I just want players to save money, but I was made the richest man

Nuliu wanted to drag Zhuangzhuang directly to the mine.

However, Zhuang Zhuang has been wandering around the town for the past two days, and after becoming familiar with many NPCs, he got some information.

The Explorers Guild will sell corresponding weapons and suits, but the price is a bit expensive.

The two siblings still had a total of twenty thousand gold coins in their pockets.

It was originally planned to be reserved for building chicken coops and livestock sheds.

But Nuliu thought about it.

Recalling the previous experience of dying suddenly in a mine and the medical expenses after being rescued by a doctor, it cost a full 1,000 gold. (10% of the player's deposit will be deducted each time, with a maximum of 1,000 gold coins)

After thinking about it, I decided to bear the pain and pay.

The man is equipped with a wooden sword with an attack power of 3~7 points, -500G.

One pair of sneakers per person, +1 defense point, and another 1000G spent

And two citrine rings, which increase the weapon hit rate by 10%, -2000G

Before she even did anything, the 3,500 gold expenses were gone, which made the woman feel a twinge of pain.

But the thought that there might be something good in the mine cheered her up again.

The mine in "Stardew Valley" has only a deep hole extending downward at the entrance, equipped with a ladder, indicating that players can climb in from here.

In addition to this, there is an elevator built into the wall next to the mine.

It can be said to be the ultimate combination of ancient methods and technology.

After turning on the elevator button, you will find that the floor it stops at is very special.

It starts from 0 and stops every 5 floors until it reaches the 120th floor underground.

The female streamer estimated that last time it might be because she did not reach the fifth floor, so the elevator did not unlock the floor, and the player needed to go downstairs manually.

Just leave.

This time I had better luck going down the mine than last time. There were several torches stuck on the ground, which could illuminate the surrounding area.

Wherever you look, ordinary ores visible to the naked eye are scattered, outlining a trail like a maze.

With the help of the torch, you can still see several Q-bomb green slimes chrysalis not far away.

Without saying a word, he stepped forward with his sword and struck.

After all, "Stardew Valley" is just a game that focuses on farming elements, and the details of combat are not that detailed.

It's nothing more than the character controlled by the player swinging the sword, and then fighting off the monsters and dealing some damage. After a few blows, some weak monsters can be killed, and there is a probability of exploding certain materials, and increasing the experience value of some combat skills.

The monster's painting style is also more Q version, relatively young.

If you take it out alone and score it on a 100-point scale, I'm afraid I can only score 10 points for this combat system that requires touch but no feel and special effects but no special effects.

Even some fresh graduates who have just graduated from the game design major can finish the game with their eyes closed.

But its most exquisite thing is that it can be integrated into the entire system of "Stardew Valley", allowing players to experience the fun of micro-combat and upgrade their equipment in addition to farming, fishing, and mining.

It definitely adds another layer of richness to the gameplay.

10 points itself is worthless.

But if it is 90 points plus these 10 points.

The meaning given changes instantly.

Kill the slime three times, five times and two times, and throw the exploded slime into your backpack.

"Zhuangzhuang, you left me and I dug a passage to the next level."

"OK!"

The downward mining setting in "Stardew Valley" is also very interesting.

It does not directly expose a passage to the player.

Instead, it will be hidden in ores or monsters.

Only when a certain monster is killed or a certain ore is mined will the entrance to the next level be revealed.

After adding some luck, even the boring task of smashing rocks with a pickaxe becomes interesting.

The siblings also made a small bet.

See who digs out the lower entrance the most times, and the other party will have to send 200 red envelopes to the other party.

On the first three floors, Zhuangzhuang had better luck, and he could reach the entrance with just a few pickaxes.

And because the siblings were equipped with weapons for this trip, the efficiency of killing monsters has also improved a lot.

Not long after, the two arrived at the fifth floor and activated the elevator on that floor.

Next time you go into the mine, you can start digging directly from the -5 level, eliminating the inconvenience of starting from the -1 level every time to find the entrance.

After going down from the 5th floor, the number of rare ores here increases significantly.

Occasionally, you can pick up some amethysts, citrines, quartz and earth crystals scattered on the ground.

Donating these things to the museum can be considered as collection items, and some of the ores are also tasks that need to be completed for community sacrifices.

In addition, there are also the ores that women need most during this trip.

Copper mine!

There are about 2 to 3 copper ore deposits on each level. After mining, 3 to 5 copies of copper ore will be exploded, which is about the amount of a copper ingot.

"I didn't expect the profit from the mine to be quite high. If we calculate it based on the price of buying a piece of copper ore, after clearing the first floor, we will have two to three hundred gold coins." The female stream couldn't help but sigh.

She originally thought that going down to the mine would be a boring process.

What fun can there be in banging on stones?

But Ready Player One once again proved it to players with excellent design.

There is no boring gameplay, only boring design!

The reason is simple.

It may be boring for you to dig sand with a shovel.

But if there is a set of Lego aircraft carrier models buried under the sand, you can dig them out and take them away.

Oh! That's so cool, no one loves digging in the sand more than me!

Many people in the barrage were very happy to see the female stream digging. As one piece of rare copper ore was dug out, they felt comfortable knowing its value.

“I feel like other factories should learn from Ready Player One’s spirit and strive to make every detail fun and interesting!”

"Just talking about the element of mining, many games have it, but what do they do? In order to submit tasks to NPCs to mine, they are given daily rewards, which makes me not want to do it every day."

"This kind of thing is fine, but I've seen something even more outrageous. The main quest dares you to dig for mines, and even digs out 100 copies of it, deliberately slowing down the player's progress. If it weren't for their good painting skills, I would I gave up the trap long ago.”

Meanwhile, in the game.

Nvliu and Zhuangzhuang went to the mines on the first day. They dug until they were exhausted. They also ate a few bites of food to recover. They gave up when their energy was almost exhausted.

Even if the energy is used up, they will be taken to the clinic, so the two of them deliberately left a few drops.

The final number of floors is fixed at the 10th floor.

Although it failed to reach the 20th level in the hearts of women.

But the harvest is quite rich.

After activating the elevator on this floor, you can dig down directly from the -10th floor next time.

And I also picked up two treasure chests on this floor, which was an unexpected gain.

After opening, there are two pairs of identical leather boots, which can increase the defense by 1 point compared to the sports shoes on the female stream's feet.

After decisively changing into her clothes, the female streamer took a quick look at her earnings for the day.

The two of them mined today and obtained a total of 41 copies of copper ore, a dozen copies of other rare ores, and a series of materials exploded by monsters.

I also saved 200 copies of the basic stones.

"It's not bad. It's equivalent to 3,000 gold coins. It's only a little bit worse than the income of two people fishing." The female stream was slightly delighted: "I didn't expect the mining return rate to be so high."

Return home and smelt the broken copper ore you have on hand into copper ingots.

While waiting, Nuliu began to plan her itinerary for the next day.

The more she plays this game now, the more she realizes that although the degree of freedom is high, players can also play it in a bad way.

But if you want to play seriously, the more careful the planning, the more comfortable it will be to play, and the progress will be arranged in a substantial and orderly manner, and the live broadcast room viewers will also like to watch it.

"Today I still feel that I have suffered from a lack of energy. I was forced to turn back at three or four in the afternoon. I will bring more food to the mine tomorrow and replenish my energy while digging. I will try to dig until early in the morning and then go home, so that I can make full use of my time. maximize."

"As for the food, let me take a look, um..."

"This miner's special drink looks good. It can add level 3 mining skills. It has high mining efficiency and a high mineral explosion rate. Unfortunately, the materials required for its production are too demanding."

"Hmm... Omeletteing an egg seems to be the easiest. It only requires one egg. The effect is to restore 50 points of physical strength... It seems that I will have to go find Robin to build a chicken coop tomorrow."

"Oh? An omelette is more suitable. It +125 points of physical strength, but it requires eggs + milk, so let's build the barn together."

Although Nvliu is eager to make the brewing barrel right now.

But the initial money must be spent wisely, otherwise there will be a situation like in fantasy novels where the foundation is not solid, making subsequent improvements more difficult.

"For the time being, I'll use the green beans I reserved earlier to make spicy bean hot pot, and then I'll bring a few more fish with me."

After the planning was completed, Nu Liu asked Zhuang Zhuang to go to the mine first early the next morning and went to Robin's house.

He submitted the corresponding materials and 10,000 gold coins, and asked Robin to help build a chicken coop and a livestock shed.

Then he followed into the mine.

The next day, because I brought a few extra sets of food, I rushed to the 25th floor in one go.

Got a new weapon, a steel light sword with 4~8 attacks, which is slightly improved than the wooden sword in your hand.

In terms of income, as we go deeper, we have accumulated nearly 60 copies of copper ore, which can be used to produce 12 sets of copper ingots.

After both buildings were unlocked on the third day, the girl couldn't wait to rush to Marnie's ranch.

Bought 4 chickens and 4 calves each.

The moment the animal is placed in the barn.

The small farmhouse also began to gradually become more lively.

Both animals require a five-day maturation period, after which the chicken can lay one egg per day, worth 50G.

Cows can produce a bottle of fresh milk every day, which is sold for 125G.

"If you calculate it like this, the average daily income from crops + agricultural products alone can be instantly increased to 1,500 gold coins." The woman's eyes were filled with joy.

The commentators in the live broadcast room also spoke one after another after unlocking a new way to make money.

"It feels really good to watch 66 play. The planning is orderly and the growth is visible to the naked eye."

“The main reason is that this game has a really high sense of anticipation, and the power source that drives players forward is well designed. When I see that 66 now has two sheds, I can’t help but think about upgrading it to a large barn in the future. What will it be like?"

While the barrage was still chatting, a loud shout suddenly came from the earphones.

"Fuck!! Sister! Sister, come and see!"

Nvliu has been busy running around to buy new buildings for her family these days, while Zhuangzhuang has taken up the mining work alone.

A few days later, he had dug below the 35th floor.

After hearing this, the female streamer arranged everything at home and quickly ran towards the mine.

I took the elevator all the way down to the -35th floor and saw no one.

Then continue walking down the road that Zhuang Zhuang has opened up.

36

37

38

finally

On the 39th floor, I saw a strong figure.

When Nuliu stepped forward to find out.

He was also shocked by the scene in front of him.

Copper mine!

Dense copper deposits!

It costs about a dozen yuan at a glance!

This is just an intensive mining point. The area of ​​this layer of mines is not small, and it is surrounded by a zigzag.

Scattered copper mines can also be seen along the road.

"Oh my god, so much?" A feeling of joy ran through the girl's body like an electric current.

After the live broadcast in the past few days, the female streamer discovered that the game "Stardew Valley" has a very large demand for minerals.

In the future, almost anything you make will be inseparable from this type of metal ore.

Even if it continues to be mined every day, its consumption is still in short supply.

A cheese press that converts milk into cheese requires copper ingots.

The coal cellar that keeps the furnace running is also needed.

There are a series of sap collectors, brewing barrels, automatic sprinklers, etc. You can even use three copper ingots to synthesize an iron ingot.

As for these devices, players usually need more than one.

If you want to improve efficiency, it is a routine operation to put several or more than a dozen units of the same type of equipment up.

"Quickly, mine." Just as the female streamer was about to swing her pickaxe, she heard Zhuangzhuang say again.

"Sister, wait a minute, let's have a miner's special drink first! +Level 3 mining skills."

"That's right." The girl has a few of these things in her backpack. She made them two days ago, but because the cooking materials are difficult to obtain at this stage, she has never been willing to eat them.

Soon, he drank it along with the miner's special drink.

+3 mining level can not only reduce physical consumption, but also speed up the mining speed and the explosion rate of mineral output.

The two siblings were chattering in this dark, deep mine.

After a few minutes, the 39th floor was cleaned.

Soon, the broken copper ore exploded all over the place!

Pick them all up and count them.

With the blessing of the miners' special drink, nearly a hundred copper ores were mined from this layer alone!

Plus what Zhuangzhuang saved just now.

A full 150+

Can make more than 30 copper ingots in one go!

You know, when the siblings went into the mine for the first time a few days ago, they both ran out of energy and only got a total of 40+ copper ores.

This time I got really bored!

What's even more comfortable is that the mines are refreshed regularly every day.

When there is no copper ore, you just need to take the elevator to the -30 floor and start mining all the way down.

All the way to the 39th floor, there will be a big harvest after it is full.

This is tantamount to announcing that the copper ingots that have been struggling in the early stage have finally achieved initial freedom!

This scene also made the viewers in the live broadcast room express their excitement.

"I'm sorry... this is obviously a pixel style game, why does it feel so good to play... even I, the audience, enjoy watching it."

"The main thing is the power of accumulation. Precisely because Gravograph has mastered the feeling of resource shortage very well, when you can suddenly obtain it easily, you will feel refreshed."

"Although it is very difficult...but thank you, Gravograph!"

"??? BYD sees what can come out, right?"

Although this wave made many viewers feel comfortable.

But what no one expected was that there would be surprises later!

After the siblings collected the minerals, they prepared to go down to the 40th floor to activate an elevator save point and then return to the ground. After all, their physical strength was almost exhausted.

As a result, they just arrived at the -40th floor of the mine.

A sudden change in style!

Change the dim scene in front.

It suddenly became brighter here, with large sheets of crystal clear ice covering it, outlining a bright, cold color.

At this moment, it was presented in front of the two siblings and all the viewers in the live broadcast room.

Except for the blue-gray cold-colored ordinary stone that looked like it was wrapped in frost.

There are also several pieces of ore that sparkle with silvery gray color.

That is a second-level rare ore that is harder to obtain than copper ore! An essential material for making high-level props.

The live broadcast room suddenly became excited!

"I'm super, iron?"

"Guigui! Starting from the 40th floor, you can already dig iron ore?"

"I'm convinced, I'm really convinced! Starting from the novel farming gameplay, then to the unique fishing settings, then to animal husbandry, and later we were told that there is also a unique way to make money like brewing wine. After that, there is a combat element, and now mining It has begun to continuously output emotional feedback to the players again! Is it really just one wave after another that makes me breathless?"

"Gravograph is so good at surprises! A damn single-player game has been live broadcast for three days. I'm almost tired of trying other stand-alone games. How come their games are still being streamed out continuously? Risking a surprise?"

"Who will translate for me? How many surprises are there behind this?"

Next chapter: Help farmers! Try to wrap up all the reactions and impacts of this game within three chapters.

The length is almost reached. There are still a lot of details and Easter eggs in the game. Due to the length, I can’t continue to show them. I am used to limiting a game to about 10 chapters.

It can be considered that I have basically written down the current core gameplay of this game (farming, fishing, mining, animal husbandry). I haven’t written much about the interaction of NPCs because there are too many details, and there are too many NPCs. Everyone has it. With my own characters and independent plot, copying and pasting their dialogue would be too clumsy, so I won’t write it at all.

I just need to add a few details one after another, and that’s it. Readers who are interested in this game can download it and try it out. If you can accept the pixel style, this game is really fun.
