Nightmare Lord's Virtual Game

Completely cancel the save and load system?

After thinking about it, Zhang Xingyu felt that it was not possible.

Baldur's Gate is very large and complex. Some choices may affect the plot later, especially when the player has played for dozens of hours and suddenly regrets something he has done and wants to start over, but finds that he has to start the game again...

Two words -

Despair!

From the perspective of increasing the difficulty of the game and the sense of immersion of the players, canceling the save and load system is simple and convenient, just like when the player travels to the world of Baldur's Gate, he only has one life, so he will naturally play carefully.

However, this is not a real travel after all, but a game. Therefore, while considering the realism and immersion of the game, Zhang Xingyu also has to consider the gameplay!

For such a large and complex game, if the player has no chance to regret... this is too inhumane!

Not to mention, Zhang Xingyu also added a special game mode, [In-depth Role Playing Mode], to the Nightmare version of the game. This difficulty requires more from the players. If you are not careful, you may encounter difficulties and lose all your previous efforts. Therefore, you still need to have a way to regret.

The save function needs to be available, but players cannot use the save system at will. In response to this problem, Zhang Xingyu has made many attempts, and 060 Mengmeng has also helped conduct a large amount of data testing.

For example, the initial idea was to learn some Japanese games, and save can only be done in a fixed place... It was quickly rejected because Zhang Xingyu felt that players would often go to save through the teleportation function... Not only wasting time, but also abusing the save function!

Limit the number of saves... This method is better than the previous one, but how to set the number of saves is a difficult problem. Even if the setting is good, if the player saves frantically in the early stage, resulting in the inability to save at the critical moment later... That is also very bad!

So, after a round of brainstorming, it became what it is now: you can save, but saving requires resources, and resources can be obtained during the game. Because it is a hardcore game, you cannot save during combat, which effectively increases the difficulty...

The name "save and load" looks very 1OW, and finally Zhang Xingyu changed it and turned it into a "fate system". Hmm, doesn't it feel very magical and fantasy?

Not bad!

However, if the fate system is simply save and load, then other players may ridicule this system as a vest for save and load...

——It's just a skin for save and load after taking such a high-sounding name?

It's better not to change the name!

This is very likely to happen. For this reason, Zhang Xingyu also added additional functions to the fate system. Reversing fate is a very practical function in the fate system... If you fail to steal something, you can regret it. Come and reverse your fate. Don't keep saving and loading!

Other functions include destiny exploration and destiny interference. For example, destiny exploration is a function that is solved later.The exploration system of the lock improves the player's exploration ability. The nightmare version of Baldur's Gate has added a lot of new things, and the exploration gameplay has been greatly increased. However, some exploration puzzles may be very difficult. At this time, players can consume a certain amount of fate to obtain clues.

In order to further strengthen the balance of the fate system, Zhang Xingyu also added a setting that continuous use of the fate system will increase the consumption of the fate thread, which can not only effectively prevent players from saving files continuously, but also stop the use of reverse fate to perform some indescribable high-difficulty behaviors (stealing all the merchants, etc.).

So, instead of saving and reading files, the fate system with other usage functions was added to the game. The game world of magic and fantasy is easily related to fate. Many fantasy worlds even have goddesses of fate, so this system is still more stylish. Zhang Xingyu also tried his best to design this system useful and interesting.

……

"We have 100 fate threads, which can record fate once... But now the automatic fate record has been carried out. It seems that there will be a big battle ahead. It is likely to be the last battle of the prologue and the key to successfully escaping from the Nautilus. Are you ready?" asked Zhang Xingyu, the captain of the team.

"OK, I just entered the recovery station to recover, my health and skills are full~"

"Ready."

"Master Xingying, please watch my performance!"

"Okay, let's go!"

After getting ready, everyone entered the room in front of them that exuded a strong atmosphere.

Everyone was shocked as soon as they entered.

The battle between the mind flayer and the evil demon was unfolding inside. The battle was extremely fierce. A mind flayer pounced on the back of a Cambion, tied the Cambion's head with its head, and then bit the back of Cambion's head - for the mind flayer, the brain is their most delicious food!

Being brain-sucked to death is probably one of the most horrible deaths. Cambion screamed.

Cambion is a medium-sized demon, slightly taller than humans, with long sharp horns on its head, and huge bat-like wings are their proud parts.

This is a cold-blooded and corrupt alien creature. There is a saying that describes the Cambion: They crawled out of the womb to spread corruption to the multiverse!

A Cambion with its wings spread flew in from outside the spaceship, holding up its spear, like a flying arrow, and jumped down from a high altitude, directly piercing a mind flayer!

A mind flayer noticed the new enemy and directly launched a powerful mental blast. The new Cambion fell straight to the ground. Then, before the mind flayer was happy, several little devils and local wild boars continued to beat him, and the mind flayer also fell.

Obviously, the battle was already blood-thirsty and the battle was very intense.

The mind flayer is a very powerful race, especially its psychic ability. It is born with powerful psychic abilities, which makes the mind flayer a must-see for countless adventurers.The monster that scared the wind, however, the mind flayers here were in a passive position.

There were too many demons, and they kept coming!

The most important thing was that the spaceship was not working and was about to crash. Now was not the time to fight!

At this time, a mind flayer noticed the players who broke in, and immediately ordered: (To read the exciting novel, go to Faloo Novel Network!)

"Slave. Connect the nerves of the transmitter. We must escape. Act now!"

Zhang Xingyu and the other six people were implanted with mind flayer tadpoles. To the mind flayers, they were undoubtedly slaves.

"Do it, and we will decide how to deal with this ghaik (brain-eating bastard) after we escape!"

"Connect the nerves, connect them." The brain-eating monster "we" also said.

Cambion commander Zarke fought with the mind flayers, and there were also several Cambions fighting with the mind flayers along the way, and there were also little demons flying in from outside!

The scale and number of battles far exceed those in the original "Baldur's Gate 3". Can Zhang Xingyu and others get through the chaos, pass through the front line, and control the spacecraft to escape from here?

The countdown begins:

300 seconds!
