Not long ago, Blizzard released world of Warcraft 10.0 related content for us. Among them, new races, new classes, and new maps have attracted a lot of attention, but there is one content that seems to be not highly discussed, that is, dragon taming.
In Blizzard's designers' mouths, the system is the product of their technological innovations, more like a whim. Many players also feel in their hearts - since there is already such a thing as a flying mount, why should we introduce dragon taming in particular? So is the Dragon Taming technique really that small and transparent? I'm afraid not.
First of all, give you a simple science popularization of what is called dragon taming.
As we all know, the full name of World of Warcraft 10.0 is "Age of Dragons". Players will come to the homeland of the dragon and soar through the sky with the legion of dragons. Dragon taming is a skill they can master and improve in the process of adventure, as their bond with their young dragons deepens.
This skill, after leveling up, allows your young dragon to lead you to sprint, accelerate, flip and move, allowing you to feel a more realistic flight experience. In addition, according to the official statement, they will also allow players to experience the effects of gravity on flight when using dragon taming. Perhaps with the change of your dragon's wings, gliding and other animated forms, your somatosensory speed in the game will also be different.
So, does dragon taming just make a difference in the flying experience?
Of course not, as long as Blizzard is willing, Blizzard can make a big fuss around it. For example, we know that there is a classic mission in TBC called "Top Gun". What makes this mission a classic is that it is extremely difficult to complete, and has tormented generations of players. Around dragon taming, Blizzard can also design similar missions to familiarize players with its related operations.
It's not enough to have exclusive missions, Blizzard may also design special scenarios where only your young dragons can enter with some special operations - such as a seal enchantment, which can only be broken when the dragon is flipping and sprinting. Or a narrower cave gap that can only be accurately entered when gliding.
The addition of these contents will bring more surprises to the game. You'll encounter some Easter eggs in the game that you've had difficulty encountering in the past because of dragon taming.
Finally, in addition to the dragon taming itself, Blizzard brings us the special feature of customizing the young dragon mount. You can use a variety of props to decorate the young dragon's nose, horns, tail, armor and other parts.
At the press conference, Blizzard also hinted that and changing these appearances requires some special props, I am afraid that the appearance party sees this sentence, and only the three words "liver vomiting" are left in the brain.
Speculation about dragon taming and the appearance of young dragons is difficult to confirm at this time. But as a separate unit at the press conference to illustrate the content, it is difficult not to suspect that there is another mystery behind these systems. I wonder if we can see Blizzard turn these predictions into reality after the Dragon Age is actually launched?
