"Have you heard about the new ga?"
"No? What is it?"
"Seriously? It's called Settlent. It was made by the sa company who made last year's ga of the year."
"Yeah so? It doesn't an it is going to be as good."
"No no no. Look at the trailer."
"Are you serious! Look at the graphics! I can practically drink that water and feel the heat of those flas"
"YES!!! There are elves!!!"
"Look at that dragon at the end of the trailer absolutely stunning"
…
Settlent, the new ga produced by Lotus. I got this ga after hearing everyone talk about it on my way back from work. Whether it was teenagers, middle-aged n, or won, all I heard from their mouths was that Settlent is the next-gen ga.
"Well, at least I haven't stopped playing gas since high school. Might as well jump on the hype train."
I sat at my desk and turned on my computer, and the familiar beeps and boops filled the room as I slouched in my chair. For a mont, I closed my eyes and thought back to the good old days where I could happily play gas every second of every day and not worry about a thing. Everyone around , friends and family, would always be grinding to improve just so they could rub it in each other's faces the next day.
"I miss them..."
It's been 4 years since my parents passed away in that unfortunate car accident and I have been living alone since. I distanced myself from my old friends and colleagues, and now only work at the local convenience store to get by. I used to be that happy-go-lucky child who did whatever they wanted, from sports to music to camping to playing video gas, but now I just sit at my computer playing gas after I return from work, sleep and eat.
I shake my head and turn my head towards the computer.
"Enough, no need to reminisce on the past. It's ti to look into this ga."
I sit up straight, crack my knuckles and search up 'Settlent' in the web browser. I click on the first link which takes to the hopage of the ga. I see the trailer and so other links but I first click on the 'Forums' tab. I can see how active the forum is by the sheer number of upvotes. New posts appear every ti I refresh the page, but the most eye-catching one is a moderator pinned post with a title in bold red font.
"Things To Know Before You Play!!" - Elves_or_Nothin
I click on the post and am presented with so basic information about the ga.
1. You start with nothing. NOTHING!!
2. The aim of the ga is to create a city how do you do it? IDK!
3. The world is 10 tis as large as the earth and incorporates fantasy elents (as shown in the trailer) LIKE ELVES! HOT BLONDE BUSTY ELVES!
4. Players are spawned in random locations
5. There is NO inventory like other gas
6. There are NPC humans in the world which I assu you can befriend or maybe enslave?
7. Watch the trailer. IT'S AMAZING!
I will post more when more information cos!!
I close it and go back to the ho screen to watch the trailer following Elves_or_Nothin's advice. The video loads and I put on my virtual reality helt to get the full experience as I wait for the trailer to start. The trailer starts from the perspective of the player observing the environnt and listening to the sounds of nature.
I see the clear blue skies, the erald grass and the soft whispers of the wind fill my ears. It feels like standing in the middle of the North Arican prairies as the sun washes over my body and the breeze brushing against my skin but then the scene changes.
Hot, damp forests with large trees and rushing rivers. I hear an unfamiliar language and the neighs of horses as I see two females riding past close enough to touch. Their skin, spotless, with long pointy ears and waist-length platinum blonde hair. Their mounts were white horses with blue eyes and a silver mane and at the top of their heads was a golden horn. Just as I was about to reach my hand out to touch them the scene changes again.
The salty breeze and the raging waves crashing on the nearby cliffs as I see twin giant waterspouts similar to the ones that occur near Nassau, Bahamas only larger and fiercer. I can feel the force of the winds pulling into the storm together with various kinds of debris, trees, boulders, and tips of waves bending to the storm. I hear a loud rumble next to and I look up only to see rocks both large and small co crashing down the cliff but before it lands onto the scene changes and I see the interior of a cave.
Silence, except for the sound of breathing. No wind, no rain or water, no footsteps. Just breathing. Then the sound of a creature inhaling. Soft and gentle at first, then aggressive and fast only to stop, and then the heavy stomping of a creature echos in the cave and like its breathing, starts low and slow gradually picking up the pace until I can see large yellow eyes and jet black serpent-like slits in the depths of the cave. Crimson red scales, human arm-length claws, large spikes around the skull, and folded wings dashed past .
I see the edges of flas lick around its mouth ready to burst out and wreak havoc on the world and with a final step outside of the cave it spreads its massive wings larger than its body and raises its head towards the sky. The unbearable heat, the strength of the winds, and the loud roar created by the creature were the end of the trailer.
"Interesting, the realism in the ga is definitely top-tier. Elves, dragons, and I bet there will also be the classic goblins and orcs even though it isn't shown in the trailer. What's more, is the environnt I can be spawned in any sort of bio from plains to deserts to mountains and a snowy field. It's going to be interesting to see what I can do and what other players can do as well. Well then, let's get ready - it's almost midnight."
I turned off the computer and while I waited for the server to go online I took a shower and quickly ate so instant noodles. Once I had food in my stomach I lay down on my bed and placed the virtual reality helt on. I look at my ceiling for the last ti before I dive into the new world and right on cue 00:00 midnight my vision blurs before being replaced by golden light, fluffy clouds, and a girl. Not that much taller than but with the addition of white angel wings and a halo. She looks at with her blue eyes and smiles. She pushes her white hair to the side and speaks to with her soft angelic voice.
