Taking defeating the demon king to bring peace to the world as the main axis of the story, the brave man experienced a series of changes from an ignorant teenager as usual, met a life-and-death partner on his journey, and finally gained enough strength to defeat the demon king and bring hope to the world again. This seemingly old-fashioned story will really make players who are used to watching the Final Fantasy series feel a little uncomfortable, but as shown in the subtitles of the game, "The Brave Fight the Dragon XI" also makes players find back the lost time. As for the lost time, I think it should be when the players first came into contact with the game when they were young, and they still had childlike innocence in their hearts.
Born in the once prosperous eugenol kingdom, the brave suffered a national disaster when he was born, or the brave who was still a baby was saved by Princess Martina of Delkadaru Kingdom. Martina accidentally dropped the brave man into the river because the pursuer was chasing after her. Fortunately, the brave man met an old man who was fishing by the river. He calmed the frightened baby and picked him up. 16 years later, the adult brave and childhood sweetheart Emma completed the adult ceremony. When they got home that night, the foster mother sincerely told the brave man his true identity, expecting him to do his part for the world with the help of the brave man. So the brave man began to pack his bags, and according to the contents of the letter written by his mother, he went to the Kingdom of Del Kadaru to seek the assistance of King Del Kadaru. At this moment, brave people don't know what fate they will encounter.
"He's the devil's son. Get him!" I finally met King Del Kadaru. I thought I would be regarded as the savior, but I didn't expect to be the son of the devil who brought disaster to the world. The brave man was mercilessly thrown into prison. Fortunately, he met a young thief named Camus in prison. After many twists and turns, they managed to escape from Del Kadaru. Worried about what to do, they decided to take action, from looking for the red sphere to being wrongly transported to a distant flame. They met Veronica and Suet Nei Ya, twins born to help the brave, and Sylvia, a wandering artist who wanted to bring laughter to the world. Finally, they happened to meet Ye Luo, the former king of Yugnole, her own grandfather, and Princess Martina, who had been looking for the whereabouts of the brave by Ye Luo, joined the team smoothly. Although the purpose of joining the team is different, their ultimate goal is the same, that is, to wash away the notoriety of the brave and defeat the devil who destroys world peace behind the scenes.
The above is the first half of the three story chapters of "The Brave Fight the Dragon XI". It takes a long time to play, and it takes more than 60 hours just to cross the main story. Gradually let players feel the narrative techniques of wave after wave of climax, and truly present JRPG's fascinating journey to save the world. The story of this book belongs to the standard king plot, with happy moments, sad moments, angry emotions and bloody battles. The only thing that makes me dissatisfied is that the brave as the protagonist is too calm. Seeing a long-lost relative and facing the devil who has destroyed the country is always the first expression, which makes people feel unreasonable and sometimes embarrassing.
The overall game flow of "The Brave Fight the Dragon XI" is very simple, that is, exploring, fighting and triggering the plot. Players have to follow the mission instructions to reach a specific place, and they will encounter enemies, challenge the maze and trigger subplots during the journey. For example, in the middle of the game, after finding all the partners, we have to find colorful pearls scattered all over the world to unlock the road to the tree of life. At this time, we will get relevant clues from our peers and explore in designated areas, so as to get the pearls smoothly and continue the main story. Because this map of the world is not small, although there are mantras that can be spread to villages around the world, if you don't remember the key place names, you may still be embarrassed to run a long way but go to the wrong place. At this time, you should talk to your partner or passers-by with pink exclamation marks on their heads, so that you can grasp the location of the next plot trigger in the first time.
With the development of the story, the brave and his party will travel around the world to find ways to defeat the devil. Players who control the actions of the brave will follow them up the mountain and into the sea, just like going to the fantasy world in person. The scene design in the game is amazing, and it is obvious that the inspiration for setting different towns comes from different countries and civilizations in the real world. From Shijing Village, which was hidden in the mountain road at the beginning, to the flames of Japanese harmony style, to Sol Tico Town, which is as beautiful as Venice, and then to Murea, an underwater kingdom with clear blue and dreamy dreams, any game scene has impressive and peculiar scenery, which also makes the exploration process of "Dragon Fight the Brave XI" not boring, but like a trip to many countries.
As the originator of JRPG turn-based combat, the combat system of The Brave Fight the Dragon XI is very retro. It is the same for the enemy and me to stand still. When the enemy hits you, we will fight back. For players who grew up with JRPG game types, it should not be difficult to adapt, but when they meet an old friend in another country, they will have a sense of familiarity. The newer system should be the calm state newly added from Dragon 8. In this state, not only the original value of the role will be greatly improved, but also the rich and varied hand-to-hand combat skills can be displayed. Unarmed skills will combine different effects according to the different partners in the current team. These big moves are usually difficult to trigger, and the power is amazing. Used at the right time, they can usually reverse the battlefield disadvantage and successfully defeat the strong enemy. However, it is important to note that most leaders and enemies will enter a state of calm (bursting is not the protagonist's patent). Don't be wiped out by the leadership's big move because of negligence!
The character upgrade system of The Brave Fight the Dragon XI is very simple and easy to understand. In addition to getting the experience upgrade level, you can also use the skill points obtained from the upgrade to let the characters learn more powerful stunts and passive skills. Each character usually has more than three different upgrade routes, which is related to the types of weapons that the character can equip and use. For example, the weapons that the brave can equip are one-handed swords and two-handed swords, so they can learn all kinds of sword skills. In addition, according to the different characteristics of the role itself, they will unlock different skill routes. If you are not satisfied with the skill type you currently choose, don't worry that choosing the wrong skill will cause irreparable results. You can go to church at any time to reset your skills with money. At the end of the game, you will gain more skill points by upgrading, which means that if the level is high enough, you can learn more skills.
It seems that in order to increase the fun of the game, there are many unknown details about the brave fighting the dragon XI. Take the monsters wandering on the scene map as an example, there will be obvious differences between the types of monsters appearing during the day and at night, and some nocturnal monsters will sleep during the day. At this time, as long as you approach quietly and don't disturb him, you can get a preemptive opportunity. In addition, some maze monsters will get together for specific activities. The most famous should be the library maze. We can see Professor Long wearing a bachelor's hat and glasses educating other monsters. If players don't bother them, they won't turn to attack you. There are many such designs. Although these designs have no substantial bonus to the gameplay, the attention paid by the production team to the details is really conveyed to the players' hearts.
There are so many kinds of monsters in the game that people can't help but want to catch them. Unfortunately, the brave fight against the dragon XI does not support this function, but players can still interact with them as a special monster type. When you find a glittering monster, it means that we can defeat it as a mount after triggering a battle. Riding these monsters can take us to areas that we can't reach smoothly on foot, such as the egg-shaped monster with super jumping ability, which can help you jump on the high platform, and the flying dragon can carry you across the lake to find the hidden treasure chest in the depths. In short, riding a mount can increase the exploration scope of the map and add some changes to the seemingly boring map running game.
I'm ashamed to say that I didn't play too many series of works before I came into contact with this book, but fortunately, the fighting system of "The Brave Fight the Dragon XI" is the same JRPG gameplay that has remained unchanged for 10 thousand years. In order to adapt to the changes of the times, players can switch the control and tactics of their roles at any time. When you think that the monsters in this area are no longer a threat, you can even turn on the automatic combat system, and all the characters fighting on the field will be controlled by the computer AI for them to train and brush. It is precisely because "The Brave Fight the Dragon XI" is a work with no difficulty in getting started, so this work is the series of "The Brave Fight the Dragon Xi" that is most suitable for novice players at present. If you have the game experience of Final Fantasy series, you can enjoy the JRPG works with some innovative elements in retro.
Even after all these years, JRPG is still so attractive to players. I wonder if the dream of the brave still exists in everyone's heart? On the other hand, to become an excellent role-playing game, the most important thing is not the complicated core gameplay or the cool game screen, but the combination of the basic gameplay and the screaming story. "The Brave Fight the Dragon XI" takes players back to 30 years ago with simple game content, and uses the story of Wang Dao, which once seemed to be the same, but now it has become a rare value, so that players can find back the past time that has long passed away.
Advantages:
+Feelings is no longer a derogatory term for this book. As a masterpiece of this series for more than 30 years, its performance is very bright.
+The overall difficulty of the game is low. In case of jam, it is recommended to use automatic combat instructions to improve combat effectiveness.
+The map scene is like a dream. Every time you pass through a village, just like traveling abroad, the surprise never stops.
+The story is sometimes serious and sometimes relaxed. The characters in the story are full of blood and tears, just like close friends.
Disadvantages:
-English dubbing has a strong sense of contradiction, and there is a gap between dubbing content and text translation, which is not very good.
Conclusion: A 30-year-old masterpiece, which can't be missed, loves Japanese role-playing games.
