Chapter 15
Listening to Shen Qinghan's words, a strange look appeared on Zhao Ming's face:
"Core?"
"The core of this game is to torture the players."
"Only from the perspective of the Polish Federation can players experience what true despair is."
"Otherwise, no matter which angle you stand from, the Empire or the Federation, it's easy to be censored."
"So I chose the angle of torturing the players."
"However, it's not that we won't open the Empire and other Federation factions."
"We have to wait for the plot of the Polish Federation to end."
"Then players can choose freely."
Then Zhao Ming explained to Shen Qinghan.
The plot at the beginning of the game is indeed to let players play as the Prime Minister of the Polish Federation, controlling the entire country.
But the Empire's army is already approaching, and at this time, the survival of the Polish Federation depends entirely on the player.
At this time, players need to command and mobilize the army and analyze the surrounding situation, which not only allows players to integrate into the game world extremely quickly but also makes players feel that they are equal to the leader of the Empire, the Prime Minister of the Anglo-French Federation, and the leader of the Soviet Federation.
This heavy sense of responsibility, as well as the Prime Minister's start.
Players who get this script.
Must already be imagining using what they have learned in their lives to command the Polish Federation's army, being invincible and conquering everything.
Finally, unifying the world.
The corners of Zhao Ming's mouth curled up.
When the game CG is completely released, players will easily be able to distinguish the two factions.
The Empire and other federations.
The Empire is clearly the invader, while the Anglo-French Federation and the Soviet Federation in the CG are clearly defenders fighting to protect their country.
Therefore.
The idea that other federations are the good guys will be deeply ingrained in the players' minds.
But...
When players find that the Empire's army is advancing rapidly, and they mobilize troops and lay out layers of plans, but cannot defeat the Empire's artillery fire.
The players playing as the Prime Minister of the Polish Federation see the federation behind them, think of the soldiers who fought desperately to defend the country in the sky full of flames; such soldiers must be able to resist the Empire's army.
And when players send out requests for help with full expectations~
Hey~
Guess what~
The home is gone~
Reality will give the players a loud slap in the face.
Let Blue Star players experience what is called the sinister nature of society.
You can't be Prime Minister anymore.
Then you enter the second chapter of the plot.
Because of the demise of the Polish Federation, the protagonist will gain a new identity, and at this time, you can freely choose a faction.
You can choose however you want.
See if you become cannon fodder for the Empire, or cannon fodder for the Anglo-French Federation...
Prime Minister becomes cannon fodder.
This gap in identity will definitely gain a lot of emotion value.
Just think about it.
One second you were still engaging in offense and defense with the leader of the Empire.
The next second, your home is gone, and you become the lowest-level cannon fodder; with one order from the Empire's leader, the protagonist controlled by the player is sent to the front line, and an artillery shell falls.
Boom—
The player can restart.
However, unlike the battlefield in "Normandy Landings" where you only have one life per game.
Immersive plots can be revived, otherwise, it would be impossible for players to clear the game.
Every time a player dies, they will change to a new identity.
Simultaneously entering a new life background.
When a player clears the game, the families of all the characters the player has played will become game CGs, appearing before the player one by one.
Watching the characters they played die because of their own operational errors.
How painful and desperate are the families of the characters who receive the death notice.
Bringing an incomparable impact to the player's soul, interrogating the player's inner heart.
After listening to Zhao Ming's explanation.
???
Shen Qinghan had a face full of question marks.
She couldn't imagine how Zhao Ming could say such cold words with a wicked smile:
"No way?!"
"Are you even human?!"
Zhao Ming spread his hands and said indifferently:
"The more people scold, the more popular it will be."
Actually, anti-war and torturing players can only be considered incidental.
The central idea...
Is to mobilize the players' emotion value.
As long as you get more emotion value, let the players scold; anyway, he won't lose a piece of meat.
And Shen Qinghan.
Just thinking about it made her scalp tingle.
Immersive plots can be revived, and every time you revive, you change your identity; it seems there is no problem.
But Zhao Ming's final move...
This is putting people on a rack to roast.
Because players can be revived, they die recklessly.
And when the news of the character's death reaches home, the scene of the relatives collapsing flashes before the player's eyes constantly.
The heaviness of death will constantly impact and torture the player's inner heart.
The cruelty of war is concretized at this moment.
Who would still look forward to war?
If this doesn't win an award, heaven will not tolerate it.
Shen Qinghan's eyes were full of sighs; this game is really good, but the degree of torturing people... is really ruthless.
No.
I have to hide my information better later.
Otherwise, when netizens scold this guy, they might bring her along... after all, she is the main investor in this game.
The game company boss is like this; in the eyes of netizens, how could she be a good person...
Shen Qinghan looked at Zhao Ming:
"When will the game CG be released?"
"On the day of the competition?"
The "Anti-War Competition" held jointly by the six major federations, because of the difference in time zones, although it starts at the same time, the time zone of each region is different; for example, the Great Xia Federation starts at three in the afternoon.
Zhao Ming touched his chin and said:
"Then on the day of the competition, at noon; let's see Penguin's actions first."
"It's just lunch break."
"There will be many people browsing news, and a game CG, three hours of time."
"Even if the Penguin Group analyzes something."
"They can't make it."
He has the system's database, plus the continuous harvest of emotion values during this period, and it took a week to get the game done.
In three hours, even if they were worked to death, they couldn't copy it.
Not to mention that it's just a game CG, and they don't know the game content at all.
But from the player's perspective.
This game CG can clearly analyze the factions.
The Empire and the Federation.
So that they have an idea for the upcoming game.
Shen Qinghan had no objections and agreed immediately.
Then she took Zhao Ming's virtual helmet and prepared to go home and stay up all night to clear the game.
Zhao Ming was also helpless when he saw this.
Then he opened his phone and ordered the latest model of virtual somatosensory cabin.
If you have money, you have to spend it.
——
Three days later.
Penguin Group, Game Department.
The time was approaching noon.
The games participating in the competition had been released and gone online one after another since the morning; some were paid, some were free, but the eyes of the Great Xia Federation were all focused on the Penguin Group and the Polar Star Games company.
Some netizens made a rough count.
In just ten days.
The money spent by both sides just on hot searches, buying hot searches, and suppressing hot searches had already exceeded one hundred million Federation Credits.
It is very rare in the Great Xia Federation for things to reach this level before the competition even starts.
Other games also lost their temper; after all, the promotion fee alone was enough to make ten or a hundred of them, so what could they do?
When gods fight, mortals suffer.
So today, when the competition started, many netizens and game producers were paying attention to whether Penguin Group's "Ruined Future: 2100" had any new moves, and what kind of game Polar Star Games' new game "World War II: Rise of the Empire" actually was.
However.
It was already noon, which is the time with the most traffic.
But Polar Star Games still had no movement.
Xu Huan was sweating profusely; in three days, they had indeed imagined the plot based on the short CG released by Polar Star Games, but Polar Star Games didn't release the full picture, so he was never at ease.
Seeing that the time had reached 12:03.
Polar Star Games still had no movement, and they had already missed the 12 o'clock hour; Xu Huan gritted his teeth:
"Can't wait any longer."
"Release the DLC."
"Update the installation package."
The others also breathed a sigh of relief and started operating immediately.
A few seconds later.
The update DLC for "Ruined Future: 2100" was pushed to the computers of all players who had downloaded it.
Just one minute later.
Two hot searches rushed into the top three one after another.
#"World War II: Rise of the Empire" Game CG Officially Released! #
#"Ruined Future: 2100" Brand New DLC Update! #
Watching the Polar Star Games game CG hot search at the top of the list, firmly suppressing the DLC update of "Ruined Future: 2100", Xu Huan's head throbbed:
"Damn!"
"Is there no end to it?!!!"
A crappy game CG made it to the top of the list?
Damn it, how much money did they spend?!
End of Chapter
