"Game Introduction"
"Galaxy Ranger" is composed of a setting that mixes science fiction and fantasy styles. The game screen is presented with cartoon-style 3D graphics, and has There are vast and diverse scenes, and the adventure stages of each planet across the stars have their own ecology, environment and culture. The battle is carried out in real-time action, and uses seamless loading technology that allows players to not experience any interruptions in the game due to loading. All movements and scene changes can be carried out smoothly. The male and female protagonists of the game are respectively voiced by well-known Japanese new-generation actors Hiroshi Tamaki and Aya Ueto.
The game has very rich and exquisite actions such as killing, striking, leaping and long-distance attacks, but its operating system is actually not complicated or difficult to understand at all. All combat actions can be performed through simple The key actions are gorgeously realized. Special scenes such as powerful special moves interspersed everywhere and combos with partners also allow players to experience the tension and presence of real-time combat at every moment. One of the more unique features of this game is that characters that are not operated by themselves also have the ability to think independently and can move and fight while thinking about the battle situation. Regardless of whether they are fighting or moving, the group of characters who are constantly speaking can even suggest the use of certain techniques or props according to the battle situation to gain an advantage. Players can feel the taste of "adventures with living partners".
The vast Milky Way that exists in this work, all the scenery that extends from near to far in front of the protagonist's eyes, whether it is streets, villages, roads, natural landscapes, buildings, or distant waterfalls or rocks, Everything the eye sees is not simply background, but is something tangible that you can climb on or break into. In addition, such a luxurious environment has not slowed down the pace of the game. The most frequently criticized RPG games, the excessive and long loading actions, have been magically expelled. Players can enjoy the game without any interruption or need. Have been waiting for a refreshing adventure.
"Game Features"
This is the third work published by SCE and produced by Level-5 after "Dark Cloud" and "Dark Chronicles". We can see many features of previous games, such as the menu interface, paper doll dressing system, etc., so in a sense it can be regarded as a sequel to "Dark Chronicles".
The game still uses the cartoon rendering technology that Level-5 is best at. After combining the two different styles of fantasy and science, the game well represents the planets and worlds in different cultural development eras. out. Although the game uses a method of stepping on landmines to encounter enemies, the entire battle is very action-oriented. Players can operate the characters to perform a variety of actions including jumping. Those companions who have not been operated by the players will make "proposals" to the players based on the situation on the battlefield. After accepting the proposals, they will respond with corresponding actions. In addition, since the battle takes place on the spot, you can also escape freely regardless of the enemy's presence. The whole process is fun and smooth.
This game claims to use "seamless reading" technology - the game may be in the state of reading the disk at any time, so that no matter when entering or leaving a room, entering a battle or a cutscene event, the screen will switch. It will be very smooth and fast, and players will hardly feel the loading time. The various elements of the game, such as fighting beetles and factory manufacturing, are so rich that it feels like you can’t get enough of it. However, Level-5 is probably not experienced enough. The maze is too monotonous and long, and the system operation is also complicated. This is the biggest shortcoming of the game.
The first two works "Dark Cloud" and "Dark Chronicles" developed by LEVEL5 are both ARPGs. Playing them even feels like action games, which is very refreshing. Therefore, a lot of action elements have been added to this RG. But when it comes to combat, there are many restrictions that only typical RPGs have. Therefore, in RG's combat system, it is no longer clear which category it should be classified into more accurately. This is what makes LEVEL5 unique. Because the player can only control one character in battle, and other characters are controlled by the computer, in the setting of combat options, what skills are frequently used and can form a favorable cooperation with the character controlled by the player. need to be taken into account. Because the encounter rate is very high and the maze is very large, there is no room for sloppiness in the selection of combat skills and the use of recovery items.
"System Analysis"
1. Skill System
In RG, different characters have a variety of different skills, which must be installed on the corresponding skill chart. Only by picking up the required props can you learn relevant skills. At this time, you can set the usable skills in the combat options and use them during the battle. Companions that are not controlled by the player will be automatically selected by the system to use their set skills.
2. Synthesis system
After the end of Chapter 2, through a specific plot, the player can get a toad that can synthesize weapons, and give the toad the weapon that meets the requirements. Swallow it to synthesize more powerful weapons. Since synthesizing weapons has certain corresponding requirements, different synthesis methods will have an impact on the synthesis results. It is best for players to read the relevant teaching instructions and the results obtained after synthesis before making a judgment.
3. Factory development
New parts or products can be developed by using materials that meet the requirements, processed by electrical instruments, and then put into the synthesis machine at the same time. The instruments have different auxiliary functions. Like the weapon synthesis system, they require corresponding materials and methods to produce products that meet their own requirements.
4. Insect Breeding
Through the process of catching and breeding, players can obtain insects with special abilities such as fighting. They can take these insects to participate in competitions, which is equivalent to a mini game. . But the process in between is not simple. Like other systems in RG, players need to spend a lot of time studying. Find the pattern.
5. Bounty Hunters
In the world of RG, there are organizations such as the Hunter Guild. Players can collect bounties and improve themselves by defeating specific types of enemies and some BOSSs. Ranking, so this is a combat-related system. After completion, the enemy list and detailed information will be displayed in a list. Players can use this list to see what tasks they have missed.
