《奇异人生》团队新作《吸血鬼》详情 无善恶导向但存在多结局

　　《奇异人生》开发商Dontnod工作室今天披露了一些旗下新作《吸血鬼》的细节内容。尽管从此前公布的实机演示来看，本作包含了众多动作冒险类RPG的元素，但是从Dontnod的介绍来看，本作依然延续了工作室一贯的风格，为玩家提供了很多自由选择的机会。

　　《吸血鬼》的叙事总监Stéphane Beauverger近日在向外媒MCV谈及了游戏中玩家自主选择的内容：“你是会尝试当一个人道主义的吸血鬼，只在被害者身上轻轻咬一口，还是选择扮演一个只想着散播混乱的铁石心肠的怪物？游戏中不存在惩罚机制，也不会提示你到底该怎么玩，但是毫无疑问游戏会出现不一样的结局。”

　　如果玩家能够在《吸血鬼》游戏中不杀害任何一个人，也能体验到一个独特的结局。但是由于屠戮市民是升级、解锁能力最快的方式，所以Beauverger也坦言不杀人通关是一个挑战。

　　“每个市民也都有着自己的秘密，他们都有朋友、家庭、工作...他们中有些人是圣贤、有些是疯子、有些人是罪犯也有些是好人...你有权肆意杀人，但是如果你想去调查、了解这个人的底细，那么你也将获得更多有趣的角色信息表和潜在的目标。”

　　在被MCV问及为什么Dontnod要选择吸血鬼这个题材时，Beauverger开玩笑地回答说：“因为吸血鬼很酷，而且现在的僵尸题材游戏又太多了。”随后他认真地补充道：“吸血鬼是极少数能够清醒地认知自己现在是什么、过去又是什么的生物。我想要探索的是，当你变成一个可以自主决定不受诱导的吸血鬼会是什么样。我必须搞清楚该怎么处理这种新状况、理解游戏该怎么实现这一点。”

　　《吸血鬼》已于前段时间上线Steam平台，本作将于2017年12月发售，预购优惠价187元。感兴趣的朋友可以移步Steam商城查看详情。

Vampyr delayed to spring 2018
《奇异人生》团队Dontnod Entertainment新作《吸血鬼》跳票 延期至明年春季发售
转载 - 游明星空（http://www.gamersky.com/news/201709/958863.shtml）

　　由《奇异人生》《勿忘我》开发商 Dontnod Entertainment 制作的ARPG《吸血鬼》今天宣布将跳票到明年春季发售。

　　今天发行商 Focus Home Interactive 宣布了《吸血鬼》即将跳票的这一遗憾的消息，以下为开发商Dontnod的公告全文：

　　让大家钟情的作品延期发售的——这个决定非常艰难。然而，我们也坚信：不能为了赶上发售日就在质量方面有所妥协。就在几周前，我们还自信能够在今年推出《吸血鬼》。不幸的是，一个技术问题（现状已经解决了）在开发进程的最后还是拖了我们的后腿。

　　这次延期也让我们有足够的时间来打磨、平衡游戏，而这也是《吸血鬼》这样一款游戏亟需的。这款半开放世界有着相当的野心，它复杂的叙事和深刻的RPG玩法会让玩家对这个世界留下真正的印象。

　　我们要感谢发行商 Focus Home Interactive，感谢他们提供给我们的手段和必要的时间，从而能够为玩家们带来难忘的体验...尤其是有那么多的玩家真急切地等待着这款游戏的情况下。

　　《吸血鬼》原定于去年 8 月发售后来延迟至今年 12 月发售，如今再延期到了明年春季。本作已于前段时间登陆了Steam平台，感兴趣的朋友可以移步了解一下。



Vampyr, the upcoming action RPG from Dontnod Entertainment, has been delayed from its previously announced November release window to spring 2018, publisher Focus Home Interactive announced.

Here’s the full message from Dontnod Entertainment:

Delaying the release of a project you hold dear is always a tough decision. However, we believe that meeting a deadline should never compromise quality. We were still convinced just a few weeks ago that we would be able to release Vampyr this year. Unfortunately, a technical issue – now solved – has set our teams’ schedule back at the end of the development.

This delay allows us enough time for all the polishing and balancing phase, much needed for a game of Vampyr‘s scope, with its ambitious, semi-open world, its complex narrative and deep RPG mechanics that give players a real impact on the world.

We want to thank our publisher Focus Home Interactive for giving us the means and time necessary to provide players a memorable experience… especially since so many of you are eagerly waiting for it.

Vampyr will be available for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

《吸血鬼》首发即包括所有内容 不准备走DLC路线
　　
　　在同MCVUK交流时，Focus Home互动的老总Cédric Lagarrigue谈到新作《吸血鬼》时，表示该作品不会在发行后推出DLC内容。根据他的说法，这部游戏将是完整的单人体验，并且在发行时就提供所有内容。

　　“这是完全是单人游戏体验，我们也不准备推出DLC。我们更希望如果游戏反响不错，可以考虑一下续作。我们和Dontnod已经有了一些想法。在这个世界设定下有很多内容可以去尝试。”

　　Cédric还表示如果《吸血鬼》能够售出50万就能回本，如果售出100万就是大成功。

　　《吸血鬼》将于明年推出，敬请期待！

Two more episodes of this four-part webseries, produced and realized by the video department of Focus Home Interactive, will release weekly each Thursday.

In Episode 2: Architects of the Obscure, DONTNOD reveals the areas of London that you will explore and impact during your time in Vampyr. Each of the four districts have their own distinct style and groups of citizens, which can flourish or perish depending on your actions. Whitechapel and the Docks are ravaged by poverty and crime, while the West End benefits from a wealthier population – and is the district of choice for Ekons plotting in the shadows. Pembroke Hospital gives Dr. Reid the opportunity to put his medicinal skills to great effect, while tempting the doctor-turned-vampire with helpless citizens that hold him in a position of trust.

This latest episode also introduces the music of Vampyr, including insight from composer Olivier Deriviere. He discusses how he developed the game’s original score with consideration for its unique setting and atmosphere, as well as how the inner dilemma Jonathan faces translates into the music.

Vampyr developer diary series ‘Episode 3: Human After All’
《吸血鬼》第三弹开发者日志影像公开 介绍游戏中的NPC角色
转载 - A9VG（http://www.a9vg.com/news/201802/3946717288.html）

        Dontnod今日公开了旗下新作《吸血鬼》的第三弹开发者日志影像，主要介绍游戏中的NPC角色。

        本作故事设定在1918年的伦敦，《吸血鬼》将深刻探讨人性这一问题。身为一名医生，主角Jonathan Reid需要拯救这里的人们，但是他也同样无法挣脱吸血的命运。因此玩家在游戏中的选择也就变得非常重要，同时也变得那么难以抉择。

       《吸血鬼》将在 2018 年春季发售，对应平台包括 PS4、Xbox One 和 PC。

        故事背景设定在 1918 年的伦敦，西班牙流感侵袭了整个伦敦的街区。作为一名医生，主角Jonathan Reid在被自己身上的吸血性情所折磨的同时，也会尽自己的努力帮助被西班牙流感肆虐的伦敦，只不过为了生存 Reid 需要吸取一些血液，而这也是自身能力进化所必不可少的重要环节。

   

Focus Home Interacive and Dontnod Entertainment have released the third episode in its series of Vampyr developer diaries. Episode 3 is titled “Human After All.”

Here is an overview of Episode 3, via its description:

Episode III: Human After All—meet the citizens of Vampyr’s 1918 London, and learn how Dontnod will make you feel the death of each one you decide to feed on.

Join Dontnod Entertainment in their studio once again, for another look into the Parisian studio’s signature creative process behind their upcoming action-RPG Vampyr. Dontnod Presents Vampyr – Episode III: Human After All introduces more exclusive gameplay footage, while focusing on the citizens of London and how each individual has been hand-crafted to feel as human as possible. This is the penultimate episode of this four-part webseries, produced and realized by the video department of Focus Home Interactive, with the final episode releasing next Thursday.

In Episode III: Human After All, Dontnod reveals how integral each districts citizens are, both in terms of gameplay and narrative. Players will need to gain XP for Jonathan Reid to evolve new powers and grow stronger, but the most lucrative way to earn this is not through quests or defeating enemies in battle. Instead, the most effective way to get stronger is by killing and feeding on the various citizens living within the game’s four districts. Players are able to increase the XP from each citizen, by curing their illnesses and gaining more insight into their lives and feelings – but the price can be immense.

As explained by Stéphane Beauverger, Vampyr’s narrative director, players will hear the dying thoughts of every citizen they choose to sacrifice. This gives a bittersweet poignancy to every death, as Dontnod wants players to not consider these citizens as nameless blood bags. In addition, each dead citizen will erode the status of the district they belonged to, with too many resulting in the population evacuating districts and causing them to be overrun by Skals and worse.

And here is an overview of the game:

Vampyr is set in 1918 London, with the city weakened by the recent World War I and ravaged by the Spanish Flu. This setting makes up an important part of Vampyr’s identity. Dontnod will make players feel the duality that torments Dr. Jonathan Reid, giving them the freedom to choose who to sacrifice and who to save. Every killing has consequences, and it’s up to players to balance their need to feed and grow stronger, with the rapidly deteriorating city of London.

Vampyr is due out for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC this spring.

Vampyr Launches June 5, Developer Diary Series 'Episode 4: Stories from the Dark'

   

'Dontnod Presents Vampyr' webseries reaches its finale with a long-awaited release date announcement

Dontnod Entertainment brings fans into the studio one last time for a final look at the creative process behind upcoming action-RPG, Vampyr. Dontnod Presents Vampyr - Episode IV: Stories from the Dark reveals yet more exclusive gameplay footage, plus the release date. Also, dive into the story of Vampyr and how the Parisian studio builds a narrative with the player at the center. The four-part webseries, produced and realized by the video department of Focus Home Interactive, is now complete after a month of reveals.

In Episode IV: Stories from the Dark, Dontnod explain what makes videogames unique compared to other storytelling mediums, as well as their signature approach to narrative. As Narrative Director Stéphane Beauverger explains, the player is often occupied with Vampyr's intricate gameplay systems. Because of this, the exploration, investigations, citizen encounters, combat and hard-hitting choices are all fundamentally intertwined with the game's narrative. Game Director Philippe Moreau elaborates, saying that the relationship between a player and their character, as well as the direct feeling of control, is unique to games and something he has worked to make special in Vampyr.

In doing so, Dontnod liken it to theatre, creating a close relationship between actor and spectator that’s more effective and powerful than any film or TV show. Total immersion is the goal, and this episode also highlights how the studio has used motion capture to make the cast of Vampyr that much more human. Subtleties of facial animation can be recreated and combined with the fantastic music, characters, and creatures of the game to produce a living, breathing 1918 London. It’s then up to you who survives it.

DONTNOD Presents Vampyr – Episode IV is available to watch today, with three more 5-minute episodes already available. For more information, visit the new Vampyr website.

The game's wider narrative arcs are unveiled today in a captivating Story Trailer, brought together with an eerie cover of (Don’t Fear) the Reaper.

As a newborn vampire shattered by an irrepressible thirst of blood and thrust into a strange new world, Reid attempts to interpret the supernatural in the best way he knows how: rational thinking. However, between ancient societies, mysterious murders and an imminent large-scale vampire hunt, his scientific assurances are challenged like never before. Driven by a personal desire to learn who caused his transformation and why, Jonathan Reid continues working to find a cure to the devastating disease that decimates its citizens.

But doing so, he must confront his nature as a blood-drinker and the terrible temptation to feed on those he swore to protect…

Feed and evolve in Vampyr's action-filled new gameplay trailer

Vampyr, the upcoming action-RPG from Dontnod Entertainment, explores tortured protagonist Dr. Jonathan Reid’s growth in power through savage combat gameplay in today’s Becoming a Monster gameplay trailer. By sacrificing the very citizens Reid swore to protect, players will learn and evolve powerful vampire abilities in their struggle to defeat London’s deadly foes. Vampyr releases June 5 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, with preorders now available.

In Vampyr, the greatest source of XP to learn and enhance abilities comes from the blood of London’s citizens, who Dr. Jonathan Reid has set out to save from the epidemic sweeping through the city. The question is less “Do I kill?” than “Who do I kill?” Investigating citizens’ lives will allow Reid to decide who is more ‘deserving’ of sacrifice – or he can simply give in to his hunger and treat the mortals as blood bags. Either way, killing certain citizens will have a greater impact on the local ecosystem than others, while simply killing too many may cause an entire district to collapse.

After draining the blood of his victims, Reid can learn and evolve powerful combat abilities. Close combat abilities allow Reid to close gaps quickly, pouncing from afar before slashing with deadly claws, while others such as Bloodspear allow him to deal damage from a distance. At the higher levels of power, some abilities are feared by even the vampires themselves. Abyss allows Reid to unleash the shadows from within, while Rage targets and strikes entire groups of enemies with a terrible fury. Learning and evolving these abilities will aid in the doctor’s quest to save London – but at what cost?

Vampyr releases June 5 on PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC. Preorders are now available at vampyr-game.com.
