Three generations of transplants are also coming soon
After the launch of "Thunderbolt 4 Micardo Mixed Version" developed by MOSS and released by NIS America in February this year, they naturally also understood the truth of striking while the iron was hot, and after more than half a year, they teamed up again to bring fans a 3-generation Micardo mix version. I think everyone must be more looking forward to the transplantation of the 3rd generation - back then, we actually didn't know how many generations were the generations, on the one hand, we really didn't understand or pay attention to this kind of detail, just simply enjoyed the fun of playing airplanes, on the other hand, the composition of Raiden itself is also relatively complex, in addition to the main series There are various derivatives, and there is no concept at all without taking time to brush it up.
However, one thing that can be confirmed is that it must be more familiar with the previous works, such as the rail tank boss in the first level of the 1st generation, and the four-legged climbing boss in the first level of the 2nd generation (?). ), are quite unforgettable, really no matter how many times you experience it. In my own words, I also have a deeper impression of the 3rd generation than the 4th generation, and I have a familiar feeling for many levels, and this time I just took the opportunity to remember it well. Experience everything feels very good, except that the bullet color is a little unaccustomed, well, I am too deeply affected by the 2nd generation and always think that the laser bullet should be pink to taste, I always feel strange when I see green, of course, this can not be regarded as a problem, a little adaptation is OK.
The transplant form is the same as for four generations
In terms of porting form, there is no difference between the 3rd and 4th generations, and the main selling point is still the so-called "MIKADO MANIAX", that is, BGM is replaced by the Mikado mixing version, and it is quite sensual with some modern charm.
In addition, the better adaptation of modern PC systems is another highlight, without finding the program to check what compatibility mode can run directly, anyway, my own WIN11 runs without any problems, the menu interface is good, the actual game, are still very silky. In addition, the production team also redrew the title interface and menu interface, such as the font in the menu and everything has been adjusted, while retaining the sense of nostalgia but also more in line with the modern aesthetic, not to mention the old players, new students can probably ignite interest in the work.
Of course, since you have landed on Steam, then Steam cards and achievements must also be supported. In particular, there are as many as 44 Steam achievements, in addition to some standard level-through achievements, there are also some one-life challenges and other very difficult difficulties, which I think should greatly enhance the player's desire to play repeatedly. Well, salted fish like me still don't think about it first, to be honest, it's very good to be able to clear the level smoothly after I am old, I always feel that my hands can't keep up with my brain, and the difficulty of NORMAL is a little strenuous, and it's completely no longer the courage of the year.
Easy to get started, but hard to master
When it comes to the difficulty of getting started, the shooting game is basically the friendliest gear in all games, in the final analysis, it is aimed and hit and it is over, on this basis it is better not to be hit by the enemy. Of course, the clear shooting game of Raiden also largely follows such rules, but because it was born relatively early, the player-friendliness will be lower, and the accuracy of dodging is more demanding.
Since this work does not support Chinese, in fact, there is no need to Chinese it, but the specific keys still have to be mentioned a little, so as not to save everyone's face to roll the keyboard troubles - the keypad controls the movement of the body up and down, left and right, and the Z key is to launch bullets, X key is to clear the screen attack, well, we called this "insurance" when we were children, and it is still very good to clear the screen with one key when it is inevitable.
It's just that the number of times it can be used is limited, so it is still necessary to use the steel on the blade and use it as a last resort. Of course, there will be supplies in the process, but it is still quite difficult to count on this to save the emergency. And if you want to go further, show the strength of a master-like STG (?) ), then you still have to rely on the almighty back version of the Dafa, after all, the location of the enemy is fixed, which means that the timing of our dodge is also fixed, so basically all rely on muscle memory.
Modes are diverse, and collections come with them
I think when you play "Raiden 3 Micardo Mixed Version", the most common choice must be the first "GAME START", which is the most classic level-based mode, there are 7 levels that you need to challenge in turn, and you can't stop one level after another. Of course, if the game is over, you can only start from scratch, and there are no modern features such as progress saving and level selection. The experience is very traditional arcade feeling, well, but you can't use local tyrant gameplay to unlimited coins.
Of course, now we are not as persistent as in the past, and we don't care too much about playing a few levels and whether we can clear it, so let's start over, well, so lower expectations but the fun will be much more interesting, in a sense, this is a return to the essence of the game. In addition, this game also provides a SCORE ATTACK mode for free challenge levels, in addition to local multiplayer mode, BOSS RUSH mode and so on. Of course, SCORE ATTACK is definitely based on existing unlocked levels, which means that you need to clear the standard mode before you can play them all, not to mention BOSS RUSH, which is definitely not a choice at first.
At the same time, as you continue to play, you can also unlock BGMs, wallpapers, etc., although it is not important, but it is a small reward on the way to achieve the goal, and it can still provide repeat play motivation.
It's worth buying for nostalgia
Overall, "Raiden 3 Micardo Mix Version" is still more in line with expectations. Some places that should be modernized, such as the interface and the unlocking mechanism, have been modernized, and places that must be traditional, such as gameplay, have also been well implemented, and it is enough to do so. The good times spent in front of the CRT monitor in childhood seem to be in front of you, and it is still good to play for a while in your free time or when you go to work to fish. I also expect MOSS and NIS America not to stop here, the most classic 2nd generation and 1st generation can also be arranged, especially the 2nd generation I still want to play, when I was a child, I actually didn't have the opportunity to play from beginning to end.
Regarding the price, this game is exactly the same as the previous game. Some students may think that the pricing of the national district is a little expensive, but I want to say that the national district is actually one of the lowest districts, and I personally think it is quite worth it. Even if you buy it with the mixing OST, there will be an additional 5% discount, well, OST is priced at 22 yuan, a total of 36 songs, on average, a song is 0.6 yuan is really okay, change to the Japanese factory to estimate to add a zero, is so outrageous that people have no idea at all. In addition, there are 3rd and 4th generation ultimate bundles, and the additional discount has been further increased to 10%, and students who want to do it in one step can also choose this.
Overall rating: 7.5/10
