In the vast world of the Internet, a seemingly simple but magical stalk - "City or not City" has swept across major social platforms like a breeze, becoming a new standard for judging whether something is modern, interesting and fashionable. It all originated from a foreign blogger named "Bao Bao Xiong". His unique British Chinese pronunciation and humorous interactions have not only amused countless netizens, but also opened up a new way of expression.
The Birth of the City Meme
In a video, Bao Bao Xiong and his sister visited the Great Wall of Beijing. When his sister praised the magnificent scenery of the Great Wall, he asked in not very standard Chinese: "Sister, is the Great Wall beautiful?" After getting an affirmative answer, he continued to ask: "City or not?" His sister smiled and replied: "No City, ah." Bao Bao Xiong then explained: "There is no City in nature, there is no City at all." This mixed Chinese and English expression is both humorous and novel, and quickly became popular on the Internet.
"Animal King": City's game model
When people are buying new clothes, asking "Is it City?" is to explore whether the outfit is fashionable and comfortable enough; when enjoying delicious food, saying "Good City" is a compliment to the restaurant's elegant atmosphere and delicious food; and when immersed in a game, the phrase "Good City" represents the fun and appeal of the game.
When it comes to games that make people feel "City", I think "Zootopia" is undoubtedly a model. This game cleverly combines the two game modes of MOBA and eating chicken, with animals as the protagonists, showing a high degree of innovation and is deeply loved by players.
The arena of "Zoo King" is set in a zoo full of life. This is not just a simple simulation of a real zoo, but also a competitive arena full of strategies and surprises. On this stage, players are no longer cold characters or robots, but are transformed into rare animals from all over the world, such as the cunning of red foxes, the cuteness of giant pandas, the majesty of African lions... Each animal is an interesting escape from "city" life, allowing players to feel the charm and harmony of nature while competing.
There are more than 46 animal heroes in the game, 80% of which are globally protected or endangered species. These animals not only have different appearances, but also have unique personalities and movements and expressions, such as the cute red fox, the honest giant panda, the cool American bison, etc. They reject the stereotypes in the "city". Each character is vivid and fits the psychological state of young people. This design allows players to not only find partners with similar personalities when choosing characters, but also show their personal style in the game through their unique skills.
The animal skills in "Zootopia" are exquisitely designed and closely connected to the game terrain. For example, the fox's fast movement is like a fish in water on the vast grassland, the chameleon's camouflage is almost impeccable in the bushes, and the giraffe's perspective skill can penetrate all obstacles and gain insight into the overall situation. This deep interaction between skills and the environment breaks the separation of skills and terrain in traditional MOBA games, allowing players to experience more realistic and richer tactical changes in competition. At the same time, such a design also encourages players to adjust their strategies according to the characteristics of the terrain and realize a personalized tactical layout that is "not city-like".
"City is not City" is not only a popular Internet term, but also a cultural phenomenon. It encourages us to explore and appreciate new things in life with an open mind, whether it is natural scenery, fashion, food experience or game fun. As shown in "Animal King", the concept of City can be diverse. It can be the recognition of innovation, the respect for nature, and the pursuit of a better life. In this rapidly changing era, let us discover more "City" together and enjoy every surprise and happiness!
