Chapter 889 A beginner’s tutorial without a trace

Translator 549690339

“After all the hard work, Zhao Lei finally got the hang glider and could leave the starting platform. ”

“At this moment, he suddenly realized that the entire starting ground was just a beginner’s tutorial. ”

“Thinking back, it seemed to be the case. From the beginning, the old man taught link how to use fire, to opening the tower, exploring the temple to obtain special abilities, and finally to the hang glider ... It seemed like he was teaching the players how to play the game. ”

“However, this tutorial was too extravagant. Not only did it take almost two hours, but it also marked out a special area, the starting ground. ”

“Thinking back, Legend of Zelda’s game mechanism was actually very complicated and had many systems. For example, just the content related to fire could be used to light a fire, cook, attack enemies, and many other different uses, not to mention the fancy operation of waving a torch to drive away bees. The protagonist’s special abilities included magnets, ice, bombs, time freeze, and many more. These systems could also affect each other and interact with each other. It was not an exaggeration to say that they were ever-changing. ”

“However, he didn’t feel any headache while playing such a complicated game system. He didn’t feel any pressure from learning. It was as if he learned everything naturally. ”

“The reason was that the game content of the entire starting platform had been strictly planned and was full of all kinds of ability-related puzzles, from easy to difficult. Every time the players solved a small puzzle, their understanding of the game’s mechanism would go further. After playing the entire starting ground, they would have a rough grasp of the complex system. ”

“This step-by-step method was equivalent to breaking up the entire system and crushing it to feed the players, so it was not difficult for the players to understand. ”

“In the process of playing, the player didn’t feel like he was being taught how to play the game at all. The entire teaching process was smooth and natural. This was because this kind of beginner’s lesson wasn’t forcibly completed through text messages or forced operations, and there were no prompts. It was just a few monsters and a stone placed there for the players to explore on their own. ”

“In other words, the players were really learning in the game. Even if the players didn’t discover this special mechanism, it didn’t matter. He could still rush through it. However, in the future, there would be many such map mechanisms, and the players would discover it sooner or later and come to a sudden realization. ”

“Legend of Zelda created many complex systems to increase the degree of freedom in the game. In order to reduce the cost of understanding and learning, an entire beginner area was specially created for players to learn and grow in battle. ”

“By the time the players got the hang glider and could leave the starting ground, Link’s abilities had all been unlocked. The players also understood how to use these abilities. The rest of the journey would be a real adventure with a high degree of freedom for the players. ”

“The main plot was clear. They had to defeat the Four Divine Beasts, defeat cannon, and rescue Princess Zelda. The next route was also determined, which was to float out of the starting platform and go to a nearby village to find a person called Impa to get the next hint. ”

“However, Zhao Lei didn’t want to leave the primitive plateau because he could feel that there was still a lot of content that he hadn’t explored. ”

“If it were any other game, finding the four key temples to complete the main plot would mean that there was no need to continue exploring the other places. There would only be some simple side quests or repeated collection of elements, which would not affect the experience of the main plot and would not be very attractive to the players. ”

“However, Legend of Zelda was different. Zhao Lei even felt that running around on the map was much more interesting than the main plot ... ”

The four sacred beasts and Princess Zelda were not as fun as catching grasshoppers in the grass.

“There were still many surprises hidden on the starting plateau. For example, when cutting grass with a sword, you could find grasshoppers under the grass to make stamina potions. When climbing up a tree, you could find nests and bird eggs. When cutting down trees to collect firewood, you could make a bonfire. When clearing the camp of pocklin, you could get large pieces of roasted meat and the items hidden in their treasure chests. There were also many treasure chests hidden at the bottom of the lake, and those malicious cute things, ahaha ... ”

“In other games, trees, grass, fruits, and bird’s nests were just scene models or stickers, without any interactive functions. However, in Legend of Zelda, almost everything you could see on the map was interactive, especially at the beginning of the game. Even if you touched a bird egg or caught two fish in the water, you would feel a strong sense of novelty and achievement. ”

“If he were to leave just like that, he would feel like he had missed out on a hundred million. ”

Zhao Lei used the glider to float down from the temple and took a good look at the beautiful scenery of the starting platform.

“The entire mobile system of Legend of Zelda allowed players to climb any mountain, swim across rivers and lakes (not swamps and ice rivers), and glide from high places to distant places. ”

“In other words, players could explore every corner of the game freely. In other games, there might be mountains and seas as a distant view, which players couldn’t reach by conventional means. However, in The Legend of Zelda, any place that could be seen on the map could be visited, and as long as one went, there would be gains. ”

“It could be a few rare mushrooms, it could be yahaha, it could be a temple, it could be some other special material ... In any case, any place that seemed to be deserted would definitely have a surprise waiting for the players to find it. ”

“Of course, whether it was climbing, swimming, or gliding, they all consumed physical strength. However, this would only restrict players in the early stages of the game. In the later stages, players could use the trial proof to increase their stamina to three tubes. Moreover, they could stock up on a large number of stamina potions, allowing them to climb or glide without limit. ”

Zhao Lei walked around the starting ground again and found two treasure chests.

“Although he was still a little reluctant, he looked at the time and saw that two hours had passed. Although the battery life of the swtiger pro and the flagship model of the matrix glasses could still sustain, Zhao Lei was a little tired. ”

“If he didn’t look at the time, Zhao Lei wouldn’t have realized that he had already spent two hours in the game because the style of the game was very friendly and made him feel very relaxed. The small riddles on the map always caught the players ‘interest, so they would not feel bored. ”

“After taking off his glasses, Zhao Lei immediately decided to buy it! ”
