After the official release, posts about "Prototype" began to occupy the discussion areas of major vr games. In the chat groups of players, a large number of players spontaneously posted about this game.
Players have an attitude towards this game: "Cool!"
In fact, the previous "Dark Soul" has made many players a little suspicious of life, but now, after playing "Prototype", these players' suppressed emotions have been perfectly released.
On the forum, there are many discussions about "Prototype", but the style of painting is completely different from "Dark Soul".
In the posts of "Dark Soul" at that time, some complained about the difficulty, some shared gameplay experience, some appreciated the level design, and some analyzed the plot...
But in "Prototype of Massacre", there are none of the above, only one kind of post: This game is really cool!
Indeed, the difficulty, gameplay, and level design are nothing to analyze, because they are very common. As for the plot, in fact, the last scene is more topical, and everyone is very qualified to avoid spoilers.
Everyone feels the same, but this game is very cool!
And how cool it is, most people can't tell why, they have to experience it for themselves.
Many players are addicted to it, because in the vr mode, whether it is parkour on the building or fighting with the army in Times Square, the experience is very exciting!
Especially parkour on the building. At the beginning, many players were not used to it. When they fell from a high altitude, they would be frightened and screamed. But after falling a few times, everyone got used to it. Inexplicable expectations!
After all, in the real world, very few people have experienced the feeling of falling from a high altitude. Those who have experienced it have either played bungee jumping or the grass on the grave is several meters high.
In the vr game, although the feelings in all aspects cannot be compared with the real scene, it is already very close.
Especially as the player's ability is continuously unlocked, more mobile abilities can be obtained, such as air stabbing, gliding, fast rolling, etc. Those skilled masters can really experience the joy of flying in the air at will when controlling alex Feel!
On the other hand, after the release of "Prototype", Alex's popularity has also increased, and he has become one of the most representative game characters!
And "Welcome to the top of the food chain" and "Brother A" have also become two very important keywords.
Some well-known up masters also took advantage of the popularity of "Prototype" and released Alex's character album.
All this means that Alex is not just the protagonist of a game, he has become a classic character in the game, even a virtual idol!
It can be said that the success of "Prototype" is inseparable from Alex's image, and many people specifically analyze the success of Alex's image.
First of all, Alex's popularity is mainly due to his handsome face, handsome face is only part of it, the most important thing is his clothes.
He wore three layers of clothing on his upper body, from the inside to the outside, a white shirt, a hooded sweater, and a black jacket. The lower body is jeans and black leather shoes.
Especially the black jacket, with two white rings on the upper arms of each hand, and a red wing-shaped pattern on the back.
The most annoying thing is that the zipper of the sweater must be pulled to a position slightly lower than the chest, and the top two buttons of the shirt must be undone. Shirts must never be tucked into trousers, and the hem should be slightly exposed outside.
This kind of clothing collocation highlights the freedom and rebellion of the young group, but it is not so exaggerated and looks very deep while being cool. In addition, the hood covers most of Alex's face very well, which makes him more mysterious while conforming to the aesthetics of young people.
It well highlights the characteristics of alex who doesn't talk too much.
It can be said that even with today's aesthetics, this outfit is still very handsome. Even this outfit about Alex can be found on major shopping websites, and the sales are not bad.
Secondly, Alex's ability design is very perfect. This kind of powerful cheat not only did not collapse the plot, but brought the player an extreme sense of refreshment.
Alex can climb walls, use various weapons, gain other people's memories, and turn into anyone he eats. With super speed, attack power and defense at the same time, he is the perfect template.
Moreover, these abilities are all unified under the same package, and they all originate from viruses. Players don't think it's wrong to put so many superpowers on the same person, but they think it's awesome!
Even in Chen Mo's previous life, Alex's ability influenced a large number of online novel authors. Elements of Alex's viral ability appeared in many modern urban themes, supernatural themes, and end-of-the-world themes.
It can perfectly fit the cheating setting in online novels, and it can also show the rationality of Alex's ability design from another angle.
Finally, there is Alex's personality charm, which is also the most exciting part of the game plot.
From the beginning, whether it is the novice teaching in Times Square or the opening of the morgue, it can create an atmosphere of suspense, allowing players to guess: Who is Alex? Who is he going to take revenge on? And why did he wake up in the morgue
As the plot continues to advance, Alex encounters more and more powerful enemies, unlocks many different abilities, and solves various mysteries.
However, the truth surprised Alex and the players in front of the screen.
Alex experienced a cruel childhood, so he doesn't trust anyone, has no friends, and doesn't care what others think of him. He was hired by gentec as a research and development staff. However, due to his personal character, he himself is already a marginal person with anti-social potential.
Although Gentec is a research institution affiliated to Blackwatch, the experiments have gradually gotten out of control. Blackwatch began to eliminate Gentec staff, and gradually silenced them. If there is no accident, Alex will not escape the fate of dying in the dark alley.
In order to protect himself, Alex escaped and brought a black light virus sample as a bargaining chip. But at the train station, Alex was surrounded by black watchmen, desperate, he smashed the virus with a mentality of retaliating against society, and infected everyone at the station.
The virus entered his body and was packed into a body bag and transported back to Gentec, but at this time, the virus was also transforming the cells in his body.
In other words, Alex has been looking for the person who released the virus and mutated himself, but that person is himself.
Moreover, strictly speaking, Alex is no longer the previous Alex, not even a human being.
The current Alex is the prototype of the black light virus, which is the name of the game: prototype. The protagonist controlled by the player is a living body with Alex's appearance and some memories as the default value. It is another black light virus with autonomous consciousness after Elizabeth.
After learning the truth, the vast majority of players, like Alex himself, were completely dumbfounded. Because Alex has been busy so far, just to stop the black light virus, and deep down in his heart, he has always regarded himself as a human being.
In other words, the source of all sins seems to come from himself, that is, the previous human Alex.
