Chapter 830: I Choose Assassin's Creed (3rd Update)
As soon as the second promotional video came out, the players exploded instantly!
Not only domestic players, but also foreign players didn't expect that Chen Mo would come for real!
At the beginning, when the promotional video of animus was released, many players thought that Chen Mo was just a gimmick, but judging from the second promotional video, Chen Mo really planned to make a historical game!
The second promotional video has explained the story background of this game very clearly, the three main characters in it: Caesar, Cleopatra and Ptolemy, these are all famous people in world history, especially Caesar, but the famous leader of Rome, as long as you have learned a little world history, who doesn't know?
In Chen Mo's previous life, Cleopatra had several very famous versions, played by Vivien Leigh, Liv Taylor, Billy Zane and Monica Bellucci and other famous actresses, which had a very wide influence.
In the parallel world, similar film and television themes are also emerging, although there have been no particularly excellent film and television dramas in recent years, but every player who is interested in world history is basically familiar with this history.
In addition, the theme and protagonist of this game have actually been revealed in the video.
The name of the game is Assassin's Creed, which means that it is a story about assassins. And Bayek's figure has always appeared in the video, and finally came to the center of the picture, directly highlighting his protagonist.
Moreover, the video also involves a large number of real-life game scenes, including a variety of Egyptian-style buildings, costumes, characters, battle scenes, and so on......
There are too many dry goods, and many players are not used to it.
When the first promotional video came out, many players were complaining that there were too few dry goods! Didn't say anything!
But after the second promotional video came out, players suddenly found that there were too many dry goods and they were a little at a loss......
The only thing that is certain is that Chen Mo is indeed going to do things again, to do a game field that he has never touched!
β¦β¦
Seeing this promotional video, foreign players are even more excited than domestic players.
Because in this promotional video, the whole of Egypt is shown in an almost real-life way, including customs, architecture, war scenes and those big figures in history, it is like an encyclopedia, almost everything.
For a long time, foreign players' yearning for Egypt is very strong, and this ancient mysterious country has a very fatal attraction for European and American players, otherwise the story of Cleopatra would not have been remade so many versions.
However, there are very few game themes with Egypt as the protagonist, and even if there are, they are basically concentrated in the field of exploration, nothing more than rubbing ancient buildings such as pyramids and sphinxes, or adding some Egyptian elements such as mummies and scorpions, and there has never been a game that can generously place the story in ancient Egypt and show the whole of Egypt in a panoramic way.
On foreign forums, discussions about Assassin's Creed: Origins instantly became a hot topic, and players instantly burst into enthusiasm.
"Assassin's Creed! I love the name! Is this a brand new series of games from Serent? β
"I didn't expect the two promotional films to be so different, the first one is about an inexplicable thing called animus throughout the whole process, and the second part actually directly left animus and traveled to ancient Egypt two thousand years ago? What a surprise! β
"Is this all the reality of the game? Will Celent continue to play a cinematic game about the epic story of Caesar and Cleopatra? The picture of Thunder Mutual Entertainment is still very worth looking forward to! β
"I'm more concerned about the core gameplay and combat system of this game, should it be a cold weapon combat like Dark Souls?"
"Wouldn't that be better!"
βnononoοΌ That's not good at all! I hate Dark Souls, I'm just interested in Egypt, I just want to see in Egypt, please don't let me live like an immortal! β
"Anyway, it's good news that Silent is going to make a new game, it seems that he didn't bother with last year's success, and this year he turned his attention to historical games, which is really good news!"
β¦β¦
And the first reaction of domestic players is not how excited, but very lucky: great, there is no need to buy "Castle: Medieval"!
Although 4K games are not good people for Chinese players, they always use the machine to turn over the Chinese and fool things, but after all, the game is still a good game.
Many domestic players are also unhappy and boycott, but after all, there are still many players who are interested in similar themes and can't help but want to buy.
If there are no good competing games in the near future, many players may really want to buy "Castle: Medieval", but now that Chen Mo has released the promotional video of "Assassin's Creed: Origins", what is there to hesitate about? Which game should I choose, don't have any points in my heart?
If the two games have different themes, then maybe some players who prefer historical themes will have to worry about it, but now it seems that there is nothing to worry about!
Although one is about Egypt and the other is about the Middle Ages, they are actually in the category of ancient world history. The vast majority of players prefer cold weapons and exotic atmospheres, and few players are so stubborn not to play from a non-medieval setting.
What's more, there are actually too many medieval games, whether it is a realistic battle or a fantasy battle, the Middle Ages can be said to be the most familiar cold weapon theme for players, and if you watch too much, you will eventually get tired of aesthetics.
Compared to the exotic Egypt, the setting of the medieval game is unappealing.
What's more, Chen Mo's new game also has historical figures like Caesar, which still looks like a very large world, which is much more atmospheric than the approach of "Castle: Medieval" that focuses on only one castle.
"Chen Mo, this is really a charcoal in the snow! I was still struggling with whether to buy Castle: Medieval, but now I don't have to worry about it, I definitely want to buy Assassin's Creed! β
"Upstairs, don't talk too much, what if Chen Mo's new game overturns? I still choose Assassin's Creed. β
"That's it, let's not milk first, 4K games have a good grasp of historical themes, so I chose Assassin's Creed."
Domestic players don't need to think about it as much as foreign players, is there anything to hesitate between Chen Mo and 4K games?
However, many players still have some concerns about the quality of Assassin's Creed, and the biggest problem comes from the graphics.
Judging from the promotional video, if the promotional video is also full of real game scenes, then it means that the picture quality of "Assassin's Creed" is the same as "Uncharted".
But will Assassin's Creed be a cinematic, linear game? If you want to show a panoramic view of Egypt and better reflect the epic sense of the whole story, then it is definitely better to use an open-world approach.
But if you do open world...... Can you hide all the loading bars in the game like in Uncharted?
