Chapter 153: Lilith's Suggestion (Four More Requests for a Monthly Pass!) )
Gu Fan said excitedly: "Mr. Li, this two-player mode is the true essence of this game!"
"I even think that the negative emotions that can be generated in the duo mode should be more than three times that in the solo mode!"
Lilith was a little surprised: "Does that mean players can generate more negative emotions when they play in two-player mode?" Why? If two people fight together, the difficulty of the battle in this game should be reduced, right? ”
Gu Fan explained: "The enemy attributes in the two-player mode will also be adjusted, but this is not the point.
"The essence of the two-player mode is that the two players don't share a field of vision, they only see a fixed field of vision.
"One can only see the world of Xianxia, and the other can only see the world of science fiction."
Lilith instantly understood: "Oh! That is, they will see the other person do something unbelievable, such as giving intestines to the corpse of a puppy?
"In addition to that, the goals of the two of them are completely opposite, so one person fighting monsters is killing NPCs in the eyes of the other, while the other person is doing tasks normally, but in the eyes of the former person, they are causing trouble......
"If you play like this, you will definitely end up with friends, and negative emotions will naturally arise!"
Gu Fan nodded: "Yes, this is a top-level effect that can only be seen under the game mechanic of "Ascension"!"
"And there's no game like that on the market yet.
"A big reason for this is that this requires two sets of art assets, which directly doubles the cost of art resources compared to the development cost of a normal game.
"But our art resources come from hell, so there's no such problem."
Lilith frowned and asked, "Isn't that good news that there are no games like this on the market?"
"Will it attract a lot of players?"
Gu Fan smiled slightly: "Isn't this exactly the effect you want, Mr. Li?"
"The more people come to play, the more negative emotions are generated!
"When the time comes, we can go crazy with a wave of marketing, blow up the new engine and the mechanics of the two worlds, and combine it with the reputation we have accumulated in our previous games, and we will definitely be able to trick as many players as possible into the initial stage!
"When the time comes, Mr. Li, you will send it!"
An uncontrollable smile appeared on Lilith's face, and it was clear that she had already made up for the beautiful scene when tons of negative emotions came in.
She went through the design of "Ascension" from beginning to end.
I have to say that Gu Fan did complete her requirements perfectly, the three harsh conditions were all met, and she also made new ideas, and she did hand over a full score answer sheet.
"Mr. Li, do you have any other suggestions? But it doesn't hurt to say that. Gu Fan said very calmly.
Lilith fell silent.
As a Party A, if she says "no suggestions" at this time, it is definitely an unqualified Party A.
But the plan given by Gu Fan seems to be really comprehensive, and even Lilith feels that it is difficult to design such a vicious game if she is allowed to design it herself.
What do you suggest?
After thinking for a moment, Lilith suddenly had a flash of inspiration and thought of something.
"There's a suggestion.
"That's it...... When developing this game, can you help me develop a special modding tool along the way?
"It's the kind that allows me to defeat these monsters."
Gu Fan nodded: "What kind of requirement is this, there is already it."
"In order to better test it, we would have made a simple modification program, with functions such as blood lock and one-hit kill."
Lilith shook her head: "No, I mean to say, it's better not to have the kind of tools that directly lock blood or kill with one hit, and make some of the game more difficult, but not too much......"
Gu Fan knew in his heart, why did Lilith make such a strange suggestion?
Obviously, it's the demon's suspicious personality that is at work!
So far, Lilith has not trusted Gu Fan at all, so no matter how reliable this game seems and how it can collect negative emotions, Lilith can't be completely reassured.
After all, this game was designed by Gu Fan, so Lilith must try it herself.
The reason why she never made a similar request before was because she designed the games before, and she knew all the design details very well, and the design draft could not be modified at all.
If something really goes wrong, it will be easy to arrest Gu Fan.
But this time, the design draft was written by Gu Fan.
The design is dozens of pages long, and the various functions in it are quite complex.
Not to mention whether Lilith can read them all, even if she does, she may not be able to understand all the mechanics, and if something goes wrong then, won't it be troublesome?
Even if Lilith came to Gu Fan Xingshi to ask for the guilt, Gu Fan could also say, "The design plan has been written a long time ago, and you didn't understand it yourself."
So, Lilith thought about it and felt that to be safe, she also had to try out the game and find out what to do.
But if it's a general modifier, if you directly change it to lock blood or kill it with one hit, you may not be able to detect anything, and it's easy to miss a lot of details.
That's why Lilith wanted a modifier that "lowers the difficulty but not too much".
However, Gu Fan didn't show it, he just continued to maintain a puzzled expression, and didn't seem to think about it.
"Of course you can do it.
"For programmers, there is no program in the world that cannot be done, but there are two things: first, how much time and resources are you willing to give programmers to do it; Second, do you mind that there are a lot of bugs after this thing is made?
"If you want to be more detailed, this modifier might be a bit complicated to operate and use, can you?"
Lilith was silent, the answer was obviously not quite good.
"Can't you just do it in the game? For example, adding a special item or a special code can be easily activated.
"Just wait until the game is released and then delete the code."
The corners of Gu Fan's mouth twitched slightly: "Do you know that deleting code is a rather painful thing...... Well, since Mr. Li asked for it, then I'll try it as much as I can. ”
Lilith was delighted and continued, "One more suggestion is to add some illusions!
"It's a bit too benevolent to switch between the two worlds at a certain time, and I think it's okay to intersperse hallucinations in between.
"For example, when the player is cultivating the immortal world, the science fiction world will flash in his vision from time to time; The reverse is also true.
"Or there will be auditory hallucinations, so that the world of cultivating immortals will play the sound effects of the science fiction world.
"In short, these illusions will seriously interfere with the player's thinking and immersion, further create more negative emotions, and make the most of the setting of the two worlds!"
Gu Fan couldn't help but sigh: "Sure enough, you are better at not being a person or Mr. Li." ”
Lilith waved her hand: "Oh, Mr. Gu, you are not far behind." ”
The two of them looked at the game design in front of them, and each let out a villain laugh.
"Okay, then it's finalized, let's get ready for development!"
……
……
Monday, October 21st.
In order to make up for sleep, Gu Fan slept for twelve hours in one go, and his head was still a little groggy after getting up.
came to the office villa, handed over the design plan to Xiao Mingyu, asked her to print it all, and then handed it over to everyone.
While others were looking at the plan, Xiao Mingyu also began to report to Gu Fan on the recruitment of personnel.
"Mr. Gu, after we issued a recruitment notice last week, we have now received more than 100 resumes, and I have screened them a little and screened out more than 40 that are more qualified.
"But in the past few days, new resumes have been sent in one after another."
Gu Fan nodded: "Well, I'll take a look." ”
He opened the resumes on his computer and started looking at them.
After a simple sweep, it can only be said that it is a normal level, and there are no particularly eye-catching talents.
This may be because the current income of Reverse Heaven is still kept secret from the outside world, and you don't know the specific way to distribute bonuses here, but you just know that this is a single-player game production company that has succeeded several games in a row.
Otherwise, the number of people who submit resumes should have to be at least several times more.
However, Gu Fan doesn't really want to hype this up at the moment.
He simply picks out a few resumes and prepares them for an interview.
At this moment, Xiao Mingyu came over again.
"By the way, Mr. Gu, there is one more thing. We also received some internal referrals on our side, which I also printed out separately.
"What's more interesting is that most of them are from Shengjing Group.
"For example, this producer Wei Chengjie."
