Build a game empire from scratch

"A lot of bosses! I can finally kill them!"

"What the hell is that chicken?"

"Wait, what's up with my sister?"

"Is it still possible to go to the former Luoyang City? There won't be only one public map left? I haven't finished visiting the brothels and kilns yet! As for the public map... I'm a little embarrassed!"

"Sorry for the fart! Our dormitory team building is now in the brothel!"

...

Players enthusiastically discuss the things they care about in various places such as comment areas, live broadcast rooms, and forums.

Especially the keyword "Cultivation of Immortals" appeared extremely frequently!

From the first chapter of "Chang'an", elements of cultivating immortals have appeared, and everyone knows that the old girl followed Li Bai to cultivate immortals.

But in the game, players don't have this opportunity. Even in the second chapter, experts from all walks of life gather in Chang'an to provide players with further enhancements, and there is still a long way to go before cultivating immortals.

At most, there are some props, which look a little like cultivating immortals.

And now, watching the battle between Xinxin and An Lushan in the trailer, it is obviously a battle between immortals and demons!

The aftermath of the collision between the two had already cut off the avenue leading to the imperial city from the urban area, turning it into a huge pit, and even Luoshui was diverted for it.

If you want to defeat such a strong and invincible boss, the player must not be too weak, right?

You can't let players use the power of a knight to fight against a demon-level opponent, right?

So, Chapter Three, Immortal Cultivation!

It's a sure thing!

Ayi and Super Tomato were speechless for a while watching the optimistic barrage of the water friends in the live broadcast room.

The main reason is that Yunmeng is really too badass. This trailer does not have any real combat demonstrations. It only has a "CG animation" of an NPC fighting a boss in the "past". This misleading tendency is too obvious!

See what these water friends are talking about?

[Cool tour]!

Ah Yi thought about his painful experience of being beaten by two bosses for seven hours. Just seeing these two words made his scalp numb and his whole body uncomfortable.

Nice tour?

For BOSS, it might be really cool!

Super Tomato's experience is deeper than that of A Yi.

Last night, Ah Yi led the team to fight in Pandora, but Super Tomato didn't have it. He still went offline early to promote the plot of "Dark Soul".

No head iron continued to head-to-head with the BOSS on Tianjie, but detoured to explore other directions.

Then……

Encountered more insidious mobs and traps!

Even because the number of deaths reached 250 times, a new function was unlocked: changing the text that appeared after death—that is, the blood-red word [death].

Only words can be changed, neither colors nor fonts can be changed.

Super Tomato was very confused, he couldn't understand at all: Why did Yunmeng add this function?

However, if he was confused, he still replaced the word [死] with another Chinese character that could make a sound——

【ah】!

Although they are a little speechless about the blind optimism of the water friends, but due to the confidentiality requirements, Super Tomato and Yi can only watch helplessly, and the water friends' understanding of "Dark Soul" is getting further and further away.

Some people even proposed the outrageous idea of ​​"pull all the bosses together and show off their operations".

The corners of their eyes twitched.

As for their previous hint that "the game is difficult", it has been completely regarded as a joke by the water friends:

"In order to keep it secret, you tried your best to deceive us by acting, but you were backstabbed by the officials the next day. You are also very miserable."

"That's right, I was skeptical yesterday. Two of them said it was difficult, and the other said it was beautiful. There is a problem at first glance! So it's all acting!"

"Especially Xia Yi, she laughed halfway through the performance, and she still expects to deceive us?"

...

A Yi sighed, and admitted: "Well, I really can't fool you, it's really cool."

Xia Yi also nodded and said, "Ah, that's right!"

After these most influential anchors said so, the rumors of "new games are difficult" faintly revealed by other inside players also quickly dissipated, and even changed the subject and began to say the opposite.

Soon, a realistic version of three people becoming a tiger began to be staged——

"Have you heard? "Chang'an: Soul of Darkness" is a cool action game, and several beta players in Daxia have admitted it!"

"Foreigners are bold. I saw some game media in France publicly broke the news, saying that "Dark Soul" is a mowing game! I'm not afraid that Yunmeng will sue them!"

"Let me tell you a big secret: my cousin is studying abroad in Daxia, and his residence is less than one kilometer away from Yunmeng. In the restaurant next to Yunmeng headquarters, I heard the members of the "Chang'an" development team say that they are looking forward to this game. Release it early because players will have a lot of fun playing it!"

"My seventh uncle's niece's son's classmate is studying in the UK. I heard from my classmate that someone went to Yunmeng headquarters to make friends with members of the development team, and I got a key piece of information from him: "Dark Soul" The development of it is to make players happy!"

...

Exporting to domestic sales, re-exporting, and then domestic sales... Coupled with the random forwarding of the media and self-media, the source of information is becoming more and more confusing and difficult to verify. Only news that is not true or false is repeated again and again, becoming more and more flooded, and even close to become a potential consensus.

This evolution of public opinion made Qin Songyun and Fan Rui's scalps tingle.

Especially during this process, the 3,000 closed beta players have gradually increased their character strength over time, and the frequency of death has gradually decreased. They feel a little uneasy about the difficulty survey after the closed beta...

Players seize every opportunity to make trouble, and never let others miss the hardships they have suffered... Qin Songyun is not unaware of this character that is seriously inclined to chaos and evil!

He will never forget the previous incident of "Hunter: Call of the Wild" [4 times the smell of shit]!

So on Sunday, Qin Songyun finally couldn't bear to contact Lin You, suggesting not to wait until the end of the internal test, but to conduct this questionnaire survey today or tomorrow.

He felt it was very necessary.

Now players are starting to think that "Dark Souls" is a mowing game!

If everyone enters the game with the psychological expectation of cultivating immortals, mowing grass, and being unparalleled, facing the current boss with this difficulty, tens of millions of players will be abused to the point of breaking their defenses that day!

But Lin You reassured him: "It's all right, don't worry."

"I'm going to post a demonstration video of the real machine later. Players will understand that this is not a game of cultivating immortals when they see the battle screen."

Lin You's words reassured Qin Songyun a little.

After the trailer of "Dark Soul" was released, the official account of "Chang'an" also entered the rhythm of promotion according to the usual practice - sending out some materials every day to keep the players' discussion hot.

However, the real machine demonstration that the players were most looking forward to was taken over by Lin You.

According to the original plan, the first real machine demonstration will not be released until next week.

Now because of the outrageously crooked predictions from the outside world, Lin You released it earlier this Sunday to correct the wrong impressions of the players, which is also a very reasonable adjustment.

And for Lin You, this was a rare act of working overtime on weekends!

This made Qin Songyun a little relieved.

However, this gratifying emotion came to an abrupt end after he saw the demonstration content released by Lin You——

[No medicine, no BUFF, no props, no injuries, quick killing King Kong ape X a street in Nanshi]

Qin Songyun looked at this title in a daze for a long time, and then squeezed out a voice from the depths of his soul:

"ah?"
