Fade to Silence is the first game in my life, but Fade to Silence has surprisingly little information。 😓

At first I was confused because there were many things I didn’t understand, but now that I’ve learned little by little, it’s fun and I just stay up late. 😅

Basic knowledge for beginners by beginners

Even though I haven’t cleared it for some reason, I decided to create the basic knowledge myself. (* ^^) v

Game overview

Set in a frigid region, this work collects and crafts materials and ingredients, gathers friends, builds facilities, purifies contaminated areas, expands the exploration area, and the hero survives to regain the memory of the past. It is a survival game.

There are two game modes: survival (a mode with a limited number of deaths, a tingling mode in which you lose everything and restart when the specified number of deaths is reached) and exploration (a mode that emphasizes the story and enjoys leisurely survival).

I’m playing survival mode, so I’ll show you some basic knowledge from a survival perspective!

The basic action is from the touchpad!

Press the touchpad to display the menu screen. There are various menus, but the items that are developed will change depending on where the current hero is.

search

Anyway, it will not start unless you search and get the material, so open the map and decide where to search.

As you can expect, the early stages start with exploring nearby and crafting food and warm food.

《Points of search》

Anyway, food and warmth are important. Even when exploring, just bring a torch and the sensible temperature will rise, so it is recommended to craft early.

However, monsters seem to react to fire, so there are disadvantages to using torches. 💦

By pressing and holding R2, you can search the surrounding area (quite wide area). You can see what is where, such as materials, chests, bags, deer, logging trees, and pollution points to purify.

Please note that you cannot see the monsters!

《 One point advice during exploration 》

In this game, the surroundings are moving even while the menu screen is being expanded. In many cases, you will be attacked and killed while crafting or checking materials.

In particular, objects floating in the sky will drop cars and aim for one-shot death, so be careful. 😢

When you leave the screen for business, it is safe to press the option button to display the pause screen. The world is stationary during the pose.

Let’s open the menu and get used to the contents quickly! Even if you open the menu in the camp (shelter), you do not have to worry about being attacked. However, hunger progresses over time. (~ _ ~;)

The survival guide is also described as being simple but useful, and on the item creation screen that you will use most, you can check the explanation of what you can make and the necessary materials.

Item creation

The scissors mark on the menu is the item creation.

Place the cursor on the item you want to create with the L stick, and the materials and number required for creation will be displayed on the left side. We will find this necessary material by searching.

《Items you want to create early》

Torch

It has the effect of raising the temperature during exploration movement to about 3 ° C. Of course, it can be used as a light at night.

Bonfire

It’s the only way to warm your cold body while exploring. Since the places where firewood can be used are limited, a bonfire that can be used anywhere is one of the important items.

bow

It is necessary for hunting food essentials, deer, etc. Even if you can approach the deer unnoticed, the damage of the melee weapon to the deer is invalid. Craft a bow if you want to eat meat. If you can create it, equip it with an arrow!

axe

Needed to cut down trees. Picking up firewood alone is not enough to cover your daily consumption. You also need items that can be obtained by logging trees to build.

How to read the screen display

Various information is displayed on the screen. Sorry for the image being displayed in Japanese.

Upper center

Direction gauge and eye-like marks are warning signs.

upper left

White gauge = life

Blue gauge = stamina

Upper right

1 = Raid gauge

When this gauge is full and turns red, the camp (shelter) will be attacked by monsters. Gauges increase naturally over time, so you’ll be forced into regular base defense battles.

2 = hunger gauge

Eat a meal and recover.

3 = Freezing gauge

An arrow mark is displayed next to the gauge, and the gauge increases when it is downward and decreases when it is upward.

When the gauge is full, the life gauge suddenly decreases from the right end and dies when it reaches the left end. You can recover the gauge with a bonfire, but frostbite-like damage to your life gauge will not heal unless you sleep or use medicine.

4 = temperature gauge

You can raise it by holding a torch or entering a bonfire or a hut, but you can’t expect much effect other than warming with a bonfire or firewood in a designated place (a place where you can get warm with a drum).

《Shortcut and registration method》

The shortcut is a convenient function that allows you to use the corresponding item with one push without expanding the menu by pressing the cross key.

The registration method can be set by opening the belongings in the menu, moving the cursor to the item you want to register, and pressing and holding the direction you want to register the cross key.

However, please note that if you select a weapon on the inventory screen above the cross key and select equip it, it will be automatically registered. It is recommended to set frequently used items to the left and right of the cross key.

Also, if you set the torch under the cross key, it is convenient because you can switch it by pressing the bottom of the cross key with the weapon out.

In the case of PS4, it may occur if you do not switch to a torch because it is a bug. In that case, you may be able to avoid it by re-equiping the weapon on the inventory screen.

construction

At the shelter, construction can be selected from the menu. Buildings and fences can be constructed, but it requires a lot of wood-based materials, so consult with the number of stockpiles to construct.

I personally prioritized the construction of the hut and the fence, considering the time when monsters and followers (friends) attacked regularly were created.

Follower management

You can become friends by inviting the humans you encounter during the exploration to the shelter. You can see the status in the follower management of the menu, and you can also give instructions to your friends.

It is convenient because it will do various work such as construction and collection on your behalf, but as the number of people in the evacuation center increases, the consumption of food and firewood will also increase.

Be as greedy as I am and be careful not to run out of food and firewood. 😅 My camp is constantly suffering from hunger and cold. It’s easy to think that resources are limited, and if you don’t explore and discover hunting grounds and logging areas yourself, your friends will not be able to act. (~ _ ~;)

At the beginning, it may be good to have a carefully selected composition of about two people.

Move the cursor to the friend you want to give an instruction to and select it, and the screen will change to the instruction screen.

As the number of friends increases, troubles such as conflicts will occur. You will be forced to stand in between to understand the situation and deal with it.

The judgment here is related to the morale of the fellows. Of course, morale also depends on hunger and cold due to lack of food and firewood.

Morale is related to work efficiency, and it seems that it is also related to maintaining the skills of followers after the main character dies or reincarnates. I want to keep everyone morale as high as possible, but it’s difficult to maximize everyone’s morale.

It may be ants to focus on the morale of their favorite person.

purification

If you do not expand your exploration area while purifying contaminated areas and forts, you will die of hunger and cold with your friends. In particular, the fort is a treasure trove of materials, so be aware of some danger and purify it!

Purification involves irreparable damage to the life gauge. Get some sleep or craft and treat healing medications!

《Teleport》

If the fort is successfully cleaned, teleport will be available. Teleport is a useful feature, only between camps and forts.

Combat with monsters

Combat is inevitable in this game. It’s not as difficult as a game to die, so let’s do our best to get the hang of it! In particular, parry (defending and repelling attacks to match the attack of monsters) is important, and it is a very important technique for opponents who move underground and attack.

Helpine moves underground and attacks immediately after it appears, so if you adjust Parry to this, you can create an attack chance!

How is it? For those who are playing Fade to Silence, I hope it will be helpful as much as possible.

Let’s have a fun game life for both young and old. 😊
