Chapter 151: Kung Fu is Kung Fu, Martial Arts is Martial Arts
Mirikan, New Gold Mountain, Zhen Fan Guoshu Museum.
A black young man in his twenties changed out of his kung fu clothes, washed himself in the bathroom, changed into casual clothes, and said goodbye to his brothers and sisters, and walked out of the Zhenfan Guoshu Hall.
The black young man's name is Bruce, and his family lives on the edge of New Jinshan Chinatown, so he has been interested in Chinese culture since he was a child and has made many Chinese friends.
When Bruce was a child, he often went to the video store in Chinatown with his Chinese friends to watch movies, and the most watched was the old-fashioned Xiangjiang kung fu movie, he admired the Chinese kung fu superstar of the same name as him, and was deeply fascinated by the Chinese element of "kung fu" he showed.
So, when he was a teenager, he saved up money to enter the Zhen Fan Guoshu Museum, not far from Chinatown, and began to learn modern Chinese kung fu improved by the kung fu superstar.
After seven or eight years of hard work, he is now a third-level teaching assistant at the Zhenfan Guoshu Museum, helping the instructor teach kung fu enthusiasts who come to learn.
After going to Chinatown to eat a meal of Sando fried rice and fried dumplings with scallion oil, he dragged his tired body back to his residence.
However, it was still early to go to bed, and Bruce sat down in front of the computer.
In the past, he would choose to watch one or two Chinese kung fu movies, but in recent years, the level of Chinese kung fu films has really declined greatly, the rhythm is chaotic, the performance is stiff, and even the plot is mainly based on love, which is soft and unexciting.
He doesn't know how many times he has watched those classic old movies, but he will only take them out and review them once in a while.
So, he has recently become obsessed with computer games, especially those with kung fu elements.
At the beginning, he also played some games made by Chinese people with kung fu labels, but these games were often of poor quality, often just wearing the skin of kung fu, and the actual content was 108,000 miles different from kung fu, which basically had nothing to do with it.
He had no choice but to settle for the next best thing and started playing some fighting games from Fuso, but after playing fighting games for a while, he always felt that it was not enough fun.
The fighting game is indeed fist-to-flesh, with a strong sense of blowing, extremely confrontational, and very close to the elements of kung fu.
But in Bruce's mind, the term "kung fu" is not just fighting, it is a culture, a spirit.
He wants to be like the heroes in kung fu movies, using kung fu to adventure in that distant and mysterious oriental country: doing chivalrous deeds, destroying the conspiracy of the wicked, getting the praise of the beauties, getting the praise of the villagers, and his reputation spreading all over the world, becoming a kung fu hero.
And obviously, the fighting games of the Fuso people can't do that. And kung fu-themed games such as "Jade Empire" and "Book Goose Legend" made by the Chinese people always make him feel so bad.
The computer boots up, and Bruce turns on Stiem.
Well, search for any new kung fu games first, and if not, play Book Goose Legend again!
As he thought about it, he typed "kongfu" into Stiem's search bar and pressed enter.
After a few seconds, the results of a long row came out in reality, most of them were garbage games with extremely low ratings, only four or five "mostly praised", and only "Book Goose: Legend" received "rave reviews......
Wrong! There are two of them! There is also one that is also "rave reviews"!
The game tab is clear: 98% of the 2,563 user reviews are positive.
Obviously, this is the latest kung fu game, and Bruce can assure that he didn't make Stim discover the game at least two weeks ago.
In just two weeks, 2,563 user reviews were obtained, which is sure to be a big hit. And 98% of people gave it a good review, so the quality of this game must not be bad!
Bruce looked at its name: "The World of Kung Fu"? Sounds good......
Looking at the price again, 24.99 meters of gold, there are two DLCs of 14.99 meters of gold.
Although Bruce's salary is not very good, he is a happy bachelor and does not have many places to spend money, so there is still money to buy a game.
He didn't even bother to find out the specifics of the game, so he immediately clicked on the purchase and started downloading.
Oh, 12 GB, it looks like it's going to take a while.
While the game was downloading, Bruce clicked on the game introduction page and began to view the game description.
"World of Kung Fu is a real-time combat role-playing game (ARPG). You'll be free to venture out in a far-flung eastern land, learning all kinds of mysterious and powerful kung fu. ”
"You have a lot of choices during the adventure, whether you want to be a chivalrous hero, or you can choose to be a villain full of evil, and every choice you make will have an irreversible impact on the world of kung fu."
"Alright, please enjoy your adventure in this ancient and mysterious world."
……
It's an ARPG made by Chinese people...... Although it was a bit different from the 3D role-playing game that Bruce expected, he reluctantly accepted it given his understanding of the technical level of the Chinese people.
Above the introduction is a long row of ten sample images.
These ten sample pictures are all actual machine pictures, and they are all fights on them.
Seeing these pictures, Bruce was completely excited.
Right! That's kung fu! This is the real Chinese kung fu!
They learned to "qi"! The most mysterious, the oldest, and the most powerful "qi"! Only with "qi" is the real Chinese kung fu! to be able to play this effect!
This is the real kung fu in kung fu movies!
However, how is the image quality of the first five and the last five different?
Oh, and those two DLCs are the HD Picture Quality Expansion Pack and the Voice Expansion Pack! Hurry up and buy it too!
After buying the two DLCs and adding them to the download bar, Bruce started watching the game review below.
"This game is just so cool! The whole world is alive! ”
"I really like this kind of oriental-themed game, especially the kung fu in it, it's so interesting."
"It's not an old-school ARPG with a dark brush, it's a bunch of clever Chinese people who have turned the whole game into a real adventure with their genius ideas."
"Oh, I've been playing this game for over thirty hours now and it's finally in the newspaper! Ranked in the top 200 in the junior category. It's hard to imagine that in ancient China, there was a nationwide newspaper, although there was only one a month, but I have to admire their logistics system......"
"Well, I'll admit I got stuck in it, this World of Kung Fu is unlike any PRG I've played before, the whole world is alive, which makes the whole adventure so interesting...... But I have to say, there are so many bad guys in it! ”
"Obviously, the world depicted in Kung Fu is very cruel and dangerous, and even if you have learned great kung fu, you have to be careful to ensure that you survive."
"Save more when you play! Save more when you play! Save more when you play! Say the important thing three times. ”
"I love the dialogue selection system in death, I just like such arrogant speech! Well, while the results are often not good, maybe the game is teaching us to be polite? ”
