168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Dark Pictures Anthology is always a fun series to se൩e return during the spooky season or any time really. The gaming world is always in need of a good scary game to play alone or with friends. House of Ashes might be the scariest entry yet ever since things began in 2019.
As fun as it is to get scared by whatever nightmares await you in this game, there is something more unsettling: plot holes. There are several things that don’t make sense in House of Ashes for one reason or another. In order to fully discuss the game in all of its branching paths, there will be sp🍰oilers.
8 ꩵ ꧟ Why Did The Vampires Attack Akkad?
168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Were the vampires hiding underneath the city of Akkad the whole time? It could be surmised that these vampires only come out at night or when eclipses happen.🐷 However, it’s just weird that they 𝓰suddenly appear during the battle between the two empires.
This could be a coincidence or maybe some of the invading soldiers are vampires. It’s shown later in the story that vampires can turn back and forth between demon and hum💞an forms as is journaled by Mr. Hodgson. There are theories, but no straight answers.
7 🎶 Fore🍸ign Language Inconsistency
Keeping with the subject of Akkad, why is the dialogue here voiced in English? The reason should s⛦imply be because this is an English dubbed game primarily. However, there is an inconsistency in the game which makes things seem senseless.
When players 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:take over Salim, he is voiced in his native language and you'll need to have subtitles enabled in order to understand him and his people. This detail can be appreciated for its authenticity. So, why then were the ancient Sumerians speaking English?
6 Nick Not Standing Up F🍌or Salim? ⭕
The most logical choice for Nick to make when he meets Salim is to become his partner in order to kill the vampire. After the battle is won, Nick hears his comrades coming. Players can choose whether or not they want Salim to stay still or for him to hide. The choice regarding Salim standing his ground seems to indicate to players th𒁏at Nick will explain the situation.
That’s actually not the case if this option is chosen. When Jason sees Salim he doesn’t give him a chance and Nick is silent throughout most of this conflict. It seems unnatural for him to not step in right away and explain the situation. They just 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:killed a vampire for crying out loud.
5 Rac✅hel And Eric Not Shooting Back At Dar
There is a scene early on in the ruins wherein Dar starts shooting and chasing after Nick and Rachel. Eventually, they hide in the perfect spot in order to throw a rock 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:to distract Dar.
Once the rock hits, Dar immediately turns his back⭕ to them and fires madly in the other direction. Nick and Rachel are trained soldiers with guns. In that moment why did they then not sneak up and kill Dar? Running seems like an odd choice at this moment.
4 𒆙 How Does Rachel Survive Her Fall? 😼
There is another scene right after the Dar encounter that seems illogical. No matter what 🍒you decide to do, Rachel will fall. There is a possibility that Dar can shoot Nick as he is hanging on, but whether Nick cuts the rope or not, Rachel will survive.
This just doesn’t seem possible. She falls into a giant chasm 🅺and her only cushion is a shallow puddle of blood. She doesn’t even seem injured or phased by the fall. It’s like nothing ever happened which might be more unrealistic than the space vampires.
3 That Preserving Chemꩲical
What exactly is that preserving chemical made out of? It seems like pure magic in order to keep the ancient king alive or at least half of his body. Was this chemical created 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:by the aliens or did this substance come from the parasites?
The answer to that is neve♏r answered in the game. It seems like a deus ex machina-like solution for players to find in case one of the characters, like Rachel, gets infected. Not a lot of the science is explained in the game but this supernatural substanꦦce is perhaps the hardest thing to understand.
2 ✃ Randolph Hodgson’s 𒆙Journal
One of the collectibles you will find in the game are torn-out pages of Randolph Hodgson’s journal. Eventually, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:toward the end of House of As💯hes, you will find his journal in the alien ship. The journal has all oꦏf its pages torn out, which then explains why characters keep finding them.
It was obvious before but finding the book itself was a little like closure. However, who did this? Why would anyone tear out these journal entries only to leave them strategically around the game? It’s very convenient for those playing House of Ashes but🌞 it doesn’t add up from a logical point of view in the story.
1 How Does Everyone Esca🃏pe?
No matter who makes it 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:to the end of the ruins doesn’t matteཧr. The story will end with the remaining survivors climbing up the giant hand from the beginning of the ruins. One of the characters will exclaim that they see a way out. They toss a rope upwards and then everything fades to white. This fade-out very obviously is hiding the fact that there is no way that rope could anchor onto anything in order to allow people to climb up.
Let’s remember that this entire area is full of sinkholes. Wouldn’t the explosions below cause more cave-ins up above? It would have made more sense if a helicopter came in at the end to throw down ropes. Choppers do indeed come eventually but after one more fight. This bit lasting up until the very final cred🐈it leaves a lot o♓f questions on the table.
