preface
Before I knew it, it was the end of the year, and this year, to be honest, there were not many games that attracted me, and even fewer games that could stick to playing for a while. In order to prevent the game from being wasted, when I looked through the STEAM online store every day, I found the official version of "Tribe and Machete". According to my usual habits, this kind of game is a direct refund for a prostitute, which is also worthy of joining my game library?
After playing for a while...
The result, of course, is "true incense", otherwise you wouldn't have seen this review.
After years of sharpening the sword without fear of suffering, this day the sword shines
This game is an open-world role-playing game developed and produced by the domestic Hanjia Squirrel Independent Game Studio, which was originally launched on January 3, 2020 steam EARLY ACCESS early test, and the official version (V1.0) was released on December 16, 2021.
Speaking of Han family squirrels, I am afraid that the vast majority of players will not be impressed, and even some people may think of the "X squirrels" that sell snacks. Of course, this is just a joke, the Han family squirrel is just very low-key, not without fame and qualifications. As long as it is a long time to like martial arts and a little old players are likely to have played the games it developed, the "Jin Yong Group Heroes X" that exploded ten years ago was developed and produced by the founder of Hanjia Squirrel using his spare time, and it is estimated that there are still many old players who retain this high degree of freedom independent game on their hard disks.
Of course, the author did not think about it at the beginning, and the person who associated it with "X squirrel" mentioned earlier was actually myself... After playing HIGH, I checked the development background and found that I had played its game ten years ago, and here I can only say that the big guys are really quite low-key.
This game won the Best Game Award at the 2020 INDIEPLAY AWARDE, and won the steam sales championship in January 2020 in the first month of the EA test, and the praise rate of all the reviews of historical paid purchase users has already exceeded 85%, which is really a domestic light with a strong reputation.
I thought it was a bronze, but I didn't expect it to be a king
The author has not been in contact with this work before, naturally did not participate in the previous EA test, coupled with the subjective Han family squirrel studio is not deeply impressed, so when searching for this work, I really thought that this is at best a 4399 kind of domestic casual game, at most it is a page game level. Look at the evaluation is good, and the sale price discount is only twenty pieces, absolutely can be regarded as economical, with a big deal white prostitute two hours, not fun on the refund mentality of the author paid and downloaded the work.
I didn't expect that after the start of this game, the author directly went up, burst the liver for more than 5 hours in one breath, it was really super magical, at first glance it seemed that there were a lot of shadows of other games, like a stitching monster (positive), but as long as it was played at the beginning, it would be fun to make people can't stop, especially after trying to use the player's workshop to hit the mod, completely addicted to it.
The desert is yellow and dusty, and the crowd is vying for supremacy over me as king
The story of this game takes place in the desert outside the Seychelles, and is about the collapse of the old dynasty's rule that has led to endless wars and chaos among many tribes, and there are even more terrible dark stories waiting for players to uncover behind this chaotic world.
Players can choose one of the protagonists of many different classes to start the game, and there are currently 8 protagonists to choose from in the official version, namely the male witch, the witch, the hyena, the wild soul, the sword hero, the barbarian, the holy spirit guard, and the lord. Some of the protagonists also have a unique exclusive plot, here to prevent spoilers will not be introduced much, the plot party or their own experience. To sum up, it is summed up in one sentence:
The desert is yellow and dusty, and the crowd is vying for me to be king!
Sandbox mode, my story is my master
There are two options for the game mode, one is the traditional story mode and the other is the fully open sandbox mode. The traditional plot mode naturally does not need to be introduced much, follow the task to run and finish, let you do what you do. The sandbox mode completely abandons the main plot, leaving the greatest freedom to the player, doing whatever he wants, and the player is completely up to decide. But what must be said here is that the sandbox mode is not suitable for novices to play as soon as they come up, because the difficulty will be much higher than the ordinary story mode, and without the main line guidance, the novice may not be completely clear about how they should improve and what to do. Therefore, it is still recommended that newcomers first brush up the plot mode of the week, so as to open the sandbox mode to compose their own unique desert epic.
The genres are rich and varied, and there is always one for you
Because of the existence of talent disks and skill trees, even the same class can produce many different genres of gameplay according to different ways of adding points, which can definitely be called rich and diverse. Is the combat power unmatched brainless reckless, or the edge OB obscene development is all based on the player's own personality, maybe the gameplay you try out is not the strongest, but it must be the most suitable for yourself.
In this game, there are also many things that players have to do, such as what brush level, brush equipment, inquire into news, train troops to attack the city strategically, run around or kill people and cross goods, etc., of course, the most important bubble NPC is indispensable, after all, the big wife of heaven and earth is the biggest isn't it. So how to play to play a new trick, it's all up to your own brain and hands, don't forget the player's workshop mod!
New to the road, need to pay attention
The game itself has a time setting, as the day and night change time passes, the combat effectiveness of npCs will also increase, if the player wanders blindly and wastes a lot of time, it is equivalent to a chronic suicide in disguise. Because the enemy is getting stronger and he is standing still, he will naturally not be able to defeat the enemy after a long time. In addition, in the early days, the number of teammates and the troops that can be led are limited, and wasting a lot of time will fall into a vicious circle, which requires special attention. Of course, the number of teammates and troops can be increased by adding talent points later, but this game uses a "star-style" talent disk, and players who are not used to hardcore games will feel brain pain at first glance, but the advantage is that the more brain-burning the game, the more resistant it is to play.
(Compared to X's talent disk, this is really quite simple...) ）
epilogue
As far as the author's personal play experience is concerned, the official version of "Tribe and Machete" is a very good open world role-playing game, after playing the mod and opening the sandbox mode, the game experience is multiplied, and the high degree of freedom of exploration and genre plus point play makes this game have great endurance, if the Han family squirrel can steadily update the new content in the back, it is no problem at all to become a hit. If you happen to be in front of the screen and don't know what to play, then don't miss this masterpiece, Tribe and Machete is waiting for you.
