In July 1995, the DOS version of "The Legend of paladin Sword" was released, and a generation of legends came out. For more than twenty years, the Xianjian series has never faded out of the world's attention, whether it is this type of game, or an adapted TV series or a fan fiction work, every news about the Xianjian series will attract a trend of hot discussion on the Internet.
In the world where each player is immersed in Quint, immersed in the world of picking up garbage, it is difficult to travel back and forth, in the world of dark souls, or in the COD bathed in guns and guns, domestic players have not been and will not be indifferent to the world of immortal swords that have affected generations of people.
It is undeniable that the current open-world games are more and more exquisite and gorgeous, and the background involved is more and more grand and classic, but when we calm down to look at the country, use the world of the Immortal Sword to compare with these AAA masterpieces, we will be astonished to find that the setting of the World of the Immortal Sword is actually a real grand classic, but until today, whether it is the production content, the level of the production team or the game mechanism engine, it is difficult to compare with the European and American masterpieces, and the lament xiaobian will take you to recall the development process of the Immortal Sword again today.
The long rivers and lakes road, the love of the Immortal Sword is poignant and magnificent.
The entire single-player version of the Sword Game is divided into eight parts, let's take a look at the timetable.
Each of the Xianjian series has its own unique advantages and regrets, but each one to the player is a new experience, the game whether it is from the plot setting or screen production, or in the background music theme song of the exquisite carving, are the peak of the domestic game, the latest version of the Xian 7 has an eyebrow, Xiaobian here to do a good job of each Xianjian work to do a combing, nostalgia is the former youth, immortal is the past feelings, The topic of the Immortal Sword that accompanies players for twenty years is always an insurmountable peak in the hearts of domestic players.
<h1>1. The first generation of Paladin</h1> Legend
Even if you ask the player until now which xianjian single-player game is the pinnacle of the player's heart, xian 1 will occupy the first place. In the field of RPG at that time, the advent of Xian 1 was a milestone, and this work, whether it was the plot or the picture, was the peak of the times, shocking countless Chinese and foreign players, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the follow-up works are eating the old books of a generation.
The game is mainly about the genius teenager after inadvertently getting acquainted with Zhao Ling'er, the descendant of Nüwa, caused countless love-hate feuds, the characters portrayed by a generation are unforgettable, whether it is Li Xiaoyao, Zhao Ling'er, Lin Yueru or Anu, the shaping of each character can be described as flesh and blood, and the plot arrangement in this game is also widely circulated in later generations, and the TV series "The Legend of the Paladin Sword" filmed in 2005 is adapted from a generation. The twists and turns of the plot are wonderful, the character portrayal is delicate and exquisite, and the game operation is simple and interesting, which has a far-reaching impact. However, the time is too long, the screen game mechanism is constantly reforming, and now players generally can't play it.
<h1>2. The Legend of Paladin II Edition /Anniversary Edition</h1>
The background of Xian 2 is placed eight years after the plot of Xian 1, this work is a node of inheritance, the plot theme of Xian 1 is "fate", and the central theme of the second generation is "forgiveness", the male protagonist of the second generation is Wang Xiaohu, who is in the same village as Li Xiaoyao, and Li Yao's daughter Li Yiru, and the other two heroines, four people intertwine an intricate story.
Of course, there are also some generations of protagonists and brand new characters who will appear in the second generation, ready to make a complete account of the entanglement of feelings and grudges that have occurred and are about to occur in the two generations. Compared with the first generation launched some new game elements, but as an excessive game, Xian 2 also has its own shortcomings, too short plot, etc., and because the light of the generation is too large, so the reputation of the second generation is far inferior to the generation, it is also a pity, but the 2nd generation absolutely can not say that it is not fun, as a contemporary top 2D game, Xiaobian still recommends everyone to experience it well.
<h1>3. Pre-order edition/first edition/hardcover edition of Paladin III</h1>
This work is another milestone in the Immortal Sword series, set in a generation of fifty years ago, in that era, Li Sansi had just issued the first cry of a naked child, the witch queen was still a baby in swaddling, and the sword saint had not yet worshiped into the Shu Mountain Cultivation Immortal.
From the plot point of view, this work officially sets the world view of the five spirits and six realms for the Xianjian series, and makes a formal combing for the background of the Xianjian, such as why "Fengshen Yanyi" has such an important position in the history of Chinese literature, because he has established a formal mythological system for our country, and Xian 3 is also such a position in the plot. Coupled with abundant production time, the team's meticulous craftsmanship, and the superior environment inside and outside (there are really not so many trolls to tell the truth), we finally presented us with a classic atmosphere of the god work.
The plot of Xian 3 can be said to be imposing, delicate and full, the details of each plot and the portrayal of characters have reached exquisite effects, the main line of tasks spans the five realms of immortals, ghosts and demons, and the game process is not only to let players participate in the plot but also to give players a very strong sense of substitution, the new system mechanism is manifested in real-time favorability settings, open endings, etc., the five endings are all exquisite. The three-dimensional sense of the characters in the plot is strong, the story narrative is clear and emotional ups and downs, the story of the third life of Zi Xuan and Changqing, the ups and downs of the Shushan Sect, the love affair between Chonglou and Jingtian and Zi Xuan, the turmoil of Tangjiabao and the snow in the story of Shenshu Xiyao, the inner entanglement of Long Kui's millennium waiting and the red and blue double sunflower after the split, plus countless moving branches, and the most valuable thing is that it is so delicate, with many twists and turns, and the complex plot direction of the characters, the characters' lines and behaviors are not pretentious, which is really amazing.
The game's combat system is also very classic, turn-based combat, diverse abilities and battle combinations, various artifact settings, treasure hunting system, magic sword cultivation, amazing labyrinth links, in addition to the plot can also fly the sword to travel the world.
Gorgeous to the extreme soundtrack, the soundtrack of Xian 3 is simply the fullest use of the words psychic and xianqi, especially Dong Zhen's voice makes even people who have not played Xian 3 linger. A game that achieves this level, no matter how much praise it receives, cannot be overstated.
<h1>4. "The Legend of the Paladin Sword and The Tale of the Three Outsiders: Asking For Love"</h1>
The desperate maze system is the biggest slot point in Sword 3 Gaiden. The tone set by Sword 3 is to ask for affection, and the whole game is also centered on these two words, and this work is also a summary of the previous works, but also a memory.
The background of the game and Xian 3 in the same period, there is comparable to the Xian 3 screen production and plot portrayal, the game mainly tells the protagonist Nangong Huang's background mystery, which leads to a nineteen-year-long love-hate entanglement. The portrayal of several protagonists is also flesh and blood. The game settings are richer in the settings of the demon world and the lock demon tower, and are connected with a generation. The battle system has added the special system of the five spirit wheels and transformations, which greatly reduces the difficulty of fighting, speeds up the speed of spawning, and the weapon performance characteristics of the characters are more obvious. But the depth of the combat system has not increased much. The content and scene are a little too biased on the maze, which is also the opening of the editor, the maze is indeed a little unfriendly to some players, but the branch lines set in the maze are very exciting.
Similarly, this work also has a very classic theme song, still that kind of fairy breath reverberating feeling, the theme song of the immortal sword is really good, Dong Zhen's voice is born with the immortal sword.
The classic theme song of the Xianjian series of works counted in this issue (there are too many works of the same name, only the theme song is listed):
"Butterfly Love", "There is your paradise" - Xu Ruyun, "Yu Qing Dream", "Royal Sword Jianghu", "Swinging Sword to Ask For Love", "Immortal Sword Greeting" - Xiao Renfeng
This issue of "Tribute to the Classic, the Legend of the Immortal Sword in the Game (Part 1)" ends here, the next small editor will comb the remaining Immortal Sword series single-player game content, welcome to discuss ~
