Sitting in front of the computer, Zhang Yi is also looking forward to unlocking the trial version experience of "Warcraft".
"Hey, why did Nebula Games make an RTS game this time?" Wang Han, who was sitting next to Zhang Yi, was scrolling through messages on his phone while chatting with Qiao Yi.
Neither Wang Han nor Qiao Yi like RTS games very much.
I've played it, but I can't play it.
Because it feels like the operation is too complicated.
At most, I beat computer people.
"I feel that the game "Warcraft" may be different." Zhang Yi said.
As for himself, he occasionally plays RTS games, but he is not very powerful, just at the level of an average person.
It's the kind of thing where you just build troops and then point the mouse at the enemy's base A.
One wave determines the outcome. If all my soldiers are dead, then you win.
If all my soldiers are not dead, then your base will be gone.
"Yes, it's hard to say for multiplayer battles in "Warcraft", but I feel that the single-player mode should be better." Song Ren and Wang Yifan said in the voice channel.
"What plot can RTS have? I almost fell asleep playing the single-player plot of "Human War" before," Wang Han said.
She had also been exposed to some RTS games before, thinking that if there were multiple players, she was tired of playing them on a simple computer, so she wanted to play the single-player story.
The result is really stretched, to describe it in one sentence.
That is, the enemy is coming, what should we do
We defeated the enemy and won, but a new enemy came over.
I really almost fell asleep playing with her.
"You can't compare other manufacturers with Chen Xu. I still trust him, even though he always makes mistakes." Zhang Yi is very confident in "Warcraft".
Especially the CG animation really shocked Zhang Yi.
I have never seen a game company invest so much in RTS before.
Moreover, the brief one-minute CG video content of "Warcraft" at that time also made Zhang Yi very concerned.
Because he feels that this "Warcraft" is different from ordinary RTS, where the so-called single-player plot is directly made into a tutorial level for novices.
He feels that "Warcraft" will really have a complete single-player plot by then.
Thinking back to the subversion of the 'RTS type' and the '700 million development cost' mentioned by Chen Xu. '
Zhang Yi also has a bold guess, that is, whether "Warcraft" will have enough details on the plot.
Like most players, he felt that Chen Xu, who was setting foot in the field of RTS for the first time, might not be good at balancing things in multiplayer mode.
But the single-player plot is different.
This test is level design, and Chen Xu’s level design, think about "Dark Soul" and "Two People", is there any doubt
Therefore, he feels that in the game "Warcraft", Chen Xu is very likely to focus on the single-player plot.
He is quite confident about the games produced by Nebula Games.
He even secretly used his own money to buy a collector's edition of "Warcraft"!
Of course, she must not let her know about this, otherwise he might wash all the clothes in the future.
After all, buying the collector's edition of "Warcraft" is not the key point. The key point is that he has private money.
"Okay, okay, you play first and I'll watch. If it's fun, I'll just try it myself. Anyway, the game can't be run here." Wang Han said to Zhang Yi.
"It's time! Lao Zhang, I've turned off the mic!" Song Ren's excited voice came from the voice channel.
"OK!" Zhang Yi replied and immediately clicked on the "Warcraft" icon.
Entering the game, the Nebula Games logo flashed by.
The first thing that bears the brunt is a cg animation.
It’s the CG promotional animation that Chen Xu released on his official blog.
Zhang Yi has watched it more than once, but this time he did not choose to skip it.
CG content is relatively easy to understand.
This means that humans and orcs are not good friends, but hostile camps, but an evil enemy suddenly falls from the sky, forcing orcs and humans to unite.
Soon the CG animation ended and a UI interface of the game appeared.
The background behind is a scene similar to an iceberg, which should be a scene in the game.
And forget about exiting the game and setting options.
Zhang Yi observed that there are three different choices in the game.
Story campaign, local battle on LAN, and online battle.
However, currently both online battles and LAN are grayed out, and obviously the trial version does not support them yet.
But this made Zhang Yi excited, because judging from the content of the trial version, Chen Xu wanted players to experience the single-player plot. Doesn't this fit his guess
"Let me see what this single-player plot is like!" With excitement, Zhang Yi clicked the button for the plot battle with great anticipation.
The story campaign is no different from other games. You can select the difficulty before entering.
Easy, Normal and Hard.
Regarding this aspect, Zhang Yi thought carefully and chose the easiest difficulty level.
"You're so embarrassed." Wang Han next to him couldn't help being speechless.
The easiest is the easiest. What does it mean if your mouse hovers back and forth between hard and normal for three or four seconds, and you don't select the last one
"Ahem... This is Mr. Chen's game after all. Think about "Dark Soul" and "Monster Hunter: World". I am planning for a rainy day." Zhang Yi coughed awkwardly and explained.
After selecting the difficulty, what appeared on Zhang Yi's current screen was 'Chapter 1'. Obviously, this single-player plot is a linear game and needs to be played chapter by chapter.
