavily.
Under the dark night, sirens flashed.
Crowds of people surged in front of the luxurious mansion.
In front of several police officers, a young couple clutched the bed frame and burst into tears.
On this stretcher, there was a body covered with white cloth.
It is being carried away by two professionals.
Players can know from the subtitles that this comic is the continuation of Lucy's chapter.
As expected, the body covered with white cloth on the stretcher was Lucy herself.
And the ghost that Lucy is chasing throughout the chapter happens to be her!
Among the several residents, Lucy looked the most terrifying because her entire lower jaw was missing!
Players are now looking forward to it more and more, what exactly happened in the story of "Face"!
What are the protagonist and the Bureau doing inside?
At this point in the video, Ba Nana begins to explain.
[Before talking about the main plot, let’s first take a look at what happened to the former residents of this house. ]
[First, the first family. Before 1961...Lucy's family of three moved to this historic mansion in the small town of Riversdale. ]
[The protagonist of the story, Lucy, is a little girl who doesn't like to talk and has social barriers. Her only friend is the pet bird her parents bought her. ]
At this point in the video, the game menu interface appears again.
The birdcage in the dark, and the birds chirping inside, gave it a sense of presence all the time.
Players can understand at a glance that the bird on the menu interface is Lucy's pet bird!
So that’s it!
There really is an ulterior motive!
I really don’t know what details are waiting to be discovered next!
Brother Banana’s voice continued to sound.
[Lucy is introverted. Because she has no friends, she named her only friend, this bird, 'Pick'. ]
[At this point, one person and one bird started talking about everything. Slowly, people became a lot more cheerful. Her parents saw this and were happy in their hearts, feeling that their daughter was slowly becoming lively and normal. ]
[But... this atmosphere did not last long, because an 'uninvited guest' came to Lucy's house that no one knew or noticed. ]
[No one knows who he is, and no one is aware of his presence. ]
[And his target is this little girl with autism, Lucy. ]
When the players saw this, their hearts tightened.
Is this uninvited guest... a ghost?
Were all the deaths of past residents caused by ghosts?
etc! wrong!
The entire game is about the protagonist Dwayne's self-redemption, so this uninvited guest...may be the protagonist?
The players didn't think much and continued watching.
[After focusing on Lucy, this 'uninvited guest' began to claim to be her friend. Then he continued to instigate Lucy to reject her parents, others, and everything in the dark. ]
[Under his subtle brainwashing, Lucy, who was already young, ignorant and autistic, successfully became an experimental tool in the hands of "uninvited guests". ]
[And the first thing he asked her to do was...]
Brother Banana stopped talking.
Then, a game scene appeared in the video screen.
It was a small, dark room that was so dark that you couldn't even see your fingers.
Players can only barely see through the highlight flash of the camera every time the shutter is pressed.
Some players who have played it immediately understood it when they saw this.
Because this is the most impressive scene in Lucy's chapter.
Under the bright light of the camera at that moment, the players saw that there was an empty birdcage in this room.
In the corner, Lucy was squatting.
Since it is a demonstration of the game flow, players all know it. Lucy at this moment could never be human!
Under the bright flash of the camera, she could be seen with her back to everyone, moving her hands around, not knowing what she was doing.
But the chirping of birds can be clearly heard.
But the birdcage is empty...
This place is closed and small...
Where do the birds... make their sounds?
As the protagonist in the game slowly approaches, the camera shutter flashes.
Some players who had played it immediately closed their eyes without daring to look, because they knew what would happen next.
Players who have never played "Face" or played the Lucy chapter have a vague feeling that something is wrong.
This sense of oppression...this atmosphere...is it possible...
In an instant, under the flash of the camera, there was only one second of vision.
A bird corpse, whose beak was split open with great force, hit the protagonist.
At the same time, a huge sound effect also sounded to express the shocking scene in front of us!
Many players who were paying close attention were frightened by this sudden scene and screamed loudly. Some even fell off their chairs!
They never expected that watching a plot analysis video would be as scary as playing a game.
What a shame!
Dry!
After showing the screen demonstration, Brother Banana continued to speak.
[The first thing this uninvited guest asked her to do was to kill her friend, the little bird Pique, with her own hands. ]
[Later, Lucy's parents were frightened. My daughter, who was gradually becoming more cheerful, suddenly became repellent to others for some unknown reason. In the end, at her age, she actually behaved in such a terrible way! ]
[So, they took Lucy to the hospital to see if their daughter was suffering from a mental illness. ]
[But players who have played the Lakan chapter know that this hospital in the town is more than just a hospital. ]
[They gave Lucy an injection and injected the medicine directly. And this move also made Lucy completely no longer trust anyone, not her parents, nor hospitals and doctors. Because the doctor hurt her, and her parents took her to the doctor who hurt her. Now, she only believes in her 'real friend', the 'invisible' friend at home. ]
[And her parents also quarreled over the injection. ]
When the players saw this, they immediately expressed doubts.
It’s just an injection, why are you so autistic that you don’t trust anyone?
Why was there such a quarrel?
Isn't this too pretentious?
It's not like a baby waiting to be fed. What's there to be afraid of?
Even if the baby is sick, he still gets a shot. Is there anything strange about it?
The players didn't quite understand the injection, but Brother Banana seemed to know that the players would ask this, so he explained the problem.
[I didn’t understand it at first. It was just an injection, nothing wrong with it. But considering that the background of the game is set abroad, I specifically checked the background of the 1960s in Western countries and got an answer that I think is more convincing. ]
[That is in the West in the 1960s, people would only get injections when their condition was very serious and began to threaten their lives. With injections being given directly like this in the game, it’s no wonder that the children don’t trust their parents, causing them to quarrel. ]
[Isn’t the hospital’s behavior equivalent to saying that your child has serious problems? But Lucy doesn't look like she's about to die. She just has a psychological problem and just needs some medicine and counseling. Therefore, the hospital's practice of giving injections created a gap in the family. ]
[But after receiving the injection, Lucy's mentality and condition completely collapsed due to psychological isolation, parents' quarrels, and the instigation of uninvited guests. ]
[Then, this uninvited guest began his last instigation. ]
The video screen changed again.
What appeared in front of the player's eyes was the terrifying trailer of "The Face" at that time.
Inside, there were whispers with an echo effect, resounding like the voice of the devil.
'Lucy...'
'Here I am...Lucy...'
'They're bad...Lucy...'
'I am your friend...Lucy...'
'Your parents don't love you...Lucy...'
'Don't tell anyone...Lucy...'
'Get rid of it...Lucy...'
'Do it...Lucy...'
'Get rid of it...Lucy...'
'Do it...Lucy...'
[So, Lucy, who completely collapsed, tore open her jaw alive in the bathroom on the second floor of her home. ]
The game screen changed again.
A little girl raised her hands and kept playing with them in her mouth.
Her parents shouted anxiously outside the door and even smashed the door, but to no avail.
Then...
The sound of tendons tearing sounded, shocking players who had never played before.
The little girl in front also fell to her knees weakly, slumped on one side.
The jaw in her hand slipped on the slippery floor of the bathroom...
In front of the players!
Suddenly, some players who had never played "Face" or played the Lucy chapter looked stunned.
Their eyes widened and their faces turned green when they looked at the bloody flesh sprouts and blood-soaked teeth on the screen.
Some players who were eating had their stomachs churning, their throats surging, and they couldn't help but retched!
Only those players who have played and experienced it attract hatred by posting comments such as "Looking Manli", "Real Food", "So White Teeth", "Such a Delicate Little Tongue".
Many players who saw this scene for the first time picked up the keyboard, endured the discomfort, and started building barrage protection!
------Digression-----
I was speechless. I thought I could finish the game plot in one chapter, but it turned out that it took two chapters and I still haven’t finished it. We have to speed up the progress of the next chapter, try to shorten the content of three chapters into one and complete it!
