More than a month ago, when the 2.1 version of "Collapse: The Dome Railway" (hereinafter referred to as "Star Iron") was updated, the main line of nearly five hours with a large amount of information did not satisfy me, but made me more anxious.
There is no other reason. At the beginning of Pinocchio's plot, a "werewolf killing" was performed, which caused many players' CPUs to enter the "overload state". The new main line updated in 2.2 will tell all the answers to all the problems, ending the "space werewolf killing". Believe me, most of the "pioneers" are online on the day of the 2.2 update, and can't wait to participate in the follow-up plot in person.
In fact, the plot of 2.2 not only recovers the foreshadowing of the first two versions, such as the clockmaker's secret, the harmonic ceremony, the death of the firefly and the robin, but also complements the context of the story for players.
As the Star Dome Train fell to Liumeng Reef, we learned that the real identity of the watchmaker was Mikhail, who was once an unknown passenger on the Star Dome Train.
The explorer and his companions traveled to the Milky Way with the meaning of "pioneering", and liberated and founded Pinoconi. Later, in order to solve Pinocchio's star core crisis, he came up with the "talent introduction plan", and invited the whole galaxy in the name of "the heritage of the 'clockmaker'" to attract outsiders, which is the origin of the harmonic ceremony.
Gallagher, once considered by many players as the "black hand behind the scenes", is actually a companion of the clockmaker, who is still fighting for Pinocchio. When the leading group was at Liumeng Reef, Gallagher revealed that it was he who sent invitations to all forces in the name of "clockmaker", hoping someone would save Pinocchio.
In Pinocchio's dream, the watchmaker turned into Misha, the doorman of the White Dream Hotel, by chance, guiding the leading group to inherit his "pioneering" will.
As for the secret hidden in this harmonic ceremony, from the story of Sunday with the robin bird and the conversation between the two people and the dreamer, we can know that behind the harmonic ceremony, it actually focuses on the choice of Pinoccanian and Pinoccanian people towards harmony or order.
Sunday and robin promised to build a paradise like an ideal country, and only the power of "order" can make him sacrifice himself to build a paradise without pain, so that the beautiful dream created by Pinocchio can truly become a reality.
After we realized this, Sunday also chose to "draw a sword" with the train set because the plan was seen through. He became "God Sunday" by virtue of the power of "order", and let the "dream" and "reality" blend.
When the train set clashed with Sunday and Dan Heng defeated Sunday with Xianzhou reinforcements, we naively thought that we could go to the next planet to continue to explore, but at this time we encountered an unexpected reversal - it turned out that all this was a dream. After entering Pinocchio, the leading group has fallen into the dream woven by "God Sunday".
With the help of fireflies and black swans, we finally found and got rid of the first layer of dreams. Under the guidance of Huang Quan, he once again went deep into the dream and defeated the real God Sunday by virtue of his pioneering will and the fetters with robins and other partners.
In this process, players also learned the real name of Huangquan——
For this name, I believe that the old players in the collapse series must be very familiar with it. If combined with the previous meaningful dialogue between Lao Yang and Huang Quan, the name "Thunder Shoot Clothes" may really have some special meaning.
In addition to this suspense, although the ceremony of harmonic music ended, the story of Pinocchio continued.
At the end, we were able to know that Miss Emerald of Star Peace Company was coming, and Poteo was also looking for a senior executive of the company.
The mysterious fireworks still have many secrets. In the story, she once pretended to be a robin and gave a passer-by several bombs as gifts. What's the meaning of this behavior? Does it mean that she has already known the truth of the dream?
Judging from the remaining doubts of the current plot, although the next version 2.3 is the end of Pinocchio's story, there are still many key information additions to "talk about the future".
It is worth mentioning that Liuying, as an important teammate, did not appear in the final battle. You should know that before the protagonist group was able to escape from the dream, it was the firefly that reminded everyone to pay attention to the dream with two deaths.
According to the script prediction given by Elio, Liuying will have a third death. We still have to draw a big question mark about the form of the third death and whether there will be Liuyou's long-awaited wish to "seek the meaning of life".
Returning to the whole Pinocchio story itself, it will be found that all the plots are based on the question of "why does life sleep?".
Everyone has different answers to this question. Sunday hopes to create a Utopia and bind all the people of Pinoccania with order. And everyone who falls into the dream of order will only have an emotion of "satisfaction". In the eyes of Sunday, people's pain originates from endless desire. Only by being satisfied can they achieve the carefree pursuit.
However, watchmakers and other pioneers who established Pinocchio and the leading group who inherited their pioneering will prefer to face reality and follow the choice of people's self will.
Pinocchio's dream is illusory after all, and we will wake up from this illusory dream one day.
I think this is also what the production team of Star Iron wants to convey. The real meaning of "pioneering" is to pursue beautiful things in the uncertain reality. As Mikhail said in the plot, everyone has emotions, and it is complex and diverse emotions that encourage people to move forward in reality and experience the ups and downs. No matter what you experience, you will not escape and dare to move forward, which is just the will of pioneering.
In addition to the plot, we can also see that the game still maintains a high level of character building ability. Take Sunday as an example. As the ultimate BOSS, he is not the villain of extreme evil. He has the lofty idea of saving Pinocchio, and insists repeatedly to fulfill his commitment to his sister. But the failure of Sunday is also inevitable, because he killed the right of others to choose the future, that is, to use sophistry to prove that as long as the bird is protected in the cage, it can avoid the fate of falling to the ground, but we do not know that freedom is the most coveted and valuable thing. Maybe the bird that can't fly to the sky is not a robin, but its own Sunday.
The ceremony of harmonic music has officially ended, and where the story of the star of the gala will go, we can only hope that the following story can officially unveil the mystery. Considering the excellent and stable content ability of Star Iron, I believe that today's expectations should be worthwhile.
