Chapter 421 - Original hero, Dragon Lady ao Wei

Chapter 421: Original hero, Dragon Lady ao Wei

Very quickly, the sketches and detailed settings of each hero were out, and the various map scenes were also in the process of being produced.

So far, Chen Mo’s team had already made two VR games, with League of Legends as the foundation for the mechanics of the skills. It could be said that Overwatch wasn’t too difficult to make, the only difficulty was that no one had made an FPS game before, but it wasn’t an unsolvable problem.

Chen Mo planned to create 23 heroes in the first version of the Overwatch, 22 of which were original heroes in the game, including Anna.

Apart from that, Chen Mo also planned to create an original China Style hero, the Dragon Lady Phoenix Aowei.

In “Overwatch”, the two brothers, Genji and Hanzo, were similar to Japanese-style heroes. They used the images of ninjas and Ronin respectively, but the element of “Dragon” was given to these two Japanese characters.

Of course, most Chinese dragons had four or five toes, while the Shimada Dragon was a standard three-toed Dragon, which was in line with the basic characteristics of Japanese dragons, which showed that the two were still different.

However, no matter what, it didn’t make sense for Chen Mo to give Japanese characters and not Chinese characters after creating Dragon culture.

Therefore, Chen Mo decided to add a new hero to his 22 heroes, dragoness support ao Wei, as a supplement.

The background story of Dragon Lady Aowei was set as the last descendant of the Huaxia dragon clan. Her body had decayed, but her soul was still trapped in the altar at the bottom of the sea. A research team from Huaxia went deep into the East China Sea, and the Explorer Aowei dived into the sea and regained the power of the Dragon God from her previous life.

Aowei was a dual-form hero who could freely switch between the two characteristics of Assault Support, which were [Thunder form] and [rain form].

In the Thunder form, ao Wei’s normal attack was to quickly throw a bolt of Thunder at the target and stack the [Thunder rune] mark on the enemy. When the mark was stacked to a certain number, the enemy would be temporarily paralyzed and their movement speed would be reduced. If the enemy used a cold weapon as a melee weapon, it would temporarily block his normal attacks.

The special attack in the Thunder form was to create a thundercloud in a small area. The thundercloud would cause continuous damage to the surrounding enemies and continuously stack the effect of the [Thunder rune]. If used again during the duration, a thunderstorm will be triggered and all imprints will explode.

Aowei’s two special skills were [soaring cloud] and [weaving mist].

......

[Soaring cloud] made ao Wei’s movement speed faster, and she could fly freely. She could even go up and down to climb some tall buildings. The duration was short, and there was a cooldown time.

[Mist weaving] created a cloud of mist to wrap around the user, temporarily reducing damage, and also changing forms.

In the rain form, ao Wei’s normal attack was to quickly throw a stream of water at the target to recover a small amount of health points for her hero and stack the [rain talisman] mark. Only effective healing can stack the mark. When the mark stacks to a certain number, allies will receive an explosive healing and a temporary increase in movement speed.

The special attack was to create a rain cloud in a small area, which would have a continuous healing effect on the Allies in the area, and the effect of the [rain talisman] imprint would be continuously stacked. If used again during the duration, Healing Rain will be triggered and all imprints will be detonated.

Ao Wei’s ultimate skill was [true dragon form]. At this time, ao Wei had transformed into a Divine Dragon Spirit body, and her HP had greatly increased. She could temporarily fly in the air and cross any terrain (she could not drill into the ground).

In the lightning form, Aowei’s entire body would be wrapped in lightning, causing continuous damage to the enemies around her. In the rain form, Aowei could continuously heal the surrounding friendly units.

In addition, during the duration of the big move, ao Wei could choose to consume all the Dragon God’s power immediately and create a thunderstorm or a Healing Rain in a large area (depending on the current form).

Since the image of the Dragon Lady was widely used in Chinese games, the design was not difficult.

Ao Wei’s appearance was similar to the Dragon Lady in Battle God. She had a long black ponytail, a pair of dragon horns, and a red lightning mark on her forehead.

His face was covered with a Black Veil, and his clothes were mainly black. He looked clean and neat, with Golden Dragon scales embellishing his face.

Moreover, Aowei’s image would also inherit the consistent characteristics of the female characters in “the Overwatch”, which was that her chest and butt were very attractive.

In addition, ao Wei’s appearance would also change slightly in the two forms. The lightning form was mainly black in color, and the body would be surrounded by Thunder special effects. In the rain form, it would be white in color, and there would be a water flow effect around it.

At the same time, ao Wei added some Easter eggs with Xiaomei and the yuan brothers in her voice chat.

If ao Wei became teammates with the yuan brothers, she would say,””Be kind to the Dragon God’s power in your hands. They will be used to protect this world.”

If ao Wei killed the yuan brothers, she would say,””The power of the Dragon God that’s lost in a foreign land can’t defeat the Orthodox lineage in the end.”

In addition, ao Wei and Xiaomei were both heroes of China and members of the expedition, so they were very close. Other than the dialogue Easter egg, there was also a hidden Easter egg. When Xiaomei had the effect of ao Wei’s rain talisman, the quick freeze would last longer.

Ao Wei joined the game to give the players in China an explanation. Blizzard’s Overwatch gave the Dragon to Japanese characters. If Chen Mo copied it, he would probably be scolded by some Chinese players.

……

As the end of the year approached, there were no new games, and players were generally idle.

The League of Legends World Finals from October to November did boost its popularity, but after the finals, League of Legends entered a period of stability.

Starting from November, there were two key events in the gaming industry that were worth looking forward to. One was the gaming convention in January, and the other was the annual Gaming Awards ceremony before the Spring Festival.

Most players didn’t really care about the annual Video Game Awards ceremony. They didn’t care which game won the award, but the YouPlay Convention in January was a hot topic among many.

“Are you going for YouPlay this year?”

“Of course, there should be such a big event before the Spring Festival. Why not?”

“I don’t think there’s any game that I’m looking forward to this year.”

“Indeed, Emperor dynasty entertainment and ZEN Entertainment’s games this year aren’t that interesting, but let’s go take a look. Maybe there’ll be some games that’ll be released next year to try out?”

“Chen Mo will be going to the exhibition, right? This year, League of Legends has swept the entire PC market, and Thunderbolt entertainment is about to become a giant in the country. ”

“But there’s nothing to show in the exhibition, right? League of Legends? You’re tired of playing at home, so why don’t you go to the exhibition?”

“Uh, let’s go take a look. Maybe Chen Mo made a new game.”

“That’s not possible. He’s been busy with the finals for so long. It’s only two months until January. What can he do?”

“A DEMO is fine too. Or we can play new games from Emperor dynasty and Zen. Both are good.”

“That’s true. Let’s go and take a look together. ”
