The Sidewalk Philosophers - Songs From Rock'N'Roll Shit (Hidin' The Moon Records, 2024)

Tanto per esser chiari e provare a mettermi la coscienza a posto, almeno un po’, questa che state per leggere è una roba che proprio non si dovrebbe fare. L’etica, la professione di giornalista me lo impedirebbero. Mi dovrebbero impedire di recensire (ma anche presentare, informare, commentare) un album che sconta, con la mia persona, un evidente conflitto di interesse.  Bene, l’ho detto. In…

Mikhail and Vitali were inseparable; when they weren’t studying or getting into fights, they would hang out at Mikhail’s place to smoke and get drunk on cheap rum and vodka, to then pass out in each other’s arms and sleep most of the next day away. They promised each other— no matter what would happen— they would never leave each other’s side. Yet after starting university and college respectively, they did not see each other for a little over six years, leaving them both heartbroken and wondering what went wrong.

My thoughts and highlights on A Plague Tale: Tenebris:

Hugo doesn't know the difference between the role of a mother and sister in his life is a fair but sad point in the story (especially for Amicia who had her childhood taken away)

Beatrice is almost always right, but is terrible at making her points and comes across as an evil witch. Hot take: The woman has never done anything wrong in her life, she just has very poor communication skills 😂

I need to draw Hugo and Brume at some point because the idea of them is just too cute to stop myself ❤️

There are at least 3 good little moments between Beatrice and Amicia that sell me the mother/daughter relationship well, even in conflict, and I wish Requiem had at least one moment like that 🥺

Of all the masters Lucas had: Laurentius taught him the curiosity and discipline of learning; Beatrice taught him to trust his instincts and have the guts to defend his own theories; but André was the one who showed him that none of that matters if he doesn't put it to use to help others and - while Lucas was always a good person - he still needed to learn how to direct that goodness into action and seeing a person as a person, with feelings and that needs more than his systematic help. I believe it's because of what André taught him that Lucas became our golden boy in Requiem 🥰

Amicia getting annoyed when Beatrice treats her and Lucas like kids is great! This shows that the girl sees him as an equal, someone she can trust and have by her side in moments of crisis. The funny part is they met a bunch of kids and she still saw them as kids, even the older ones. But Lucas? Amicia doesn't even consider him an apprentice anymore and gets offended when someone offends him (soulmates behavior ✨)

The little interactions between Lucas and Amicia it's a whole meal for my ship heart 🥰. It's something about the respect between them. The way they care and support each other. And how relieved they feel to know that the other is okay. It's a special bond that makes me so happy and I can't compare it to anything else in this franchise.

The writer missed the opportunity to have Amicia hit Aurele straight in the head with a rock only for him to survive and she be like "oh no, this new sling doesn't have any upgrades 😯"

I wish Aurele and Milo were combined into one character. Both are minor religious fanatics villains with a lot of potential, but no enough time to develop that well. Adapting and mixing their story in some way could work. Just imagine Aurele/Milo survives Tenebris and appears in Requiem and Amicia comment "oh that's the guy who hunted us in Guyenne". Fans more attentive to the ending of Innocence would make the connection, those who read the book would have more context, and the character would feels more fresh and complex. Just a wishful thought, of course, they still good for small villains.

Tenebris made me realize that Amicia's plan at the end of Requiem to go live isolated in the mountains would be completely impractical. I can even imagine Hugo in his teens getting tired of living there with just trees and goats and eventually having another breakdown causing more disasters.

I know I probably missed a lot of details in the translation, but I started reading this just because I wanted more Plague Tale and, as a whole, that's exactly what I got with Tenebris.

I wouldn't be against it if they decided to do another book with a story about what happened after Requiem.

Yeah, give me Amicia and Sophia traveling on a boat bumping into Lucas and André somewhere and end up having to unravel the mystery of some cult recreating Vitalis' white rats.

(Oh, or maybe I'll just write a fanfic about it 👀)

I’m Here - Ch. 2 Preview

(Amicia x Lucas) A Plague Tale

Preview:

“No, mother!” A piercingly high-pitched wail of distress from nearby startled Lucas into action. “Leave her alone! I’ll kill you! I’ll kill all of you!”

He soon realised the voice was in fact Amicia’s… and she was furious.

This could attract attention. And not the good kind.

Lucas felt his heart sink into his stomach as his body suddenly violently trembled all over with the rise of adrenaline coursing through his veins. The pile of logs in his arms were immediately discarded to the ground. He sprinted over to where Amicia lay without hesitation, evading environmental obstacles such as large tree bark to avoid tripping over his own feet in the process.

Amicia grunted, rolling wildly around from side to side on the ground in a pile of crisp, yellow leaves scattered in piles among the soil. Her short braided hair intertwined with traces of dirt, leaves and tree bark.

Amicia almost resembled a wild injured animal before the brutal slaughter by the hunter. She thrashed, energetically kicking the air against a seemingly strong and invisible force with her leather boots.

Lucas was kneeled beside Amicia in an instant. Her face was clammy and cheeks scarlet. Her eyelids and forehead scrunched up tightly, as if expressing great internal pain before she verbally gasped out. He examined the sticky strands of hair that had escaped the braid, plastered to the slight sweat, the shine on her forehead.

A sign of a fever and a potentially delirious state?

This wasn’t good.

Water. Amicia needed water.

“No… no… let her go! Please!” Amicia implored in despair, shaking her head viscously as she whined.

“Amicia! You’re dreaming! Amicia, wake up!” Lucas firmly gripped hold of her shoulders against the ground, preventing her from twisting, turning and harming herself.

He realised this was a mistake a moment too late.

Amicia’s vibrant grey eyes snapped open. Lucas instantly noticed the dilated pupils and the bulging and alertness of the eyes, yet they simultaneously appeared clouded and hazy. She was there, but she wasn’t: a sign of semi-consciousness and a clear state of delirium, Lucas rapidly concluded.

It was though her soul had left her body, removing her from the present. She saw through him, as though he was all but transparent… a ghost. Instantly, they locked onto his ocean eyes, and penetrated deep into his soul like an arrow.

Lucas held his breath.

He knew that look too well for his own liking.

If looks could kill, he’d have been dead already.

It was an expressive mixture of wrath, resentment and a dark desire for revenge.

A look reserved for all of the people that had hurt her or her family: The ‘mercenary scum,’ the Inquisition, Vitalis, Nicholas, Vaudin, the count and countess… but never once had she targeted it at Lucas.

…Until that very moment.

And this was when he knew: The tables had turned.

He was the threat.

Amicia was feral, the predator to his prey. And she was ravenous for the stench of flesh and blood.

No. Remain calm. Remain strong.

It wasn’t really him she wanted.

Unfortunately, Lucas was too slow to take action…

Without warning, Amicia plunged towards him. She seized hold of the collar of his blue tunic with tightly clenched fists, knuckles whitening.

“Ami- don’t- Agh!” Lucas couldn’t prevent releasing a cry of pain as he was forced roughly onto his back.

And, with just one movement of deft skill, she’d exchanged the power dynamic, overturning their positions with great strength so that she was the one on top…

Now UP!

Let's talk about villains

And their connection with protagonists. And some related topics.

I finally finished it. This would be a loooong post. I'll provide reddit link below just in case.

Spoilers ahead!

A little preface

I've played Requiem 3 times – 3rd playthrough was mostly for hunting for good screenshots and finding anything I've overlooked in the first two. And it turned out it was good idea – at least bc some interesting details, especially about side characters, are simply "hidden" in the most dynamic scenes. Like, you're in a middle of a fight and characters start talking about the past while trying beat the shit out of each other. Given the fact that everyone wants you dead, it's a bit difficult to focus on dialogue (or subtitles). Or you can accidently interrupt character's line while approaching certain area too quick (I ran into it when Sophia was explaining that big tree prayer and then place for people who can't have children – I just didn't hear the whole 1st line and she switched to the next; sure, I could stay there for a while and then proceed, but still, I didn't expect new encounter so soon).

So, my main idea is: Asobo improved their character development compared to the previous game, especially ofc I mean antagonists. At the same time this little problem with dialogues and some plot decisions leaved me in, well, frustration? I love this game, but it broke my heart.

About Innocence

Innocence's antagonists look much more plain and simple imho. For me the rats were more terrifying – every time you meet them you feel desperate. Though they never were real villains, just mindless power. Like Lucas said – Macula cares neither for good or evil. Same for rats.

So you basically bump into horrors of war, decease, human cruelty and somewhere on the background the Inquisition looms. Vitalis and Nicholas are just another human beings driven by greed.

We know that Vitalis is grand inquisitor who tries to hunt down De Rune family and take the boy, use his blood in his own experiments with rats. A bit weird how he can send dozens of people to take down just one family and then just two kids (Hugo didn't even have "powers" back then) – and fail. Ofc it's for game's sake – otherwise it could end in the first chapter, but still. What do we know about him except that he's old (maybe even unnaturally old), rich and powerful enough for heaving the full stuff of alchemists working on Macula for him and soldiers hunting people he orders to hunt? I can't recall any specific details.

Same for Nicholas. He has really cool outfit and voice, can't argue with that. He's extremely loyal to Vitalis, he's ruthless fanatic and terrifying warrior. Maybe he has unnatural powers too? Like, Vitalis almost certainly experimented on something other than just rats. Arthur throws at Nicholas bunch of big-ass rocks – and he didn't die! Rats tried to devour him twice – he didn't die! He lit his sword and then whole armor – like not a big deal. Maybe he was alchemist too? We don't really know. Nothing about his or Vitalis' background.

So I personally didn't feel anything about Nicholas' death. Same for Vitalis. Both boss fights are bit annoying, but ok-ish. I was much more worried about the main characters relationship, I loved Hugo from the very beginning and was ready to kill anyone for this precious boy. Amicia grows as a character throughout the game, she becomes strong and carrying, real big sis for Hugo, and still has her own doubts.

Anyway, Asobo did a great job with Innocence and they really improved in storytelling in Requiem.

About Requiem

So, in this chapter we have antagonists who has quite good, interesting backstory. I wouldn't assume the Count and the Countess as main villains though – first, we confront with Vaudin (who's not really remarkable character, but I loved his voice and design anyway), then with Arnaud, then with the Count and his wife, and eventually… with ourselves. And the biggest power here is actually Macula. We can see at some point that Macula has some kind of… its own will? Especially when Amicia shout in a rat's nest that she won't give Hugo up – and shit immediately happens, we run from thousands of rats once again.

In this sense Requiem's more complex than previous game.

So, we hear little details about the Count here and there from almost very beginning. It's very easy to miss these details, but when I approach La Cuna, I remembered that little talks and thought "Ah, this is the Count everyone were talking about, alright".

In Innocence we meet the Inquisition in 1st chapter, they're after us the whole game. Here – whole districts are shutdown, plague's everywhere, some local conflicts happen here and there (wtf was all that mess with beekeepers anyway?). Everything feels more global than us. As soon as our - world's and Amicia and Hugo's – paths cross – boom, some shit happens.

Would eventually the Count and the Countess know about our existence if not for Arnaud's dumb revenge plan? Maybe not. Well, would we have ever met our antagonists, if we hadn’t gone to the island, to start with? Damn, our little family was surviving for half-year somehow, if not for that castle and beekeepers, they still could live peacefully as they wanted to. But the game constantly remind us: we can't live among people and be free from them, their vices, their greed, etc.

Returning to our antagonists.

We know the Count is very rich and powerful man. With one hand he can grant favors to people, with other – close districts, leaving people there to rot and die from a disease. Ofc when Amicia asks Arnaud if they should worry about count's army here, on the island, he says – different captain, different land. And we hear how soldiers speak about new captain – the Beast – so I guess arbitrariness is definitely possible. But again, the Count lives on the island and seems not very concerned about the rats and everything else… If we listen closely to his and Arnaud's dialogue during their duel, we can learn that leaving people behind is quite normal for the Count. Costs of war, so to speak. We can learn his "war veteran philosophy" from that "duel" with Amicia as well. Asobo scattered a lot of details everywhere actually.

At the same time the Count loves his wife so much that he found a whole goddamn cult just to fill her head with this Child of Embers legend, so she wouldn't try to hurt herself mentally and physically again.

We know the Countess can't bare the child, she had conflict with her parents (because of that?) and tried to commit suicide (if I understood correctly). Though she's quite charismatic cult leader, not gonna lie. And she has great influence over her husband. "She showed him another way" as he says himself.

So I fell into a trap. I actually felt sorry for our villains. Or pity. When we arrived to La Cuna, I hoped, like Hugo, that everything will be fine. More or less. Even though it was obvious that everything will go to hell.

What I personally didn't like about 12 chapter – villains turned to typical dumbass villains again. Instead of finish everything quick they start that pretentious bla-bla-bla and guess what? Shit happened. It reminds me Innocence, when Arthur should check out if Nicholas was dead. Wtf he was doing all that time? Right – nothing. And got wrecked because of it. Wtf the Count was doing while Hugo was killing his men? Well...

It feels like some plot events were made that way to lead us to finale we got. Though I wouldn't argue with this finale, it's sad and heartbreaking, but very meaningful. But some characters simply suffered for plot's sake. Like Beatrice, for example. I feel like she was more of an instrument for plot than a character. Firstly – to confront Amicia, secondly – to push Hugo into Macula. Even though they all reconciled, she actually understood her daughter, supported her, and then we almost immediately lose her. Well, thanks.

About parallels

But what else I like about the Count and the Countess backstory – aside from details Asobo added to these characters – is connection with protagonists.

Just think about it. We have two mentally ill people. They can't cure each other obviously, but they care for one another and prefer to live in a "wonderful dream", being delusional and deceived. And until they live there, on that island, disconnected from other world... well, they handle just fine.

Same for Amicia and Hugo. They can't find any cure for Hugo. Except for very fragile hope for calm life. But Amicia clung to Hugo's dream, even though it's a lie. Even Hugo in 9 chapter says that they (the Count and the Countess) are so wrong – "just like me". Like making a parallel. But when our siblings stay out of trouble, when the war, the plague, the slavers, the marauders don't concern them – they're fine.

And as soon as Amicia/Hugo and the Count/the Countess run into each other – they start annihilating everything around them. And eventually annihilate each other.

The only difference is the Count's fully aware of his own lies, while Amicia truly believes in her dream.

In Innocence Amicia comes a long way from "leave me alone, you little…" to "I'm going to kill everything and everyone for my brother". In Requiem she gets angry several times, but she stops herself from being rude with Hugo. Like when they wanted to change a bandage, and Hugo asks what color she wants: she clearly wants to say "I don't care", but immediately corrects herself. With Hugo she becomes more patient, calm, reasonable and protective. At the same time Amicia is quite obsessed with Hugo's dream and the whole idea of saving him, which causes harm not only to Hugo, but to all people around.

Same for Emilie. She's a calming presence for the Count, he becomes peaceful and nice, when she's around. As a composer, Olivier Deriviere, says in his walkthrough, she contains his anger and madness. And you can say the Count is obsessed with his wife as well: "everything in this world is rotten except for her" line, his wish for destroying the world after she's gone, all that.

They both – Amicia and the Count – are convinced that what they're doing for their loved ones is for good. But Hugo constantly sees bad things around him, fall more into Macula, become more frustrated during their journey. And Emilie's just falling into madness. She doesn't try to hurt herself anymore, yes, but now she's whole into that crazy idea of becoming a Mother for a God…

I can't find much parallels between Emilie and Hugo … except, maybe, for their way of dealing with things. When Hugo's angry, he calls the rats and tries to "eat them all". And he believes that's the right way to deal with cruelty he sees (even though Amicia tells he can't just kill people like this, but honestly, not that a 6yo kid can defend himself in any other way). Emilie's doing whatever she's doing and she's sure that's the right way.

(Only we keep in mind that Hugo's just a little innocent boy, and Emilie is in her early 30's (I believe?) and her psyche is broken).

And I noticed one interesting thing. When we play that hide-and-seek game with the Count, and he speaks his lines about Emilie and all that, Amicia says that he's lived in this lie for so long, that he can't tell it from the truth. The irony is it's exactly what she's doing – living in a dream, a lie she created.

Hugo's going to die? No, it can't be, we will find a solution. Hugo doesn't want to go to the tomb? No, you must, it's for your own good. Hugo thinks he's responsible for all deaths? No, it's rats/Macula/the Count/whatever.

Another topic I constantly see in the game is revenge. And how an obsession with revenge gets people into big trouble.

Amicia. I would assume this as a kind of revenge, when she starts killing soldiers at herbalist's hut. Like, "the world hurts", and she wants to respond to it the same way. But the most important moment is Beatrice's death and following Hugo's anger. Amicia wants to "spoil their blood", she wants revenge so badly, that she basically pushes Hugo into more anger. As a result, we have:

Hugo's almost dead (even though he "wakes up" later, that massacre certainly affected him badly);

Emilie's dead which causes the Count's fall into complete madness followed by events of 15-16 chapters;

Arnaud. He wants the Count dead, so he will do whatever it takes to reach his goal. He doesn't care if lots of people will die once Hugo release the rats. And eventually he got our siblings into trouble along with himself.

The Count. Thinks he can take control over the boy with such disastrous powers and make the whole world burn.

Conclusion

In one of his walkthroughs Olivier Deriviere said they didn't want to make villains plainly bad. Like, bad people are bad in every aspect. But instead they developed more complex characters, and I believe, they did an excellent job. You may hate these characters, you may care little for their motifs or background, but the devs created amazing story.

And main characters' problems, conflict aren't based only on confrontation with villains, but on their decisions and mistakes.

So, as you understand – it's just my interpretation (maybe a bit chaotic, and my English is complete disaster, sorry for that), but I'm open for any discussion.

A Plague's Tale: Requiem Review

Finished this up over the weekend and I greatly enjoyed it, enough that I felt like writing a post about it. SPOILERS BELOW.

Gameplay-wise I love the addition of the crossbow, made it a lot easier to cross difficult sections. I do think it was a missed opportunity to not offer multiple endings based on how you played, especially given the way Requiem teases a sequel (more on that below). Hugo was clearly shown to be taking lessons from Amicia, and I think the ending would have been stronger if the way Hugo acted was shaped by how bloodthirsty Amicia became. If you went through killing as many people as possible, then I think the ending we got would have been perfectly fitting. If on the other hand you used stealth and restraint the way Lucas urged, then I think a more happier ending would have been a suitable reward. La Cuna itself was gorgeous, I haven't had that much fun exploring since Toussaint in Witcher 3: Blood & Wine. The music was amazing, I loved how beautiful and sad the main menu theme was, hell that whole menu hits hard when you realize what it's actually showing you.

It's almost funny how committed Requiem is to undoing the relatively happy ending of Innocence. Despite the loss of their father, their home, and two of their orphan friends who gave their lives to stop Vitalis, Amicia and Hugo ended the previous game relatively well off. They reunited with their mother and made a new friend in Lucas, it was even implied that maybe the Macula was dormant for good after Hugo passed the last threshold, and was able to control the rats via the power of love. Requiem takes a hammer to all of that. Beatrice? Dead. Hugo? Dead. There's no cure for the Macula and Amicia's attempts to find one only made things worse, but as seen with the story of Basil the Order would have done no better. Poor Hugo was fated to end up in Marseille and unleash the plague rats, all they did was delay the inevitable. Only Sophia of all people comes out relatively ok in the end, abandoning smuggling for legal work that will let her live longer.

When it comes to the ending itself I'm mixed on it. Hugo dying was no real surprise, after he destroyed the Red City I figured either he or Amicia was biting it at the end. Once he unleashed the rats on La Cuna I knew he was a goner. Too many innocents died because of Hugo for him to simply retire happily to the mountains with his mother and sister. Amicia herself was also very selfish, willing to overlook the suffering Hugo was unleashing because she couldn't bear to let him go after all that she had lost already, and how they bonded. It's somewhat understandable given how young both of the De Runes are, but there were a few times where I questioned if the writers realized how unlikeable the two DeRunes came off. All the same, I did empathize with her when she went to her brother's grave to mourn one last time before heading out to try to find the next Carrier and Protector, to help them the way Aelia helped her and Hugo.

Ironically she may have gotten her wish given the post credit tease. Aelia and Basil predated Amicia and Hugo by almost 1000 years or so if I recall, the only help Aelia could give was leaving some items behind for the next Protector to find. Judging by the sound of a heart monitor, and maybe high heels, it looks like the next A Plague's Tale game will be jumping to present day (are they really going to say the Macula caused Covid?). Poor Amicia lost her entire family and her quest to find the next Carrier and Protector is doomed to failure, because they won't be born until centuries later. All she can do for them is what Aelia did for her: leave some items/records for the next duo to find. Given that her story appears over I reiterate that it was a shame we didn't get multiple endings based on your playstyle. Hugo dying as an inevitability could have been balanced out with Beatrice and Arnaud possibly surviving based on your actions for example, because man the ending for Requiem is almost the inverse of Innocence. Innocence was mostly sweet with a few bitter aspects whereas Requiem is mostly bitter with a few sweet aspects. Amicia has Sophia for company, and I guess Lucas if he ever returns, but otherwise she's a total failure. Fails to save her father, her mother, her brother, fails to find the next Carrier and Protector, her story is a full blown tragedy.

Perhaps Asobo will try and give her a brighter ending if we learn her ultimate fate in the next game. Maybe she'll be instrumental in helping the next duo succeed where she failed because of some action she took during her travels after Hugo's death. I wager that she and Lucas will get together and have kids, and it wouldn't surprise me if the next protagonists are descendants of hers. Given how important family was to Amicia, that's likely as happy an ending as she could possibly get.

Noel gave a knock at the frame of the office door, not at all surprised it was open considering who was sitting in it. The eyes raised and he watched the tension start and then shift. “My brother has a way with people.” The understatement of the century. “Likely why we don’t get to pick our family.” The reaper smirked not moving from where he stood. “We’ve not formally been introduced. Don’t worry, I am analyzing you.” Noel teased before falling slightly more serious. 

“Noel Gaudet, resident therapist, though they certainly inflate my title.” He shifted back to look out at the infirmary having a good idea what it was Vitaly saw day in and out. Noel himself was a doctor. He did have a general practitioner degree. He could practice medicine, but had far more fun unraveling trauma and occasionally causing it. He leaned back onto the door frame and took in the actual castle doctor. 

“If you run into anyone you think might be a danger to themselves, feel free to call me in for a consult or to help. That goes for you as well. Even doctors need a doctor.” He winked. “Unless you’re smitten with Lucien.” It taking all of Noel not to laugh at the thought. The only person capable of handling his brother to any degree was Raphael De Luca and somehow Kaden, which was still a medical mystery to him. He wasn’t ruling out some kind of deeply repressed mental illness in the Texan.
