Game Design: Is it possible? CaiGou

The Journey Cup competition, the tenth day.

A large number of anchors in the game area started broadcasting collectively in the morning.

Because today is the Journey Cup competition, the only opportunity for participating manufacturers to update their versions.

Compared with other small competitions, the version update nodes are different.

The Journey Cup will officially hold a version update live broadcast event at 10 o'clock this morning.

Everyone has been looking forward to it, counting down their fingers and waiting for the live broadcast to start.

Among this group of anchors -

There are anchors who continue to challenge the difficulty of the village ghost in Resident Evil Village.

There are anchors who explain the version updates of various manufacturers in the live broadcast room.

There are also anchors who perform fancy operations in the Resident Evil Village game.

Although Boss Yin did not get the first pass of the first round of the normal difficulty of Resident Evil Village.

But he relied on the characteristics of an old pervert to develop a fly swatter gameplay in the level of Lady Hachisha, taking advantage of Lady Hachisha's huge body and his familiarity with the castle layout.

The tall Lady Hachik walked up the stairs, while Boss Yin followed carefully behind her with a fly swatter in hand.

"Come on! Brothers, there is a fly on Lady Hachik's buttocks."

"Snap!"

The fly swatter hit Lady Hachik's buttocks directly and forcefully. With the blessing of 100% overall sense, the rebound touch from the fly swatter made the fans in the live broadcast room shout 666.

"Hey, I'm leaving, I'm slipping away, I'm slipping away."

When Lady Hachik reacted and turned around to chase Boss Yin, he took advantage of his familiarity with the castle layout and hid in the room.

"Come on, come on, are you chasing me?"

Compared with Lady Hachik's tall figure, the height of the door is only up to her waist, which means that Lady Hachik must bend down to enter the door.

Players can not only take advantage of this opportunity to feast their eyes again.

They can also attack Lady Hachik again when she bends down to pass through the door. How wonderful it is.

"Even if Liu Laolao saw it, she would say 666!"

"What the hell? Could it be that Boss Yin's Jinmen is actually the entrance?"

"Technology, you don't need to learn other technologies, but you must learn this core technology of Resident Evil!"

"Hahahaha, I love fly swatters so much!"

"Boss Yin's sassy operation really proves a saying - the level of players' development of Resident Evil Village is less than 1%."

When walking Lady Hachikage is as easy as walking a dog, the efficiency of players' strategy for Lady Hachikage will be further accelerated.

After more than an hour, it was already 9:30 in the morning.

Boss Yin temporarily quit the game, left the game cabin, returned to the gaming chair, and said:

"Brothers, let Lady Hachikage go for now. The live broadcast of the Journey Cup version update will start soon. Let's chat first."

The fans were also excited when they heard this, and asked Boss Yin if he had any inside information at the Liangshan site?

Boss Yin shrugged: "The question you asked is just to embarrass me, Fat Tiger. You know the rules of the game, so what inside information can I get?"

"But..." Boss Yin suddenly laughed and said, "I do have some inside information."

The netizens were shocked when they heard this, and urged Boss Yin to speak quickly.

"Rumors are not true!" Boss Yin first made a patch, and then said:

"I heard that the version update of Taipingdao is a DLC, but the specific content is not clear yet. I think the old thief is holding back a big move, we can all wait, there must be a surprise."

The netizens thought it was a rumor from other manufacturers or the Journey Cup, who knew that Boss Yin would say such heavy news as soon as he opened his mouth?

"How did you know that?"

"No, you also know about this?"

"Who told you?"

Yin Lao Da said with a smile: "Then I can't tell you. Anyway, it's not against the rules to just say this. You just wait and watch the live broadcast."

Yin Lao Da's chat directly aroused the curiosity of the fans. They waited silently until 10 o'clock in the morning, when the official live broadcast room of the Journey Cup started, and everyone rushed into the live broadcast room.

The layout of the live broadcast room for the Journey Cup version update was similar to a talk show.

There were two sofas in the center of the live broadcast room. Representatives of 108 participating manufacturers will enter the live broadcast room in order from low to high ranking to explain the updates of their own games and accept a brief interview with the host.

The pretty female host, wearing a long dress with petal patterns, raised the microphone and said:

"Welcome all fans, game lovers, and players to enter the live broadcast room to watch the version update of this Journey Cup. I am the host Rui'er."

After the female host briefly introduced the rules of today's live broadcast event, the players realized that the Taipingdao [Hu Baoyi] exhibition hall was ranked 108th in the live broadcast order, which was the last.

"Let's officially enter the live broadcast introduction of today's version update!" The female host extended her hand and invited:

"Next, please invite the representative of the Night Game Company in the [Golden Retriever] exhibition hall to enter the live broadcast room. Give all fans a brief report on the version update of their own games."

The Night Game Company ranked last in the Liangshan 108 Game Exhibition Halls in this Journey Cup [Golden Retriever] exhibition hall.

From this ranking, it can be seen that the strength of the Night Game Company is not actually dominant in this competition.

The game released by Dark Night Game Company, Curse of Darkness, has good sales, but it is only ranked 98th.

However, don't underestimate Dark Night Game Company just because of such ranking data. Because of the Curse of Dark Night, the current game sales have exceeded the 8 million mark.

A person who can participate in the Journey Cup competition, even if he is just a passerby, is still a genius in his previous field.

However, there is no shortage of talent in the Journey Cup competition.

The chief planner of Dark Night Game Company wears a brown plaid shirt, a pair of glasses that look like thick glass bottle caps, and light black jeans. He fits the stereotype of game producers.

He came to the live broadcast room, and at the host's instruction, he sat on the sofa. After a few simple greetings, he introduced the version updates of his game in detail——

"The Curse of Darkness, this version update adds a new map, school dormitories, new team gameplay, and various new mechanisms..."

The chief planner explained for about five minutes, and then came to the host interview session.

"Hello, do you have any regrets about this Journey Cup?"

"Regret?" The chief planner pondered for a moment, then raised his head and said:

"It's really a pity. Everyone knows that horror games require a sense of immersion. The stronger the sense of immersion, the better the player experience."

"What we regret most is that Tiangong General's Fenghuo No. 3 full-sense game cabin was released too late. If Curse of Darkness can have a full-sense experience, I think the results we handed over in this Journey Cup competition will still shine. There are many eyes.”

There were millions of online friends in the live broadcast room, and they immediately became happy when they heard this.

Do you openly praise other contestants during your own interviews?

Black Night Game Company, although you are the lowest-ranked golden retriever among the eight generals in Liangshan, but after hearing these words, I think your future is bright.

"Who is this? Dark Night Games Company, right? Give me a reward! A big reward!"

"Anyone who praises Taiping Dao or General Tiangong will support them!"

"Hahahaha, boy, you've made the road wider."

Representatives of participating manufacturers came on stage one after another to introduce their own version updates.

New maps, new gameplay, welfare activities, new characters, new tasks, opening of creative workshops, free welfare gifts, and many other measures.

Until 6 pm, this live broadcast is coming to an end.

The Taipingdao Game Company representative from the Hubaoyi Hall, General Tiangong, made his final appearance.

Cai Gou wore a suit as usual today and combed his hair like an adult.

The moment he walked into the live broadcast room, the female host immediately stood up and asked Cai Gou to sit down.

The Yellow Turban Army in the live broadcast room also collectively swiped the screen at this moment——

"The sky is dead, the yellow sky should stand! At the age of sixty, the world will be at peace!"

The host complimented: "Hello, General Tiangong, I am also a fan of yours. I am very happy to see you in today's live broadcast. You are more handsome in person than on TV."

Facing this situation, Cai Gou just smiled.

The host then asked: "Excuse me, General Tiangong, the current sales volume and reputation of Resident Evil Village are the first in this journey cup."

"Even the concept is favored by players. I think no one can beat the participating games in this Journey Cup."

"Faced with such excellent results, what kind of surprises will you bring to players in this update of Resident Evil Village?"

Cai Gou raised the microphone and said: "I'm glad that you like the game Resident Evil Village and the story of the protagonist Ethan."

"Interpretations about Resident Evil Village are all over the Internet now, so I won't show off. I think everyone can't wait anymore. So let's fast forward to the announcement."

"In this Journey Cup, Taipingdao's participating game Resident Evil Village will bring you a new DLC during the version update."

"This DLC is very special, how special is it? Let's put it this way, when you first see this DLC, you will feel that it is a very special existence."

"Because, the name of this DLC is - Anti-Japanese DLC!"

Female host: "???"

Player friend: "???"

No……

no!

Did I misunderstand, or did you make a mistake?

Anti-Japanese DLC?

A horror game with a medieval European background. How does it combine with the anti-Japanese theme?

Players once again intuitively realize that humans have developed less than 1% of Resident Evil Village.

"I'm sorry, I thought the old thief would give me a surprise, but didn't I expect this surprise to be so big?"

"Isn't it... Anti-Japanese DLC? The picture is too beautiful, I can't imagine it..."

"Resident Evil: Village Resistance DLC has a feeling like Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice's bald DLC!"

"Oh! I'm just saying, I'll understand if you explain it this way."

As a participating manufacturer ranked among the top 36 Tiangang Stars in the Journey Cup, participating representatives can play a short PPT during this live broadcast.

So while the fans in the live broadcast room were puzzled, the PPT of the Anti-Japanese DLC was already displayed on the screen.

Cai Gou stood up and introduced while flipping through the PPT:

"This DLC update makes up for the shortcomings of horror game players who are afraid of ghosts. The Anti-Japanese DLC, as the name suggests, has replaced all monster textures with little devils."

"After loading the DLC, when players enter the game, the werewolves they face will all become Japanese devils, and they will also speak a few common Japanese words. The background music also adds 18 kinds of battlefield music such as the charge horn."

"Guaranteed to make all players feel immersive. Activate the power of your blood. Fear? It doesn't exist. Just one word - do it!"

Friends: "!!!"

Players: "!!!"

The Anti-Japanese DLC is outrageous, but why do you want to play it inexplicably?

When horror games are no longer scary, will this game still be fun?

Perhaps, the Anti-Japanese DLC of Resident Evil Village will give the answer!

"Fighting the Japanese? Just thinking about it makes me excited!"

"To be honest, I have a little money. When will the Anti-Japanese DLC be released? I'll come and see what's going on!"

"I'm severely allergic to horror games. I bought Resident Evil Village but didn't even play it. I don't dare to play it. But if you talk about the Anti-Japanese DLC, then I'm not sleepy!"

The female host looked curious and asked, "General Tian Gong, can I ask you a question on behalf of the players?"

"You say."

"How much does this Anti-Japanese DLC cost?"

"How much? Isn't it a bit bad to charge for the Anti-Japanese DLC?" Cai Gou said:

"The Anti-Japanese DLC is free. All players who buy the Resident Evil Village will get the Anti-Japanese DLC for free!"

The water friends in the live broadcast room were even more excited when they heard it, and shouted-

Old thief, you are so cool!

"Then..." The female host rolled her eyes and asked, "According to your introduction, the core of the Anti-Japanese DLC update is actually the replacement of monster textures."

"Compared with other participating manufacturers, the strength of this version update is very small. Aren't you worried that other manufacturers will come later and surpass you?"

Cai Gou shook his head and said, "I have confidence in Resident Evil Village, I have confidence in the Anti-Japanese DLC, and I have more confidence in the players' enthusiasm for anti-Japanese war."

The female host nodded and continued to ask, "What kind of opportunity prompted you to make this Anti-Japanese DLC in Resident Evil Village?"

Cai Gou said without hesitation, "I exposed most of the horror atmosphere of the game, but I replaced a part of it, I think I replaced some of the monster textures, and then I knew you were playing the Anti-Japanese DLC."

"Did you replace it on purpose?"

"I replaced part of it during the production process."

"Was it intentional or accidental?"

"Yes, it was intentional!"

The female host nodded and thanked:

"Okay, thank you for accepting this interview, and I look forward to the Anti-Japanese DLC and bringing wonderful performances. This issue of the Journey Cup version update live broadcast will end here."

"Currently, the version updates of 108 games have been completed. You can log in to your favorite game immediately and experience the updated Journey Cup 2.0!"

"Journey Cup, always on the road."
