So what kind of game is this? A shooting game? It does seem to have guns...
But what are your time pauses and teleportations?
Action game? It does seem to have action scenes.
After all, the male protagonist jumped off the roof.
But what are those mechanical legs of yours? Is this a medieval setting?
Also, will the male protagonist be killed in the end?
You should make it clear! Lin Yao! Lin Mu Studio! You make a movie... Oh, this seems to be a game promotional video, so that's okay.
Then there is only one question left, when will this game be released?
Gu Zhiyi excitedly held the mouse again and pulled up the purchase link below the store, wanting to see the specific release date.
This promotional video was mixed with many elements, and he was a little confused.
It's the Middle Ages again, it's witches again, it's machinery again, it's time pause again, it's teleportation again...
Advanced and backward coexist.
Magic and science coexist.
It's very strange.
But it also... feels very touching.
Isn’t this as eye-catching as Reflecta’s third child!?
Gu Zhiyi had to admit.
He really wants to play this game, and his willingness is much higher than those escort masterpieces that Reflecta has announced and whose gameplay is clear at a glance.
But he pulled to the pre-order page.
But found.
This game will not open its first round of closed testing until the middle of the month.
It's the middle of the month...
Gu Zhiyi was immediately disappointed when he saw the date.
But at the same time, he also saw the label next to the pre-order. This game did not have Internet capabilities.
That is to say.
This is a stand-alone game...
Linmu Studio's first large-scale stand-alone game.
Gu Zhiyi's heart moved and he immediately jumped back to the forum.
really.
Although "The Witch" was released less than half an hour ago.
But on the forum.
There are already all related posts.
Reflecta's post has completely disappeared...
One of the posts quickly caught Gu Zhiyi’s attention.
[Linmu Studio has just released a set of settings, saying it’s steampunk. I don’t understand it, but I think...it’s really awesome!]
…
"The Witch" was announced.
In an instant, a huge wave was created.
Linmu Studio is really well-known after having produced so many games in China.
Coupled with the Vaporwave game platform, both online game users and stand-alone independent game users can use it.
Such high-level publicity is complemented by a handsome art style.
Most users who commonly use the Vaporwave game platform know about "Witch" by Linmu Studio and have seen the game's promotional video.
In the eyes of players, this promotional video for "The Witch" is really completely different from ordinary game promotional videos.
Too complicated.
Even if it’s Linmu Studio’s own previous promotional video.
Be it Breakout or Wrath of the Lich King.
After watching these promotional videos, players can basically tell what the game is about.
For example, "Warcraft" is a fantasy theme.
"Breakout" is about gunfights.
Although there are such things as zombies in "Breakout", in the final analysis, there is still an explanation, it's a virus.
But this time "The Witch".
Many players really can't tell what kind of game it is.
Take a quick look.
It was like an action game with a medieval background, but soon, the appearance of the high-legged guards immediately made the audience who watched the promotional video deny this conjecture.
Immediately afterwards, the exquisite mechanical mask appeared in the hands of the male protagonist, further making the audience feel that this may be an imaginary science fiction world...
But behind.
Super powers to break doors, stop time, and teleport.
It reminds players again.
This game is called "Witch"...
That's weird.
The game is filled with many elements, but is unexpectedly harmonious and interesting.
Very eye-catching.
And many players have also discovered it.
This game is Linmu Studio’s first stand-alone masterpiece. It has no networking capabilities, but the price is as high as 199.
It's obviously a masterpiece with a long single-player campaign.
Lin Mu Studio’s stand-alone masterpiece.
The promotional video and pictures all reveal a unique sense of masterpiece.
It's strange that this doesn't attract attention.
and.
Linmu Studio also understands this very well.
Shortly after the promotional video was released, some setting information was released to answer questions for players who had watched the promotional video.
For example, the background of the game.
In the setting of the game, this is a world where technology and supernatural forces coexist, and the protagonist is located in the brown walled city of Edinburgh.
As the capital of the Archipelago Empire, Brown Wall City quickly developed into an industrial and whaling center after a natural philosopher discovered that whale oil could be used as fuel many years ago...
Also announced at the same time are some setting pictures,
For example, the Tall Guards that players are interested in are heavily armored archers called Gao Dubing, and the cans they carry behind them are whale oil, which is also the power source of the mecha.
As for superpowers.
They are witches from another ethnic group.
Every time you kill a witch, you can gain its abilities.
Including the time pause, teleportation, and telekinesis shown in the promotional video.
In addition to super powers, there are also various weapons in the game, which have also been announced.
Pistols, long knives, crossbows, grenades, wire storms.
Almost every weapon is full of eclectic style and exaggerated decoration.
The appearance is exquisite and rugged, and all use steam, clockwork or human power as the main power.
very handsome.
As soon as this setting information from Lin Mu Studio was released, it was immediately reposted everywhere.
And faced with another doubt from players, what kind of game is this?
Linmu Studio also answered. They named their game style of "Witch"...steampunk.
A whole new style of play.
With the release of setting information by Linmu Studio.
"The Witch" hasn't been released yet, and the forums are going crazy...
"Steampunk! It feels so exciting! [Excited]"
"The promotional video is really cool. I wonder if the actual gaming experience will be like the promotional video, with the ability to stop time and use cold weapons."
"I watched the promotional video carefully. The buildings in it are a mix of Gothic and Baroque styles, with a classical atmosphere, and then mixed with machinery and superpowers. I have to say, you really have yours, Linmu Studio... I am all
I can’t believe this is a game made by a domestic producer.”
"This should be the game that uses motion capture of real movie and TV stars, right? I have to say that the witch in the last scene is very beautiful. Although she is strangled by the neck, she has a superb temperament. I don't know what the game is about."
"This is motion capture? Who is the last female star? The male protagonist also looks quite handsome, what is his name?"
"The test started in the middle of the month. When will the game be released? I can't wait!"
"Hurry up! Hurry up!"
"..."
Domestic players are still like this.
Not to mention the Indo-European speaking countries...
The background story of "The Witch" is originally based on the Victorian period.
Overseas Indo-European speaking countries are more familiar with this period and are more accepting of this background story.
"Witch" was simultaneously launched on the overseas Vaporwave game platform, and relevant setting information was announced.
moment.
The word steampunk has been spread in overseas player communities.
Countless overseas players seem to have discovered a new continent.
Slowly, this even became a trend.
And Reflecta, which is having a huge success in overseas markets and the two major host platforms.
the next day.
Suddenly I discovered it.
The popularity of my own console, the popularity of my own console escort masterpiece... suddenly dropped a lot.
