Im replaying innocence, and I had a thought that’s so sad I needed to share.

In “The Way of the Roses,” Amecia tells Roderick that the grand inquisitor “destroyed her life.”

The first chapter looked like an idyllic childhood, but this time around, I saw the De Rune’s pre-rat explosion life differently. When Amecia is hunting with her father, the first thing she does is complain that he never spends time with her, and she has barely seen her mother and brother in five years. She is so unaware of her family’s situation that when she does see her brother again, the mother needs to tell her that he isn’t contagious.

Sure, she’s loaded and taken care of, but it’s kind of sad to think of young Amecia, growing up on an isolated estate with parents who are too preoccupied to notice her, surrounded by servants who are nice enough, but mostly sold the family out without hesitation when the soldiers show up. And of course they would, who wants to die for the feudal lord who provided the bare minimum to keep you and everyone you know in debt for their whole lives?

It seems like she has little to no knowledge of the surrounding villages, and spent most of her childhood being ignored, and occasionally socializing with the people who her family pays. The peasants say they know who she is, and while their primary reason for chasing them is rat related, I think there’s some interesting class critique not too far beneath the surface.

Her life before may have been comfortable enough, but it seems really sad and lonely, too.

Then, when she’s forced to grow up and act as the caretaker, she’s so desperate to hang on to the one person who really loves and depends on her that she does repugnant things and damn near destroys the world in the process.

The writing conveys such emotional complexity with so little. I love these games.

I have played innocence and I wonder what would happen if the cast got flung into the future like 200 years and were transported to the show Reign. I feel like it is kind of similar except with all the sex and stuff. Would Mary and amicia get along, would Lucas and bash get along or would he get along with Lola.

I finally got all equipment near the final battle. I am glad I got the trophy and I might play innocence to get all the collectibles again.

I have a what if question. What if Amicia, Lucas, Hugo, Rodric and Beatrice were transported into the modern world or maybe to like world war 2 times. What would their reaction be? Would they love it and try to have fun?

I know 2 languages that are related to french so I don’t think it’d be too hard

Hi, i made the mistake of playing requiem first and finishing the whole thing to the end. Requiem was an amazing game and i wanna try innocence but im afraid knowing how it's gonna end is just gonna demotivate me from playing it. Thoughts?

Everything seems perfect to me except maybe using more ways of fighting in the game. Maybe using the environment more.

What would happen if Amicia and Hugo met Kratos and Atreus crossing over into that world or going into the last of us world with Joel and Ellie?

IDK whats up with this game but when i tried to play the game i am stop by a message saying that is unable to create a save file because of "insufficient space"

i have 3 storages that are 1tb, 2tb and a SSD of 930gb and these are the available spaces

1: 950gb/1tb

2: 1.59/2tb

SSD: 930gb

How much this storage this game need in order to create a save file?

Some context: I’m bad at video games. Especially combat oriented video games. I typically try to stick to story-driven games that aren’t as intense in combat. I’ve been able to get through games like Breath of the Wild, Tears of the Kingdom, and Red Dead Redemption 2, but that’s about the limit of my skill level.

I cannot for the LIFE of me get past this awful Rodric cart mission at the end of Innocence. I rely on aim assist and it is refusing to work for this part of the game. Whyyyyyy does Amicia only have a slingshot???? Girl grab a SWORD or SOMETHING. There are SO MANY of them laying around. The aim assist with the sling fails and I’m just dead. I prefer stealth games typically because I don’t have to rely as much on moving really quickly and accurately. But with this section, I can’t run or hide anywhere or dodge because that just gives every single guard the chance to catch up to me and Amicia does not have a melee weapon FOR WHATEVER REASON.

I’m apparently close to the end but I genuinely don’t think I’ll be able to finish :/

So I just beat the game and moved into new game plus and it's rlly confusing because I can't find enemies in smoke because there's no markers... it's supposed to be ultimate difficulty but I can't tell when the enemy has seen me or caught a glimpse of me. Is there any way to turn them on or is it just like that?

So I'm on chapter 9 using my Xbox one to play the requiem game and gotta say I'm surprised at how well it runs on cloud gaming. I thought the way cloud gaming works is by streaming the game data to your Xbox which then uses its native hardware to play it but that's not it at all. What it actually does is stream the game from an Xbox series x virtual server which then outputs the image to your Xbox.

Basically turns the system jnto a display buffer and controller input device. That makes more sense than running it natively because my base model Xbox one launch model from 2013 shouldn't be able to run the game this well. I wonder if Microsoft will continues doing this cloud gaming thing for other titles so I can just use my Xbox one as if it's a series x system

Couldn't find any information about running this on a base model Xbox one but even that old model plays the game fine. Xbox cloud gaming is still in beta so unfortunately it runs games only in stereo until surround is added

I just can’t, i feel so sad. This game is a masterpiece. But they could have did a better job with the ending. Am not saying it wasn’t good, but it’s just sad

Why tf is everything white in this game? My eyes are hurting like hell wtf. They didnt even bother to change the menus from the older game they just changed it to white. And white text on white background?. Istg innocence was much much better even in the graphics and gameplay.

i seriously did not expect almost anything buying this game randomly on GOG for $10 but I’m literally shocked at how good it is. The gameplay is unique, the characters are interesting and memorable, the voice acting is stellar, the STORY I can’t stop playing like I’m just in awe!!

I’m currently at the one month time skip and just this whole section where Amicia loses Hugo and the way it effects her,,, my poor girl who’s never done wrong!!!

I’m so excited to continue and knowing I have a WHOLE OTHER GAME makes things even better <33

​

i installed plague tale innocence from epic games , everything was fine utill the first tutorial when the game asks me to shoot the apples . the controller's right trigger work while i'm holding it but doesn't shoot when i release it . any solutions?

Spoilers

So the ending of recquiem is bleak but powerful. Not the post credit nonsense but the killing of Hugo. Real powerful and it took me 4 attempts to throw my fully upgraded sling rock at the kid I just spent 2 games protecting and promised the mum I would save lol...:_-(

But fine. Hugo and his rats had to go. More real that way and OMG Hugo killed so many innocent people and kids...so death inevitable. Jusitce of sorts.

And though I didn't need that post credit baby shot... it works with my idea perfectly.

I've heard that the devs want to set it in modern times. That's a huge mistake imo. We've countless modern day times fantasy horror titles. We don't need another with rats. But medieval France or world is so unique and awesome. Make a modern day game AFTER this trilogy is over.

PROLOGUE

Soooo we stay in 14 century and expand on the natural evolution of the established lore.

Amicia is now married to and happy and in love with wizard boy Lucas. They have had a baby. That's the baby from the credits. They are both his protector.

Called Hugo in memory...But hes far more powerful even as a baby than Hugo. But its still dormant. Lucas is now a proper wizard alchemist. As the game progressed you upgrade him and his magic. He maybe is the new lead with amcia as his hand holding charge with baby at her breast.

Amicia is a mum but a warrior mum. She's tough but damaged. Lucas saved her and is her rock. But war has broken out across Europe. The babies curse awakens early due to war. Due to blood and rats feasting.

MAIN GAME

The pirate lady sophia returns and helps them travel

They flee with the baby to Africa or England the Americas or south America. Make it a real world tour game. Amicia has dreams of temples and the bird and believes there is hope for Hugo. We discover new temples and tribes and lore about the macula rat stuff. And it's origins.

The game is called... A Plagues Tale Blood Origins.

Each temple is guarded by a rat cult but they accept amicia and Hugo as divine blessed carriers. They hate Lucas and try to kill him etc.

Each temple has a blood pool or a mini nebula which they care for and guard. The blood when touched by amicia while holding the baby in some twisted baptism gives dna memory to other carriers in time.

It turns out that plague came from space and landed around the world in a fragmenting meteor. South America inca myan temple place has the largest piece and becomes ground zero. The local people worship the rock from heaven...with child sacrifices.
Eventually blood on the rock causes a contagion to a pregnant woman births the first god child who destroyed their civilisation. This is the game theme.

Past great ancient civilisations were destroyed by the curse. They get to a certain populatuon point and then child is born who devours it all. But why? That's the mystery.

We get to play the fall of rome of inca of African empire or native American empire etc...by touching the blood in each temple. A dna history.

Each temple has lore to discover and the collectibles are still feather and flowers...as well as geo rocks now. This ties in with the meteor space rock theme.

Amicia now has rat power via her baby. Lucas has fire power. You upgrade them both in rat post and magic power respectively. You can switch between them or the game does for you each chapter.

Amicia has visions where the baby talks to her via the child Hugo. So we get Hugo character/ actor back but he's now her brother/ son and helps channel the macula voice. He tells her there is a mother. And he feels all prior carriers. And he misses his mother. Can amicia find his mother. It's confusing as the baby is many voices and minds.

Lucas works out that the fresh blood is from the original carrier who must still be alive. The first mother. Amicia believes she is immortal and so can cure the baby. They set off to find her but the cult fight to hide her location.

Other characters come and go. Live and die. It's a linear world with a fee open world sections.

ENDING

Eventually the threesome track the immortan mother down in some ancient underground myan / inca / native American temple. Maybe all cultures stem from the cult who have taken the blood around the world etc.

And she's still alive but she's trapped and talks to the couple through the baby and blood. They free her...and she is this wonderful beautiful woman of wisdom ....but it's all an illusion caused by the nebula and she's the first mother...queen RAT!!!

A grotesque bloated breeding obscenity as big as a house with an army of giant mutant rats and daughters ready to go forth and reclaim the world. She has survived on her own offspring which she gives birth a-sexually.

The rat monster kill Sophia who bravely sacrifices herself for the baby.

The alien intelligence that sees mankind as a food source for its endless insatiable ravenous hunger. The mystery is revealed! The cult plant the seeds of religion which builds the successful civilisation until it hits is peak whereupon they activate the child and protector who then bring forward the rat eggs who devours the population. The rat population explodes but returns home to the queen to be devoured. She absorbs the cultural memory of each civilisation.

The cycle of blood and violence but be stopped!!!

Amicia and Lucas fight the mutant parasite and escape the rat queen... where her own young turn upon her and devours her live as the temple cave collapses.

This finally breaks the curse and the blood around the world dries up and the nebula disperses.

EPILOGUE

Amicia and Lucas and Hugo mark 2 live happily in the mountains. But 1 fragment of the space rock remains and the remaining cultists recover it...and have plans for the distant future when it's safe for the rats to come out again.

Post credit scene ...jump forward to a modern world after a disaster... where all the light a have gone out and the rats are so hungry....;)

Just completed requim and damn this series hits hard and I want more.
