Preface

At the peak of game development in the 1990s, what is the most classic strategy and board RPG game you have ever played?

During this period, the console platform's "Dream Simulator 2", "Power of Light 2", "Emblem of Flame", "Royal Knights 2" and "Frontline Mission" were able to seal the gods in their respective fields, which was considered to be the most perfect SRPG game in history at the time. Left the best memories for countless players.

It is a bit of a pity that MD and SFC were not as popular as FC at that time, and most players were able to access these games in the game hall where they were charged on time, as well as in Xintianli (the power can not be cut off when playing games). Once you miss it at the most appropriate time, you will regret it for the rest of your life, and you won't find that feeling even if you experience it on the simulator years later.

The games of the 1990s all have the difficulty and quality of the hard core. After going through customs several times, they still want to continue to play, and each time they can find something new.

Like "Royal Knights 2", it was regarded as the ceiling of strategic chess RPG at that time, but it was also surprisingly difficult, and it was estimated that only players of that era had the perseverance to stick it out. The fault tolerance rate is very low, and the wrong frame may lead to the containment of the whole game. Each level also has a variety of conditions to restrict the operation, which greatly improves the difficulty and maneuverability of the game.

Look at today's games, are obviously to please the players, the difficulty is not high, all the development is in accordance with our expectations, there is no longer that kind of challenge passion.

The series of Knights of the Yanlong, which is played on the computer, seems to be more popular than games on the mainframe platform. After all, there is no threshold for starting this kind of game, and you don't need to buy a mainframe to go to the computer room to play it.

Just like this, if we say that the most interesting chess game on the computer in the early days of the Knights of the Yan long, I think everyone has no problem with it!

And this series is recognized as the most successful strategic war flag work is "Yan long Knights 2 Golden City riddle", how do you feel that the early games are popular from the second generation?

Although the first generation also gained a certain degree of reputation, but the second generation is often the most influential.

In the era of DOS, there were a large number of SRPG games, which were of good quality at that time. But perhaps it is the characteristics of the times, often insert some inappropriate pictures for children, resulting in it is very difficult to have a sequel, and finally gradually forgotten by the players.

Of course, there are also some games that are deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, which have been treasured by players in the computer for many years.

The Knights of the Yanlong was a game of high quality and hard to scratch at that time.

Most players feel "bad experience" when they play for the first time. Play by the rules, never been to a hidden store, the level can not be promoted, the pressure is great in the later stage. Finally, there is no sky key, can only play 27 hurdles, and watched Yoni go to heaven alone to face unknown risks.

But later, after playing a few more times, it was completely lost, and there were too many bright spots in the game.

The picture comes from the Internet. So, what are the amazing things about the Knights of Yan long 2?

Innovative transfer and lenient level

At that time, the transfer system was more popular, but the "Yan long Knights" creatively joined two different directions, either using props or directly, with completely different effects.

Transfer props include: badge of the brave (Sol), genie seal (Yoni), book of understanding, book of mind, platinum badge, ring of the saint, flying dragon egg. It can be found in hidden stores and on maps.

Generally speaking, using props to change jobs is better than changing jobs directly, except for the protagonist Sol.

If Sol uses the warrior badge, he can be transferred to become a hero, learning to regenerate, teleport, Heavenly Fire, split Earth, Thunder and other magical spells, but if he does not use props, he can become a sword saint and use the strongest skill in the game, "Breaking Dragon strike".

Break the dragon strike:

If you want Sol to become the main combat effectiveness, then transfer to become a "sword saint"! Other gaudy skills are not of great use value, except for "teleportation". But there's someone on the team, so there's no need.

Yoni must use the "Elf Seal" to become a summoner, so that she has the strongest attack spell blazing angel, the strongest blood spell "wind leprechaun", the strongest auxiliary spell "sabotage", and the more used "dark evil ghost".

In the later stage, I even dared to teleport Yoni to the hinterland of the enemy, and the two blazing angels passed the border directly.

In addition, the "Dragon Rider" in the game must get a few more, otherwise many scenes will be passive in the later stage.

It may be hard for you to imagine that a game of chess can play 255 rounds, right? This game can do it. If players do not practice, at least half of them will not be able to reach the highest level before customs clearance. The biggest highlight of the game is card level training.

Find a good position, and then use the two members with higher defense to block all the enemies. Defense far exceeds the enemy soldiers, they will not attack, as long as they do not attack, they will take the initiative to restore health. The damage caused by each attack has an experience value, and the amount of health is proportional to the experience value. As long as you don't die, you can provide a continuous stream of experience values for the player.

255 rounds! Most of the characters can be raised in one inning.

At the beginning of the game, as long as the character reached level 20, he went to change jobs, and it was very difficult to play behind.

Especially in the face of the final BOSS, if the level is not enough 40-40, it is difficult not to be taken away. The Air Devil is the only villain in the game who can attack twice and uses the strongest divine Thunder. Even if Yoni destroys the blessings of God, most of the members cannot afford to be hurt twice in a row.

It is precisely like this, in the later stage, when we brush three or four brushes, we are all transferred to another job at level 40, which promotes the attributes of the characters to the extreme. I am adept at dealing with all the levels in the future.

Open-hanging operation and transmission

The characters who join us in the later stage of the game are basically chicken ribs, although they have changed jobs, but their combat effectiveness is often very poor, and the scope of movement is very limited.

With teleport, there is no movement problem in the game, and anyone can transfer it to any location. There are 3 people in the game who can use teleport, including Marlene, Saul and Yoni. In addition, Hilfa can use the transfer staff for transmission, and the effect is the same.

Under normal circumstances, however, Sol does not have to be transferred to become a hero with teleportation. 3 personal use is enough.

Teleportation, which appears in the strategic chess game, is clearly a plug-in!

However, this is not over, there is also a character in the game Sophia will use "action", can allow the "Cross" range of five players to act again, and can also gain a lot of experience.

With action and teleport, players can gain an advantage every time they start. A maximum of six people can be sent out in one game.

Sophia usually follows Yoni and Saul. After the completion of the operation, teammates will be able to move again when they stand on the cross. Yoni's "fiery Angel" and Saul's "broken Dragon strike" have been attacked twice in a row, which BOSS can bear?

If there are two people who know how to act, they will be invincible. BOSS didn't need to move. He was slapped all the way.

In fact, many years ago, some players thought that manoeuvre and teleportation were too abnormal. After all, in other chess games, similar action skills can only be aimed at one person, and teleport should have a limited scope. And this is exactly the highlight of the game.

The "Knights of the Dragon" series still has a lot to remember, and one or two articles can never be sorted out. If there are any details that have not been mentioned, please discuss them in the comments section.
