Arknights: Prelude To Dawn: Episode 2 "Flame" Review

This episode was an improvement, not in a huge monumental way, but for how it started to dip into more compelling parts of its dark and politically divided world. It also gave some much-appreciated explanations about magic . Magic isn't just cast by those with Oripathy, but also by people who use a material called Origin


Last week, Doctor woke up with no memory of who he was, being escorted to safety in a city overrun by terrorist rioters, before remembering enough tactical wherewithal to coordinate a defense. When we left the members of Rhodes Island, they were attempting to leave Chernobog to avoid the impending catastro


The sense of space can be hypnotic , and the characters traverse this huge underground facility with spiraling staircases and huge, liminal spaces. Outside, the overcast sky lets the tension loom like the storm in the distance, which the characters refer to as a "catastrophe." It's unclear what that means or why such a catastrophe happ


So all seems well, but it wouldn't be surprising if there was some tension arising later, especially given the treatment of infected in the city. For the time being though, that's the least of the characters' concerns, as the episode ends with a new antagonist watching on from h

Ace's death should serve as some catalyst for character growth; a tragedy that pushes the characters forward, but it feels like it just happens, which is unfortunate. This episode also leads one to worry about how fleshed-out the characters will be in this series, given a clearly large cast, but only limited time to show t

Prelude to Dawn continues to find clever ways to turn what would traditionally be a tower defense battle segment into a narratively legible sequence that pushes the story along. Doctor's drones being temporarily taken out makes it clear that the tower defense conceit of the source material isn't so rigid within this series that it can't be subver


However, even with somewhat underwhelming choreography, the art design remains fairly consistent. Characters' expressions posing are full of emotion and prime what could otherwise be very boring, and this makes up for many of the downsides. Plus, the grounded military tactics, like the use of grenades, really spice up the battles, and It will be fun to see these elements at play with ma


In this world, there are those infected with Oripathy, an infection that causes people to slowly crystalize until their body fractures and spreads the disease. The cost seems to outweigh the primary benefit, which is the ability to cast magic . The world of Terra is prejudiced against those who possess Oripathy, even though it isn't spread through to


The protagonist, Doctor, wakes up after having been given medical attention, just as a group called Reunion is storming the hideout. As Doctor is being escorted away, they reveal that they have no memory of what happened before the attack, causing dismay among his allies. The tension can be felt, even with the audience given as little context as the amnesiac hims

As the characters travel through a mostly abandoned and war-torn city, there's a lot of poignant imagery meant to evoke emotion as the story expands on the sociopolitical landscape . They take refuge in a clinic meant to help people with Oripathy in secret, so they aren't sent to quarantine. It's abandoned, as Reunion destroyed their clinic in retaliation for them not help


Mobile games like Arknights are some of the biggest teases out there, in that from the outside looking in they present themselves as much larger than it is.
