6: Try playing the game, something is wrong?
“You want to play a game?”
“Yes!”
“Alright, then get me a cup of coffee.”
“…”
Liu Meiqin’s mouth twitched.
She felt that her boss was truly treating her like a slave.
Making her do everything.
“Here, boss, your coffee.”
She made Jiang Feng a cappuccino.
Liu Meiqin’s eyes were full of anticipation.
Jiang Feng waved his hand:
“Go to the testing department, the game has already been installed for you.”
“Yay!”
Liu Meiqin cheered and jogged towards the testing department.
Illusion Dream Game Studio was not large, but it was fully equipped.
There was a dedicated room with three VR devices for testing.
Liu Meiqin lay down and closed her eyes.
Soon, she saw the game screen.
Endless clouds pressed down, and suddenly a sword light flashed, piercing through the clouds.
An ancient-style man in white, stepping on a Flying Sword, drifted in, looking heroic and distinguished.
“So handsome!”
Liu Meiqin cheered.
Putting everything else aside.
The opening scene was certainly grand.
【Create Character】
Liu Meiqin spent 60 minutes customizing her face.
Jiang Feng, who was sipping coffee and watching, was speechless.
No, does anyone really spend that long customizing a face?
Isn’t it just a matter of randomizing and picking one that looks decent?
He couldn’t understand at all.
【mystical world: the rise of the weak】
【This game is a DEMO version, the specific performance does not match the actual version】
As two lines of text appeared on the screen.
The camera continuously descended from the towering clouds.
Soon, a small town with thousands of people appeared on the screen.
It was ancient and quaint, with people coming and going, looking quite lively.
Liu Meiqin, however, frowned:
“How is this any different from heroes in troubled times?”
heroes in troubled times, as Illusion Dream Game Studio’s debut work, was also a meticulously polished creation.
Over a million yuan was invested in AI.
Just to build a small town.
This town was naturally vivid, as if it truly existed.
If released to players, it would definitely garner a loyal fanbase.
But the problem was.
Antarctic Studio had invested even more money.
Their finished product would only be better.
“Boss, it can’t be that only the opening screen was changed, right?”
Liu Meiqin’s brows were tightly furrowed.
Soon, the character she controlled appeared.
It was a woman of breathtaking beauty, dressed in a martial arts uniform.
Liu Meiqin took a breath and could smell the surrounding odors.
A turbid smell.
Sweat, foot odor, sour rags… things in the martial arts hall mixed together, forming a nauseating smell.
Liu Meiqin pinched her nose, then felt the touch on her nose and fingertips.
She tested it again; all five senses were normal, no bugs.
From this perspective, this game was indeed a modern vr game, with a sales floor.
The problem was.
In the Ancient Style Game Development Competition.
Just having a floor wasn’t enough.
“Let’s try again, there must be new tricks, right?”
Liu Meiqin’s character began to move.
vr games and traditional games have fundamental differences.
Her physical body was lying in the VR pod, while her consciousness entered the game.
The character was almost equivalent to herself, capable of any action.
She quickly identified her surroundings: a small room in the martial arts hall, filled with brooms, staffs, and other sundries, with only a small door and no windows. It seemed she was confined.
Liu Meiqin’s brows furrowed even more.
This was the opening of heroes in troubled times.
The protagonist is initially confined, then a servant comes to humiliate her, the protagonist rises in resistance, and the first battle begins.
“Could it be that nothing was changed?”
Liu Meiqin muttered to herself.
It was indeed a good thing that her boss hadn’t given up.
But given the current state of the game.
Seven days later, he would still have to give up.
Alas, what a worry.
Thump-thump-thump!
At this moment, footsteps came from outside the room.
The servant is here?
Liu Meiqin swung her fists.
According to the original plot, the combat System would be introduced soon.
Although vr games allow players to be immersed and perform all actions.
Players always play as formidable characters.
Such as Martial Artists, snipers, pilots, and so on.
Expecting players to figure things out on their own is not making a game, it’s running an online course.
Therefore, vr games have an auxiliary System.
As long as the player makes the corresponding starting pose and combines it with the thoughts in their mind.
They can trigger the game’s auxiliary System, guiding the player to complete the action.
In excellent games, the auxiliary System is also very well done, with clear levels and natural transitions.
heroes in troubled times also put a lot of effort into this aspect.
There is a martial arts practice System that requires players to continuously practice to unlock more action assists.
In the first level with the servant, basic boxing techniques would be unlocked.
“Peerless Beauty, are you awake?”
The servant opened the door, and his voice came through.
Hearing the name, Liu Meiqin was stunned.
Then she realized, this was the name she had chosen for herself.
Why did it feel a bit embarrassing?
“Awake, awake! Come on, let’s have a fight, quickly activate the tutorial!”
Liu Meiqin assumed a stance, chuckling.
The servant frowned: “Peerless Beauty, what are you going crazy for? Why should I fight you?”
The NPCs in the game all have AI.
They can automatically filter out the player’s nonsense.
No matter what the player says, they can respond, which is quite impressive.
“You won’t fight me? The plot has changed?”
Liu Meiqin suddenly understood; her boss had indeed done something.
The Newbie tutorial had been changed.
“Fight what? Cultivators from Duan Kong Cave are here to select two Disciples. Everyone is called to go over, hurry up, don’t delay things.”
Duan Kong Cave?
Cultivator?
Liu Meiqin’s expression became confused.
This part was not in the original plot of heroes in troubled times.
Undoubtedly, this was something Jiang Feng had added.
She quickly followed the servant to the martial arts hall’s main hall.
At this moment, dozens of martial arts apprentices were neatly lined up, not daring to breathe loudly.
The usually authoritative Old Master of the martial arts hall was also meekly standing below, like a minion.
At the highest seat was a Young man in black wearing ancient clothes, looking no older than eighteen.
Liu Meiqin’s eyes darted around, surveying the surroundings, trying to see if there were any modeling bugs.
She walked to the front, curiously looking at the Young man in black: “Are you the new tutorial instructor the boss added?”
The martial arts apprentices below immediately changed their expressions.
The Old Master was also shocked: “Peerless Beauty, come down quickly!”
Liu Meiqin hadn’t reacted yet.
She saw the Young man in black snort coldly: “Rude.”
The next moment, he raised his hand.
A strong gust of Qi suddenly rose, fiercely striking Liu Meiqin!
Liu Meiqin was completely knocked backward.
She rolled three times on the ground.
Hitting the wall.
Only then did she stop.
However, she was already lifeless.
【Death】
Seeing the two large characters appear on the screen.
Liu Meiqin’s expression was one of bewilderment and confusion.
Since she had set the physical sensation to 5%, she didn’t feel much discomfort.
But this sudden death still left her utterly baffled.
No, I’m still a beginner.
Shouldn’t there be beginner protection?
Isn’t that NPC a beginner instructor?
Why did he instantly kill me?
This isn’t right, is it?
Boss, do you even know how to make games?
