Chapter 396: Another Round (Update 1)
The name of the new game was decided shortly after the monkey returned.
"Card Heroes".
Although Fang Cheng felt that it would be better to call it "Capras", which is the transliteration of "Savior" in this world, this name was directly rejected.
A simple and straightforward name is better than anything else.
In the game, the player plays the role of an apostle of a god from another world who is summoned and possesses unique powers, shouldering the mission of saving the world.
In this process, players will meet various people, trigger various random events, continuously obtain various rare objects and artifacts in this dangerous world, and then head towards the Demon King's City.
This is a lonely journey. Humanity has given up hope. Ordinary humans are unable to move due to the miasma released by the demon king, so only players who can resist the miasma can go there.
However, during the journey, players will also randomly meet some characters. They have gained the ability to move within the scope of the Demon King because of their magical objects. However, these guys also have their own agendas. Whether they are enemies or friends depends on fate.
This game is Fangcheng Studio’s first card game. After the promotional video came out, controversy continued.
[Are Fangcheng Studio a little confused? It’s obvious that we can just follow the previous model, so why do we have to innovate? Wouldn't it be a pity to use such strong technical power to make cards? ]
[Are you discriminating against cards? As the oldest game method of mankind, there are many ways to play cards than you think. ]
[I think it's good. As people get older, they suffer from gaming disease, not to mention electronic ED, and the coordination of their brain and hands can't keep up. It would be good to have some games that the elderly can play. ]
[No more nonsense, let’s see the real story of the game! 】
Although there is a lot of controversy, every player is staring at the pre-sale period and guessing what big moves Fangcheng Studio can release this time.
While waiting for the official version of the game, various copycat games appeared again, and the chaotic scene made people feel that the game industry was no longer a peaceful place.
Various gossips also began to circulate, such as the game master planning to become addicted to playing cards, unable to extricate himself, and then was fired.
For example, the gameplay planner was addicted to playing cards, secretly worked overtime every day, and was fired.
These news are true or false, and they are gathered into a huge gaming circle Rashomon, which makes the melon-eating people extremely happy to watch.
But what is reassuring is that the game was finally launched on time.
The sudden influx of traffic caused a huge impact on the game inn. However, Three Squirrels is indeed an existence that can be broken into by Alipay. The large amount of traffic did not cause the website to freeze for even a second, which made knowledgeable people lament that this technology is not useful. It's a waste to build a ticket booking website.
As one of the first media outlets to download and purchase the game, Chen Rang did not get into the game cabin. Instead, he sorted out the manuscripts he had written in advance while waiting for the game to be installed.
As a well-known Fangcheng blower, Chen Rang's manuscripts can be published as soon as Fangcheng Studio's games appear. The praises in them are different every time, allowing readers to learn new licking words every time. .
After the game was installed, he immediately skipped the opening animation and started the game.
He has already seen the promotional video of "Card Heroes" and he also understands the plot of the game. No matter how stunning the opening animation is, he will not care too much, but will go straight to the most critical part of the game: the gameplay.
"There are only three initial professions: beggar, farmer, and slave. It is different from what was advertised. It should have been modified later. This is also good, so that players can only experience three roles at the beginning, and continue to unlock new ones as the game progresses. Well, as expected of Fangcheng Studio, it's so considerate."
Next to Chen Rang, the new intern heard Chen Rang's comments and frowned and asked: "Brother Chen, isn't this very common? Is it set?"
"What do you know? Just listen to me obediently."
"Oh."
The intern didn't dare to talk back. He could only watch obediently from the side and murmured in his heart: The first party in the media industry Blow, it really lives up to its name.
If left unchecked, I'm afraid even a novice monster on the other side could keep him busy for half an hour.
But even if Chen Rang didn't brag, the intern could tell that Fangcheng Studio's game graphics were really not on the same level as other games.
Fangcheng Studio is now a big banner in the industry. Even without releasing a promotional video, just announcing a new project can set off a trend and change the direction of the game industry.
After it was announced that the new game was a card game, a card trend immediately emerged in the game. A large number of manufacturers immediately sorted out their card games and released them, and received a wave of traffic on this trend.
As an intern, his task is to contact and accept business orders, and then write reports and promote these games.
However, most of the games are just polished, and it’s even harder to find any playability in them.
Unlike Fangcheng Studio's games, just the look of the graphics makes people want to continue playing.
Chen Rang's character was born in a narrow wooden house. The surrounding environment was dark, but when the flames on the torch swayed with the wind, the details of the environment jumped out, making the interns watching on the side feel very immersed.
Unknowingly, other reporters in the office came over, looked at the picture and said: "Okay, this picture is realistic and has some delicacy. It is indeed a game from Fangcheng Studio. The picture is always amazing."
" There are a lot of details, and all items can be interacted with. Moreover, this time a rare object system is adopted. Open your backpack and see what the rare objects are so that I can study it." "
No, the rare object system requires death once. It can be turned on. So Chen Rang, please go die quickly."
Chen Rang glanced at his colleague with dissatisfaction and decided to use the other person's name as a clown next time he wrote a game report.
It would be embarrassing if one accidentally became a hit.
After laughing three times, Chen Rang opened his backpack and began to observe the cards he had.
The initial limit of the player's cards is only twenty. When the player equips a weapon and has no other rare items, all twenty cards will be filled with weapon cards.
And when there is a strange object, the strange object will appear here as a card, replacing a weapon card, and will be randomly drawn in subsequent battles.
Some artifacts can increase the upper limit of the deck, and some can reduce it. Some magical items can give players the ability to check cards, while some can reduce it, so how to match it is a very interesting routine.
Moreover, the effects of strange objects in the game are diverse and numerous, which makes the matching effects in it extremely numerous, allowing players to discover more routines at any time.
The beggar's initial weapon is only a short knife, and there are no rare items. The first rare item can only be unlocked after dying once, allowing the player's character to live here longer.
In addition to his own cards, there is also some food and drinking water in the backpack. These items can allow the character to restore some physical strength and replenish some water.
After reading the relevant instructions, Chen Rang found that when moving forward here, physical strength and water will be consumed at an extremely fast rate, so how to obtain sufficient food sources is also one of the issues that need to be concerned about.
After reading the relevant description, Chen Rang had to say that this game is really hardcore.
As a media reporter, Chen Rang needed to have a sufficient understanding of the situation here, so it took him half an hour just to understand the basic settings here.
When he figured out the details of the various settings, he discovered that there was actually another person here. The other party was dozing off against the pillar, his saliva dripping down like a faucet, and he looked like he was sleeping soundly.
After hesitating for a moment, Chen Rang walked over and started interacting with the other party.
If it is a game cabin, players can interact with NPCs through some actions.
But on the PC side, players can only choose an appropriate option to interact among the various options that appear.
Looking at the options that appeared, Chen Rang thought for a moment, and then asked: "What do you think of stealing all this NPC's things?" "
Not very good. I feel that the importance of this NPC is quite high. If the favorability level is increased, Is it difficult to deal with it if it's too low?"
"And I looked at the relevant settings. If the files are not deleted, the player's resurrection location after death will still be here, so I feel that it is better to have a good relationship with the other party than to steal all of them. ."
After considering the opinions of all parties, Chen Rang made his decision.
He firmly shook the other party awake, and then said to the priestess who had just woken up and had not yet understood the situation: "Come on, I want to duel with you!" "
Hey, another one?"
The priestess yawned and then said : "Okay, why do you apostles always like to do this kind of thing? Let me explain first, I will attack first."
After saying that, the priestess hit Chen Rang's character with a mace and knocked it directly to the ground. .
Skillfully cleaning the other party's belongings, she thanked nature for the gift, and then threw Chen Rang's body out. Not long after, she heard the bone-searing sound of chewing outside.
Sitting on a chair on the side, she ate the food and water she scavenged from Chen Rang. She felt that the white bread tasted a little lighter this time.
What the priestess doesn't know is that as an outpost in the fight against the Demon King, she has been chosen as the players' base.
She only knew that the magic circle behind her would often light up, and some apostles from other worlds would be resurrected from here, and some new apostles would be born from here.
Some of them were polite, some were rude, but she could knock most of them down with a stick and then take away the food and water from them.
Some of them can defeat her, but it seems that there is some invisible force that protects her, allowing her to not be harmed by the other party. After that, she can give the other party some white bread and water, and then send the other party away.
Some people will give her some rare objects and food as gifts, and she will also give her some gifts as gifts. Unfortunately, she is not a magical object expert and does not know the uses of these rare objects, so whether they are good or bad depends on their luck. .
But the interesting thing is that the new apostle will not appear until the last apostle dies.
In the opinion of the priestess, this should be some kind of special arrangement by the god of another world, and there must be the other party's intention in it.
And she could only silently thank the other party for their efforts, and at the same time pray for those brave men, hoping that they could go further in this miserable world.
The priestess had just finished eating her white bread when she felt a bright light appear behind her.
This is a sign that the ritual circle has been activated, which means that the previous apostle has died and the new apostle has arrived.
Turning her head, she saw Chen Rang appear here again and greeted her in a friendly manner.
Interestingly, the greeting movements of these apostles are somewhat similar, and they seem to be printed from the same mold.
Of course, there are some that look different, but they are a minority after all, and most of them are quite similar.
After saying hello, the other party said: "This is the first time we meet, I am Chen Rang."
"Your body is still being chewed outside." The priestess muttered.
"Sure enough, the memory has been left behind. This game is really interesting. Sorry, I attacked you before." "
It doesn't matter. If you want, you can die here a few more times, but there is no achievement."
Chen Listening to the lines spoken by the other party, Jean couldn't help but say: "The word achievement is a bit super."
"You brave men from other worlds have said it hundreds of times. Although I don't know what this word refers to specifically, but it's probably It can also be thought that it means that after being killed by me hundreds of times, you can get some benefits. Sorry, no, there is really no such thing."
"What a pity."
With a sigh, Chen Rang packed up his belongings and left here.
Behind him, the priestess said perfunctorily: "I hope you can die far away. Goodbye."
Watching the door being closed, Chen Rang was sure that there must be fans of "Anomaly" in the game's planning.
Looking at the gloomy path in front of him, Chen Rang felt the atmosphere of the game rising.
Although it took some effort to officially start the game, this process is necessary in order to better understand the characteristics of this game.
The strange item he got randomly this time was the flame cloak. This strange item can convert all attacks this time into shields, and convert all the shields lost due to the opponent's attacks into fire damage and reflect them back.
This card can become the core of the defense flow. As long as you build according to this card, you should get good results.
Currently, "Card Heroes" has become very popular.
However, because the release date of the game is not long ago, no one can get out of the black forest in front of them yet, let alone the subsequent content.
But precisely because it is unknown, it has the value of exploration.
Looking at the forest in front of him, Chen Rang decided to explore the place and write a qualified report as soon as possible.
Unfortunately, he broke his promise.
Because, he pigeon.
Once he fell into it, he found that his time was constantly being swallowed up by this vast forest. Every time he died, his only thought was to try again, which also made his report far away.
Not only him, but also other people in the office were in a similar situation. Everyone was immersed in the world of "Card Heroes" and completely forgot about their work.
This game is really too easy to get to the next round.
