Chapter 478: Starting from the bud of the first life underwater
The game starts with the CG animation, which is a full moon emerging from the sea level.
Bright and translucent, the uneven pits on the moon's surface can be clearly seen.
Above the deep and swaying sea level, there are flickering lights. Under the dim lights, a man is drawing the latest route with ink.
The man looked at the map in his hand. There were still traces of ink on the wet parchment.
His eyes became far-reaching, and the places beyond the new route also represented new continents and new civilizations.
Human nature is to constantly push ourselves across new boundaries, test our own limits, and face our fears. He looked at the woman beside him, pondered and then whispered, "The tide of history is constantly changing. If we want to reach the end of the journey, we must continue to adapt. , move forward bravely.”
How do we know we have reached the end?
Yinzi followed the question and fell into deep thought. The life of a nation is civilization, so where is the end of civilization?
Before he could think of the answer, the scene transitioned amidst the burning candlelight. A man wearing a holy white robe and holding a torch stood on the arm of the giant statue of Apollo, the sun god.
The blue-gray stone statues are lifelikely carved, and there are ropes on their arms specially used for climbing.
In the palm of the sun god's hand, he held a large bowl filled with fuel, and the torch also fell from the man's hand toward the shining black water.
The sweeping flames ignited the entire palm of his hand, like a **** touching the sun.
In the burning flames, he saw the immortal Great Wall, the hanging red lanterns, the gorgeous fireworks, the sweater caravans, and the prosperous ancient Daxia!
When the fireworks in the sky faded, the wing cavalry and rear-loaded lancers in the snow attacked together.
In addition to the speeding arrows, there are also burning and exploding artillery fire, demonstrating the changes of a civilization from ancient civilization to the era of thermal weapons.
Before I could react, I saw this day again. The Wright brothers invented the airplane.
On this day, humans conquered the sky.
When the plane fell and rose again, it was World War II. It was an eternal artillery fire, and the sky was no longer the limit.
When a button is pressed, the picture that jumps again has changed to a human wearing a space suit.
Human exploration will never stop, human progress will never stop, we will compete in the galaxy, and mankind will be supreme!
It wasn’t until he finished watching the opening CG of the animation that Yinzi came back to his senses, with a shock that never dissipated in his heart.
In the animated CG clip of just over a minute, he saw the ancient period of the statue of the Sun God, the classical period when the Great Wall was located, the Battle of Vienna where the Hussars attacked, modern aircraft, and modern warfare. …
“Oh my god, is this game so awesome?” He unconsciously clicked on creating a game without even watching the tutorial.
Isn’t it just a turn-based strategy game? What's so hard about this?
“When I play a dozen games in single-player mode, I’ll be ready to play multi-player online games.” Yinzi didn’t care. His many years of game experience told him that he didn’t need to read the tutorials at all. He would know it after playing a dozen games.
It's like the skill descriptions of League of Legends. Some of the words are too much to bother to read. You can tell what the effect is after just two clicks.
"There are quite a few civilized countries to choose from." He frowned and looked at the description next to the country's civilization. Each civilization has different attributes. In addition to the introduction of civilization, there are also productivity, siege units, Different familiar introductions such as livability.
There are many game difficulty options, ranging from pioneer to god, divided into eight levels. In order to facilitate understanding and learning, he directly chose the first pioneer difficulty.
In addition, there are more choices, map type, map size, disaster intensity...
Seeing that he skipped the novice tutorial, Danmaku was dumbfounded. ‘It is recommended to choose Peter the Great. This game only has Peter the Great and other civilizations. ’
‘Damn it, you missed the most essential thing! ’
‘If you skip it, you won’t understand the game at all! ’
‘It was a joke upstairs, but I couldn’t understand it if I didn’t skip it. ’
‘Get straight to work and start your greatest exploration! ’
…
The first thing he saw when he entered the game was a small land. The game prompted him to build his own country on the land. Beyond the square inch of land, the map in the distance was hidden under the fog. It seemed that he needed to explore to know what was behind.
From the first sprout of life under water... to the giant beasts of the Stone Age... to the first time humans walked upright, you have experienced a lot...
Listening to the opening remarks of the game, Yinzi looked at the game interface and was a little silent.
Inside the screen, a small piece of land was divided into many grids, and there were many symbols on the interface that he didn't understand very well. Although he knew all the words, he didn't recognize them when they were connected together.
Whether it is building an ordinary house or clearing wasteland, it costs one grid, and after being unable to take any more actions, he has no choice but to choose the next turn.
After playing around for a while, he felt that he didn't get the essence of the game because he was still a little confused and didn't know what to do.
Originally I wanted to give up and stop playing, but then I thought about how many people like to play.
This must be my own problem, it must be a problem that I haven’t understood clearly...try again...
Yinzi pressed his temple and muttered in a low voice. This is almost the status quo of game players. Before they understood the game, everyone found it annoying.
Once you understand it, no one can escape the law of true fragrance.
“...can anyone really play with such a complicated thing?”
“I really can’t imagine how everyone got through it in the beginning.” He looked at the number of daily active users of this game. If he hadn’t recently squeezed into the top ten and was stuck among old rogue games, he would have definitely thought that this game manufacturer was cheating. Daily life!
Then I had to sigh with emotion. Sure enough, as long as the game is made with care, no matter how complicated it is, players will feel the quality of the game with their heart, even if it is very complicated.
The most important thing that gamers lack is the patience to master a game.
But looking at the symbols and word information on the screen, he had to admit that the pig brain was a bit overloaded and not very useful.
“This is the second time I’ve seen someone dare to make a game so complicated and still have people buy into it.”
“Wait for me to take a look at the tutorial.”
As he spoke, he clicked on the video software and started searching for related content.
After entering the word "civilization", a series of videos suddenly appeared.
【Civilization tutorial that can be understood by novices】—182k views.
【Civilization animation CG, shocking opening! The life of a nation, civilization! 】—Play volume 104w.
…
Yinzi’s mouth twitched when he saw that the novice tutorial had more views than the animated CG, it turns out that no one can understand it!
I have been experiencing cervical pain all night, and I feel dizzy and nauseous, as if I was dizzy in 3D. I usually practice Baduanjin after watching too much on my mobile phone and computer, and it will really make me feel better.
