i really just want to play games

Chapter 146 Night Watch
"Ready, Captain, are you going to come tonight or tomorrow?" Zhang Da replied, and at the same time gestured to the rucksack that Ge Shuhan was carrying.

At the same time, the game screen turned to Su Tong's face. This is a close-up, but you can see that his face is a bit vicissitudes, with a lot of dry skin and freckles on it. Although it is small, it can still be seen clearly .

Barlow was continuing to lament the beauty of the protagonist's face, when he saw Su Tong lower his head slightly, stretch out his right hand to rub the sparse beard on his chin, and at the same time, two options appeared on the game screen.

[Let's kill tonight, a quick battle...]

【According to my original plan, I will disguise myself as a businessman and go tomorrow morning...】

"Ah! It's my favorite option." Barlow laughed, but he immediately fell into a difficult choice.

The first option is definitely a combat-oriented option, and it is estimated that it can be a good one.

But he is not young anymore, and by nature, he prefers the second kind of action that looks very intelligent.

"I just don't know if these two options will affect the ending."

This is what worries Barlow the most.

Since the concept of multi-ending games was proposed, many works have been produced, but there are very few truly large-scale games, and most of them are AVG games with a narrative tone.

Returning the progress of the game to the player is the current development trend of 3A games. This point almost started from the game GTA5. Different action plans will affect the amount of money obtained, which can determine the later game experience.

However, this option of GTA actually has little impact on the future, even very small, and cannot change any ending.

It is "The Witcher 3", which is full of ingenuity and extremely solid, is the master of this RPG narrative style, and it is also the source of Chen Tiancai's most inspiration.

However, this kind of storytelling method must pay attention to a problem, that is, it must be different and the same.

Of course, the ending can be different, but some narrative structures are fixed, so even if there are different options, the story must return to this structural point, otherwise the entire game story will be very loose.

After thinking for a while, Barlow still felt that the second option was more in line with his personality, so he pressed the ○ button to confirm.

The options are over, followed by a cutscene, showing how Su Tong and his group rest in the cave, lighting a fire and grilling the prey they have caught.

After the last frame of the animation was played, the game perspective changed to Su Tong's body again, and then he said: "Get ready to rest, change your clothes early tomorrow morning and start with me. Zhang Da and I will keep watch tonight, and the rest will continue as usual."

Su Tong stood up, and the game camera continued to follow him, turning into a normal player control camera.

[Go to the entrance of the cave and watch the night with Zhang Da. 】

This time, the message did not appear above Su Tong's head. Instead, it appeared in a line of small words in the upper right corner of the screen.

"The first mission, go and have a look." Barlow pressed the handle and manipulated Su Tong to go outside the cave.

At the entrance of a hole, there is a pile of charcoal that is slightly lit, and it seems that it has been raised to keep warm.

"Captain Su, you are here." Zhang Da sat on the stone platform at the entrance of the cave, and fiddled with the charcoal pile with the wooden branch in his hand to prevent it from emitting too bright light, thereby revealing his whereabouts.

When Barlow saw a △ circle on Zhang Da's head, he knew that there was going to be a conversation next.

After pressing the button, Su Tong sat directly next to Zhang Da, and then the game perspective changed to a dialogue perspective, mainly showing Su Tong's face and Zhang Da's face.

"It's coming, what's the news?" Su Tong asked.

Zhang Da continued to fiddle with the charcoal pile, and replied: "It's nothing, this is not a wild forest, and there are not even any larger wild animals."

"Tomorrow we will pretend to be merchants. Both you and Ge Shuhan are proficient in Khitan, so it depends mainly on you two." Su Tong said, and mentioned tomorrow's plan by the way.

Zhang laughed and said, "That's for sure, it's not the first time we've done this."

After finishing speaking, Zhang Da raised his head and looked at the starry sky, his expression became a little gloomy, probably recalling some past events.

Su Tong also raised his head and uttered a curse word, saying, "I've been in this wretched place for five years. It's really enough."

"Captain Su is from Wannian County, and he will go to Chang'an City to be an official if he changes his job in the future. I'm afraid this kind of scenery will be missed if you just take a look at it." Zhang Da said, turning his gaze to the south again, and there was a gleam in his eyes. Longing, it seems that there is someone or something that he has been thinking about for a long time.

"What? Thinking of that one at home again?" Su Tong asked, with a teasing smile on his face.

He closed his wide-open eyelids shyly and said, "I haven't been back for a long time. I don't know if the old woman pulled the baby."

Su Tong picked up the water bag and took a sip, and said, "After these two days are over, I will ask General Price to give you a month's leave, and you can go back to Silla to have a look."

"Thank you, Team Su." Zhang Da became happy, and immediately got up to salute Su Tong.

Only then did I realize that Zhang Da was not very strong, but his body was relatively slender. His waist was not wide but his arms were very long.

Such a figure, coupled with his familiarity with the Khitan language, and his pair of single eyelids, completely explained that Zhang Da was not from the Tang Dynasty at all, but an authentic Silla native.

As Su Tong spit out the word 'Silla', a line of reminders appeared on the left side of the game screen.

[Press the control panel to open the entry. 】

"Huh? And this system." Barlow immediately clicked happily on the control panel, which is the big button in the middle of the PS5 controller.

Immediately, the entire game changed face and became hazy. Although the screen was still moving, what was displayed on it was a line of introduction and a large 3D model of the whole body, which was slowly rotating.

The text next to it carefully introduced the origin of Silla people like Zhang Da, who was the elite archers of Silla recruited by Datang.

By the way, the upper-level menu next to it is also cold, and it is divided into categories of [Character], [Allusion], [Story], [Architecture], and [Country].

Barlow has been attracted by this one-shot lens. He didn't expect the game interface at all. When he saw such a detailed entry menu, of course he returned to the previous level and started to check the above introduction one by one.

"Yes, very detailed, and the history of the Korean Peninsula is so interesting."

Barlow nodded.

Anyway, it was a historical subject, and it was all about Silla. Of course, Chen Tiancai asked the copywriters to write more, which roughly explained the history of the entire Korean peninsula.

Generally speaking, I explained Sanhan, and then introduced it from the country of Goguryeo to the end of the Lee Dynasty in North Korea.

Chen Tiancai learned this function from "Assassin's Creed". At the beginning, he was also obsessed with this function. He watched almost every one of them step by step. It can be said that while playing the game, he let the teacher, Big Tudou, teach many foreign countries. history.
