太阁立志传系列应该是很多80后90后的童年回忆吧，DX版虽然是PSP平台移植而不是PC原版，也值得（等打折）入手怀旧。
大言不惭地说一句，这是一款我从注册Steam的第一天起就在等的游戏！

玩了几十小时，一周目，柳生开局，从1560玩到1620强行结束，通过读档刷了十几个结局。
私以为DX版相比04年的PC版，差异大致如下：

没看预告片，无意中发现的新要素：

1. 增加人物、事件，譬如说有卡的三浦按针（穿越自Nioh的著名航海家William Adams ），无卡的海雷丁（穿越自大航海时代的巴巴罗萨船长）
2. 增加合战、秘技，譬如吉冈流的毛片（猫骗）；如果武学和医学双星，可以学到“干饭”，大概是现实中我唯一会的太阁技能了
3. 增加结局，其中最有趣的大概是历史创造者结局，需要写四本书之后结束游戏，未知条件达成之后，某一天博古通今的老人来拜访让主角准备笔墨纸砚，武艺：无双之卷（条件不明，当时有剑圣和天下无双的卡）；政务：治民之卷（条件：得到“贤侯”卡片）；友谊：结缘之卷（条件不明，当时持有茶圣和茶室，不确定要认识多少人）；功勋：升官之卷（条件不明，可能和武士功勋有关，未必要达到城主级别，当时是家老，大名家兵法指南役）
4. 据说手持妖刀村正砍人会有修罗结局，剧情中我刷到半夜做恶魔，村正蛊惑我献出灵魂人刀合一，可惜然后就没有然后了

除了鼠标手之外，体验比较不好的地方：

1. 高清版是重置了个寂寞，画质和04年PC版相差无几，合战的时候/人物对话各种卡顿，还好这是个回合制游戏，姑且放他一马
2. 人物在地图上行走久了看画面一直在抖会眩晕，开局赶快去羽黑之里学疾行再去行商人那刷匹好马吧
3. 一些结局和相关的历史事件无法触发，不知是否是PSP和PC的差异，目前达到条件但无法触发的主要是冷门路线，如打铁匠路线的京之町铁炮竞赛和医师路线的小岛神医结局
4. 因为是PSP移植PC的缘故，UI和部分小游戏，始终令我不太习惯，例如辩论和矿山
5. 大名可以分封城主，但是国主无法任命城代，手底下的城一多，发放主命的时候点得手抽筋，只能坐等太阁绘卷上workshop了

其他胡思乱想：

1. DX能娶的老婆好像增加了，除了几位旅馆之花，还有九州平户之町的丽璐和亡国的公主（复杂剧情），可惜女武将还是不能娶丈夫，也没有像信野里的姬武将/生子系统
2. 每天回家最大的动力是和老婆闲聊，吃老婆做的暗黑料理（大雾）
3. 这个游戏最最最重要的数值真的是武力值，技能都可以慢慢修炼，只要身上有钱有交易品，走哪里都有人打劫；名声高了敌方刺杀，恶名高了剑豪追杀，一半时间在打架
4. 还是最喜欢喝茶了，喝着喝着一言不合就拔刀相向：大人，一直和你关系很好，交手吧！！！

如果你有情怀有余额，且是暗耻冷饭爱好者，建议现在入，信喵之野望谁不喜欢呢？
如果你不是二十年KOEI脑残粉，建议等打折再入吧，谁还不是补票呢？

That story reveals us the deep dark fantasy of comrade Trump, who's known as Chuan Jianguo in China, making every effort in the re-election to make China great again.

Born in China, Chuan Jianguo always wishes to devote himself into the development of his beloved country, so he went to USA and renamed himself to Trump. With the help of CCP and comrade Sleepy Joe, he would finally fulfill his dream in the White House. In the game, your target is to rule the country via Twitter and manipulate public opinion to realize the ambition of Chuan Jianguo's re-election.

在21世纪初叶，有三名伟大的中国人远赴白宫，在遥远的美洲大陆为实现中华民族的伟大复兴而鞠躬尽瘁，万死不辞。

他们的名字是，奥观海！川建国！！乔振华！！！

游戏的主题是推特治国和操纵舆情，以实现川建国连任野望，你可以饱览CNM的Fake News，和西方记者谈笑风生，提高观众姿势水平，甚至喊出Nobody knows better than me愤而离场！

三个关键因素决定结局的走向，金钱、人心和法治，无论你是怎样的川建国，请谨记：

水能载舟，还能煮粥，亦可赛艇！

我是大笨蛋，大傻瓜，大白痴。
13之后，我是超级大笨蛋，究极大傻瓜，宇宙第一大白痴。

作为一个KOEI社的脑残粉，我一向戴着粉丝滤镜玩游戏，信野玩久了，回到三国志看着曹操都觉得眉清目秀甚至还能脑补天下布武，但是13实在是太垃圾了，以至于我绞尽脑汁都无法想到一个推荐的理由（借口）。

大概是真三国无双猛将传的后遗症，我开局选了黄巾之乱的吕布，给丁原打杂，没几天剧情就快进到我成为董卓手下，于是每天做做任务打打敌军坐等王允老头嫁貂蝉给我。万万没想到，历史剧情没触发，我，大汉温侯吕奉先，给董卓兢兢业业打工直到他以异姓诸侯王身份光荣大葬，王允老头都和我成了莫逆之交，他就是不嫁女儿给我。董胖挂了之后，牛辅短暂地上位，随后迅速公子献头，王位兜兜转转给了同是西凉的韩遂，故事的最后还是西凉得了天下而我还是没娶到貂蝉。

本作主打的RPG系统，大概就是个笑话，武将之间的羁绊做得也是千篇一律，朋友/知己/夫妇之间的互动区别极小，甚至没有无双里面的特殊台词令人印象深刻。说起来有趣，三国志13大概是出于政治正确，实现了一夫三妻/一妻三夫制度，让女性武将也能广开后宫。如果不是这点恋爱养成要素，三国志13大概早就恶评如潮了。（虽然加入了育子系统的PK更是一片差评[doge]）

满地图拜访，四处做任务，最终都会归于两个小游戏——基于智力数值的“辩”，和基于武力数值的“单挑”，而任务的流程则是显而易见的随机事件：请求>调查>战斗，可恶的是这些固定模板还不能跳过，于是时间就这样在城里探索中流逝。

NPC：任务
去Random（城市）
取得Random（宝物）
或者
和Random（人物）
进行Random（辩，单挑）

人物无论怎么成长，任务始终是这个套路，堂堂都督出巡路上，总有人拦路试图单挑，难道是大汉温侯这名头不够响亮？

而地图虽大，寸草不生，单枪匹马在城市间穿梭，满屏皆是马赛克，不要误会，这不是赛博朋克的时空隧道，可能只是制作组忘了给地图贴图。

最后，正义在西凉！！！

A typical Sakura game of the weebs, by the weebs, for the weebs.

In this game you act as young Toru, a prospective priest who recently moved to his grandfather’s house. The biggest surprise in Tory’s new life is two cat girls, Kayo and Nayoko, the spirits of local shrines.

Just like other Sakura games, your choices might lead the story to a different direction but there’re only good endings of every character.

It’s relaxing to pet the cat girls and date with them.

Thanks Archi weeb :sgsmile:

Just like other Sakura games, it's a typical CGDCT story. The visual novel does have a lot of choices, you might feel hard to decide at first, but you would find out that there's no clear ending for each girl.
如同Sakura系的其他游戏，这是一个关于可爱的女孩子做可爱的事情的游戏，你可能在游戏的初期会纠结于两个可爱女孩之间难以抉择，但玩下去，你就会发现，你的选择并没有什么影响力，还是百合大法好——双份的可爱不香吗？

That story happens in a swim club, so it's really helpful if you wanna learn to swim online/offline. After finishing that game, I immediately called my friends and went to the nearest swimming pool. Believe me, I even gained some knowledge and skills from the game!
这个体育游戏的主题是游泳，相信我，你甚至可以在里面了解到一些有用的游泳技巧，学以致用！

Thanks my dear friend OG weeb for the 2hu gib:3
最后也最重要的，感谢我的游戏投喂者OG~

In the story you would act as lady Song, a private investigator, hacking into mailboxes/cameras/tablets, searching for hidden evidence, linking the clues, and digging the unspoken truth. "My lips are sealed." Usually, the suspects would say so, but you could always persuade, bribe, or even intimidate them to get their answers.
在这个故事里，你扮演从事私家侦探的宋，通常犯罪嫌疑人会说：“我什么都不知道。”但你总是可以破解系统、收集情报、收买乃至恐吓犯罪嫌疑人，无所不用其极，毕竟人总要恰饭，恰饭就要查案，人生总是如此的艰难，有些事情一定要拆穿。

The prologue case is relatively simple, a mad scientist called and hired Song to find his missing robot dog, which was made for his daughter as a gift. Since it was equipped with advanced but illegal tech, the scientist can't seek help from the police. Song found out that it was stolen by some mafia members from the underworld and went on her journey to rescue the dog.
序章的故事很简单，一个科学家为女儿制造了智能机器狗当做礼物，但是机器狗由于使用的黑科技过于高端而被黑帮盯上并抓走，走投无路的科学家找到了女主角来拯救他心爱的宠物。

The game has split screens, Song's studio, and her computer screen. The main operation is to use her computer to invade various locations, after obtaining the info you could call the employer to update the case status or spam the suspects.
游戏分屏，1/3是女主的工作室，2/3是玩家可操作的界面，主要玩法是使用电脑窃取情报并给雇主/线人打夺命连环call，不是要钱就是要命。

The graphic style is impressive and the decryption method reminds me of Phoenix Wright. Nice prologue.
游戏的画风接近美漫，有一种谜之科幻感，玩法简单但也颇为有趣，值得推荐。

My first ko koi knowledge was from Yakuza 0, at that time I suffered a lot from the mini-games but the koi-koi was really attractive! After some time I got the game and began online battles with my weeb friends.
我第一次打花牌是在如龙系列里，即使被世嘉内嵌的小游戏折磨得死去活来，伤痕累累的我依旧发现了花牌的魅力。

The koi-koi rules are quite easy, once you understand them you could always check the wiki on the right bottom and calculate how many cards you could earn then decide when to koi or stop. That game needs both skill and luck. May the fortune be with you!
花牌规则很简单，四十八张牌按照花色和月份，可以有不同的得分组合，你可以估计自己和对方的手牌，并决定何时叫牌和停牌，虽然这游戏的最大影响因素还是运气，有时候你就是手气不好，愿天照女神保佑你！

Even I like the game, I have to complain that the online mode is really a nightmare with endless delay and bugs.
So far only the Japan server works fine for me, anyway seems there're almost no other weebs playing.
最后，这游戏的服务器烂得一批，如果你非要玩在线模式，那么只能祝你好运了，因为你将要独自与永无止境的缓冲和令人抓狂的延迟对战，只有日本服务器还勉强能用，当然，这里依旧并没有什么人。

That game is short and full of sorrows. The player "I" was imagined by a little girl who suffered from a severe mental disorder. She doesn't dare to contact people from the outside world so she counts on "me" to help her buy milk from the store. On our way to the convenience store, as she gradually trusted me, I learned about the darkness and deep sadness in her soul.

How could I tell her that this world was never meant for someone like you?

春秋时期，吴越两国争斗，吴王阖闾重用伍子胥，兴兵伐越，越王勾践卧薪尝胆，三千越甲终吞吴。
Once upon a time in ancient China, there were two countries in a long-term war.
Kingdom Wu and Kingdom Yue, two of the strongest countries during the "Spring and Autumn" period.

游戏的主角是吴王阖闾之女，吴国王姬阿玉，她为安定国家假扮成去世的哥哥夫差，在国相伍子胥的辅佐下继承王位，剧情围绕着朝堂和江湖的纷争展开，朝堂之上伍子胥与政敌针锋相对，虎丘林中越王勾践卧薪尝胆只盼归国，谋反的巫祝一族蠢蠢欲动，阿玉青梅竹马的故人西施（夷光）、侍卫晨风亦卷入其中……
The protagonist of the game is Ayu, the princess of Wu, daughter of King Helu. For the stability of the country, Ayu pretends to be her brother Fu Chai and inherits the throne with the assistance of Prime Minister Wu Zixu.
The plot revolves around the dispute between the loyal courtiers and the betrayed prince-slayers. Wu Zixu has to confront his political opponents on the court. King Goujian lives as a salve of Ayu but he never loses the hope to return to his hometown. Ayu's childhood friend Xi Shi (Yi Guang) and knight Chen Feng were also involved...

虽然由于游戏体量原因，角色线开启前共通剧情分支选择较少，但《于君盟》的剧情仍是十分出色，值得多周目游玩。
Although due to the size of the game, there are only a few choices of common plot branches before the opening of the character line, the plot of "My Vow to My Liege" is still very good, and it is worth playing.

作为一款国产游戏，剧情和文案都可圈可点，人物个性鲜明，尤其是女主阿玉的塑造，颠覆了历史上宠信伯禧的昏君夫差形象，而人格魅力十足又有历史光环加身的国相伍子胥，是游戏里最令人印象深刻的角色。
The plot and copywriting are remarkable, and the characters are distinctive, especially the heroine Ayu's shaping, which subverts the image of the faint king Fu Chai in history.
With a charming personality and historical aura, Wu Zixu, the prime minister, is the most impressive character in the game.

或许受《越女剑》的影响，我一直认为西施和范蠡是官配，游戏里性转版的大祝西施？美则美矣。
Perhaps influenced by the "Sword of the Yue Maiden", I have always believed that Xi Shi and Fan Li should be together. However, that's just a joke lol.

游戏里将各条人物线的结局分为Good Ending与Bad Ending，我倒认为这更像真三国无双7的史实路线与IF路线，史实路线以李白《越中览古》收束，IF路线则由改变各角色的悲惨命运获得救赎。
The game divided the ending of each character line into Good Ending and Bad Ending. I think this is more like Dynasty Warriors 8's historical route and IF route. The historical route is condensed by poet Li Bai's "In Yue Viewing the Past", and the IF route is salvation obtained by changing the tragic fate of each character.

越王勾践破吴归，战士还家尽锦衣。宫女如花满春殿，只今惟有鹧鸪飞。
Goujian, King of Yue, came back home from the broken land of Wu.
His brave men returned to their homes, all in robes of brocade.
Ladies in waiting like flowers filled his spring palace.
Where now only the partridges fly.

從金馬影展關注了《返校》電影，之後才來玩的遊戲。
I followed the movie "Detention" from the Golden Horse Film Festival, and then came to play the game.

出於我對台灣島上的白色恐怖時期歷史的了解，遊戲各個主要角色歷史原型大致如下。
Based on my understanding of the history of the White Terror period on Taiwan Island, the historical prototypes of the main characters in the game are roughly as follows.

基隆中學事件，校長鐘浩東成立中國共產黨基隆中學支部，出版地下刊物《光明報》，印刷品原型；
The printed prototype: Keelung Middle School incident
Principal Zhong Haodong established the Keelung Middle School Branch of the Communist Party of China and published the underground publication "Guangming News".

新竹縣立中學事件，女主方芮欣原型來自此案，崇尚新民主主義的教員與學生成立社會主義青年大同盟，收聽中共廣播，在讀書會中時常研討並宣傳中共優點及國民黨缺點，牽連者甚眾；
Fang Ruixin’s prototype: Hsinchu County High School incident
The teachers and students who advocated new democracy established the Socialist Youth League, listened to the CCP’s radio, discussed and publicized the CCP’s strengths and the Kuomintang’s shortcomings in the reading clubs.

中共台大工學院支部共產黨員傅煒亮案，師生戀與檢舉事件的原型。
Prototype of the teacher-student relationship and the report incident:
The case of Fu Weiliang, a Communist Party member of the National Taiwan University College of Technology Branch.

總體來講，電影的敘事方式比遊戲的倒敘更清晰明了，而遊戲比電影更殘酷而細緻地展現了白色恐怖時代台灣島上的青年們對自由和知識的追求，亦有民俗傳說作為劇情線索，配合不斷跳躍閃現的回憶，讓玩家隨女主的腳步逐漸挖掘真相。
Generally speaking, the narrative method of the movie is clearer and clearer than the flashback of the game, and the game is more cruel and detailed than the movie. It shows how the Taiwanese youth seek freedom and knowledge in the era of white horror. There are also folklore legends as plot clues. Together with the flashing memories, the player will gradually discover the truth in the footsteps of the heroine.

《返校》遊戲畫風古樸，背景配樂極有氛圍感，解謎線索前後皆有伏筆，劇情草蛇灰線，實是上佳之作。
The game "Detention" is a really awesome work with a simple style of painting, very atmospheric BGM, foreshadowings before and after the clues to solve the puzzle.

製作者在另一部作品《還願》中的政治觀念不應影響玩家對《返校》遊戲本身的評價，正如前不久的鋼煉塌房事件，作者荒木弘辱華，理應受到抵制，但這不意味著《鋼之煉金術師》就不是一部偉大的作品。
The producer’s political concept in another work "Devotion" should not affect the player’s evaluation of the "Detention" game itself. Just like the recent Hiroshi Araki case, Hiroshi Araki insulted Chinese people and should be boycotted, but this doesn't mean that "Fullmetal Alchemist" is not a great work.

白鹿予水仙：此生無緣，來世再見。致自由。
To freedom.
