Chapter 599 "Soul of Darkness" Plot Completion
After its release, the prequel of "Dark Souls" unexpectedly swept through most domestic live broadcast platforms and video websites. After all, with the reputation support of the predecessor, coupled with the higher level design level and more abnormal game difficulty, it is difficult for this game to be popular.
Of course, this popularity is more about popularity than sales. After all, this game is really too difficult and will definitely affect sales on the VR platform.
After all, there are still a few Doum players in this world. Compared to being abused in the game, people prefer to watch the anchor being abused...
However, those real hardcore players have a carnival because the Dark Souls prequel perfectly meets their requirements.
Although everyone is desperate in constant suffering, the prequel of "Dark Souls" has allowed them to regain their long-lost pleasure, allowing them to regain the joy of carefully holding a shield and constantly exploring the unknown world as a newbie.
Even many people feel boring after playing "Dark Souls" and playing other simple action games.
Because after playing "Dark Souls", players themselves have grown up, and they have been trained to some extent in their consciousness, reaction power and game IQ, so those simple action games have become unchallenging.
For many soul scholars, the greatest significance of the prequel of "Dark Souls" is that it has completed the world view of "Dark Souls" to some extent, and has given official answers to many previous unanswered questions.
Of course, although this worldview has been completed, it is actually not perfect, and can even be said to be riddled with holes.
Because when designing, this game originally had a lot of blank content for players to make up for by themselves. It can be said that everyone has a "Dark Soul" in their minds, and different people will have different interpretations.
However, after building a solid enough framework, it not only expresses the spiritual connotation of this game well, but also makes a lot of blank space for the game just right, allowing players to have room for imagination and exploration.
As the game progress of the pioneers continued to advance, many doubts that had previously enveloped everyone dispersed.
The biggest doubt is, what is the so-called "dark soul"? What kind of story is this? Is the player's mission to spread the fire or become the king of darkness?
In the prequel of "Dark Souls", players will encounter the Abyss Snake and learn the truth about the world.
As mentioned in the opening animation, four characters have obtained the king's soul. In addition to the three famous gods, including Gerwin, the witch of Izzaris, and the tomb king Nit, there is also an unknown dwarf.
Obviously, this dwarf is the ancestor of human beings, and the king soul he obtained is the Dark Soul. The Dark Soul was distributed to many humans, which means that in fact, every undead person has a Dark Soul to more or less.
Many of the subsequent settings seem natural. In fact, fire represents God's will, and the age of fire is God's age.
The Age of Fire symbolizes the era when the Sun King Gwen and the gods occupied the dominant position, so Gwen was willing to spread the fire at all costs, and even was willing to sacrifice himself in order to allow the Age of Fire to continue forever.
The fire transmission is actually a scam. The player plays the role of an immortal. He went through a lot of hardships to ring two bells, but it was just to prove that he was qualified to fire transmission. Later, he would also take back the power of the king's soul from many gods and continue the first fire.
The protagonist in the "Dark Soul" is even worse. As the fireless Yu Hui, he is obviously an immortal who cannot become a fire, but he is still awakened from the coffin to challenge the powerful fire kings and continue the fire era for those gods.
In this process, players will fight against many legendary characters, such as White Dragon Heath, Chaos Hotbed, Sun King Gwyn, etc.
Although players gained great sense of accomplishment in challenging these heroes, they also became suspicious of the entire world.
These legendary gods have become like walking dead, so what is the significance of the Age of Fire that they are trying to maintain at all costs?
In the final ending of the prequel of "Dark Souls", players can choose to pass the fire and extinguish the fire. If they choose pass the fire, the entire initial stove will turn into a sea of fire.
On the other hand, the ending of "Dark Souls" is that only a small tuft of flames are burning on the players, and these two types of flames are not the same magnitude at all.
Therefore, this proves that the power of the flame is inevitably declining and will sooner or later. The player has worked hard to transmit the fire and is just delaying time, which is actually meaningless.
As for what the world will look like after the fire is extinguished, no one knows.
The reason why people are afraid of fire extinguishing is that the legendary flames will fall into eternal night after they are extinguished.
Many people mistakenly think that this represents the destruction of the world, but in fact, these statements were spread by the Sun King Gwen and his children, and these people were nothing more than to continue God's era and their rule over mankind.
After understanding that the "Dark Soul" is actually the soul of a human, many players also understand that the Dark Age is the era of a human, and this is the ending of the Dark King.
Therefore, the King of Destiny of the prequel of "Dark Souls" should be the ending of the fire, that is, to continue this cycle, otherwise there would be no story of "Dark Souls"; while the King of Destiny of "Dark Souls" should be the ending of the King of Darkness, representing the arrival of a new era.
At this point, the main mystery has finally come to an understanding of the meaning of the title "Dark Souls".
Through the prequel of "Dark Souls", Chen Mo finally told the entire story of "Dark Souls" completely and completely.
At the same time, the fate of many characters in the prequel of "Dark Souls" has moved many players.
Alone against the abyss rambler Arturius.
Onion Brother and Sun Knight Solar.
Jin Shanshan who killed the fireproof woman.
The brother who set out on the journey again but turned into a zombie was persuaded to give up.
There are also colorful supporting characters such as White Spider, Blacksmith, Big Hat Logan, Women's Clothing Big Gwenderlin, Wangcheng Double Key, etc. There are NPs and bosses in it, but behind everyone there is a wonderful story and a sentimental ending.
Some people even replay "Dark Souls" because of nostalgia and found many traces of connection with the "Dark Souls" prequel.
Although the two works have been separated by a long time and the prequel was produced later than this one, people were surprised to find many easter eggs about the prequel of "Dark Souls".
Playing "Dark Souls" again, it feels like a different world.
The White Spider and Klana finally reunited, and there were no more demons in the demon ruins, and the chaotic flames were extinguished.
Through the Cold Valley of the Fairy Tale World, through the room with the portrait of the Sunshine Princess, there are still several knights guarding it.
I saw the familiar rotating mechanism in the royal city, and all the way up, the big words Yanorlong came into my eyes.
It was still the majestic royal city, the tall knights, but the dead giant blacksmith, the empty princess' boudoir and Eldridge, who ate the women's clothing boss Gwyndlin, all reminded the players.
The world of "Dark Souls" has changed.
