Hello everyone, I am Dr. X.
In the past two days, the new Korean game "Undecember" has begun testing. As we all know, "dark games" have always been the advantageous area for Europeans and Americans. So, where does the Koreans’ confidence come from this time?
After experiencing the game, Dr. X basically understood: this time, Koreans once again played their strengths, that is, "good at learning"! Their "stealing" targets are the "three poor boys" who once started a business in the garage and completed the counterattack from a loser to a big shot: Chris, Jonathan, and Eric.
And the representative work of these three poor boys is "The Road to Exile" that can be directly confronted by the "dark game" Grandmaster Blizzard.
Key points one: How strong are Koreans’ learning abilities? Players who imitate the essence and play "The Road to Exile" through
will definitely be impressed by the game's "skill stone" system.
The mage plays the great sword, the warrior rubs the fireball... "The Road to Exile" gives players great freedom of play through the design of "Talent + Gem".
And "Undecember" draws on this core design of "The Road to Exile". However, judging from Dr. X's current experience, the talent tree system of "Undecember" is relatively simple.
Because of the "big dot" on the talent tree of "Road to Exile", its status as a cornerstone of BD can change the game's mechanism; while the talent of "Undecember" is more about the enhancement of numerical values, and is an existence that assists after selecting the BD direction.
↑Physical damage, attack speed, physical critical strike... It is obvious that it is the choice of physics characters↑
As for the rune system of the game, it is quite similar to the skill stone in "The Road to Exile". An active skill can link several passive skills to enhance the active skill.
↑Reduce cooling, increase damage, reduce resistance... I believe that ARPG old ass doesn't need to be translated↑
However, compared to watching "The Road to Exile", Dr. X feels that the "puzzle" of "Undecember" will be more playable. When each rune is obtained, each edge will generate a random color. Only when the boundary colors of the two runes are the same can the pairing be completed.
↑The skills linked together are released in actual combat, and the linkage effect is ↑
So one of the graduation criteria for "Undecember" is that is on a rune disk, and players can choose the appropriate rune color and placement position to allow multiple skills to eat as much passive bonus as possible at the same time.
As for the game's skill style, Dr. X also feels that it has a strong flavor of "The Road to Exile". However, designs like Arrow Rain and Tornado Slash can basically be seen in a game of brushstrokes. To put it bluntly, it is lazy. To put it bluntly, it ensures the stable performance of the game and raises the lower limit of the game experience.
Keyword 2: The taste of Korean games you are familiar with. This game has
. After reading how Koreans learn advanced experience from Europe and the United States, Dr. X will talk to you again about how this game promotes the characteristics of Koreans.
mentions that Koreans are working on games, and developing MMOs with many elements is definitely what they are best at. "Undecember" also has a strong MMO flavor in it.
↑The once popular " Sword Spirit " is a typical representative of this kind of kimchi design↑
For example, in the game, in addition to the common "climbing towers" and "large secret realm" gameplay in ARPG, "Undecember" also introduces a large number of MMO gameplay.
↑PVP union battle, Dr. X is willing to call MMO's PVP gameplay code ↑
is like the core gameplay book that supports MMO, and it was also made into a dark game by Koreans. The group book of "Undecember" is even more excessive: has not been resurrected!
Once you lie on the floor, you can only wait to be taken over or wait for the group to be destroyed before coming. It can be said that it is quite hardcore.
↑The group of people who are currently leaked is a copy of eight people. The team size is not big, but it is not small↑
↑Is the floor cooler? ↑
In addition, the many complex cultivation lines that are accompanied by "Undecember". For example, "pets", I believe that everyone who has been poisoned by various Korean games (and domestic games) will tighten their crotch when they hear this?
↑Baby plus attributes, and you all know ↑
However, many of the cultivation parts of "Undecember" can be carried out through the resources in the game, rather than extra krypton gold... Anyway, you have to choose one of the liver and krypton.
Key points three: European and American style games made by Koreans. Take the initiative to show kindness to Chinese players?
Before this test, Dr. X also had one concern about "Undecember": many Korean games are at least in the testing stage, and their friendship with foreign players, especially Chinese players is questionable.
For example, when the first test of "The Lost Ark" started in the past few years, there was a plot in which the anchors broadcast live on the live broadcast platform, but were then banned by a specific ID. Even after the game was officially launched, the official also specifically instructed players: "The game is only open to the South Korean region now. If you find that there are foreigners playing secretly, remember to report it."
. Compared with the Korean game with a bad temper like "Lost Ark", "Undecember" is much more friendly to Chinese players.
Although players are required to download a separate game platform, the game platform itself has a good support for simplified Chinese, and creating an account does not have much threshold for newbies in the foreign server, let alone veteran drivers who are familiar with it.
↑The registration process also has some Chinese, while Korean appears in the email verification stage... However, there is no need to understand the verification code matter↑
↑The platform itself supports Chinese as well↑
0 As for the game itself, it can be summarized in six words: does not lock the area, there is Chinese .
The test of "Undecember" is not limited to the number or area, and it is not very difficult for Chinese players to experience it. Even the game itself comes with simplified Chinese! For a Han You who has no horoscope in China, it is not easy to be born from the womb and speak Chinese.
↑The situation of Chinese players being persuaded to withdraw from the Korean server by the language fortress has been greatly improved↑
Only later on the first day of the test, "Undecember" temporarily canceled its support for Simplified Chinese, and as of the time Dr. X finished writing this article, there was no sign of reopening of the game's Chinese.
Perhaps it was the influx of Chinese players that made Undecember a little unbearable. If this "accident" really occurred due to inevitable technical reasons, then Dr. X thought it would be okay to give this game more time.
Summary after class :
In short, "Undecember" is also a dark game, and it also has a strong Korean flavor. Fortunately, the game quality is still very strong, and if you have the chance, it will definitely be a loss to experience it.
Finally, let me talk about this game, both on PC and mobile phone. It should be good news for all players who like to rub glass boards. In the future, "Undecember" will have the chance to log in to Steam, and all the parties will most likely win in the end.
