The Thing: Remastered resurrects the previously out of print The Thing game, transplanting it to modern platforms and giving it a tweak or six. But how does it fit into the events of the two movies? Is The Thing: Remastered a sequel or prequel? Here's the answer.
The Thing: Remastered is a sequel to the events of John Carpenter's The Thing movie. Il se déroule peu de temps après les événements du premier film et vous fait, dans le cadre d'une équipe militaire spécialisée, enquêtant sur Outpost 31, une station de recherche antarctique tout mais destroyed.
So you turn up to find the base itself in a poor state, whole chunks of it having burnt down. However, it's clear that The Thing itself has survived, and its various forms serve as the game's enemies. The base's damaged state means that only certain areas are enclosed, so it's easy to freeze to death.
Le jeu vous voit également visiter la base norvégienne, qui a été présentée à la fois dans le film original et le film Prequel, bien que The Thing de 2011 soit sorti neuf ans après ce match. But despite being a sequel, The Thing: Remastered’s technology does feel more contemporary.
So is The Thing: Remastered canon? Basically, yes. John Carpenter has had positive things to say about the game (via Sci-Fy) and actually has a cameo in the game. Un problème que je prends avec le canon est qu'il résout le mystère de qui a survécu au film original, mais ne laissez pas cela vous empêcher de profiter du jeu. The creature's behaviour seems off, but there's a potential in-game explanation for that.
Je vais entrer dans le territoire de spoiler ici, mais si vous vous demandez si vous avez besoin d'avoir regardé la chose pour jouer la chose: remasterisée , la réponse est non. But you'll get much, much more out of it if you have watched the movie. I'd seriously recommend you watch the film since it's fantastic; the special effects are amazing, yes, but what really makes it a joy to watch is the growing paranoia between the station's occupants.
Donc, si vous ne prévoyez pas de regarder le film original en premier et que vous êtes prêt pour certains spoilers, je vous mettrai au courant de ce que vous devez savoir sur la chose .
The Thing is an organism that crashes to Earth in a flying saucer, and crawls out and freezes, where it's found by a Norwegian dig team. The Thing can absorb, imitate and infect other lifeforms, turning them into more Things. Even a single cell from the organism can turn a creature, humans included, into Things. It can also mutate into horrifying forms when discovered, but in the movies it tries to remain hidden.
However, while Things can impersonate people perfectly, apparently absorbing their memories, they can't recognise other Things. The Thing infects and/or kills everyone from the Norwegian base and in John Carpenter's film, an infected dog reaches Outpost 31.
It eventually takes over or kills most of the researchers. They come up with a blood test to determine who is human; the blood of a Thing will react violently if heat is applied. Despite this, only two survive, Childs and MacReady. La base est en flammes (le feu est le seul moyen sûr de le tuer) et à mesure que le film se ferme, ils se préparent à se congeler à mort, ne sachant pas si l'autre est humain.
La réponse est donc la chose: remasterisé une suite ou une préquelle est que c'est une suite et, bien que ce ne soit pas obligatoire, vous obtiendrez plus du jeu si vous avez regardé la chose de John Carpenter.
