Why I'm Avoiding One of the Main Features of Valhalla Knights 3
After more than 90 hours, I'm still uncomfortable with Valhalla Knights 3.
"What
Valhalla Knights 3
Valhalla Knights 3 , jail - buy and sell the loot equipment and run their game, and get quests to collect X number section and from the type Z enemy various rewards. Overall, this is a very standard RPG.
is like an MMO whose plot is very fragile, and ranks second in the grinding. There are a number of different types of characters that you can switch between characters, each with their own level of play fighting, while there is a bit of a learning curve is a little further rhythmically the attack button to perform combos and pray that you have not misjudged the strength of the enemy. If all this sounds boring, it probably is, but the game does a great job of rewarding the player enough to play me. The leveling system is very addictive and it's probably why I've been grinding away for over 90 hours.
Each installation in the red zone has several suppliers, all of whom are women. To perform a transaction with a seller, you must pay a fee, as a Japanese hostess club. Although no difference in the sale items or missions offered by each provider in the Red Light District, the supplement varies. If you spend a certain amount of money to a supplier, you get to participate in what is called "Sexy Time", which according to the game you can feel the seller, while the owner of the establishment "is return. "Press the right places, and sometimes you will have access to a single object and boost your relationship with your character.
My first reaction to this game system was immediately rejected. I never found a call to the host / hostess Japanese clubs, and how the female characters are objectified in the Red Light district system felt kind of thing that Fox News would immediately jump into a test like why games are destroying civilization as we know it.
However, the use of the red zone is not required and you can remove the game without having to use the facilities at all. This, plus the fact that the combat / leveling was so addictive, that's why I still play.
play the game, but avoiding parts of the system that made me think that I found unpleasant. Although it is classified a bit restrictive ("contains material which may be appropriate for a public sixteen years or so"), the fact that games like
Valhalla Knights 3 are released into the circulation is something of a reflection of how the host club / hostess is rooted in Japanese culture.
