Cuttlefish's Online Journal on WeChat
Cuttlefish That Loves Diving, writer of the original novel, revealed more in his online journal on WeChat.
1. It is a mobile game. But like Genshin Impact, it will be available on multiple platforms.
2. It is an RPG.
3. A lot of contents have been completed, including the construction of The City of Backlund and some early levels.
4. The developer is a new company, but all team members are from famous game companies and have successful cases. They all read "Lord of the Mysteries" and love it.
5. At first the trailer seemed insipid, but when the background music was on, it felt just right. Incomprehensible language, the slightly insane and chaotic aria plus such visuals presented a really appropriate tone. And I love it.
