"I prefer Thief, which is infinitely close to reality, to 3D Super Mario, which is so unreal that it feels unreal, and although the former is so-called real 3D, the latter gives me a better gaming experience! Don't be fooled by the number, who cares if it's 32 or 64? It's the game itself that counts! Longteng is really a conscientious enterprise in the game industry! ”

Brown, the president of KTT in the United States, made a public comment, and at the same time admitted that he was a fan of Dragon Games, which was a farewell from the PC game giant to the TV game giant, and by the way, mocked Nintendo.

As if to deliberately cooperate with Brown, Hayao Nakayama also quipped in a public in Japan: "If President Brown wants to buy a full set of Sega games, it is best to contact me in advance, and I can give you a 20% discount." ”

Far from being as intuitive as the experience itself, this game, which was rated as a silver palace by Popular Software and Game Pass magazines, quickly attracted the first batch of players to buy it at an approachable price.

In Fukuoka City, Kyushu, Japan, there is a Sega game franchise store in the bustling commercial center of the city center, and this day welcomed a special customer, which made the store manager remember it vividly.

This guest wore the large-brimmed hat often worn by fishermen in the suburbs of Fukuoka, but there was no trace of the fishy smell of the sea on his body, his thick arms were full of strength, his knuckles were thick, his skin was rough, and most of his face was hidden in the shadow of the brim, and he spoke even more like gold, and only said one word: "Thief"! ”

If it weren't for the customer's generosity, the clerk would not be willing to receive it, and no one would want to deal with this kind of customer who seems to be unsightly. Because no one knows if the other party will suddenly explode or do something strange.

After the clerk patiently explained that the game disc must be used with the game console. The guest shook his hand and magically threw down a stack of yen with a sufficient amount. Quietly left with the console and game box.

"What a weirdo!" Employees at Sega stores commented that the weirdos had dropped enough cash bills, didn't ask about taxes, didn't take printed ticket stubs, didn't have small gifts to buy machines, and didn't fill out Sega customer registration forms, as the Sega clerks had never seen before.

Without this next scene, this customer would have become the talk of the Sega community after dinner and would soon be forgotten.

Just after the weirdo left. Two customers who were shopping for games in the store whispered, "This person seems to be from the Oda family, and I saw the secret mark on his wrist......"

"Isn't the Oda family a mysterious martial arts family? How could they join the WTO lightly? And I've never heard of people from the Oda family playing games? What's going on? ”

"I don't know...... But judging by his outfit and way of doing things, it should be true, he is likely to be a samurai! ”

The discussion between the two was accidentally overheard by Sega employees, and in surprise, it was passed on to Sega headquarters as a special message, and finally sent to Yang Yun.

"This ...... I've only heard of Japanese martial arts practitioners criticizing Shadow Legends, but I haven't heard of samurai playing Thief. There are many wonders in the world, and the Japanese ...... It's weird! ”

Yang Yun was speechless about this. But he immediately thought of a possibility, could it be that they wanted to study the light and shadow in the game, to simulate the environment in the game, and use it as a tool to stimulate them to study stealth techniques?

Yang Yun guessed correctly. The stranger in costume was concentrating on playing a game, he was not actually a member of the Oda family, and the secret mark on his wrist was also his own brand. Always reminding himself to be firm in his heart to practice martial arts, he even sold his property. Settled near a remote temple in Fukuoka and lived a life of almost isolation.

Samurai is not good. Even if you want to join the periphery of the Oda family organization, you have to have a skill.

Although he used to be a university teacher, he did not receive systematic ninjutsu and martial arts training since he was a child, and he was inferior to others in terms of martial arts, so he could only find a way to prove himself by changing his thinking.

For example, he plans to use his expertise to write a theoretical study "The Art of Concealment in the Shadows", which is also one of the ways to enter the periphery of the Oda family, and modern martial arts families also need someone to conduct martial arts research, he has been thinking about the impact of light and shadow on concealment, and the light and shadow effects of Longteng's scientific and rigorous 3D game engine just help confirm some of his ideas!

If Yang Yun knew that "Thief" might affect a generation of Japanese samurai and ninjas, he would probably laugh out loud, which was almost unimaginable for him, and he could only think of those little thieves playing these games happily and trying to learn the skills of stealing, or those detectives of the Metropolitan Police Department who wanted to see if the game would increase the crime rate of theft in society.

However, the thieves and police officers who bought the game were destined to be disappointed, because the Western fantasy games of the Middle Ages, although they were called thieves, were completely out of the modern world.

"Not worthy of the name!" A group of teenagers laughed and cursed after watching the game "Thief", they are a group of young people wandering on the fringes of society, usually idle, stealing for a living, thinking that they can learn something from the game, but unfortunately there are no theft skills worth learning from in the game, and the techniques of breaking into the house are not in line with modern society at all.

"It's a misleading name......" The officers of the Metropolitan Police Department also shook their heads with a wry smile after playing this game, but they also had some luck in their hearts, this game will definitely not have a negative impact on social security, no wonder the game evaluation is 17+ M level, it may be that the Western magic elements such as zombie vampires make it not suitable for young players.

After all, the people who buy games with a special purpose are a minority, most of them are ordinary players, and most of them are otaku, they are more curious, especially curious about niche and novel games.

Kenji Kobayashi of Fujitsu Tokyo Branch has been making up for his homework every day, and over the years there have been hundreds of Sega SS games, and there are dozens of games that can be on the Silver Palace, and there are many niche, or games that he is interested in, since he defected to the Sega camp, he has been immersed in the game every day after work, and has become a complete otaku.

Kenji Kobayashi also bought the latest "Thief", this game is only sold for 2990 yen, the price is always close to the people, and it is a high-quality game, Kenji Kobayashi is fascinated to play.

"There are two guards here...... Try not to kill people...... Find a way to attract a ...... first Stuffy stick beating, beautiful! I admire myself so much...... Oh no! I shouldn't be walking on the granite and wooden floors that reveal my footsteps, but how do I get through this living room? Let's do it all over again...... What to do, what to do? I know! It turned out to be a carpet ......"

Garrett on the TV screen is constantly discovered by the guards, the game fails, reads the file, starts over, and continues to move forward in a different way, approaching the target location little by little.

Kenji Kobayashi tries not to kill anyone, and strives to pass the test with perfect results, even if he repeats it many times, he never gets tired of it, he loves this kind of game that tests his IQ, this game for him, quite in line with the appetite of players like him who usually boast of his super high IQ, once he plays, he can't stop at all.

The next day at Fujitsu, Katooka, who had been promoted to the head of the after-sales department of computer hardware products, came to the company yawning, and he happened to see Kenji Kobayashi with dark circles under his eyes, and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?" Stealing treasure all night? ”

Kenji Kobayashi was a little embarrassed, although the two were friends, but after all, they had become superiors and subordinates, and some words were not suitable for saying, so he could only laugh awkwardly a few times, no longer answer, and turned around and walked towards his workbench.

Kato Okamoto wanted to hold him and remind him to pay attention to the balance between game and career, but he also yawned a big yawn himself at this time, and the sleepiness that surged quickly changed his mind.

is born from the same root, why is it too anxious to fry each other, he also played "Thief" in the middle of the night, so it's better not to embarrass his subordinate......

It's just that this kind of game,It's really niche.,It has first-person shooter content.,There's also adventure RPG elements.,Although there's a lot of fighting.,But it's not a fierce competition like Pro Evolution Football and The King of Fighters.,So it's only fueled by the media that it's on fire.,Once the recommendation is placed.,Sales will drop very quickly.。

Players are very realistic, the technical content behind "Thief" is not what attracts them to pay for it, this kind of game is enough to play once, experience what is called secret infiltration, and this life is enough.

In fact, they are more concerned about the upcoming "Mission Impossible" in May, will Tom Cruise really imitate the secret infiltration method in the game?

Yang Yun was sitting in the first class of an American Airlines passenger plane flying non-stop from Tokyo to San Antonio, Texas, and he promised O'Neal during last Christmas that he would come to Orlando in person to attend O'Neal's party, and there was also the official authorization of NBALive games.

It's now March, and it's been a full 70 days since his last call with O'Neal, and he is fighting openly and secretly with Nintendo in Japan, Jiang Shaoyun came forward instead of him, and dealt with NBA officials and O'Neal's agent, but unfortunately encountered EA, a strong competitor, and Longteng's actions were restricted in many places.

The NBA basketball game project team at the headquarters of Beijing Longteng made a beta version, Ma Liang handed over the disc to Yang Yun when he came to Japan, Yang Yun is indeed a doppelganger, and he has invested far less energy in NBALive games than in Pro Evolution Soccer, he can only be a dead horse and a live horse doctor now, trying to fight at the end, otherwise this game may really be yellow.
