"Maybe the way I open it is wrong. Calm down and show your best."
Yan Qi adjusted his breathing and then continued the game.
This time, after some troubles, he finally killed the first monster he encountered - a very ordinary and trashy ghost.
In "Return to the Shore", although Huangquan Road is the third major scene, because the players have suffered before, the possibility of dying at the hands of ordinary monsters like Guizhan is very slim.
Needless to say, the attributes of the ghosts in "Eternal Reincarnation" have also been adjusted.
Compared with the original ghost, the current ghost is faster, attacks more frequently, and does more damage.
The extremely fast speed of the sword coupled with the extremely high damage made Yan Qi want to complain that Gui Cha was like a peerless swordsman who killed the God of War with just one strike.
If the protagonist is the God of War, then Guizashi should be considered the father of the God of War.
Fortunately, it is a mob after all. Although its damage is high, its moves are very simple, so you can defeat it after getting used to it.
Then, Yan Qi followed the game prompts and asked the God of War to pierce the magic sword into the ground on Huangquan Road.
The resurrection mechanism after death in "Eternal Fall into Reincarnation" and "Return to the Shore" are different.
In "Back to the Shore", the protagonist is an ordinary person who relies on the guidance of the Buddha statue to move forward step by step. The Buddha statue is equivalent to a save point, allowing players to restore their status and refresh the surrounding mobs, while the land statue can collect nearby monsters.
Remnant soul.
But in "Eternal Reincarnation", there are no such Buddha statues and land statues. Instead, after every certain distance, there will be a special "anchor point". The God of War will pierce the magic sword into these places, and use the magic sword to stay.
The next trace.
After piercing it, red and black evil energy will seep out from the crack.
The God of War can be resurrected in these places through the magic sword, or he can kill enemies nearby and let their souls dissipate. After inserting the magic sword in these locations, he can collect the souls and use them to improve his abilities.
If you die before activating the first storage point, the magic sword will automatically collect the three souls and seven souls of the God of War, and will automatically be resurrected at the entrance of Huangquan Road after the Ghost Gate.
Strictly speaking, it cannot be regarded as resurrection. It can only be said to be the restoration of this semi-immortal state, floating in the realm of yin and yang.
Yan Qi continued to move forward, and soon encountered the second ghost, who he solved using the same method as before.
"Huh? Did you drop something?"
Yan Qi couldn't help but perked up. He went over to pick up the prop that fell on the ground and found that it was a soft weapon: a pair of shackles.
This kind of weapon is also available in "Return to the Shore", but no one uses it at all because it is too weak.
"It's a pity. It might be better if it dropped a knife or had a weapon."
"This drop should have a certain probability."
The ghost agents on the Huangquan Road carry a variety of weapons, the most common ones are swords, but some also carry shackles, spears, axes, and hooks.
The ghosts can only drop the type of weapons they hold in their hands. Yan Qi's luck is not very good. The first ghost has a knife but does not drop the equipment. The second one drops the equipment and turns out to be the least commonly used one.
of shackles.
However, Yan Qi thought for a moment and opened the inventory to check the properties of this shackle.
"uh-huh?"
"Something doesn't seem right."
Yan Qi took a look and found that the properties of the shackles seemed to be the same as those in "Return to the Shore" and had not been enhanced in the DLC. They were probably still an unpopular weapon. But even an unpopular weapon had better properties than the magic sword in the hands of the God of War!
Because although the bonus coefficient of this chain on various attributes is very low, at least it still has a bonus. And the bonus columns of the magic sword are all "-", which means there is no bonus at all.
"It seems like it can be dual-wielded?"
Yan Qi immediately equipped the chain on his left hand.
According to the setting in "Return to the Shore", the right hand is the main hand and the left hand is the deputy hand. When using weapons with the left hand, it is naturally a little slower than the right hand, and the damage is only 70%, but the left hand can use some special weapon skills.
In other words, weapons with high damage should be placed in the right hand to deal damage, while functional weapons should be held in the left hand.
In "Eternal Reincarnation", maybe because the protagonist is a warrior god, the speed of the left-hand weapon is the same as that of the right hand, and the damage is 90%.
But even so, the right hand is still stronger.
The reason why Yan Qi put the chain in his left hand was because he still despised the chain in his heart. He felt that the powerful magic sword of the God of War must do more damage than the chain no matter what. Maybe the magic sword had some hidden properties. It was written on the panel.
The data that comes out is not necessarily all the data.
Then, he continued to move forward and fought several ghosts, as well as the ghosts summoned by the ghosts to deal with him.
After the battle came to an end, Yan Qi stopped again and doubted life again.
"This magic sword, are you here to make fun of me?"
Yan Qi discovered that the chain held in his left hand, even when the damage of the off-hand weapon was lowered, was still much higher than the magic sword held in his right hand...
Moreover, the explosion rate of Gui Cha's weapons seems to be very high in this distance from Huang Quan Road. He now has a Gui Cha's knife and a Gui Cha's sword in his backpack.
After comparing their attributes, Yan Qi silently took off the chains and the magic sword and replaced them with Guizha's knives and swords.
It's just that the removed magic sword is not put in the bag like a chain, but is carried on the back, and will be taken out for use when the teleportation point needs to be activated.
After dual-wielding the Ghost Sword, Yan Qi embarked on the journey again.
This time he was surprised to find that the difficulty of the battle seemed to have plummeted!
Of course, you will still die if you are hit. These two weapons do not help to improve the defense of the God of War, but the attack power is really improved significantly, and the efficiency of killing monsters is greatly improved.
"This is the normal rhythm of the game... Although it is still as brittle as a piece of paper, at least I don't have to scratch the monsters like before."
"Although compared with "Return to the Shore", the health of the mobs is still too high, but at least it is playable."
"But, this is a bit strange."
"Although it makes sense from the setting, the experience it brings to players is really a bit bad."
Yan Qi didn't care too much. After all, he was an old player of "Return to the Shore" and had a high tolerance, so he continued to experience the game.
…
Two hours later, Yan Qi temporarily quit the game and rolled his neck, which was a little sore from fatigue.
If we follow the game length of "Return to the Shore", the pure plot flow of the entire game may be completed in twelve or three hours. Of course, this can only be played by someone who is familiar with the game and has no obstacles at all.
In fact, since most players are madly lost and suffering, it is not surprising that the game time can be extended to dozens of hours, and there is no cap.
Not to mention that after you clear the level, you can continue playing for two weeks.
Yan Qi estimated that according to the current official statement, "Eternal Fall into Reincarnation" has been updated by about one-third, which means that the pure plot process should last more than four hours.
Considering that my efficiency in defeating monsters is not high, and I also made some detours due to changes in the route, the current game progress should account for about one-third of the published progress.
Yan Qi looked at the time, and it was almost time to get off work. There was no need to finish all the games at once. This kind of game should be savored slowly.
Keep working hard on the weekend.
Although the content of the experience is not much, Yan Qi probably has these feelings.
First of all, the changes in this DLC are really not big, it looks a bit like a skin change.
From the current point of view, the biggest change is that the identity of the protagonist has been changed, a new opening has been made, the expression of system functions such as save points and upgrades has been changed, the appearance of monsters, fighting style and the appearance and route of the scene have all been changed.
Modified.
But the world is still that world, and the scenes are still the same as the Gate of Hell, the Road to the Underworld, and the Naihe Bridge.
Although there are indeed changes, there are no new scenes at all, which is still a bit disappointing.
Secondly, at present, there seem to be certain problems with the combat system and basic settings of this game.
The Demon Sword has so many scenes, but the damage is so low? It's even lower than the garbage chain in the hands of the ghost.
This makes sense from the setting: no matter how powerful the protagonist is, he is only a martial god in the human world. In the underworld, based on the strength of his soul alone, he can only be beaten by ghosts. And no matter how awesome the magic sword is, it is only a weapon in the human world.
, of course not as good as the spiritual weapon in the ghost's hand.
But...reasonable as it may be, this combat experience is completely fragmented.
Forget about Black and White Impermanence. After all, it is a plot kill. It doesn't matter if you can't beat it. However, the damage of the magic sword is so low that it is very difficult to fight a monster in front of it. So the magic sword quickly becomes a tool sword. It is just inserted into the ground.
It just creates a teleportation point, completely losing its original high-definition style.
"I feel a little disappointed. Although the taste is still the same, I feel that it has lost the amazing feeling."
"Although this DLC is not expensive at all, you can't suffer a loss or be cheated by buying it, but it doesn't seem to be at the level of Mr. Pei?"
Yan Qi opened the forum and read what other players had said.
"This magic sword is too scratchy! It's completely rubbish!"
"I think so too. At the beginning, the character was so high that he was said to be a God of War. But in the end, the God of War was directly pressed to the ground and rubbed by a mob. Is it okay? There is no character at all. It feels like the character has collapsed!"
"I think there is a big problem with the numerical system of this game? The numerical values of "Back to the Shore" before were actually very excessive, but as a suffering game, it is stuck at the limit that most people can accept, so it became
It has become a classic. But "Eternal Reincarnation" is a bit too much, the damage of the mobs is too high, and the damage of the protagonist is too low. This is no longer a way to hone skills, it is purely to disgust players, and there is no sense of accomplishment after suffering."
"The announcement said that the combat system will be updated in the last patch. Maybe there will be some changes by then?"
"Well, I think it's probably like this: suffer in the early stage, and then release the modifications to the combat system at the end."
"Isn't this a bit bad? The combat system is the essence of the entire game. Since everything revolves around the combat system, the combat system must be updated first? What's the point of making us suffer?"
I created a WeChat public account [Book Fan Base] to send out year-end benefits to everyone! You can check it out!
"And this game seems to have no new scenes at all. The original monsters and scenes were changed and used as DLC. I'm disappointed!"
"Fortunately, this DLC is also very cheap."
"It's not a question of whether it's cheap or not. The DLC is being promoted with a lot of momentum. Everyone is expecting it to be as big as "Return to Shore". But the current situation is not satisfactory, right?"
"That is, the core spirit of Tenda is not cheapness, but value for money, and striving for excellence! What we want is not cheapness, but real game content!"
Obviously, many players have the same idea as Yan Qi.
Judging from the current updated content, this part of the game experience is obviously unsatisfactory.
Yan Qi shook his head slightly, wondering what kind of medicine was sold in Tengda's gourd.
Maybe Mr. Pei was too busy and just put up a name and did not participate in the design of the detailed experience of the game, causing the final result to deviate greatly from Mr. Pei's plan?
Maybe the addition of the original author had some impact on the game project?
Maybe it was just the chief designer who wanted to do some tricks, but ended up failing because he didn't have Mr. Pei's ability?
It's all possible.
But after all, there will be four updates, and this is just one update.
As some players emphasized, the combat system seems to have been updated in the last update. It seems a bit premature to conclude that "Eternal Reincarnation" will not work now.
Yan Qi casually browsed the forum again and prepared to go home from get off work.
But just then, he found a post.
"Damn it! I don't know if it was my imagination, but I saw that the God of War seemed to have moved on his own just now!"
Yan Qi was stunned for a moment.
The character moved on its own?
Are you dazzled?
Or...the joystick drifted?
Or is the owner of the post just trying to please others?
Yan Qi has been playing for two hours and has never encountered this kind of character moving on his own, so he instinctively doesn't believe this post.
But curiosity still drove him to click in.
The person who posted the game introduced his game process in detail. At the beginning, just like Yan Qi, he was beaten up and taken away by Black and White Wuchang. The difference was that Yan Qi was only killed once by the ghost with the knife, and then he was killed.
It moved forward smoothly.
But this poster couldn't beat the little monster with the knife no matter what. He was ravaged by all kinds of things and died to the point where he doubted his life.
After dying many times, he challenged Onizashi again, but found that he was destined to die, but the God of War seemed to move and blocked Onizashi's long sword.
But the God of War is still dead, so the author himself is not sure whether he was dazzled or not.
Everyone downstairs obviously didn't believe it either, and they all raised questions.
Before Yan Qi came, this post had been debated by many people. Finally, in order to prove himself, the owner released a screen recording.
When I take a picture of the screen with my mobile phone, the clarity is worrying, but I can see the computer screen and the owner’s hand movements holding the controller at the same time.
It can be clearly seen in the video that when faced with the long knife slashed by the ghost, Wu Shen moved on his own and used the magic sword to deflect the long knife.
This movement was very slight and inconspicuous, and he was not completely immune to damage. Ghost's sword still struck him and killed him.
But if you look closely at the screen recording, you can see that the God of War indeed made a parrying action, and was not controlled by the player.
Obviously, the player just sent the God of War to the monster, and then put down the controller. It was unknown how many times he was hacked to death before he tried this strange but very low-probability phenomenon again.
Yan Qi was stunned.
"What's going on?"
"There is absolutely no such setting in "Return to the Shore". It looks like a new combat mechanism."
"Is something wrong? Didn't you say that the combat system will be updated at the end of this month?"
"Then what does this mean?"
Yan Qi felt deeply puzzled.
Obviously, this must be a suspense deliberately planted by Tengda.
The person who buried the suspense was either Mr. Pei or the person who decided to split "Eternal Fall into Reincarnation" into four parts for release.
…
What Yan Qi didn't know was that Pei Qian and Meng Chang were also looking at this post with confused expressions on their faces.
In their minds, they also had the same doubts and confusion as Yan Qi.
