Chapter 79: Do You Have to Pay for Your Life?

"Grace Continent" is a traditional RPG adventure game with a bit of simulated development and meat pigeon elements.

Since it's an adventure, there are monsters and dungeons.

There are more than 100 kinds of monsters!

Although it sounds like a lot, many of these more than a hundred kinds of monsters are in the same category.

What does that mean?

Skeleton Miscellaneous, Skeleton Knight, Skeleton Archer, Skeleton Mage, Skeleton Shield......

There are five types of monsters, but these five monsters are actually variants of the "skeleton soldiers", and even the original painting is the same set of templates, but with different weapons or mounts.

Ordinary skeleton soldiers, wearing robes are skeleton mages, holding bows and arrows are skeleton archers, taking shields is skeleton shield guards, riding war horses are skeleton knights, and the changes are not very big.

With monsters, there are battles.

"The battle adopts a pseudo-turn system, make an action bar, and shoot in turn according to the agility attributes of different characters or monsters."

Chen Ba has a soft spot for turn-based battles, and "Divine Grace Continent" is not suitable for real-time combat, so it can only be made into turn-based combat.

The turn-based system focuses on decision-making and combat pacing, and is also more about teamwork.

This is also in line with the core gameplay of "Grace Continent", which is to cultivate teammates and not engage in personal heroism.

"Because of the characteristics of infinite resurrection, the brave will be more suitable for a meat profession like a paladin, standing in front of teammates to taunt monsters and absorb damage......"

Chen Ba turned the signature pen in his hand and continued: "Of course, the division of occupations in the game is not so strict, and the brave can also be the main output training. ”

It's all up to the player.

The easiest way is to be brave in front of you, protect other teammates, and let other teammates die out, which is also a more recommended team genre.

You can also train an NPC to be a meat tank, let him be in front, and the brave will play the output......

The existence of the job transfer mechanism leads to the positioning of each role, which is actually not so clear.

For example, elves, because of the super high growth potential of Zhimin Jing, training as a ranged mage or archer is the most resource-saving and worry-free route.

But no one stipulates that elves can't be meat tanks or wet nurses!

It's just that, because of the attribute potential, cultivating in this direction may consume a lot of resources, and cultivating to the limit is average.

"The brave are special!"

"No matter which direction the brave is cultivated, the ultimate potential is the top role."

Xiao Lu couldn't help laughing: "When you are a tank, that is the best tank, when you are a mage, that is the most terrifying mage, when you are a wet nurse, you are also the nurse with the biggest breasts." ”

"That's right."

Chen Ba nodded and said: "The reason why a brave man is a brave man is because the potential of all attributes is top-level, and it all depends on how the player uses it." ”

"But no matter how good the brave is, after all, there is only one person, which is why the brave needs to recruit teammates to crusade against the demon king together."

And if there is more than one brave man?

Then the NPC can really get out, after all, five brave people with full attribute potential MAX team up, how can there be anything with the demon king?

It doesn't even take five brave men.

According to the cultivation potential of the brave, one brave is the defense attribute of the death pile, and the output of the death pile is the output of the death pile, and on the easy difficulty, only two brave people can clear the level.

Of course, this is easy difficulty.

The game is divided into three difficulties: easy, hard and hell, and the higher the difficulty, the higher the monster attributes, the difficulty of recruiting NPCs, and the cost of cultivation will be greatly increased.

The top hell difficulty, if you don't start with a hundred hours of liver explosion in the game, it is estimated that there is no hope of clearing the level.

After all, in Hell difficulty, not to mention the tank profession, the nurse mage profession, the monster will die if you touch it, and the worst time is a big cripple.

"That's right!"

As if thinking of something, Yang Dong asked on the side: "How do we balance the price of this game?" ”

The price of the game is very important.

The price is too low, the depreciation of various god costumes and props is too serious, and the cultivation speed is greatly accelerated, which may be a little interesting in the early stage, but it will be very boring in the later stage.

This is also a common problem with many RPG adventure games.

I was trembling in the early stage, every penny had to be carefully calculated, every resource was hard-won, and it would feel like a waste to buy an extra bottle of potion.

But as soon as I entered the late game, I had too many gold coins on my body to spend it, and my resources were squandered casually, so there was no tension at all.

"This piece of equipment, ordinary and sophisticated equipment is not difficult, you can get it casually, you can buy it in the store, and you can also explode when fighting monsters."

"But when it comes to epic and above, equipment can only be produced by manufacturing. The amount of materials and gold consumed increases dramatically with each level of advancement. ”

Chen Ba explained: "When the brave goes to crusade against the Demon King, he only has one or two artifacts on his body at most......"

Artifacts can't be flooded!

Even in the late game, the Brave and his teammates have been cultivated to the extreme, and with the capital to defeat the Demon King, top-level equipment like artifacts will not be rotten.

This is also guaranteed playability.

Otherwise, in the later stage of the game, everyone will have nothing to play, and there will be no pursuit of this game, so who will open the game "Divine Grace Continent"?

The artifact is very strong, and one or two pieces can crusade against the Demon King.

After clearing the level, players can continue to soak in the game, collect materials and work towards the "full-body artifact".

"Gold coins also control the output, and the brave can't easily achieve financial freedom."

Chen Ba said with a smile: "The most reliable source of income for the brave, in addition to fighting monsters and brushing copies, should be the income handed in by teammates." ”

"Huh? Turn in your income? ”

Before Yang Dong could speak, Xiao Lu on the side exclaimed: "NPCs sell their lives to the brave, and if they can't get their salary, they still have to pay the brave?" ”

Normally.

The brave recruits his teammates and goes to crusade against the demon king together, isn't it the brave who pays his teammates? How can there be a reason for teammates to pay money to the brave?

"Ahem!"

Chen Ba cleared his throat, and then said, "But the brave have to spend a lot of money to cultivate these NPCs, otherwise where will they get their combat power?" ”

Don't pay too much.

If you don't pay, you will become a brave licking dog, and there will be no return for only paying.

Compared to the money and resources that the brave spent on their teammates, the income they handed in was simply not worth mentioning.

Here's an example.

NPC teammates hand over 50 gold to the Brave every once in a while, but how can this money be enough? The resources that the brave smashed on his teammates were at least hundreds of thousands of gold coins.

The purpose of paying the money is to show that the attitude is to make the player feel better, and not to feel that he has cultivated a group of white-eyed wolves.

As for the more money, the less money......

It's all about status! If the brave hooks up with the king and the duchess, then there will be a lot of gold coins handed in each time.

But the problem is that NPCs who pay a lot of money don't necessarily have a high growth potential, do the brave want money, or do they want teammates with great potential?

"Children make choices, adults do! Can you first pamper a rich woman in the early stage, and kick it off in the later stage to change the newcomer? ”

Chen Ba: "......"
