Chapter 1: A World of Déjà Vu (Part I)
That's right, Hede is a very cliché and rotten street traveler, and the specific situation has to go back to two days ago. At that time, Hede was still a very peaceful member of the Earth family.
"Failed, even my own life plan failed......", Hide depressed and returned to his rented house.
After graduating from high school, he entered various training classes with dreams to learn game design, art, music, planning, and everything, and was full of ambition to make domestic boutique games and become a top game designer!
But although the dream is very full, the reality is always very skinny.
On this day, he took his most proud work to the largest game company in China to recommend himself. I dream of being seen by them, and maybe I can get into the game that the company has designed itself.
But Zuihou turned out to be ......
"How do you set up elves to be militants? Everyone knows that elves are the kind of handsome men and women with long ears who are weak and docile and love nature, how can you do that?" asked the company's game director with a look of hesitation.
"Yes, in my setting, the elves worship nature, but we also know that nature is never peaceful. The so-called nature is a typical survival of the fittest, natural selection, nature is actually the most cruel embodiment of the law of the jungle. The Elven Race's philosophy is to let the light of nature envelop the entire land, and the Elves have extraordinary physique and arcane talents, long lifespans and abundant natural resources, so it is normal for such a race to become strong and prosperous......"
"How is this possible? Since your shijie setting is a fantasy setting, it is natural that the elves should be kind and beautiful, which is the established traditional setting. In addition, this shijieweishenme doesn't have orcs, dwarves, demons and the like?
"No, I'm going to use another way to elaborate on the concepts of orcs, dwarves, demons, etc., just a little later......"
“...... You're, aren't you? Not many people can accept this kind of setting, right?"
"But today's players are tired of the same setting, and I think we should make a breakthrough in the background setting of Shijie and use innovative concepts to attract the new generation of players......" Hade tried to describe his own concept.
The game director was noncommittal and continued to experience Hide's work.
"The system is very complicated, and there are twenty branch choices for a single instruction, which is completely unnecessary. If you really want to make it, players will definitely drop the keyboard. ”
"Well, I think this will make the development direction more extensive and bring players a different kind of fun to explore and develop......"
The other party shook his head: "I think it's just annoying." And you have designed so many props, Warcraft, and resources, which makes people look big. ”
"All in all, game design is not something you do, you have to go the professional route, either as a planner, or as an artist, as a program, or even as a musician, but don't think that you can do it all by yourself. Let's think carefully about where we go from here. "Zuihou, the game director was kind enough to give Hide the right advice.
It turned out that he had taken a fork in the road in the past few years, and his efforts in the past few years had basically been useless, how could this make Hede not depressed.
With a sigh, Hade silently opened the backup on his computer, ready to take a look at what he had made. Although this is still a rough semi-finished product and a failure.
In order to prepare for today's self-recommendation, Head painstakingly conceived the entire game shijie background, just the script, setting, these text materials are no less than a million words, carefully designed many main characters with distinctive personalities, with exquisite illustrations, and many fantasy elements into the game shijie setting, and then try to sprout the various races and main and secondary characters that appear in the game, and try their best to make their works can take the commercial route.
But now it's all in vain.
Hide is a man who is quite emotional about the things he loves, and in his own opinion, designing a virtual shijie of a game is like a legendary god creating shijie. Now he had to destroy this shijie that he had created with his own hands, including the endless lives inside, although in the eyes of ordinary people, these were just a bunch of virtual data.
Sometimes Hade often wonders, is the fantasy shijie imagined by humans really just a fantasy?
Is it possible that there really is such a fantastical parallel shijie in the mysterious vast universe?
Is it possible that the fantasy that we humans think is an unknown way to project the information of that real fantasy shijie into our minds, so that human beings have these fantasy concepts?
At least Hed himself often sees in his dreams those creatures that only appear in fantasy, they have strange appearances and abilities, have their own lives and kingdoms, have different values, and have their own joys, sorrows, and sorrows.
Like humans, they are advanced intelligent beings that have evolved over a long period of time, and they live together in the shijie of sword and magic, and continue to develop along a unique historical and cultural trajectory, everything is vaguely between reality and fantasy.
Every time he dreams of these fragmentary images, Hede will always burst out with a lot of inspiration, and then integrate these plump image concepts into his own game Shijie.
"Maybe it's just my fantasy of reading too many novels and playing too many games. Hade smiled self-deprecatingly and sighed slightly.
"A shijie has been destroyed......", Hade moved all the folders related to this plan in the mouse circle, silently clicked the complete delete button on the screen, and watched the delete progress bar flash rapidly.
Suddenly, the computer screen flashed white.
..................................................................
"Calm down, you must be calm, hide first and wait for everything to be over. "Having regained consciousness, Hade immediately noticed a lot of anomalies.
In the sparsely planted wasteland area, there were nearly 100 corpses lying around, and two teams of men and horses were fighting about two or three hundred meters away.
Hed felt that he might be a bit cold-blooded by nature. How to say it, I remember a year ago I happened to bump into the scene of a car accident with a friend, and when I saw the bloody scene, the burly and strong man friend next to me who was close to 1.9 meters tall vomited on the spot, and I didn't eat for three days, but Hade himself didn't feel anything, and he still ate as usual and slept better.
The same is true now, Hede lowered his body and crouched in the pile of corpses, while paying attention to the people and horses fighting nearby, while looking at the strange "dead people" around him, although he must have been scared in his heart, but he only felt slightly uncomfortable with this bloody scene.
"This one must have died an orc, with a tiger tail peeking out of his buttocks...... It should be a tiger orc, but this orc actually has two pairs of ears, and there is a pair of ears similar to human ears under the tiger's ears, and the hair is not too thick......"
"These are supposed to be elves, but these elves don't have long ears, and most of the others are humans, and they all look like refugees......"
The corpses in the vicinity were obviously not the set of a fantasy blockbuster, and this Hand was sure that the makeup props could not be so real.
Just now, Hade had already determined through a very simple method that he must have crossed the weight of life, because when he woke up, he found that he had changed a little, his hands and feet were shorter and thinner, and the slight beer belly that he had caused because he was too lazy to exercise and irregular diet was gone.
So he picked up the half-truncated blade on the ground, and saw his current appearance through the shiny blade as a mirror, and found that he had become the same as he used to be a teenager, a slightly thin black-haired boy of thirteen or fourteen.
While paying attention to the pile of scuffling guys two or three hundred meters away, Hede slowly moved his body, pulled a poor man who turned around, and slowly peeled off his very rudimentary clothes that seemed to be woven of rough materials.
That's right, Hede is changing his clothes. He's now sure he's crossed over to some other world, but luckily he only wore a pair of pants at home because of the hot weather, so as long as he changes into the clothes of the natives here, he won't leave any suspicious flaws.
Except for clothes, Head looked around and couldn't find anything useful. These dead refugees-like humans and half-elves were all ragged, yellow-skinned, and didn't even have a wooden stick by their side, let alone any financial blades.
There was a Tiger orc-like soldier in heavy armor nearby, but just now Hide tried to pull the orc's big sword that fell to the side, and he couldn't pick it up, let alone the thick armor on his body or the huge shield that was broken in the corner next to him......
"On one side is the multiracial coalition...... But the elves seem to have a ......lot longer ears than the dead ones on the ground, right? It was strange that his eyesight seemed to have improved, knowing that he had been slightly short-sighted, but now he could see the length of the elves' ears peeking out of his helmet from such a distance.
The number of elves was relatively small, and there were only eighty of them on the Hide side. Half of them rode tall unicorn-like animals, dressed in elaborate light armor woven with rattan, and ten of them held staffs, and from time to time they were seen casting various blue-green light auxiliary or offensive spells, and the other thirty were archers with bows and arrows. These ranged attackers are all moving back and forth around the perimeter, casting spells, or constantly interspersed with cold arrows.
The other half was riding a beast mount with a length of more than six meters and a shape similar to a saber-toothed tiger, each holding a semicircular bone scimitar with a length of more than one and a half meters. The vine armor on these elven knights was even thicker, and it was covered with strange leaf-like armor, but these dark blue leaf-like armor pieces were not pure plants, they appeared extremely tough and emitted a strange blue-green glow.
These elven cavalry were extremely fast, not to mention the impact was also very strong, and with the help of various auxiliary spells cast by the elves with magic staff in the rear, the elves who were slightly inferior in numbers suppressed the multi-racial coalition side with nearly a hundred numbers instead.
