"This scene is so well done!"

Wang Han, who was sitting next to him, looked at the game screen on the screen in front of him and couldn't help but praise it.

Although she doesn't like playing RTS, it's not like she hasn't played it before.

She can still tell the difference between good and bad in the graphics of "Warcraft" at a glance.

"Not only the graphics, but the game settings also seem to have something special!" Although he is not a hardcore RTS player, Zhang Yi has played it for a while and has a certain understanding of RTS.

Following the system prompts, Zhang Yi looked for the prophet.

When they came to a flag in the middle, the orc soldiers who had appeared in the CG cutscene ran out of the building next to them.

There are three in total, surrounding Thrall controlled by Zhang Yi. Obviously, these are the military units in the game.

Patrolling, moving, attacking, and staying in place. Compared with the general RTS type, the operating functions in "Warcraft" are richer.

But what makes Zhang Yi feel different is the setting of soldiers and heroes.

Thrall in the game is a unique hero who can be upgraded to increase corresponding attributes and also has unique skills.

As for the minions, they only have panel attacks and no special attributes.

In addition, there is a big difference between heroes and minions.

That is next to the skill box on the right, and there is a column of inventory.

While there aren't any items yet, it's clear that the game supports the ability to obtain and use items.

But it seems that it can only be used by heroes.

In the past, there were some special units in games such as "Human War".

For example, siege monsters are strategic control units that can turn the tide of the battle.

In "Warcraft", it is obvious that this hero is more than just that.

Being able to use skills and props may have a great impact on the battle situation.

Moreover, the key points of the hero can still be upgraded, and include development elements such as strength, agility, and intelligence that are usually only seen in games such as RPGs.

This feeling reminded Zhang Yi of the Three Kingdoms, a bit like a general leading soldiers to fight.

In addition to these contents, he also saw some signs of the attributes of the units in the game.

In some past RTS, it was basically a chaotic battle between various types of arms, although there was also the so-called restraint.

But basically they just build troops and then fight each other.

But in the case of "Warcraft", even though he had just started the game, looking at these three green orc soldiers, Zhang Yi could tell something was different from their panels.

The attack attributes and armor attributes of soldiers and heroes are completely different.

This means that when the time comes, the damage done to each other by different arms will also be different.

When Zhang Yi felt the differences in the RTS "Warcraft" from these details, Wang Han next to him was obviously not paying attention to this. As someone who rarely plays RTS, she might not have noticed it at all.

Wang Han is more concerned about the hero named Thrall who is currently controlled by Zhang Yi.

"Your Thrall's main attribute is probably a mage, right? Why is this shape and attribute so weird?" Wang Han interjected next to him.

After hearing Wang Han's words, Zhang Yi also turned his attention to Thrall in the game.

Muscular, holding a giant hammer, and riding a black wolf, look at the attribute points.

16 points of strength, 18 points of agility, and 19 points of intelligence.

If wisdom hadn't occupied the high ground, it wouldn't have been possible to tell that this was a magician!

"This is actually normal. After all, this hero named Thrall is an orc. As an orc, he is more muscular. He rides a wolf and his weapon is a hammer. Don't you think this is reasonable?" Zhang Yi pondered for a moment and said what he said. the opinion of.

"Hmm... It does seem very reasonable, but a mage who plays with a hammer? Why does it feel so weird?" Wang Han looked at Thrall, who was tall and thick in the game, and gave his opinion again.

"It's not necessarily a mage. I can only say that this person named Sal is more intelligent." Zhang Yi explained.

"Oh, okay, don't worry about this problem, let's take a look at the performance of the game!" Seeing that Wang Han seemed to want to say something again, Zhang Yi changed the subject.

After all, these contents are irrelevant.

And actually it's quite realistic when you think about it. After all, it is generally believed that orcs should be big and thick.

If this Thrall becomes a weak little meat, it will make people wonder if this thing is an orc.

"But compared to other RTS games, "Warcraft" has brought a lot of changes and innovations!" Zhang Yi said with some emotion.

Controlling Thrall, Zhang Yi also began to advance a plot mission.

Along with his control, Thrall and the orc soldiers in the game will also give corresponding lines of feedback to the player's orders.

In the battle mode, the lines are basically fixed.

But in the plot battle, Chen Xu still made some changes compared to his previous life.

That is the feedback of various lines, which will be a feedback of scene matching based on the current plot trend, bringing a higher sense of immersion to players.

The plot of the prologue is advanced bit by bit, and at the same time, some contents are gradually revealed in front of Zhang Yi.

For example, a hero has an impact on the battle situation.

Take Thrall as an example. Currently, Thrall in the prologue only has two skills, mainly because players are afraid that they will be confused.

AoE chain lightning for group damage.

And a reconnaissance skill that can see through the fog of war.

As an RTS player, Zhang Yi immediately realized the importance of Thrall's skills.

In the past, RTS actually competed more with one technology.

Whoever's operation is awesome will be great.

As for the mutual restraint of arms and tactics, there is some, but to be honest, the proportion is not big.

But he saw something different in "Warcraft", and that was the changes that heroes brought to the gameplay.

Once a skill is put in place, it may even determine the outcome of an encounter.

Of course, he doesn't know yet whether this is the case in the actual multiplayer mode.

Now he is just advancing the plot of the game step by step.

Because it was played on the easy difficulty level, Zhang Yi felt that it was really easy. He only killed two orc soldiers in the whole process.

After rescuing an orc named Grom Hellscream, Thrall and the orcs in the tribe set sail using human ships.

The next moment, a CG appeared on the screen, which made Zhang Yi excited.

A brand new CG, how much has been done on this game!

On a distant cliff, watching the Thrall fleet leaving, the mysterious wizard murmured: "Let's go! Young Thrall, go to the land of Kalimdor, where you will find your destiny."

As the mysterious wizard in front of him finished speaking, a melodious melody sounded, and before his eyes he turned into a raven and headed into the distance.

The scene fell into a brief darkness, and the raven in front of him passed through the Alterac Mountains, passed through the desolate valley, and finally arrived at a prosperous human city-state: Lordaeron.

Countless voices were discussing in the hall.

The topic they discussed was about orcs and plague.

And the old Terenas of the past was meditating on the throne.

At this time, the raven flew in from nowhere and landed in the center of the hall.

At the same time, the background sound became deeper.

The strange raven in front of him caught Terenas' attention. The raven's body suddenly glowed with a strange green light, and in the astonished eyes of everyone, it actually turned into a human being.

The prophet who previously guided Thrall.

His voice resounded throughout the hall.

"Humanity is in danger, the power of darkness is about to make a comeback, and the whole world is on the verge of war!"

"Listen to me! Your people's only hope is to go west, to the ancient road of Kalimdor in the west!"

The minister in the palace directed the guards to drag the 'madman' in front of him out, and the old king stood up and stopped this behavior.

He looked at the wizard in front of him with a serious face: "I don't know who you are or what you believe! But now is not the time to spread prophecies. Our country is subject to conflict and trouble, but it should be up to us to decide how to best protect it. Our people! Not you! Please leave!"

The wizard lowered his head slowly, and his voice became a little gloomy: "I failed to save mankind once and gave up on humanity, but this time, I will not do that again."

"If you cannot accept this commission, then I will find another who will."

The wizard slowly turned and left, leaving only a whisper that only he could hear.

"I have given the warning and now their fate is in their own hands."

The screen fell into darkness, and the cg ended here, entering a new game chapter screen.

This CG is not very long, only about 3 minutes.

But enough has been shown.

For example, the hostility between orcs and humans, and the mysterious plague also spread in Lordaeron.

And why does the prophet in front of me, who once looked for Thrall, want all humans and orcs to go to Kalimdor in the ancient west.

Taking a deep breath, Zhang Yi did not proceed immediately.

But there is a little excitement and excitement in my heart.

Because it is so sophisticated, even though it has only been less than an hour, "Warcraft" has completely conquered him at least in the single-player plot!

Zhang Yi turned his head and wanted to express his inner excitement to Wang Han next to him, but when he turned his head, he found that the other person had disappeared.

Obviously, I have silently downloaded "Warcraft" and tried it myself.

So Zhang Yi silently opened the voice channel and turned on his own microphone.

"Old Song, what do you think of this "Warcraft"!? This game is simply awesome! I have never played such an RTS game! And this CG is absolutely amazing!"

After saying this, he exited the voice channel.

Anyway, he had finished venting his excitement. He didn’t know the progress of Lao Song for the time being. In order to prevent the subsequent content from being spoiled, it was obviously a good choice to leave after saying this.
