It's a game that opens and doesn't want to close.
Uncle Monster has lost count of how long it has been without this feeling of being deeply attracted to a game.
In the impression, only when I first opened "World of Warcraft" from Kalimdor to the Eastern Kingdom, while watching the scenery while looking for rare babies, there was a subtle feeling of reluctance to turn off the game.
It's like you're really entering another world.
▌ Stop a player and torture
If I had to find a feature to summarize what appealed to me most about Eldon's Circle of Law, then I felt that only "freedom" was more appropriate.
Before that, I only stopped at a little bit of soul games.
However, when I learned that the Old Man Ring sold more than 5 million in its first week and still maintained more than 90% praise, I understood that the time had come to sell, otherwise I would most likely miss a good game.
We naturally don't need to say much about the suffering part of fighting monsters, after all, if you are determined to play the soul game, this is a process that must be experienced.
During the first hour of exploration, Uncle Monster subconsciously shouted out a lot of "dirty words" and repeatedly said that "Miyazaki Hidetaka has done all the bad things".
Just after the novice tutorial, followed by an oppressive "tree guard" dangling in front of your eyes, no matter the new and old players will generally choose to rush directly up;
Old players have the confidence to play, and new players may also have confidence.
The idea was good, but the ending was often unsatisfactory, and after three hours of torture, I was almost ready to give up the game.
however......
▌ This is my escape route!
The biggest difference between "Eldon's Ring of Law" and Miyazaki's previous soul games is the "open world".
Fight but right? It doesn't matter, I can "skip class"!
Any game with RPG elements can "accumulate thick and thin hair", level brush equipment, and not chill.
Uncle Monster, who chose the skipping route, first practiced to level 60 in the "Beast Temple" by chance, and then single-handedly "bad omen" to confirm that he had trained his skills, and then went back to the tree guard to avenge.
But this is just the beginning, the old man ring is not only a feast for soul fans or hardcore action players, it has many gameplay and elements for almost all players.
If you like to watch the scenery casually, then most of the monsters and bosses along the way you can ignore them, and directly run past them like a man like the wind;
If you like to collect special items or complete more unique achievements, the Old Man Ring has a large map above ground and three underground "small" maps, for a total of 42 achievements to explore.
