Chapter 40 New Game "The Legend of Destiny Crouching Dragon"


Chapter 40 New Game "The Legend of Destiny Crouching Dragon"

Gu Fan was in a good mood, while Lilith was in a bad mood.

Although it was just a small game played casually during the recruitment period, such an incredible and tragic failure still made Lilith disappear for two more days.

But he is a powerful hell demon after all. When Gu Fan saw Lilith again, she seemed to have adjusted her mentality and couldn't wait to start the development of the next game.

What surprised Gu Fan was that Lilith did not directly bring the design of the finished product this time.

Instead... I plan to discuss it with Gu Fan.

"I have a question. Do you humans, especially Easterners, have anything particularly difficult to deal with?" Lilith asked such a question very seriously.

Gu Fan felt confused: "It's hard to calm down? That's too much."

Lilith said seriously: "It's not an individual's hard time to calm down, it's best to have a group nature. , and it’s a more profound one.”

Gu Fan was still confused: “Why do you ask this?”

Lilith sighed: "Oh, what a source!"

"Several games in succession have exhausted the little inspiration I had in hell. This time I went back and I kept thinking about what the new game should be. What to do, but still have no idea.

“I was thinking, if you humans have something particularly difficult to deal with, wouldn’t it be appropriate to make it into a game?”

Gu Fan was silent for a moment: “伱means , looking for a particularly difficult thing to draw from? After making the game, the players still don’t get what they want?”

Lilith patted the armrest of the massage chair happily: “That’s right! That’s what it means!”

Gu Fan couldn't help but give a thumbs up secretly, "Okay, as expected, you are better at being a human being!"

If someone else said that they wanted to make such a game, it would definitely be to allow players to make up for this "difficulty of emotions" in the game and to give these regretful stories a perfect ending.

But what about Lilith?

She can be completely unhuman and even sell her soul to the devil for the sake of negative emotions.

Oh, she is a devil herself, so that’s okay.

In short, Lilith wants to make a game based on a subject that makes many people "uneasy". In the game, not only will she not make up for the regrets, but she will reproduce the regrets or even emphasize the regrets, bringing greater consequences to the players. psychological trauma, in order to generate more negative emotions in batches.

So, what theme should we choose?

Gu Fan fell into deep thought.

You must be careful in your choice this time. If you really make a particularly outrageous game, such as a pure love game but end up with all tauren, Lilith's negative emotions will be earned. But Gu Fanke was about to be ruined.

Therefore, it is best not to choose themes that are directly related to reality. The risk is too high.

Gu Fan thought about it seriously for a long time, and then said: "How about a historical theme?"

Lilith was stunned for a moment: "A historical theme? Is this very 'uneasy'? Can it generate a lot of negative emotions? "

Gu Fan nodded: "Of course! And it's more cost-effective than ordinary realistic themes!"

Lilith frowned suspiciously: "Please tell me in detail."< br>
Obviously, she didn't really believe it from the bottom of her heart.

If it is a realistic theme and is based on things that happen around most people, then this game will definitely be more resonant. What about historical themes? After all, it is too far away from most people. Even if there is really something difficult to resolve, it may not be able to cause enough mental damage to the players, right?

Gu Fan shook his head slightly: "That's not necessarily true. You know, history is a wonderful thing. The regrets that humans encounter in daily life are simply insignificant compared to the regrets in history.

“What regrets can ordinary people have in their daily lives? It’s just that I didn’t get into the university I wanted to get into, I didn’t find the person I wanted to love, I was alone, accomplished nothing, etc…”

The corner of Lilith’s mouth twitched slightly: “Isn’t this enough? "

Gu Fan shook his head slightly: "Of course it's not enough. These regrets are easily forgotten over time, and they may not resonate on a particularly large scale.

"Because most people will gradually figure it out, gradually become detached, and even become numb.

"But the difficulties in history are different.

“Look at this.”

Gu Fan said, took out his mobile phone, found a popular Q&A website, and simply searched for a few keywords on it.

Then Lilith saw many jaw-dropping questions. "Give Zhuge Liang 2,000 college students, will the Northern Expedition succeed?" 』

"Give Zhuge Liang unlimited fried chicken burgers, will the Northern Expedition succeed?" 』

『If you give Zhuge Liang a million cats, will the Northern Expedition be successful? 』

『Give Zhuge Liang 500 AKs and 100,000 rounds of ammunition, can the Northern Expedition succeed? 』

『If Zhuge Liang could live to be 104 years old, would the Northern Expedition be possible? 』

There are countless questions like this, and even after turning over several pages, there is nothing the same.

Some are sending supplies, some are sending military commanders or wise kings, and some are sending black technology directly.

All the issues are still very popular, and these people are even seriously discussing or joking about how history may develop under this situation.

For example, someone answered under the last topic: "If Zhuge Liang really lives to be 104 years old, it is hard to say whether he can help the Han Dynasty, but the Wei Dynasty should be saved."

Lilith There were black question marks all over her face, which obviously made her feel very confused.

"You humans... are so boring."

Gu Fan shook his head slightly: "You don't understand, right? This is the powerful power that Yi Nanping has in history.

" Take the history of the East as an example. Zhuge Liang and Yue Fei can be said to be the top "difficult to calm down", and it is also a regret for the entire China.

“Even after two thousand years, there are still countless netizens willingly sending them bullets, instant noodles, ballpoint pens, notebooks and other materials, hoping that they can succeed in the Northern Expedition.

“You said Is this kind of regret comparable to the small fights in daily life? ”

Lilith looked at these questions carefully, and then nodded thoughtfully: "Indeed, you have convinced me a bit."

Although she is a Western devil and cannot empathize with this emotion, she can also You can still roughly understand how deep this obsession is through the questions and answers on the Internet.

"Okay, I understand! Then wait for two more days, and I will come back to you after I finish writing the design draft!"

Lilith found the direction and became high-spirited again.

……

...

Two days later, Lilith brought the written design plan.

Gu Fan took a look at the name of the game: "The Legend of Destiny Crouching Dragon"!

You can't tell much just by looking at the name. It can only be said to be quite satisfactory. Gu Fan guessed that the core gameplay of this game may be a traditional strategy or a JRPG.

The former is represented by the "Three Kingdoms" series of games, while the latter is represented by "Three Kingdoms Cao Cao". Both types have left a mark in the history of games.

But taking a closer look at the core gameplay, Gu Fan almost spit out blood.

“Why is this a small game?”

Gu Fan was shocked, because this game is not a traditional strategy game or JRPG at all. Its game system is very streamlined. , the game content has also been cut a lot, and this size can only be regarded as a small game or an independent game!

In traditional strategy games, players can do a lot of things. They can deal with internal affairs in the city, collect taxes and grain; they can arrange troops and capture military commanders; they can attack cities and seize territory, and rob cities...

In strategy + JRPG games, players can also control the protagonist to make decisions at some major nodes in history to enhance the sense of participation.

But in "The Legend of Destiny Crouching Dragon", many of these gameplays are not available, and even if they are, they have been completely castrated!

If traditional strategy games can sell for 298, then the castrated "Destiny Wolong Legend" can sell for 98, which is already very good.

Lilith was confident: "I'm just here to collect negative emotions. Why do I make the game so complicated?"

Gu Fan found it hard to refute for a while.

After all, Lilith is just a devil from hell. She plays games purely for the sake of making dumplings out of vinegar. As long as she can ensure that she collects enough negative emotions, she doesn’t care whether the game is fun or not and whether the content is substantial. .

Likewise, she doesn't care at all about the price and reputation of the game.

Gu Fan continued to look down, trying hard to find loopholes in the game.
