When I write a bug it becomes the core gameplay.

Chapter 564 Li Huanzhen and Zhao Siyuan

At night, in Zhuge Jun and Hou Ji’s dormitory.

"Hey! Why are there three new tasks? I can't stand it anymore!"

Hou Ji was about to break down, and he was going crazy looking at the three new side quests that popped up.

It was already 10:55, and it was almost time to turn off the lights at night.

Hou Ji's original plan was to finish this task just before the lights were turned off at 11 o'clock, and then he could go to bed soundly. Today would be another perfect day.

But unexpectedly, these three new tasks ruthlessly shattered his plans.

Even Hou Ji's eyes when he looked at Zhuge Jun couldn't help but show a bit more hatred.

After all, if it weren't for Zhuge Jun, he probably wouldn't have bought the physical copy of "Fantasy Book".

Zhuge Jun coughed twice with a guilty conscience and said, "Well, there's no need to finish these tasks today.

“Even if you complete these three tasks now, they will definitely continue to give you more tasks. It’s probably not realistic for you to finish the Fantasy Book in one day.

“From what I’ve seen online, the total game time for Book of Fantasy is about fifteen to twenty hours, depending on your puzzle-solving speed.

"Even if we calculate it based on the shortest time of fifteen hours, it definitely cannot be done in one day."

Hou Ji was very angry: "I understand, but... I really can't help it!"

This is where Fantasy Book destroys many players.

In fact, judging from this task alone, there is nothing wrong with its design.

The plot is simple and easy to understand, with a touch of fairy tale, which complements the beautiful scenery;

The mission dialogues are also quite concise and refined, with AI voice acting throughout;

There are many puzzles and other gameplay methods, with many varieties.

If this task is broken down into many different side quests, making them seem unrelated to each other, or if players are given an expectation of the complexity and length of the task from the beginning, the negative emotions generated by players will be greatly reduced.

But by making them into a game and adopting the method of "the more tasks you do, the more you get", it makes good use of the players' psychological expectations and creates a lot of negative emotions.

Especially when used in conjunction with the physical book "Fantasy Book", the effect is outstanding.

Although players also understand that tasks can be left until tomorrow.

But thinking is one thing, and doing is another.

Because in the past, the side quests in Endless Fantasy Tales 2 were relatively short, and only the main quests were relatively long.

When doing the main quest, players will consciously reserve enough time, so there is no problem; when doing side quests, they will reserve some fragmented time, and half an hour or an hour is just right.

But now the side quests have suddenly taken up to 20 hours to complete, which is even longer than the main storyline unlocked in divided time periods. This is completely contrary to the players' habit of fragmented gaming.

Players always think, "I'll take a break after I finish this task."

But after finishing this task, more tasks were refreshed all of a sudden. I started doing them unconsciously, but I couldn’t finish them. I felt a little uncomfortable giving up halfway.

This was really awkward.

In the end, Hou Ji decisively turned off the computer.

"Forget it, let's talk about it tomorrow!"

It was not his willpower that saved him, but turning off the lights in the dormitory that saved him.

If the lights in the dormitory were not turned off, he would probably fight until dawn today.

……

During this week, players have basically been fighting over "Fantasy Book".

There are complaints and misery all over the internet, but there is nothing we can do. The task is here and it cannot be changed by human will.

Players have different choices.

Some people insisted on doing it themselves, and after playing for a long time, they finally finished it;

Some people went to find videos to follow, emptied their minds and copied standard answers, and they completed the task;

Some just give up, thinking out of sight, out of mind.

In a short time, the name of "Fantasy Book" spread all over the Internet, and even many players who did not play "Endless Fantasy Legend 2" heard about this outrageous task.

Various memes and emoticons are emerging in an endless stream.

Many players said that if you accidentally entered the world of "Endless Fantasy Tales 2", and accidentally entered the Earth Kingdom Daliang, and accidentally came to a beautiful and picturesque valley, you would see a lonely exclamation mark in front of you and an unconscious herbalist lying on the ground.

So, please run as fast as you can to escape from the cyber fraud park. The farther you run, the better!
Once you feel compassion and want to save her, I'm sorry, you will embark on a journey of searching for her seventy-seven living fathers, starting a long adventure that you absolutely do not want to start but cannot interrupt.

However, most players still gritted their teeth and completed this series of tasks.

Zhuge Jun and Hou Ji also completed this task, and spent a long time pushing the map exploration to 100%, and finally got the due reward: the stamp on the physical book. I have to say, this stamp was really difficult.

Even at the moment of stamping, there was not much joy as I had expected, only a deep sense of exhaustion.

"Against Heaven, you did a good job on the side quest, don't do it next time."

Hou Ji couldn't help but sigh.

In fact, after completing the entire series of side quests, just considering the gameplay, this side quest is really well done.

At the end of the story, the hero finally found all seventy-seven monsters and purified all the paradises on the map.

These spirits expressed their gratitude to the brave man, presented him with different herbs, and put wreaths on his head. The beautiful valley regained its peace and tranquility once again.

In the final cutscene, seventy-seven goblins danced together for the hero. The hero, Xiyun, and the awakened herbalist Renxin played with the goblins. The whole scene was quite childlike.

But obviously, this is not enough to dilute the players' resentment towards the mission itself.

All I can say is that this kind of task only needs to be done once.

If there is more coming later, it will be really unbearable.

……

A day later, there was another new version.

It has to be said that the content arrangement of Endless Fantasy Tales 2 is really tight. Zhuge Jun and Hou Ji do not consider themselves to be hardcore gamers, and their daily gaming time ranges from 3 to 6 hours.

But even for players like them, they can only just complete the entire version of Endless Fantasy Tales 2.

If you have less time to play the game every day, such as only one or two hours, you will have to give up the side quests in the fantasy book and 100% completion of the large map.

But then again, players don’t actually have to pursue being the first to keep up with the latest versions.

Because this game is essentially a stand-alone game, if you can't finish this version, you can save it for the next version. Even if it is slower than others, it will not affect the gaming experience.

This update speed is just right for players who play the game for about 3 to 5 hours a day. For players who have more time to play the game, it can also effectively shorten the time they spend playing the game.

"New version, check the card pool first!"

Hou Ji couldn't wait to open the card drawing interface.

"Endless Fantasy Legend 2" is different from other card drawing games. It does not announce in advance what the next stage of the card pool will be, so players cannot prepare in advance and can only wait until the game is actually updated to see it.

This feels like opening a blind box.

After Hou Ji really saw the characters in the UP pool, his eyes lit up and he was filled with surprise.

Because he saw an old acquaintance!
The first character in the UP pool is actually Li Huanzhen!
This is the protagonist of "Ascension". Although his style has changed a bit in "Endless Fantasy Tales 2", he is still not difficult to recognize.

Especially the various elements on the body, which are basically restored.

For example, under his wide Taoist robe, you can see that his left hand is a skeleton arm surrounded by a circle of special black bamboo slips, faintly emitting a black aura.

This is obviously Li Huanzhen’s Record of Seeking Immortals.

Li Huanzhen's main attribute is earth, which is consistent with the official attribute of Daliang, the Kingdom of Earth; the other attribute is gold, which also coincides with the cyber life of the Kingdom of Gold.

After all, in the original "Ascension", Li Huanzhen's consciousness can switch between the flesh and blood world and the cyber world.

As for his skills, they seem ordinary at first glance, but if you look closely you will find that they are full of mysteries.

His small skill is a bit similar to the flick knife in "Ascension". You can perform the corresponding operation by clicking the skill key.

A perfect knife parry can add an earth elemental shield to yourself once;

Performing two perfect deflections in a row will grant you an earth elemental enchantment.

Performing three perfect knife bounces in a row can add a gold element enchantment to yourself, and the attack power, attack speed, elemental damage and other effects will be enhanced.

His ultimate move is a gold-attribute move, in which he pulls out the relic sword and chops.

While the ultimate skill is active, Li Huanzhen's body will be automatically repaired, and he can be automatically resurrected once if he suffers fatal damage.

Judging from its specific performance, this relic sword should be the "ultimate illusion".

Because the effect of "Ultimate Truth" is to confuse the AI ​​of flesh and blood monsters and turn them into friendly units; while "Ultimate Illusion" is to cut open space cracks, vaguely see the scene of another world, and instantly kill some specific monsters and send them to another world.

In this game, Li Huanzhen's ultimate move is not that abnormal, but it also has very considerable damage and very cool effects, and there will also be a special execution animation.

As for the other character, he is also an earth element character, and his primary and secondary attributes are both earth elements.

He is also an old acquaintance of the players, Zhao Siyuan, the general of Daliang, who is wearing heavy armor and holding a saber.

His skills look much simpler and more brutal. His small skills are to add an earth element shield and increase his dominance, while his big move is to enchant the saber with an earth element, which increases the attack power. The heavy attack module of long pressing the attack key will also change accordingly, and the attack range will be directly doubled. It's like he's chopping people with a 40-meter-long sword.

“…Another extremely difficult multiple-choice question!”
