Chapter 37 Give up
Xiaozhi, who is seventeen years old this year, has many identities. He is the son of his father and the son of his mother, a student of the school and a student of the teacher. He is also a player and a player who loves games.
He was born in a peasant family.
Farmers sound like they don’t have much money, but they are not exactly like this.
People with land will not be poor in all dynasties.
What's more, in a country like Japan that has strict agricultural trade protection against agriculture.
Xiaozhi, who has a large area at home, naturally has no shortage of money to play electronic games.
The price of a game console is very cheap for him. The watermelon produced on a watermelon vine is more valuable than a game console.
Therefore, he has always dominated the entire machine.
When others were still blushing about whether it was Nintendo's n64, Sony's ps1, or Sega's Saturn, he had long since sent out his three consoles in front of them as if he was placing big money.
For those guys who are competing for the upstream of the contempt chain, he only has one word to describe, which is - poverty!
However, even if the family can grow a lot of watermelons, Xiaozhi has developed a good temper after this generation began.
It’s not that he has good cultivation, but that since Saturn and Ps1 used CDs as storage medium, the time to read the disks is simply despairing.
When she first got the machine, Xiaozhi thought her machine was broken.
But now he is used to it.
Put the "Shenmu" I just bought into the optical drive and cover it with a lid. Xiaozhi picked up the "Weekly Boy Jump" I just bought and started reading it.
"Hey, why is "Full Time Hunter" closed again? Then it's better to read One Piece's man..." Xiaozhi picked up the comics on "Weekly Boy Jump".
He doesn't know how others read comic magazines. Anyway, he always picks and reads comic magazines.
After all, there are new comics in each issue, and there are comics that are finished in half every issue. Even those comics that can be serialized normally may not be in line with his taste.
It’s not like those poor guys who can save a week’s pocket money to buy a comic. When reading a comic, I wish I could continue reading it even if it was a luoxiang, otherwise I would lose money.
Xiaozhi thinks his time is very valuable!
Thinking that his time was very valuable, Xiaozhi looked up at Sega Saturn, who was "sizzling" and was ringing.
He didn't like Sega Saturn's machine very much, but because he had been reading the disk for too long.
No matter how fun the game is, the disk reading time is as easy as three or two minutes, and the worst is as good as one or twenty minutes. This is a disappointment!
It's like a bunch of young men and women. The boy is already anxious to do something, but the girl is delaying for dozens of minutes. After that interest, she will naturally become exhausted.
If you want to maintain a continuous and vigorous mentality, you must motivate your emotions when you need to motivate them.
After waiting for fifteen minutes, the noise-filled optical drive finally read out the data from the disc.
Looking at the title of "Shenmu", Xiaozhi's heart was not fluctuating.
He tried to motivate his excitement, after all, Sega's propaganda said it was the ultimate video game.
But perhaps it was because he had been reading the disk for too long, so he was still a little unhappy.
Pick up the controller and enter the game, first there is an animation at the beginning.
The animation level is very good, almost keeping up with the Hollywood blockbusters in cinemas. This makes Ash focus a little more.
The game officially begins.
This is a story of the protagonist constantly exploring on a brand new road.
Xiaozhi started his adventure, and there were enough interactive elements in the novice village.
Whether it’s fishing, your milk, or picking up eggs, it makes people feel very novel.
In the past, these very detailed life-like content were rare in such role-playing games. However, games like "The Story of the Ranch" seem to be missing a little.
If you accidentally, these mini-games took Xiaozhi several hours.
When he came back to his senses and walked out of the novice village, intending to take risks in a larger world, he encountered a problem that made him feel embarrassed.
He should have found a computer character to have a conversation, but it was dark and the computer character went home to sleep.
The computer character went home to sleep. Xiaozhi couldn't find someone and could not submit the task, so he needed to stand here and wait for the computer character to get up.
He looked at the moon hanging high in the sky, and suddenly, the unparalleled day and night system was useless.
Finally, the computer character came out, and the computer character gave him another task, which was to catch fireflies.
But now it has just entered the daytime, and it will take thirty minutes to wait until the dark day.
Oh my God!
Kill me!
In a fit of anger, Xiaozhi put down his handle and continued to read the comics.
I don’t know how many days and nights have passed.
Xiaozhi picked up the handle again. It happened to be night. After catching the fireflies, he received a new task.
During the process of this game, he discovered a problem.
It is just that "Shenmu" is not as free and open as advertised.
Whether it is fishing, milking, or catching fireflies, it is not really done this, but instead uses mini-games as a substitute.
To put it bluntly, "Shenmu" is a collection of small games.
In addition to playing mini-games, it also makes people feel a little crisis and a little exciting. Most of the time, "Shenmu" has a very warm rhythm.
It makes people feel uncomfortable, and it feels like I am waiting to read a comic that has little meaning when I am reading a disk.
Although when playing, there are tasks after tasks that force you to complete and force you to continue playing.
But once you let it go, you will feel that you lack a reason to pick up the game again.
Even the free game of publicity is to slap your own face in front of each task.
Where is freedom?
It just provides a large map for players to run around.
Thinking of this, Ash took out the CD of "Shenmu" from Saturn's optical drive, put it back into the box, and placed it on a shelf that specially installed the game.
The games above are either games he has played or games he never wants to play again. He will not put them on the shelf.
In other words, he will no longer play the game "Shenmu".
At the same time, countless players like Ash are playing the game "Shenmu".
