As the game content is gradually unlocked, and the main and branch lines in the game are gradually revealed in front of players, the more they can feel the charm of the game "Sin City".
Although it is a crime-themed game, the characters in the game do not make players feel disgusted.
The various characters even provide profound irony on various serious illnesses in reality.
For example, Carl's brother Sweet has a completely different personality from Carl. He doesn't like new things and doesn't trust outsiders, just like an old stubborn.
So when he heard that his sister's boyfriend was actually a Latino boy, he was so angry that he wanted to beat them up, which made the relationship between the brother and sister very tense. He even asked Karl to mess with his sister. Dating.
However, Karl, who has worked hard in Liberty City for many years, has a completely different personality from his brother Sweet. He knows that if he wants to make a career, he must make friends, so he did not follow Sweet's instructions to cause trouble, but Decide to get to know your sister's boyfriend first and then make a decision.
And Carl was not disappointed. Although his sister's boyfriend Cesar was a member of a Latin gang, he was very bloody and loyal, and even saved the lives of Carl and his brother Sweet later.
With Carl's help, Sweet's gang has regained its glory and regained a lot of territory. Its reputation has greatly increased, but there are many hidden dangers.
Those are the two most trusted backbones of Sweet, Smoking Gun and Ryder.
It can be known from the dialogue in the game that unlike Sweet, he is determined not to touch drugs.
Ryder himself is a big drug addict who goes crazy all day long, and the big smoker also said that he has no objection to the drug business and thinks that it is all about living a shabby life.
On the day that Sweet and the others decided to ambush their mortal enemy the Bale Gang, Carl received a message from his sister's boyfriend Sweet and learned one thing, that is, both Wright and Smoking Gun were young men.
One has long been hooked up with the Bale Gang, and the other is hooked up with Tempeni and other police officers who blackmailed Carl into doing things.
In the end, the ambush failed. Not only did the gang members suffer heavy casualties, but even Carl and Sweet were killed by the police officers who arrived.
However, Carl was not put in jail, but was thrown into the wilderness by the police, because for Tempeni, Carl had helped them a lot during this period, and they naturally did not want such a useful tool man. Will be thrown away.
Besides, Sweet's brother is now in their hands, so they don't have to worry about Karl, the tool man, losing control. It's an unexpected bonus.
But it's from here that Carl's thrilling story begins to unfold throughout "Sin City."
Under the introduction of his brother-in-law, Carl participated in an off-road car race and met a very distinctive character: Wu Zimu.
This man in a black suit and black sunglasses is the boss of the Triad in San Luohui. He always looks calm and peaceful.
But these were not the things that surprised Carl the most. The thing that surprised Carl the most was that the boss racing with him on the mountain road turned out to be a blind man.
Although he is blind, Wu Zimu doesn't care at all about his disability. His subordinates are also very cooperative, paving the way and navigating for him so that he can do things that normal people can do in a serious manner.
This sense of contrast makes Wu Zimu directly become one of the most likeable supporting characters in the game.
Especially after making friends with Carl, Wu Zimu even helped Carl many times, and finally invited Carl to be a partner in the casino.
When Karl asked why he wanted to help him, Wu Zimu just replied plainly: "I am a blind man, but my heart is not blind."
Of course, what makes players feel more is the combination of fantasy and reality shown in this game.
If we say that in the previous "Persona" developed by Nebula Games, the setting of palaces and shadows has been used to show the dark side of society and people's hearts.
Then the game "Sin City" is a direct satire.
Every city and location in the game has its own prototype.
And each side story shows hypocrisy in all aspects.
Ordinary people, celebrities, journalists, gang members, and even police officers all exhibit this hypocrisy.
For example, Mike Toreno in the game is not corrupt, unlike Tenpenny, and even wants to make this country better. However, although he knows about corrupt officials like Tenpenny, he has no way to use his legitimate rights to stop them. .
So he could only choose to blackmail Karl into helping him do things, just as he said.
[You still don’t understand, do you? It's all white knights and heroes and we have to make a decision, boy. You know, I try my best to make the bad guys suffer, but sometimes, I also let the good guys die.]
The entire game is full of irony and black humor, just like a mirror, using an absurd and black humor method to satirize some ugly phenomena in reality.
Irony, joking, exaggeration, and descriptions of all things social make the whole game full of deeper connotations.
From democracy and freedom, rights and obligations, social conflicts, racial conflicts, unemployment and crime rates, the ugliness behind prosperity, lifestyle and cultural conflicts between people of different classes and backgrounds, etc.
Putting aside the refreshing and rich gameplay, the story and core of the entire "Sin City" have become quite heavy.
Especially when Tempeni was indicted on various charges in the end, but was acquitted because there was no evidence, it triggered a nationwide riot in Los Angeles, which reminded countless players of the major riots that had occurred in Los Angeles in history.
Fortunately, although the story of "Sin City" is full of irony and banter, the ending of the Luodu line really satisfied countless players.
As the protagonist of Nebula Games, the death rate can be said to have always been high.
In addition, as crime-themed games, many characters in the original "Red Dead Redemption" and "Payday" did not get good results.
Therefore, many pessimistic players have already reserved a coffin for Carl in advance.
But in the end the game gave them a big surprise.
At the end of the game, Carl single-handedly destroyed the pharmaceutical den and killed the second and fifth smokers. Faced with the sudden appearance of Tenpenny, who took away the stolen money from the smoker and got on a fire truck to leave Luodu, Carl and others The pursuit led to him losing control and falling down Grove Street.
In the end, Tempeni was seriously injured in a car accident and died dramatically on the spot, thus bringing the great riot in Luodu to an end.
At the end of the journey, Carl's dummy was in the house where he started, discussing the future.
His brother Sweet was thinking about how to expand the gang's influence, while his sister Kandel was thinking about continuing to run San Luohui's business. The other friends he met along the way also came to his home to talk about their experiences during this time. , making the atmosphere full of joy.
Karl, on the other hand, has no idea. For him, it is enough for his family and friends to be safe.
Looking at the celebrating family and friends, Carl just said: 'I went to the street to see what happened. '
