Chapter 196 Creating the World
"Hello friends, I am your old friend Erxiao!
I believe you all already know what I am going to do today. Yes, we are going to play Chuxin’s new game today! Terraria! ”
As the usual opening remarks, Er Xiao also appeared in the live broadcast room on time.
"It's so fast. A year has passed since the release of Terraria's first PV. Erxiao, how are you doing after not seeing you for a year?"
"To be honest, I am a time traveler who has developed time travel technology.
Now I have arrived on June 2, 2038, watching Er Xiao play Terraria in the live broadcast room. ”
"We haven't seen each other for a year. Let's say hello."
Seeing these people posting about the wrong time yesterday, Erxiao’s face turned red:
"Get out!"
The live broadcast room was suddenly filled with a happy atmosphere.
After pouting at the camera a few times, Erxiao immediately scanned the QR code and placed an order.
The game is not big, only about 300 megabytes, and in a blink of an eye, it has been downloaded.
The familiar Chuxin Game Studio logo makes countless pre-computer gamers smile.
Then, a dynamic main interface comes into view.
Next to an all-too-common big tree, the four characters [Terarraria] zoomed in and out.
In the background, the sun and moon continue to rise in the east and set in the west.
The entire background picture is also constantly alternating between light and dark.
[Single player game], [Multiplayer game]……
Who wants to play alone when two people can play a game?
"Brothers, wait a minute, I'll call Xiao Shisan."
As Er Xiao said that, he took out his mobile phone and made a call.
A few seconds later, the call was connected, and a lazy tone from the other end came from someone who was obviously sleep-deprived.
"Crooked?"
"My wife, come and play Terraria together."
"But I just got up..."
It definitely takes a lot of time for a girl to get up, wash up and put on makeup. Erxiao decided to seek the opinions of the brothers in the live broadcast room first.
"Brothers, wait a minute?"
"Ah? Is Xiaoxiao doing the live broadcast? Then I won't come. It will take a long time."
The audience in the live broadcast room was also very enthusiastic.
"My wife is so cute, wait! You have to wait!"
"It's true."
Erxiao also smiled after seeing it:
"Honey, hurry up, everyone is waiting for you."
"That...that's okay."
Xiao Shisan didn’t keep everyone waiting for too long. After just a few minutes, he successfully went online and downloaded Terraria.
It could be seen that she probably just did some simple cleaning and turned on the computer directly.
Look at the friend online prompt that pops up in the lower right corner.
After completing the wheat connection work, Erxiao immediately opened a server, but entering the game as expected did not happen.
Then you enter the character creation interface.
It's different from the many options for character creation in Dark Souls, in Terraria's character creation.
Each male and female character has five sets of clothes. After choosing a hairstyle you like, all that's left is to adjust the color.
Girls all prefer pink.
Looking at the cute little person with pink hair who appeared on the screen, Er Xiao nodded with satisfaction.
But after she followed suit and made all the colors pink, she couldn't help but laugh when she saw the little pink person appearing on the interface. Except for the whites of the eyes, everything is pink, which looks particularly funny.
"Please be normal, I'm scared."
"I recommend a pure black bald head. I think there should be hidden bonuses whether cutting down trees or digging."
"Are you okay?"
Ignoring the barrage, after some debugging, a cool girl with pink hair and wearing a long windbreaker appeared on the screen.
Erxiao is also quite satisfied with the characters he created. The characters themselves are actually difficult to choose.
The hard-core mode of clearing the game in one life was not considered. After thinking about it, I chose the soft-core mode of losing money upon death.
The souls in Dark Souls are not only upgrade experience, but also money to buy things. In a sense, they are similar, so there is no big problem.
After completing this link, I found that I still needed to create a world.
[Backward morgue]
"The names of this world are too abstract."
Erxiao complained and discovered that there is also a function of randomizing world names.
Then, names with unclear but interesting meanings popped up one after another, such as [Seasick Speed Run], [Bored Fountain], and [Sullen Regret Gut].
In the end, Erxiao chose a relatively normal [Kitten Stadium].
As for the seeds, it’s random. If you’re playing the game for the first time, just do it randomly.
There are three sizes of worlds: large, medium and small. According to the prompts given, Erxiao chose the medium world.
[Medium world: more suitable for long-term exploration with a friend]
“It’s so difficult to choose when creating a world.”
Erxiao frowned as he looked at the four difficulty options.
Travel, classic, expert, master.
"Master mode! Master mode! High-end players like Er Xiao must challenge high difficulty!"
"'Cruel and ruthless, a tribute to the true brave', look, look, isn't this kind of praise prepared for our Erxiao?"
"It's too simple and it's not fun to play. You know, Erxiao, you are the anchor! You have to control the effect of the program!"
Taking a closer look at the games Chuanxin has made over the years, the only ones with difficulty options are three.
Potato Brothers, Darkest Dungeon, Hollow Knight.
After all, the Potato Brothers are meat pigeons, and Hollow Knight's Steel Soul requires one life to clear the level, which is simply not within the scope of ordinary players.
Instead, Dark Dungeon became the only frame of reference.
After detailing his fear of being dominated by the Dark Dungeon when he was pioneering the wasteland, Erxiao felt a chill running down his back.
It's not a joke that four people can make five people crazy.
Chuxin has made so many games, and this is the only one that Erxiao has not cleared.
It’s not that Virtue MOD is not powerful enough, but after using it, the audience doesn’t like to watch it!
Recalling the horror of Blood Moon difficulty, Erxiao frowned and decisively chose the classic mode.
As for corruption or blood, I don’t know anyway, so just leave it at random.
[Generating cave]
[Generating grass]
[Desertification]
……
As row after row of characters flash on the screen, the progress bar underneath is also growing.
After a while, a world called Kitty Stadium was successfully created.
A tree is purple-black on the left and green on the right.
"Useless Erxiao, brothers, Xiaoshisan has started broadcasting, go quickly!"
"Hetui, does this difficulty defeat you? I don't quite agree."
"GKD!"
Ignoring these mouth-crazy monsters, she is not a high-level player. She just needs to be able to experience the fun of the game.
Everything is ready, characters and maps are created.
The journey of Erxiao Terraria has officially begun!
