New year, new video again, 2025!
新的一年 新视频来了 2025!
Not gonna lie, this video was meant to be part of a much bigger thing for a vid where you'd get to see the aftermaths for dying to enemies/bosses in the game through a short cutscene, when I got to writing for an amalgamate death it got way bigger and stopped just being said short cutscene, being reason as to why it's so 'out there' compared to all the rest.
说实话,这个视频本来是更大一个项目的一部分,原计划是做一个视频,展示玩家在游戏中被敌人或Boss击败后的小剧情。写到融合怪(Amalgamate)死亡场景的时候,原本只是一段短片的内容却越写越多,最后完全超出了最初的构想,也因此它看起来和其他部分“格格不入”
Looking back at this one now that it's done, realistically, there wouldn't be much of a divergence here, you'd either just die or somehow spare the amalgams and Alphys would come in, putting everything back in place for the true pacifist route-- but, also glad I pushed it to it's extreme anyway, when else would something like this even be explored otherwise?
现在回头看看这个作品,实际上,这里本来不会有太多分支的。你要么死掉,要么奇迹般地饶恕了融合怪,接着Alphys就会出现,把一切恢复原样,进入真·和平路线。不过我还是很高兴自己把这个内容推向了极致,不然什么时候还能探讨类似的东西呢?
Aside from the small tangent, the ending was not clear cut at all since the idea came from the initial death scene, a few different ideas for the ending ranged from fighting Asgore and absorbing him into your mass, fighting the 'hotland squadron' mentioned on the phone, having Flowey still swoop in if the souls were shown but being unable to kill you because... well... Amalgam, absorbing all your friends in the end, ect.
In the end I decided to go for something a little bit more light, in the spirit of the route you're on, the amalgams were never shown to be malicious towards monsters anyway.
另外,关于这个视频的结局,也经历了一些小波折。最初这个想法是从死亡场景延伸出来的,关于结局有几个不同的思路,比如:和Asgore战斗并吸收他成为你的一部分;与电话中提到的“热域小队”战斗;或者,如果显示了灵魂的话,Flowey突然出现试图杀你,但因为你是融合体而失败;甚至还有吸收所有朋友的结局等等。
最后,我选择了一个相对轻松的结局,符合这条路线的氛围。毕竟,融合怪在游戏中从来没有表现出对怪物的恶意。
