The world view of "Dead Space" is very grand, and the overall plot is dark and desperate.
The main content revolves around resources and the end of the world.
In the interstellar age with advanced technology, humans have over-exploited resources, causing the planet they live on to become increasingly depleted.
Over time, when human resources were insufficient, they began to plunder each other, leading to wars.
It can be seen that the scarcity of resources has made all countries anxious.
However, continuing like this is not an option.
The more wars there are, the faster resources will be depleted.
Therefore, under the mediation of the United Nations, countries around the world reached a consensus and formed an alliance, the "Anti-Colonial Alliance".
The result of this is that there are no longer distinctions between countries in the world. Originally, the territories of each country were also called regions, such as North America and so on.
Subsequently, the Alliance established the "New Horizons Colony Base" on the moon to alleviate the increasing shortage of resources.
But people's exploration of the earth for resources continues.
After exploring the land, let’s explore the deep sea.
Thus, the fatal existence that spans multiple works of "Dead Space" and the "divine seal" was discovered.
The "Dead Space" series had high hopes from developers in the original world.
In addition to the trilogy with Isaac as the protagonist that players are familiar with, there are also mobile games, light gun shooting games, comics, animations, etc. to complete the world view.
The protagonist Isaac that players know only exists in the "Dead Space" trilogy. @精品\/书馆*First update~~
In other works, the protagonist is someone else.
But as the same protagonists, their fate was much worse than Isaac's.
Either dead or missing, or being dragged by the Alliance government for experimentation and execution.
What's even worse is that he was accused of "***" by the coalition government and was pushed out as a scapegoat to appease the people.
In short, they survived at the hands of monsters, but died at the hands of humans.
However, the development of IP is too extensive, which leads to a shortcoming.
That is, a complete story appears fragmented, numerous and complex.
It would be okay if the other works of "Dead Space" are all animations, and players can slowly make up for the plot.
But there are comics, mobile games, and...
Except for true fans and people who specialize in plot analysis, who among ordinary players would calm down and understand it? Everyone is very busy.
For this reason, "Dead Space", released in 2008, left many players still confused after completing the game.
What is the divine seal?
What happened to the Ishimura?
What the hell is ***?
What did Altman, the soul of this religion, do to deserve so many people’s belief and worship?
There are many more questions such as the above.
But soon, some players discovered a prequel animation called "Dead Space: Collapse".
It explains in detail what happened to the entire Ishimura spaceship before the first generation of "Dead Space".
In addition, two years later in 2010, a science fiction book called "Dead Space: Martyr" was also released in the form of a prequel.
Through these, players learned about the origin of the "Divine Seal" and the story of "***".
This book features university professor Altmann as the protagonist, describing how he quit his job and came to the Chicxulub Crater to work as a small researcher in order to be with his girlfriend.
Then the divine seal was discovered here, and it was discovered that the divine seal could control people's thinking, and fanatical believers appeared among the people who were harmed.
These believers include not only scientists, but also high-level and security personnel of the research base, and even Altman's girlfriend.
So, in order to save his girlfriend and himself, but also for these fanatical believers controlled by the divine seal. While studying the divine seal, he held a press conference as a geologist to expose it to the society to expand its influence.
But the result of doing so is to be threatened and put under house arrest by powerful figures in the alliance government.
Altman is immune to the control of the divine seal due to the influence of the protagonist's halo.
And his performance was mistakenly believed by believers to be the divine seal. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 177 Dead Space World View
The messenger is the prophet who comes to guide them.
Thus, a community of believers with Altman at its center was born.
Altman also took this opportunity to continue studying the divine seal.
Until one day, someone mutated into a necromorph, causing chaos in the base.
After Altmann escaped, he saw his girlfriend, but she was already an illusion.
This means that his girlfriend is dead and he has been affected by the divine seal.
After that, Altman received the message of the divine seal all the time. He was affected and seemed to understand what the divine seal was saying, so he drew the divine seal in the form of a blueprint.
However, he soon came to his senses and understood that the divine seal wanted people to copy him.
But one divine seal is already terrifying. If there are more copies, human civilization will be destroyed.
Therefore, Altman deleted all the information about the divine seal and started the base's self-destruction program in order to blow up the divine seal.
But he was knocked unconscious by a sudden blow. When he woke up again, he was already in an interrogation room.
The interrogator is a certain big shot, and all the information about the divine seal has been completely backed up.
He laughed at Altman's overestimation, and ignored Altman's warning about the horror of the divine seal and the fate of mankind's destruction. Instead, he released the monster sample to devour and assimilate Altman.
Because Altman once held a press conference to expose the divine seal, the outside media recognized him as a righteous person who dared to confront the alliance government.
Therefore, the important figures in the alliance government took this opportunity to convey the benefits of the divine seal to the world in the name of Altman, explaining to the world that the divine seal can bring eternal life.
Then establish a government with the purpose of immortality to increase belief and propaganda in Altman, making him a "saint" who will be remembered for generations to come.
As for Altmann himself, he became a useless cold corpse and the "martyr" in the title.
This book tells the story of the discovery of the divine seal and the establishment of the Communist Party, as well as Altman's own sacrifice. @精品\/书馆*First update~~
Before the game was released, many people believed that the Nazis with the slogan of "eternal life" in the game were a cult, and Altman was the leader of the cult.
After the results came out, Altman was rectified. He was a person who opposed the divine seal, and it was just wishful thinking.
However, the vehicle that completes the plot is, not the game.
Many people don't even know that this book exists, so how can they understand the plot?
The same situation happened in "Dead Space 2".
As soon as many players entered the game and before they entered the state, they saw a man being devoured and mutated in front of the protagonist Isaac.
Players don’t know who this man is until they complete the game.
Later I realized that the man who died at the beginning was the protagonist of "Dead Space: Burning".
He is an engineer like Isaac. In his own work process, in order to fulfill the orders of his superiors, he hid from the corpses on the space station, shot his girlfriend, and finally rescued Isaac at the beginning of "Dead Space 2" .
Then the next second he was attacked by the necromorphs.
Many players who are playing "Dead Space 2" for the first time are confused.
Therefore, these protagonists from other Dead Space works not only complete the entire world view, but also explain what happened in the gap between Isaac's trilogy.
It can also be seen from this that the developers of "Dead Space" are very ambitious and want to create a huge IP.
But in the end, he was defeated by high-level strategies and disappeared.
For these works, comics, and animations, Meng Shu will not do it the way it was in the original world.
He didn't know much about these industries and it was better to centralize production than to be too fragmented.
He will change all these, comics, and animation plots into DLC and add them to the main game.
In this way, players can have a comprehensive understanding of the entire worldview setting, instead of being scattered one in the east and one in the west.
As for the plot issue, the main plot of the first generation of "Dead Space" is actually very simple.
The main scene of the game, "Ishimura No.", suddenly couldn't be contacted, so a certain mine responsible for the work of Ishimura No. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 177 Dead Space World View
The company urgently dispatched a
A maintenance team went to investigate.
In the group, there is Isaac, the protagonist of the trilogy.
In addition to providing technical support, his purpose in coming to Ishimura was to find his girlfriend.
When a group of people arrived at the Shicun, they found that there were corpses everywhere, and there were corpses everywhere that they had never seen before.
In order to survive, Isaac, a mute tool man who could not speak, began his own journey to become the God of War.
During this period, I was fighting and killing, going from point A to point B. During this period, I also released a reborn monster into the universe because it couldn't be killed.
It wasn't until halfway through the process that I discovered that the Ishimura was a ghost ship. So the protagonist Isaac ran to release a signal for help, which attracted the patrol battleship "Courage".
However, the Courage discovered the regenerator escape capsule dropped by the protagonist Isaac, thinking that there were people in need of help inside, and took it in.
Then Spirit became the second Ishimura.
At the end of the game, the protagonist Isaac kills the big BOSS, blows up the divine seal, and leaves the planet.
But this is just the main plot.
The background plot under the main line must be interpreted in conjunction with other works.
In short, under the simple main plot, there is a story that connects the world.
In other words, players want to understand the entire plot. In addition to playing games, I also have to read comics and watch animations.
Therefore, Meng Shucai decided to integrate it in the form of DLC. @ESSENTIAL\/SHUKEG·No mistake first release~~
As for the plot, in order to connect with "Control Failure", some changes will naturally be made.
But Meng Shu still has no specific ideas on how to change it, only a general direction.
However, the current plan for "Dead Space" is just to make a trial version, and it has not yet reached the time of official development.
Therefore, there is no need to follow the game development process. You only need to arrange a part of the staff to produce the required art resources.
After the E3 exhibition is over and the VR version of "Dark Forest" is completed, we can fully devote ourselves to the development of "Dead Space".
Meng Shu yawned and looked at the sky.
It's past 10pm now.
But he was not in a hurry to get off work. Instead, he looked at a PPT file on the computer desktop.
No need to guess, Meng Shu knew that this was all the conceptual design of "Dead Space". There are scraps and final drafts in it, and it contains all the design collections.
Meng Shu double-clicked it and browsed it briefly.
Inside, there are several designs of the divine seal, as well as several designs of the protagonist's engineering clothing.
Even the name "DeadSpe" (Dead Space) has two interpretations.
One is that the divine seal itself will generate a safe space, so it is called dead space.
The other is that after the divine seal absorbs all life, it turns the universe into a lifeless space, so it is called dead space.
But when it comes to life absorption, "Dead Space" does have an impressive and eye-catching highlight, and that is the design of the zombies.
This thing, which appeared from the DNA of human corpses changed by the divine seal, is an out-and-out murderous monster.
And unlike zombies, the rotting walking dead, necromorphs are more like becoming a brand new species, terrifying and vicious.
In the game, the most common necromorph is the "slicer".
According to the setting, this type of necromorph is combined with human DNA.
They were hunched at the waist, with not an inch of intact skin on their bodies, only flesh and blood.
The ribs were clearly visible, the chest was disemboweled, and the organs were missing.
However, these unappetizing bloody scenes will not be seen because they are covered by the clothes they were wearing during their lifetime.
In addition, the cutter's arms lost their activity and merged with the body, leaving only the forearms dangling feebly at the waist.
At the same time, the lower leg will be bent behind the leg and replaced by the regrown limb.
The face of the head will be damaged to varying degrees, some are split in half, some have no face, some are missing a lower jaw, etc.
But the most obvious feature is the two fists of flesh and blood growing out of the back of the neck. (This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 177 Dead Space World View
of bony falx.
The blood dripping looks extremely scary.
In fact, in the game, this pair of curved scythes is indeed terrifying. First update@
The fragile human body cannot resist at all, and it is almost cut into pieces.
Even some metal buildings can be easily cut by cutters.
In addition, they also know how to hide in ventilation ducts to deliver fatal blows, and they can also lie in piles of corpses and pretend to be dead to sneak attack players, etc.
Only a few will attack frontally.
This proves that they are fundamentally different from wandering zombies.
And this kind of monster is just the most common type in the game.
Because in addition to the Cleaver, there are many other types of Necromorphs that exist, with varying degrees of threat.
At the same time, they are not like zombies and can be fine with a headshot.
Instead, the solution is to cut off the limbs and make them completely incapacitated.
This is a great test of the player's shooting ability.
Although the game has made compromises for the sake of entertainment, so that players do not have to actually take off limbs on easy difficulty. But the actual setting is really terrible.
Therefore, Meng Shu decided to restore this point.
Not for anything else, but mainly for players to have fun.
Let them see how terrifying this unprecedented terrifying monster is! .
