Chapter 0218 - Game Life in a Past Life

When the familiar melody of the movie interlude sounded, Wang Shaodong still chuckled in his heart. After many years, I can finally play this game again.

In his previous life, since he went to college in 2002, the game was like a friend at first sight, and he suddenly entered Wang Shaodong's life.

In 2002, he played "Legend of Blood", a game with a rough art style, an old-fashioned plot, and a monotonous gameplay, but at one time, the achievement of millions of people online at the same time was absolutely unattainable by all online games at that time. Back then, Wang Shaodong was also crazy about this game, in order to buy a point card, he ate three meals a day and made a meal, and ate a pack of instant noodles at one meal. However, for poor students who did not have any economic foundation at that time, it was impossible for Wang Shaodong to make any achievements in this game.

Wang Shaodong has not played the legend that was later free, only played the legend of the point card charge before 2003, in such a legend, level and equipment are everything. If you have equipment, you can be the boss and you can bully people. So, in the beginning, the equipment of this game is very valuable. A sturdy glove with 0-4 defense can be sold for dozens of yuan, which is equivalent to the salary of an ordinary person for two or three days. If you have a sturdy glove with 0-5 defense, you have to have more than five hundred. 0-6 sturdy gloves, don't ask if you don't have two thousand. And then like the dragon pattern sword, the staff of judgment, the bone jade scepter, etc., the price at that time was several thousand yuan. Like what kind of paralysis ring, dragon slaying knife, these have to be measured by tens of thousands of dollars.

For the rich, a few tens of dollars for a card is nothing compared to spending tens of thousands of dollars to buy equipment. But for Wang Shaodong, it is already very difficult to get enough money for a card.

"Legend of Blood", just like my little girlfriend who was in love when she was twelve or thirteen years old when she was in junior high school, she was reckless, she didn't understand anything, and she didn't do anything.

In 2003, Wang Shaodong saw that everyone around him was playing the game "Journey to the West OL2", and then plunged into the arms of this game.

This game is the favorite of all the boys in the class of 2002 in the College of Life Sciences, compared to the monotonous gameplay in "Legend of Blood", the Chinese style elements and new gameplay added to this game make everyone very fascinated. In the class of 2002 in the College of Life Sciences, there were at least five male students who were expelled from the course because they played the game all day. As for those who can't get a degree because they play this game all day, there are at least thirty or forty people.

After having a failed first love experience, Wang Shaodong made great strides on the road of the game, and at this time, several roommates in their dormitory discussed and saved money to buy a computer.

With a computer, everyone in the dormitory spends more time online, and when they spend more time online, they find that the only way to pass the time is to play games.

Another reason why Wang Shaodong insists on playing this game is that this game can actually be played without spending money. The more complete part of this game is the economic system inside, which can obtain game currency by consignment point cards, and players can buy point cards in the hands of other players through game currency. For an immortal who has just been upgraded to level 102 not long after opening the district, running 200 rings can earn a point card of fifteen yuan in an hour.

You can earn fifteen dollars in an hour, and you can easily earn one hundred and fifty dollars when you work ten hours a day. Of course, people may think that working 10 hours a day is not very hard, but in fact, it is not tiring to let a person do something that he likes so much, and work 12 hours a day.

Big talk is the second game Wang Shaodong played, intermittently from 2003 to 2017, he even played it occasionally.

Then in 2005, with the news obtained from various channels, Wang Shaodong knew that a very important game had completed the internal beta and was about to start the public beta.

is like a lover who fell in love at first sight, when he saw the opening animation of the game "World of Warcraft", Wang Shaodong was moved to tears.

Yes, many people cried when the open beta started at 4 a.m. on April 26, 2005.

When the orc hunter shook his nose and stuck his shotgun in the snow and creaked, when the orc slammed the ground angrily with his bones, and when the minotaur sprinkled the seeds of peace and hope from the cliff of thunder into the distance, many people couldn't help but burst into tears.

It turns out that games can also have such connotations!

"World of Warcraft" became an instant hit and became a topic of discussion on the streets. This game subverted people's previous understanding of MMORPG online games, and at the same time set a new benchmark for MMORPG online games.

Talent system, quest system, faction confrontation, dungeon concept, battlefield PVP, self-written UI, etc., have all become concepts and patterns that other games compete to imitate.

The opening animation has not yet been played, and Wang Shaodong has been completely convinced by this game.

This is a game!

Like a first-grade elementary school student taking the first class with great excitement, Wang Shaodong is nervous and curious to explore the world.

Back then, South Park once spoofed a video of World of Warcraft, in which a group of children were very involved in playing the game World of Warcraft, and even felt that defeating one of the NPCs in it was like saving the world, and Wang Shaodong's thoughts at that time were similar to the children in the video that South Park spoofed.

Wang Shaodong's discovery of this game is like discovering another self and devoting himself to another world. Even, for the sake of this game, a lot of absenteeism and skipping classes began.

He used to be the chief hunter of the guild, the chief commander of the MC, and the heads-up king of Orgrimmar's gates, the executioner who infiltrated Stormwind and slaughtered the common people......

However, when June 2006 came, when the parting bell rang, when he got the college diploma obtained in exchange for four years of wasted youth, Wang Shaodong never touched that game again.

After joining the work, he would occasionally play big talk, but he never touched Warcraft. He once played "Dragon Babu" for a few days, but was deceived when selling a mutant mantis, and then immediately deleted the game. He also played the web version of the Three Kingdoms overnight for a few days, but when he calmed down and thought about it, he felt that this game was not interesting, so he deleted the game.

I've grabbed food, played casual games such as Lianliankan, and Matching, but I no longer have the madness I had when I first played World of Warcraft.

It seems that the game World of Warcraft has burned all the crazy souls in Wang Shaodong's body, and what remains is just a calm wreckage. 10
