Chapter 290 The Fifth Investigation Team
May 31, 2042.
At six o'clock in the afternoon, Umehara Ryozo packed up his office supplies and prepared to get off work as usual.
But a right hand suddenly tapped on his shoulder, which frightened him.
"Mr. Luo?"
In Chinese, it's called "zhengyuanyuan".
No wonder, it has been several years since he joined Chuxin. Before joining, Liangzo spent a lot of money to study Chinese.
After passing the customs, I have lived in an all-Chinese living environment for so long, and I have consciously adjusted my accent. It is not surprising to say this.
"Stay tonight and work overtime."
Umehara Ryozo frowned, as if he thought of something, suddenly stood up and asked in a panic:
"Did something unexpected happen to the monster hunter?"
Original Intentions is really a weird company in the industry, with less overtime than Nintendo.
However, whenever overtime occurs, there must be some major issues that need to be dealt with urgently.
"No."
Luo Bai shook his head, with a puzzled expression on his face as if he was questioning why Umehara Ryozo asked this,
"The game will be released soon. As one of the main creators of the game, shouldn't you stay here to see the players' feedback?"
Oh...
Main creator, yes, I am also the main creator.
When the Nintendo Hell project failed, I abandoned everything and came to this foreign country to pursue my dreams.
I have experienced a work environment that I could never imagine before, and have worked on countless first-class works that shocked the industry.
Now, I have finally become the main creator.
"Thank you, Mr. Luo. Without you, I'm afraid..."
Mei Yuan said sincerely.
"Don't do those sensational things. It's just that I have similar ideas in my mind. It's just a sympathy between developers."
Luo Bai waved his hand and motioned for Mei Yuan to follow him.
The "secret base" of the Chuxin headquarters is what everyone in the company calls this place.
The people who come here on weekdays, Mr. Luo, Brother Pu, Mr. Xiao... are all considered to be the absolute top of the company anyway.
However, anyone who is really familiar with this place knows that it is just a well-equipped otaku game room.
When he opened the door, he saw only Pu Xingyu's back.
There was an open can of beer on the table, and Pu Xingyu was concentrating on playing a game at the moment.
"I'm going to chop, chop, chop!"
The brave man's clever escape from the dragon's final attack also meant the end of the game.
The brave man who turned back looked at the big guy in front of him with his scales flying and his dragon horns broken, and completed the final blow!
But at this moment, Umehara Ryozo, who followed Luo Bai into the room, made a big blush.
The game Pu Xingyu is experiencing now is exactly his demo work a few years ago, Dragon Slayer.
At that time, he was involved in the Chuxin Breeding Project, but he was so savaged by the players that he almost gave up on the industry.
Likewise, this is also the prototype of Monster Hunter World.
How mature it is now, just look at how social this work was back then.
Meiyuan immediately rushed over and clamped Pu Xingyu's neck with his arms:
"It's closed! It's closed!"
"Harm, who doesn't have a dark history?"
Pu Xingyu turned off the game feeling bored, and the three of them were happily playing games in the game room, waiting for the official release of the game.
A few hours later.
Umehara Ryozo put down the controller in his hand, took out his mobile phone and took a picture of the moon outside the window, and then posted a Weibo message.
Umehara Ryozo:
"Monster Hunter is about to be released, so I'm a little nervous."
……
A communication group for salty fish players.
Goudan: "Picture.jpg."
Woman: Today is Children’s Day, give me a gift.
male:? You are a child.
Woman: Who is not a child yet?
Man: Then promise me not to do anything inappropriate for children today.
Woman: Shrimp-headed man! %￥&%
Chang Wan narrowed his eyes slightly. If he remembered correctly, he had seen this picture a long time ago.
But that’s the way the Internet is. There are always people showing off pictures that are almost swollen every year.
I forwarded it to a driving group next door, and Chang Wan asked directly in the group.
"Monster Hunter will be officially released at eight o'clock in the morning, right?"
Goudan: "Yeah, why do you want to buy it?"
Sing late: "Don't you buy it?"
Goudan: "I guess it's because of the new series. Mr. Luo released too many things this time.
The battle rhythm didn't suit me, so I decided to watch Erxiao's live broadcast before considering whether to buy it.
Besides, doesn’t this game have online functionality? You go and practice your skills first, and then you come and show me off and let me fly. ”
Sing late: "Middle finger.jpg."
Lao Lu: "I have already asked for leave. I have been playing Monster Hunter at home for the past two days. No one can stop me."
Monster Hunter Jiu Sheng commented: "Do you have any favorite weapons?"
Chang Wan: "It must be a pair of swords! In the actual demonstration video released by Mr. Luo, you can actually dance directly on the back of a dragon. This is so cool.
Before getting started, I couldn't imagine how this operation could be implemented in the game.
And you? ”
Monster hunter Jiu Sheng recommended: "It must be a bow and arrow. In what era are you still engaging in hand-to-hand combat? If you have long hands and short hands, you are a bull!"
Goudan: "Bah! I look down on you, you are a guy who skipped classes. I was the same guy in Dark Souls before. I secretly played a magician. Do you have any gaming experience?"
Monster Hunter Jiu Sheng commented: "What can you say to someone who doesn't plan to experience the game for the first time?
If ridiculing you can be considered a gaming experience, then I have a lot of gaming experience. ”
A group of old friends had been making jokes in the group for a long time, and the time had just turned to eight o'clock in the morning.
The moment "Monster Hunter World" was unlocked, Goudan was the only orphan left in the entire group.
Goudan: “I’m not targeting anyone, I’m saying that everyone here is rubbish! @all members.”
With a cruel message, Goudan first scanned the QR code to pay for the game, and then directly entered Erxiao's live broadcast room.
While the game was being downloaded, Erxiao was also chatting with everyone in the live broadcast room.
"Thank you Goudan for the small TV, thank you for this pussy."
The topic just now was interrupted, and Erxiao's head was empty. It took him a while to remember what he had just talked about,
"What weapon to use? I haven't decided yet, and now I don't know which weapon is more suitable for me.
Didn’t I just show you the Monster Hunter section of the Chuxin Games official website? I don’t have any particular favorites at the moment.
But according to internal information, the most handsome one should be Tai Dao. ”
"The most handsome one is Tai Sword? Brother Mei Zi is adding some private goods, isn't he? Furious!"
"It's true, I'll go to Weibo and blast this guy hard in a while."
"I will go to XX's fan circle now. Brother Meizi said that XX is a sissy."
"Guigui, you really want Brother Meizi to die, right?"
Most of the people who said this were joking, and Erxiao also smiled knowingly.
Brother Mei is the creative proposer of the Monster Hunter World project and the creative director of the entire Monster Hunter project, Umehara Ryozo.
Almost all loyal fans of Chuxin know this guy.
After all, when the first Chuxin Breeding Program just started, this guy was one of the few foreign developers. It’s hard to describe the quality of the “Dragon Hunter” demo at that time.
If this were the case, everyone might not be too familiar with this guy.
But after the first Hatsuxin nursery program, Umehara Ryozo joined Hatsuxin.
I started working as a part-timer under Mr. Luo, and together I experienced a series of large-scale games including Team Two, Doom Eternal, and Resident Evil.
This guy opened Weibo very early. After practicing Chinese for a period of time, he also likes to share some interesting things in the development process on it.
Made some minor revelations about Chuxin’s recent games.
At the beginning, everyone used it as a gossip media.
It’s just that as this guy’s Chinese got better and better, he later suffered from the abuse of Tieba, Internet novels and a series of other things.
The whole person is becoming more and more abstract.
I often play bad jokes with everyone on the Internet, and I also like to attack female boxers.
There was even a time when a female boxer said that he had a "book ID" and was a rare otaku.
Later, after it was revealed that this guy was really a book, it became a lot of fun for a while and completely became popular.
Many followers from Kangba and Sunba always like to come to this guy's comment section to test his abstraction level.
For example, this is the most popular one recently.
"Brother Meizi, what should I do if my investment in Yingjin is not growing recently?"
"It is recommended to use Japanese yen to hedge."
For a while, it was considered to be checked in by countless netizens.
Accompanied by a crisp beep.
Erxiao, who was watching videos and chatting with water friends, immediately didn't know what was going on.
Look directly at the camera with bright eyes and raise your right hand:
"Monster Hunting! Start!"
Everyone in the live broadcast room was driven to death by this.
"What's the movement?"
"Aminos!"
"Unlock it. Unlock it."
Amid the abuse from netizens, the original two-dimensional beautiful girl wallpaper on the desktop was completely blackened.
After the original intention of the big LOGO, as well as some big icons of sponsors and friends.
The mystery of "Monster Hunter World" has been completely unveiled before the eyes of all players.
The most eye-catching thing is the beautiful scenery in the background.
Ancient trees, lizards, vines, streams.
They are not static, but bloom with vitality in motion.
It seems like this is a real world, this is a breathing world.
[Monster Hunter]
[World]
An emblem like a Mayan pattern, the entire composition consists of dragons, wings, stars...
[Start Game]
Along with the opening CG, the background story of Monster Hunter World is also told to the players.
"So... everyone in the fifth investigation team, the time is almost up, so there is no need to say goodbye.
As long as you get on this boat, you can't turn back. If you have lost your consciousness, I advise you to turn back here. ”
A huge flag with the opening CG fluttering in the wind.
The broad male voice in the background is firm and resonant.
"Then, let's sail to the New World now!"
The screen went dark, and the door suddenly opened and burst into light.
Members wearing armor, carrying supplies, and carrying the title of the fifth investigation team walked toward the gate.
"May the blue star that leads the way shine for you."
The CG in the opening scene is easy to understand.
"So our protagonist is a member of the fifth investigation team and is about to sail to this place called the New World?"
"Why do I have a tragic feeling that I can never come back."
"You're never going back? I'm going to save and load the file directly!"
In the discussion of players.
What appeared on the screen at this moment was the interior of the cabin, which had obviously been sailing for quite some time.
The metal chandelier on the top of the cabin illuminates the entire cabin brightly.
The members of the fifth phase of the investigation team came and went, busy with the matters at hand.
However, the players with eyesight accurately caught a glimpse of two little guys in clothes and hats, holding oaken wine glasses and clinking glasses passionately.
"It's Cat!"
Two extremely anthropomorphic upright cats stole the spotlight from all the members in an instant.
However, the first-person perspective lens obviously did not stay too much on the cat.
As the protagonist, the player slowly walked down the stairs and observed more details of the group members.
Some people were chatting, some were drawing out the details of hunting with their hands, and some were adjusting the arm crossbow on their left hand.
Suddenly, a cat carrying a dinner plate on its head, containing a huge piece of meat with a fragrant aroma that would make all carnivores crazy, broke into the protagonist's sight.
After throwing the dinner plate on the table, Maomao raised his right hand very politely and saluted the members.
"Cats are cute."
"It seems that Maomao is a bit like a logistics staff."
There happened to be an empty seat opposite a group member who was reading a book.
As soon as the protagonist stepped forward and sat down, an NPC holding a tuft of brown fur walked over from opposite him.
He roughly pushed away the beautiful woman who was reading a book next to him.
Everyone is not angry.
"Climb, climb, climb."
"This man is so rude."
However, this NPC cannot see the resentment of the players.
"Hey, we're going to the New World soon. Are you ready?"
He spoke in a very familiar manner and told me some of his feelings after getting on the boat.
A woman in green clothes came over and revealed the identity of the protagonist - a member of the investigation team.
"Hey, what a coincidence, you are too? What's your name?"
The game has officially entered the pinch interface.
“The preset faces are all pretty good-looking.”
Erxiao said with emotion,
"Mr. Luo probably got better after the Resident Evil crisis. The preset faces in Dark Souls are too hellish."
Just when Erxiao thought that this session was about to end, he randomly picked some configuration that was quite satisfactory.
[Creating the follower El Cat]
A cute, upright Ellu cat wearing goggles that looked a bit like a helicopter pilot appeared in front of all the players.
"It turns out that cats are called Elu cats, they are so cute."
"There are quite a few types of cats in the default combination, including common cats such as pastoral, ragdoll, folded ear, and British shorthair."
"No, it doesn't matter if you can set the fur, tail, eyes, and stripes. What the hell are underwear!"
"Hurry up, Erxiao we want to see underwear."
"Fu Ruikong, right? Angry!"
It's said to be underwear, but it's actually the little vest that Maomao wears next to her body. It's something that none of the furry fans like to see.
Erxiao also pinched one hard based on the cat he raised.
The new world adventure of the fifth investigation team member Er Xiao and her partner Xiao Hei has officially begun!
