Chapter 18 is another start of Heavenly Collapse!
Lecturer Ding soon discovered that he would always stumble in all kinds of incredible ways.
For example, even if he lifts a stone and jumps to the edge of the opposite platform, as long as the system determines that the area he stepped on is not large enough, Sisyphus will still lose his balance and fall.
For another example, even though he was walking on a straight wooden bridge, Sisyphus would still deviate from the straight line inexplicably, slipping and falling.
There are many similar situations. In short, this undoubtedly makes players feel "disgusting".
Strictly speaking, these errors are not considered player errors. If placed in other games, these situations would not happen at all.
In other games, as long as the character jumps to the edge of the other side, even if he only steps on one foot, he can still stand firmly; as long as he walks, he must be in a straight line and will never deviate inexplicably. shift.
So after getting used to this kind of operating logic, you will feel particularly uncomfortable when you come to "Sisyphus".
From the perspective of the game plot, this is reasonable.
After all, Sisyphus was carrying a big stone. When he jumped and landed, he lost his balance and the stone rolled. Is it normal? When pushing a stone, you can't see the road ahead and can't walk in a straight line. Is this reasonable?
But in the game, these do seriously affect the player experience.
More than half an hour has passed.
Lecturer Ding finally passed the first level outside purgatory without any danger and arrived at the level of "Those who died unexpectedly and penitent on their deathbed".
Compared with the "Garbage Mountain" on the previous level, the theme of this level is a bit cruel. The scenes are full of scenes of various accidents, including palaces and houses that collapsed due to earthquakes. There were various murder weapons, and in some places there were blazing flames.
Instructor Ding continued to push the boulder forward, cautiously.
Because he already knows that the scenes in the game are not all meaningless scenery, such as hot magma, sharp blades, piles of rubble, etc. Once encountered, there will likely be varying degrees of punishment.
For example, if you step on "gravel" while pushing the stone, your movement speed will only slow down; but if you jump on it while carrying the stone, Sisyphus will die from severe pain. Just throw the ball on the ground, the boulder will roll down, and all your previous efforts will be wasted.
Finally, after another hour of repeated challenges, Professor Ding came to the edge of the cliff on this level.
In front of you is a very narrow path. One step to the right is an abyss. Oh no, it should be said that one step to the right is "Go home often".
“OK brothers, it’s almost time for our live broadcast today. You should go to the next level after crossing this path.
"A car overturned? Brothers, it is impossible for a car to overturn in this place. Let me leave it here."
Instructor Ding has reason to be confident. After all, there does not seem to be any particularly dangerous mechanisms or obstacles on this path. It is even wider than some single-plank bridges I have seen before. As long as you are careful, you can pass it without any problem.
After adjusting his breathing a little, he pushed the boulder forward.
However, just after walking on the path near the cliff, some sounds came from the headphones.
It seemed to be the roar of a giant dragon, accompanied by the sound of flapping wings. Judging from the source of the sound, it was coming from the rear right.
"Isn't it?"
Instructor Ding suddenly had a bad guess, and he quickly turned his perspective to look to the rear and right.
There really is a giant dragon!
This giant dragon seems to have flown out of a huge cave in the lowest mountain. It is very large, and there are raging hell flames burning in the gaps between the black scales on its body. It looks oppressive. Full.
“Don’t make trouble, I can’t hold this thing for a while!
"No, no, it should just be here to heighten the atmosphere. Such an awesome dragon can't just mess with me. Isn't that bullying!"
As the dragon gets closer and closer. , Professor Ding was relieved, because this dragon was too huge. If it really flew over to give him a blow, it could only be said that it was a plot killing and that the game developer was deliberately disgusting.
Sure enough, the dragon’s target was not Sisyphus on the edge of the cliff.
It passed by Sisyphus, continued to flap its wings, and seemed to be spiraling upward.
As the dragon flapped its wings, a burst of air flow visible to the naked eye blew past, causing even the big rocks to sway.
"Okay, okay, it's really not for me!" Professor Ding patted his chest, "Yes, the performance is quite shocking."
He felt relieved and continued to press the "W" key, pushing Move forward against the boulder.
However, the next second, something unexpected happened.
Although the purgatory dragon had already flown past, the next time it flapped its wings, there was still a strong airflow blowing over!
Originally Sisyphus was fine standing where he was, but now he was pushing the boulder to move and could no longer hold the boulder steady.
"No!!!" Lecturer Ding screamed. He watched helplessly as the boulder shook violently, and then was blown away by the strong wind!
At this time, the audience in the live broadcast room seemed to hear four words in their minds: "I'm free!" 』
The boulder rolled quickly, first hitting the rock wall on the left side of the road, then rebounding, and rolling down the cliff on the right!
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
The boulders kept colliding and bouncing between the cliffs, and finally crashed onto the seashore at the bottom.
The next second, Sisyphus was teleported back to the boulder.
He sighed deeply and shook his head in annoyance, but finally stood up again and held the boulder with both hands again.
Lecturer Ding in the camera is also staring blankly at the computer screen, his whole person seems to be in a still state, and his expression and demeanor are almost completely synchronized with Sisyphus in the game.
I have to say that this game has an explosive sense of immersion for those who play it; and for those who watch it, the show’s effect is explosive.
After a long silence, Professor Ding silently removed the camera and lit a cigarette for himself.
But I have to say that as a major anchor, he is indeed very professional, and Professor Ding's emotional regulation ability is still very strong.
“Hey, brothers, after struggling for another hour and a half, we have achieved great results and are back to the original starting point.
“Our "Sisyphus" today is It’s played here first. I can’t stand it any longer. I have to play some games to relieve my negative emotions...
“How do you rate this game?
"Uh... let's keep saying that. Party A's father must be right. It must be that I haven't found the correct way to play this game yet. I like to tell the truth."
After Professor Ding finished speaking, the speed of light Turn off the game "Sisyphus", then open any FPS game and start shooting.
......
Seeing this scene, Lilith couldn't help laughing again.
Gu Fan couldn't help but sigh, Professor Ding is really a god of food. He is so angry that he still insists on saying good things about this game and insists that "Party A's father is definitely right." This kind of professionalism is worthy of admiration!
As for why I know that Professor Ding is actually very angry?
Obviously, the prompts floating in Gu Fan's field of vision have explained everything.
【Negative emotions from Ding Qiang +30! 】
【Negative emotions from Ding Qiang +17! 】
【Negative emotions from Ding Qiang +86! 】
[The negative emotion value obtained by "Sisyphus": 734819! 】
Obviously, compared with the game "Hell Tracks", "Sisyphus" has a higher number of negative emotional values gained by a single player and the total number of negative emotional values gained. Great progress.
When Ding Qiang was playing "Hell Tracks", the negative emotion value generated by his first inexplicable headshot was only 5 points.
Because being shot in the head is a short-term pain, the player dies so quickly that there is no time to think about it, let alone do anything.
But "Sisyphus" is different, it is a long-lasting pain.
Not only are you tortured by the character's low performance every moment and continue to generate negative emotions, but you will also experience a large amount of negative emotions at once when the boulder rolls down the cliff!
As for the positive emotions generated by this game? Very little.
Maybe a small amount of positive emotions can be generated after the player finally passes a certain threshold after going through all kinds of hardships, but these positive emotions are a bit insignificant compared to the negative emotions caused by countless previous collapses and defense breaches. .
Gu Fan looked at the background data of the game again.
So far, this game has had more than 1.8 million effective clicks and 210,000 "live players".
In other words, 210,000 people downloaded the game and played it for at least a short time.
But so far, the sales volume of this game is 229.
Ridiculously low!
From the data point of view, "Sisyphus" was significantly more popular than "Hell Tracks" 2 hours after its release. The number of clicks was nearly doubled, and the number of players who actually downloaded and played it was doubled. A little more.
But the sales volume of the game is only half of that of "Hell Tracks"!
It can only be said that the talent is better than the talent.
The vast majority of people quit the game and gave up purchasing within two hours of trial play, and even completely wiped out their remaining interest in the game.
It can only be said that this is a more outrageous start to the collapse of heaven than "Hell Tracks"!
