On December 1st, Thriller Paradise V1.50’s final version,”forever infinite world”, was officially released.
At midnight, the load on the game server reached an unprecedented peak. Millions of people chose to log into the game as soon as possible to experience the changes brought about by the new version.
But those from the frontline of hell … Did not join in the fun.
After all, they were not professional players and did not need to race against time to level up. Moreover, they had already experienced most of the new functions during the “limited time experience” period, so they were not that enthusiastic.
However, Feng bujue … Still came online on time.
Furthermore, he was not here to visit Thriller Paradise tonight, but …
“Welcome to the game log-in lobby. The following are all the game projects provided by dream Inc. Please select your login option.”
This was the first time that Feng bujue had chosen to switch between game items in the log-in lobby.
In the past, there had only been one option on the screen, Thriller Paradise. Now, there was another option, and that was crazy thoughts.
[This game is for all ages. I wish you a good time.]
Unlike Thriller Paradise’s intimidating log-in prompt (aged 16 and above, users with heart disease, mental illness, or related medical history are not recommended to touch this project), mad thinking’s log-in prompt was quite normal.
After the voice prompt, the options “confirm login,””cancel,” and “relevant disclaimers” popped up on the touch screen as usual.
Feng bujue’s habit did not change. He spent five minutes to finish reading the long and stinky disclaimer that most people would not even be able to finish in twenty minutes.
Then, he chose to log in.
In an instant, a white, thick stream of data light covered the top of the elevator. Like a moving “filter,” it slowly “swept” the entire elevator from top to bottom.
About ten seconds later, the ‘scan conversion’ was completed.
The entire elevator, including brother Jue’s own ‘style’, had changed.
If Thriller Paradise’s graphics were high-quality realistic CG, then mad thoughts ‘graphics were a’ 2d ‘,’ retro’ 3d Comic style.
“Welcome to the world of crazy thinking. The system has detected that you have purchased another product of our company,’Thriller Paradise.’ Would you like to use the appearance and nickname of the character in Thriller Paradise?”
After the conversion, a voice message popped up, and at the same time, a dialog box appeared before brother Jue.
Feng bujue chose ‘yes’ without much consideration.
“Confirmed. PS: players who use Thriller Paradise’s character name will have a special symbol next to their IGNS.”
After this line of text appeared, there was no more notification.
Feng bujue turned around to look. The buttons that said ‘conference room’ and ‘storage’ had all disappeared. There was only one button next to the door, and it said ‘DUEL!’
It was a simple word with an exclamation mark. It didn’t require much explanation, but anyone with the soul of a Dueler would be ignited when they saw this word.
“Hmm … What will happen if I press it now?” Brother Jue immediately tried it.
[Please prepare for the duel.]
The moment he pressed the button, a voice message popped up.
“Fine …” Feng bujue shrugged and returned to the touch screen.
Many might not believe it, but the interface of mad thinking was much more complicated than that of Thriller Paradise. As for the reason … It was naturally because a lot of the game’s content was completed in front of the screen in the log-in space.
For example, to buy things in Thriller Paradise, players had to “run” to many places, such as NPC shops, auction houses, puzzle card trading centers, thriller boxes, and so on. There were many forms and contents of transactions.
In [mad thinking], these things had to be done in front of the screen and in the online store.
For example, Thriller Paradise’s tutorial was a scenario for the players to go through.
However,[mad thinking]… Did not provide any “interactive tutorial” at all. The game directly listed the rules and let you go through them yourself. If you understood, you would understand. If you didn’t … You would understand after losing a few more games. After all, there were related hints in the actual game.
In addition,[mad thinking] ‘s mode and settings … Were really fitting.
Even though the game had just been released, it felt more mature than those card games that had been in operation for many years.
First, let’s talk about the “game experience.” As everyone knows, in this kind of PVP-based game, it is extremely important to avoid players with too great a difference in strength from meeting in random matching.
Dream Inc. Was very aware of this, so on the 25th of November, the day the server was opened,[mad thinking] had a ‘strong zone’ setting.
The current version 1.0 had four sections: [beginner],[advanced],[strong], and [expert]. The system would determine which strength section the player should be assigned to based on these three values.
The three values were “power level”, which was determined by the number of wins, win rate, win points, and hidden points.[Character level]: leveled up through experience; And the most intuitive “card library strength value.”
Of course, the game also provided a [no difference] area for players to use …
Next, let’s talk about the ‘playing’ part. In addition to the common 1V1, 2V2, and 3v3, there were also modes with special rules, such as 1V2, 1V3, three-person free-for-all, three-person round-robin, four-person cross battle, single-person survival consecutive battle, two-person survival consecutive battle, random card selection battle, mirror battle (both sides use the same card set), and so on. In addition, there were many strange matching options. The basic ones were ‘random match,”friend match,”fixed card table match,’ and the alternative was ‘lower beat higher challenge match,”concession match (give specific concession conditions before joining the queue),”match of the same age group,”gender match,”horoscope match,’ and so on.
Finally, in terms of winning and losing bets, it could also be defined. In addition to the general victory and defeat, there were additional “winning and losing in gambling cards”,”semi-banker bidding” and so on.
In short, even though it was a card game, mad thinking still had the quality of a ‘masterpiece’. It maintained the standard of dream Inc. And was serious in every aspect.
“Okay … Let’s see if that guy is here.” After browsing before the screen for a while, Feng bujue entered the No distinction zone and found a table named ‘host and crazy Raven’ in Zone Group No. 233.
“Ha … You’re really punctual.” After mumbling to himself, brother Jue clicked on the card table and entered the password ‘ 20551129’. He then successfully logged into the card table.
