Game Design: It is Very Simple For You To Fill In?

The game starts with the CG animation, which is a full moon emerging from the sea level.

It is bright and clear, and the uneven pits on the moon's surface can be clearly seen.

Above the deep and swaying sea level, there are flickering lights. Under the dim lights, a man is drawing the latest route with ink.

The man looked at the map in his hand. There were still traces of ink on the wet parchment.

His eyes became far-reaching, and the places beyond the new route also represented new continents and new civilizations.

Human nature is to constantly push ourselves across new boundaries, test our own limits, and face our fears. He looked at the woman beside him, pondered and then whispered, "The tide of history is constantly changing. If we want to reach the end of the journey, we must continue to adapt. , move forward bravely.”

How do we know we have reached the end?

Yinzi followed the question and fell into deep thought. The life of a nation is civilization, so where is the end of civilization?

Before he could think of the answer, the scene transitioned amidst the burning candlelight. A man wearing a holy white robe and holding a torch stood on the arm of the colossus of the sun god Apollo.

The blue-gray stone statues are lifelikely carved, and there are ropes on their arms specially used for climbing.

In the palm of the sun god's hand, there was a large bowl filled with fuel, and the torch fell from the man's hand toward the shiny black water.

The sweeping flames ignited the entire palm of his hand, like a god touching the sun.

In the burning flames, he saw the immortal Great Wall, the hanging red lanterns, the gorgeous fireworks, the sweater caravans, and the prosperous ancient Daxia!

When the fireworks in the sky faded, the mid-wing cavalry and rear-loading lancers in the snow attacked together.

In addition to the speeding arrows, there are also burning and exploding artillery fires, demonstrating the changes in a civilization from ancient civilization to the era of thermal weapons.

Before I knew it, I saw this day again. The Wright brothers invented the airplane.

On this day, humans conquered the sky.

When the plane fell and rose again it was World War II, it was an eternal artillery fire, and the sky was no longer the limit.

When a button is pressed, the picture jumps again to a human in a spacesuit.

Human exploration will never stop, human progress will never stop, we will compete in the galaxy, and human beings will be supreme!

It wasn't until he finished watching the animation CG at the beginning that Yinzi came back to his senses, with a shock that never dissipated in his heart.

In the animated CG clip of just over a minute, he saw the ancient period of the statue of the Sun God, the classical period when the Great Wall was located, the Battle of Vienna where the Hussars attacked, modern aircraft, and modern warfare. …

"Oh my god, is this game so awesome?" He unconsciously clicked on creating a game without watching the tutorial.

Isn’t it just a turn-based strategy game? What's so hard about this?

"When I play a dozen games in single-player mode, I'll be ready to play multiplayer games." Yinzi didn't care. His many years of game experience told him that he didn't need to read the tutorials at all. He would know it after playing a dozen games anyway.

Just like the skill descriptions in League of Legends, some of them have too much text and I’m too lazy to read them. You’ll know what the effect is after just two glances.

"There are quite a few civilized countries to choose from." He frowned and looked at the description next to the country's civilization. Each civilization has different attributes. In addition to the introduction of civilization, there are also productivity, siege units, Different familiar introductions such as livability.

There are also many choices of game difficulty. There are eight levels in total from Pioneer to God. In order to facilitate understanding and learning, he directly chose the first Pioneer difficulty.

In addition, there are more choices, map type, map size, disaster intensity...

He was distracted by the dense text, "Just pick one and let's start directly. Anyway, I should understand it after playing a few games."

Seeing him skipping the novice tutorial, Danmaku was dumbfounded.

‘It is recommended to choose Peter the Great. This game only has Peter the Great and other civilizations. ’

‘Damn it, you missed the most essential thing! ’

‘If you skip it, you won’t understand the game at all! ’

‘It’s a joke upstairs, I can’t understand it if I don’t skip it. ’

‘Get straight to work and start your greatest exploration yet! ’

…

The first thing he sees when entering the game is a small land. The game prompts him to build his own country on the land. Beyond the square inch of land, the map in the distance is hidden under the fog. It seems that he needs to explore to know what is behind.

From the first sprouts of life underwater... to the giant beasts of the Stone Age... to the first time humans walked upright, you've been through a lot...

Listening to the opening remarks of the game, Yinzi looked at the game interface and was a little silent.

Inside the screen, a small piece of land was divided into many grids, and there were many symbols on the interface that he didn't understand very well. Although he knew all the words, he couldn't recognize them when they were connected together.

Whether it is building an ordinary house or clearing wasteland, it costs one grid, and after being unable to take any more actions, he has no choice but to choose the next turn.

After playing around for a while, he felt that he didn't get the essence of the game because he was still a little confused and didn't know what to do.

I originally wanted to give up and stop playing, but then I thought about how many people like to play.

This must be my own problem, it must be a problem that I don’t understand clearly... Try again...

Yinzi pressed his temple and muttered in a low voice. This is almost the current situation of game players. Before they understand the game, everyone is bored to death.

Once you understand it, no one can escape the law of true fragrance.

"...Can anyone really play with such a complicated thing?"

“I really can’t imagine how everyone got through it in the beginning.” He looked at the number of daily active users of this game. If he hadn’t recently squeezed into the top ten and was stuck among old rogue games, he would have definitely thought that this game manufacturer was cheating. Daily life!

Then I had to sigh with emotion. Sure enough, as long as the game is made with care, no matter how complicated it is, players will feel the quality of the game with their heart, even if it is complicated.

What gamers lack most is the patience to master a game.

But looking at the symbols and word information on the screen, he had to admit that the pig brain was a bit overloaded and not very useful.

"This is the second person I've seen who dares to make a game so complicated and still has people buying into it."

"Wait for me to take a look at the tutorial."

As he said that, he clicked on the video software and started searching for relevant content.

After entering the word 'civilization', a series of videos appeared immediately.

[A "Civilization" tutorial that novices can understand] - 1820,000 views.

[Civilization animation CG, shocking opening! The life of a nation, civilization! 】——Play volume 104w.

…

When he saw that the novice tutorial had more views than the animated CG, Yinzi's lips twitched, it turned out that no one could understand it!

My cervical vertebrae have been hurting all night, and I feel dizzy and nauseous, as if I was dizzy in 3D. I usually practice Baduanjin after watching too much on mobile phones and computers. It will really make me feel better.
