Unravelling Stellar Blade: What the Characters and Locations Tell Us

Ойындар

The story of Stellar Blade, the upcoming video game for Playstation 5, is shrouded in mystery. We've been given nuggets of information in the two amazing trailers released so far. This analysis takes a look at the characters and locations shown in the two trailers, and strives to put together what the story may be. The story seems to take influences from popular culture that I have always been a fan of, including Ghost in the Shell, The Matrix, Cyberpunk and Studio Ghibli. Shift Up (the studio behind Stellar Blade) seems to be crafting a story that will incorporate those influences into their video game, all while being original and something that is truly their own. I really cannot wait to play this game. While we all wait, I've compiled my thoughts into this video that discusses a possibility of what some of the story to this amazing looking game may be.
So come enjoy this video. Let me know what you think about the characters we meet and the locations we see from the two trailers, and what they tell us about the potential story. Let me know if your thoughts were they the same or different than mine. Or even tell me something new you learned from watching this video. Thanks for being here. Keep gaming, and be happy.

    I will say the thing I like about the two trailers we have seen is it doesn't show you everything the games about It just shows you like a little bit and leaves a little mystery in the game to figure out the whole story and I love that I miss when games did that or maybe I'm wrong but it felt like they used to do trailers for story related games where they would show you a little bit but wouldn't reveal too much of the plot right away

Hard to tell.

    Another great job ! When Eve arrives in the room where the boss is, there's a screen showing a map of the world with 4 points marked on it (5.20min in the SoP trailer). There is a good quality image of this room on the official website. On the far left, the status of these 4 points, which are called spire, is displayed. Eve seems to be in the only station still 'online', the others have the status 'unknow'. So I've got the impression that there are 4 orbital stations and that they're directly linked to Earth by some kind of lift (if you watch the 1st teaser trailer, you see a broken spire). The thing I'm wondering is : is the story going to take place in different parts of the world? Plus it's shown quickly, but it seems clear that Eve is going to use a mecha, which we see in space and also land on earth in front of Lily. It's all speculation, and I can't wait to find out the story!

    One thing that would be inserting is at the beginning, Eve is with a squad then she ends up sacrificing herself to save Narissa (the other eve with long hair I'm calling Narissa) then Eve some how orbits Earth which she ends up taking damage losing her abilities. I really like the look of Narissa she gives me Shadow vibes and might have rivalry with Eve like Sonic and Shadow. Eve is the main protagonist and is sick (sonic) and Narissa while her teammate has disagreements from time to time on how to handle certain situations, she looks even sicker than Eve (Shadow) seriously the way she blocked that monster`s attack without even looking is sick her chest is even bigger too lol. Like you said and from what we see, Eve and Narissa will fight side by side together, as for her getting the infection it would be that she got infected deliberately coz she wants to beat Eve in terms of strength (like Shadow) however, I hope she isn`t killed but instead starts to worm up up to Eve and both become havok on the battlefield fighting the monsters, who know maybe they will be a QTE of them fighting together that would be sick as heck.

On the official Sony website, it says that Tachy has good acumen (decision making skills) and survival skills. Maybe she decides to fuse with the Naytiba in order to survive :). Fun speculating with you.

The model they used on the advertisement, correct me if I'm wrong but, that looks starkly similar if not identical to Eve's original model from the Project Eve Trailer way back when.

    《星辰之刃》的主角伊芙, 我認為這是一個仿生人。 證據如下: 貼膚裝甲服:可以獨立發光,但人類沒有能量。 仿生人體的內部熔爐可以為套裝充電。 髮飾變身刀片:當你開始戰鬥時,取出武器,髮飾就會消失。 無人機裝甲炮:原因與第一點相同。 仿生人體的內部熔爐可以為無人機武器充電,但人類卻不能。 領隊太奇 據推測,她可能已經從感染中倖存下來。 期待更多遊戲預告片的發布, 或者遊戲會立即發布 哈哈 Eve, the protagonist of "Stellar Blade", I think it is a bionic person. The evidence is as follows: ​Skin-fitting armor suit: It can emit light independently, but humans have no energy source. The bionic human body's internal furnace can recharge the suit. ​The hair accessory transforms into a blade: When you start fighting, take out your weapon and the hair accessory disappears. Drone armored cannon: The reason is the same as the first point. The bionic human body's internal furnace can charge drone weapons, but humans cannot. Team leader Tachi It is speculated that she may have survived the infection. Looking forward to the release of more game trailers, Or the game will be released immediately HaHa

    Craig, to be fair you've got a MISUNDERSTANDING of the word "myth" just like many people today. "Myth" has become an urban legend kinda word where people think it's SYNONYMOUS with "fake" or "made up". That's not what myth means in its origination. Because it CAN be stories of unknown or unverifiable occurrences that DOESN'T mean the same as "fake". Myths can be paradigms or ethics a culture adheres too that have been ingrained through millennia or a modern "myth" could be the reverence for freedom and liberty that modern Western Countries have. Now to be OBJECTIVE and fair many stories in the Bible (and nearly every religious text) CANNOT be independently/objectively verified therefore we can categorize them as "myths". That's why the Bible says you need FAITH because faith is belief in the absence of "evidence" that's why even Jesus (real name Yeshūa) even told his disciples you're blessed if you believe and HAVE SEEN but you're even MORE BLESSED of you believe WITHOUT seeing 🙏
