I had just cleared the "Nightclub Raid" mission in "Ready to Shoot" and I was slumped on the back of my chair, my hands still shaking. I was so immersed in it that the depressing feeling I felt when I put on my headphones and heard my own footsteps echoing in the corridor still hasn't gotten over to this day.
This game is completely different from the tut tut tug I played before. It is slow, extremely slow. You have to bend your waist with every step. Before entering the door, you have to press against the wall to listen. When you see the figure, your first reaction is not to shoot, but to shout "Don't move". The first time I didn't shout, I just tightened my fingers and knocked the person down. As a result, the task score was ridiculously low, and my teammates even looked back at me. At that moment, I actually felt ashamed in the room at 1:30 in the morning... I'm sorry, SWAT uncles, I was too reckless.
What struck me the most was the feeling of powerlessness. The first time I was hit by a gangster, the screen turned red. There was no such gorgeous "residual blood counterattack" gasp, it just went dark and I heard my teammates shouting "Officer down" in the earphones. I was stunned for a long time, and suddenly realized that I was really fragile in this game, just like in the real world. Those SWAT charges you saw on the news turned out to be risking your life every second.
But it's this “slowness” and “crispness” that makes me particularly addicted. When I was playing in the early morning, the whole world was quiet. There was only the halo of the tactical flashlight in the game sweeping across the wall, and the occasional sound of glass breaking in the distance. I whispered and cooperated with my teammates, as if I was actually executing an operation that no one knew about in some corner.
Now turn off the game, the sky outside the window is a little white. I stayed up all night again, but my heart was full. If you also like games that require patience and can immerse you to the point of forgetting time, you can really try this. But remember to turn down the volume, don't be like me and get scared out of your chair when you shout “put down your weapons”. 🌙
Next time I plan to challenge the bank robbery mission, hoping to get S rank... Forget it, go to sleep first, maybe I am also a special police officer in my dream. Good night, fellow forum friends.
