In gaming circles, human-framed crashes have never been a new thing — like the recently popular Monster Hunter: Rise.
When the familiar cook changed from cat to woman named wormwood, the pale blue stars soon realized that something was wrong: just by throwing bamboo sticks, they could wear the balls in the air, and they could accurately nail the round-headed bamboo sticks to the wooden disc, and it would be difficult to wear the balls so perfectly without the accuracy and strength comparable to the Platinum Star.
Just when everyone is speculating about where this NPC called wormwood is sacred, a GIF awakens everyone's memory: from this magical shuriken, it is not difficult to see that wormwood is actually the young Madame Butterfly (mistaken).
Although the above reasoning and GIF are spoofed by sand sculpture netizens, but in the Fire Village of Wude, the strength of the wormwood sister can indeed not be underestimated: you know, in the Hundred Dragon Night, this is a fierce character who can use Gatling's "sudden" opposite, from this point of view, the legitimate Lady Butterfly may not be able to do this "young body".
But then again, in the games of that year, such "running on the wrong set" game characters were not uncommon.
"Love and Kill" fire bomb and Sakazaki Yuri
Speaking of SNK and Capcom, these two companies, in the era of arcade games can also be regarded as the old enemy, although SNK's King of Fighters and Samurai Shodown series has not been able to shake the status of Street Fighter in Japan, but it was also a shock in the year, so the two companies in the light and dark have some competitive meaning in it, and the product of these two companies "lifting the bar" is the fire in Street Fighter and Yuri Sakazaki in the King of Fighters.
Many veteran players now know that a large part of the reason why Capcom made such a weak spoof character as the Fire Trigger bomb is because SNK used the bronze statue of the ghost as a collection of Lukar in King of Fighters 94 - and in Lukar's backstory, the character he defeated will be made into a bronze statue collection.
Obviously, Capcom is not a vegetarian master, so they quickly made a "copycat version" of Robert to fight back: the iconic ponytail, and similar to the flying swallow whirlwind foot moves, are easy to remind people of the classic role in the Fist of the Dragon tiger, but Capcom just put a funny character and background story for him, making this character a famous funny character in the Street Fighter series, whether from the performance of the character, or from the mockery of SNK, it can be said that it is not enough damage. But it's insulting.
In response, SNK countered with Yuri Sakazaki, another female character in the Fist of the Dragon tiger: her killer skill not only pays tribute to Street Fighter's Sakura's iconic multi-segment than dragon, but also kills the ghost's instantaneous prison. Wanting to be a ghost can also be regarded as a ceiling-like existence in the street fighter worldview, but the housekeeping skills are easily learned by a little girl, which is much more humiliating than being made into a bronze statue.
The story of these two game companies falling in love and killing each other through game characters who "went to the wrong set" was once regarded by many players as a joke after dinner.
Then again, while Capcom and SNK have acted childishly like schoolchildren in their respective games, the relationship between the two companies is not bad, otherwise there would not have been the famous CVS and SVC series.
The fateful journey of "Toei Geralt"
If Fire Trigger and Yuri Sakazaki only collided with other games in terms of settings and moves, then in Renwang, it was a simple face bump.
At the beginning, when the ninja group under Glory said that it was going to make a new work, the first thing that came to most players' minds was the handsome face of Hayabusa - speaking of this role, it can also be regarded as the "famous actor" of the pants demon, from ninja dragon to death or life, to the peerless snake, this "elder of the society" can be said to have played the whole field.
However, when the ninja team officially announced their new game Renwang, which was released in 2017, everyone found that the male protagonist was another familiar figure: isn't this the famous female warlock piledriver, Quint master, demon hunter, Geralt? [Laughs]
What would it be like when "Toei Geralt" came to Japan during the Sengoku period? I believe that players who have played Renwang will have some experience: this Japanese yokai is really more ferocious than Europe, and when you face a high-IQ role like a vampire, there is still a chance to bargain with him; but yokai such as the Flying Edge Demon and the Raven Tengu are not unreasonable, and often before you react, you have already lost the picture, leaving a big "death" on the screen, as well as the familiar "one cut plum" BGM.
The same are demon hunters, but the situation between the two is so different, I have to sigh how important it is to find the right set. (Mistaken)
