Chapter 151.1 \n<h1>Chapter 151: Character Games In a Nutshell Part 1</h1>\n
In games like Galaxia Heroes: Chaos the competitive elements are, in a nutshell, extravagant and completely unnecessary. In games like that the bread and butter is the unique sense of experience you get from playing Heroes and Villains.
When it comes to the Galaxia series, it is not the original series but rather a series of comic books adapted into a game. A game where you could jump from building to building like a true Hero or commit heinous crimes like a true Villain would. It was that kind of experience this game was offering.
And it is only now that doing things like that became possible, all thanks to the technology that became advanced enough to make that happen. Before that, the options given to Heroes and Villains alike were severely limited.
ăBut if it wasnât for ShanFro, this world wouldnât be born in the first place.ă
ShangriLa Frontier, a true and utter Paradigm Shift when it comes to the world of gamingâŚâŚ I donât know to what extent the developers of Galaxia Heroes: Chaos were leaning on it, but it is an undeniable fact that they managed to create something which wasnât able to be realized ever before.
In other words, the players werenât only using the skin of their characters in order to play. They needed to become their characters, either Heroes or Villains. A true Role-Play. Thatâs the premise of this game. You cannot hope to survive in Chaos City by merely pretending. You must truly become one of its denizens.\n
ăBecause a Heroic Gauge is needed to secure the cube, I need a way to efficiently fill it upâŚâŚ Now, how should I go on about thatâŚ..?ă
Role Playing. An act that lets you fully immerse yourself into the world of the game and actually become the character you are playing as.
ăIn other words, for Galaxia fans this game is truly a Godly game.ă
ăItâs not like I donât like you or that I have something against youâŚâŚ But I must see it with my own eyes! How good you actually are!ă
Suddenly, a dual wielding samurai looking like a hybrid of human and a plant confronts me on the main street. If I remember correctly, this characterâs name isâŚâŚ Yggdryer, I believe?
He was once a Hero, but after being abducted by a mad scientist and being experimented upon, he was remodeled into the form that he is today, and became a Villain who can control plants in various ways. As for his gameplay mechanicsâŚâŚ
ăA dull character specializing in setting up traps and counters, right?ă\năIâll show youâŚâŚ that the forty percent win rate against Kei of yours is nothing but a fluke!ă
In the next moment, a âTrap Seedâ that was planted in the wall of the nearby building goes off and thereâs a thick vine of ivy coming my way in order to immobilize me.
ăSweet, sweetâŚâŚ!!ă
I happen to know the gist of the way in which this character tends to work. It is an attack that can be activated at will by the player, but because of that it can only attack in a straight line. However, if you let it hit you, youâll become rooted for a moment or two and will be open for any kinds of attacks.
There were currently two vines coming my way, one aiming at my ankle and one aiming at my neck. It was troublesome to some extent, but it was nothing that a good old shift of position wouldnât take care of.
I bend my body and jump just like a rabbit in order to avoid the attacks that were coming my way. After landing I dash using the momentum I managed to gain, getting out of the way of a thorny whip that suddenly sprung up from Natsume-sanâs body.\n\năNow come and get itâŚâŚ!!ă
If my opponent was Pencilgton, she would have surely anticipated such a move from me and prepared some nasty trap in advance. If it was indeed like that, I would have been helplessly defeated without being able to actually do anything about it. But even so, I would have been able to somehow turn that around and emerge victorious for sure. But this time around my opponent was a professional gamer, so I needed to stay vigilant at all times.
Yggdryerâs special attack is a deadly close-range technique that sadly I couldnât be bothered to remember the name of. I only know that it fires a thorny spear into the ground that then spreads around like a circle. Now, everything boils down to how Natsume-san decides to use that attack. From then on out, I can plan my next actions accordingly.
ăItâs not the power I need to watch out for, but rather the scope of itâŚâŚ!ă
The height of this attack is three meters at best, so the most logical conclusion would be to simply jump over it. Because no matter what, the only solution to escape it was to go up, everywhere else would spell a certain doom for me.
