Game of the World Tree

Chapter 18: The Review of the Game

Half a day after the pre-OBT of The Kingdom of Elves, the first review of the game was published on the Internet in the form of pictures, words, and videos. Since the publisher was the senior anchor, Little Mu, his review was forwarded countless times as soon as it came out…

When Eve discovered this long article, it was one day later on the blue planet. At this moment, the number of clicks of the post had long surpassed a million, and the number of comments had been even more than five figures.

Eve knew Little Mu. In his former life, Eve had watched Little Mu’s videos many times. However, in order to win first place this time, Little Mu obviously gave up the video explanation he was good at making use of.

Without hesitation and with great interest, Eve clicked to open Mu’s page.

“Hello, everyone, I’m the anchor Little Mu. I suppose that a newly released virtual reality game has swept everyone’s friends circle recently. Yes, it is the great fantasy work–The Kingdom of Elves, which is said to have used “the technology of thought acceleration” and perfectly imitated reality!”

“Fortunately, this time I was also chosen by the official game company and have become one of the 300 pre-OBT players. This time, I won’t talk about game strategies. After all, many players who are good at strategies were chosen for the pre-OBT. Their strategies should also come out very soon. I only want to talk about my own game experience in this divine work.”

“Yes, a divine work. This is really a divine work! A divine work that crosses centuries!”

“I suppose that most people would have been shocked by the game’s promotional film on the Internet and would doubt whether the game truly has these effects. So, here, what I want to say is–everything in the game’s promotional film is true!”

“First of all, everyone should be most curious about the technology of thought acceleration. Before playing the game, I also highly doubted the credibility of this, but after entering the game, I found it to be true.”

“Although only half a day passed after the game’s pre-OBT, our real experience in the game consisted of a whole day! In order to prove it, I have already uploaded a 12-hour long video recording of the game to the website. Here is the link…”

“Those friends who plan to use this game to live-stream may be disappointed. Because of the existence of the thought acceleration, everything in the game seems to be four times faster in reality. So the effect of live-streams is very poor… The audience of my live-stream can prove this. This is a screenshot of the live-stream’s live subtitles at that time…”

“I don’t know what technology the official game company uses, but it turned out that they did manage to, in a sense, extend the game time. With this alone, other online games will not be able to surpass it!”

“As for the graphic quality, I want to say, after experiencing the game, that it is an insult to talk about the graphic quality of this game!”

“The game scene of The Kingdom of Elves has long been beyond the description of only high quality. As it says in the promotional film, the game is really ‘the truest’ and ‘the profoundest!’ It is really immersive! Furthermore, the scenery in the game is even more magnificent. Every screenshot of it far surpasses most wallpapers on the market.”

“Friends who like scenery can take a look. I have specially made a video of the primeval forest scenery in the game. You guys can experience it. It far surpasses tourist areas like Jiuzhai and Shennong! Here is the link…”

“In addition, everyone should know my nickname. During my period of time in the game, I had been looking for bugs in the game itself, but it turned out that I couldn’t even find a single flaw.”

“Besides, you guys know that although there are increasingly more virtual reality games and attempts to introduce gravity and perception, most games are not perfect. In fact, their effects are mostly rough and quite poor…”

“But The Kingdom of Elves is different. The game’s gravity engine and the five-sense experience are absolutely the most advanced in the industry. Nothing is disharmonious. If I did not clearly know that I had logged into a game, I would have really thought that I had transmigrated into another world!”

“As for the content of the game… At present, it should be to build an elf town. After all, the theme of the script is the revival of the elf race. In fact, I seriously suppose that this will be the novice village at the time of the open beta test…”

“I have to say that the official game company’s way to involve players in game construction is ingenious indeed. I can predict that the historical depth will be greater as the plot of the game develops.”

“Because of real perception, the experience of magic and sword skills is also extremely real. And the sense of gain after upgrading to a higher ranking is more wonderful than ever. Personally, I’m not very keen on upgrading by destroying monsters. But this game has revived my interest! Ha ha, albeit I just cut trees for a whole day in the game…”

“However, what surprised me most was none of those things. What surprised me most was the game’s NPC system!”

“Up till now, I have only met two NPCs in the game. One is a goddess named Eve Euktrahill. I have to say that this is my favorite and the best character model I have ever seen. I will directly give you a picture of her…”

“Isn’t she very beautiful? Isn’t she very cool? Kneel and lick! Mortals!”

“She is the embodiment of the World Tree who only appears when creating characters. She will randomly give the player two initial skills. As for what skills you will get, it depends on how your face looks. Other information is temporarily insufficient. But according to the main plot already given in the game, the player’s task is to assist Eve, the goddess, to restore the elf race.”

“Now the goddess is very weak. But it is said that she will have manifestation after recovering her strength. Players can expect to interact with the goddess in the future…”

“And the other is a believer of the goddess, Alice Gale, the saint of nature. She is a pure and lovely little elf sister. The players’ tasks in the beginning also mainly relate to her. This is a screenshot of the character…”

“Apart from these two NPCs, it is said that there is an oak guard. But I did not find him. Some people said that they had seen him on the edge of the safety zone. He seemed to be exploring something. People said that he was awesome. I suppose that this NPC may be related to the plot after rank 11…”

“Next, I’ll talk about the NPC system in detail.”

“If you confuse the NPCs in this game with that of other games, then I think you will miss a lot of fun. The NPCs in The Kingdom of Elves are definitely the most intellectual AI I have ever seen! They are real enough!”

“This is not only reflected in the NPCs’ facial expressions, movements, or languages, but also in their interaction with the players. If you also give green names to them, you will even consider them to be players! I’ll show you guys a video…”

“This is the video of our interaction with the NPC when we just met her. As you can see, when a player flirted with the NPC, her reaction was very vivid. She was even in a state of shyness, anger, etc…”

“At first, many players communicated with the NPC in an old-fashioned way. To summarize it, they believed that they could do anything out of mischief and would still be able to cozy up to the NPC as long as they finished their tasks well… This is also a common problem of NPCs in the major virtual online games on the market at present.”

“But in fact, the NPC in The Kingdom of Elves gave low points of impression to all those players with this idea.”

“If my analysis is right, the official game company should develop an independent emotional system, thought system, and even a memory function for the NPCs. You will get feedback similar to that of human beings through your every act toward the NPCs. The NPCs will also remember every player who has interacted with them. For example, the NPC’s face always hardened whenever she saw the player who had flirted with her…”

“Only when you really put yourself into the game and treat the NPCs as equals while communicating with them can you win their favor.”

“I suppose… this is also the official game company’s intention. If there were just vivid scenery and perception, The Kingdom of Elves would, at most, be a good work with an excellent sense of substitution and great experience. But once combined with the vivid NPC system, the whole game experience improves again…”

“It is no longer a masterwork, but a divine work!”

“It gives me a feeling that it is not just a game, but a real world full of magic and mystery!”

“Yes, this game reaches the acme pursued by virtual online games, which is to depict a real world for players! The sense of substitution is unprecedented!”

“Believe me, in this game, you will experience things that you have never experienced in other games before. You will start a new life!”

“I will stop here. It’s dawn in the game. I’m going to cut trees!”

After reading the short review, Eve suddenly understood something.

“No wonder the players have taken the game more seriously lately… So this is the case.”

Then, He continued to read the comments that followed.

Not surprisingly, this review once again detonated public opinion and attracted the attention of countless players. The hottest topic people discussed in their comments was when the open beta test of The Kingdom would take place.

Seeing this, Eve knew that He had already achieved one of His goals.

“From now on, there will be no shortage of players to exploit.”

However, Eve sighed helplessly at the thought of his own consumption after the recent arrival of the players.

“I still underestimated the difficulty of connecting the two worlds. In less than a week, I have consumed about 0.3 points of divine force. But the output of the players I have invested in is far from enough…”

“Alas, who knows when this group of fellows can turn my losses into profits…”

The mere thought of His divine force that was less than 11 points made Eve feel His heart bleed.

“When can I accumulate 100 points…”

While sighing, Eve suddenly heard someone muttering prayers from a long distance.

Eve recognized the voice and found that it was from Berserker, the oak guard He revived who had the power of Intermediate Silver.

At this moment, he seemed to be a bit excited.

Berserker? Did he find something?

Eve became anxious.

These days, after Berserker had cleared the threats in a 10-kilometer radius around the World Tree, Eve ordered him to start exploring the area beyond the 10-kilometer radius.

Although Eve had received the former World Tree’s inheritance and some of His memories, these memories were incomplete. Eve’s knowledge of the forest of elves was not comprehensive.

Additionally, 1,000 years had passed since the war of gods and the current forest of elves had long been distinctly different. Further exploration was urgent.

But Eve was too weak to see the surroundings by Himself.

Therefore, before human players grew up, Berserker the oak guard became the best candidate for exploration.

Thinking of this, Eve immediately connected with Berserker’s faith channel and cast His consciousness into him…
