Chapter 24: Consumerism

Lisa-senpai is not a procrastinator, and with a new language draft in mind, she began to refine the whole plan.

This new set of languages is let's call it The Sims language.

There are relatively few sound elements in this language, and they are basically "uh-huh-ahhhhhhhh However, "Uh-huh-ahhh

That's right, eight tunes.

In this way, although there are only two basic sounds, "uh-huh", with the change of intonation, it can be regarded as sixteen unique sounds.

Sixteen individual voices isn't a lot, but it's enough to make a game like The Sims, which isn't particularly complicated.

Lisa didn't do this entirely because she wanted to be lazy, to finish the mission early and then play The Sims.

Rather, it's because of the capacity of the computer.

After discussing with Richie, Takahashi and Richie decided not to record complete sentences, but only "Mmmmmmmm

However, this means that no technology can remedy the strange sense of disruption.

However, after a little testing, I found that this strange sense of interruption, and the demonic uh-huh-ah, seem to have another magical power.

If a player plays a game by listening to this sound, they will forget even what to say after playing for hours.

That's what Richie did!

But......

Of course, such a simple sample can't really be used in the game.

Xiao Ai is still very strict with the PC version of The Sims.

Therefore, Xiao Ai decided to prepare a special room for recording in the basement of this villa.

During the day, when Takahashi and Xiao Ai went to class, this underground recording studio began to be renovated.

Thick soundproof cotton is laid on the walls and ceiling of the shed, with protruding protrusions that are said to absorb excess sound.

Outside of this small soundproof cotton room, the room separated by a large glass is the room where the monitoring is carried out.

What is said in another room will reach the ears of the people in this room through wires.

Some stupid Richie didn't know how much these things would cost, but Lisa-senpai wasn't a fool, and her whole jaw dropped when she saw the basement recording room, which was a little small, but the interior decoration and equipment were superb.

You know, that small recording studio may be more expensive than this whole house. She became more and more suspicious of what John and her wife were all about.

First of all, they can't be American high society!

Little love is still possible!

After all, she majored in literature with little practical value.

But Takahashi studied computer science, and you must know that in the relatively upper-class society, it is good to study philosophy at the high-end and lawyer at the low-end.

A very pragmatic major, such as computer science, is basically not learned.

Lisa's heart gradually became judgmental, and she suspected that John and Xiao Ai were probably the princes of some third world country.

At the same time, he made up a series of plots of forced marriage, escape from marriage and true love.

The more she thought about it, the more moved she became, and finally convinced herself that she chose to do everything in her power to help the pair of prince and Cinderella in distress.

A woman's brain circuit is sometimes so strange that it is incomprehensible.

If Takahashi knew what was going on in Lisa's mind, he would definitely think that Lisa had played too much of The Sims.

The kind of love story between a prince and a princess, a prince and Cinderella in real life.

is like Pu Songling's chat, which satisfies the fantasies and desires of poor scholars. The so-called Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella are just fantasy stories used to satisfy girls.

"Hmm!"

"Ahh

"Uh-huh!"

"Ahhh

"Huh?"

"Huh?"

"Okay, that's a good recording!" Takahashi took off Sennheiser's monitor headphones and gave a thumbs up to Rich on the other side of the glass.

Although I want to save as much capacity as possible, in order not to make the voice of the game too monotonous, it is still necessary to record several sets of male and female voices separately.

Starting from the children's sound, then to the Lori Luo Taiyin, to the royal sister sound, and then to the aunt and uncle sound.

It took a week for all ages and different styles to organize.

Xiao Ai is responsible for children's voices and Lori sounds because of her relatively young voices.

And Lisa, who has a good language talent and acting ability, recorded many different voices.

Compared with the female parts with good voices, Takahashi and Richie's side are a little worse. The recording took a total of a week, also mainly because of Takahashi and Richie.

In the end, though, it all went smoothly.

The result of a week's hard work was finally packaged into a five-megabyte voice packet.

Although five megabytes will be the size of a photo taken by a mobile phone in more than ten or twenty years, it may be the capacity of an MP3 with poor sound quality.

However, compared to the era two or three years ago, you still have to use two or three trillion of capacity to make a game and make a masterpiece.

Five megabytes of audio is definitely a luxury.

However, when Takahashi lamented this luxury, Sister Lisa Xu lamented the extravagance of other things.

"Don't you need that recording studio?" asked Lisa.

"The recording has been recorded, and I won't need it for the time being. Takahashi replied.

"This ...... It's a waste......" Lisa-senpai looked at the intersection leading to the basement and felt pain in her chest.

To be honest, Lisa-senpai, who has been addicted to the PC version of The Sims, has begun to wonder a little bit about the difference between reality and games.

In The Sims PC game, she also fell deep into the abyss of consumerism.

The character she manipulates, working twenty hours a day and sleeping only four hours, can be said to be working with her life and exchanging her life for money.

And then what do you do with the money?

Buy a bed for 10,000!

Oh, my God!

Even though he only sleeps four hours a day, he actually buys such an expensive bed.

Richie had also curiously asked Lisa why she wanted to buy the best bed, and she couldn't sleep long after she bought it.

Sister Lisa said that she didn't care, if she wanted to buy it, she would buy the best, and she could continue to earn it when the money was gone!

The role she manipulated, bought a house, bought a car, and after buying the car, she had to ride to work because of a traffic jam.

Finally, when this character was thirty-four years old, he took out a loan for thirty-two years to buy a huge cement cage, and on the day of his thirty-fourth birthday, he was dismissed, and he died suddenly in his huge cement cage.
