Is there a mystery in the fan relationship setting of "Double Shadows"? Foreign media say it is out of reality
"Split Fiction", released on March 7, is a new work of the "Two-Player Travel" team, and it has achieved great success as soon as it was released. Not only is this game eye-catching with its countless whimsical creativity, but the ups and downs between the two writers' protagonists are also gripping. However, foreign media Thegamer suggested that when the producer deals with the fan group relationship represented by the two protagonists, there is a deviation from the reality, "No one will think of problems like the protagonist in reality."
Thegamer pointed out that the story of "The Double Shadow Wonderland" is built on one setting: science fiction and fantasy have completely different fan groups, and these fans are not only obsessed with the genre they love, but also have a deep disgust for another.
In the game, the two protagonists enter the world of story they created together. As the game progresses, levels keep switching between fantasy and science fiction styles. During this period, the two had a conversation: Zoe complained with disgust: "I really don't understand how people like science fiction novels, it's so depressing." Mio immediately retorted: "It's like how fascinated by fantasy novels, it's clearly the most overrated and pretentious type." This conversation laid the groundwork for the friction and conflict between the two at the beginning of the game.
The author of the article believes that this situation is almost impossible to happen in real life. It is undeniable that it is true that some people prefer one type but have no feelings for the other type, and it is normal to have preferences. But it is actually rare to have a great love for one novel and a strong disgust for another, especially when there are many similarities between these two types.
In real works, the boundary between science fiction and fantasy is far less clear than in the game. Many science fiction works incorporate fantasy elements, such as Star Wars, which includes both sci-fi settings such as spaceships and interstellar travel, as well as the fantasy elements of Jedi who use the Force, achieving the perfect fusion of science fiction and fantasy.
The Double Shadow Wonderland regards the preference for science fiction or fantasy novels as a personality division: the fantasy novel writer Zoe is easy-going and cheerful, and loves rural life; the science fiction writer Mio is serious and angry, and prefers urban life. Thegamer feels that this game makes the external personality differences caused by different novel preferences more prominent, especially in the first few hours of the game, but this presentation seems to be biased.
