As the influence of "World of Warcraft" continues to spread.
More and more new players are also joining one after another.
It has been almost two months since its release.
The first group of hardcore players have basically experienced the joy of taking down the Molten Core raid.
At the same time, the team is also arranging some of the subsequent versions of "World of Warcraft."
Of course, for most ordinary players, dungeons like Upper Blackrock Spire are basically not difficult.
But raids are still difficult for many ordinary guilds to achieve, especially the Thunderfury, Blessed Blade of the Windseeker, which many warriors dream of.
Currently, only the top raid teams can access it.
Inside Molten Core, Ben is working with Zack and other team members to take on the challenges.
"NICE! Finally passed!"
"Leader, you're awesome!"
"Passed! Finally passed!"
As the two behemoths collapsed, a group of people in the team shouted excitedly.
As the leader of the guild team, Ben looked at the jubilant crowd as if it were New Year's Day, and his forehead was covered with black lines.
"What are you guys so happy about? We just passed two gatekeepers!"
Ben looked at the excited people in the team and was speechless.
A bunch of lazy bums!
The game has been online for so long, he didn't even mention things like Thunderfury, and he didn't know when he would be able to collect his T1 set!
After taking down the two gatekeepers, Ben sighed, looking at his gear that had turned red after repeated wipes, and then disbanded this week's group.
"Ben, take it easy. This is a small step in the dungeon, but a big step for our guild," Zack comforted him.
"Ah, never mind, I'm going back to Crystal Lake to kill some murlocs to vent my anger," Ben sighed.
This is something he often does when he's bored.
To this day, he has not been able to forget the monster that took his first blood when he first entered the world of Azeroth.
Murlocs must die!
"Don't kill murlocs, Ben! Look at the official blog! Boss Lucas seems to have a new game!"
Just as Ben was about to use his Hearthstone to return to the place where his dreams began and bully the murlocs.
Suddenly, Hannah's voice came from the voice channel.
Ben, who was about to return to the beginner's village to bully the murlocs, was stunned, but he also opened the official blog as soon as possible.
Many ordinary players who had been following Lucas were also doing similar things.
'Another new game?'
'Damn, so fast?'
'Not really that fast, right? Considering the time, it seems about right, but I've been playing "World of Warcraft" every day and haven't noticed the time.'
'But this new game seems a bit different, cartoon art style? Is it like "It Takes Two?"'
While the popularity of "World of Warcraft" is maintaining steady growth, the promotional CG for Lucas' new game has also arrived.
But after opening it, many players were stunned.
Because at first glance, the art style of this brand new game is actually cartoonish.
It's not that no game companies make cartoon-style games, but most game companies will default to choosing a more realistic art style under VR devices.
Including Nebula Games, although it also has cartoon-style games such as "Super Mario: Odyssey," "The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild," and "It Takes Two."
But none of them are on the VR platform, and this can be said to be the first time.
Therefore, at the same time as the promotional CG was released, players were also very curious about what kind of game this would be?
......
At the beginning of the video, the Nebula Games logo flashed.
Like the opening animation of "Uncharted," it is located on a turbulent sea.
A small boat with a lantern hanging on the bow is sailing on the sea and heading towards the distant lighthouse.
Heavy rain is falling from the sky, mixed with strong winds and lightning.
'Bring me the girl, and our debt will be cleared, that's the deal.'
The first-person perspective lowered his head, and a wooden box was opened in front of him.
Inside were two photos of a girl Zack couldn't see the face of, and a handgun.
He picked up the handgun from the box, and at the same time, the rain blurred his vision.
The camera suddenly came to the clouds, and the game's name logo appeared: "BioShock."
As the screen went dark, symphonic BGM sounded in his ears, and the screen came to a place similar to a library.
Holding a book in her hand, a short-haired girl in blue and white clothes looked at the camera warily.
'Who are you?'
'I'm Dewitt, friend!'
As the screen flashed, the girl's face showed a look of panic.
'He's coming, you... you should leave!'
'Why?'
'You'll regret staying!'
Accompanied by the cry of a hawk, a huge monster appeared outside the window.
Then the ground shook, and the entire building seemed to be collapsing.
As the camera shook, the screen switched.
In the darkness, a man grabbed a hand and ran forward.
'This is not a good place.'
'It's only going to get worse from now on.'
In the dark scene, only the place where the little girl was standing had light, and next to her was a scene similar to an operating room.
The ground was full of bright red blood, and behind her, an old man whose face could not be seen was sitting motionless in a wheelchair.
'The girl is in the fire, and this fire can burn the whole world'
The next moment, the screen came to a huge airship, and an old woman whose face could not be seen was facing away from the camera, and the entire city was plunged into war.
'Although I don't know the details yet, the details won't change this damn ending!'
After this promotional video came out, in addition to being excited, the players also felt a little strange.
The art style of the game is cartoonish, but it is very beautiful, which is not surprising to the players.
Moreover, coupled with the bright to dark color transitions, it adds a feeling of a stage play to the game.
What really makes players wonder is what kind of game is this?
This short, one-minute-long promotional video did not reveal much content to the players.
Every point has a little bit, but every point does not go deep.
It can be said to be the old riddler style as always.
If there must be one thing that can be linked, it is the steampunk theme.
The huge hawk robot in the game, the massive machines, and the airship that finally destroyed the city.
These elements have very obvious steampunk characteristics.
As for other aspects, many players are confused.
"Seriously, who understands this trailer?"
"I'm confused, this damn Boss Lucas is an old riddler!"
"Isn't this normal? It's just a promotional trailer, what information do you expect it to reveal?"
"But I feel a little scared. The cartoon graphics in the front are really super beautiful, but the dark scenes that appeared later scared the hell out of me."
Faced with this short, less than a minute-long promotional video, players are discussing it with each other.
And they reached a consensus that everyone agreed on, that Lucas is simply an old riddler!
It's getting more and more excessive!
