"You can stop right there, you're not any better than me!" Ben scoffed, but he opened the shop on his side too.
He could buy things now.
But he couldn't decorate yet.
And he noticed that there were a lot of different kinds of things in the shop.
It covered all the games that Nebula Games had made up to now.
But he found that he couldn't get a lot of the things, because he hadn't gotten the right achievements in the games.
Looking at all the stuff, he quickly spent the 10,000 gold coins the system had given him.
Then he bought some more with tokens, because Nebula Games had given back a lot of tokens before, and he had bought almost all of Nebula Games' games when they first came out. As for third-party games, he honestly bought the ones he was interested in right away. He knew that some of the discounted ones he bought would mostly just be added to his collection, so he just didn't buy them. He still had a lot of tokens left at this point.
Now he could use them to buy these decorations, and there were also coupons, which was a great deal.
"Hey... what's this skill tree doing here?" Ben suddenly noticed something.
Besides the shop screen, there was a skill tree on his side.
But when he clicked on it, most of it was just question marks.
The only thing that showed was an icon that looked like an eye, and it looked a little creepy. He didn't know what it was.
"I don't know, it probably hasn't been updated yet. I think this Nebula World will keep getting updates in the future," Zack said, amazed at the scenery around him.
The graphics are just as good as "Uncharted"!
"Stop exaggerating, let's go check out the VR theme. I wonder if there's any new content," Ben suggested.
When the VR theme first came out, it was completely different from the other game companies' ones. He had been obsessed with raising pigs and farming for a while, but after the novelty wore off, even though he heard that Nebula Games had kept updating it, he basically just logged in occasionally to harvest his crops.
But now that Nebula World had appeared, plus this so-called plane adventure, it felt like a sci-fi movie.
Even though Ben felt that this thing was probably just a trial version of the game, it didn't stop him from being interested.
"Which one should we go to first?" Zack didn't mind.
"'Warcraft', probably. All the other themes have games, but Boss Lucas never ported this thing to VR, but he made a VR theme, it's like his own child!" Ben complained.
"RTS games aren't really suitable for VR," Zack said.
"That's true," Ben nodded.
Soon, the two of them stepped into the portal, and the starry sky appeared again. But what surprised Ben was that he could see Zack's character next to him.
Before, he was in the first person and couldn't see what he looked like, but now he could see through Zack. A circle of white light surrounded Zack and took him through countless stars, and finally they arrived at one of the planets.
Finally, two beams of light landed at the gate of Stormwind City, and a prompt box appeared in front of Zack and Ben.
[To prevent the world's consciousness from discovering and expelling you, please choose an identity to integrate into the world]
Then a series of options appeared in front of Ben and Zack.
They represented various classes and races, but there weren't many to choose from. There were only the three basic classes: mage, warrior, and priest.
"Whoa, there's a race system and a class system!" Ben was surprised.
This wasn't there before. Before, this Stormwind City theme was just a tourist scene, but now you can choose a race and a class?
Does that mean there's combat content too? Zack next to him was also surprised.
As for the introduction of the world's consciousness, the two of them didn't care, because it was just a setting.
Similarly, if it was "Uncharted," wearing a medieval-like armor would also be very strange.
But if it was forced, it would make players feel a little annoyed. Why can't I enter like this?
"Which class did you choose?" Ben asked Zack, curious. He had chosen a warrior himself.
There were four skills: Heroic Strike, Sunder Armor, Charge, and Taunt.
He glanced at the descriptions. They were basically attack, reduce defense, charge and stun, and attract monster aggro, four skills with different characteristics.
"Definitely a mage! It's so cool!" Zack said.
"Tch, little mage, if we could PVP, I'd chop you up with one strike!" Ben said disdainfully.
Think of Grommash Hellscream in "Warcraft," how fierce he is!
It's just a pity that there doesn't seem to be any PVP.
Ben and Zack were chatting, but they didn't know that the setting of Stormwind City was actually some experiments that Lucas was doing, including combat and skill setting tests.
As for the content, there are indeed a lot of things to do in Stormwind City. For example, players can learn about some of the stories on Azeroth.
Including being able to do a simple dungeon, fight monsters and earn some gold coins, and then return to Nebula World to buy decorative items.
Of course, there is a weekly limit on how much you can get online. You get a lot at once, but players can't farm it repeatedly.
Mainly, the current Nebula World, including these main themes, Lucas is more giving players some Easter egg-like content.
It's not a complete form.
As for spending money... cough, the server costs money too.
And even if you don't spend money, it's still relatively easy to get things. It's not like you can only buy them by spending money.
In addition, the coupons are a collaboration with the merchandise, after all, the official figures often have various discounts.
Currently, Nebula World is still in a trial stage for Lucas. The current level of technology doesn't support it yet, so this is more of an experiment. When other game companies want to make similar metaverses in the future, Nebula Games will already have a big advantage.
Secondly, there is a more important thing, which is that some new content is hidden inside.
Wandering around Stormwind City, Zack and Ben quickly found the area where the combat content was located.
Next to the mage district, by the canal, there was a heavily guarded prison. After approaching, they could talk to Jailer Thelwater to receive quests.
"They've had riots before, but this time something's not right. There seems to be some evil and terrifying force that's driving them crazy, and some of them have even turned into beasts... no, crueler and more terrifying than orcs. Warriors, can you help me suppress this riot and find out the reason?" With Jailer Thelwater's worried words, Ben and Zack accepted a quest.
