Fading Afternoon Direct Download
You play as Seiji Maruyama, a middle-aged yakuza recently released from prison. Old tropes are here but you can choose to not follow them. The question is — does anything really matter that much now? Have you ever experienced being alone in a world that has moved on without you? Being in a city where you fill your time with the ghosts of the past? Unsure of what your next step in your journey is so you continue on with the dueling nature of who you are against who you were? Developer Yeo does a phenomenal job capturing this exact feeling and theme in all of his work with Fading Afternoon being no exception. I’ve played all of his previous work and was eagerly awaiting his third installment in what I deem – reflection core. His theming in all of his games capture a sense of solitude and quietness I haven’t discovered in any other games I’ve played to date. It is incredibly relatable, and I’m always surprised at how someone can evoke such an abstract and personal feeling. The moments where you look out at the bay and sit alone with yourself, reflecting on your life and the steps you took to land you in the place where you are now.
Fading Afternoon is exactly this. You are an aging Yakuza and must return from a place of isolation and rebuild your former families glory while also navigating an uncertain future. This game has you live vicariously through your characters life and provides you with moments to ponder and reflect. Everything from Yeo’s previous games work in tandem, so if you’re unfamiliar with Yeo’s style of game design, allow me to provide you a quick rundown: The dichotomy between the protagonists every day mundanity and his contract killing is stark. The gameplay evokes the boring and unfulfilling nature of the time spent between the action filled shootouts and gunplay. In this game, Yeo introduced some of the coolest shooting mechanics that evoke homage’s from Wong Kar Wai’s Fallen Angels and John Woo’s The Killer.
Fading Afternoon Direct Play:
The bulk majority of the game and narrative is spent wandering 1970’s Paris, smoking cigarettes, drinking alcohol, and watching movies by your lonesome. The gameplay loop has you travelling to different locations, engaging in gang fights, going home to heal, and repeating this loop until the gang boss is available for assassination in that region. You receive Polaroid’s of potential hangout spots of the opposing gang leader, and you must hunt them down by visiting the various haunts located throughout the city. I can’t forget to mention the music in this piece of art. Each location has a certain lofi jazz song attached, but the clubs bring a Japanese city pop spin to it, vocals and all. The best soundtrack with The Friends of Ringo Ishikawa at a very close second.
