Located in Shenzhen, a 25-year-old office worker, commuting by subway every day and slacking off during lunch breaks. Recently, a colleague recommended 'Qingyun Legend' to me. At first, when I heard the name, I thought it was just another clichéd rehash of a Xianxia story, but then a few of us entered the zone together, eating takeout at lunch while running dungeons, and surprisingly, it got a bit addictive 😂
First, let's talk about why it's suitable for office workers. There's only one hour at noon, for eating and resting, really no time to grind. This game can auto-navigate and auto-fight monsters. If you want to take it seriously, you can switch to 3D view and manually use skills. The full-screen effects are lively, and watching them during a lunch break is actually quite relieving. There are six layers of class advancement. I chose a ranged class, my colleague chose a warrior. When we team up in dungeons, he tanks while I deal damage. Our coordination is purely built from practicing during the one-hour lunch break.
The gameplay is just the typical immortality MMORPG stuff: main quests, dungeons, mounts, divine pets, costumes, and romances. But the maps and storyline are fairly new, not entirely copied. I haven't caught the thousand-year giant Kun yet, but my colleague is already riding it around everywhere, which is frustrating. The costume and weapon awakening is quite flashy; the female colleagues play it like a dress-up game, while the male colleagues focus on studying combat power. At lunchtime, there's more to talk about in the break room. We haven't tried couples' cultivation, as office romances are too risky, haha.
The charging model looks like 0 yuan, free to download. I'm currently spending nothing, and I can still play slowly; of course, if you want to compete on the ranking, you'll need to spend time or money. It's suitable for people like us who don't want to be tied down by daily tasks. You can log in during lunch to clear a bit, and if you're too tired from working late, just leave it on auto and don't aim for the top tier. The developer is Shenzhen Xianxian Interactive Entertainment Network Technology Co., Ltd. It runs fine on my Android phone, and I haven't really experienced any disconnections during lunch.
Let me also mention the drawbacks: the auto-battle feels a bit like a web game, and the quests involve running around sometimes repetitively. But if, like me, you just want a Xianxia mobile game that you can tap along with your colleagues during lunch break, you can give 'Qingyun Legend' a try. Anyway, it's free, so let's join together and catch the giant Kun, brothers 🐟
