During the Spring Festival in 2005, Fantasy Journey to the West launched the "Beautiful Life" expansion pack. This expansion pack is actually one of the more suitable for the theme of the times, and the gamers of that era valued picture quality, fees and services, but most players did not have a long online time. Therefore, this material introduces a lot of cultivation gameplay that requires players to be online frequently. That is, the child system, the official system and the card system.
First, the advent of the era of the whole people raising children
The "child system" launched by "Beautiful Life" not only gives many players the opportunity to become parents, but also adds a strong "boost" to the tasks, quests, and PK gameplay - children. In that era, there was a soul-returning child who could only pull people, which was definitely the existence of the "king" level in the eyes of the player. At that time, the jade spirit fruit, peach, thousand character sutra and other props also made many players make a small profit.
There are 12 sects of children who were first introduced, and each sect has its own role, of which the children of metamorphosis and Putuo are the most popular. At the beginning of the game, due to the difficulty of regular tasks and quest tasks, the player's strength is insufficient, resulting in frequent situations of falling people. At this time, the appearance of Putuo children has changed this situation very well and has become the favorite of many players.
However, the early parenting system was very complicated, and many small partners did not know how to raise, but with the efforts of many god players, one after another parenting strategies were sent to the forum and the official website, opening the era of national parenting. Many players have listed the "hand-in-hand" level tutorials, as long as they receive something and follow the plan, they can easily cultivate an excellent child.
Such children can still be seen in the game until now, and their appearance not only allows players to spontaneously gather to discuss, but also saves teammates who have accidentally died many times. Sometimes, the old players who return to the stream will also find a way to complete one, after all, this has become their "game habit".
The new version of the child launched in the past two years, the child brocade, etc. is also based on this system, and has become the mainstream gameplay of the current players. Some players also rely on children with excellent attributes and earn a lot of extra money.
Second, the dream of joining the DPRK as an official
Another system for this expansion pack is the "official system." The official system has a fixed rank and a lot of money, and it has also attracted many small partners to join it. Moreover, the official tasks at that time were not much different from those of today, and were divided into civilian and military attaché tasks.
Civilian official tasks are also related to war, namely "spreading rumors, plotting against enemy generals, diligent administration and loving the people, patrolling the city, project preparations", etc. The reason why the snitch that you often see haunts all corners of Chang'an City is this task.
The military attaché's tasks are tasks related to the war, namely, "preparations are needed, grain and grass are escorted, soldiers are collected, the family is defended, and the enemy is investigated." The most impressive thing about the little friends may be the "collection of soldier books", before the earliest, the formation books saved by the darts in the major regions were all placed on the side of the palace without exception, which was also closely related to the official tasks.
This gameplay has not changed much since its launch, and it is also one of the favorite tasks of many returning old players.
Third, the "elder" of casual play
In addition to the nurturing and official system, Fantasy Journey to the West has also developed a "card game", which has also become a template for the development of leisure games in the future. For example, fishing, Qiankun disk, backgammon, three-realm killing, etc. all originate from this. To this day, Chang'an City still has the "card in the master, the card in the immortal, the card in the saint" because of the game setting. However, now they have become a "roadblock" in the eyes of achieving players.
brief summary
Overall, the Beautiful Life expansion pack belongs to the right era, increasing the player's online time expansion pack. After all, Fantasy Journey to the West is a paid game for online time, and if players can't be attracted through online time, its player base will certainly not have today's scale. Most of the tasks launched by this expansion pack are free for single players to complete, and the difficulty is not high, which also makes up for the situation that there is nothing to do without a team. Because, this is a truly "respect for the player" expansion pack.
