I just saw this advertisement for "The War of Zhige" and my first reaction was "Holy shit, are mobile games so good now?" Cross-time and space linkage directly puts Hua Mulan into the battlefield of the Three Kingdoms. The picture is so beautiful that I can't even imagine it. I think back then, the most in "Dynasty Warriors" was Lu Bu fighting Japanese Warring States generals. There were no smartphones at that time, and we could all be excited for a long time holding the PSP. Now it would be better to have a heroine from the Northern and Southern Dynasties on the same screen as the Shu Han Dynasty Prime Minister. This is a bigger imagination than when I created dinosaurs in "Red Alert".
To be honest, after playing games for decades, I am most annoyed by the reskin version of Three Kingdoms. But this time, the line "The fall of Shu was not the fault of the general, I want the prime minister to win this time" is a bit interesting. I remember when I was playing "Legend of Crouching Dragon", I felt so frustrated every time I watched Zhuge Liang running out of gas and energy. Now, can I change his fate in the game? I eat this wave of feelings.
But having said that, these new games nowadays are really willing to give out welfare codes. I counted this string of redemption codes, from vip666 to svip999, as well as dalao888 and zgzz777. Oh my god, there are more passwords than I used to memorize the 30 lives of "Contra". How could such a good thing happen at that time? Want to become stronger? It's either krypton or liver, unlike now where you can get something by just typing “zgzz000”, new players are indeed happy.
Of course, as a veteran, I also understand that this kind of game is mostly based on numerical values. But if you can't resist others, you will make a living. Hua Mulan and the Three Kingdoms. This combination would have been scolded and reformed twenty years ago, but now it feels fresh. I think back when we played "The Age of Discovery", we still thought the protagonist couldn't go to America. Now the game wants to stuff the entire history book into a cross-border fight.
Anyway, you are free when you are idle, and it is not a loss if you enter a few codes. If I can really control Hua Mulan to help Zhuge Liang survive, then I, an old player, would be happy to see what the current game can do with this idea. After all, from playing on the Famicom to now, what weird gameplay haven't you seen? Maybe this wave of cross-time and space brawls can actually lead to some fun. 🚗💨
