Chapter 755: It's Not a Mistranslation (Second Update)

The content of Chen Mo's Weibo is very simple.

"THE LAST OF US, the new game, is called THE LAST OF US. Note: This is not a mistranslation. ”

The text is just two sentences.

The players are quite confused, why do you deliberately indicate that this is not a mistranslation??

At first glance, many players think that this translation is quite appropriate, isn't this English the meaning of the end of the United States?

But soon there will be better English players popularizing science, and the literal translation of the English name should be "the last one among us to survive", and the Chinese and English titles really don't mean the same thing.

Many players realized that it was no wonder that Chen Mo deliberately pointed out that this was not a mistranslation, if it was not indicated, someone would definitely laugh at Chen Mo's English level......

IF "THE END OF AMERICA" WERE TO BE TRANSLATED STRICTLY, IT WOULD BE "THE LAST OF USA", IN SHORT, US SHOULD BE CHANGED TO USA、., IF WE WERE TO USE US, IT SHOULD MEAN "WE".

However, since Chen Mo has said that this is not a mistranslation, that is to say, the Chinese name and the English name are not the same meaning, and the two names are not translated, but taken separately.

Many players are wondering, why do you want to do more?

But on second thought, I think it's quite interesting to get these two names.

IF YOU USE A TRANSLATION, WHETHER IT IS FROM CHINESE TO ENGLISH OR ENGLISH TO Chinese, it seems that it will lose its original meaning, and if it is called "the last of usa" or "The Last of Us", although it is not bad, it is not easy to remember and not loud.

THEREFORE, THE Chinese NAME IS "THE END OF AMERICA", AND THE ENGLISH NAME IS "THE LAST OF US", WHICH SEEMS TO BE REALLY APPROPRIATE!

In fact, the final interpretation of the name is still with the creator, and the creator is whatever it is called. Just like a famous writer Jia Pingwa, the word concave originally did not have the pronunciation of "a", but only in his name, this character is pronounced "a".

Reading this kind of character not only does not appear to be uneducated, but insists that only people who should read "ao" will be seen as uneducated......

To put it bluntly, this kind of thing is up to the parties themselves.

Chen Mo is like this now, the official Chinese name is "The End of the United States", naturally no one will say that this Chinese name is a mistranslation, but will feel that there is a very wonderful connection between Chinese and English names, it seems that the translation is very accurate, and then it is a mistranslation, in fact, the author deliberately took two names, and both names are very appropriate and easy to remember.

……

Many players feel that Chen Mo's game name is a bit domineering!

"The End of America" ...... Is this going to destroy the whole world or what's going on?

Many people think that this will be a disaster theme or a war theme when they see this name, but the previous gossip has actually spread all over the world, and this is mostly a zombie theme.

America after the zombie outbreak? Well, that sounds like that! That is, the grapevine is actually true?

Players clicked on the video.

……

After the Thunder Games logo, there is a brief black screen.

A female voice whispered, "What if this is true?" ”

The picture appears in the chaotic streets, people are running frantically for their lives, and the road side is blazing with fires, and the picture is violently shaking, as if you can feel how panicked the people are running.

But the picture of just four or five seconds is completely silent, silent and depressing.

The screen went black again, and a deep male voice said, "Do you need me to remind you that there's something outside?" ”

The sunlight shone into the gloomy room, and a misshapen shadow appeared on the rusty cabinet, humanoid, walking upright, but also constantly shaking, emitting a palpitating roar.

"Once upon a time, I had people I cared about."

The scene cuts to a middle-aged man and a young girl walking in a wooded forest, followed by a close-up of a little girl. The little girl, who was supposed to be at school, was very skillfully loading the pistol.

I don't know when, the faint background sound gradually fades in, and the simple guitar sound seems to contain a faint sadness, telling something.

"But right now, that thing has only one use, and that's to kill you."

After that, there were a lot of fragmented conversations.

"I need you to smuggle something out of town."

"She'll be a liability, Joel."

"All I need is some simple gear to hit the road."

"I guess it has something to do with that girl?"

"It must have something to do with that girl."

"It can't be worse than staying here, right?"

"We've been living on our own, Joel."

"No, we're trying to survive!"

"This is our chance!"

"Say no more, Tess!"

"You're taking a risk."

A corpse hanged from a tree.

Gun-wielding thugs.

Abandoned mansions.

Joel and Ellie are hiding behind a wall, and thugs with shotguns are searching for their location.

"What do we do now?"

"Don't waste a single bullet."

Zombies, villains, poison gas, blood-stained knives, homemade bombs......

"We've been through so much and put in so much effort, it should always be meaningful, right?"

In Ellie's last question, the screen goes black and the video stops abruptly.

……

After reading the promotional CG, many players are confused.

Where is this? I don't understand!

Obviously, the main technique of this video is "demolition", which is to break down the complete plot of the game into many fragments, interspersed with character dialogue, so that players can get a few words about the plot without any spoiler effect.

But judging from this video alone, players don't get much useful information and don't see where the highlights of the game are.

Combat system? Play? Character building? It doesn't seem to be anything special.

The only highlight may be the plot, but the plot is not revealed at all.

There are also players who are trying to speculate on the plot of "The End of America", and even really deduce something from this video.

This is indeed the end of the world after the zombie outbreak, and the protagonist should be this middle-aged uncle Joel. From what he said, it is clear that he has endured a lot of struggles to survive in the last days, and once lost the love of his life, but now he is involved with a little girl.

Other than that, there is no specific information to be found.

Many players are a little disappointed, and although this promotional video is also quite good, it is not as amazing as when Uncharted first came out.

I can't see too many eye-catching settings from the video, you know, Josh Wilson also added a lot of special weapons, special zombies and survival gameplay to his game, and as a result, "The End of America" is a very ordinary traditional zombie theme!
