Chapter 472 Lifelong Enemy Fake-AI
“A two-player cooperative...strategy management simulation game?”
Lilith had a puzzled expression on her face, obviously she had too many buffs. She was also a little confused about what kind of game this was.
At least in her limited gaming experience, she has never encountered this special type of game.
“Why do you want to play this type of game?” Lilith asked curiously.
Qin Fengliang thought for a while: "Well...if I have to say it, part of it is due to personal preference."
"I am a fan of strategic management simulation games. "
Lilith nodded slightly: "Oh. ”
This answer did not make her feel very convincing.
Everyone has their own preferred game type. Qin Fengliang is obviously not the kind of person who has a wide range of hobbies and plays all types of games. Players.
As a woman, she knows little about action games and prefers business simulation or development games.
This can also be seen from the previous design of "Blood of Lies".
Although Qin Fengliang proposed the underlying framework such as the dynamic difficulty mechanism, he did not make much design for the details of this action game.
This is because she really doesn’t know much about action games and is considered a layman.
Perhaps it is for this reason that Qin Fengliang is more interested in playing a game type that he is familiar with at this time.
But... can this alone achieve the goal of collecting negative emotions?
Lilith is not optimistic about this.
However, with the mentality of listening and understanding, she still asked: "Other than that? Why do you think this type is easier to collect negative emotions?
"Previously "The City Abandoned by Gods" 》’s failure was a bit frustrating to me. "
Qin Fengliang explained: "Mr. Li, although I have not played "City Abandoned by Gods" in depth, I have probably heard you say that the failure of this game is largely due to fake-AI technology. Bar? ”
As soon as Lilith heard this word, she felt a little hateful, and she said viciously: "That's right!"
Fake-AI technology is simply her lifelong enemy.
From "The Legend of Destiny Crouching Dragon" to "The City Abandoned by Gods", this thing can be seen.
Qin Fengliang asked curiously: "Then why doesn't Mr. Li directly ban this technology? Maybe it would be better if it was blocked directly from the underlying code?"
Lilith sighed. Tone: "Do you think I don't want to?
"The bad thing is that this technology was originally a technology strongly promoted by the official. After achieving two successes, the official was even more happy to deeply bind it to the development engine.
"Don't worry about it now. Whether you use Qianhuan Editor or Wanxiang Editor, you can't get around it at all!
“Whenever AI-related content is used, the default underlying logic is fake-AI.
“Even if I ask Nitian’s programmers to block all relevant codes, There is no way of knowing under what circumstances a bug would suddenly pop up and such a restriction would be skipped. ”
Obviously, Lilith is also a little helpless.
No matter where you make games, you can't escape the issue of editors. Currently, official editors, whether Qianhuan Editor or Wanxiang Editor, have built-in fake-AI functions.
It is inextricably linked to the underlying code.
No matter how hard it is blocked, it may not be completely blocked.
What about developing your own editor?
This problem may be solved, but firstly, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it will seriously slow down the development progress of new games; secondly, if those people from Nitiantian develop the editor, who knows how many holes they will bury in it.
Whether considering efficiency or security, it is obviously less reliable than the official editor!
So, it’s not that Lilith doesn’t want to kill the fake-AI, it’s just that she is unable to do so.
Although it is easy to overturn when making action games, at least you no longer need to be troubled by fake-AI.
Qin Fengliang said: "This is indeed a problem. Mr. Li, your concerns are very reasonable.
"But I have a way to try to solve this problem.
"Can't we just limit the role of fake-AI as much as possible in the game mechanism?"
Lilith was a little confused: "I understand your idea, but how to limit it specifically? Could I tell you Yes, is it related to two-player games?"
Qin Fengliang nodded: "Yes, Mr. Li, the solution I thought of is two-player games.
"Let players fight players and let negative emotions create more. So many negative emotions!
“But before that, I would like to briefly introduce to you the differences between business simulation games and reality.
"Do you know what is the biggest difference between historical-themed business simulation games and reality?"
Lilith looked a little confused: "Is it the digitization of various elements?"
>Qin Fengliang shook his head slightly: "No, Mr. Li, this is only a superficial difference, not a fundamental difference.
"Although the data obtained in simulated management in reality is far less intuitive and accurate than in the game, The data also exists.
"Even in terms of historical themes." Lilith nodded slightly.
This is actually not difficult to understand.
Just compare "The Legend of Destiny Wolong" with the real Three Kingdoms:
In the real history of the Three Kingdoms, Sima Yi also had the concept of "loyalty", but it was not digitized. No one in history can determine what this value is.
In the game, this data also exists, but it is digitized.
But it is not difficult to simulate this at all, as long as the relevant data is blocked in the game.
Therefore, this is not an essential difference, or it is just a manifestation of the essential difference.
Qin Fengliang did not reveal the answer directly, but continued to be tempting: "Mr. Li, do you know what the best political system is in historical business simulation games?"
Lilith was silent. , obviously this question is a bit beyond her knowledge.
“What is your human government system like?”
Obviously, Lilith knew only a little about this issue, and her knowledge reserve was probably not as good as that of a high school student.
But Qin Fengliang is not in a hurry, because the question she wants to talk about is actually not difficult to understand, and it doesn't matter even if she doesn't have much knowledge reserve.
"Mr. Li, the best system in similar games is an 'enlightened autocratic monarchy system that is decided by players.'"
Lilith frowned, obviously this matter was very important to her. It's a little bit difficult to understand.
Qin Fengliang smiled slightly: "It's okay, Mr. Li, I can explain it to you in detail.
“Why is this the best system in the game?
“Let’s take feudal society as an example. In feudal society, the emperor and the prime minister check and balance each other. The more imperial power there is, the less power the prime minister has. A little less and vice versa.
“In reality, it’s hard to say which one is better. Sometimes, the imperial power in feudal society excessively suppresses the power of the prime minister, which will lead to the emergence of weak emperors and the people’s livelihood; on the contrary, the expansion of the power of the prime minister can limit the number of emperors. Doing stupid things may also hinder each other, causing some big things that should be done not to be done."
Lilith nodded slightly, which was not difficult for her to understand.
But... what does this have to do with games?
Qin Fengliang continued: "Mr. Li, that's why I said that in the game, the optimal political system is an 'enlightened autocratic monarchy system decided by the players'."
"In the game, this is almost the best choice, and other No system can compare with it.
“Why?
“Because of the characteristics of the game, the advantages of this political system are infinitely magnified and the disadvantages are infinitely reduced. ”
Lilith seemed to understand but not quite.
Qin Fengliang continued: "The advantage of this system is that it can use resources more efficiently to do things, while its disadvantage is that it is highly dependent on the emperor's personal ability.
"If the emperor does not have a vision beyond the times and execution ability, or if the emperor pays too much attention to personal interests and fails to put the interests of the entire country first, it is likely to induce serious disasters.
“In addition, similar feudal autocratic monarchy systems are likely to ‘deceive the superiors and conceal the inferiors’.
“Due to the lack of bottom-up supervision, the emperor There is a good chance that he will be deceived by his officers.
“The data the emperor sees may not be true, and the reports he hears may also be whitewashed. Many problems he thinks are serious may not be the most important, and many he thinks do not exist problems may have affected the normal operation of the country
"So serious periodic problems will occur at the end of the feudal dynasty. The emperor's power is great on the surface, but the entire empire is like a high-ranking paraplegic. The monarch's orders cannot even be transmitted to the middle level, let alone the bottom level. "
Lilith nodded sharply: "That's right!"
She felt the same way.
At this time, Lilith felt that she was really the last emperor of the feudal era, and the people below her did not tell the truth.
But want to find out the mole?
Everyone is expressing their loyalty and crying for poverty, and it is impossible to tell who is real and who is fake.
Get rid of them all, we can’t find anyone else to do the work.
Qin Fengliang continued: "The reason why this political system is invincible in the game is precisely because in the game, the advantages are infinitely magnified and the disadvantages are infinitely reduced.
"In the game, players often have more From a long-term perspective, there is no personal benefit at all.
“In other words, the personal interests of the players and the interests of the country are absolutely consistent. They both want to win the entire game and kill other countries.
"Players basically don't have to worry about being seized by a coup or having their personal interests damaged.
"In addition, because the data in the game is transparent, what players see is real data, so they can directly make decisions based on the actual situation. Make decisions.
“Rather than playing the role of an enlightened emperor in a feudal society, it is better to say that the player is playing the role of an omniscient, omnipotent, selfless god.
“Wise and efficient, there are no shortcomings at all. ? "
Lilith understood somewhat: "I understand, but...will this help the game we want to make? ”
Qin Fengliang smiled slightly: "It's simple, Mr. Li, can't we just do the opposite?"
