316: Section 316

The person referred to as A Shui shook his head from his seat.

"I got a beta test qualification for League of Legends before, and I'm going to try it today."

Listening to these words,

his friend beside him couldn't help but speak.

"No matter what, this game definitely can't compare to Dota."

"Instead of playing this game, you might as well play a few more rounds of Dota."

"The CG is well done, but the game content might not be."

After the person beside him finished speaking, A Shui also murmured.

"Although I'm very interested in MOBA games, and I've reached the top ten in the Dota national server ladder, this game always fails to capture my interest."

"Simply put,"

"I just don't find Dota that fun."

"If it weren't for Dota being the only somewhat interesting MOBA PC game on the market, I probably wouldn't have played it long ago."

The various settings and competitive nature of MOBA games were indeed A Shui's favorite.

But Dota felt like scratching an itch through a boot to A Shui; he always felt something was missing.

So, after learning about the existence of League of Legends,

he directly applied for beta test qualification, wanting to test how the game was.

And listening to A Shui's words, the person beside him shook his head.

"Then I'll start a round first."

"The time for this one round should be enough to let you know that this League of Legends definitely can't surpass Dota."

"Although you don't find Dota that fun, this game is already the pinnacle of MOBA games; no other game can possibly surpass it."

After speaking,

this person started a game of Dota.

And A Shui was just entering the game interface of League of Legends.

After casually choosing an English nickname, the game directly entered the novice tutorial, with no skip button.

Seeing this, A Shui wasn't too surprised.

Honor of Kings was also like this before, not directly setting a skip tutorial button.

During the game loading process, A Shui also couldn't help but take a deep breath, praying that this game could truly meet his expectations.

Although he couldn't articulate what kind of MOBA game he wanted, he could at least be sure it wasn't Dota.

"I hope the graphics are at least bearable."

A Shui's concerns were not unfounded, as many companies that had never made PC games often had subpar graphics for their first PC game, let alone this being a domestic game.

The graphics after Dota's upgrade were actually quite perfect.

Although A Shui didn't expect League of Legends' graphics to be comparable to Dota, he just hoped they were at least bearable.

When he returned to Magic City before, he actually met two people playing the earliest test version of League of Legends in an internet café. At that time, the game's graphics were actually quite ordinary, but now with a large-scale beta, it should have improved a lot.

At that time, after A Shui heard those two people say they were playing the test version, he went home and searched, wanting to apply himself, but found that League of Legends didn't even have a beta test at that time. Only then did he realize that those two must have been internal employees.

And as A Shui's words fell, the game officially entered the novice tutorial interface.

Instantly,

the true in-game graphics of League of Legends finally appeared before him.

Looking at the dazzling graphics in front of him, A Shui was stunned for a moment, then immediately let out a sigh of relief.

The current graphics of League of Legends were already much better than when he last saw them. After a long period of refinement and optimization, the graphics of this game were no worse than Dota.

At least in terms of graphics, A Shui was no longer worried.

The next thing to pay attention to was:

Was this game truly the MOBA game he wanted, and was it really that fun?

And when Wang Mo was creating League of Legends, he directly launched an upgraded version of the graphics and map, not using the original game map from the very beginning of League of Legends.

The novice tutorial also underwent some changes.

At the same time,

when the game entered the novice tutorial, A Shui found that he was directly in the mid lane position, having already selected a hero.

In the river channels on both sides, there were four hero portraits waiting for him to choose.

And the game prompted:

He could first try the skills of these heroes, then choose one for the official novice tutorial. To choose a hero, he could right-click to move to the corresponding position.

Each different hero corresponded to the characteristics of different positions.

The lane assignments of League of Legends also appeared here.

When the mouse moved over different heroes, their approximate lane names would also appear.

"Top Lane, Jungle, Mid Lane, ADC, Support."

"Did the novice tutorial directly bring out the iconic characters for each position?"

After murmuring to himself,

A Shui also tried the skills of these heroes and simply understood that the roles of these heroes were indeed all different.

A few minutes later.

After trying out the skills of all the heroes, A Shui finally moved his mouse to a certain character.

Then he slowly said,

"I still like this kind of ranged hero that primarily relies on basic attacks for output the most."

"This kind of hero, I think it's called ADC, right?"

After the hero selection was complete,

A Shui also officially clicked next.

Then,

the hero he chose officially appeared in the blue side's fountain, and with the voice prompt 'Welcome to League of Legends' popping up, the game officially entered the novice tutorial.

Looking at the scene before him,

A Shui couldn't help but take a deep breath.

"Then let's do this."

.

In the time that followed,

during the novice training process, A Shui also adapted to all the content of the entire League of Legends game.

After following the novice prompts and destroying the first outer turret in the bot lane,

A Shui already had a basic understanding of this game.

"Like Honor of Kings, this game also has no denial or trees, but it also has bushes where you can hide."

"The difference between this game and Dota is indeed very large."

"Instead of saying it's a simplified version of Dota, it's more like a more complex PC version of Honor of Kings, but its essence is completely different from these two games, forging its own style."

"Conversely, Honor of Kings actually bears some resemblance to this game."

"Interesting."

During the game, the light in A Shui's eyes continuously grew.

Although this was just a novice training,

he already vaguely felt that this game was indeed the MOBA PC game he had been waiting for, even though he had only just started playing it.

A Shui then quickly completed the novice training.

He officially began his first game in League of Legends.

After officially starting the game,

A Shui's expression became increasingly excited, because in this official match, he already felt that the gameplay and fun of League of Legends were far greater than Dota.

Before that,

he had still been somewhat worried about this game, fearing that League of Legends would not be able to surpass Dota.
