In the past few years, the most popular live-action interactive film and television works are "Invisible Guardians", the theme of the high-quality plot is reasonable, the arrangement of multiple routes and multiple endings, are all important factors in the success of this game, and the price is also very cheap after the Steam discount. Although there are also small shortcomings of "putting ppt", the overall quality is still very good, and it is a new type of game with more characteristics in recent years.
However, today's talk is not "Invisible Guardian", but a new game of the same type, "Shendu Bad Detective", which was developed by Yunyun Technology and co-released with iQiyi Games. This game adaptation of the novel original "Luoyang", the novel also has a film and television version of "Wind Rise Luoyang", because I have not seen the drama version here is not much evaluation, in terms of the current experience is actually a decent work, and then from the plot to the system with everyone to understand in detail.
The background of the story of "Shendu Bad Detective": In the nine years of Changsheng, the "Spring and Autumn Road" managed by Daozun and the "Lianfang" established by the court continued to struggle, and the two sides launched various contests in the shendu Luoyang, gradually spreading the dispute to the bad well, an extralegal place in Luoyang City... And the player is Du Xun, an antique shop owner in this bad well, and you will start a thrilling and comedic detective journey from the bad well!
Because the game itself is a live-action interactive class, the full video shooting method of the film and television drama also makes the game closer to the drama, and the characters also have many small actions to express their thinking when the player thinks about the options, the look and feel is very good, and the plot content is also very attractive. Because the background is an overhead fictional theme, the sense of substitution for the player is not as strong as that of "The Invisible Guardian", because the length of the character is also slightly insufficient, such as XiaoLing, from beginning to end has no impact on the plot, and the characters themselves have no characteristics. However, these can be made up by subsequent updates.
But with the progress of the advancement, the problem of live-action interactive film and television also comes, the game is always a game, with a tough approach to the linear film and television drama into a game or has certain limitations, the game in the most important options almost do not do more arrangements, first of all is the most important plot branch, in addition to the correct answer to the main line, the rest of the answers are a dead end, there is no so-called branch plot. Of course, from the perspective of endings, there may be a second part or a new DLC, and it is not impossible for branch endings to appear in these places.
The location shift on the plot should be to get a more grand background and fill the richness of the content, and in "Shendu Bad Detective", in fact, it is still not too felt, and the transfer of bad wells to Luoyang is more like from a bad well to another bad well, which may be limited by the limited activity scene of the game screen, although it involves a larger conspiracy behind it, but it still fails to see the difference. The way of handling here is that you can personally add branch lines to expand the content, and it is easier to highlight the difference between Luoyang and bad wells.
Back to the system gameplay itself, the multiple choice question is naturally one of the indispensable gameplay of the live-action interactive class, which is nothing to say, the main gameplay part is still in the process of handling the case. If you have played the reverse referee series, you will be very familiar with this system, in a limited scene, you can click on the item to view the information you need, the upper right corner also has a reminder of the number of relevant clues, once you get enough clues, you can start the follow-up plot, and the process of finding is not too difficult, so that all players can enjoy fun, but it is said that there are many hidden clues, but the impact on the plot is not large.
After getting enough information, we can connect the clues we find and deduce the correct answer. In the game, this system of connecting clues is called sichen (cun), which can find key words from each clue, step by step divergent thinking to another clue to form a closed loop, although it is a bit of the visual sense of the "Destiny Of Heaven" to fight the clues, but it still has to be said to be quite interesting. After all, think about "Invisible Guardian", although there are multiple branches and multiple endings, but there is only a multiple choice question, and the experience process is not very interesting.
Speaking of "Divine Bad Detective" there is also a very strange QTE gameplay, although it is just a simple click, but always come very unexpectedly, and the design is not particularly meaningful, the performance part is slightly awkward, I don't know if there are friends who have the same feeling as the old youtiao.
If there are no spoilers, there are probably so many things that can be said, and the old youtiao feels that in fact, the linear plot of "God Is Bad Detective" is really a great drawback. First of all, this type of game is not the main position of PC players, and if there are enough branch endings, it is worth the player to pay for a purchase. But the whole plot has only one line, forbidden the anchor to promote the audience is even less, if not prohibited, presumably most players will choose the cloud to save money, which is too unfavorable for a game that needs to make a profit.
Of course, if you are interested, you can also buy a copy to try to play, but the old travel article feels that you can wait for the discount to buy, not urgent. What do the friends who have played have on "Bad Detective"? Welcome to share.
