《匹诺曹的谎言》开发者解释为何使用匹诺曹为游戏设定

在过去的几天里，这款类魂类游戏给大家留下了深刻的印象，尤其是故事设定，激起了玩家广泛讨论，最近Ji-Won也是解释了为何将匹诺曹作为主角。

"首先我们必须找到一个知名的背景，因为这是我们第一个魂类游戏，我希望他有一定的粉丝基础。"她说"所以我们首先想出了一个众所周知的故事，然后我们对它进行了自己的扭曲。" 

匹诺曹故事中的各种地点和环境推动了游戏的故事，Ji-Won表示原始的匹诺曹故事实际上有相当多的成人主题，这也很符合魂类的特点。"当你想到匹诺曹时，人们会想到迪士尼，但迪士尼把匹诺曹弄得有点幼稚，但实际上如果你看一下匹诺曹的原始故事，它是相当黑暗的，是为成年人准备的，"她说。"匹诺曹有着多样化的故事背景。"因此最终将匹诺曹设为主要人物。

游戏将于将于2023年的某个时候推出，登陆PS5、Xbox X/S系列和PC。

Lies of P has been the talk of the town over the last few days. Neowiz’ Bloodborne-inspired Soulslike action RPG has impressed with its recent Gamescom trailer and with a couple of subsequent meaty gameplay showings. And of course, one of the key aspects of the game that has caught quite a bit of attention is the fact that it’s based on Pinocchio. A Pinocchio Soulslike action RPG is quite a curious blend, especially given the game’s gothic aesthetic, but developer Neowiz had a few good reasons for taking that route. Speaking with IGN, Lies of P director Choi Ji-Won detailed three factors for why Neowiz decided to make Lies of P a Pinocchio game- the first being, as you might guess, the readymade fanbase that would attract. “We had to find a very well-known thing first, because this is our first Soulslike game, so we wanted to have the fanbase first,” Ji-Won said (transcribed by GamesRadar). “So we came up with a well-known story first and then we gave our own twist on it.” Ji-Won went on to explain that the original Pinocchio tale actually has quite a few adult themes, which also fits in with a Soulslike nicely. “When you think about Pinocchio, people will think about Disney, but Disney made Pinocchio a little childish, but actually if you look at the original Pinocchio story, it’s pretty dark and for adults,” she said. Finally, she explained that the variety of locations and environments that the Pinocchio story prominently features is another major boost for a game based on the story. “Pinocchio has very diverse backgrounds,” Ji-Won said. “Pinocchio starts at the house of Geppetto, and then he goes to the ocean, and he goes inside of the whale. So that’s how we found Pinocchio very attractive for our game.” Lies of P is due out sometime in 2023 for PS5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.
