Chapter 195: Even if the guide has long been broken, please become the king of Elden!
Click in to take a look.
In the section of the label of the game genre, an unfamiliar word that has never been seen before comes into view.
AOWG(Action open world game)
"An action open-world game? what is this? "Czcu people are stupid.
I've been playing games for so many years, and it's the first time I've seen this genre......
I know the open-ended ending.
That is, the final ending of the movie or the final ending is displayed blankly, without adding details to interpret, leaving the audience or readers with a space for reverie.
It is mostly used to increase the stamina of the work.
If used correctly, it will have a long-lasting aftertaste.
But what the hell is your open world?
Don't make the game itself, let the players do it themselves?
No, no, no, that's...... It's impossible to think about it.
If that's not the case, how do you explain the word you saw for the first time?
Czcu pressed the doubts in his heart and looked at the price again.
The game is priced at 1/2 the price of Shadow Realm and is priced at $100.
This price is based on the previous pricing of major game manufacturers in Omi.
If this were a 3D game.
Then it can only be an entry-level 3D, and even an entry-level 3D game is relatively cheap at the price of selling at Omic.
After all, after removing the high share between the game platform and the publisher, the price of the 100-meter knife makes it impossible to make much money at all.
I really can't support the funds of the game company, and I can't make much money from big sales, let alone if it doesn't sell out.
As a result, Czcu has lowered its expectations for the quality of this game when it comes to buying and installing it.
After all, I heard that it is a Western fantasy style.
What can a team from the East say when it does Western fantasy?
It's hard to say.
Try it first!
When you click on the game, you will see an illustration of the game's cover.
The overall gloomy and gray color tone is dominant.
In what looks like a cemetery.
A knight in silver armor, armed with a sharp blade that reached into the ground, fell to his knees.
And around him, there was a dead silence.
There were quite a few corpses lying on the horizon.
Looking into the distance, the dense and opaque clouds are like a visual storm at this moment, overwhelming and rolling, bringing a strong sense of oppression.
Whether it's a towering lighthouse on the left or a snow-capped mountain on the right.
They were all shrouded in oppressive clouds, and there was no light to be seen.
In this opening illustration, the whole world seems to have lost order.
“Wow! I like the kind of composition with a strong dark fantasy style, which looks like the setting is very grand, and it gives the player a sense of epic before you even start playing. Czcu gave a simple compliment.
But just one cover doesn't mean anything.
What exactly can be made depends on the game itself.
Without hesitation, Czcu clicks to start the game.
Soon, the CG was presented.
The narration in a low and generous voice slowly speaks like reading a dark history book that is unbearable to look back on.
Slowly depicts a picture of the Junction for the player.
「…… Falling leaves bring a message:
On the other side of the fog, in our homeland of the Junction, the great Elden Ring has been shattered—"
As the voice fell, the static CG illustrations of the game were revealed.
The main body of the illustration is drawn in the style of oil painting.
In the illustration, a man with only a slender figure, naked and naked, stands in front of a forge table with a strangely shaped hammer.
Again and again, as if he was striking something hard.
Soon a crisp 'bang' was heard.
Then, the sky was gilded with a golden glow that enveloped the entire sky, including a magnificent castle below.
"I guess this refers to the destruction of the Elden Ring, but what is this Ring? Who is this person who broke the ring? Judging from the pattern given by CG, the energy contained in this magic ring seems to be endless, and when it is broken, it can make the heavens and the earth change color. "While watching CG, Czcu simply provides a companion for the audience with his own game experience.
At this point, the narrator's voice sounded again.
With a slight hint of excitement, the voice was tinged with a shallow trill.
"The Eternal Queen Marika is gone."
The illustration that follows the picture is a half-naked woman with slender arms, wearing only a very thin nightgown.
But her appearance at this time is very weird.
He was like Jesus crucified in the form of judgment, with his head bowed and unable to distinguish between life and death.
"On the night of the Black Knife Conspiracy, Godwin, the Golden Monarch, was the first to lose his life."
Immediately after that, the picture changes again.
A powerful king fell to his knees.
Behind him, surrounded by a number of assassins dressed in black gauze, plunged black knife dagger after dagger into his sturdy body, one of which ran straight from his back and pierced through his heart.
The two illustrations seem to illustrate the plight of two important rulers of the kingdom.
Soon, the narrator begins to read again, revealing the fate of the kingdom that will follow.
"The demigods, the sons of Malika, have obtained the fragments of Elden's Ring.
But because of that force, it went astray and fell into madness, triggering a war of fragments......
It was a war without the birth of a new king.
It's a war abandoned by the supreme will—"
At this time, the magnificent symphonic background sound is gradually pushed to the extreme.
The narrator becomes even more excited and high-spirited, with a constantly trembling voice, and a highly emotionally contagious voice.
"Oh~! Let's go, faders—
O dead who cannot sleep forever!
The blessings that we lost so long ago are calling out to everyone!
"King of the Wild Lands" Holly Lu,
Shining Gold Mask,
"Sleeping Girl" Fia,
The spurned dung-eater,
"Sir Hundred Wisdom" Gideon Offnier"
With the introduction of the narrator's passion, a group of faded people who look full of cards, and their personal oil paintings also flash by one after another.
Just the next moment.
The magnificent symphony is silent, and the narrator's excited voice gradually sinks, and the mood becomes calm.
In the dark picture that followed, a particle of light that emitted an extremely faint light slowly floated in.
In the end, it landed on a seemingly ordinary palm.
"And another, who has been blessed again—
An obscure fader."
At this point, the picture finally changed from a static oil painting to a dynamic 3D animation.
Awakened by the blessed light, the Nameless Faded One slowly rose in a void of chaos and walked to a heavy stone door in two steps.
With continued straining of his arms, he slowly pushed the heavy door open.
A ray of brilliant golden light came through the crack in the door, and the light was as dazzling as gold.
"Go through the sea of fog, reach the junction, and meet the Elden Ring—
and become the King of Elden!"
As the last paragraph of the narrator comes out, the name of the game slowly emerges along with several golden-red intertwined rings LOGO.
【Elden Ring】
This is only a three-minute CG.
And it's not dynamic, it's just a static rotation of illustrations in the style of multiple oil paintings.
But it made Czcu look straight in the eyes.
“This is very cool!!”
"This CG is so feeling!"
"Brothers, whether it's the cover or this opening CG, the game company Player One has unexpectedly interpreted this epic sense very well, and even has the flavor of our Western fantasy."
"Think about it, a crumbling kingdom of chaos and disorder, where countless demigods fought for the right to dominate the new era for the so-called Elden Ring, but in the end, no one was able to win."
"It's up to us, a nameless fader."
"This kind of story that looks like a nobody who has grown up and finally stepped on the throne, challenging heroes from all walks of life along the way, and the process of their growth and training itself is writing a majestic dynasty revival calendar!"
"Before I even started playing, I was already looking forward to it, right? come on! Please don't let me down! ”
Not only Czcu, but even a group of viewers have a high evaluation of this CG.
The screen is full of praise words such as 'good' and 'cool'.
I'm used to seeing all kinds of big scenes and delicate CG, but the actual experience is seriously inconsistent with the game itself.
CG can be achieved with advanced rendering techniques, but the game itself cannot be as detailed as CG everywhere.
Therefore, CG that is too flashy can sometimes have the opposite effect.
But the immersion that Elden Ring brings is outstanding.
It's refreshing to have the narration feel like flipping through a legendary story, telling the content in a storytelling way.
"And the people mentioned in the CG are likely to be the opponents that the player will meet in the future." Czcu smiled a little excitedly.
He couldn't say why.
But this kind of 'just telling you that he has a title' and 'he looks very powerful' doesn't reveal anything about it to you.
Instead, it creates a strong sense of mystery for the player.
can't help but look forward to what kind of fierce confrontation will happen when they meet them in the future.
After the CG, a preview of the character type pops up.
This link is very similar to many Western fantasy games.
Czcu didn't waste much time either.
After a little thought, I chose a more secure wandering knight.
There are fewer blue bars, but the health and energy bars are stable, especially the energy bar, which is the longest among the top ten classes.
Czcu, who has played a lot of action games, knows that the energy bar is often related to how many moves the protagonist can make in a short period of time and how far he can run.
Equipment.
The Wandering Knight starts with a sword, a halberd, and a wooden shield.
After the character was selected, with a flash of light, I finally entered the game screen.
Countless viewers also cheered up and looked towards the screen.
The nameless faders controlled by the Czcu spawn in a dimly lit chapel.
The door in front of him was closed, and the tables, chairs and benches around him were staggering, as if there had been a fierce battle here.
At the end of the line of sight, there was also a humanoid corpse that appeared to be dead.
Curled up in the corner, his body emitting a purple glow.
When the Czcu operation fader stepped forward to find out.
Only to find out that it was a person who looked like a dead witch.
He was dressed in a rudimentary robe, with a hood over his head to cover his face.
In front of her, there was also a string of whitened characters left on the ground.
Czcu thought it was a beginner's guide or something.
But after clicking on it, I found that it was a paragraph with unknown meaning.
It seems to have been left behind by the dead witch.
"Even if the guidance has long been broken, please become the king of Elden."
Later, Czcu collected a purple quality item from the dead witch.
[The Faded Elder Finger: Able to write messages and spread them to other worlds.] 】
Not knowing how to use it for the time being, Czcu put it away and looked around again.
There's nothing else to explore in this small, dimly lit chapel.
Immediately, he raised his legs and walked to the closed door of the auditorium, pushing it open vigorously.
With the creak of a heavy door.
“Wow!” The scene in front of him made Czcu can't help but exclaim, and his eyes shrink slightly.
In front of him, the end of sight.
There is a golden tree that connects to heaven and earth.
Even if you look across the mountains and seas, you can feel the thickness of the trunk.
The lush foliage also glowed with gold, growing in all directions, as if holding up the sky.
The extraordinarily dazzling light repels the entire gray-green sky around it, like the sun that dispels the night.
The appearance of such a huge object can bring people the most direct visual shock.
The place name of the Chapel of the Princes is also presented.
It's just that I don't wait for Czcu to sigh with the audience in the live broadcast room for a long time.
Not two steps yet.
"Tom!!"
A strange-looking species descends from the sky, sending up a cloud of dust and mist, blocking the player's path.
It was a creature that looked like a crab.
But after a closer look, the goosebumps on Czcu's whole body instantly rose!
To be exact, it was a man who looked like a crab!
Eight arthropod legs, growing outward around the bloated body, move like a crab moving sideways quickly from side to side.
But if you look closely, you can clearly see that those eight legs are human siblings!
He was pressed to this ugly species as if it were an amputation.
However, he wore a beautiful aristocratic crown on his head.
Unlike all the games Czcu has played before, Harlequin is a goblin, a goblin, a skeleton, a zombie, and so on.
This strange sense of sophistication combined with his ugly appearance gave birth to an ugly aesthetic called grotesque.
Soon, this 'crab' finally showed his health bar in front of Czcu.
[Descendants of the nobility of "Limbs"]
"This ...... Is it a newbie teaching boss? Czcu muttered, but his eyes were already serious.
One person, one boss, turned in a circle outside the small circular square in the center of the Hou Wang's Chapel.
After observing the way the boss moves, Czcu's brow furrowed deeper and deeper.
No......
This is not a newbie teaching boss.
This boss looks like a guy who only appears in the late game.
He moves very fast, and because of his eight legs, his body is also very agile.
The damage is just as high.
On the other hand, the faded one he controlled, the poor blood bar could be cut in half with two swords.
How can this be a beginner's tutorial for players......
Sure enough.
After being hacked to death by the crab boss with a few random knives.
Game Over's blood-red lettering is presented.
But it was followed by another cutscene that had never been seen before.
"OK, this should be a plot kill." Czcu breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a faint smile in the face of the audience who were also stupid.
"I'll just say, like this kind of boss, it's one of the ultimate bosses in the later stage, and it's just to scare players in the early stage."
"After all, there is no way that there is really a game that will put a big late-stage boss in the first level for players to fight."
Thanks to the '14th Alibaba' boss for his 5,000 book coins tip!!
Thank you very much, big guy! Kowtow to the big guy! Bang bang!!
The big guy broke the bank, but the book is in the late stage, and the potential is also here, and the results can't go up, so I still recommend that readers and bigwigs don't give a reward, 50 yuan is enough to read a new million words, there is really no need to reward.
