Game Design: Is it possible? CaiGou

Wutong Game Company held a new game launch conference today. Jiang Zhihao personally took the initiative and talked about it in a speechless manner.

As a result, after a new game press conference ended, the player group who was most looking forward to Wutong Game Company's release of "Kingdom of Hegemony" turned out to be not fans of Wutong Game Company, nor fans of farming management, but the Yellow Turban Army of Taiping Road.

Who do you think you can talk to to reason with this?

In this situation, anyone with a discerning eye knows that once [Kingdom Clash] is released, it will definitely attract a sniper attack from the Taiping Road.

But the problem is that Jiang Zhihao has already conclusively stated the release date of "Kingdom Clash" at the new game press conference.

[Farming Lord] is only a low-cost game, so it can be forgiven for losing to the DLC of Stardew Valley.

However, [Kingdom Clash] is the annual major production of Sycamore Games. As a result, they were afraid of the release of Stardew Valley DLC, and then changed the release date...

Isn't that a slap in the face in public?

That’s not something that should be told to the entire gaming community and the entire gaming industry.

Is Jiang Zhihao afraid of Taiping Road or Cai Gou?

For Jiang Zhihao, a man with a strong self-esteem, doing this is no less than slapping him in front of his face.

If he really gives in, can he still work in the gaming industry in the future?

To put it crudely -

If he really does this, he will not fart loudly in the future.

Painting a tiger is not like a dog. Jiang Zhihao forced himself into this situation. He seemed to have a choice, but in fact he had no choice.

After a night of tangles, Jiang Zhihao decided to give Cai Gou a hard fight. "Kingdom Contest" will be released at 10am today as planned.

According to Wutong Game Company’s official account, after the news was announced, the Yellow Turban Army rushed over after hearing the news, acting more like a true fan than a true fan.

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuusuuuuu, Captain Jiang, you are serious, I will cry to death!"

"One night, ten whole hours. Do you know how I spent these ten hours?"

"Thank you Captain Jiang for your strong support. Woo hoo hoo, [Ridgeside Village] will be on sale today. I can't wait to give you one!"

"Captain Jiang, I support you mentally. We must keep up our efforts and create greater glories. We will try to release a new game in a week. I believe that the old thief's Stardew Valley DLC is still in stock."

"Hahahaha, you're upstairs, you're like no one else!"

Amid the expectations of countless players, [Kingdom Clash] was released on time at 10 a.m., and [Ridgeside Village] was released simultaneously.

Upon seeing this, Wutong Game Company did not give up. It continued to promote and advertise aggressively, and even wanted to recruit a group of anchors to conduct promotional live broadcasts.

It's a pity that no matter whether they are big anchors or small anchors, they all firmly refuse to cooperate.

If on weekdays, anchors of all sizes can accept promotions and make money while playing games, then it will be great.

But now...

Who doesn’t know that Wutong Game Company is competing with Cai Gou?

The butt determines the head. If the anchor doesn’t take sides at this time, when will he?

Who would do this to ruin their own jobs just for the income from this collaboration?

There are so many good games in Taiping Road that cannot be broadcasted by broadcasters. Although the anchors all know that the old thief is not a small-minded person, but what if it happens?

What if the old thief is really angry at this time and directly connects to the platform so that he cannot live broadcast the Taipingdao game? Then why do you think he is a shit as a game anchor?

Furthermore, it’s not like Taipingdao didn’t make some moves. Stardew Valley’s DLC [Richside Village] was released at the same time. Instead of accepting the promotion from Sycamore Games, it would be better to live broadcast the development of [Richside Village].

The game area anchors unanimously refused, which caught Wutong Game Company by surprise.

I can’t spend this money even if I want to…

The more fans the anchors have, the more determined they will refuse. However, there are a few young anchors who are brave and willing to accept promotions, but what can they do with such a few fans?

Douyu live broadcast platform, game area.

With a messy chicken coop on his head and two thick dark circles on his face, Wu-Se looked like a panda that had just rolled on the grass.

In the past week, Wuwo has been working non-stop day and night, and Krypton Liver broadcasts the [SVE] archive of Stardew Valley.

After finally achieving 100% picture book achievement, Wutong Game Company announced the release of "Kingdom Clash" before even taking a day off.

Immediately afterwards, Taiping Road released [Ridgeside Village] without saying a word.

I couldn’t laugh or cry when I saw [Richside Village] released, so I could only choose to continue developing [Richside Village].

In the live broadcast room.

The water friends saw that Wuwo was downloading the DLC of [Richside Village] and explained that he would continue to open up [Richside Village]. Everyone was trying to persuade Wuwo to take a rest.

"If you ask me, no one, who doesn't know the name of Mayor Cyber ​​of Pelican Town? You can understand it if you take a few days off."

"Yes, yes, look at this week, who has cleared [SVE] besides you?"

"You have dark circles under your eyes. To be honest, I'm afraid you'll die suddenly."

Wuwo smiled when he heard this: "My dark circles haven't faded since I entered high school. It's just that recently because of the live broadcast and the chicken coop hair, it looks a little deeper."

"I am at most a cyber candidate for the mayor of Pelican Town now. I still need to work hard to be able to do that——"

"Brothers, the liver is finished!"

I will re-create a new archive. This archive only contains [Richside Village]. This way, you can avoid the interference of [SVE] and better experience the plot of [Richside Village].

Of course, there is another reason for doing this, and that is to protect the liver.

After all, he knew how big [SVE] was.

If the two DLCs really come together, even if Cyber ​​Zhao Zilong is covered in liver, he can't stand it.

I clicked to enter the new game, and the usual face-squeezing process was all randomized. Name, preferences, gender, and farm were all the same.

In order to better explore [Richside Village], Wuwo did not skip the opening animation.

Like [SVE], [Ridgeside Village] has not made any changes in the opening animation. It is still a letter from Grandpa Cyber ​​on his deathbed. The protagonist is still unable to bear the overtime life in Qiao's company and chooses Rush to Stardew Valley.

Get off the bus at the bus station, receive Robin, come to the farm, and talk to Lewis. Everything is exactly the same as the original version of Stardew Valley, without any change.

【Saving...】

[Your progress has been saved. 】

The opening animation ended. Wuwo woke up directly on the wooden board of the old house. Looking around, there was no change in the layout of the house or the placement of furniture. He raised his eyes and looked at the information interface.

【Monday 1st】

【AM: 6:00】

[Gold Coin: 500]

Season, time, gold coins, these three values ​​​​have not changed.

Without me:"???"

Water friend: "???"

ah? No, why isn't there any change?

According to the development of [SVE], shouldn't I get off the coach, talk to Robin and Lewis, and introduce the differences and changes of this DLC?

I was wondering, I didn’t skip the opening animation, so why didn’t the opening animation and the opening plot change at all?

Something is wrong, 12 out of 10 is wrong.

When something goes wrong, there must be a monster...

I carefully checked the house that Grandpa Cyber ​​left for me, and found nothing that was different from the original version of Stardew Valley.

Immediately afterwards, I came outside the house. The farm was overgrown with weeds, trees were growing lushly, and gravel was everywhere. It was still the layout of a standard farm, and it was also no different from the original Stardew Valley.

He went back to the house and opened the newbie gift package. He got 15 parsnip seeds just like the original version of Stardew Valley, without any changes.

This confused Wuwo. He scratched his head and looked at the screen and asked: "Brothers, when I created a new file, did I load [Richside Village]? Is it possible that I didn't load it?"

In the live broadcast room, the water friends were also puzzled, but they were still very clear about this. After all, in full view of everyone, the operation of loading [Richside Village] without me was still seen by everyone.

"You're definitely loaded! There's no doubt about it!"

"Yes, I saw it too, it's loaded."

"That's strange, what about the opening scene of [Ridgeside Village]? Why didn't you see it at all?"

"Is there a possibility that our current farm is in [Ridgeside Village]?"

"Impossible. Didn't the old thief tell you the route to Ridgeside Village? Who still remembers what the old thief said at the Stardew Valley DLC live broadcast conference yesterday?"

"I remember what the old thief said - [Richside Village] requires the player to go all the way north through the bus station, find the aerial cable car to [Richside Village], and sit on the aerial cable car for a while. You can reach the cliff at the end of [Richside Village] and then go left through a stone road to reach the village of [Richside Village].”

"That's right, we can't be in [Richside Village] now, otherwise why would the old thief tell us the route to [Richside Village]?"

Wuwo did not hesitate and said: "In that case, let's take a walk according to the method given by the old thief. Let's go to the bus station first. Maybe we need to reach [Richside Village] to trigger the opening plot."

Anyway, this save is the first day of spring, and it is the land reclamation stage of [Richside Village], and the game can be rolled back and restarted, so the game of racing against time in the early stage is not in a hurry until the players understand the truth.

I didn't do any farm work, didn't even plant fifteen parsnip seeds, and walked directly to the bus stop outside the farm while it was still early.

Who would have thought that people would look for him thousands of times, and suddenly looking back, he would find that person in a dimly lit place.

As soon as I walked out of Cao Mei's farm, the opening plot that I had been looking for so hard to find appeared uninvited.

When Wuwo was walking on a country road and was about to rush to the bus station, he met Lewis chatting with an old woman near the station.

Lewis looked distressed and said to the old woman in front of him: "Shh... Leni, don't be so loud. What should you do if someone hears you? They might find me and you..."

Leni, who was wearing a tan jacket and full of silver hair, waved her hands and said with a smile: "Calm down, Liu Liu, no one cares, anyway... I have to go."

"There's still a lot of paperwork to go through, and by the way, it's so kind of you to leave all this stuff with me."

"Stop calling me that!" Lewis said angrily, "And you've been delaying. It's your own fault."

Leni was not afraid of boiling water, so she shrugged and said, "No way, Liu Liu, this is my benefit as your eldest sister. Anyway, I have to go, and I have to catch up before the cable car is full."

Although Lewis was full of complaints, he still showed his concern for Leni, the eldest sister at this moment: "Pay attention to safety on the road."

The opening plot of "Ritchieside Village" is different from that of Stardew Valley and "SVE".

In the original version of Stardew Valley, the protagonist rushes to Stardew Valley for the first time after reading the letter left by his grandfather.

In [SVE], the protagonist came in advance after checking the letter left by his grandfather, and then left midway due to something else, and returned to Stardew Valley again after many days.

But in the opening entry point of [Ridgeside Village], after the player came to Stardew Valley for one night for the first time, early the next morning, he met Lewis and Leni whispering. While highlighting Leni’s eldest sister identity, it also introduces [Ridgeside Village].

Wuwo nodded heavily and said: "Old thief has worked hard. Two large-scale expansion DLCs will be released one week apart. The entry points of the plot can be completely different, allowing players to have a novel experience. This time I give the old thief a big thumbs up." Thumbs up."

Friends in the live broadcast room also suddenly realized it and posted comments one after another.

"Emotions, Lewis's nickname is Liu Liu?"

"Hahahaha, it's easy to make a living with a bad name, and it's easy to make a living as soon as you hear the name Liu Liu."

"No wonder Lewis secretly met Leni at the bus stop early in the morning. Lewis is the mayor of Pelican Town in name only. As soon as Liu Liu's nickname Leni was shouted out, the villagers in the town heard him. His majesty has been wiped out."

"The entry point of the opening plot of [Richside Village], in my opinion, surprises me more than [SVE]!"

"Go on, keep watching, the opening scene isn't over yet!"

On the country road next to the bus stop, Lewis saw Leni leave and turned around to return to Pelican Town, but found Wuwo standing aside. He suddenly looked flustered and shocked:

"Selfless?! Oh! Um...nice to meet you, so...how much did you hear?"

Wuwo said with a smile, hearing Lewis's nickname Liu Liu.

Lewis was ashamed and annoyed, and said loudly: "Ah! Leni!"

Seeing this, Lewis simply spread everything out and explained: "She is Leni, my eldest sister. She came over to submit last year's financial report for [Ridgeside Village] to me."

"What is [Richside Village]? Where is it?" Wuwo asked curiously.

Lewis slapped his forehead and said: "[Ridgeside Village]? Oh, your grandpa didn't tell you?"

"[Ridgeside Village] is our neighboring village on the mountain to the west. If you want to go, you can take the cable car there. That cable car is an engineering miracle. Who knows where they got the money to build it..." Lewis continued:

"I heard it's because there are people in [Ridgeside Village] who are close to the governor... Anyway, if you have time, you must go to [Ridgeside Village] and see part of their tourism revenue. Pelican Town, you know.”

Wuwo naturally nodded repeatedly to express his understanding. Lewis waved his hand and said: "I'd better go back to town. Goodbye, Wuwo."

[Ridgeside Village? 】

[I should go see it as soon as possible...]

The opening plot ends here, and Wu-Se, who returns to action, excitedly says:

"That's it, wonderful, wonderful, brothers, come with me to [Ridgeside Village] to learn more about it!"

After hearing this, netizens immediately flooded the live broadcast room with barrage——

"The liver is finished!"
