Social philosopher, utopian, novelist, and "father" of science fiction and science fantasy, Herbert George Wells was born on September 21, 1866, in Bromley, Kent. His father was a poor businessman, and young Bertie's mother had to work as a lady's maid. Living "below stairs" with his mother at an estate called Uppark, Bertie would sneak into the grand library to read Plato, Swift, and Voltaire, authors who deeply influenced his later works. He shoed literary and artistic talent in his early stories and paintings, but the family had limited means, and when he was fourteen years old, Bertie was sent as an apprentice to a dealer in cloth and dry goods, work he disliked.
He held jobs in other trades before winning a scholarship to study biology at the Normal School of Science in London. The eminent biologist T. H. Huxley, a friend and proponent of Darwin, was his teacher; about him Wells later said, "I believed then he was the greatest man I was ever likely to meet." Under Huxley's influence, Wells learned the science that would inspire many of his creative works and cultivated the skepticism about the likelihood of human progress that would infuse his writing.
Teaching, textbook writing, and journalism occupied Wells until 1895, when he made his literary debut with the now-legendary novel The Time Machine, which was followed before the end of the century by The Island of Dr. Moreau, The Invisible Man, and The War of the Worlds, books that established him as a major writer. Fiercely critical of Victorian mores, he published voluminously, in fiction and nonfiction, on the subject of politics and social philosophy. Biological evolution does not ensure moral progress, as Wells would repeat throughout his life, during which he witnessed two world wars and the debasement of science for military and political ends.
In addition to social commentary presented in the guise of science fiction, Wells authored comic novels like Love and Mrs. Lewisham, Kipps, and The History of Mister Polly that are Dickensian in their scope and feeling, and a feminist novel, Ann Veronica. He wrote specific social commentary in The New Machiavelli, an attack on the socialist Fabian Society, which he had joined and then rejected, and literary parody (of Henry James) in Boon. He wrote textbooks of biology, and his massive The Outline of History was a major international bestseller.
By the time Wells reached middle age, he was admired around the world, and he used his fame to promote his utopian vision, warning that the future promised "Knowledge or extinction." He met with such preeminent political figures as Lenin, Roosevelt, and Stalin, and continued to publish, travel, and educate during his final years. Herbert George Wells died in London on August 13, 1946.

评分屯的,现在还看不了.过一段再说
评分在仙剑的历史里,有过外传的先例,早先的《问情篇》推出,反响并不如正传的《仙剑奇侠传三》那么好,记得自己还一度为这部作品有些鸣不平。
评分也许是有了五代的教训,这次五前的宣传已经很保守(可能和本人没那么关注有关),官方CG和官方人物介绍都放得很有限,毕竟五代剧情大家都知道了,五前剧情就更好被玩家猜测而失去新鲜感。
评分五前的游戏长度大概较五代多出了一倍,(五前我通关用了50小时,五只用了30小时,后期同样都动了修改器),长并不代表就好,但五前的剧情并没有“扯麻纱”的感觉。十个可控角色是仙剑一次大胆的尝试,主角们个个都是个性鲜明自不必说,也因为有了他们,五代里提及到的名字不再只是个“名字”,而是有感情有担当的前辈们。
评分下面重点说一下人物好了:
评分巧合的是外传和前传都出现了自己的主题曲,而且同样都是在我印象里第一个在官方为仙剑唱歌的女孩来演唱的。遗憾的是当时《仙剑问情》并没有真正出现在外传里,而是出现在了后来的四代中由剧情NPC的口中吟唱出来,也算是一种弥补了吧。
评分外传也好,前传也罢,给我感觉都是在尽量地起到一个衔接主线故事的作用,《仙剑奇侠传五前传》(以下简称五前)便是为了承接一代二代和五代剧情而诞生的,可以说,五前的出现让五代不再给我感觉像一个无中生有硬编出来的一段剧情。
