When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay.

Chapter 542: Changes in Fantasy Continent

The general plot dialogues of the game are done using common real-time rendering. The two character models talk face to face, and make corresponding actions and expressions from time to time to match the dialogue.

At the current common level in the industry, this practice has become a common practice. Whether it is a 3A-level stand-alone masterpiece or a higher-level online game, this practice is generally adopted.

However, the work produced by Against the Heaven's Glory obviously has more details, richer movements, more natural camera movements, and gives people a better viewing experience.

In addition, the text content of the game is also fully dubbed, and it sounds like it was dubbed by first-line voice actors. Although it is not particularly amazing, it is not awkward, which is already considered top-notch in the country.

Of course, as a wealthy company, it is normal for Against Heaven to do a good job in dubbing, and it is not worthy of praise.

However, what surprised Zhuge Jun was that it seemed that this game had dubbing not only for the main line and important plots, but also for the side quests and various less important dialogues!

However, these dubbings are not directly read out by voice actors, but dubbed by AI.

In fact, the current AI dubbing technology is already very mature. As long as the dubbing actor recites a large amount of text with emotion, the system can deeply learn his speaking habits. Compared with the original emotionless reading, it has made long-term progress.

Some AI dubbing can even accurately imitate the unique voice and quirks of the voice actors.

This technology was first used for short videos and was later gradually extended to long videos and audio novels. In short, the progress is quite fast.

Even in some videos, it is difficult for players to tell whether it is AI dubbing or not.

Of course, no matter how similar it is, there is still a gap between it and the real dubbing.

Because professional voice actors will add some emotions when performing different lines, and although AI can barely imitate these emotions, you can still distinguish them if you listen carefully.

According to the current common practice in the industry, if the game has a large amount of text, then only the main storyline will be provided, and no side stories will be provided.

Against the Heaven's Path is one step closer, which is also worthy of praise.

On the one hand, it saves dubbing costs, because after a dubbing actor collects the audio, it can be reused no matter how many plots are released later, and there is no need to dub again; on the other hand, it also saves the space cost of the game. A large number of dubbing files will take up a lot of space, but AI dubbing does not have this problem at all.

Depending on the size of the game, the cost savings can even be more than a dozen GB.

As for the plot at the beginning, there is nothing special about it and it is completely in line with expectations.

"Endless Fantasy Tales 2" can be seen as a story that takes place hundreds of years after the previous game. After peace is restored in the Fantasy Continent, generations of brave warriors guard this place.

When the heroes, that is, the characters controlled by the players, arrived in this area, strange changes occurred in the world, and the original seal loosened. Not only that, the fog that originally permeated around the continent also dissipated.

A vaster land appeared in everyone's sight.

Xiyun, a little loli with a ball-like head and earth attribute, is an adventurer from the neighboring Earth Kingdom. After seeing the fog disappear, she came over curiously to explore. She encountered danger on the way and was rescued by the player.

Through the mouth of this little Lolita, the game also gives players a preliminary explanation of the current map structure.

A large map is presented to the players. This map does not yet show the specific details of each area, but it already has a rough outline, and there are images on it that represent the elemental attributes and general characteristics of the area.

The original continent of "Endless Fantasy Tales 1" is basically located in the east of the entire world and is a country with wood attributes.

However, a large part of it also borders the outside world. For example, a large area in the west originally belonged to the Kingdom of Earth, which is the westernmost plain in the original map; and the original volcano in the southwest belonged to the Kingdom of Fire.

These areas originally existed on the map of the previous game, but like the main part of the Kingdom of Wood, they were blocked by fog.

Each area has different elements and territories. The entire map looks intricate and is more than four or five times larger than the previous game.

The next plot is that the brave man takes the little loli to the forest to find the great sage to decide the next course of action.

The capital of the Kingdom of Wood is naturally the royal city of the previous "Endless Fantasy Tales 1", but the eastern area of ​​the kingdom has undergone tremendous changes at this time.

The scouts who went to investigate reported that the original rainforest area in the east had undergone strange changes. The trees suddenly began to grow wildly, blocking out the sun. Many elves that originally lived in seclusion in the mountains also began to appear and attack passers-by nearby.

Not only that, as the fog disappeared, a large number of demon armies from the Fire Nation seemed to be gathering and preparing to move in the volcanic area in the southwest, and a war could break out at any time.

In comparison, although the elves in the rainforest are also worrying, after all, they have no plans to leave the forest, and the Fire Nation is the imminent threat.

In addition, Xiyun also conveyed to the great sage the crisis that the Earth Kingdom was facing at the time: the originally powerful Earth Kingdom Daliang was also in civil strife at this time, the flesh and blood monsters and evil spirits caused by the Black Tai Sui were rampant, the young emperor was bewitched by the Xunxiang Cult, and the people were living in misery.

Xiyun came to the Kingdom of Wood in the hope of finding help to see if he could save Daliang from the disaster.

In this way, the main missions of at least three countries are clearly laid out before the players.

The first and most urgent thing is to go to the volcanic area and enter the territory of the Fire Kingdom to resist the invasion of volcanic demons.

Secondly, keep an eye on the changes in the forest of the Kingdom of Wood; if you have the energy to spare, go to the Kingdom of Earth to quell the civil strife and the blood plague. Of course, other areas must also have their own main quests. As the protagonist of the game, the hero must go through the entire map.

However, Zhuge Jun is sure that these contents should be opened in sequence.

Since this is a beta version now, the most we can do is go to the Fire Nation to fight, and that's about it.

Just like that, the game quickly entered a free-activity state, and the brave man and Xiyun set out on a journey to the volcanic area.

About ten minutes later, Zhuge Jun arrived at the main target area specified in the mission.

During this process, he also experienced some of the gameplay of the big world, such as solving puzzles on the road, treasure chests guarded by monsters, ingredients everywhere, iron pots for cooking on the roadside, etc. These are all the gameplay of the big world in "Endless Fantasy Legend 1", so it is not difficult to get started.

During these ten minutes, players can choose to play around in the big world first, or they can choose to go straight to the main storyline.

For Zhuge Jun, these gameplays of the big world themselves do not have much appeal. After all, he has already experienced them in the previous game. For this game, he should go through the main line first, open various teleportation points after completing the main line, and then slowly explore the big world.

However, for players who have not played "Endless Fantasy Legend 1" before, this process is also a process of familiarizing themselves with the gameplay of the big world.

Sure enough, before they reached the border of the Fire Nation, they had already encountered the invading enemy.

Demons and elemental creatures burning with blazing flames have begun to invade the villages at the border of the Wood Kingdom and the volcano in twos and threes.

This is when the real battle begins.

Because the previous battles were only of a teaching nature, and the monsters they fought were monsters with no attributes or wood attributes, there was no difficulty at all.

The enemy encountered at this time was covered in flames and looked difficult to deal with.

"Come on, I hope the battles in the main storyline can be a little more difficult for me!"

Zhuge Jun rushed forward with full confidence.

Although this game itself can be considered a mobile game, many players who come for the "Ascension" IP still hope that the combat and operation difficulties will be higher.

That’s more challenging.

Five seconds later, Zhuge Jun's screen went black and he returned to the resurrection point.

"ah??
"what's the situation."

Zhuge Jun was a little confused. He only remembered that he had rushed over confidently and fought with this big guy who was covered in flames.

This big guy didn't look like a demon, but just a human who could utilize the power of fire element, so Zhuge Jun didn't take him too seriously. When he saw the other party raise his hand, he didn't dodge immediately.

After all, it shouldn't be a big problem if you just carry it for a while.

He first released the hero's small skill, hanging a circle of wood elements around himself, and the grass and trees grew lushly.

Then, the big guy hammered him with his flaming fist.

"combustion!"

The flame instantly ignited the wood element, and a huge fireball burst out that wrapped the hero in it, causing his entire body to be engulfed in flames. Not only did he become stiff, but he was also afflicted with a flame dot, and his health dropped rapidly.

Zhuge Jun was stunned. He quickly tapped the sprint button to dodge, wanting to get out of the range of the flames and see if he could put out the fire by doing so.

But the next second, the big guy followed up and punched him again.

The hero's health is already like a candle in the wind.

However, these two injuries and the energy accumulated before were enough for him to launch a big move.

Zhuge Jun didn't think too much about it. Based on the principle of "point where there is light", he immediately used his ultimate move to counterattack.

However, the next second, a huge fireball hit the big guy, but only his health bar dropped a little.

resistance!

The next second, the brave man who was running away with his head in his hands was burned to death by the fire dots on his body and returned to the resurrection point.
