A Plague Tale: Innocence - Story Explained

[@tangbein]

I liked the detail at the end how those two guys,standing guard Infront of the marked, refused Amicia and Hugo entrance because some guys had been asking about a girl and a boy. They did it to save them.

[@uniwolfgamer1094]

It was a fair wasn't it?

[@VincentNoot]

The game is really cool because of its historical accuracy. The rats and magic got exaggerated and made into a fictional element, but it takes place in 1348, which is one year into the worst 3 years in history of the Plague epidemic. It's also one year into the beginning of the Hundred Years' War between the English and the French. They didn't just make this stuff up. It gives you some real insight of how horrible it was for some people to live in those times.

[@screamingopossum7809]

Add on the fact MANY people had no idea what was going on until for some it was too late. Information didn't travel fast. Letters would take weeks sometimes months to get to someone, if it make it to the recipient at all. Current information of what was going on in any given place was hard to come by if there were no survivors. We thought the World Wars were terrifying because people were up to date with the news, imagine not knowing your country was at war with another country and suddenly being invaded with no warning or way to defend yourself.

[@wmad202]

You forgot to mention that once the Church caught word of Vitalis' true intentions, they had him excommunicated. You can find this out when the bishop in green robes arrived to meet him during that one cutscene. I think it's also implied that the Inquisition is no longer working as a branch of the Church because of this.

Just finished the game a few days ago and I'm really excited for the sequel. Innocence was so unexpectedly good!

I've tried a BUNCH of times to get into this game over the course of about 2 years, but couldn't play more than 30 minutes. Finally, I just pushed through and I am BEYOND grateful that I did. This game is an absolute masterpiece and I can't wait to start the sequel tomorrow.

[@lmaoez8785]

So how's the sequel?

[@nythmn5589]

@@lmaoez8785I played the sequel first without knowing it was a sequel. I thought it was kinda mid honestly with how the gameplay was structured around the same stealth gameplay loop, so the only thing carrying it was the story itself. I thought some of the acting was over the top and some of the decisions that amicia made were kinda dumb but once I got past the halfway point I guess it got a little more interesting but only because I thought it was trippy. I don’t really know about the ending and how it just kinda cuts off but idk maybe if I played the first game I would have been a bit more connected to the characters and story. The graphics weren’t bad and the music was pretty cool but imo the gameplay was kinda very bland and dumb

[@ryans413]

It’s not really something you play yea it has collectables to find and weapon upgrades but it’s more of a game you experience then play very story driven but I liked it it gave me Game Of Thrones vibes minus the supernatural stuff. I liked all the lighting tricks how you can distract the rats use the rats to kill people break guys lanterns that lead to the rats killing them.

requiem is one of the only story games that has made me feel every emotion possible. that being said, i havent played many story games.

[@cookiewoke1899]

There are a few questions I have about this game that I'm not sure are answered. 1) why does the plague seemingly end just because Vitalis dies? 2) Why were the people Hugo cared about at the villa untouched by the rats? 3) why do the rats give up on attacking Amicia and Lucas just because they finished the elixir?

[@Faiz51]

1) Maybe Hugo control the rat thus end the plague? 2) This is the biggest mystery so far ... 3) Maybe the elixir have something magical? But if that is the case, why they didn't mass produce the elixir? Or divided them into small container to make something like necklace/talisman since rat don't chase anymore...

[@mithila8974]

1) It didn't end. 2)Hugo is connect to rats. Maybe it's the reason, I'm not sure 3)I think Lucas said it because rat felt it or something like that.

[@some-du1kc]

3) it's comanding them just like Hugo can comand the rats. It's maybe like smoke to bees if you know what I mean

Started this video to refresh myself before going into requiem. Thanks for giving me ptsd 10 seconds into the video by showing that god forsaken cart part at the end. I'm not exaggerating when i say it took me over an hour to beat that 3 minute segment of the game. Almost beat it about half an hour in only to get shot by an arrow because i got so excited it was over that i messed up. Overall still very happy i stuck it out because this game was awesome! :)

[@eloiloi9342]

Agreed!

[@uniwolfgamer1094]

I tapped this video to answer a question I have. I didn't achieve that. But I will tell you what was thee question: Why didn't the rats eat the servants or the father and instead threw him into a well? Did it have to do with Hugo, as in the rats somehow knew Hugo cared about them and didn't want them gone? If it did, why did the rats still eat Amicia, him and his mother when he was with her?

[@some-du1kc]

We don't know yet. It's most likely a plot hole but maybe we'll see in the second part They are trying to eat Hugo Amicia and the others because Hugo wasn't able to command them and that time. And later on it will be to exhausting for him to use all the time. In non crucial situations light will most likely be the way to go

[@ryans413]

[@MattMBZ]

I played this when it was released, but forget everything that happened. Started Requiem but needed a reminder.

[@JustDoIt12131]

But there is so much that has not been explained: - Why do the rats behave in such a weird way? They build strange black structures, are afraid of light but not of humans and form "tornadoes" of rats. - Why does the Prima Macula allows it's host to control rats? - Why can Vitalis control white rats and not black rats, and Hugo just the opposite? - Why don't white rats fear light, while black ones do? - Why does Vitalis obtain the Macula control from Hugo's blood while his family doesn't have it? - Where does the Prima Macula come from? With so much being unknown, there is actually very little we actually know about the story.

[@eduardobarajas8137]

Probably the answer is late and you already know, During the game they answer you all the questions, - during the mission where you go back home to get the secret lab, Lucas while explaining a painting he said that the plague isn't something new, that had happen time before and kind of give you that on Rome back at century IV or VI the plague happened. - Lucas also while the strange way of the rats are acting he give a hit that the rats like any other animal adapt in these case they adapt a way to beat the fire one of there fears of the rats. - during Hugo saving mommy you can find how vitalis is experimenting and creating the white rats and Hugo finds out those are not scared of fire like the black ones does. -vitalis were using Hugo blood to get macula control that's why all the game passes trying to capture Hugo so he can obtain it.

[@JustDoIt12131]

​@@eduardobarajas8137 You have answered literally 0 of my questions: - The fact that it isn't new and has been in Rome too doesn't answer where does it come from. - Adaptation to avoid fire is something all animals have, which is very different to avoiding light. Those rats avoid all kinds of light, including sunlight, not only fire light. - You are only saying that Hugo finds out those rats are not scared of fire, which was already included in my question. I asked WHY they aren't, NOT IF they are. - Again, I asked WHY does Vitalis obtain the Macula control from Hugo's blood while his family doesn't have it, NOT IF he does. Respectfully, I would work on my logic if I were you. It's by far the most useful capability we have. You have absolutely missed the point of every question you have tried to answer. And it wasn't something complicated, but very simple. I mean no offense, I genuinely only want to help.

@@JustDoIt12131 First of all Vitalis gets the macula through a transfusion and its stated in the wiki that you can optain the macula through a transfusion thats why they went through the trouble to fucking capture Hugo The white rats are an experimentation used by Vitalis and presumably by his mixed blood so Hugo cant control them because there not natural They behave strangely because one: they feel Amicia and Lucas attempting to create an elixir and they adapt to counter light sources like fire not light itself And if you bothered to do a simple google search, you would probably get your answer And these are VERY simple answers and if you cant understand it then maybe try and get someone to use baby language with you, i'm not being disrespectfull i'm just stating the obvious
