Chapter 417: Have you ever thought about what you look like when you're thirty
On domestic and foreign forums, the discussion of "No One Survives" has been going on since the day of its release, and in addition to the plot, characters and ideological core, there is now another hot topic of discussion, an easter egg in the game. More than 20 days after the game was released, more and more interesting content was also unearthed by them.
According to GameFaq, in the player's discussion post with the most complete collection of easter eggs in the world, there are as many as 69 easter eggs found and confirmed, and there are 73 vague ones that seem to have special meaning but cannot be determined, and players are still trying to find the source of the special points throughout the game. Earlier, Ye Shenxi once asked Chuck, the screenwriter of Salmon Studio, to interview every employee in the branch, and after screening, he placed a lot of easter eggs that can make them laugh and have commemorative value for themselves, which is a display of the company's culture and a reward for the employees, but easter eggs are not only self-hilarity, but also should let players be hi together, and the number of easter eggs that can make players find and smile is much more.
And the easter egg type is not just the graffiti on a corner wall, which is too monotonous, and it also seems to be not very technical, and the sense of surprise brought to players is reduced. According to the exploration of players, there are a lot of types of easter eggs that have been found in "No One Survives".
"The city of Seattle doesn't appear in the game, but in the Empire State Building level in New York City, when we climbed up from a sloping building, there was a piece of glass in the west corner at about 60 meters that could be broken with a weapon, even though it looked like it was the same as anything else that couldn't be broken. It is recommended to use a blunt instrument not to waste bullets, because you need to hit 4 times, and when you hit you can hear the sound completely different from other places, it is estimated that 4 blows is the reason why Fisoa is celebrating its 4th anniversary this year. ”
"There's a hidden room there, it looks like an office, and we can get in after the glass breaks, as shown in the picture...... [I'm pictured], and inside the drawer you can find two medicine boxes, 30 pistol bullets, but none of that matters."
"Yes, the most important thing is this photo, everyone looks at the picture...... [I am also a picture], a group photo of Salmon Studio, there are not many people, but the core ones we all know, Pasca, Xia, Michael Buson, Robin...... It's supposed to be a photo of the studio when it was first created, and it actually put the photos of its own employees into the game. ”
……
"Nobody Survives can read the progress of other Fisoa-developed games in your cloud saves, and they'll complain about you...... I once encountered that when I was loading the reading bar, I was told by the original TIPS of the game: 'Hey, walk carefully, don't fall to your death in Getaway, it's 38 times.'" But only once, I don't know what conditions will have a second time. ”
……
"When I was passing through Texas, I came across a tumbleweed on the road, but it didn't roll in the wind like other tumbleweeds, and I was a little surprised that when I walked over and burned the grass, there was actually a colored egg in it...... I don't think it could be more standard than that. ”
……
"In the secret base of the Resting Empire, their dogmas are written on the walls, the first of which is, 'The first rule of the Resting Empire is not to talk about the Resting Empire.' This comes from the rules of Fight Club in 1999. ”
"When Old White took the medicine, there were only two pills, one blue and one red, obviously the two in "The Matrix", but Old White took all of them......"
"The part where the lockbox is opened underwater, the correct password...... Forget it, let's not talk about it, this is not a guide to avoid spoilers, but if you enter 0619, Fisoa's birthday, although you can't open the lockbox, there will be a special eight-bit sound effect of the birthday song. ”
"There is an old-fashioned arcade machine in the game store, which was originally black-screened, but we followed the plot and connected the power to the room and then went back to use the game console, and it can really play games, it is the 1979 FC version of Galaxian (Little Bee)!"
……
Scenes, graphics, sound effects, special dialogue, action, costumes, command inputs, ...... It's too much.
With the quality of the game itself already recognized, and the number of gamers and the heat of the discussion sufficient, these easter eggs make them enthusiastic about exploration again. These are all tributes to pop culture and the classics that players have experienced, and perhaps they can also make them recall that time for a moment and feel some warmth.
Naturally, there are also a lot of content for Chinese players in the game, such as a believer who believes in the new sect of the game that Tois and Emma meet during their journey, and the doctrine tells them that in three years, the world will be destroyed, volcanoes will erupt, floods the land, and then rebuild, and the congregation will carry the mission of building a new world and continuing civilization...... He waited twelve years.
When talking to him, he would complain, "Three years and three years, three years and three years, twelve years for my brothers!" This kind of is not reluctant to foreign players, just like in the previous "Eternal War", when they heard the line "He is like a dog" in "Eternal War", they were confused, and later with the help of Chinese players over the wall to interpret popular science, they understood where the words came from.
……
……
It has been half a year since Xie Jiaming and Ji Lan's first date, and the trip to Huangpu Playground in June, but the relationship between the two has progressed slowly and has not met Xie Jiaming's original expectations.
Xie Jiaming himself also felt very ...... Hold back, hold panic, that's how it feels.
In the playground that day, the two were actually having fun, and Xie Jiaming could see it from the flushed light on each other's faces. In the haunted house plan that was formulated, his ultimate goal was also achieved, although what was not in line with his expectations at that time was that it was Ji Lan who dragged Xie Jiaming, who was too frightened to move, to move forward with difficulty.
Jia Ming was almost lost at that time, overestimating his psychological quality, his body was a little uncontrollable, let alone his mind, and he had no spare energy to feel the short-lived warm fragrance of nephrite.
But that was the only time the two had held hands so far.
Xie Jiaming didn't know why, after entering the "post-playground era" that day, Ji Lan's attitude towards him was not too obvious and not too obvious from before. Although he is still the male employee who chats with Ji Lan the most outside of work in the company, sometimes he will take a few other friends who eat melons and a group of his friends downstairs to share a table for lunch, Xie Jiaming subjectively thinks that the other people are just decorations to hide people's ears.
Ji Lan will still play games with him, or will he log on to the FG platform after work to open the black in "Eternal War", after "No One Survives" comes out, the two will also spend a lot of time discussing the plot, explaining each other's attitudes to the details of the game, about the easter eggs in the game Xie Jiaming said with a smile, although Ji Lan didn't understand a lot of it, he also listened to it with relish.
But so what, wasn't it the same before, in the relationship between men and women, there was no further progress, as if there was some invisible resistance. Xie Jiaming is not an acute child, but how long has it been, and he needs the relationship to make some substantial progress. In the chat, he began to have more and more hints, and sometimes deliberately involved the topic emotionally, but Ji Lan was also sensitive, and he avoided the past when he felt the change of atmosphere a little, and did not respond positively.
This makes him feel frustrated sometimes, Xie Jiaming feels that he should find Ji Lan to talk about it properly, seriously, openly and honestly, and he can't hold it back. At the same time, he is not a particularly decisive and indomitable person, just like the invitation to go to the playground half a year ago, it also takes a long time of courage to accumulate until he can't bear it anymore and feels that he can't put it off any longer.
Today, Friday, there is still an hour to go, Xie Jiaming pretended to work hard, and his eyes were almost unanimous on Ji Lan's workstation. Frankly speaking, he had no intention of working all day, and he had a day's draft in his heart, what to say, how to say, and what problems to pay attention to, so as not to appear to be small-bellied and careful.
Finally, he saw her move, stood up, and walked towards the door of the company.
It's either a phone call, or a toilet, or a courier, basically nothing else, she is not the kind of girl who goes downstairs to buy snacks to eat during work hours.
Xie Jiaming followed, and sure enough, he saw Ji Lan enter the toilet.
He pretended to dial up and made a call, pacing back and forth in the corridor, guarding the door of the toilet, and his face still pretended that the phone could not be reached and was very anxious, and maybe some of it was not pretended.
Then he began to think that if it was a small solution, it should be okay, and if it was a large one, it would be a little embarrassing if the atmosphere was not suitable for heart-to-heart communication just after it was solved...... At such a moment, it is understandable that there are many ideas.
Fortunately, when he was still correcting, Ji Lan had already walked out. The girl buried her head and looked up to see Xie Jiaming, she was a little startled, but seeing that he was on the phone, she didn't stop to communicate, and walked directly to the office.
Xie Jiaming was anxious, and said, "Stop!" Blurted out.
Ji Lan turned his head with a question mark on his face.
"No, wait a minute." Xie Jiaming put the phone back in his trouser pocket and walked up to Ji Lan, "Are you free, I want to talk to you." ”
Ji Lan hesitated for a moment and pointed to the office: "I haven't finished my work today......
"So, are you free after work?" Xie Jiaming asked again.
"Maybe I'll have to work overtime, there's a bit of stuff today."
"How long will it take?"
"Not sure, maybe two hours, maybe longer."
"Then I'll wait for you?"
"Is it something important?"
"It's important, it's very important."
"That'...... I'll try to finish it as soon as possible. ”
"Good!"
……
It wasn't until about nine o'clock in the evening that Ji Lan finally finished the work, and now there were only two of them left in the entire company.
"Hungry, let's find a place to eat first."
"First?"
"Eat and talk."
"I'd better go home and eat, I don't feel very hungry, you can send me home, let's walk for a while, talk while walking."
"It's a little cold......"
"Be cold and sober, I'm dizzy when I work overtime, I didn't say cold to a girl, you're a man......"
"Let's go."
"Eh, by the way, you're riding a bicycle, what about the battery bike?"
"I'll just come to the company tomorrow and ride back."
"Let's go, turn off the lights and lock the door."
The two walked out of the hall of the office building, in December, there was a bit of a Christmas atmosphere, on the streets of Huangpu, there were many office lights on, neon flashing, the city was going to sleep early, and there were many men and women walking side by side with them on the street.
Ji Lan ran two steps forward, moved his body, and raised his hands high: "Ah, I really want to resign, I have been working overtime every day recently." ”
Xie Jiaming was shocked when he heard this: "Resign? You're not serious, are you? ”
Ji Lan turned around: "I've been thinking about it for two or three months. ”
Xie Jiaming had a bad premonition in his heart, but he felt that it shouldn't be, and it was still pleasant to chat and play games.
"Why?"
"We have been working for four years, and we feel that we graduated at the age of twenty-two after finishing college, and we obviously feel that we have only been working for a long time, and our wages have not increased much, and we have not climbed to any position, but we are twenty-six in the blink of an eye, and we are thirty in four years, you know what it means for women to be thirty years old."
"Hmm......" Xie Jiaming nodded.
"Do you think it's useless for us to go to college, I have four years less work experience than others, and I feel like I'm getting old even if I'm a semi-newcomer."
"It's still useful."
"What's the use? Like us, the starting point of two or three universities is much higher than that of high school graduates, and it took another four years. ”
"I didn't see you so motivated before......" Xie Jiaming said in a half-joking tone.
"Me...... Motivated...... Jiaming, I didn't say this to myself, I said it to you. ”
Xie Jiaming froze in place......
Ji Lan didn't stop in front: "Let's go, how cold it is to stand still." ”
Xie Jiaming followed in small steps, but his heart had already begun to sink.
He likes to make up the possibilities and directions when he is doing an important thing, but women are far more decisive than men in some cases. Ji Lan's opening to the point also exceeded his preparation. He was originally going to take the initiative by himself, sometimes he could be a little domineering and control the audience, so there should be masculine charm, and occasionally he would pop out a few affectionate words, act at the opportunity, and the number should not be too much, otherwise it will be greasy.
But now the situation is completely different.
"For ...... Why...... Yes to me. This sentence actually doesn't make much sense, it just takes on the role and gives yourself some time to think about how to deal with it.
"Jiaming, have you ever thought about what you will be like when you are thirty years old?" Ji Lan didn't answer the rhetorical question.
"I ...... Thought. ”
"What does it look like?" Ji Lan asked.
Xie Jiaming was speechless again, it was not that he lied without thinking about it, but he did think about it, but what he imagined was not the scene that he could say very calmly in front of the object of his affection.
Fortunately, Ji Lan looked straight ahead and didn't look at him, otherwise he would have seen the panic on his face and a little embarrassed.
Four years after graduation, Xie Jiaming studied at the university in Huangpu, and then stayed here to find a job, and now, his savings are almost 20,000 yuan, which is based on the fact that he usually has no other bad hobbies except for playing games. It's almost the New Year, and when I go back to my hometown for the New Year, I almost have to throw out thousands of dollars, round-trip air tickets, red envelopes, New Year's goods, and the cost of seventy-seven eighty-eight.
According to his current development momentum, the company's leaders are optimistic about him, if he continues to stay here for another four years, the chances of being promoted to management are not high, and he also knows that he is not a person with management ability. At that time, the total net worth and disposable cash was estimated to be no more than 50,000.
If you want to increase your salary, you can basically rely on job hopping, but the cost of job hopping is not low, you can go to the interview while going to work, but you also have to take a lot of leave, and then there is a probation period that may be three months or half a year's discounted salary, which is not lower than the current salary.
In fact, the most important thing is that his work experience is all in EB design, the company's website forum mall and other graphic design, can be seen, but it will not make people feel how bright, he is not very high in these aspects, or not competitive enough.
