I think back in those days, when I was still using the controller on the Famicom, a cassette only cost tens of dollars, and the games were tens to hundreds of KB. At that time, a 512K game was considered a masterpiece! Super Mario, Contra, and Red Fortress, which one is not a place where you forget to eat and sleep? It's better now. The performance of mobile phones is better than that of computers back then. Games can only take a few gigabytes at a time. When you open it, the picture is stunning, but what about the gameplay? Skin changing, gold earning, automatic path finding... the fun is really not as good as it used to be.
However, as a seasoned player, I still have to be honest. I recently tried "Honkai Impact Westward Journey" and it was quite interesting. The size of this game is still not small. After all, it's too embarrassing to call it a mobile game now that it doesn't have a few gigabytes, but the developer at least focused on the content. It renovates all the old characters from Journey to the West, with Red Boy as the protagonist and fighting in three different worlds. This idea is great! Think about it, when we played "Journey to the West" in the arcade, we only had those few characters over and over again. Now the red boy can be the savior. He has a very handsome appearance, Japanese two-dimensional painting style, and the 3D character model is so hot-blooded. Strategic matching, development and management may sound like old routines, but bringing monsters, monsters, and gods together to form a team can bring something new to the game.
To me, this game is like "Swallowing Heaven and Earth" that suddenly added various hidden elements, and it is also like the development flavor of "Fire Emblem". Although you still need liver and krypton, at least you won't be in a daze just watching the automatic battle. There were no smartphones at that time, and we could spend a whole day researching to pass the level. Now, the only thing that makes me willing to operate manually is my conscience. If you feel that today's games are too big and too tiring, and you want to find some of the feeling of the past, you can try this. At least the two-shot energy when the red boy fights will remind you of the days when you were young and giggled while holding the red and white machine. 😎
