"The Legend of Jin Yongqun" is an eternal classic game work in the Chinese-speaking circle, and it will not become obsolete at any time.
Since the "Legend of Jin Yong Qunxia" is all there, then gulong, which is equally famous with Jin Yong and has a large number of works, does not have any games such as the legend of jin yong?
You don't have to say that there was really a single-player game work called "The Legend of the Ancient Dragon Heroes" that year, and it was also a short fire for a while. There are only many people who have played "The Legend of Jin Yongqun", and there are probably few who know "The Legend of the Ancient Dragon Group".
So what kind of game is this little-known "Legend of the Ancient Dragon Group"?
"The Legend of the Ancient Dragon Group" is a martial arts adventure single-player game produced in 2000 by a software company named Jin Zhita in Shenzhen at that time.
Speaking of the three words of Jin Zhita, the players of that year may still have some impressions, in addition to "The Legend of the Ancient Dragon Heroes", it has also produced "Fantasy Journey to the West", "Special Forces 1937", "Three Kingdoms Heroes Invincible" and other game works.
Judging from the names of these works alone, it is quite a bit of a "stitching monster", is it true that "The Legend of the Ancient Dragon Group" is also a game of drawing scoops according to the gourd?
At that time, there were not a few players who held this idea, but when it came out, everyone found that "The Legend of the Ancient Dragon Group" and "The Legend of the Jin Yong Group" are basically two games with completely different styles.
"Legend of the Ancient Dragons" adopted the more mainstream turn-based mode at that time, and the game perspective was a combination of 2D and 3D. In short, the non-combat scenes are similar to Diablo, and the battle scenes use a 45-degree 3D perspective.
This kind of alternative game perspective conversion was relatively rare at the time, and the impression was that "Heroes 3" also had a similar perspective setting.
The plot of "The Legend of Jin Yongqun" is mainly based on the content of fourteen novels, so what novels does "The Legend of the Ancient Dragon Heroes" mainly cover?
According to incomplete statistics, there are a total of more than a dozen ancient dragon works in the game, such as "The History of Wulin", "The Ruthless Sword of the Amorous Swordsman", "Chu Liuxiang", "Famous Sword Flow", "Lu Xiaofeng", "Absolute Double Glory", etc., but all the classic characters and bridge sections of the ancient dragon novel you can think of appear in the game.
It is not a simple thing to want to string together such a huge and complex content. We all know that "The Legend of Jin Yongqun" adopts a network narrative, that is, the content of fourteen novels is unfolded at the same time, interlaced with each other, forming an intricate story network.
Although "Legend of the Ancient Dragon Group" also has a large map mode and uses a tree branch-like narrative method, it has an independent and complete story line. The appearance of characters and bridges in the original novel will not affect the basic direction of the main story.
However, it is a pity that characters like Li Xunhuan, Ximen Chuixue, Shen Lang, and Lu Xiaofeng in the original can only appear as plot NPCs, and cannot join the protagonist team like "The Legend of Jin Yongqun".
There are many teammates to choose from in "The Legend of the Ancient Dragon Group", except for Ah Fei, most of them are original characters of the game, and even the protagonist Shen Guyun himself is a fictional character.
There is also a certain reason for this, if Li Xunhuan, Ximen Chuixue, Shen Lang and so many bullish characters have joined your team, then the villain will also play a yarn.
Fortunately, the original characters and character dialogue maintain the charm of Gu Long's novel and do not make people feel like drama. The original characters also perform their functions, appearing in specific plots, providing players with a variety of missions and cheats.
Battle the Forbidden Peak
Now you may be wondering, what kind of main quest can connect so many original characters and bridges, can it also collect fourteen heavenly books like "The Legend of Jin Yongqun"?
The degree of freedom of "The Legend of the Ancient Dragon Group" is not as high as that of "The Legend of jin Yong Qunxia", its main plot revolves around the conspiracy of a "Sand Man Zhuang", and the male protagonist who has just come out of the jianghu is deeply involved in this conspiracy whirlpool, and finally confronts the powerful force of the Qinglong Gang.
In this process, the male protagonist will encounter Various characters in Gulong novels such as Chu Liuxiang, Wang Pihua, Lu Xiaofeng, etc., some of whom directly participate in the main plot, and some appear in various horns, brush their sense of existence, and then quickly disappear.
This fragmented narrative that wanders outside the main plot is more similar to the later Zhiguan version of "Tianlong Babu".
The ending of the game "Legend of the Ancient Dragons" can be roughly divided into a righteous ending, an evil ending and a neutral ending. These endings are closely related to the heroine's favorability and the completion of the hidden plot.
However, the biggest attraction of this game is not only the plot, but its combat system. The game characters have a total of six attributes: strength, consciousness, qualifications, roots, body technique, and insight.
These attributes affect not only battle bonuses, but also scene interactions. For example, if you have high insight ability, you can see hidden treasure chests. Each additional stat consumes potential points. These potentials are gained through combat.
There are many schemes for allocating points, the only common denominator is the priority addition method. Because you often encounter some random enemies, if you are high, you can prevent your hands from being seconds.
There are many martial arts cheats in the game, you need to meet specific requirements for cultivation, the level of martial arts skills can be improved, the higher the level, the higher the damage, and the amount of blue consumption will also increase.
However, most of the martial arts here are relatively chicken ribs, only a few martial arts such as Ximen Chuixue's "Falling Flowers Blowing Snow" and "Sword God a Smile" are still passable, which is more similar to "The Legend of Jin Yongqun".
In terms of teammates, the game has a total of sixteen characters to join, the conditions for joining the team are mainly related to favorability, and at most two people can fight, how to cultivate does not matter, after all, the male protagonist is our first combat force.
Seeing these contents, perhaps you have a general impression of the game "Legend of the Ancient Dragons".
When this game was launched in 2000, it caused quite a stir at the time, and with the pearl jade of "The Legend of Jin Yongqun", everyone also had great expectations for "The Legend of the Ancient Dragon Group".
Unfortunately, although the production team invested a lot of money in this game, it did not receive much applause, and the noise soon disappeared from the player's vision like a flash in the pan.
I think the reason why it has not reached the same height as its predecessors is largely because there are too many bugs in the game itself.
This kind of BUG is mainly reflected in the battle value, such as the player in the case of residual blood to take out the big supplement pill, click on the item menu and then use, their own health and inside will become infinite, which is the famous "big supplement pill BUG".
Of course, in addition to these bugs, it is also very difficult to pass the level, because most players will be stuck in the gossip puzzle. At that time, there were no raiders and modifiers, and few people around me understood gossip, so they stuck here and could not continue.
Looking at the game "The Legend of the Ancient Dragon Group", both in terms of graphics and music at the time, it was second to none, and it was an excellent work.
It's just that because the game company started relatively late, it still lacks some experience in game production than old factories such as Daewoo and Zhiguan, which is really a pity.
