"Too fast?"

"Yes."

Suddenly received a call from his boss at night, and Chen Xueliang was a little confused. After thinking about it, he said, "Isn't it good?" ”

Zhou Heng said: "But at the cost of this, some game life has also been lost. ”

"Game life?"

"Yes, maybe the game will be on the rise for many years, but with the current state of development, maybe it will reach its peak in a year or two, and then it will inevitably show a downward trend." Zhou Heng said nonsense.

"Oh......"

"What do you think the normal development process looks like?"

"Normal development process...... Mr. Zhou, do you mean that its network function was launched too early? ”

"Yes, that's what it means," Zhou Heng said, "what do you think it should be?" ”

"I think...... I think it will be released as an indie game first. Chen Xueliang said, his eyes suddenly lit up, "By the way, according to the normal process, the network function will definitely not be online so early!" ”

"When is it going to be launched?"

"At least four or five years! This should definitely be the fault of the original game planning, he should not have added the player interaction link so early, because the original game should actually only need the online community function. ”

"You mean He Lei?" Zhou Heng asked, "So how many years are there?" ”

"Definitely for a few years, huh...... Three and a half years, at least three and a half years, he murdered the game for three and a half years of gameplay! ”

"Are you sure?"

"Sure."

Although there is actually no ink in his stomach, because of his hostile relationship with He Lei, Chen Xueliang tried his best to speak ill of He Lei to Zhou Heng; Zhou Heng didn't know his thoughts. After getting the news he wanted, he hung up the phone.

Look at the unread text messages that are still bouncing on the screen. Zhou Heng nodded thoughtfully.

"And so it was. This game was actually an indie game in the beginning. But it was later changed to an online game. ”

"Is there a difference?"

"Of course there is a difference," Zhou Heng said, "Judging from the setting of this game, 'Wind Country' was designed like this by me in that world, probably to build a world system with autonomous space transfer rules." If you use this clue as a starting point, adding a 'crossing' character should also have some benefits. ”

"Indeed." The main god agreed, "Although the concept of 'crossing' is not explicitly explained in the game, the concept of zài is still there. This world can also be further identified as a 'world where space travel can be carried out'. ”

"Yes, that's what I'm trying to say." Zhou Heng said, "If I in that world specially added this setting with this problem in mind, then it is impossible that he will not take into account the 'authenticity' that the protagonist himself does not have." ”

"You mean ......"

"In that world, Wind Nation was a single-player game." Zhou Heng said, "Although it later became the same as our "Wind Country", but before that, it did not have the setting of an online game. I didn't quite understand why I didn't just make it into an online game, but now I understand that the ontology of "Wind Country" should still be a standalone game. Those networking features should be added after using it to determine the game world. ”

"Indeed, there is a possibility."

"I became the world's largest game company in two years, and it wasn't until the third year that the game was officially online. Then when he carries out the material transfer between the two spaces, this game should also be a single-player game. Zhou Heng said, "He Lei only knows what it is, but he doesn't know why." So he didn't directly plan the game as an online game, but directly changed it into a patched stand-alone game. As a game. It's really better when you add the web interactive module; But there is no doubt that the 'reality' of the concept of 'protagonist' should be weakened. ”

This time, the main god did not directly agree: "It's just a change in the theme of the game." This alone doesn't prove that the premise of a single-player game is for this kind of setting, right? ”

"Of course, as you said, the protagonist in an online game will affect his 'reality' because he can't have a unique impact on the game world, but it's not the same in a single-player game. The stories that everyone sees are independent and not directly related to each other. So, this conjecture should be possible. ”

"But even if it's a single-player game, the meaning of the protagonist is still based on providing perspective, right?"

"I think the most important thing about the experience of the work is the environment rather than the subject matter. Online games are a platform for sharing stories, but single-player games are a separate story; Zhou Heng said, "Actually, what you just said is very right, in online games, the theme content of the player's interaction with the game is the platform where most of the players are, not the story itself." But in a single-player game, the player plays more than just a symbol - the player's character doesn't need to interact with other player characters on the same platform, only with the story itself, so in a single-player game, the protagonist is integrated into the story - and I think that's the main reason. ”

"But even so, as the creator of the fantasy, the protagonist himself is above the content of the story, right?"

"We humans are very easy to indulge in fantasy." Zhou Heng thought for a while and said, "Looking overly addicted, maybe you really take the game as real." Besides, there are only two people on the server where that guy is located, so it's natural that he will treat the game as a single player. ”

"So how do you explain Hu Yu's tasks?"

"If you hastily deny it, the phenomenon in front of you can't be explained, right?" Zhou Heng casually said, "Maybe because of the conflict of rules, these realities are denied by other 'realities'." ”

"It seems that this is the only way to explain it."

Although it is not yet certain, this inexplicable traverser has come to a temporary conclusion. Zhou Heng didn't know what kind of protagonist the protagonist in Xiao Huangmao's eyes was, but what he saw in front of him undoubtedly pointed to this. A knight with a barren greatsword, his narrow state of mind makes one wonder how he was promoted to the highest knight; He has a group of top players from various professions as companions, but there is no more and no less than one partner of each profession. What is even more unbelievable is that he is a time-traveler, who has already defeated the desolate dragon, but has become entangled with a group of politicians, and finally quit the stage in the most wolf way.

Only the setting itself can explain his existence. The appearance of such a counterintuitive character is not because of anything else, but because there is such a person in the game setting - because it is the 'real' that appeared before this world was discovered, so he can ignore all kinds of unreasonable places and appear on this otherworldly continent.

Of course, Zhou Heng also thought about finding his origin, but there was no progress. After all, the other world is not the earth, separated by a world, the main god has been trying to find out the world before this guy crossed over, but there has been no progress, and now, Zhou Heng basically has no hope.
