Chapter 450 Joystick Life
When the first post related to Dark Souls appeared.
Wang Ang, everyone's dear Uncle Lin, was also playing the game...
He entered the game later than most players.
Because he had to go to work today and deal with some things.
When he came back from the company, it was already past twelve o'clock and the game had been unlocked.
But Wang Ang couldn't wait any longer. As soon as he came back, he took out the switch, then collapsed on the sofa, ready for a pleasant gaming journey...
Because he couldn't wait for the physical version, he had already pre-downloaded the game while dealing with things in the company.
Now.
Just start playing.
Perfect!
Wang Ang laughed while starting the game, and praised his own wit.
When he just started entering the game.
He was in a good mood...
"Create a character? RPG?"
"The optimization is good! The frame rate is stable at 60, and the texture quality is not bad. Although some jagged edges can still be seen, the overall atmosphere is great!"
"Dungeon? A tribute to ARPG, right? Okay, it feels like that."
"Hmm... zombies?"
"The tutorial allows players to check it themselves so as not to ruin the experience? It's worthy of Linmu Studio!"
"B, BOSS?" "
..."
But soon.
Wang Ang was speechless...
He basically experienced everything that Yu Huai experienced in the Northern Undead Asylum...
And he finally left the Northern Undead Asylum with "untold hardships" and saw the performance of the giant eagle. Yu Huai's feelings were similar.
He also had the feeling that the dream and the game had finally begun...
At the same time, he also had the idea that the next game should not be as disgusting as the Northern Undead Asylum...
"Can it be upgraded? It's really an RPG!"
Wang Ang came to the Firelink Shrine and was a little surprised to see the game prompt.
He sat down at the campfire and took a quick look at the attributes.
It was very complicated.
In the game, there are not only eight attributes that can be added, but also many attribute items. In addition to the conventional health and endurance, as well as various defense values, there are also toughness, bleeding, poison resistance and other things.
Wang Ang looked carefully and then breathed a sigh of relief.
It is indeed much more complicated...
The attributes of the Legend of Zelda are very simple. The attack power depends on the weapon, and the defense power depends on the clothes and decorations. Although there are also effects such as potions and food, in general, it is a very simple addition and subtraction.
But this game is obviously different.
Rather than a traditional ACT action game, it is more like an RPG.
"Let's add strength first."
Wang Ang looked at the various attributes of the game and added the strength that he thought was the most important according to his instinct.
"I see, after killing the enemy, you can get the opponent's soul, and then the soul can be used to upgrade... It's really for adults."
Wang Ang sighed while controlling the character to leave the campfire and came to the person sitting next to the fire sacrifice site and chose to talk.
"Well... you came just in time. I haven't seen newcomers for a long time. I think you are here for those things, right? The mission of the undead... haha, it's the same for everyone.
When you are cursed, everything is over. It is a wiser choice to stay in the undead asylum... you have suffered."
"But it doesn't matter. I'm free anyway, so I'll teach you."
"There are two awakening bells mentioned in the mission of the undead. One is placed above this place, in the bell tower of the undead church. The other is placed deep below this place, in the ancient ruins under the sick village. It is said that as long as these two bells are rung, something will happen.
But... who knows it will be like this? At least as far as I am concerned, I have never heard of what happened later... it doesn't matter anyway.
Let's get on the road quickly. You came to this cursed land of the undead, isn't it for this matter?... Hahaha."
Wang Ang chose to talk.
The man sitting by the campfire said a lot.
It should be some kind of guidance.
But the mission did not come out.
Because he didn't seem to care what the player did...
and in the end... this B seemed to be gloating.
"Is that all?"
Wang Ang continued to talk.
Then... he was laughed at by the other party for looking like a ghost.
If he continued to talk, he would talk about the route and tell Wang Ang how to get to the sick village and the undead town.
But the mission didn't come out.
"Are you letting the players explore everything?"
Wang Ang moved the joystick and looked around. After coming to this conclusion, he completely forgot about the unpleasantness in the Northern Undead Hospital and became a little excited.
Here they come.
Linmu Studio, which lets players decide everything and how to play, is here...
and this game seems to have gone a step further, without even the most basic main line guidance. If the player does not choose to talk, he probably doesn't even know what he needs to do...
But, think about it, such a big person sitting there, the player can't ignore it, everyone will go to talk to him.
This is also a kind of clever soft guidance!
Interesting!
"Very good, after that brief unpleasantness... let me see if your altar is stable! Lin Yao!"
Wang Ang sat up from the sofa, said this, and then excitedly controlled the character to walk directly to the most conspicuous road.
He was not like Yu Huai, who took the most intuitive and normal path at the beginning. Going
all the way up.
He also encountered mummies holding shields and swords.
But he was lucky. He chose to pull it to his side, and then he was not baptized by the flame pot, and finally solved the two monsters below without any danger.
But let's be honest.
The pressure... is really strong. Because of the experience of the Northern Undead Asylum, Wang Ang always felt terrified when he saw the mummies rushing up with shields and knives... "Not that bad."
After swinging his knife to kill two enemies, Wang Ang smiled a little reluctantly. In fact, when he saw the first monster, the facts were already in front of him. The monsters here are exactly the same as those in the Northern Undead Asylum... and their equipment is even better. But he really couldn't believe it, or rather, he didn't want to believe that Lin Yao didn't play by the rules in Dark Souls, the spiritual sequel to The Legend of Zelda in his mind... Not really... Wang Ang thought as he controlled the character to continue going up. On the slope. A mummy was throwing a fire pot. Wang Ang walked up slowly, his eyes fixed on the monster that threw the fire pot. He took advantage of the gap when the other party threw a fire pot and ran up quickly, wanting to get rid of him while it was on CD. The map design here is actually quite interesting. The uphill road is slightly to the right, and the left side is a mountain, which will block the view... In addition, Wang Ang has been staring at the monster throwing the fire pot, so he subconsciously ignores his left side. So he walked up, and before he could do anything. On the left, a small monster with an axe suddenly jumped out of the blind spot of vision, and jumped and chopped! "Ugh!" accompanied by a scream from the character. Another small monster directly threw a fire pot. Bang. [YOU DIED] "..." Wang Ang was stunned, and in an instant, his hands and feet were cold! ! What the hell? There are still monsters there? He was stunned for a while, and then he controlled the character to return to the previous position. This time, he no longer stared at the monster that threw the flame pot, but looked at the other side. Sure enough. As soon as he walked up the slope, the hatred of a monster over there was triggered and rushed up... But... Is it that serious? Why is it so vicious! What happened to Linmu Studio! ! Wang Ang swung his knife to get rid of the two monsters here, and fell into deep thought. It’s no use deceiving yourself. He now has to admit that this game has nothing to do with "The Legend of Zelda"! Wang Ang has fully realized this after playing for a while. He continued to control the character forward with cold hands and feet, and walked into a place like a sewer. Then he walked forward subconsciously. But halfway through. "Ugh!" With the character's muffled groan, the blood bar was reduced again. The poisoning sign also appeared. Wang Ang hurriedly controlled the character to turn his head, just in time to see a huge rat with wounds and pus all over its body biting his butt. At the end of the sight, there was a white light floating... The rat was very damaging and poisonous. Fortunately, the opponent did not have a strong desire to attack and did not kill him directly in three hits, otherwise he would have died directly. Wang Ang chopped the rat to death with the sound of the sword scraping in the narrow sewer, and then returned to the place just now. So. Just now he came into the sewer and walked forward subconsciously, but he did not notice that there was a section of space behind him. And the rat was hiding there... But... Is it that serious! ! ? Wang Ang picked up the props and asked his soul again, his hands and feet became colder and colder. He finally stabilized his mind and continued to control the character forward. Soon. He walked out of the sewer and came to the bottom of a staircase leading up. On the long staircase, the weak sunlight shone on the top, as if foreshadowing hope. Wang Ang saw the sunlight at the top of the stairs, breathed a sigh of relief, and controlled the character to run up quickly. This is human instinct. After all, no one wants to stay in the dark sewer. Then. He just ran up the stairs, ready to greet the sun... When he turned around, he saw two monsters. The monster closest to the stairs saw him, jumped up and chopped him on the head... Wang Ang: "..." Roll! Roll! Roll! ! Wang Ang saw the other party jump and chop at him, and the moment his health bar was reduced by a large part, his heartbeat was immediately 180! ! He began to control the character to roll randomly.
It was okay.
The opponent hit him hard, and he was not bad at hitting the opponent either.
In the end, he still got rid of two monsters.
But... Wang Ang's hands and feet became even colder.
Really.
He felt that this game was full of malice!
And he really thought that it would be much better after coming out of the Northern Undead Asylum, but now it has not been long since he came to the new area.
He encountered monsters hiding in the blind spot of the vision, monsters hiding behind the player's buttocks, and sudden attacks...
It was outrageous!
"Uh!"
Wang Ang got rid of the monster, and before he could retract his thoughts, he subconsciously came to the white door not far away, and another monster came out behind him.
The blood bar he just filled up was reduced again.
He controlled the character to turn his head, and it turned out that there was a room behind the white door... The monster was in the room.
You tm...
Wang Ang got rid of the monster, and looked at the blood bar that was reduced by half, and his blood surged slightly.
He took a deep breath and told himself to calm down, calm down! Linmu Studio should not treat players like this...
They must have deeper considerations!
Well.
Wang Ang took a deep breath, passed through the white door, and continued forward.
Then.
A giant dragon suddenly roared past, stepped on the city wall, and shook the protagonist.
But soon, it spread its wings and flew away.
"Dragon!"
Wang Ang was slightly frightened by the performance, and then excitedly moved the joystick to look in the direction where the dragon left.
When he finished watching the dragon and adjusted the view again.
The monsters not far away had already rushed up...
and then there were monsters shooting arrows on the tower in the distance.
Wang Ang: "..."
[YOU DIED]
Resurrected again.
Ran all the way here.
"Fuck your dragon!"
Wang Ang cursed, and then stared at the front with full concentration, and would never look at the dragon.
And this time, because he was prepared, he beat it.
Soon.
Walked to a high place.
The bonfire appeared in front of him.
Instantly.
Wang Ang felt relieved.
But he didn't know that this was the beginning of his nightmare...
Wang Ang sat by the bonfire, and then used the soul he had earned with his own blood and sweat to upgrade to the next level.
"I've leveled up again. It shouldn't be that hard to beat, right?"
Wang Ang controlled the character to leave the campfire. This time he added blood. Seeing the slightly longer blood bar, he had a little more confidence.
The next map
was indeed smooth at the beginning.
But when he came to the tower, the three big shield brothers taught him a lesson again.
[YOU DIED]
Facts have proved that
the blood bar is a little longer, but it is useless...
At this time,
the switch handle in Wang Ang's hand was already full of sweat.
Resurrect at the nearest campfire.
Wang Ang looked at the monsters that were resurrected with his resurrection, pressed pause, put down the switch, and clenched his fists with both hands.
After a while,
he picked up the switch again and pushed forward again.
This time,
he pushed forward very carefully. When he met the three big shield brothers, he was even more cautious, seducing hatred one by one, and then solving them one by one.
Seeing the three big shield brothers being solved by himself.
He was still unharmed.
Wang Ang felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart.
However, his sense of accomplishment did not last long... He turned a corner and suddenly saw a treasure chest. He subconsciously controlled the character to walk towards the treasure chest, but the treasure chest was high up and could not be opened from this position.
Looking at the treasure chest.
Wang Ang was thinking about how he could open the treasure chest, and then he found a road next to the treasure chest...
He subconsciously controlled the character to walk down.
Then he saw a tall knight wearing dark heavy armor standing not far away...
The moment he saw the knight.
Wang Ang turned around and ran.
But it was too late.
The black knight had already discovered him and rushed up with a shield.
Wang Ang ran hard, trying to pull away from the hatred.
But the other party's hatred seemed to never dissipate, chasing all the way, and after catching up, he stabbed him with a knife.
[YOU DIED]
Wang Ang: "..."
No more! I'm not going!
I only take the right path! I won't take any side roads!
Eat shit!
Wang Ang, who was resurrected again, became increasingly irritable. He pushed forward to the original place again, and then he didn't go anywhere, and stepped directly onto the stairs going up.
Go up and around the corner.
Just halfway up.
Wang Ang saw a monster on top, and the monster also saw him, so he lit the barrel in front of him and pushed it down.
The burning barrel rolled down and hit Wang Ang on the head.
The character fell to the ground with a scream.
The monster on top rushed up again with a knife.
[YOU DIED]
Wang Ang: "..."
I don't want to play anymore!!!
Resurrected again.
Wang Ang was about to cry.
Died again...
He looked at the monster that had resurrected outside the campfire room, and wanted to cry but had no tears.
"Try again, try again!"
Wang Ang squeezed the switch console hard, and because he squeezed too hard, the handle made a strange sound.
He prepared himself mentally again, thinking about trying again, and controlling the character forward again.
He solved the monsters blocking the way, solved the big shield brother, avoided the rolling wooden poke, and then solved the monster at the top.
Finally.
Wang Ang came to a brand new place.
The spiral staircase wound upwards and looked safe.
But Wang Ang was already scared. Every time he died, the monsters would resurrect, and he couldn't stand it...
So even if there seemed to be no danger, he was cautious and looked back every three steps.
But to his surprise,
he did not encounter any accidents when he went upstairs.
The shot of the stairs showed a white door.
Is this mercy for the players?
The moment he saw the white door,
Wang Ang even felt that Linmu Studio was pitying the players...
He controlled the character to come to the white door and then passed through it.
Behind the door was a long wall, which looked like nothing.
But when Wang Ang ran forward for a distance, arrows suddenly flew behind him.
There was a monster on the tower behind him just now.
Never mind.
Wang Ang was shot with an arrow, looked behind him, and then looked at the exit not far away. He felt it was too troublesome, so he drank a bottle of elemental bottle and planned to run over regardless.
He ran all the way.
The arrows behind him finally couldn't hit him.
The exit was also in front of him...
Wang Ang breathed a sigh of relief, and when he felt that he was about to run over,
bang-
a huge monster suddenly fell from the sky and landed on the wall, causing the entire wall to tremble.
Then,
thump thump...
the passionate tune with the unobvious chanting BGM sounded.
【Mino-Headed Demon】
BOSS battle, start!
"????"
Wang Ang looked at the demon that suddenly appeared in the middle of the road, almost blocking the entire way. If you don't adjust the perspective, you can't see the end. The oppressive demon.
He jumped up from the sofa in fear.
Snap.
At the same time, because he was frightened, he subconsciously exerted too much force.
The right joystick of his switch made a sound as if it was about to break...
and the next second.
Just when Wang Ang didn't know whether to care about the handle or the boss.
The behemoth swung the huge wooden hammer in his hand and hit him on the head.
Then.
A sweep!
Then...
【YOU DIED】
Familiar resurrection.
Familiar bonfire.
Familiar stand up.
The familiar monsters outside...
"..."
Wang Ang held the switch, glanced at the scene outside the bonfire, then lowered his head and gently flicked the joystick on the right side of the handle with his thumb.
Snap, Snap...
The joystick made a strange sound.
Wang Ang was silent for a moment, then stood up, raised the switch in his hand high, and threw it hard on the sofa!
"Fuck!!!"
There should be another chapter
