I just want players to save money, but I was made the richest man - Chapter 205

c199 Does this game have defense and counterattack? Then how can I lose?

After being hacked to death by the Crab BOSS, you will automatically enter a short cutscene.

The faded man who fell off the cliff vaguely heard a gentle female voice while unconscious.

“Finally found.

…Don’t worry, Thoret, there is still help. ”

Immediately afterwards, Czcu saw a girl riding a mount that could not be said to be a horse or a donkey.

Wearing a golden brown hooded robe, he jumped off the horse.

He walked slowly to the side of the faded one and squatted down.

“This person will definitely pursue the Elden Circle…

Even if doing so would violate the Golden Law. ”

After a short dialogue of unknown meaning, the CG cutscene ends.

At this time, the player appears in a spacious cave.

In the front, there is a spirit body emitting white light sitting on a chair, seeming to attract players to take a closer look.

Czcu controlled the faded person to go forward and backward, but found that this was the true sense of teaching for novices.

Follow the guidance and jump into the big pit next to the spirit body.

The teaching guide officially begins.

Originally, Czcu was mentally prepared.

After all, games that are labeled as action games are usually a little complicated because they need to highlight action elements.

Even the novice tutorials will teach players some basic combos, skill casting techniques, etc.

Moreover, the main gameplay of each action game is different, which also means that each game has its own sequence of combos.

For players who are new to this game, this requires a certain getting started process.

But what surprised Czcu.

The action elements of “Elden” seem a bit…

Too simple?

A few minutes of tutorial for beginners.

Czcu only learned normal attacks, charged heavy attacks, jump slashes, defense with a shield, and counterattacks with a shield.

It’s gone…

However, these elements are even found in games that are not ACT games…

These are the most basic things, right?

Not even a rising dragon.

And let alone Sheng Long.

It’s a classic action game, “Three basic attacks are a set of combos”, or “One basic attack, a heavy attack, and a basic attack” are another set of combos with different postures.

Not even this one.

There is no such thing as a third company of migrant workers.

The Faded One has only two axes. No matter how Czcu operates, he just waves the sword in his hand left and right.

What makes Czcu even more elusive is that.

Even the mobs given to players for practice in the novice tutorial have very little health.

Almost one knife at a time.

Just this blood line, let alone being familiar with combos.

Even warming up is tough.

It feels like the designers have no intention of letting players delve into the gameplay in the novice tutorial?

“ummmm…”

“This game is so weird.”

“Let’s play some more.”

Czcu was unable to characterize the game at the beginning and decided to explore further.

Soon, he learned how to use combat skills.

That is, the special skills attached to the weapons used by players.

The combat skills possessed by his own shield are relatively classic and are found in many games.

Different shields or weapons have different combat skills.

This is relatively easy to understand.

Going further, after bypassing the narrow corridor, Czcu learned something new.

What I learned this time was to squat down and perform backstab executions around the back.

There are still a few enemies placed for players that can be killed with one or two swords for simple practice.

“I quite like the back-circling execution setting, but I feel that these actions are still too basic.”

“What’s going on, number one player? Can’t you increase your strength?” Czcu frowned slightly.

“At this level of difficulty, I feel like my eight-year-old nephew can easily get started playing this game.”

Czcu still hopes that Ready Player One can come up with something real.

After all, the world has been suffering for a long time.

But based on what has been shown so far…

“I feel like there is no way to compete with “Shadowland”.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a soldier with better equipment appearing in front of him.

The soldier held a silver shield, a spear in his hand, and a metal helmet on his head.

A whole tube of blood bar also pops up while making eye contact with the player.

“Wow! The BOSS is coming!” Czcu’s eyes were slightly excited.

Finally a decent guy comes along.

Can warm up a little!

But just before Czcu rushed out.

A novice tutorial pop-up window pops up again.

[Defensive Counterattack: When you prevent the enemy from attacking, you can immediately use defensive counterattack. Defensive counterattack can make the enemy lose balance and expose flaws]

“Huh?” Czcu was dumbfounded.

“If you take it literally…”

“I can raise my shield to block the enemy’s attack first, and then take the time to slash him? Or even knock him off balance, and then attack him again?”

“Wouldn’t this make me completely invincible?”

“What kind of monster can hurt me?”

While speaking, Czcu glanced at the barrage.

Everyone expressed their opinions.

Don’t just use your mouth, hit it first and then talk.

“Oh, are you looking down on me?” Without saying a word, Czcu rushed directly to the BOSS named [Grek’s Soldier].

“You guys should watch carefully. I’m not saying nonsense when I say this mechanism is a failure.”

As he spoke, he raised his shield directly in front of the BOSS.

After waiting for a moment, the BOSS couldn’t help but take action, raising his spear and poking at the shield of the faded one.

“Dang!”

With a muffled sound, all the opponent’s attacks were absorbed.

At this moment, Czcu directly pressed the defensive counterattack.

“Ding! – Bang!” I saw the faded one whipping out his shield with his backhand, knocking the opponent staggering, and then slashed at the BOSS with his sword.

The blood volume instantly dropped by 1/5

Czcu, on the other hand, took the time to slash out with two swords, directly taking away half of the BOSS’s health line.

Soon, he was up to his old tricks again.

Continue to raise your shield in front of the BOSS.

The moment he waited for the BOSS to attack, he drew his shield again to prevent counterattack, connected two basic attacks, and killed the BOSS cleanly.

It immediately triggered a barrage of questions.

However, the question mark in this barrage is not a recognition of his strength.

Rather, it expresses doubts about the BOSS design of the game “Elden” which seems to be a bit too weak.

“How’s it going? I’ll just say it.” Czcu curled his lips: “Its mechanism is a failure, and it is far worse than the shield contrast.”

“For shield counterattack, you need to seize the right moment and deflect the opponent’s attack at the moment when he takes action. If you don’t grasp the timing well, there will be a failure penalty.”

“But to prevent the counterattack, you can absorb this attack first, wait for the opponent to hit your shield, then bounce it away, and then start outputting. There is almost no failure penalty.”

“Let me put it this way, the existence of this mechanism completely affects the experience of action games. I can’t think of any BOSS that can stop me in the future. I even feel that I can use it to kill all the way through the level.”

To be honest, Czcu was a little disappointed.

Initially, the CG editing was quite good.

And the visual shock brought by the golden tree just now is not bad.

But in terms of combat design, it is really a big deal.

The action design is extremely simple, and there are no combos at all.

The most unsettling thing is that the designers of Ready Player One don’t know what to think.

As if afraid that players would find it too difficult, they even created a failed ‘anti-counterattack’ mechanism.

But is there a possibility.

Let’s just say.

Is your game already very simple?

After defeating Grek’s soldiers, the novice tutorial is officially over.

Although this novice teaching left Czcu speechless.

But in order to explore more content before making an evaluation, Czcu felt that he had to experience it for an hour first before making any comments.

After all, you can basically figure out the general pattern of a game in an hour.

When the time comes, a comprehensive evaluation will not be so biased.

Soon, he followed the path out of the underground cave and came to an underground darkroom.

A bright blessing point appeared not far away.

This thing seems to be a save + blood recovery point. As long as the faded person sits here, he can fill up the blood bottle and unlock the teleportation array in the area.

There is a door next to it that is separated by white mist. When I wanted to explore it, I got the prompt “Stone Sword Key Required”.

Unable to pass for the time being, Czcu had no choice but to move on.

After stepping on an elevator, he went straight up and finally came to a heavy iron door.

After reaching out and struggling to lift the iron door upwards.

Czcu’s eyes suddenly showed a look of surprise.

Since the player was born, the color composition of the surrounding scenes has always been gloomy and dark.

Even though the huge golden tree was emitting light, it was always surrounded by a light-impermeable mist, which was very depressing.

It wasn’t until I opened the iron door just now that my eyes suddenly opened up!

A new world appeared in front of Czcu.

This area called Nimgofu has ample lighting and a wide scene.

Lush emerald green vegetation is everywhere, and there is a vibrant scene everywhere.

A church-like building can be seen in the distance, and the camera pans back.

Czcu once again saw the brilliant golden tree at his birth point!

Compared to looking at it from a distance across the mountains and the sea just now, I seem to be one step closer to the golden tree now, and I can even see the golden lines scattered on the thick trunk.

The lush branches and leaves almost stretch to the top of my head.

“This golden tree looks bigger the more you look at it. Can you see it from any angle in the world?”

“It seems that the final destination is to reach the foot of this golden tree.” Czcu looked down the golden tree trunk.

Although part of the line of sight was blocked by the cliff in the distance, one could vaguely detect a golden city filled with magnificent buildings under the tree trunks.

“I have to say that although Ready Player One is weak in combat design, the scenes and graphics can always hit people’s hearts.”

At this time, Czcu noticed a new blessing point.

Suddenly I felt a little confused.

“I remember just lighting up a blessing point half a minute ago.”

“Why is there another one?”

“There are too many save points in this game. As for…are you really treating players like three-year-olds?”

Next to the blessing point, there was a strange NPC wearing a white mask.

Decisively choose to talk to him.

This NPC’s voice sounded a little frivolous and impatient, which didn’t sound like a good thing.

Learned by talking to him.

This is already the junction, the area mentioned in the CG where the Faded Ones are ordered to go.

However, because the Faded One controlled by the player does not have a finger witch, he cannot get specific guidance, nor can he obtain the power of runes, nor can he be invited to the Round Table Hall.

Soon, Fan Lei mentioned it again.

The blessing points activated by the player will simply give the player a prompt.

Czcu looked carefully.

I found that the blessing point just activated did have a thin line of golden thread floating vaguely.

Pointed out a direction.

Opening the large map shrouded in fog, you can clearly see the direction of the blessing point on the large map.

“I think the direction the blessing point points to must be the city on the cliff, Stonewell.

That city is the residence of the old and ugly demigod, Grek the “Arch”.

…Okay, let’s leave quickly. ”

Then, no matter how much you talk to Fan Lei, nothing more will appear.

“In other words, our next stop is Stonewell, right? Are we supposed to kill demigods right from the start? This is too exciting.”

“However, judging from my current use of ‘anti-counterattack’, it shouldn’t be a big problem.”

“But without a finger, the witch cannot get clear guidance. The blessing only points out a general direction for us to move forward. As for the specific way…”

While speaking, Czcu looked towards the screen.

I saw it not far ahead.

There was a soldier riding a war horse and wearing thick armor, cruising back and forth.

“Okay, let’s ask this guy for directions.” Czcu said the word “ask for directions” in a particularly cunning way, with a sinister smile on his face.

Holding a long sword, he jumped down from the small slope and ran straight to the soldier on horseback.

Little bitch, it’s hot!

Please tell dad how to get to Stonewell City, and I can make you die with dignity!

He rushed to the mounted soldiers in a few steps.

Only then did Czcu realize that this soldier looked different from those he had encountered before.

Just now I couldn’t see clearly from a distance.

Now if you look closely, you will find that this soldier is wearing golden armor. He looks very noble. He also carries a heavy giant long ax on his shoulder. The large round shield held in his left hand can almost cover the entire area. People and horses are covered together.

Even the war horse under his crotch is wearing a golden saddle.

The temperament looks extraordinary.

As a result, Czcu didn’t wait for a closer look.

The mounted soldier seemed to sense that his territory was being invaded.

Turning the horse’s head, the war horse let out a long neigh, and then rushed directly towards Czcu!

And at the moment he rushed over.

Thump thump thump!

The thick and exciting battle background music suddenly sounded!

A tube of red blood bar also appeared at the bottom of the screen instantly!

【Big tree guard】

“This is actually another BOSS?” Czcu was stunned.

How long has it been since it started?

In more than ten minutes, this is the third BOSS I have encountered?

But nothing.

If you are the BOSS, that’s fine.

The comments just now were all saying, ‘It’s because the game is too simple, not because the anchor is strong. ’, ‘This is fine by me, really’

Czcu was still very unconvinced.

Just use this to force the operation!

Czcu raised the shield in his hand and held it in front of his chest, staring straight at the big tree guard who was speeding up from a short distance away, muttering something in his mouth.

“Come on! Watch my defense and counterattack to teach you how to behave!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the big tree guard rushing in front of him, raising the giant ax in his hand high, and struck the horse with a leap forward to stop him and sweep him from the waist!

“Bang!!”

A muffled sound!

With just one blow, the shield in the hand of the Faded One was overturned, and the energy bar was instantly empty!

When the character’s energy gauge is completely empty, he cannot use any moves, let alone any defensive counterattacks. I can’t even lift the shield!

Then, wait for Czcu to react.

The guard of the big tree yanked the horse’s rope and reined in the horse on the spot!

The war horse stopped suddenly, raised its front legs high and made an ear-splitting neighing sound!

The giant ax that exuded a cold golden color was held tightly by the guard of the big tree, and immediately like the power of Mount Tai, it violently smashed towards the faded one!

“boom!!!”

The giant ax made contact with the ground, making a huge noise and sending out billowing smoke.

Also under Czcu’s wide-eyed expression.

direct!

Empty a whole tube of Faded One’s health bar!

There is no way to fight back.

One knife breaks the armor!

Two knives, instant kill!

“Uh-huh~…!”

The Faded One let out a shrill death cry.

Looking at the screen that gradually turned into gray and black, the words GAME OVER slowly appeared.

Czcu stared at the screen in disbelief and almost jumped out of his chair. He was even more excited, his neck turned red and he screamed.

“What the…”

“fuuuuuuck???”

“What the fuck is this????”

“Did you see it? Did you see it??”

“Fuck!! He stabbed him twice!!! He stabbed me twice, give me a fucking second???”

“What the hell kind of game is this???”

At this moment, the originally calm live broadcast room suddenly exploded with barrages!
